How to Destroy
the Dandruff Germ
BY A SPECIALIST
That the dandruff germ is responsible
for nearly all the diseases to which the
scalp is heir, as well as for baldness and
premature gray hair, is a well known
fact, but when we realize that it is also
indirectly responsible for manv other
diseases as well, we appreciate "the Im
portance of any agent that will destroy
Its power. We are therefore, particu
larly pleased to give herewith the pre
scription which an eminent scientist
sta'tes he has found after repeated
tests, to completely destroy the dandruff
germ in from one to three applications.
It will also almost immediately stop
falling hair and it ha? In numerous
oases produced a new hairgrowth after
years of partial baldness. This pre
scription can be made up at home, or
any druggist will put it up for you: 8
ounces Bay Rum, 2 ounces Lavona de
Composee, one-half drachm Menthol
Crystals. Mix thoroughly, and after
.standing an hour it is ready for use.
Apply night and morning, rubbing into
the scalp with the finger-tips. If you
wish it perfumed, add 1 drachm of your
favorite perfume. While this prepara
tion is not a dye it is unequalled for
restoring gray hair to Its original
color.—Advertisement.
After Vacation Peel
Your Discolored Skin
Women returning from the seaside
with browned, reddened or freckled
complexions will be wise in immediately
taking up the mercolized wax treat
ment. Weatherbeaten skin had best
come off. for no amount of "beautify
ing" will ever make such skin pretty
to look at. The surest, safest, easiest
way to shed the despoiled cuticle is
with the treatment suggested. Put the
wax on before retiring, as vou -would
cold cream, and rinse it off next morn
ing with warm water. Minute par
tics of scarf skin will peel off day by
day. gradually showing the healthy,
youthful skin beneath. One ounce of
mercolized wax, obtainable at any drug
store, is enough to make any discolored
or spotted complexion clear, white and
satiny soft. Its action is so gentle no
in.lury is caused and the face shows no
trace of Its use.
Burning heat, irritating winds and
dirt are such wrinkle-makers that the
daily use of the following astringent
tonic lotion at this season is highly
advisable: Powdered saxolite, 1 oz..
dissolved in witch hazel, % pi. T'sed
as a face bath this is a splendid wrinkle

What Thin Folks Should Do
to Gain Weight
Physician'* Advice Kor Thin, Unde
veloped Men and Women
Thousands of people suffer from ex
cessive thinness, weak nerves and
feeble stomachs who, having tried ad
vertised flesh-makers, food-fada, physi
cal culture stunts and rub-on creams,
resign themselves to life-lcng sklnnl
ness and think nothing will make them
fat. Yet their case is not hopeless. A
recently discovered regenerative force
makes fat grow after years of thin
ness, and is also unequalled for repair
ing the waste of sickness or faulty di
gestion and for strengthening the
nerves. This remarkable discovery is
called Sargol. Six strength-giving, fat
producing elements of acknowledged
merit have been combined in this peer
less preparation, which is endorsed by
eminent physicians and used by promi
nent people everywhere. It is absolute
ly harmless. Inexpensive and efficient.
A month's systematic use of Sargol
should produce flesh and strength by
correcting faults of digestion and by
supplying highly concentrated fats to
the blood. Increased nourishment is ob
tained from the food eaten, and the
additional fats that thin people need
are provided. George A Gorgan and
other leadln" druggists supply Sargol
and say there is a large demand for It.
While this new preparation has given
splendid results as a nerve-tonic and
vltalizer. It should not be used by
nervous people unless they wish to gain

Abe Potash and His

The story of "Potash and Perlmut

their continual quarrels, are shown to
be generous, and loyal to a fault.
Troubles pile up fast upon' them.
Their rival has a designer whose goods

rascal; the Russian government has
their bookkeeper arrested on a trump

him from extradition they risk their
fortunes and are on the verge of
bankruptcy. Then enters Ruth Gold
man. the designer of the famous Arv
erne Sacque, and with her enters
i sunshine and happiness. She secures
a great politician to help the book
keeper, she gets out a new sacque for
Potash and Perlmutter that brings in

WHY SHE PAINTS HER EARS
Sotr)e of these fine days when the
rouge tint vanishes from milady's
cheeks, not that 1 think the crimson
color is going out of date, mind you,
but when its position moves up and
back a trifle, somewhere within the re
gion of the ear, it will be only fair to
remember that Valeska Suratt intro
duced. the fad—and then by all means
give credit where credit is due and ad
mit that Valeska led us to it. Or drove
us to it, whichever you prefer. The
fact that it is so becoming to this par
ticular lady is all the more reason why
we may soon see it real soon. Honest
ly, it's becoming! In Miss Suratt's type
of beauty, with her dark, straight hair,
combed as tight to the head as it can
be worn with comfort, and her dark
eyebrows, the red eftrs look good. At
least they look better than one would
imagine. The tint starts to appear,
just slightly. In about the middle of
the cheek. Gradually and artistically
It deepens in tone as it moves onward
and upward and finally makes a bold
strike at the ear. Certainly, one can
see that Miss Suratt would never in the
world try to make us think such a col
oring natural. It's simply her idea of
an artistic makeup and it's effective,
we must admit. Girls, to be really cor
rect, you must have red ears, keep vour
tresses tight to your head, and bv all
means don't forget to wear the Valeska
Suratt spit-curl, which must come Just
in front of the pink ears. At the Or
pheum, this week, Miss Suratt, with
her magnificent production called
"lllack Crepe and Diamonds," is creat

proclaimed a positive winner.—Adver

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
LETTERS-TO THE
j 'SI EDITOR SI
SAYS P. U. K. IS UNFAIR
I7"O the Editor of tlit Telegraph:
I A Harrisburg evening paper of re-
I cent date is responsible for the state
ment that ten or fifteen passenger
| trains on the Pennsylvania railroad
j would be taken out of service about
September 15. A day or two earlier
the public was startled bv the an
i nouncement that there would be a
j general increase in all passenger tar
iffs on the Pennsylvania railroad
about October 1, providing the Inter
state Commerce Commission and the
Public Utilities Commission would
consent.
I "The former will surely consent to
I the proposition for it has already
hinted that such a course was open
to the railroad company. The latter
will follow suit for its chief business
seems to be to serve the railroads
and the politicians who created it.
The only negative recommendation
j this august body of high-priced Sol
ons has yet made was to refuse a spe
j cial rate to clergymen and charity
I workers—-a privilege previously grant
ed by federal statute through the In
] ter-state Commerce Commission.
"When a school boy I was compelled
to memorize a passage in the United
States Constitution that read some
thing like this: 'No State shall enact
: legislation that will nullify any pro-
I vision of this Constitution.' Evidently
our forefathers knew nothing about
the resourcefulness of Pennsylvania
lawmakers. In view of which, our
Public Utilities Commission may be
trusted to grant whatever permission
the railroad company desires.
More Trouble Coining
"And. now, as if the traveling pub
lic's cup of iniquity were not full,
comes a message from Washington to
the effect that the Ways and Means
Committee of the House of Represen
tatives is seriously considering the
proposition to add a tax of from five
to ten per cent, on all railroad tickets,
as one of the ways of raising suffi
cient revenue to meet government ex
penses. Let me ask, 'Who'll pay this
tax? The railroads or the traveling
public?" From our recollection of the
Spanish war measure it Is a safe guess
that the railroads will be able to
dodge it.
"I am only a plain man occupying
a very humble place in life and I
had hoped that men and women would
so thunder through the press and
elsewhere against the abuses that are
constantly being heaped upon the
traveling public by the railroads and
the Pennsylvania railroad in par
ticular that a halt might be called.
In the absence of such protest, I must
speak. • -
"If we cailnot prevent these injus
tices is there not some, way by which
the Public Utilities Commission can
compel the Pennsylvania railroad to
have at least as much consideration
for the comfort of its passengers as it
does for the comfort of its hogs an<j
cattle? For thirty years I have been
obliged to use the trains of this great
corporation. For twenty of these
thirty years I have almost lived in
them and I am prepared to prove tTiat
never in all these years has so little
consideration been shown for the
comfort of its patrons as during the
past five months.
Herding l*rocess Starts
"With the taking out of service last
March a number of passenger trains,
the herding process was begun and to
day passengers are crowded into day
coaches precisely as cattle are crowd
ed into stock cars. Should a passen
ger of moderate means and on a long
journey, from sheer exhaustion be
compelled to sleep, he must either
prostrate himself in the aisle or ves
tibule--a thing which is unthinkable.
And if the room is to be further re
stricted by taking off a dozen other
trains, what will be the result? One
can scarcely contemplate it wjth pa
tience.
"Within two months the writer was
compelled upon two different occa
sions to come from Pittsburgh to Har
risburg on train 6. In both Instances
the cars were absolutely jammed and
tired passengers were compelled to
stand in the aisles, filling them from
end to end, from Pittsburgh to Al
toona. On one of these trips, I had
the pleasure of sharing a seat from
Johnstown to Harrisburg with a
drunken Hungarian who sprawled
over me every time the car lurched.
It was either sit with him or stand
.and being very weary I chose the for
imer. Similar conditions maintain on
a dozen other trains which I have used
during the last five months.
"Another instance—just one of
many such. Recently I was obliged
to go to Rice's Landing, the terminus
of the Monongahela division Of the
Pennsylvania railroad. The distance
from Pittsburgh to Rice's Landing is,
approximately, sixty-five miles, re
quiring a little more than three hours
for th% journey. Hurriedly transact
ing the business that took me thither
I returned on the same train to Pitts
burgh, having traveled 130 miles and
spent more than six hours on the
train. This trip was made on the hot
test day this summer and for the
more than six hours I was In that
stuffy train, with the dust almost
stifling. Not a drop of water was to
be had.
Children Were Crying
"Children were crying and mothers
were appealing to the conductor, a
pleasant gentlemanly fellow, but he
was helpless. Finally. T could stand
it no longer and I told the conductor
that unless something could be done
immediately by which the passengers
might have some water I would be
compelled to report the matter to the
Public Utilities Commission. He then

Ice therein. Several women and chil

Rut, Mr. Editor, this was in the year
of grace 1914 and on one of the trains
of the great Pennsylvania railroad—
a corporation of which we are all
proud.
"If either of these instances are
doubted, let the proper officials of the
railroad or the Public Utilities Com
mission make inquiry and they will
not only be able to verify them but
will find many more. Now the com
pany s excuse for these retrenchments
on the one hand and extortionate
fares on the other, is that it is in the
interest of economy. To a man up a
tree, the frantic efforts of this great
corporation to make receipts and ex
penses equal, would be ludicrous were
they not so tragical. The man with a
few hundred dollars per year could
teach these great financiers' how to do
it. were they not so blind. How does
he do it? Simply by denying himself
a i»dV XU iT, 8 anf ' keeping his expenses
w "hin his salary, and not by robbing
another in order that his income might
reach. How does the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company do it?
I.D Salaries* Had Feature
By continuing to pay the same
• ? alanes *° thousands of useless
officials, many of whom live in ex
travagance far beyond their means,
and add inconveniences and hardships
to the poor bedlveled patron on the
one hand and compel him to pay
higher rates for less and inferior serv
ice on the other. Verily, this is a
rca t Is Caesar, indeed!
There is a safe and equitable
method, by which the expenses of this
groat corporation can be safely and
sanely met without working hard
ships to anyone. Tam not wise nor
great, but really think I have sense
enough to know that two and two
make four. Does the railroad com
pany know as much? Here's the plan:
i. ,lpdu ce the annual dividends
on all stock from six and seven per
cent, to five, a rate that was satisfac
tory for many years. In these davs
of stringency, when people of all
trades and professions are earning less
money than formerly, why should the
stockholders of this company insist
that their income should be the same
as in more prosperous times? Espe
cially so, when scores of railroads and
other corporations are not paying divi
dends of any kind.
"2. Discharge .every ornamental
employe from the high-salaried do
nothing to the "papa's boy" who
holds a job by virtue, of the fact that
his father happens to be an employe
with a pull.
"3. Reduce the salary of every of
ficer and employe receiving in excess
of $2,500 per year salary. Millions of
dollars are squandered annually in the
payment of princely salaries to high
officials while their worthy servants
and employes are begging for bread.
"4. Hoot out every needles* ex
travagance. Is there anywhere, a
man with sufficient temerity to at
tempt to explain the revenue produc
ing virtues of the scores of private
cars, each costing a handsome for
tune and maintained at an annual ex
pense of another fortune? 'Why this
wicked waste?' Millions of revenue
could be supplied annually by lopping
of such extravagances without in the
least impairing the quality of the serv
ice.
"5. Once and forever kill the pass
iniquity—the most monstrous injus
tice and unfairness extant, granting
them only to the railroad pensioner
and the widows and minor children of
employes. By what particular species
of stde-stepping and genuflexion the
brotherhoods and railroads were able
to convince the Public Utilities Com
mission that passes were part of sal
ary for service, the public has not
been advised. But it would not be
hard to guess. The railroad employes
are organized and are a power in poli
tics; the preacher and charity work
ers are not, and therefore and so
forth—Selah!
"I have been associated with rail
road people for many years, and I
have yet the first argument to hear
as to the fairness of granting passes
to their employes, crowding the trains
and compelling tired business men
who must pay for their transporta
tion to stand. Will some one tell us
why the railroad man or his family
are any more entitled to free trans
portation than the man who deals in
any other commodity for another
should be entitled to that commodity
for nothing? Many of our most self
respecting railroad people are dis
gusted with the whole pass evil and
would welcome its complete abolition.
Millions more of revenue could thus
be saved and the size and expense of
all trains be diminished.
"In these and other ways could the
railroad company secure sufficient
revenue to meet all honest expenses,
without further harassing the patrons
of the company or causing untold suf
fering in the homes of scores of thou
sands of their faithful employes. Will
it and the Public Service Commission
deal fairly with the public?

tinues to suffer without giving Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege
table Compound a trial after all the evidence that is con
tinually being published, which proves beyond contradic
tion that this grand old medicine has relieved more suffer
ing among women than any other one medicine in the world ?
We have published in the newspapers of the United States
more genuine testimonial letters than have ever been pub
lished in the interest of any other medicine for women —
and every year we publish many new testimonials, all gen
uine and true. Here are three never before published:
From Mrs. S. T. Richmond, Providence, R. I.
PROVIDENCE, R. I. —" For the benefit of women who suffer as I have
done I wish to state what Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
has done for me. I did some heavy lifting and the doctor said it
caused a displacement. I have always been weak and I overworked
after my baby was born and inflammation set in, then nervous pros
tration, from which I did not recover until I had taken Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound. The Compound is my best friend and
when I hear of ? T woman with troubles like mine I try to induce her
to take your medicine."—Mrs. S. T. RICHMOND, 199 Waldo Street,
Providence, R. I.
A Minister's Wife Writes:
CLOQUET, MINN. —"I have suffered very much with irregularities,
Eiin and inflammation, but your wonderful medicine, Lydia E. Pink
am's Vegetable Compound, has made me well and I can recommend
the same to all that are troubled with these complaints." —Mrs. JEN
NIE AKSRMAN, c/o Rev. K. AKEKMAN, Cloquet, Minnesota.
From Mrs. J. D. Murdoch, Quincy, Mass.
SOUTH QUINCY, MASS. —'• The doctor said that I had organic trouble
and he doctored me for a long time and I did not get any relief. I
saw Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound ad
•vertised and I tried it and found relief before I had
finished the first bottle. I continued taking it all w/ jp
through middle life and am now a strong, healthy Kj ■_ %■ yj
woman and earn my own living."— Mrs. JANE D. I \ 7Y 11

Your letter will be opened, read and answered
by a woman and held in strict confidence*
panic, which placed some of us in seri
ous circumstances. 1 happened to be
one. It was almost impossible for me
to secure a position, and for nine long
months I was idle. Durin* that time I
had made application for a position
here in Harrlsburg: the prospects for
landing same looked very bright, and I
was told to go see Mr. McCormick, as
his influence in the matter would more
than likely decide. Mr. McCormick
would not see me in his office, for somo
unknown reason, but gave me a very
discouraging answer at the head of the
stairway leading to his offices, which
were then down in Market street.
Knowing him to be a Christian gentle
man, 1 stated to him clearlv my condi
tion, as I had a wife and child to sup
port. This had no effect on the mil
lionaire.
To-day Mr. McCormick is facing
every eligible voter in the State of
Pennsylvania for his support. It is
for this reason I am giving this story
to the public, so each and every voter,
no matter what party he represents,
can see what sort of a candidate the
Democratic party have out on the
stump. Born with a silver spoon In his
mouth, he now seeks a position which
he must ask the poor man as well as
the rich to help him get. Felow-citl
zens, are you going to help such a man
to an office he does not deserve? He
has no time for the poor man, you can
plainly see that by the above state
ments, and from these personal experi
ences. I appeal to you all to stand by
eewer if clogged up. All life consists of building up and tearing
down and just in tne same manner that the blood carries to the
various parts of the body the food that the cells need for building
rp, BO it is compelled to carry away the waste material that's torn
<?jwn. These waste materials are poisonous and destroy us unless
the liver and kidneys are stimulated into refreshed and vigorous life.

Good Coal Can't
Be Sold Cheaper
The margin of profit on coal is figured so
close that a dealer cannot make a difference
from the recognized price and give you good
quality.
There is as much difference in coal as in
other merchandise—the inferior grades can
be obtained anywhere—the quality sort can
only be bought from quality concerns.
Our net profit on a ton of coal is about 20
cents —we could make more money if we con
sented to handle the inferior kind.
A trial order will show you the difference.
