HEN THIEVES
DISTURBING PEACE
Dauphin Farmers and Poultry
Fanciers Waiting For Marauders
With Guns
Special to Til* TtUtraph
Dauphin, Pa., Feb. 12.—Chicken
thieves have been destroying the usual
peacefulness and harmony of Dauphin
lately. On Sunday and Monday
night* chickens were stolen from the
yards of David Hoffman, Miss Mar
garet Kobinson and the Misses Gay
man. Although nothing was seen of
the thieves, broken locks and empty
chicken houses were found. The whole
town is on the lookout for the thieves
and the village farmer and chicken
fancier is watching nightly with a
gun under his arm and one eye open.

Quickly Relieves
Without Distress
The congestion of waste and
refuse in the stomach, ferment
ing in the bowels, generates poi
sonous gases that occasion dis
tress and invite serious illness.
Health and comfort demand that
this congestion be speedily re
lieved and the foul mass expelled.
The well-founded objection most
people have to the violence of ca
thartic and purgative agents is
overcome by using the combina
tion of simple laxative herbs with
pepsin that is sold in drug stores
under tho name of Dr. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin. A dose at night
brings relief next morning, with
out discomfort or inconvenience.
A free trial bottle can be obtained
by writing to Dr. W. B. Caldwell,

WORK MOVES RAPIDLY
ON RR/ER FRONT FILL
Park Commissioner Taylor is show
-1 ing much energy in the rough filling
of the riyer embankment north of the
! "Hardscrabble" district. Last summer
there was a question as to whether
sufficient filling material would be
available and after a conference be
tween Commissioner Taylor and the
city's landscape architect, Warren H.
.Manning, of Hoston. it was decided to
create a depressed walk in that section
of the front as the best form of treat
ment. Late in thq fall some work
was done on this walk in the vicinity
of ittuench street, but subsequently
when Commissioner Taylor found it
possible to get filling material from
the excavation for the union freight
station he abandoned the depressed
walk plan and proceeded to fill out a
width sufficient to provide a walk on
a level with the street beyond the
western curb line.
The change was a disappointment to
many people in view of the fact that

the depressed walk involved certain
features of planting and public use
which were particularly attractive.
Under the Manning plan there would
have been a fringe of short hedge
along the western curb and a short
terrace to the walk covered by matri
mony vine. The walk would have
been sufficiently below the level of the
street to provide privacy for those sit
ting upon the benches or walking along
the Front and would have been a safe
guard for children.
Park Commissioner Taylor's view,
however, was that material now being
available, there were stronger reasons
now for creating the walk along the
top of the embankment.
7,000 Tons ol' Fill
To date approximately 7,000 tons of
earth have been dumped over the em
bankment north of "1 lardscrabble"
under the direction of the park de
partment. This dirt is being hauled to
the point by great motor trucks from
the excavations on the site of the pro
posed Pennsy freight station in South
hecond street.
Commissioner Taylor has planned
to begin the planting of shrubberv
and vines incident to the treatment of
the river slopes just as soon as the
weather permits.
"As soon as the frost is out of the
ground we will begin the treutment of
the embankment." said he. "This of
course, will be followed by the plant
ing. The planting scheme includes
the setting out of shrubber.v, matri
mony vine and barbary bushes in
such a way as to provide support to
the slopes and help beautifv the em
bankment at the same time/'

CHILDREN LOVE
SYRUP OF FIGS
If feverish, bilious, constipated,
give fruit laxative
at once
Tion't scold your fretful, peevish
child. See if tongue Is coated; this is
a sure sign Its little stomueh, liver and
bowels arc clogged with sour waste.
When listless, pale, feverish, full of
cold, breath bad, throat sore, doesn't
eat, sleep or act naturally, has stom
achache, Indigestion, dlarrhwa, give
a tcaspoonful of "California Syrup of
Figs," and in a few hours all the foul
waste, the sour bile and fermenting
food passes out of the bowels and you
have a well and playful child again.
Children love this harmless "fruit
laxative." and mothers can rest easy
after giving 'ti because it never fails
to make their little "lnsldes" clean
and sweet.
! Keep It handy. Mother! A little
| given to-da.v saves a sick child to
morrow, but fret the genuine. Ask
! your druggist for a 50-cent bottle of
1 "California Syrup of Figs," which has
• directions for babies, children of all

I the bottle. Remember there are
' counterfeits sold here, so surely look
