DUST IS MUSE OF
MUCH SICKNESS
Dr. Dixon Issues Some Timely
Hints Regarding the Care of
the Nostrils
The part dust, plain ordinary street
dust, plays In carrying disease is
shown by State Commissioner of
Health Samuel G. Plxon in dne of his
weekly talks on health. The doctor's
remarks are interesting because they
show how minute particles may cause
sickness and death.
The commissioner says:
"The hot, dry winds of August eddy
ing through the city streets and along
the country roads, will carrying every
where clouds of dust. It is the pet
abomination of housewives and their
Instinctive dislike is well founded, for
in the city streets each tiny particle
that Is blown about may be a raft
which bears the minute disease-pro
ducing organisms which we call germs.
"The means by which many of our
contagious diseases are transmitted
have been discovered to be through
personal contact or through insects
which carry the disease germs from
| the sick to the well. While the an-
I cient theory that plagues were trans
j initted by the air has been disproved
Iby the investigations of modern sci
ence. a dtist-laden atmosphere may be
responsible for spreading certain infec
tions. Experiments have shown that
some of the germs of communicable
disease die under brief exposure to the
sun's rays. Others are less suscepti
ble and thrive for a certain length of
time amid the tiny particles of dust.
The germs of tetanus or lockjaw are
found in roads and about stables, and
if the tiny particles of dust carrying
these germs are introduced into a
wound, tetanus is apt to result.
"In the sputum of a sufferer from
tuberculosis, in the dust of the streets
or sidewalks, we often tind the tu
bercle bacillus, the germ responsible
for consumption. We have reason to
believe that the germs of smallpox
and possibly pnumonla may also be
transmitted in this way.
"Dry sweeping of the streets with its
accompanying clouds of more or less
Infected dust, and the dry sweepings
of buildings may be a possible source
of disease Infection. In many of the
European and in some American cities
the streets are washed every day. This
is a sanitary measure of no little im
portance and should be followed wher
ever possible. Dry sweeping and dust
ing with the old-fashioned duster
should be abolished.'
When Swatting Flies
Don't Use a Butcher Knife
While swatting flies-in Gordon's gro
cery store. Cameron and Cumberland
streets, with a long-bladed butcher
knife, yesterday afternoon. John Schan
er. aged IS. of 1002 Cumberland street,
accidentally let the knife fall across the
palm of his right hand. He was taken
to the Harrisburg Hospital. It required
three stitches to close the wound.
PAYTAXG PARK
The Kuma Japanese Troup clearly
proved their right to headline honors
at the Paxtang Park theater last even
ing. The Kuma Troup consists of a
Japanese woman, man and a very
clever child. The child sang in a pleas
ing manner and was the hit of the act
in spite of the fact that the other two
members of the troup did some ex
cellent magic and acrobatic work. Two
of the magic stunts were particularly
mystifying and had the audience gues
sing.

When anyone sees a dog act billed
on a vaudeville program they usually
feel like getting up and going out-to
"see a man," but Mrs. Daugherty and
her troup of twelve white poodles
quite dispelled all of our ill feeling!
toward canine actors. The little fel-|

furnish a great entertainment. Wheth-|

VT THE r.VLACE—MARY PICKFOHII
IN "THE EAGLE'S MATE"
In "The Eagle's Mate" Mary Pick
ford portrays the fascinating charac
ter of little Anemone. From her peace
ful little valley home, Anemone rises to
great heights, and In the stress of that
mounting, realizes the earnest self-sac
rifice for love.
The Mornes, of Virginia, are a law
less mountain clan, who dwell on a
nearly inaccessible peak, called the
Kagle's Eyrie, and because of their
craggy abode, are called the "Eagles."
Lancer, son of the leader, has been to
college by Anemone's aunt, Mrs. Breck
enrldge, who is a Morne herself,
though Anemone is. ignorant of this
fact. Lancer's father is arrested for
moonshlnlng, and Lancer leads the clan
to the rescue of his father, joining the
Mornes in their lawless life in the
Eyrie. Fisher Morne, the cousin of
Lancer, falls In love with Anemone, and
being repulsed by her, carries her off
to the Eagle's Eyrie. When Anemone
finds Lancer at the Eyrie, she begs him
to save her and send her back to the
valley. Lancer tells her he intends to
have her for himself, fights Fisher for
her, and conquers. Lancer replies that
he will never speak a word of love to
her until she asks him to, and they
live in the Eyrie as strangers. Fisher
shoots Lancer and lays the crime on
Anemone. Anemone learns that the
sheriff is leading a posse up to the
Eyrie to attack the Mornes. and she
returns to lead the clan against the
representative of the law, for she has
learned to love Lancer. She reaches
the clan In time, and the baffied posse
returns. Anemone's aunt comes to the
Eyrie, shows them the folly of out
lawry and its Inevitable end. The
Mornes promise no longer to rebel
against their State. Lancer and his
bride begin their honeymoon in the
Eyrie, and Anemone is at last truly
happy as the Eagle's mate. Adver
tisement.
DO MODERN DANCES
MAKE WRINKLES?
Tt Is strictly a newspaper notion
that because the dances of the day
are strenuous they develop signs of
age. Worry and carelessness may
make wrinkles, hut the activity of
clean dancing never! Wrinkles are
dtie more to improper care of the
skin, neglect and too strenuous men
tal activity. They may he avoided or
cured by using a simple protective
and stimulative vegetable cream jelly
before retiring. Just get one ounce
of almozoin from your druggist—dis
solve it in % pint of water and, be
fore retiring, cover the wrinkled sur
face with this cream, which dries
quickly and both protects against the
night air and draws the skin smooth,
will not grow hair and Immediately
forces the blood to build out the flesh
so wrinkles disappear.—Advertisement
