HARRISBURG WOMAN FINDS QUICK
RELIEF FROM STOMACH AILMENTS
■-lary Wheeler Gains in Weight
After Taking Mayr's Won

Mary Wheeler, of 706 Green street,
flarrlsburg, Penna., for a long time
was a victim of stomach disorders.
She tried many treatments and found
nothing that could help her.
At last she came upon Mayr's Won
derful Stomach Remedy and quickly
found herself on the way to health.
Bhe wrote:
"I received your wonderful stomach
remedy. I took it and it acted just as
you said It would. I had suffered with
my stomach for nearly a year and
doctored all the time. The first dose
of your treatment gave me relief. I
feel like new. I had awful distress
after eating and suffered from bloat

saining in weight and can eat any
thing."

r [This is the first of a series of ar
' tides written by L. H. Kinnard, well

1 systems of tins country turned over to

otates, on tne same uate, averageu one
I teiepnone to every twelve innaouanis.

Wnat ao these percentages which
: are aiso computeu as ot January, itfll
® show'.' Cei tainiy the comparisons uo
5 not indicate that private enterprise is
less successful than Government own
ership in extending Hie oroad use of
the telephone. For even with our rela
r, tively sparse and scattered population,
" the United States has set a standard
s, of development which none of the Gov
ernments of Europe has even approach
-1 ed; and that the service is of vastly su
perior quality in this country, even the
" most ardent exponent of Government
" ownership will not dispute.
y Telephone Development
s Considering the telephone develop
, ment of the large cities—lt Is an es
I t&blished fact that only one European <
I city, Stockholm, is able to boast of the
number of telephones per hundred
I population that Philadelphia is, where-
I as Philadelphia, New York, Boston, Chl
i cago and Pittsburgh all show a vastly
l more extensive use of telephone service
! —determined on the same percentage i
basis—than any of the great metro
politan centers of Europe.
Nationally and locally the great era'
of expansion has hardly begun. The
wonderful growth of the Bell system,
| which has jumped from 200,000 tele
phones in 1890 to over 8,000,000 to-day,
has not even yet progressed half way
towards the goal upon which every
Bell executive and engineer is now
I focusing his thought and effort. I
i Nor will the balance of the way be
all easy traveling. The course has been
surveyed and staked out by these tele- '
phone specialists, with every confidence
that the continued support of the pub
lic—both in its patronage of the ser
vice and in the supplying of additional
capital for extensions—will endure just
so long as an effleint and comprehen
sive service is maintained at rates that
are reasonable. Continued progress is
thus guaranteed to the American peo
ple under the existing order of things.
Great Work KnUangrrrd
The advocates of Government owner
ship, nevertheless, would turn over this
gigantic task to the Post Ofiice Depart
ment —would take from trained hands
the advancement of this most exacting
public service, in the expectancy not
only that it would be maintained at its
present standard of quality and avail- \
ability, but that even faster progress I
could be made.
That this is within the realm of I
probability there would seem to be I
grave doubt. The people of this coun- |
try have before them, however, the ex-i
perience of the past in every county
. where Government ownership of the
[ telephone systems has been attempted.
. "he testimony of this experience can
not be weighed too carefully in reach
ing the decision which the people alone
. can make.
