In addition to the* above penalties
many cases oi dirty and disfigured li

number of drivers of horse-drawn ve

which provides that they shall drive
to the right side of the road at all
times and to avoid driving in the street
car tracks. Many teamsters have been
turning short corners Instead of mak
ing the turn beyond the center of the
intersection.
One of the officers has been very
complimentary in his remarks about
the drivers of the "jitney" cars and
says that as a class the "Jitney" driv
ers are observing the laws better than
the general class of drivers. The mot
orcycle drivers are also making every
effort to co-operate and observe the
laws.
Every automobile driver may at
times break some of the laws but
the movement of the Motor Club is to
make an effort to live up to the or
dinances BO ;hat the careful drtvers
are not censured for offenses of a few
reckless operators.

Property owners say that in the very
nature of the case a gas main was a
necessity in the street, and if it is rec

the necessity might have been easily
foreseen. They also say that It is just
such incidents as this that arouse
sometimes undue antagonism against
public service corporations. Putting

leave this much-traveled thoroughfare
in bad condition all summer, and as

MOTHER'S ADVICE
"Every Young Girl Should Use It"
McKeesport, Pa.—"When T was 15
years old, my mother being dead, a lady
insisted on my using Dr. Pierce's Fa
vorite Prescription. 1 cannot tell you
how glad I was of this and how I wish
every young girl would use it at this
time. I am now 45 years of age, have
had 13 children, seven of whom are
well, strong boys and girls. With the
first four children I used 'Favorite
Prescription' as well as Tleasont Pel
lets,' according to directions, both be
fore and after and had very little trou
ble. Occasiors come now when I turn
to Dr. Pierce's remedies for help and
they never fail. The 'Pleasant Pellets'
have been a 'stand-by' with me for
years for sick headache, constipation,
etc. They do all you claim for them."
MBS. FRANK H, MILBLBN, 2323 Fifth
Avenue, McKeesport, Pa.
Heed the warnings of nature. Back
ache, headache, low spirits, lassitude
and pains are hard enough to bear.
Act! Don't wait! If you are a suffer
er, if your daughter, mother, sister
need help get Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription in liquid or tablet form
from any medicine dealer to-day. The
medicine that every woman needs when
fassing through "the changing days,
t is not a secret prescription, for its
ingredients are printed on the wrapper;
it's a temperance medicine.
Not only does it build up the entire
system and make it strong and vigor
ous enough to withstand the organic
disturbances, but it has a quieting
effect upon the feminine organism.
Book on Women's Diseases sent free.
Write Dr. Pierce, Invalids' Hotel, Buf
falo, N. Y., for free confidential advice.
Constipation causes and seriously ag
gravates many diseases. It is thoroughly
cured by Doctor Pierce's Pellets. One a
laxative; two or three a cathartic.
