I USE "TIZ" FOR
SORE, TIRED FEET
"TIZ" for puffed-up, aching,
smarting, calloused feet
and corns.
Good-bye sore feet, burn tag feet,
swollen feet, smelling feei, tired
feet.
Good-bye corns, callouses. bunions
and raw spots. No more shoe tight
ness. no more limping with pain or
drawing up your face in agony. "TIZ"
is magical, acts right oft. "TIZ" draws
out all the poisonous exudations which
puff up the feet—the only remedy that
does. Use "TIZ" and wear smaller
shoes. Ah! how comfortable your feet
will feel. "TIZ" is a delight. "TIZ"
is harmless.
Get a 2 6 -cent box 01* "TIZ" now at
«ny druggist or department store.
Don't suffer. Have good feet, glad
feet, feet that never swell, never hurt,
never get tired. A year's foot comfort
Kuaranteed or money refunded.
BOWMAN I CO. IN ~
BUSINESS 44 YEARS
Anniversary Is Being Marked by
Erection of Handsome New
Building
Bowman & Company are celebrat
ing their forty-fourth anniversary this
week. The business which ranks high
among the progressive and fast-grow
ing establishments of Central Penn
sylvania was founded in 1871 in a lit
tle store room at 228 Market street
under the firm name of C. L. Bowman
& Company.
From time to time as the business
«rew, changes of location were made
in order to secure larger quarters, the
last being made in 1895 when the
business was removed from 215 Mar
ket street to its present location, 316
Market street.
Within the past few years the Grand
Hotel property adjoining the main
building was purchased and the addi
tional floor space thus secured util
ized.
The limited facilities of this building
have now outlived their usefulness,
and as a result rebuilding operations
are now being conducted which will
tranform the old hotel property into a
modern structure, with a front con
forming to the imposing front of the
main building.
J. K. Bowman, under whose guid
ance the business enjoyed a pleasing
growth for many years, has within
the rt 'ent past associated with him in
the firm his two sons, J. W. Bowman
and H. H. Bowman, both of whom
have been Identified with the business
for a long time.
The occasion Is being celebrated by
the store this week with a Forty
fourth Anniversary Sale, full particu
lars regarding which are being an
nounced from day to day in this paper.
Many unique features distinguish the
event which had a successful opening

Aged Millionaire Is
Sued by Young Wife
Special to The Telegraph
Pittsburgh, June 7. Alleging fraud
against her marital viKhts. Effie Pope
Hill Alsop, the young wife of Edward
B. Alsop, an aged millionaire of this
city, filed a bill in equity yesterday
morning in common pleas court in
which she seeks to have a deed of trust
executed by her husband on the day
before bis marriage, set aside. The
wive avers that the conveyance was a
fraud upon her marital'rights; that her
husband, in immediate contemplation of
his marriage to her, intended to defeat
and destroy her rights and interests in
real estate and properties worth several
million dollars, to which she. as his
lawful wife, would be entitled.
The young wife asks that Edward B.
AElsop and Reese D. Alsop, as trustees
in the deed, be required to reconvey, by
good and sufficient deed, all of six
properties, some of them valuable
downtown real estate Included In the
deed of trust, free arid discharged of

PAXTANG PARK
The vaudeville bill that Mr. Davis is
putting on at his Paxtang Park play
house this week Is one that any man
ager might well he proud of. A trained
chimpanzie, "Lady Betty," Is the head
line act. and when It comes to trained
animals, "Betty" Is a little ahead ot
anything that we have ever seen in
Harrisburg. The big monkey is an al
most convincing argument in favor of
the Darwinian theory of the descent of
man. The way In which she does her
work on the stage and the great va
riety of ways In which "Betty" does
things that only human beings are sup
posed to be capable of accomplishing,
clearly demonstrates that this ohim
panzie, at least, is possessed of some
thing nearly akin to human Intelli
gence.
Nan Aker, presents a ventriloquil
novelty entitled, "On the B. & O," that
was a big hit with the park audience.
There Is plenty of comedy In Miss
Aker's act. and sho handles It in an al
together pleasing manner.
Hamilton Parks, a ballad singer with
an exceptionally good voice, kept his
audience 111 good humor with some par
ticularly apt comedy songs.
I.lttle Alliight, a Japanese equilib
rist and Juggler, presents some new
feats In oriental jugglery that were
cordially received by «the park audi
ence, while the Tiller Sisters were par
ticularly entertaining with a scries of
the latest song hits.—Advertisement.

a hotel employe, would have met the
same fate.

frightened girl pleading for help as
she was swept along by the irresisti
ble undertow, saw Stubel, an athlete,
and 'Stoney," fighting as best he
could the heavy seas with but one
arm, effect as daring a rescue as was
ever marked down to the credit of
the city's trained guards.
For the first time in years in June
the guards were withdrawn from duty
this morning. When the men appear
ed for duty they were told by Beach
Director Bossert their services would
not be required. According to Bossert
bis orders came from W. H. Bartlett,
Director of Public Safety.

DDK COUNTY GETS
ONLY ROAD ROUTE
Governor Issues a Statement Giv
ing His Reason For Approving
RudisiU's Bill
Governor Brumbaugh to-day ap
proved the only addition to the State
system of main highways to get
through the Legislature. It is located
in Adams county and is to connect
the battlefield with the Maryland line.
In approving the bill the Governor
issued this statement: "The Governor
is opposed to increasing the mileage
of State highways. lie thinks the
mileage ought to be reduced. He is
convinced that many routes are now
on the list for no other than political
reasons. They can't be gotten rid of.
But this five miles is historic. Meade's
army used it. It ought to be a main
highway into Maryland. Solely be
cause of Its historic associations this
bill is approved."
The Governor also announced his
approval of the Kuhn bill authorizing
employment of convicts on highways
at 25 cents a day. The detail for such
work is to be voluntary on the part
of the convict and in no way be com
pulsory. The men may be detailed
when asked by State, county, town
ship or municipal officers in charge
of roads and the pay is to accumulate
until the sentence ends, unless convict
petitions fdr payment toward support
of family.
Approval was also announced of
the Willard bill amending the nurses'
registration act. This provides that
the records shall be kept in the De
partment of Health, that $5,000 may
be retained in the registration board
treasury instead of $1,000; that $lO
shall be the application fee; that
reciprocity may be had with other
States having regulations equal to
those in Pennsylvania; that the board
shall prepare reports on training
schools for nurses and that a State
educational director of training for
nurses shall be named at $1,400 a year.

proved were:
Authorizing a written demand for a
jury trial and authorizing courts to
