10 X&owen Dorothy Dix's Screaming Series The ortermoblle is a kind of wagon with a sewing machine contraption Sn front and a smell behind. It also goes very fast when tt goes, and it stops very still when it stops, and you have to pay a man five dollars to come and project with its insidea and tell you why. In ancient times there were no ortermobiles and people used to drive horses for pleasure, and it took all day to go twenty miles, but this was a iong: time ago, as much as twenty live years. I expect. My mamma says that a ortermoblle is the best way to get into society. My papa says that a ortermobile is the quickest, way to get to the poor house. Ido not know which is right. Perhaps they both are. It used to be that only rich people kept ortermobiles, but my papa says that now anybody can get an orter moblle that can raise a second mort gage. There are a great majiy different kinds of ortermobiles. There are red ortermobiles and blue ortermo biles and yellow ortermobiles, but whatever kind of a ortermobile you've got you always buy a different make the next time you buy one. You also brag about the kind of ortermobile you've got while you've got it, but when you sell it you knock It, and say it was nothing but a JOnk wagon. As a Means of Convenience The ortermobile Is very useful in getting people from place to place quickly. It also furnishes you some thing to talk about, no if you have got a ortermobile you are never si lent In company, for you sit up and tell how many mles you have driven, and what speed you made, and how the police liked to have caught you TO PREPARE DATA FOR TAKING OVER UNACQUIRED PARKS Bowman Ordinance Authorizing Converting of River Front Sections Certified Certification of the ordinance pro viding for the taking over by the city of the sections of park frontage which have not been heretofore acquired and which are not included in the "Hard scrabble" condemnation measure has been made to the City Engineer's De partment and as soon as the necessary data relative to the "Hardscrabble" proceedings is collected plans for tak ing over the other unacquired portions will be mapped out.

And folks have to listen to you be cause they want to tell how many miles they went In their ortermobile. My father the ortc-rnioblls Is also most useful as a fool killer, and that every year it rids the world of a lot of pin headed idiots that would be in sensible people's way If there were no ortermobile wrecks of Joy riders. Ortermobiles makes men very fierce, like raging lions, and say cuss words, but they makes ladles very patient like angels. When we go out in our ortermo bile, and all of a sudden It says p-s-t-n-s-s--, and stops, and my papa gets out of the machine, and goes peeking around at its innards with an expression of Damn all over him, none of UP dast ask him what is the matter. And when the wheel picks up a tack and my pape has to put in a new tube, we sit Just as still as mice because it in not safe to speak to a man when he is pumping a tire. The reason there is always a crowd around the man who Is putting a shoe on an ortermobile wheel is because he always looks mad enough to eat folks alive, and they want to be there to see him do it. When my papa is at home he's good and kind, and minds what my mamma says to him, but when we are In the ortermobile he snaps her head off if she speaks to him. I do not know why this is so. but It Is so. Ortermobile make you very popu lar. You never know how many peo ple love you. and want to be with you. until you have a ortermoblle. That's all at present about orter mobiles. "Hardscrabble" 'is taken over, of course. The measure will operate similar to that of the "Hardscrabble" ordinance. It provides that Front street from th». south side of South street to a point sixty-five feet north of Liberty street and from the south side of Harris street to the south side of Maclav street be opened. This means that Front street will be j opened to the low water line of the i Susquehanna. The section west of the j western curb line, of cottrse, will be ! officially set aside for park purposes 1 after the method that was adopted in j setting aside the central sections of State and other streets for grass plots. "As soon as we are through getting the "Hardscrabble" data together— the figures relative to properties which will be included in the proceedings— we'll get busy with the parts of Front street included in Mr. Bowman's ordi nance." it was said at the City Engi \ neer's office to-day. "We will hardly j start the latter work before that,, how. 1 ever, as there is considerable detail to handle on the "Hardscrabble" Job. When the Front street data is ready j the plans, etc., will be turned over to I City Solicitor D. S. Seitz and he will | try to reach some satisfactory agree- I ment with the owners of the ground | for taking over the park land for the I city. Where no satisfactory terms can be reached the City Solicitor will then ask the courts to appoint viewers, who will assess the benefits and damages accordingly. 0k ASTRICH'S fi|) vjjJM 1 THIS FRIDAY AN UNUSUAL HAT SALE 9 ilk F Hats worth $2.50 to $3.00, Silk Hatters Plush Hats.

The prevalence of falling hair is alarming among all classes of women. Dandruff Is one of the main causes of it. Another cause is lack of nourishment of the hair roots. The ordinary haif tonics bought these days merely stimulate for the time being. These can not stop dand ruff or make hair grow. What Is need ed Is to supply the necessary nutriment so that the tissues of the scalp anil hair roots may return to their original con dition of vigor and health.

Brady presents one of his productions to motion picture lovers In the form of Jules Eckert Goodman's play. "Mother." Emma Dunn was the star in the play when it was seen 011 the stage, and with "Mother" her name has always been associated. The heroine of the play Is the mother, the head of a family of six children. She has been the mother of eight, but she has lost two of her dear ones. At her husband's death, she finds herself with money enough to rear her offsprings; but four years before the opening of the play, the eldest son has run away and married a chorus girl. He has wasted his share of his father's estate, and to meet the demands of his wife, he has stolen from his employers. He forges Ills mother's name to a note for SIO,OOO. When cornered and brought face to face with the facts, he threatens to kill himself. Here It is the gentle mother who calmly admits that the signature to the note Is her own. Her second son is caught in the toils of another designing chorus girl, the sister of the eledest son's wife. The mother saves her first-born and draws him to her home again, while the sec ond son Is also saved from the woman. Her daughters' love affairs are also set right by the mother, while she does not neglect the younger ch'ldren and their fun. Mrs. Wetherell sums up her idea of motherhood and mother love in her all embracing love, which does not permit any harm to come to her children, even though it means suffering and expense to her. personally.—Advertisement.

The coal from some mines is very inferior in quality while that from others is excellent. Anthracite mines produce Soft Coal, Medium Coal, Hard Coal, Extremely Hard Coal, etc. All these kind give different results.
