RHEUMATISM
Physician Believes a Genuine Rem
edy for the Disease Has
Been Found
Uheuma, the wonderful rheumatism
Remedy sold by H. C. Kennedy and
Rll druggists, gives quicker and more
lasting relief than other remedies cost
ing; many times as much.
liheuma gets at once into the blood
and purifies it, allowing it to feed
freely into the veins and arteries and
passes the deadly poisonous secretions
into the bowels and kidneys, from
which they are quickly thrown off in
a. natural, healthy way.
Head what a reputable physician
Bays about Rheuma: "I have made a
most careful investigation of the
formula employed in the manufacture
of Rheuma, and I heartily recom
mend it as a remedy for all forms of
rheumatism, gout, and complications
arising from neglect of these diseases
in their early stages. On the basis of
the formula used alone, I find Rheuma
far in advance of the methods gen
erally employed in the treatment of
rheumatism, and altogether different
In composition from the remedies
usually prescribed."
This should give any sufferer from
rheumatism confidence in trying
Rheuma. It is so inexpensive you
cannot afford to do without it.—

TUESDAY EVENING,
CENTURY-OLD ORDERS
REVIVED 111 LONDON
Citizens Given Instructions as to
What They Should Do in
Case of an Invasion
London, No. 17, (correspondence of
the Associated Press). The request
voiced by several London newspapers
that the citizenry of England be in
structed by the war office just how to
act in case of a German invasion—
whether to fight as citizens or remain
passive—has prompted Hl9 Daily Mail
to reprint orders issued more than a
hundred years ago to meet a similar
contingency. The author of the orders
was the Duke of York, com
mander-in-chief, and they were pro
mulgated in 1801. when Britons re
garded the landing of troops by Na
poleon as not only possible but prob
able. At any rate, this is to be in
ferred from the tone of the duke's
pronouncement.
Commenting on this ancient docu
ment. the Daily Mail says it is "of
special relevance at the present time,
when the Germans are loudly pro
claiming their intention of attempting
invasion of this country." The order
was headed: "Information and Instruc
tions for Commanding Generals and
others."
"We must naturally suppose, from
the host of foes that surround 11s and
form the advantages our insular sit
uation gives us while they can be kept
at a distance, that their great object
must be an invasion of these countries.
The consequences of success would be
to them so great that they may be led
to attempt it, notwithstanding the su
periority and exertions of our navy
and the vigilance and gallantry of our
seamen. <• » «
"Before the descent of the enemy is
undoubtedly expected, or the particular
object of it is known, the troops will
be cantoned or encamped in the man
ner that appears the most advan
tageous. • * » Dispositions will
have been made for breaking up roads,
driving and abandoning the country
on the enemy's route, etc.
"On the first landing of an enemy,
if he cannot be prevented in the at
tempt, not a moment must be lost in
assembling the troops and pushing on
the most advanced, however few in
number, till more can be collected.
The great object must be constantly to
harass, alarm and tire an enemy, and
to impede his progress till a sufficient
force assembles to attack him. The
nature of the country affords every
advantage for that purpose; intricate
and inclosed, it is exceedingly difficult
for an enemy to advance. He is nevei
to be lost sight of by the light troops.
Every inch of ground and eVery field
may to a degree be disputed, even by
inferior numbers .
"As soon as ever he has quitted the
coast he must be surrounded in front,
flank and rear; a knowledge of the
country and a superiority of cavalry
gives that advantage. He must lie
obliged to fight for every article of
sustenance. The 'country must be
driven and everything useful within
his reach destroyed without mercy;
this the necessity of the case and the
infinite consequence of giving him an
immediate check: cattle and horses
must at all events be removed."

HARRJSBURG TELEGRAPH
45 Farmers Fooled to
Dillsburg With Wagon
Loads of Choice Apples
Forty-five farmers of Cumberland
county picked a wagonload of apples
and drove into DiUsburg yesterday for
—Nothing.
It was this way: A. E. Fries, 40,
supposedly of Scranton, advertised
that he was in the market for apples
and would buy all that were brought
to him at DiUsburg, Monday, Novem
ber 16. So yesterday forty-five hus
bandmen drove in with wagonloada
of pipHjns, smokehouse, Baldwins, and
what-not. But they learned that Fries
had gone. Not only was he gone, but
so was a team which he had hired
from A. Swartz, a DiUsburg livery
man.
The Harrisburg police have been
asked to help In the search for the
horse thief and-waster of apple-grow
ers' time.
New Dance and Song Act
Pleases at the Colonial
Practically unheralded, a pretty mu
sical and dancing playlet called "A
Dream of the Orient" slipped into the
Colonial yesterday and scored a tri
umph that was easily the most suc
cessful of the playhouse's whole career.
As one would glean from its title,
"A Dream of the Orient" is distinctly
foreign. One first sees a youth inhal
ing an opium pipe and he soon sleeps
and dreams. Gradually a beautiful
scene comes into view which is seei>
through a transparent screen, grow
ing more vivid as the lights are height
ened.
Posing and reclining about an ele
gantly furnished stage setting repre
senting the Interior of a Turkish
harem is a bevy of pretty and
clever girls. They sing songs ana
dance their numbers in keeping with
the scene. The dreamer soon arises
and Joins the funmakers, and he is a
dancer of uncommon ability, too.
Mr. Makarenko, who has just
launched the production Into vaude
vllle, is an actor and singer of con
siderable Importance himself. •

TREE CENSUS URGED i
BY J. H. ram
Believes Shade Now in Streets
Should First Be Conserved;
Forester Needed
Immediate census of nil the trees
in Harrisburg with a view to treat
ing and properly maintaining those
that now exist in the city's streets
rather than extensive planting of new
ones, was urged this afternoon by J.
Horace McFarland in an interesting
talk to City Council on the shade tree
commission law.
Air. McFarland, father of the law
and a former park commissioner, had
keen invited to talk to the commission
ers on the subject and to explain
some of its sections over which there
has been considerable discussion.
Chief among these is the question
of the equity of levying the cost of
planting the trees upon the abutting
property owner when his neighbor
who enjoys the shade is not required
to pay. This question as Mr. McFar
land pointed out, is more or less aca
demic, as it has never been raised in
the practicable carrying out of tree
planting under municipal direction.
The cost of maintenance is provided
by all the citizens by taxation as it is
provided that a tax up to a tenth of
a mill be levied for the purpose. Mr.
McFarland also pointed out that the
outside, cost of planting trees has never
been more than $3.50.
Census Necessary
Harrisburg's first act he pointed out
should be to take a complete census
of Its trees and to provide the method
of cleaning, spraying and otherwise
property caring for those it. now has,
and to regulate the future planting
in order to insure uniformity. Differ
ent types of trees would necessarily be
planned for different streets, he said.
The speaker quoted data from oth
er cities, including Philadelphia, show
ing what has been done for the care
and maintenance of its trees, and com
pared the splendid results that have
been obtained from year to year. This
data included the trees that had been
planted by the municipality and those
planted by individuals by permit is
sued by the Shade Tree Commission.
This is permitted by the act and would
of course apply also to Harrisburg.
A resolution providing for the ap
pointment of a Shade Tree Commis
sion was recently drawn up by Com
missioner Lynch who appreciates the
advantage of the law with respect to
regulating the planting of trees in
streets where pipes are put down.
In numerous places Mr. Lynch ex
plained the spreading of roots has
formed an obstruction. The roots are
drawn in the direction of the pipes he
said by the moisture and in some in
stances the street superintendent has
been compelled to wrap the piping
with oakuiu.
The resolution was placed in Com
missioner Taylor's hands but he asked
that action be postponed pending the
talk of Mr. McFarland.
Want Ibach Appointed
Captain of Detectives
City Council was petitioned this aft
ernon by seventy-five prominent busi
ness and professional men to reorgan
ize the city detective department,
making Joseph Ibach captain of detec
tives.
The petition is headed by Spencer
C. Gilbert. The petitioners point out
that Ibacli has made the Harrisburg
detective bureau one of the most effi
cient in Pennsylvania.
Defer Action For One
Week on Front St. Paving
Action on the resolution authoriz
ing the city to accept deeds for un
acquired park land from abutting
property owners in return for the
settling of half the paving assessment
in North Front street from Kelker to
Maclay was postponed for a week by
City Council this afternoon. The ques
tion will be taken up in detail with
City Solicitor D. S. Seitz. Work along
the river front was relayed last week
because one of the property owners
refused to permit the city to treat the
bank In front of his house because he
had not yet turned it over to the city.
He offered to do so if relieved of all
but half of the paving assessment.
Commissioner Lynch offered a reso
lution transferring $2,151.68 from the
fund for repairing Dock street bridge
to the fund for repairing Paxton
street.

THE TERRIBLE FURIES OF WAR
"The Story of Europe" Reveals the
Causes of History's Greatest Combat
Europe to-day Is a collosal, blood
soaked battlefield —a scene of univer
sal carnage and waste. The flowers
of Europe's manhood is being mowed
down by awful engines of destruction.
Whole regiments will be left decimated
and bloody. Tens of thousands of
unmarked graves will shelter tho
corpses of husbands and fathers, sons
and brothers, whose smiles and af
fection and support will never be
known again, in every hamlet and
town homes will be shattered and left
desolate, with widows and wondering
orphans weeping by their bereaved
firesides.
These are the consequences of such
a war as Is now sweeping Europe like
a flame of delirium—a war unprece
dented in the ages of man. Is it by
accident? Is it the whim of a tyrant?
Has it a logical cause? Will men and
nations lose or gain by it?
"The Story of Europe and the Na
tions at War" tells the whole story.

When Mi-o-na, the Quick and
Effective Remedy Costs
But a Trifle.
If your stomach is continually kick
ing up a disturbance causing distress
after eating heartburn, coated tongue,
gas, sour taste of food, and you feel
blue, irritable and nervous, you are
suffering from Indigestion and dys
pepsia.
| It's not only needless but dangerous
for you to suffer this misery, and now
is the time to stop the distress. Sim
ply get from any drug store some
Mi-o-na tablets, which are especially
prepared to quickly banish all kinds
of indigestion misery, and regulate*
upset stomachs.
Mi-o-na is a simple and harmless
prescription that can be used at any
time. These small and most beneficial
tablets do more than give quick and
lasting relief—they soothe the irri
tated lining of the stomach and stimu
late the flow of the digestive juices
so that what you eat is quickly con
verted into healthful nourishment for
the blood and nerves. Then you wo
well and strong and no longer worry
about trifles or have restless nights.
Do not delay treatment and allow
indigestion to wreck your health and
happiness. Get some Mi-o-na tablets
from H. C. Kennedy at once—take
them at the (list sign of distress* Tf
Mi-o-na doesn't cause every symptom
of indigestion to quickly vanish the
purpchase price, small as it is, will be

THE EASIEST WAY
TO END DANDRUFF
Stop Falling Hair and Itching
Scalp
There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruff completely
and that is to dissolve it. This de
stroys it entirely. To do this, just get
about four ounces of plain, ordinary
liquid arvon; *.pply it at night when
retiring; use enough to moisten tho
scalp and rub It in gently with tho
linger tips.
B.v morning most, if not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will complete
ly dissolve and entirely destroy, every
single sign and trace of it, no matter
how much dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop in
stantly, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel a hundred times better.
If you want to keep your hair look
ing rich, do by all means get rid of
dandruff, for nothing destroys tho
hair so quickly. It not only starves
the hair and makes it fall out, but it
makes It stringy, straggly, dull, dry,
brittle and lifeless, and everybody no
tices it. You can get liquid arvon at
any drug store. It is inexpensive,
and four ounces is all you will need.
This simple remedy has never been
known to fail.—Advertisement.
