faded that you do not think it worth
while to have it cleaned. But, you
know, we can dye It almost any de
sired color and make It just like new.
If it is still serviceable, though soiled
or faded, send It to us. the old reli
able cleaning and dyeing establish
ment. Compton's, 1006 North Third
street, branch 121 Market street.
YOUR NEW HOME
Young folks who start housekeeping
in June should be sure to start right

topsy-turvy. Begin right by sending
for the Troy laundry wagon. Either

what puts Simms' custom clothing in
favor among men "who care." 22

to read or look at some other small
object without glasses and note the
wrinkles and frown and crowsfeet that
uppeared and increased in depth as
he increased his efforts to see? How
about yourself? Which would you

FEET AT BRIG6S ST.
[Continued from First Pago.]
morning in Council chamber, that it
was unfair to interfere with the con
struction of an addition to the silk
mill at this time; that it would work
a hardship on the company, and that
it might result in the removal of a
valuable plant from Harrisburg. In
giving the side of his company Mr.
Forsch said, in part:
Mill Owners' Viewpoint
"We have been given a permit for
the erection of a new building. Ma
chinery has been ordered and a con
tract given out three weeks ago is now
in operation. This improvement will
cost between $40,000 and $50,000. We
understand that to go ahead with the
improvement now would mean paying
of damages by the city. Furthermore,
if we were stopped in the construction
of the new building, it might necessi
tate the removal of this part of the
Industry to another city.
"The people who want the street
opened complain that our mill is noisy
and that they do not want a mill there.
The buildings now standing were
erected seventy years ago. It has been
an industrial plant that long. People
who are complaining came since the
mill was erected. They knew it was
there, and if It was a too noisy neigh
borhood, why did they build?
"What we want you to do is to say
whether we can go ahead or must quit
and go elsewhere. It was a question
whether we would spend $50,000 in
Paterson, N. J., or in Harrisburg. Your
city offers the best inducement in'help
and facilities. We are willing to meet
the city half way and do everything
that is fair, but we want to know
where we stand in this deal."
Expect Amicable Adjustment
-City Solicitor Seitz stated that he
was present as the personal legal rep
resentative of Councils; that it was
simply a conference to ascertain what
the opinions of the representatives of
the silk mill firm and that the people
representing a respectable community
were desirous of having the street
opened.
Mayor Royal called attention to the
ordinance, which only provides for the
placing of the street on the official
map between Front and Second
streets, and said the city did not want
to lose the silk mill as an industry.
The Mayor was of the opinion that an
amicable adjustment might be reached.
Following a conference of the silk
mill officials Mr. Forsch announced
that he was ready to make a propo
sition to the city. He said that the
firm would agree to turn over to the
city ground now owned by the com
pany for a twenty-foot street. In re
turn the Bilk mill company was to be
permitted to go ahead with the Im
provement, and in the event of Briggs
street being eventually opened as a
sixty-foot thoroughfare the silk mill
company would have a right to claim
damages for the entire width.
This proposition will be put in writ
ing and taken up at a conference to
be held two weeks hence. Property
owners will be invited and allowed to
be heard in their behalf. The silk mill
representatives also agreed to hold off
on the Improvement until June 20.
MISS PRUDEVCE YESSLER
Miss Prudence Yessler, aged 51. died
this morning at her home, 418 South
Seventeenth street. The body will be
taken to York for burial.

LIN9LESTOWN TO
GET MORE SERVICE
Bell Telephone Will Erect a Pole
Line to That Part of Lower
Paxton
The Bell Telephone Company has
notified the Public Service Commission
that a sufileient number of subscribers
in the vicinity of I..lnslestown has
been secured to warrant the construc
tion of a pole line. This will enable
the company to furnish service to Hor
ace A. Keefer and others who com
plained to the commission some time
ago that they were unable to get a
connection.
The Home Water Company, of
Royersford, informs the commission
that people are using water motor
washing machines without permission
and wants to know if a penalty of $5
or $lO be imposed on those who clan
destinely use the water whether this
penalty would be approved by the
commission.
In reply to a query of Norman M. D.
Crawford, president of the Reading
Transit and Ught Company, the coun
sel of the commission advises that no
ruling has been made on the subject
of free transportation for charities.
He is informed that the commission,
however, is bound by the terms and
provisions of the law as it finds it de
clared by the Constitution and by acts
of Assembly; and ,in view of these
provisions of the fundamental and
statutory laws of the State, the com
mission would seem to be without au
thority to rule that the free transpor
tation referred to may lawfully be
accorded.
