10 HOW TO CURE PYORRHOEA The entire world is Riving attention to the (.'arc of the teeth, says the I«on don lancet. and tlds t are means more than merely washing away the coarse food that settles in the old places of the teeth. One of the greater sources of teeth evil Is tartar. At first tartar Hives little or no trouble—then come thicker Incrustations and the teeth he- Kin to separate from the gums aiul both are sensitive and sore—exudations are manifest, twisted teeth, loosened teeth, and jellow. dirty looking teeth are shown. Tooth pulling is now relegated to the limbo of the forgotten. No good dentist wants to pull teeth; the op posite is the effort of the entire profes sion. Tooth saving is just what every one is aiming to do. You know just how Miss Jones looks—she has nice hair, tint features, dresses with taste and care, but when she opens her mouth she shows horrid, dirty teeth, gnarled and knotted and yellow and black. "Hat teeth" some call them. Now there is no real necessity for this. When your teeth are full of tartar, when they rock to and fro, when they bleed and separate from the gums, you can remedy this condition over night If you will go to your druggist and get four ounces of fluid ergan (you won't need morel and put a teaspoonful in your mouth night, noon and morning. The tartar will dissolve right away, the bleeding will be stopped, the separation from the gums will readily pass away, and your gums will be healthy, rosy reu and firm. The teeth will stop rock ing and stay In the gums strong, the bacteria of the mouth from all the lit tle cracks and cranntes will he dis solved. washed out, destroyed. The lit tle blisters and the puffy gum condi tions pass away. No more dropping downward or forward of the teeth, no extraction for looseness: the pyorrhoea will no longer he a condition of the teeth. Soreness and tenderness will give way to ease and firmness.—Adver tisement. PRESIDENT M ILL NOT ACT By Associated Ft ess Washington, D. C., Nov. 24.

KENNEDY, Chambersburg, President of the Cumberland Valley ltallroad who was prominent at to day's trade conference sessions. short speech points which the dele gates had come from their home towns •to learn. He said. Mr. Barrett's address Pennsylvania has possibly more at stage in the Pan-American commercial opportunity than any other State in the union. The largest export business which this country does with Latin America is in exports of iron and steel and other hardware products." said Sir. Barrett, "While the demand for these has been vast during the last few years, it bids fair to be much greater in the near future. "1 want, therefore, to make an ur gent appeal to the manufacturers, ex porters. importers and businessmen generally of Pennsylvania to take a greater interest in the exchange of trade with our twenty sister republics than they have ever done before. Great credit is due those companies, firms and persons who have already estab lished a large commerce with Central and South America, but what they have done should be an inspiration and example to others who have not yet entered the field. "To understand the present situation, however, and to go about developing additional trade with Latin America, it is necessary to consider certain vital i facts of the present hour. In the very j first place, it must be emphasized that jl.atin America does not present an El ; Dorado to the American manufactur er. The importers, buyers and busi ness men generally of the Central and ; South American countries are not standing with their hands tilled with g. kl to buy everything that is offer j ed. Although that, field is potentially | mighty, it is at the present time un dergoing a serious financial setback caused by the European war. Normal conditions of commerce have been completely upset. The war has acted in a sense as n gigantic 'monkey wrench' cast into the Latin America commercial machinery and putting much of It out of commission until a new commercial machinery can be reconstructed having to do largely with the United States. The American manufacturers, exporters and import ers can not expect that development of business and that increase ,of trade which-they would expect if they did | not have to meet this situation. Now Is tlie Time "It must be emphasized, however, [that now is an excellent time for the average American manufacturer, ex porter and importer to study the field carefully and to master the conditions of demand and supply with reference to getting a start in Latin American trade and building it up when condi tions are more favorable. It is a good time to send representatives to Latin America provided they go there not with the expectation of securing large orders but of making such sales as they possibly can, establishing agen cies and acquiring practical informa tion about the market. Needs of the Hour "if you would ask me what, are the great .needs of the hour and what should be done in the premises, I would name the following: "Firms or croups of firms should if possible send personal representa tives to Latin America—men who un derstand the productive capacity of these firms and also the market where they are to act as representatives. If it is impossible to send such men, de pendence should be made upon re liable commission houses nnd manu facturers" agents in the principal ports ol' export, like Philadelphia, Baltimore, New York, etc. "Latin America to-day really needs the money of the United States more than It does the merchandise. Inas mucl. as the European war has practi cally cut off the European supply of money for Latin America governments, municipalities, firms and underta.kings, the United States could gain a tremen dous advantage if it could help out this situation. To express in this con nection a concrete fact, I would state that, if the United Slates could loan during the next live years $500,000,000 to Latin America, it would easily in crease during that time its commerce more than $500,000,000. "The establishment of banks under American control and of credit'facili ties are of vital necessity in establish ing a new Pan-American commercial machinery and in enabling the United States to build up its trade with Latin America, especially in the face' of jnich conditions as the war has brought about. "Improvement of direct steamship facilities under the United States flag between such ports as Philadelphia and Baltimore to both the east and west coasts of Latin America is abso lutely essential for the full develop ment of the new trade, conditions which must follow in the next few years and as a result of the opening of the Panama ("anal." Dr. I*ratt Speak* Presenting Dr. E. E. f'ratt. the sec ond speaker. Mr. Watt said: "How the Department of Commerce aids ex porters and the extension of Its work 1 can testify to the value of the. work of this department of our government. The consular reports regularly issued contain a vast fund of information as to markets, openings for farlous lines and pointers on methods of procedure. We have the good fortune to listen to the chief of the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce, Dr. Edward Ewlng Pratt." "Upon the outbreak of hostilities in Europe on August 1, American manu facturers, aroused by our newspapers, magazines, chambers of commerce and other public factors, saw a great op portunity Tor the development of our foreign trade." said Mr. Pratt. "There was a great wave of enthusiasm which swept over the country, but which a little later began to relax. Under the warnings .of people who had been in terested In that line of work and who saw many difficulties ahead. The war which had broken out in Europe did not present an entirely, promising as pect, there were many things in the HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH situntion which did not warrant great enthusiasm. The financial and credit machinery of the world was absolutely crippled and many manufacturers who had not realized that there business was in any way dependant on foreign trade found themselves confronted by a declining; market. The shipping of the world was entirely disorganized and is not to-day adequate to meet tlic demands of the world's business. Our cotton, which was markettcd to a great extent In Europe became un marketable and the price which was expected to be somewhere about 12 cents, dropped to 7 cents. In a similar way the products of South American countries which are mainly staple, raw materials and which were largel\ Marketed in Europe, failed to find their usual markets and a stagnant trade was the result in these coun tries. "Gradually, howevet, there has come a resumption in trade and com merce and shipping has been resumed In a limited way. Tremendous war orders have come in from the compat ant, nations to swell our exports. The credit of the worlds is gradually read justing itself by different means In this country. The South American coun tries, however, remain in a critical condition, without money and with out crcd't. The Nation's Chance "The United States can make a great decision which will undoubtedly, enor mously extend her markets. She can take advantage of this opportunity or she can let it go and lose the great ad vantages from her position as the only great nation of the world which is now at peace. It is not an opportunity, however, which can be realized with out an effort, but it is only with a supreme effort on the part of the United States that we will be able to take advantage of the opportunity which is presented. We cannot real ize it by attempting to /go into South America and sell our manufactured goods. The people in these countries have no money with which to purchase and we must find a. way to help them. We can do this by otie of two ways, We must either furnish South Amer ican countries with the funds to mar ket their products, or we must extend to them practically unlimited credit. If we are able to rise to this occasion, we have made the South American countries our commercial friends. We have opened the way for a permanent ly large business in these countries. If, however, we fall to meet the situation, we have lost our great opportunity. "The situation is perfectly clear. The South American countries are pro ducers of staple raw materials, which were marketed in Europe. On the opening of the war they could not market their goods and prices have increased enormously. The South American countries are in the same position as our Southern States. They have great quantities of raw material, but not market and consequently no money. They cannot, therefore, hope to sell our manufactured goods until in some way or other we have sup plied these countries with money or credit. Must Do Something "The remedy, however, can only be determined after careful study. It may be that we shall have to make a loan to the various South American governments. Maybe the banks of this country will find it possible to place a loan with the South American banks, taking warehouse receipts as security the establishment of branch banks will to some extent relieve the situation: the inauguration of more direct of dollar exchange will exist. Finally there must be a fundamental, far reaching change in our banking arrangements as they affect foreign trade. "The point is, that we must, do something, something fundamental, something which is the result of de liberate, mature and expert thought and we must do it quickly. To inform businessmen in a general way the conditions in South American countries and to tell him that he must be cau tious at the present time is rather sur perfluous advice, as the businessman is always cautious in the event of a strained financial situation. "What we need in the development of our foreign trade is common sense, or business sense: there is nothing systerious about the development of our foreign trade, as a matter of fact, the fundamental business principles In foreign trade are exactly the same as the principles which govern domestic trade." Afternoon Session Mayor Royal made the address of welcome this afternoon. The speakers were W. S. Kies, manager of the for eign department of the National City Bank, of New York, and the foremost authority in the country on foreign qredits: Dudley Bartlett. chief of the foreign trade bureau of the Philadel phia Commercial Museum, which has an exhibit at the conference. Our Changeable Tariff Jjn closing the morning session Chairman Watt said Mr. Barrett, in referring to the annoyance of the shifting tariffs and sudden changes in the Pan-American countries, had not mentioned the fact that we have in the United States a similar situation in our own Inter-State Commerce Commission on which the South Americans had nothing in the matter of tariff changes. Governor Tener has invited a few gentlemen to meet Mr. Barrett infor mally at dinner this evening.

POSITION OF CITY FORESTER CREATED Council Provides For Official to Supervise and Care For Trees SAURY OF SI,OOO A YEAR No Incumbent For Place as Yet, Says Taylor, Father of Measure ' Council this afternoon took initial steps to eroate the office of "city for ester." at a salary not to exceed SI,OOO annually, when an ordinance to this effect was read for the first time. The new position does not become effective until January 1. 1915, as the necessary provision for emolument must be included in the new budget for the ensuing year. The possible incumbent is a matter of discussion in municipal circles and City Commissioner M. Harvey Taylor, superintendent of parks and public property, who introduced the city for ester ordinance this afternoon, de clared that there was no one in view as yet for the place. "The man who will be appointed will be one who knows about trees and their treatment, that much I can say," said the park superintendent. "Just whom this will be I myself really do not know." The Forester's Job The ordinance provides that the for ester shall have complete control of the trees, attend to the spraying and pruning, guard them against insects and other pests, decide upon the kind of trees that are to be placed in vari ous parts of the city's parks and high ways and in other words supervise and superintend entirely the tree work in Harrifeburg. He will be under the park department's control. By appointing a city forester it is just possible that Council will thus de cide not to appoint a shade tree com mission on the ground that the for ester will fill the bill.
