Big red scaly blotches be gan to appear on his and his face was covered with unsightly pimples which disfigured his looks to a marked degree. lis was always picking or scratching Ms face which made things worse He was always tearing and scratching his skin from the excess Itching and burning sensation caused by ■ the disease. The boils of his face and head were very sore, being very much inflamed, j They festered and came to a white head, j He was peevish and as cross as he could be. j His sleep was broken and restless, as he was ■ always twitching and turning In the bed. i I bad vo carry him around In my arms.

Inspector Boyer made his March ( report to the County Commissioners to-day and among the miscellaneous ! Items tested were thirteen sets of j counter tacks. These tacks are pressed ; into the counters of various country j stores and are supposed to be a yard 1 apart, thus serving for measuring ; cloth, etc., instead of a yardstick.

MAIL CLERK CLINGS TO DENIAL IH BIGj MAILSTHEFT CASE Believed in Many Quarters That Accused Is Victim of Circum stantial Evidence ! Sitting in his cell in the Dauphin | county prison this morning William I R. Baum, the postal clerk accused by | the postal authorities with the theft of $20,000 from the registered mails. ; denied that he is the thief, j Subjected to a severe sweating last ! night by the post office inspectors, I Baum answered every question but j absolutely refused to confess to any guilt. The inspectors finally left the i jail with no more evidence than when they entered. The inspectors have ■ admitted that Baum was arrested on i evidence that is almost entirely cir j cumstantial. Baum gave notice to-day that he had retained Frank E. Ziegler and Edward E. Beidleman as his counsel, I and tl.at they would answer for him lin the future. Efforts were made to | day to secure bail for Baum and it was expected that the necessary *lO.- 1.000 would be forthcoming late this afternoon, or early to-morrow inorn | ing. In view of the fact that Baum, who has always been held in the highest esteem by his acquaintances, is be lieved by his personal friends to be a victim of circumstantial evidence, the young rnan is receiving much sym pathy in many quarters. Those who know Baum claim that he has always llted a quiet, frugal life and while working in the baggage room at the Pennsylvania railroad station, had made money on an investment In a building association. Postoffice Inspector Herbert Lucas and other inspectors left Harrlsburg to-day. Before their departure they gave out the statement that nothing new In the way of evidence had been discovered. They said their efforts until April 9, when Baum is to be given a hearing before Commissioner Wolfe, will be devoted to getting in touch with the various witnesses. State W. C. T. U.

CLUB HAS BANQUET Opening Gun of Campaign Is Fired at Pleasant Annual Social Function rat WILLIAM M. HAROEBT The sixth annual dinner of tliej West End Republican Club, held In the big dlningroom of the North Third i street clubhouse last evening, was the! largest and most enthusiastic greet ing in the history of that live-wire organization. Not only was the din- Ingrooin titled to overflowing, but there were tlfty guests who could not procure seats and who dined together] when the prettily arranged tables had I beeri reset especially for therri. President H. A. Douglas introduced AVilliani SI. (largest, Assistant Attor ney. General, as toastmaster, at the opening of the dinner and he an nounced that he would follow the Ger- . wan method of speaking and eall on 1 the guests between courses. Among those who responded were W. Harry Baker, who brought a message from State Republican Chairman William H. Crow; Superintendent W. B. Me-, Caleb, of the Pennsylvania Railroad; James H. Craig, Deputy Secretary of i Internal Affairs; Representatives! Wiidman and Dickinson, State Senator | Beidleman and E. J. Stackpole. Trend of National Affairs The speeches all took a serious turn. The speakers dwelt upon the trend of national sentiment back toward the Republican party and Republican principles. Every one of them was optimistic as to the future of the, party and the llberul applause that 1 greeted the points they made showed I I very conclusively that the big audi ; ence was with them to a man. Mr. Baker was tirst introduced, spr the reason that he had a business en i gagement to meet, and said that he | brought to the West End Club the best wishes of State Chairman Crow and a message of good cheer. Chairman Crow believes that there is a big Re publican victory in store for the party this Fall, but that this result largely ! depends upon how earnestly each Re publican throughout the Common wealth puts his shoulder to the wheel between now and election day. Mr. Stackpole dwelt at length upon the failure of the Wilson adminis tration at Washington and upon the hypocrisy of the State Democratic ma chine In its loud protestations of virtue while its agents have gone about the State selling post offices to the highest bidders. Mr. MeCaleb Speaks One of the most striking remarks of the evening was made by Superin tendent MeCaleb, who said: "X feel pretty strongly just now along po litical lines, but I do not believe it would be well for me to say what X think at this time. Some day soon I may And it necessary to hire a hall, bar out reporters and then tell my friends just. what I think. Certainly it behooves us to dwell deeply upon the kind of men wo send to office. They should be honest and fair In their dealings both toward employer and employe. Ido not hesitate to say that the men who served the city in House and Senate last session of the Legislature were such." Speeches by Deputy Secretary Craig and Representatives Wiidman and Dickinson followed. Mr. Wiidman and Mr. Dickinson will in all likeli hood be candidates for re-election to tne Legislature and Mr. Dickinson iti his remarks dropped a hint to that effect. Senator Beidleman on Kunkcl Senator Beidleman brought the speechmaking to a close with an ad dress that brought the diners to their feet In a wild cheer for Judge Kun kel, who, the speaker said, is certain jof nomination as candidate for the ' Supreme' Court bench. Judge Kun ikers popularity in the West End Club !was well attested by the applause that greeted Senator Beldleman's reference to his candidacy. Letters of regret wore road from Governor Tener and his private sec- I retary, Walter 1... Gatthcr, and a mes | sage came from Congressman Krelder l saying that the vote on the Panama toils bill detained him in Washington. Kurzenknabe's Orchestra rendered music during the dinner, which was arranged by the following committee, the members of which were heartily congratulated upon the success of the 'affair: President H. A. Douglas. Vice- President T. B. Marshall, Secretary C. J. Zimmerman, Treasurer H. W. Mil ler. Trustees W. D. Sheesley, C. G. Sollers and C. V. Brasliears, and Rob (ert Thornton, steward. j Ulttl.S ARK I'AI.I.IIEAHERS Six friends of Miss Ethel Helem, who 'died last Sunday at her home, 2146 !

Market St. Crowds Cheer as Folks Are "Fooled" In the presence of more than two hundred men, women and children, lined on both sides of the street in front of a Market street department store an "April Fool" joke was pulled off at noon to-day by several boys. A pocketbook and a string did the work. Wo one end of the string was tied the purse which laid on the pave ment and the other end was tied to one boy's foot. Tho string was hidden in a crack in the pavement. As a sucker stooped down to pick up the purs© the youngster pulled his foot and the purs« flew away. The lads stood for more than an hour and "April fooled" more than fifty people while the crowds cheered. WITLI, SHAD RUN? WHAT!

GRANDMA USED SAGE TEA TO DARKEN HAIR She made up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to bring back color, gloss, thickness. Common garden sage browed Into a heavy tea with sulphur and alcohol added will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and lux uriant, remove every bit of dandruff, stop scalp itching and falling hair. Just a few applications will prove a revelation If your hair is fading, gray or dry, scraggly and thin. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at homo, "though. Is troublesome. An easier way is to get the ready-to-use tonic, costing about 50 cents a large bottle, at drug stores, known as "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy," thus avoiding a lot of muss. While wispy, gray, faded hair is not sinful, we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attracUve ness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur no one can tell, because it does it so naturally, so evenly. You Just dampen a sponge or soft brush with It and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning all gray hairs have disappeared, and., after an other application or two, your halt becomes beautifully dark, glossy, soft and luxuriant. —Advertisement.
