Blood Sufferers
Want to Know
The Light is Turned on to a
Subject of Darkness.
Tlie mere fact that S. S. 8., the famous
blood purifier, drives out disease is a
world's story, a topic of conversation wher
ever men get together.
They wonder why, simply because most
remedies are mystified and put befote them
as "discoveries." The facts are that we
pay too much attention to possibilities and
not enough to real, homespun accomplish
ment. S. S. S. Is a remedy of our fathers.
It has a history that Is written deeply In
men's minds because it has done the work,
driven out deep seated disease, revived
hope, put the O. K. on appearance and
clamped down tight any effort of germs
to get the upper hand. Any 3orc spot on
the skin Is an Immediate demand for
S. S. S. since the first principle of this
famous remedy Is to strike out for places
of trouble. This Is a physiological fact
and S. S. S. Is true to the workings of
our body.
Get a bottle of S. S. S. today at any
druggist and begin blood healtb. It will
master any blood disease and do it In a
way to emphasize its influence. And If
you would like definite advice write The
Swift Specific Co., 50 Swift Bldg., Atlanta,
Ga. Their medical department is where
most people first seek advice that puts
them on the straight road.

FRIDAY EVENING, HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH JANUARY 22, 1915.
[MOTHERS' DAY' AT
MILLER SERVICES
Old People Sing Old-time Songs at
Mechanicsburg
Tabernacle
Special to The Telegraph
Mechanicsburg. Pa., Jan. 22.—"The
Judgment Day," was the subject of
the sermon delivered last evening by
Evangelist Miller, from the text, "It ;s
appointed unto men once to die, but
after that the judgment." He de
clared that "if the Bible is true in
part, it is all true, if the first part
of the text is true, then the latter part
is true." "It is not death that ringii
terror to the human heart, but it is
what follows the judgment." The ser
mon was acarely concluded until peni
tents commenced surging forward.
Twenty-two confessed Christ, inakin»r
in all one hundred and forty-nine de
cisions.
Last evening the tabernacle was in
adequate for the crowd of people.
Many were turned away and about
one hundred stood during the service.
A trombone solo and a song message
by Professor Hohgatt were enjoyable
j numbers on the program. The taber
nacle was in darkness for a time, ow
ing to a burnt out fuse.
In the afternoon automobiles were
busy bringing the older women to the
mothers' day celebration. In honor of
the observance, people all over town
were wearing white carnations. Dec
orations at the tabernacle, were foliage
plants and great bunches of carna
tions. The old people sang old-time
songs and the two oldest, Mrs. Anne
Cocklin, 91 years, and Mrs. Lucy Otto,
89, were seated on the platform, and
presented with carnations. This even
ing the Church of God will entertain
the high school girls and serve re
freshments and the Methodist Episco
pal Church, the high school boys. At
the conclusion they will march to the
tabernacle with pennants and cheers.

LOOK AT CHILD'S
TONGUE F SICK
CROSS, FEVERISH
When constipated or bilious give
"California Syrup of
Figs"
Look at the tongue, mother! If
coated, it is a sure sign that your little
one's stomach, liver and bowels need
a gentle, thorough cleansing at once.
When peevish, cross, listless, pale,
doesn't sleep, doesn't eat or act nat
urally, or is feverish, stomach sour,
bieath bad; has stomach-ache, sore
throat, diarrhoea, full of cold, give a
teaspoonful of "California Syrup of
Figs," and in a few hours all tho foul,
constipated waste, undigested food and
sour bile gently moves out of its little
bowels without griping, and you have
a well, playful child again.
You needn't coax sick children to
take this harmless "fruit laxative;"
they love its delicious taste, and It al
ways makes them feel splendid.
Ask your druggist for a 50-cent bot
tle of "California Syrup of Figs,''
which has directions for babies, chil
dren of all ages and for grown-ups
plainly on the bottle. Beware of coun
terfeits sold here. To be sure you get
the genuine, ask to see that it is made
by "California Fig Syrup Company."
I Refuse any other kind witli contempt.

NEW SEWER REPLACES
100-YEAR-OLD DRAIN
[Continued from First Page.]
fort station, plans for which construc
tion Commissioner l,ynch ill canslder
after the sewer .lobs are well under
way. .
Doing Away With Aged Sewer
The changing of the Bysteni in Mar
ket Square and Market street will
mean the doing away with what is
probably the oldest sewer in the city.
The drain now serves for all the
houses, hotels, office buildings, etc., in
the section. The pipe lies very close
to the surface, not deeper than four
feet in places, and this necessitates the
use of pumps in some of the more
modern buildings. The new sewer will
bo placed at a depth of at least lifteen
feet be-low the surface, so that all
buildings will have ample fall.
The construction by the Cumberland
Valley and Pennsylvania Railroads of
the big sewer in the South Second
street subway has really made possible
the pushing ahead of the city's new
sewer plans. By agreement with the
authorities the subway contractors for
the railroads built the big sewer from
six to eight feet lower than It had
originally planned in order to catch
the fall from the city sewers in the
business district.
What Change Means
By the plans submitted to Commis
sioner I*ynrh there will he one 12-inch
pipe extending from the Square to the
subway drnin in Seriond street. At the
entrance to the Square the pipes will
branch, a 121nch section or arm being
laid up each side of the Square to
Strawberry street. At Market a 12-
luch section will swing out to within
100 feet of Front.
The change In the business district
sewerage system will cost In the neigh
borhood of 55.."00 to SIO.OOO, It Is fig
ured, and Will be, paid for from the
SIOO,OOO sower item of the 1913 im
■ provement loar:.
"The present «anltarv spv/er that
serves the business district." said City
Kngineer Cowden. "is easily more than
a hundred years old. In fact, there
[arc no records available dealing with
Its construction. After the new sewer
Is built tlie present ono will be used
only for storm or surface water pur
poses."
GOVERNMENT DROPS CHARGES
J. S. Wilson, ex-Postmaster of Colum
bia, Goes Free
Special to Tlie Telegraph
Columbia, Pa., Jan. 22.—Charges
that John 8. Wilson, ex-postmaster of
Columbia, Pa., had exchanged money
order funds for private checks in vio
lation of the Federal statutes, were
withdraw yesterday In the United
States District Court at Philadelphia,
when the Indictment was ordered
quashed by Judge Dickinson.
Wilson was tried last October, but
tho Jury disagreed. The court held
yesterday that the disagreement of
the jury led to the presumption that
there was great doubt as to the de
fendant's guilt, and as the prosecution
has discovered no new evidence, no
harm would be done by dropping the
case.
