To Hades With
Mustard Plasters
That's what Chemist Begy said
When he first started to make his mar
velous Mustarine now used in over a
million homes in the United States.
BEGY'S MUSTARINE is the old
fashioned Mustard Plaster brought up
to date with all the dirtiness and blis- (
ter taken out.
Thousands of physicians prescribe!
It to end Chest Colds, Sore Throat, |
Pleurisy, Bronchitis and Tonsllitls over |
night.
It's so easy to use; just rub it on |
when you have a splitting Headache
or Earache, Toothache, Neuralgia or
Backache and it draws out the terrible
agony in a few minutes.
People who suffer from Rheumatic
Pains, Swollen Joints, Sore Muscles or
Neuritis can get blessed relief in only I
a few minutes.
It's so cheap, too; a big, yellow box'
for about 25 cents, and all druggists
will praise it and recommend it.-—Ad

THURSDAY EVENING
NEW TRIAL FOR CLAY.
WIGGINS MID WEILS
Case Must Be Retried, Superior
Court Decides in Opinion
Today
j A new trial was awarded Henry
I Clay, former director of public safety
of Philadelphia. John R. Wiggins and
Wlllard H. Wells, convicted of con
spiracy to defraud the city In contracts
for buildings, by the Superior Court
to-day. Judge William D. Porter wrote
the opinion, Judge George B. Orlady
filing a concurring opinion and Judge
John Head filing a dissenting opinion,
in which President Judge Charles E.
Rice joined.
The opinion was given at the close
of the session of the Superior Court
in this city and Is one of the most
voluminous handed down in many
months. The appeal was from the de
cision of Judge C. B. Staples, of Mon
roe county, specially presiding, refus
ing a new trial, and the opinion says,
in part: "The most flagrant instance
of imposition on the city disclosed by
the evidence arose out of the manner
In which the contracts for the' erec
tion of the police station, tire station
and garage at Third and Race streets
were manipulated."
Then follows a review of the evi
dence presented at the trial on this
contract, with exhaustive review of
testimony about others, and It is stated
that the facts as to all contracts were
fully and fairly stated by Judge Sta
ples. Then the opinion says: "The>
testimony clearly established that the
amounts paid to Wiggins & Co. and
received by Mr. Wiggins and Mrs.
Walls as officers of that corporation
upon each of these contracts were
grossly excessive." The Sanderson
and Snyder cases in the Capitol series
are cited in the discussion of the con
spiracy trial, the opinion saying fur
ther: "The charge of the court to the
jury in the present case was in most
particulars correct arid many of the
assignments of error are without
merit. When, however, the learned
jndpe proceeded to instruct the jury a-s
to the legal principles applicable, un
der the evidence, to each of the indi
vidual defendants, respectively, he
failed to discriminate between the
functions of the court and those of the
jury and thus fell into error."

j Tiie young man's condition became
worse, and his father, who was called
to York yesterday, entertains little
hope for his son's recovery. Superin
tenden Meixell Is married, bis wife for

RIVER MAY BREAK RECORD
FOR I,ATE "CLOSED" DATE
Only twice in the last forty-four
years has the river been closed later
than this date. In 1872 it was closed
until March 23, and in 1907 until March
14. This year the prospects are that
the ice will not go out for several days,
at least, and one of these records wll
be broken.
A high area of pressure coming from
the Northwest brought the cool
weather of this morning, sending the
.mercury to 17 degrees last night. Clear
weather, with rising temperature, will
come to-morrow, and it will be warmer
for the remainder of the week.

Sure Way to Regain
Robust Bloom of Youth |
»
A smooth, velvety-soft skin, with a
delicate peach-like bloom. Is one of the
Creator's most exquisite works. When
the first blush of youth is over, this
beautiful tint and satiny lustre are
rarely seen. How to preserve them—■
that's the question. Famous beauty ex
perts abroad long have known that or
dinary mercolized wax works wonders
in this direction. It actually gives a
new surface to the skin, restoring that
marvelous girlish color and softness in
a remarkable manner. An ounce of
this wax, procurable at any drugstore,
will convert a faded, freckled, worn
out or discolored complexion into one
of captivating loveliness In less than
two weeks. No special skill is neces
sary in applying the wax, it being
smeared on at niglit like cold cream
and washed off in the morning.
To remove wrinkles, or delay their
Tormation .a face bath made by dis
solving 1 oz. powdered saxolite In
pt. witch hazel, will be found wonder
fully efficacious. This tones up relaxed
skin, causing it to remain firm and
smooth.—Advertisement.

New York Division Will Get Im
provement First; Means
Large Expenditure v
■ With a view to preventing future
: trouble, similar to that experienced by
'the Pennsylvania railroad during th'o
| blizzard one week ago, the board of
directors yesterday authorized an ex
penditure of $1,000,000 for an under
; ground wire system on the New York
• division; and gave notice that similar
j Improvements would be made in the
j near future on the •main line, start
ing with the Philadelphia division.
| The order of yesterday covers a
! stretch of roadbed twenty-five miles
Un length between Trenton and Rah
! way, N. J., where many wires were
| blown down during the blizzard, and
| the worst trouble was experienced.
; Following the completion of the New
| York division improvement it is said
work will start on an underground
I system on the Philadelphia division
I near the Gap, and at Dillerville June
! tion, where there are many tracks,
i switches and surface wires,
j The directors, at their meeting yes-
I terday, decided upon this step, which
! will be an Innovation in railroad con
struction here or abroad.
| The operating department of the
1 Pennsylvania Railroad Company be
lieves that if the trains and snow
plows can be kept in constant move
ment no fall of snow that ever has
been experienced in this section could
block the tracks. The trouble in last
week's storm, and on similar occasions
In the past, the operating officials say,
was due entirely to the fact that the
frequent stops of plows and trains,
made for safety's sake after the dis
patching and signal apparatus was
disabled, permited time for impass
able drifts to accumulate.

Corsets—You Must Lie
on Your Back and
Wiggle Into Them
Special to The Telegraph
Philadelphia, March 12. Dr. Maude
L Dunn, the lecturer on eugenics, after
shooing all the men out of Wltherspoon
Hall yesterday told an audience of wo
men about the evils of tight corsets.
"You can't be a smiling sunshine in
your home when your corset presses
against you," Dr. Dunn told the several
hundred women. "Husbands are Just
like cats. They want lots of petting,
and if they don't get it at home they
will go elsewhere—and your worst
enemy will be the woman who hasn't
any pressing corset."
Dr. Dunn wasn't absolutely against
corsets. But she wants them loose.
She suggested that the one way to
ascertain if a corset is Just about right
is to take physical culture exercises
while wearing one. She also said there
was but one way to put on a corset,
and that is while lying Hat on the back
and wiggling the toes in the air.
The expert prophesied a race of slant
shouldered, big hipped women if the
tango and the debutante slouch are in
dulged in excessively. She said the
body is the temple of the soul and
should be treated that way, and that
the perfect body is 5 feet 8 Inches in
helgth, 27 Inches at the waist line and
the hips measure 41 inches.

Dr. Aked Tells Why He
Left Baptist Church
Special to The Telegraph
San Jose, Cal., March 12.—1n the
attempt of a minority of the Los
Gatos Baptist Church to oust its pas
tor, the Rev. Robbins Whitaker, Dr.
Charles F. Aked told as a witness why
he left the Baptist Church.
"Did you leave the Baptist Church
because its laws are so free?" he was
asked by Judge Welch.
"I left It because the combined ge
nius of John D. Rockefeller and my
self was insufficient to change the
geography of Manhattan Island," he
replied. "Because we could not llnd a
site," he added, when the laughter
subsided.
"Didn't you have money enough?"
asked the Judge.
"We had lots of money," retorted
the witness; "what we lacked was
brains enough."

Why Doctors No Longer
Claim to "Cure" People
A few years ago it was a common
thing for the family doctor to say, "1
will cure you In a few days." This
cheerful prophecy often gave the pa
tient new hope and courage, but it is
no longer good form. Doctors still
"cure" malaria and a few other
troubles in which their medicines have
a direct or "specific" action on the
virus »f the disease. In other cases
they simply give supporting medicine
and keep up the strength of the pa
tient until nature effects a cure.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cure chlo
rosis and other trouble due to thin
blood because the have a specific ac- i
tlon on the blood, building it up, puri
fying and enriching It. This direct I
action on the blood alsc# makes them I
the best supporting and strengthening
medicine. If you are thin and weak,
breathless after slight exertion. If you
have palpitation of the heart, gas on
the stomach, cold hands and feet, if
you are nervous and easily Irritated
and show other signs of weakened
vitality, try these strengthening pills
at once and let the rich, red blood
cure you. Get a box to-day at the
nearest drug store and begin at once
to build up your health. Write now
to the Dr. Williams Medicine Co.,
Schenectady. N. Y„ for the free book

Thin People
Can Increase Weight
Thin men and women who would like
to increase their weight with 10 or 15
p J? un . ? , ot healthy "stay there" fat
should try eating a little Sargol with
their meals for a while and note re
sults. Here Is a good test worth trying.
First weigh yourself and measure,
ioursell. Ihen take Sargol—one tablet
With every meal—for two weeks. Then
weigh and measure again. It Isn't a
question of how you look or feel or
what your friends say and think. The
scales and the tape measure will tell
their own story, and most anv thin
man or woman can easily add from five
to eight pounds in the first fourteen
days by following this simple direction.
And best of all, the new flesh stays
put.
Sargol does, not of itself mnVe
but mixing with your food, it turns the
fats and sugars and starches o t
1 you ha.e eaten, into rich, ripe fat pro
ducing nourishment for the tissues and
I b . P re Pares it in an easily as
i siinilated form which the blood can
i readily accept. All this nourishment
passes from your body as waste.
But Sargol stops the waste and does
! it quickly and makes the fat producing
! contents of the very same meals you
' are eating now develop pounds and
pounds of healthy flesh between your
i skin and bones Sargol is safe, pleas
jant, efficient and inexpensive Geo. A.

MlffiT BRUSH OR
WASH OUT DANDRUFF
Tlie Simplest and Quickest Way Is to
Dissolve It
The only sure way to get rid of
dandruff Is to dissolve it, then you
destroy it entirely. To do this, get
about four ounces of ordinary liquid
arvon; apply it at night when re
tiring; use enough to moisten the
scalp and rub it in ently with the
finger tips.
Do this to-night and by morning
most if not all of your dandruff will
be gone, and three or four more ap
plications will completely dissolve and
entirely destroy, every single sign and
trace of It, no mater how much dan
druff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy, lus
trous, glossy, silky and soft, and look
and feel a hundred times better.
If you want to preserve your hair,
do by all means get rid of dandruff,
for nothing destroys the hair more
quickly. It not only starves the hair
and makes it fall out, but it makes
It stringy, straggly, dull, dry, brit
tle and lifeless, and everyone notices
it. You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. It Is Inexpensive and
never fails to do the work.—Adver
