■The Simple, Safe, Sure Use of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
Will Bring Joy to Any
Stomach Sufferer In
an Easy, Comfort
able, Dietless
Way.
How many quiet, afraid-to-make-a~
noise, unhappy homes there ore due to
cross. Irritable, miserable, close-that
kltchen-door kind of dyspepsia suf
ferers. Such men and women cannot
help their peevishness for they suffer
terribly and should not be censured.
A stomach that Is irritated, raw,
rebellious and not fit to do Its work Is
certainly the cause of constant drag
ging down and even excruciating
agony.
It is a feeling surpassed by no other
illness known to man.
No one should blame such a person
for 111 temper and silent moodiness.
Ever and always is that dead, gone,
sour tasting feeling at hand to curse
every waking hour.
Dyspepsia, bad breath, gastritis, ca
tarrh of the stomach, pains in bowels,
nervousness. heartburn, belching,
bloating, etc., come from wrongful
conditions of digestive juices. There
Is nothing to correct these horrors
until these juices are again replen
ished.
When the system exhausts its juices,
when the liver, when the pancreas, the
stomach become thereby unfit to fur
nish the proper digestive fluids, one
cannot expect this same system, with
out aid, to do anything else than keep
on making their improper digestive
products.
Such a condition means all manner
of suffering, and unquestionably fatal
dapger lurks in such delay.
There Is relief in Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets that means a restoration to
normal health, a building up of correct
digestive juices and an absolute harm
lessness in the method and its result.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain
qualities in Just the right proportion
to build up the weakened gastric Juice.
When the tablet reaches the stomach
it readjusts matters quickly, balances
acids and alkalies and stops pain, suf.
ferlng, etc.
Other ingredients have just as im
portant effects upon the Intestines as
well as the stomach and thus in a re
markably short time stomach ills, in
digestion, etc., disappear.

iAN APPRECIATION OF
I THE REV. JOEL SWARTZ D. D.
• The papers are announcing the death of the Rev. Dr. Swartz at 86 years of age. He was a
great and a good man. My acquaintance with him, and with the acquaintance the most
friendly relations, began in 1868, when we were both pastors in the city of Willlamsport, Pa.,
nnd continued to the present. For two years he was associated with me on the editorial start
of The Church Forum. At the age of 79 he furnished for that periodical the following poem.
It appoared in the Poet's Corner of the April number of 1906. It occurred to me as sin
gularly appropriate for the columns of the Telegraph at a time when so many ministers are
seen in our streets and so much Interest Is felt by old and young as to what manner of men
may fill our pulpits during the ensuing year. It Is titled
THE MINISTER'S "DEAD-LINE"
A Meditation at Seventy-nine
Joel Swartz
"The dead-line" I've heard but
never have found it;
What destiny draws It,
What self lapses cause It
Or shape it or drape It
So one may escape it
I know not, though must have
passed over or 'round it.
If pastor shall touch it, the par
ishes shun him
When seeking a preacher
Or up-to-date teacher.
But lest they should grieve him.
They pass by und leave him.
Because, It Is whispered, "Gray
hairs are upon him."
(Hos., 7-9.)
Ah! Is there concealed in this
honorable whiteness
A sort of "live wire,"
Surcharged with quick fire
Which works such disaster
For people and pastor
And cuts fhem asunder because of
Its brightness?
This "dead-line," I fancy, what
ever may trace it,
Is shifting and hazy
And twisted and mazy.
So, whether most real
Or simply Ideal,
We still are quite puzzled to name
or to place It.
Not age or gray hairs, not the
people themselves
Can surely assign It
So It seems there is a possible
we dig a pit for others and then
conference stood and sang one verse of i
"We Shall Meet Beyond the River."

The officers of the conference were
named and elected as follows: J. F.
Anderson, of Milton, secretary, who
named as his assistants E. R. Heck

How to Destroy
the Dandruff Germ
BY A SPECIALIST.
That the dandruff germ is responsible
for nearly all the diseases to which the
scalp is heir, as well as for baldness
and premature gray hair, is a well
known fact, but when we realize that
It Is also indirectly responsible for
many of the worst cases of catarrh and
consumption, we appreciate the Import
ance of any agent that will destroy its
power. We art* therefore, particularly
pleased to give herewith the prescrip
tion which an eminent scientist states
he has found, after repeated tests, to
completely destroy the dandruff germ
in from one to three applications. It
will also almost Immediately stop fall
ing hair and It has In numerous cases
produced a new hairgrowth after years
of baldness. This prescription can be
made up at home, or any drugpist will
put It up for you: 6 ounces Bay Rum,
1 ounces Lavona de Coinposee. one-half
drachm Menthol Crystals. Mix thor
oughly, and after standing half an hour
It is ready for use. Apply night and
morning, rubbing into the scalp with
the tlnger-tlps. If you wish it per
fumed, add 1 drachm of your favorite
perfume. While this preparation is not
a dye it is unequalled for restoring
Bray hair to its original color.—Adver
tisement.

consisting of M. L. Ganoe, W. A.
Houck, W. R. Whitney, Joseph Gray
and Owen Hicks, bearing on the chap
laincy in the army, navy and national
guards of the United States.
The hours of opening and closing
the business sessions of the conference
were fixed at 9. and 12 o'clock, re
spectively.
I'ass Resolutions
J. F. Anderson read and the con
ference heartily adopted the following
resolution:
"We, the members of the Central
Pennsylvania Conference, assembled in
Grace Methodist .Episcopal Church,
Harrlsburg, March 18, 1914, desire to
express our pleasure at the presence
of our esteemed bishop. Earl Cranston,
D. D., LL. D., who comes to us for
the fourth time to preside over our!
conference. With deep and genuine
affection we welcome him as a brother
beloved and an honored servant of
the church. We are grateful to a kind
Providence that has kept him in
strengh and enabled him to efficiently
discharge the arduous duties his high
office exacts.
"We assure htm of our hearty co
operation in the responsible task that
has been assigned him. We shall ever
pray that these days in which we shall
meet together may be fruitful in bless
ing to the Methodism of this city as
well as to our sister denominations
and also a lasting Inspiration to the
churches. Also that we appreciate the
generous hospitality of this church and
its honored pastor, Dr. John D. Fox,
in inviting us to hold this session of
our conference in their midst."
B. H. Mosser, as secretary of the
bishop's cabinet, read the following
names of members of the conference
who were referred to the committee
on conference relations: F. C. Buyer,
Isaac Heckman, I. J. Reeser and T. S.
Faus.
On motion of the Rev. H. L. Jacobs
the conference ordered a committee of
five to be appointed, one from each
district, on periodicals, and the book
concern. Conference adjourned to
meet at 2 o'clock to hear the mis
sionary sermon.
This evening at 7.30 the anniversary
of the board of home missions and
church extension will be observed. The
Rev. F. H. Brunstetter, of Shamokin,
will preside and an address will be
delivered by the Rev. Ward Piatt,
D. D„ of Philadelphia.
Missionary Sermon
"God was in Christ reconciling the
world unto Himself," was the text
used by the Kev. Allen C. Shue, of
West Fairvlew, who delivered a mis
sionary sermon this afternoon. The
Rev. Mr. Shue is probably the young
est man that ever delivered the mis
sionary sermon before this confer
ence. He said: "Life is incomplete
without fellowship with God; that
this was the primitive state of man,
but the fall of man meant an es
trangement from God. The problem
of reconciliation, he declared, is the
greatest one that can engage the at
tention.
The message of the speaker was
that through Christ Heaven's gate is
swung wide open'. This message, he
asserted, Is for all conditions, classes
and places. Upon us rests the re
sponsibility of giving this message to
every creature. Human messengers
must reach a human world.
Carrying the Message
The speaker emphasized the thought
of carrying the message to all the
world. The first work of a Christian
missionary is telling the story of the
cross. Paul is the example in preach
ing. The various forms of^missionary
activity were dwelt upon, especially
the mission schools which a few years
ago numbered twenty-nine thousand
of which thirteen hundred were of the
higher grades with a total enrollment
of 1,304,905 pupils.
He pointed out that literary work
is another duty of the missionary. He
said further that medical work finds
its example in the great Teacher; but
that all such agencies are simply a
means to an end; that the true mis
sionary brings the message of recon
ciliation.
Mission Society Anniversary
The anniversary of the Home Mis
sionary Society of the conference took
place last evening at 7:30 o'clock.
This is a comparatively new organi
zation of the conference, its purpose
being to help the weaker charges in
the matter of ministerial support.
James M. Barker, a layman this
city, delivered an interesting address
treating the subject from the lay
man's point of view. He emphasized
the Inadequacy of ministerial support.
He said: "A young man enters one
of the so-called secular professions or
callings with a meager education, but
rises in the course of eight or ten
yoars to a position in which he com
mands a salary of from three to four
thousand dollars, while the young man
who prepares for the ministry must
spend three or four thousand dollars
to secure his education and then re
ceives only eight or ten hundred dol
lars per year or possibly rises later on
to a salary of fifteen hundred or two
thousand dollars. This is tho reason,
hairs can Impair.
The promise is given to every saint
Who waits on the Lord,
And feeds on His Word,
Drinks deep of Life's springs—
He'll rise upon wings.
Nor, running, grow weary, nor,
walking be faint. (Isa. xl, 31.)
Rich fruit and abundant shall
crown his old age.
His branch shall be rife
With sap of young life,
And when he is old
God's apples of gold
Shall hang o'er the "dead-line"
which limits his stage.
(Ps. xcii, 14.)
If worldly-wise churches such pas
tors decline
Whom God hus ordained,
Enriched and sustained
In answer to prayer,
Then let them beware
Lest somewhere lie hidden for
them a "dead-line."
Let pastors and people in prayer
unite
To ask of the Lord,
As taught in His Word,
For reapers yet more
To gather the store
Where summer rolls golden and
harvests are white.
(Luke x, 2.)
GRANDAEVUS.
is for ministers. Let us beware lest
fraternally,

we do not have more candidates for
the ministry.
"Gn the other hand, the preacher
over emphasizes free salvation. Peo
ple are taken into the church with
that understanding, and therefore, are ,
not useful to the church, because of,
this creed. Greater efficiency In the
pew is to be secured by a thorough '
education of the pew on the part of ,
the ministry. The do, dare and give j
side must be brought out. Preachers ;
are.now working out plans and men
are not only dedicating their souls, but .
themselves and their posessions."
Dr. E. H. Yocum then delivered a'
strong speech on the same subject,
stating that the work of the society is
twofold. It's work is to do some
thing for the support of the pastors
and the church.

Passing Impressions of Finance
By Louis Guenther
Editor of the Financial World
Fear is the greatest enemy seeurlty
owners have to cope with. Some one'
of Importance says something detri
mental about a stock or a bond, and,
pell-mell, Investors, without thinking,
assume there exists a concealed condi
tion of rottenness and they scurry to
get from under. This sort of flight
out of their Investments occurred
among the road's security-holders as a
result of Commissioner Harlan's criti
cism of the St. Paul's methods of
bookkeeping. All the security-holders
could see in their panic of fear was
another 'Frisco or Hock Island affair,
and they hastened to unload so as
not to be caught in the swirl of liq
uidation. It was a slaughter of the
Innocents for neither the road's of
ficers, directors, nor its bankers were
the sufferers, as they knew that Com
missioner Harlan criticised the meth
ods of a by-gone period, and in no
way brought into question the com
pany's solvency or its prosperity. The
feeling Is growing that the Interstate
Commerce Commission should so word
Its criticisms that the effect would not
be to needlessly frighten investors—
the Commission was not created for
I that purpose.
Considerable amusement was af
forded Wall Street bankers, who are
familiar with Samuel Untermyer's
never-ceasing activity as counsel for
reorganization committees, by the
pointed questions of Senators Hitch
cock and Weeks, when Untermyer as
sumed the role of protector for the
people before the Senatorial Commit
tee hearing expert evidence on the
Owen measure to regulate speculation.
Senator Hitchcock asked Mr, Unter
myer about some of his own experi
ences with the Wall Street game, and
finally extracted from him an admis
sion that if his transactions were
wrong they were mistakes due to his
inexperience and youth. Untermyer
has grown wealthy from fat legal fees
earned as counsel for corporations in
distress, and cannot be classed as a
novltate. Roth Senators Hitchcock
and Weeks seem to thing Untermyer
has a personal grievance and is utiliz
ing the radical element in Congress
to serve his own purpose, rather than
the best interests of the public.
For some people there Is a great
deal more money to be made out of
reorganizing big corporations, than in
creating them. If this were not true
fewer corporation lawyers would make
their headquarters in Wall street.
Within the narrow confines marking
the boundaries of our financial district
there are more lawyers to the square
foot than on any other prescribed spct
in the United States. They all seem
to make good money acting as coun
selors to the "financial doctors," usual
ly self appointed, to attend to the ills
of embarrassed corporations, while the
security holders are the ones who pay
their fat fees. A committee was
formed only a few weeks ago to look
after the Interests of bondholders rep
resenting an issue of in excess of $70,-
000,000. The fee each bondholder will
have to pay Is five dollars for each
thousand bond, or one-half of one per
cent. Yet this apparently small fee
will aggregate $350,000 for the entire
bond issue; a pretty stiff sum to divide
among six or seven committee mem
bers and attorneys. I cite this instance
as an Illustration of many similar in
stances.
| New Haven was helped by the ad
mission made by Morgan & Co. that
'the profits It made from handling the
I road's securities over the space of
nearly twenty-five years, was less than
| $400,000 though during that time it
'sold securities amounting in all to
• nearly a third of a billion dollars. Mor
gan & Co. also categorically disclaimed
that the firm or any of Its eight mem

Rut the Morgan statement will not
settle the controversy which has been
raging about the New Haven. It re
lates only to the firm's connection with
the system as Its bankers, and throws
no light on the now famous Account.
No. 2, with its $11,000,000 which the
New York World and the Interstate
Commerce Commission declare has
vanished in thin air. Nor does the
Morgan statement offer any explana

for which the Commission has been on
a still hunt for some time. President

Agricultural lmplememnt stocks
have suffered materially from the
financial troubles of the M. ilumclv

Harvester common $6; Rumely pfd.
$57, common SO3; Studebaker common

International Harvester preferred
which lias gone up over $8 a share
witijin the year. The dlfTcultles thi.«
class of companies has to contend
with, is in the keen competition for
business resulting in an extension of
liberal credit to farmers accepting
notes, the collection of which Is slow.
As a result of such credits the com
panies tind themselves short of work
ing capital.
A direct appeal to the public for
capital has again vindicated itself by
the success of the Third Avenue Rail
road in selling a new issue of $4,000,
000 bonds. President Whitridge wish
ed to do this financing at the least
expense to the company, so ho invited
bids by advertising, with the result
that the issue was subscribed four
times over. If a corporation has B
good security it can sell it, banker or
no banker. Massachusetts has sold
her bonds over the counter, so have
the cities of Baltimore and Chicago.
While It is not as rapid a process as
getting a check from a banking house,
the plan nevertheless is as effective.
Bankers, however, in the end, are the
most economical, as they co-operate
with corporations when the financial
skies are clouded as well as when the
goose honks high and securities may
readily be sold.
President Schwab's role of Gloomy
Gus was not supported very well by
the earnings of the Bethlehem Steei
as It earned nearly 30 per cent, for
the common last year. At this rate
any one can afford to play the role of
a prophet of evil. Schwab's pessimism
may have been put on for effect to in

with the duties on steel products.
George Westinghouse will always

Keep this perfect stomach doctor In
your home —keep It handy—get a
large fifty-cent case from any drug
store, and then if anyone should eat
something which doesn't agree with
them; if what they eat lays like lead,
ferments and sours and forms gas:
causes headache, dizziness and nausea;
eructations of acid and undigested
food—remember as soon as Pane's
Diapepsin comes in contact with the
stomach all such distress vanishes.
Its promptness, certainty and ease in
overcoming the worst stomach dis
orders is a revelation to those who
try it.—Advertisement.
