    Swish! liorns Gone!
We Use "G£i& Br!"
2 Sr<»uilx, a Drop*—torn* Vnulxli!
For everybody with corns, there is in
every drug store in the l;ind one of the
real wonders of the world, and that's
"GETS-IT" for corns! It's the lirst and
only corn-cure ever known that re
moves and y-'.iy and every corn or callous
"Soma Foxy Trot, M'amacllo. What? Coma
Gone? Yet, I Uicd'GETS-IT.'"
without fail, without fussing with thick
bandages, toe harnesses, corn-swelling
salves, irritating ointments. It's ap
plied in 2 seconds—bing, bing— 2 drops,
ihe work Is done, the corn shrivels up,
your corn agony ends and the corn
leaves forever! All the limping, the
pains that dart to your heart's core,
the crucifixion of having to wear shoes
over screaming corns, the danger of
blood poison from making them bleed
by using knives, razors and scissors—
are gone at last! "GETS-IT" is the
new way, the sure, simple, painless
way. Try it for corns, callouses, warts
and bunions.
"GETS-IT" is sold by druggists
everywhere, 25c a bottle, or sent direct

FKEJTCH IX POSSESSION" OF HILL
St. Omer, France, Feb. 8, via Paris.
Fob. 11, 6.45 a. m—The capture of
the hill of Notro,Dame De Lorette by
the French has been announced at
headquarters here. The hill which
dominates th entire region, as being
fiercely disputed for weeks. A posi
tion captured by the British close to
Violaines station was one of consider
able importance as it overlooks La
Bassec.
DANDRUFF MAKES
HI FILL OUT
25 cent bottle of "Danderine"
keeps hair thick, strong,
beautiful
Girls! Try this! Doubles beauty
of your hair in few
moments
after an appli
cation of Danderine you can not find
a single trace of dandruff or falling
hair and your scalp will not Itch, but
what will please you most will be after
a few weeks' use, when you see new
hair, fine and downy at lirst —yes—
but really new hair —growing all over
the scalp.
A little Danderine immediately dou
bles the beauty of your hair. No dif
ference how dull, faded, brittle and
scraggy, just moisten a cloth with
Danderine and carefully draw it
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time. The effect is amaz
ing—your hair will be light. Huffy and
wavy, and have an appearance of
abundance; an incomparable lustre,
softness and luxuriance.
Get a 25 cent bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine frotn any drug store or
toilet counter, and prove that your
hair is as pretty and soft as any—that
it has been neglected or injured by
careless treatment—that's all—you
surely can have beautiful hair and lots
of it if you will just try a little Dan
derine.—Advertisement.

A trouble for its owner—and needlessly, toe.
Beware!
If you must have an all Havana smoke, try

and get next to the fact that a smoke to be rich and
satisfying doesn't have to be made of heavy Havana.
MOJA ALL HAVANA quality will fully satisfy any
taste, mild or strong.

THURSDAY EVENING,
SUB COII WHARF
CITY'S DOUBLE Ell
Harrisburg to Benefit Financially
—Unsightly Conditions on
Wall Eliminated
"Not only will the city be tlie gainer
linancially by allowing the electric
light company the use of sufficient
grcund on the island for the erection
of itii coal wharf, but; I think the prob
lem of unsightly conditions along thfc
river wall at Front and Market streets
due to the present landing wharf will
bo solved by the passage of the ordi
nance."
City Commissioner Harry F. Bow
man to-day summed up his position
relative to the ordinance offered last
Tuesday which grants the Harrisburg
Ught and Power company the use
of a plot 100 by 100 feet on the east
ern side of the island for the erection
of concrete loading wharf and hopper
in return for 1200 tons of river coal
each year for the nitration plant.
This amount of coal will be all that
will be needed at the plant. By erect
ing its wharf on the island the com
pany's landing stage on the river will
[no longer be necessary. The measure
jwill come before council for final ac
jtlon Tuesday.
Water Contains 40 P. C. Loss Aliun
Commissioner Bowman's statement
was in reply to an anonymous com
munication in a morning newspaper
which the superintendent declared is
incorrect. It stated that the proposed
plot was a future sedimentation site
and that the basin was necessary be
cause of tho increased amount of
alum in city water.
The commissioner explained thati
during his tenure of olfice the supply
of alum used in filtering the city's
water supply has been reduced be
tween thirty-five and forty per cent.
The newspaper letter, he declared,
dealt only with the three years prior
to Mr. Bowman's incumbency despite
the fact that the correct figures and
data on the subject are always avail
able at the water department's offices.
"In 1912," said Mr. Bowman,
"369,994 pounds of alum were used to
filter the water; In 1914 the amount
was reduced fo 217,071 pounds, a de
crease of 152,923 pounds. This In it
self means a saving of $1,529.23. By
the end of this year the showing is
bound to bo better.
Why Fast Site Is Unlit For Basin
"As to the use of the proposed
wharf site for sedimentation basins,
anybody who would have practicabil
ity, economy and efficiency in mind
would certainly not consider the erec
tion of an additional basin on the cast
side of the present dike. On the west
side there is very much more room."

hem One Tiling; Judge Another
Special to The Telegraph
I South Bethlehem, Pa., Feb. IJ..
.That the State school authorities do
not yet recognize South Bethlehem as
a city was evident to-dav, when
Treasurer John Donegan, of'the local
school board, received a check for
$360. which is the amount the State
gives to first class high schools in bor
oughs. The question of South Bethle
hem being a city or borough is now in

opinion in the Easton court In the suit
brought by the local saloonkeepers
asking that they be allowed to pay
their liquor license of $250 per year
under the borough plan until the legal
status of South Bethlehem be deter
mined instead of being compelled to
pay $550 under the city plan of gov
ernment.. in which he decreed that the
city tax shall be paid.
