Avoid Danger of
Blood Infection
Get Your Blood Strong to Resist
Daily Perils
. A host of people have thanked their
lucky star to have used R. S. S. for
the blood instead of those dangerous
drugs such as mercury, calomel, arsenic,
etc. It Is an easy matter to get the
blood poisoned from contact with disease
germs. The}' lurk In almost everything
we touch or handle and a slight scratch
or skin abrasion is often the gate of
entrance for a vast army of germs. If
the blood is impure, if pimples, bolls,
eczema or other eruptive conditions make
the skin a danger spot use S. S. S. at
once and fortify the system. Get your
blood strong and full of red corpuscies
to renew tissue health. Let S. S. S. keep
down tendency of all germs to multiply
and your skin will soon renew itself.
These facts are explained in a beautiful
book Just Issued and will be mailed free
by The Swift Specific Co.. 110 Swift
Bldg., Atlanta, Ga.
Get a bottle of S. S. S. today of any
druggist but insist that you will have
nothing else.
For more detailed directions write the
Medical Dept.. as suggested In circular
around the bottle.

GANYMEDE GETS A
DOG LICENSE HERE
| Owner Tells Clerk How He Came
to Give Hound Name of
Olympian Cupbearer
Ganymede yesterday got his 1914
dog license.
Unlike his famous namesake who
had a splendid pull, personally and
politically, with these "higher up"
on Olympus, Ganymede of this tale
of the dog license bureau hasn't
much in the way of lineage to boast
of; his only claim for newspaper
space to-day is the fact that his name
is Ganymede, the way he came by
it, and the fact that he got a license
yesterday.
As is pretty generally known, Gany
mede, was the official cup-bearer on
Olympus, had. as it were, the same
job as the inodesi Johnny or Mary
of to-day who carry the tin bucket
and a dime to Joe's place on a hot
night.
Therein lies the cause for the
christening of Ganymede as related
yesterday by a proud owner. When
"Gany" was very youthful and play
ful his owner gave a little party, out
along the old Pensy canal bank far
from the modding crowd. Ganymede |
was not yet named and his owner de- I
cided 011 the spur of the moment to j
make, the affair a christening party. !
Just what to call him was a puzzle!
for awhile; then the christenee him- •
self decided. Nearby was a tin buc-'
ket, a 2-puart affair, and a dime. He
went over took the kettle in his
and started in the direction of Joe's
place. (It really wasn't Joe's place, '
but that doesn't matter,) so they all
chipped in and got together enough
to get a full quart of the stuff; the!
christening party was held; and Gany
mede came into his own.
Gangmede? Oh he's just a plain or- j
dinary dog. a hound dog at that. 1
and as for lineage, well, that, as Mr. ;
Kipling would say it is another story, j

AT THE PHOTOPLAY
Anita Stuart to-day will be seen in
"The Million Bid," a five-reel Vita
graph drama of unusual interest. This
film was used to open the Vitagraph
Theater in New York and ran for over
100 performances. The story tells of
a young girl whoee money-loving
! mother takes her abroad in order to
; separate her from a young doctor
j whom the girl loves. While away they
I meet an Australian millionaire, whom
the mother thinks would make a de
sirable son-in-law. The daughter at
first refuses the millionaire, but, being
persuaded that the doctor has for
gotten her, the girl finally consents to
become the Australian's wife in name
> only. The honeymoon is spent on the
| young coupe's yacht. There is a col
lision in a fog and the yacht is
wrecked. The young wife is rescued
by a large steamer and is brought to
America. Her husband, who in the
wreck received a severe blow on the
head which completely destroys his
memory, is picked up by some French
fishermen. Later the wife again meets
1 'he young doctor, now a famous brain
specialist, and she, believing her hus
band to be dead, marries th«? doctor.
A few years later her first husband
comes for an operation to restore his
lost memory. The young wife rec
ognizes him and begs her second hus
band not to perform the operation,
but he, not knowing the truth, insists
on doing so. The operation, however,
proves fatal to the Australian and he
dies, leaving the young wife to her
happiness with the man she adores.—

J. P. Morgan and McAdoo
Confer on Gold Supply
Special to The Telegraph
Washington, D. C., Aug. 21. J. P.
Morgan, accompanied by William Por
ter, vice-president of the banking firm
of J. P. Morgan & Co., arrived in
Washington yesterday and went im
mediately from the railroad station to
the Treasury Department, where they
were in conference for an hour and a
half with Secretary McAdoo.
The principal object of Mr. Mor
gan's visit to Washington was to dis
cuss with Secretary McAdoo and the
Federal Reserve Board the means of
conserving the gold supply of the
United States. Europe Is demanding
gold for all debts owing there by
Americans and bankers are beginning
to feel the pressure of the demand and
are making efforts to meet the drain
on their gold. Every resource is be
ing employed among American bank
ers to save the gold on hand. It was
said at the Treasury after Mr. Mor
gan's visit that, so far as the control
of the situation of the influence of the
creditor class in the matter of the
demand for gold in liquidating obli
gations may be concerned, the Treas
ury Department is helpless. The gov
ernment can only assist by using cur
! rency everywhere possible in place of
gold, so as to help maintain the supply
to the banks.
The policy of the administration is
to expedite the shipment of our grain
to Europe and thus pay maturing
debt with wheat. In this way, it is
contended, gold will be kept at home
and every obligation met fully within
a few weeks. The estimate is that in
the next ninety days there will be
come due $130,000,000, whtchc Ameri
can bankers insist should be paid in
gold. The administration estimate is
that within the same period the
United States, if its commerce over the
Atlantic is restored, will put Europe
in our debt to a much larger amount. '
In the meantime, it was said, it was
financial wisdom to keep our large
gold supply unreduced if possible. It
is understood that a tentative plan of
relief was agreed on, but treasury
officials declined to furnish any de
tails.

Americans on Vessel
Which Was Hit by Shell
Special to The Telegraph
Halifax, N. S.. Aug. 21. —More than
fifty American citizens, hurrying back
to their native land, their holiday trips
in England cut short by the outbreak
of war, arrived here to-day on board
the Allan liner Mongolian, reporting
exciting times.
The Allan liner was making her way
up the Mersey river, August 5, to load
freight at Liverpool for Halifax. Due
to a misunderstanding at one of the
river forts a shot Intended to stop a
Norwegian bark which did not have
her colors flying was fired at the Mon
golian, which had been passed by the \
authorities and was flying signals to
that effect.
The shell struck the Mongolian in
the forepeak and passed through the
starboard side and out of the portside.
Fortunately the gunner's altn was low.
Had the shell struck the Mongolian
ten fete higher it would have passed
through her forecastle. In which were
a number of the crew, off duty at the
time. It was not until four days later
that the Mongolina's damaged plates
were property replaced and she was
able to nut to sea.
Kaiser to Sheath Sword
Only With Great Victory
London, Aug. 21.—A Marconi wire
less message from Berlin tells of the
German emperor's farewell address to
the first regiment of foot guards. They
had assembled, the emperor said, to
pray that the German arms might be
blessed, so that they should be able
to keep flying the flag af the father
land over the envy of its enemies, even
if this entailed the sacrificing of the
last drop of German blood.
The sword which he had allowed to
remain In Its sheath decade after dec
ade, and which he now drew, must de
cide. He declared it could not be
sheathed again without victory and
honor. This war found the nation
trusting In Alighty God aand remem
bering the glorious days of old.
The commander of the regiment re
newed the oath of loyalty and pro
claimed the regiment's unquenchable
thirst for victory.

AT PAXTANG
One of the many vaudeville features
of the week that every one who ap
preciates this sort of entertainment
should see is Fredo and Primrose at
the Paxtang Park Theater. These two
musical comedy favorites present one
of those classy littlo offerings in which
they sing selections from the leading
musical successes and introduce sev
eral character studies of well-known
types. The impersonations are re
markably clever and their singing
above the average. The rest of the
bill makes a particularly pleasing sum
mer entertainment. No place of
amusement in this locality is quite so
comfortable these warm evenings as
the big open-air theater at Paxtang.
No matter how large the crowd, one
never feels that sense of suffocation
that one feels in an enclosed building
in warm weather. There- is a certain
satisfaction in being able to sit out a
performance comfortably and at the
same time get the wholesome benefit
of the cool country air.
