Get Rid of Rheumatism
An Easy Matter with Rheuma, the
Marvelous Remedy for the Disease
Drive out the uric acid from the
joints. Get every particle of this poi
sonous matter out of your system, and
keep it out.
You can do It with Rheuma, a sci
entific prescription that acts at once
on kidneys, stomach, liver and blood;
dissolves the uric acid and causes
rheumatic agony to vanish.
Read this proof: "After treatment
by three doctors, without result. I
hava been cured of a very bad case of
r! eumatism by using two bottles of
tieuma. It is now two years since I
ed the remedy, and I am still as
well aa ever. Previously I was a crip
ple, walking with crutches."—Judge
John Barhorst, Fort Loramie, Ohio.
H. C. Kennedy thinks well enough
of Rheuma to offer it on the "no
cure, no-pay" plan at 50 cents.—Ad

COLD STORAGE ACT
FOR NEXT SESSION
Governor Makes Suggestion in Act
ing on the Buckman Senate
Measure Veto
As a result of Governor Brum
baugh's veto of the Buckman cold
storage bill last night the act of 1813
remains in force, but It is probable
that before long the governor will
take steps to secure some discussion
of the conditions which have been
complained of by the trade with the
State officials and endeavor to reach
t way to secure a satisfactory bill next
session.
The governor has given long con
sideration to the cold storage situa
tion, it became known to-day, and was
in consultation with all sides. He
was given a plain statement from the
official side with the views of attor
neys and chemists and also heard
from the cold storage people.
It Is probable that steps to have a
conference will be taken late In the
summer and moves made for agree
ment upon a bill.
The governor said In his veto: "The
purpose of food laws is to protect the
consuming public, and to prevent
frauds and deception in the sale of
food products. These laws should
make impossible the sale or offering
for sale of decayed, decomposed or
unwholesome foods. This bill, in
tended by its framers to accomplish
only good is protested by many con
sumers and by the dairy and food di
vision of the Department of Agricul
ture. The present law applies to cold
storage plants where products are
kept thirty days or more. The pres
ent bill changes this to sixty days,
enabling foodstuffs to be in storage
59 days and not to be counted as cold
storage food. This would not work
to the good of the consuming public.
This bill does not require the retailer
to label cold storage products. The
public, under existing laws, do find
such products labelled. This would
open the way for the to an un
knowing public of the very sorts of
food products that food laws are de
signed to prohibit."
The Governor also objects to the
provision giving the commissioner au
thority to permit the extension, saying
it is too much power for any one in
dividual. He says that the present
law may be drastic. "If so, and
it works any injustice to legiti
mate dealers and companies engaged
in this important storage business the
proper course is to get together and
keeping in mind the purposes of cold
storage laws and the welfare of the
public, makes such amendments as
all parties in interest may, with those
to whom is committed the Important
duty of safeguarding the people, agree
are wise and proper. Such a bill
would bp at the next session a wel
come solution of a very vexing and
difficult problem."

Public Spirited People Offer
40,000 Barrels of Cement and
Probably Much Stone
The cement Industries of Eastern
Pennsylvania and public spirited citi
zens in L«hlgh and Northampton
counties have entered into an agree
ment with the State Highway Depart
ment to furnish sufficient cement to
build a road twelve miles in length,
running from the borough line of Al
lentown to the borough line of Bethle
hem and continuing from the borough
line of Bethlehem to Easton. Accord
ing to the estimates of the State High
way Department, this will require up
wards of 40,000 barrels of cement.
Plans are under way also to have
these citizens furnish, in addition, the
amount of stone which will be neces
sary to construct this improved high
way.
A conference was held late yester
day afternoon in the office of State
Highway Commissioner Cunningham,
at which Col H. E. Trailer, Congress
man H. J. Steele, H. R. Fehr, presi
dent of the Lehigh Valley Transit
Company, G. S. Brown, president of
the Alpha Portland Cement Company,
William B. Myers, representing the
Bethlehem Steel Company and Sena
tor Horace \V. Sehantz. presented the
offer of the Associated Cement Com
panies and the citizens of that dis
trict.
The proposition was made that the
State Highway Department do the
necessary grading; and pay the ex
pense of such engineering changes as
might be necessary and build the
road. A letter was drawn up to the
Commissioner pledging the cement in
dustries to furnish 40,000 barrels of
cement, or such part thereof as might
be needed for use on the road. An
other letter was drawn up pledging
the Lehigh Valley Transit Company to
furnish SI,OOO worth of transporta
tion for the freighting of the cement.
Col. Trexler and the other members
of the delegation agreed to take up
the project of furnishing the neces
sary stone and promised to advise
Commissioner Cunningham of this at
an early date.
Mr. Cunningham also received a
delegation from the borough of
Muncy. in Lycoming county. Thf
delegation, which consisted of Charles
Metzger. president of the Borough
Council, Robert K. Reeder, the Burg
ess. F. M. Sproat. and County Com
missioner O. C. Brass, sought to have
the State Highway Department begin
work on a State-aid Highway running
through Muncy. After some discus
sion the delegation was asked to re
turn home and to decide among them
selves which end of the proposed
highway they would rather have .done
first as the apportionment of State
aid money for Lycoming county is in
sufficient to permit of the entire
amount being done.
