l jffllWWWlw cons early next

m tion, which will be

—mcMJ specially d e tailed
by the War Department, will be to
determine efficiency and readiness for
field service. The cavalry inspections
will begin January 4, but the other
inspections w'll run from January 11
to February 18.
Tffis inspection, which is under the
militia act, will be made by officers
connected with the branches of the
service they are to Inspect. A special
detail will be made for the Thirteenth
and Sixteenth Regiments and the sepa
rate battalion created out of Twelfth

be a special detail for the signal corps

It is the plan to have the annual

April and May.
Hearing To-morrow. The largest
list of hearings scheduled by the State
Industrial Board will be held at the

number of similar hearings next month
and to continue until standards are
adopted for about seventy Industries.
The Anthracite Cases. —Pennsylva-
nia's anthracite coal tax law will be
put to the test again In the Dauphin
county court this month and it is prob
able that the trial of appeals of com
panies from settlement of the Auditor
General and State Treasurer on the
taxes will take the place of the action
In equity which was heard some
months ago in this city. It is believed
by some of the attorneys that the
questions can be better raised and de
termined by following out appeals
from the tax settlements. Three cases
will be selected from about fifty
brought to trial on December 10. It is
probable that they will occupy a couple
of days. When the cases are ended It
is likely that the action in equity
brought by fourteen or fifteen Scran
ton coal companies will be dropped.
Big Iylst Ahead. Officials of the
State Board of Pardons say that there
will be the usal "Christmas list" for

joyment of Christmas at home. Thir
teen cases were carried over from last
month and already as many more have
been listed. It is expected that the
list will grow. The board will meet
on December 16.
Will Sit Here. Members of the
committee on revision of the State
Board of Public Charities will meet
here next week to go over some of the
requests of charitable Institutions for
recommendations for appropriations
from the next Legislature. These re
quests were made at the recent hear
ings and have been under Investi
gation. They come from all parts of
the State. The board will meet later
in Philadelphia to make up Its list.
To Discuss Armories. The State
Armory Board has been called to meev
here on December 17. It is probable
that action in regard to the legislative
program will be taken. Last session h

There has been some discussion among

WHAT CAUSES COLDS?
This question and "How to Prevent
Colds" is asked a thousand times
every day. A cold is really a fever,
not always caused by the weather but
due to a disordered condition of the
blood or lack of important food
elements. In changing seasons fat
foods are essential because they dis-i
tribute heat by enriching the blood
and so render the body better able
to withstand the varying elements.
This is the underlying reason why
the medicinal fats in Scott's Emulsion
quickly overcome colds and build
strength to prevent more serious sick
ness. It contains nature's medicinal
fats, so skillfully prepared that the
blood profits from every drop, and it is
free from harmful drugs or alcohol.
