Army Worm Seems
to Have Done His

Devastations by the army worm in i
Harrisburg to be practically at
an end for this year. During the incur- I
sion of the black pest the past several i
days, lawns in nearly all sections of,
the city have suffered. Soon after the !
worm appeared and the Telegraph
printed instructions as to how to set
rid of the pest, drug stores did a rush

An Easy Way to
Increase Weight
Good Advice for Thin Folks
The trouble with most thin folks who
wish to gain weight is that they Insist
on drugging their stomach or stuffing
tt with greasy foods; rubbing on use
less "flesh creams," or following some
foolish physical culture stunt, while the
real cause of thinness goes untouched.
You cannot get fat until your digestive
tract assimilates the food you eat.
Thanks to a remarkable new scien- !
tlflc discovery, it is now possible to I
combine into simple form the very ele
ments needed by the digestive organs
to help them convert food into rich,
fat-laden blood. This master-stroke of
modern chemistry is called Sargol and
has been termed the greatest of flesh
builders. Sargol alms through its re
generative, re-constructive powers to
coax the stomach and Intestines to lit
erally soak up the fattening elements
of your food and pass them into the
blood, where they are carried to every
starved, broken-down cell and tissue
of your body. You can readily picture
the result when this amazing transfor
mation has taken place and you notice
how your cheeks fill out, hollows about
your neck, shoulders and bust disap
pear and you take on from 10 to 20
Jiounds of solid, healthy flesh. Sargol
y absolutely harmless, inexpensive, ef
ficient. G. A. Gorgas and other leading
druggists have It and will refund your
money if you are not satisfied, as per
the guarantee found in every package.
Caution!— While Sargol has given ex
cellent results In overcoming nervous
dyspepsia and general stomach troubles
It should not be taken by those who do
not wish to gain ter\ pounds or more.

To Discard Freckles,
Tan, Pimples, Wrinkles
The use of creams on the face
sometimes causes hair to grow. You
can avoid the risk of acquiring »u
-perfluous hair by avoiding. cosmetics
and using mercollzed wax instead.
There is nothing better for any condi
tion of the skin, as the wax actually
absorbs the offensive cuticle. The lat
ter Is naturally replaced by a clear,
smooth, healthy complexion, full of life
and expression. It's the sensible way
to discard a freckled, tanned, over-red,
blotchy or pimpled skin. Get an ounce
of mercollzed wax at any druggist's
and apply nightly like cold cream,
erasing In the morning with soap and
water. It takes a week or so to com
plete the transformation.

Harrisburg School Sketches
BY .1. HOWARD WERT
No. 7—Early Hlsh School Crnriu ates. How the Hnrrlshurj* Schools of
1871 Compared With the City's Other Developments. The Mulberry
Street Schoo[house Which Became the Harrisburjj Hospital
j The last number of this series pre
sented some very surprising figures
| showing the contrasts between the
I Harrisburg public schools of to-day
land those of forty years ago. Indicat
ing forcibly how wonderful has been
' the growth and development in that
Itlme. These figures were especially
remarkable in regard to the high
'schools of the'city.
But yet more remarkable is the fact
that the commencements, which form
Iso prominent and enjoyable a part of
each school year, were substantially
unknown as an Institution of the
town up to 1874; for, in that year,
for the first time, there was a grad
uating class from the Boys' High
School. This class numbered two, the
young men being J. Henry Spicer and
Samuel N. Diven.
From the Girls' High School classes
had been graduated In 1858, 1863,
1866, 1867, 1870, 1872, 1873, the-whole
number of graduates In these classes
aggregated forty. The exercises, how
ever, attracted little attention or popu
lar interest until the first joint com
mencement of the two schools was
held In 1874. From this time on they
became a prominent feature of the
educational life of the city, becoming
more elaborate and attracting greater
and still greater attention every year.
If space permits I hope to have some
thing to say of some of the features
and Interesting points of these com
mencements before closing this series.
Harrisburg Forty Yearn Ago and Now
But to prevent any misapprehension,
let it be said that the Harrisburg of
1874 was fully abreast educationally
with the Harrisburg of 187 4 In other
respects. 1874 is not so long ago.
Only forty years have Intervened. I
meet on the street every day many
men In the prime of life and business
activity who were then school boys.
I meet some, who aro yet hale and
good for many years of usefulness,
who were already prominent in the in
dustries and professions of the city
In 1874.
Let us for one moment recall what
the Harrisburg of 1874 was in other
lines outside of school work, and you
will then not be surprised at the great
contrast between the educational
equipment then and now.
In 1874 there was no telephone ex
change In Harrisburg, for there were
no telephones; and their convenience
heing unknown, they were not missed.
I All type In newspaper offices was la
boriously set by hand, letter by letter,
for the ingenious linotype machinery
of to-day was unknown. In 1874 elec
tric lights existed not and the city
fathers thought the big iron posts
from which gas Jets endeavored to
illuminate the murky night the height
, of progress.
In 187 4 Harrisburg was not only a
very small, but a very dirty city. There
were no street sweepers for there were
no paved streets. The citizens staidly
and solemnly accepted the alternate
mud unfathomable and dust unbear
ble, for twelve months of the year, as
a wise dispensation of Providence
against which It would be Impious to
rebel. And when, years later, the
paving of the City's main thorough
fare was undertaken, the fossils of
that day, who were a numerous clan,
sought to prevent It by suits innumer
able. In 1874, along Market street
and in Market Square, wooden shan
i lieu, venerable in their decrepitude,
was the prevailing style of architec
ture.
Hnrrlslmrg- Street Travel 40 Years Ago
In 1874 letters were written by hand
with pen and ink, consequently pen
manship had not then become a lost
art submerged beneath the wave of
expeditious work In dictating to a
bright girl who banks the keys of a
typewriter at so much per. But if
the Harrisburg of 187 4 had no tele
phones, no linotype machines, no elec
tric lights, no paved streets, no type
writers, it at least had street cars.
There was a line which ran from
near the Pennsylvania Railroad tracks
up Market street to the Square, and
then, reaching Third street by way of
Second and Walnut, went up the first
mentioned thoroughfare as far as
R.eily. It had been constructed dur
ing a spasm of enterprise near the
close of the Civil War. A branch at
Third and Verbeke streets, running
alongside the uncompleted stone mar
.kethouse to Ridge road (Sixth street),
had led Camp Curtin way. Bm, with
the abandonment of that rendezvous.
It was found unprofitable and aban
doned, and subsequently the tracks
were torn up.
Tt was an odd kind of a diminutive
bob-tailed car that hauled the citi
zens of that day over the Third and
Market street lines, —or at least those
of them that had plenty of leisure.
If a man was In a hurry, he generally
walked. The motive power of these
queer cars was horses and mules In
various gradations of laziness, cussed -
ness and emaciation. In front of the
car sat a driver with almost any kind
of a bean-pole, ox-goad or sapling: that,
whacked across the backa of the
brutes, would be perwuaalva In Induc
ing locomotion.
The man who got on In the morning
at Broad street oould have his paper
read and digested by the time he
reached Market Similarly with the
evening paper on his return. In 1874
the awesome and evfl-amellhig old
"Camelhack," replete with assaults
and robberies, was the only means of
communication between Harrisburg
and the Cumberland county shore.
Many more illustrations of the changes
of forty years might be given, but
enough has been said to show that
the Harrlsbunr schools of 1874 w*re
fully abreast of the other develop
ments of the Harrisburg of that
period.
The Mnlberry Street Public School
Something has been said In previous
number* of some of the school build
ings which existed In 1874. Before
concluding the series I hope to Bpeak
of others. But I wish now to say a
few words about one that had dis
appeared from the roll a short jfme
before.
When, a little past the middle of
the last century, the South Ward of
Harrisburg grew tired of log huts on
back alleys for schoolhouses and, un
der the leadership of Valentine Hum
mel, began to assert Itself, its school
board erected a fine two-story brick
school building In Mulberry street near
front. Then the South Ward began
Ito put on airs, and, truth to tell, It
was a very superior school structure
;as things then went In the towns of
' Pennsylvania.
[ But presently things were not so gay
Iby half, for the trains of the Cumber
land Valley, and Northern Central
Men's $1.50 Stiff Tr?
Hats 75C
Railroads thundered by Its doors—and
that was an age when railways tvere
setting busy. Soon It became evident
that the site was a deal more suit
able for hospital than school uses, for
patients are not expected to lejive
their cots for the purpose of murder
ing themselves beneath locomotives,
but It Is not near so safe to gamble on
frisky urchins of from 6 to 12 not
doing so. So the Mulberry street
school building hecame the nucleus of
that magnificent institution, the Har
risburg Hospital.
