CULLS REPORTS OF
TREATMENT PULSE
[Continued From First Page]
Mrs. George B. Kunkel and son Lewis,
118 Locust street.
Mrs. Graybill's story is as follows:
"On our passage over a wireless
message was received stating that the
crown prince and princess of Austria
had been assassinated. This was our
first intimation that all was not peace
and harmony in Europe. During our
stay in Brussels on July 22 we saw
what we thought was a military pa
rade in honor of the lord mayor of
London's visit to the city. Since see
ing the mobilization of troops in other
cities we think that Belgium was mo
bilizing at that time. At Wiesbaden
on July SO we learned that war had
been declared between Austria and
Servia. We feared we would have
trouble in reaching Berlin, as the cars
would be needed for transporting the
soldiers. We had no trouble, however,
and reached Berlin on the evening of
July 31. Everything was commotion
and soldiers everywhere. Bulletins
were being thrown out from auto
mobiles every hour. The next morn
ing the city was in a ferment and
Increasing all the time as a new bulle
tin would be issued. The depression
around the hotel affected all. The
third call for troops had been made
and manager, stewards and waiters In
our hotel went one after the other.
During the night the tumult Increased
and on all sides was heard the na
tional songs.
"We soon found on Sunday morn
ing that the situation was grave in
deed and our American ambassador.
Judge Gerard, issued special passports
for us. A notice in the embassy stated
that only one more day would be
Discolored or Spotty
Skin Easily Peeled Off
The freckling, discoloring or rough
ening to which most skins are subject
at this season, may readily be gotten
rid of. Mercolized wax, spread lightly
over the face before retiring and re
moved in the morning with soap and
water, completely peels off the disfigur
ed skin. Get an ounce of the wax at
any druggist's. There's no more effec
tive way of banishing tan. freckles or
other cutaneous defects. little skin
particles come off eaiji day, so the pro
cess itself doesn't even temporarily
mar the complexion, and one soon ac
quires a brand new, spotless, girlishly
beautiful face.
Wrinkles caused by weather, worry
or illness, are best treated by a simple
solution of powdered saxollte, 1 oz.. dis
solved In hi pint witch hazel. Bathing
the face in this produces a truly mar
velous transformation.—Advertisement.

given foreigners for leaving the city.
Our conductor, Mr. Dixon, decided
that It would he better to leave that
night, so he engaged compartments
for us. Our immediate party con
sisted of twelve people, but he had
managed to get together two other
wings of the Bartlett party, so In all
we numbered thirty.
"At the station in Berlin baggage
was piled two stories high and instead
of securing our reserved car it was
each one for himself, hand baggage
included. It was Impossible to get a
porter, so we were obliged to carry
our own hand baggage or leave them
behind us. Each one of our party
.succeded in getting, or scrambling,
on the train and happy if we had an
end of a suitcase to sit on during the
night. Many were obliged to stand
the entire night. The train was sup
posed to go direct to The Hague, but
at Rhein. on the German border, we
were hustled into another train and
our haggap" examined by the custom
officers. There we left our trunks and
thought wo would not see them again.
"At Oldensall. on the Holland bor
der. we were invited out again and
passed through the custom house. We
were here for six hours, not knowing
or having any satisfaction as to when
we would get away. At last a train
came and we thought our troubles
were over and now we would surely
get to our destination, but at Amerrs
ford the train stopped, each door
thrown open and we heard 'heraus.'
The train was immediately filled with
soldiers and we waited patiently for
hours when a train took us to Amster
dam, and another train, the last one,
as we heard later, took us to The
Hague. We arrived here at 10 P. M.
after a journey of twenty-el,.ht hours
and having one meal during that time.
It seemed like going home when we
reached the Believtie Hotel, which we
had left only a short time before. We
felt, like the Hugenots, that we had
reached a haven, and although the
mobilization of Holland's soldiers took
place the next day we felt no fear,
only protection.
"There seems to he a general belief
that Americans were not treated with
proner respect and were even brutally
treated. As far as we could see, ail
officials were very courteous. True,
some were not over obliging, but we
must remember that everything was
upset and out of the ordinary. Surely
none of our party had any fear for
their personal safety. It was largely
a matter of Inconvenience and hard
ships. Our ambasaador, Judge Gerard,
and Mr. Van Dyke were particularly
active and thoughtful for all.

Local Suffragists Ask
For More Old Metals
Considerable quantities of old gold
and silver has been sent this week to
the Central Pennsylvania Woman Suf

by this one society to Chicago netted
about $125, while a goodly sum was
also sent to the Philadelphia mint.
The articles will be sold to local jew
elers to help swell the home treasury.
It is hoped that enough will be realized
in this manner to obviate the neces
sity of having any entertainment this
fall.
Many people have promised old
thimbles, cuff buttons, spoons, old
rims of eyeglasses and various odds
and ends of no use to them but quite
valuable to the society. The officers
urge that these be sent promptly to
105 Locust street that the treasurer
may know exactly how much money
is coming in in this manner.

changes, it Is expected, will go Into
effect about September 1 and the new
general manager of the Harrisburg
company will be here within a few
days to look over the plant and be
come acquainted with the big force.
At 11.30 o'clock this morning the
board of directors met in special ses
sion and discussed the details incident
to the coining of Mr. Kaltwasser.
No Action by Commerce Chamber
Mr. Tripp will continue to serve as
a director and vice-president of the
company, visiting Harrisburg from
time to time to review the operations
of the local concern, and in view of
the fact that he will not definitely
sever his connections with Harrisburg,
It is unlikely that any action relative
to the presidency of the Chamber of
Commerce will be taken by the direc
torate of the organization until after
the annual election of directors in Oc
tober. Mr. Tripp when elected in Jan
uary was chosen to serve until the
annual meeting of the directors, and
this was set at the time for October.
Mr. Tripp's offices will be at fil
Broadway, New York. The United Gas
and Electric Is one of the most effi
ciently operated utility organizations
in the country, and it has companies
in Altoona, Buffalo, Terre Haute, Ind.,
New Orleans, Houston, Texas, Lancas

rado Springs, Elmlra, N. Y., Hartford,
Conn., Knoxville, Tenn., Leavenworth,
Kan., Lockport, N. Y., Wilkes-Barre,
Bloomington, 111., and Harrisburg.
Put Wires Underground
Mr. Tripp came to Harrisburg a
little less than three years ago from
Colorado Springs, where he had su
pervision over the big electric light
ing, gas and hydro-electric companies
of that city. In October, 1911, he
assumed the general managership of
the Harrisburg company and in that
time he practically reorganized the
electric service system In this city and
vicinity.
For some years Harrisburg had dis
cussed underground wiring and with
the coming of the new head of the
electric light company the first steps
toward bringing about that hoped for
improvement were taken. Mr. Tripp
was chosen vice-president and gen
eral manager of the Harrisburg Light,
Heat and Power Company upon his
arrival here and soon afterward the
Paxtang Electric Company wag pur
chased and the merging of the two
companies was made possible hy the
passage of an ordinance in Council.
The merging of the companies was
brought about by the new head of
the electric light company.
Provided New "White Way"
The old Fourth street plant was va
cated and the Ninth street plant was
reconstructed. The Paxtang's old es
tablishment at Cedar street was re
modeled and fitted up to assist in the
furnishing of the electric service for
the city. In time the Harrisburg
Steam Heat and Power Company in
Short street was taken over and the
Harrisburg Light and Power Company
was formally organized. The new
Ninth street plant was fitted up to
serve as a central station for the light
and power service.
Harrisburg's ornamental lighting
system—the system of cluster lights
and standards which converted the
city's business section into a modern
commercial white way—was suggested
by Mr. Tripp, and the first steps to
ward putting wires underground were
taken when this ordinance was passed.
Extensions in the interurban light
ing field were taken under the admin
istration of Mr. Tripp, too, and to
day the first unit of the proposed
nation-wide Interurban lighting sys
tem is in service in Dauphin. Plans
are under way for the extension into
Penbrook and Highspire.
Steelton's streets, by the way, have
been lighted through the Harrisburg
company, the local concern having
purchased the Steelton Light and
Power Company more than a year
ago.
