pSh What the Shops
1 Are Showing yf^y*
There is no one Ithing that makes
)he Eastman kodaks and Premo cam
eras superior to others, but the com
bination of parts, each accurately do
ing its work, makes the perfect whole,
and this perfection is found In every
bit of photographic supply made by
the Eastman Company. The N. C. film
cartridge and Premo film packs are
unexcelled for taking pictures, and the
liorgas Drug Store, 16 North Third
street, carries a complete line of these
as well as kodaks, cameras, carrying
cases, photograph albums and all sorts
of photographic supplies. They are
offering several special designs in ko
daks and cameras, which are especially
appropriate for Christmas giving, and
the prices range from $1 up.
.SERVICE AXI) BEAUTY
The maid who daintily picks her
way through the snow-laden street
must wear a serviceable shoe, yet no
daughter of Eve will willingly sacrifice
beauty for service. The Walk Over
Boot Shop, 226 Market street, is show
ing a shoe which is strictly serviceable,
yet so graceful in line that beauty is
the first thing one thinks of when
looking at it. It Is a model in dull
leather, with Cuban heel, and the last
is unusually pretty, giving the foot
the long, slender lines which make
for daintiness, and still secure perfect
comfort. Excellent workmanship is a
feature of this shoe, as it is of all!
Walk Over models, and the shoe in I
spite of its simplicity i? strikingly dis- !
tinctive. The price is $5.00.

HOW TO PREVENT
ACID STOMACHS AND
FOOD FERMENTATION
B.T a .Htmnneh Sprrlnllat
As a specialist who has spent many
years in the study and treatment of
■itomach troubles. I have been forced
to the conclusion that most people who
complain of stomach trouble possess
stomachs that are absolutely healtliv
and normal. The real trouble, that
which causes all the pain and difficulty,
is excessive acid In the stomach, ag
gravated by food fermentation. Hyper
acidity irritates the delicate lining of
the stomach and food fermentation
causes wind which distends tin stom
ach abnormally, causing that full
bloated feeling. Thus both acid and
fermentation interfere with and re
tard tile process of digestion. The
stomach is usually healthy and normal.
I• ut Irritated almost past endurance by
these foreign elements—acid and wind.
In all such cases and they comprise
over 90 per cent, of all stomach diffi
culties—the first and only step neces
sary is to neutralize the acid and stop
the fermentation by taking In a little
warm or cold water Immediately after
• atlng, from one to two teaspoonfuls
of bisurated magnesia, which is doubt
less the best and only renlly effective
antacid and food corrective known.
The add will be neutralized and the
fermentation stopped almost instant
ly, and your stomach will at once pro
ceed to digest the food in a healthy,
normal manner. Be sure to ask your
druggist tor the bisurated magnesia,
US 1 have found other forms utterly
lacking In Its peculiarly valuable prop
erties, —F, J. (3.—Adv,
TUESDAY EVENING,
FBI LI,S AND SIMPLICITY
The tailor-made girl, who loves sim- J
pie things, and the fluffy feminine girl, j
fond of frills, may both be suited with :
some of the clever neckwear designs I
shown at the Woman's Exchange, Third |
street at Herr. Collar and cuff sets of I
sheer lawn, simply hemstitched, dainty ,
little frills of luce or net to stand high
at the neck with edge touching the
coiffure, and finished at the base of
the throat with a band of black velvet,
military effects, and the popular and
becoming standing collars with full
pleattngß in the back as well as the
very useful and charming vestees are
shown at prices from 25c and 50c up,
and any of these dainty pieces of neck
wear make most delightful Christmas
gifts.
FOR MIDWINTER WEAR
The midwinter season has found os
trich the most favored of millinery
trimmings, and whether the picture
hat is simply trimmed with a co
quettish bunch of ostrich tips, droop
ing over the edge, encircled with a
graceful ostrich band, or lavishly
trimmed with beautiful French plumes
or uncurled ostrich, ostrich of some
kind it must be, on both the large and
small hats, and the Astrlch Store,
Fourth ami Market streets, offers a
line of ostrich novelties and trimmings
which is large enough to meet any re
quirements while the prices are small
enough to suit every purse. Ostrich
fancies and stick-ups to add a new
touch to the "first'" hat are also fea
tured in this special display.
A MENU HELP
Nothing is more wholesome than
stewed fruits, and for breakfast, for a
luncheon dessert, or served as the
French like them, with a meat course,
they are very tempting. However,
there are many kinds of fruits to stew,
and while some are tasteless and in
sipid, others are fruity and delicious.
Of course, evaporated fruits are the
best, but in these, too, there are many
different grades and qualities, but
those offered by the Studebaker Gro
cery Store, State and Second streets,
are the best sort, maintaining the
standard of excellence set by this store
in all foodstuffs. These fruits are care
fully ripened before being picked and
have a delightful, rich, fruity flavor.
BOXED PAPERS
."Oh, how lovely!" Is the natural ex
clamation on seeing the beautiful boxes
of stationery offered at the Central
Book Store. 32 9 Market street, for
holiday giving. One charming box
contains rows of delicate mauve en
velopes, with fine white paper gleam
ing between, and on one side a row of
gold-edged correspondence cards with
envelopes to match. Another box dis
closes pale blue tltilings, and indeed so
many styles'are shown that any taste
may be suited. The papers are the
finest qualities and the Christmas
boxes are unusually attractive. Mod
erate prices are a feature of this dis
play.

Edwin M. Abbott, attorney for the
| combined committee of the United
i Business Men's Association of Phlla-
I delphla and Commuters' Association In
! the proceeding before the Public Serv
-1 ice Sommission in reference to in
creased passenger fares, has filed with
the commission this morning an appli
cation on behalf of complainants for a
rehearing, presenting the following
reasons:
| 1. That the limitation of the sale of
I 100-trip individual commutation tickets
I valid for a period of six months from
I the date of issue, the rate charged for
' these tickets not to exceed 1 % cents a
mile, is an unfair limitation and prac
tically grants the desire of the rail
! roads to eliminate this form of trans
portation completely.
2. That the suggestion of a maxi
l mum rate of 1 \<s cents per mile is un
| fair to the commuter, in that the for-
I mer basis of comparative rates be
-1 tween stations was never considered
heretofore'on a mileage basis, and that
under the supplemental schedules as
| tiled upon a basis of 1 cents a mile
I the. various commutation rates for the
: 100-trip ticket have been advanced
( from 10 to 100 per cent, in many in
! stances.
Ira B. Bixler, a passenger conductor
' on the Middle division of the Pennsyl
i vania Railroad, and Elmer J. Stuckey,
| a contractor, both residents of Camp
! Ilill. have lodged a complaint with the
I commission against the refusal of the
j United Electric Company, of Lemoyne,
j to install service to complainants' resi
liences unless complainants agree to
! pa.v in addition to the usual rates for
service an annual charge of $5 per
i year, which, the respondent alleges, is
j the rental whiqh it will be required to
| pay to the Bell Telephone Company
| for use of its poles in stringing wires
i from its present line to complainants'
I residences.
i The Mansfield State Normal School,
of Mansfield, Pa., has filed with the

that its rate for service has lately been

is alleged to be excessive, unjust and
unreasonable.

German March Music Brings

"Es War Tot," but "Die Wacht Am Rhein" Just Wouldn't
Let Him Stay That Way
That "music liath to charm"
has lons been admitted. But that mu
sic should have power to charm the
"dead" back to life has, hlthertofore,
never been ventured. Music has just
that power says Martin Gerhardt, a

man.
All this, however, is a degression.
Here's the story:

PASSENGER RATES
II EFFECT TODAY
Round Trip Tickets Are Aban
doned ; Commuters Gain and
Lose in Change
Increased passenger rates went into
effect on all roads running into iiar
rlsburg to-day. This includes com
muters who ride to and l'rom the near
by towns daily. The average inereaso
os commutation tickets is twenty-five
cents each month.
No round trip tickets will be sold
at any ticket otiice. This means an in
crease of one dollar on the rate be
tween Philadelphia and this city. By
purchasing a round trip ticket for
Philadelphia and return the price was
$4.20. The new rate is $2.60 each way.
The average rate per mile to and from
local points will be two and a half
cents per mile. West of Altoona and
between New York, Pittsburg. Chi
cago, St. Louis and other far western
points there will be many increases.
The 25-cent and 20-cent additions to
the sixty-trip and forty-six-trip
monthly tickets, respectively, will not
amount to much with individual buy
ers. 'Users of these tickets, however,
win a point in not having to buy them
on the first of the month. They will
be good for thirty days from the date
of issue. In brief the principal changes
are:
Bound-trip and fifty-trip tickets are
abolished.
Sixty-trip individual commutation
tickets will be sold at flat advance of
25 cents over present prices. They
will be good for one month from date
of issue.
Forty-six trip school individual
commutation tickets will be sold at
flat advance of 20 cents. They, too,
will be good for one month from date
of issue.
Commissioners Stop
Livestock Rate Change
Washington, I_>. Dec. 15.—Pro
posed increases in freight rates on live
stock, fresh meats and packing house
products from Chicago ,St. Louis apd
other western entries to eastern cities
were suspended yesterday by the Inter-
State Commerce Commission until
April 15 for Investigation.
It is estimated that, had the Increas
!ed rates been permitted to go into ef
fect they would have yielded to the
roads an added Income of nearly $lO,-
000.000 annually. The proposed ad
vances affected live stock of all kinds,
fresh meats and packing-house pro
ducts of every description. On cattle,
for Instance, the increase would have
been from 28 to 33 cents a 100 pounds
between Chicago and New York; on
fresh meat, from 45 to 50 cents a 100
pounds, and on general packing-house
products, from 30 to 33 cents a 100
pounds.

the audience found their songs so de
lightful and catchy.
A laughable skit was that of Loralne
and Dudley, a funny portrayal of
bachelor's kitchen. The feminine por
tion of this sketch does some very
clever character work, appearing as a
Swedish girl and later as a young
woman ho had had a quarrel with
her fiance and wants to "make up."
The closing feature, by Max Lehoen
and M'lle Dupreece. is one of vaude
ville's latest novelties. With an elabo
rate stage setting, showing (lower gar
dens, fountains, statuary, fireflies, moon
and starlight by night, and a cosy
home, a background was formed for an
act that included singing, pleasing
repartee between lovers and an intro
duction of marvelous marksmanship.
Shooting nj> poker chips with a rifle
by means of looking glasses was part
of M'lle Dupreece's work. The young
woman is some shooter. Standing at
the rear of the theater, she sniifTec' out
a half-dozen candles with rifle balls.
The act closes with a pleasing song,
during which Max Lehoen plays an
accompaniment on bells with the aid
of bullets shot from repeating rifles.
