! the attention of the general commit-
I tee of arrangements for the Charity
Ball.
11 The committee yesterday an
il nounced a portion of the personnel of
■i the honorary committer, and the
f plans for the opening of the sale of
| boxes.
The Honorary I.lst
Forty or more names have already
i been added to the honorary list and
I'hese include many of Harrisburg's
well known men and women. Other
names are being added daily and by
Saturday the committee, it is ex-
I pected, will number at least a hun
dred. Here are those alreadv en
rolled:
j Miss Mary Cameron, Dr. and Mrs.
John C. Bullitt, Mrs. J. Hervv Pat
ton. Mrs. Benjamin F. Africa, Mrs.
Joseph Claster, Mrs. Joseph Xach
man. Mrs. Herman Astrich, Arthur D.

man. Lewis X. Xeiffer. Mrs. H. P.
• Dunbar, Dr. John A. Fritchey and F
. Brenner.
The box sale will be opened at 10
o'clock Saturday morning' at the C
M. Slgler music house, 26 North Sec
ond street.
| All told there will be but sixteen
i boxes for sale. The number Is neces
sarily limited in order to allow more
dancing space. Here is the plan the
committee has adopted:
The boxes will cost $25 each, the
location to be decided by lot. Any
purchaser, however, by paying an ad
ditional sls will be given an oppor
tunity to make his own choice of site,
under the "first come, first served"
rule. He can exercise this option
when he pays his additional sls. Inci
dentally the committee announced
that the purchases must be made in
j person or by personal representative
[as the numl>er of boxes is ton few and
| the demands too numerous to permit
[applications to be handled by 'phone'
or matl trrder. Each box will have
seating capacity Xor ten. i
HUGE RISE IN
PRICE OF DRUGS
Increase of From 250 to 1,800
Per Cent. Due to Use in Mak
ing War Material
A rise in the price of drugs if the
war continues much longer is inevit
able, according to druggists.
Nearly every time a pharmacist fills
a prescription at its original price he
loses money, it was declared to-day,
and the conditions cannot continue in
definitely. The present high prices
of drugs and chemicals have never
been equaled, even in the times of our
own Civil War, it was said.
An Increase of 1800 per cent, in the
price of phenaCetin since'the outbreak
of the war is quoted by the Pennsylva
[ nia Pharmaceutical Association in a
ilist which shows the more remark
[able jumps in price. Others showing
extraordinary increases in prices are
potassium bromide, quinine and car
bolic acid. Many of the drugs, such
as belladonna, owe their inflated price
to the fact that they are largely culti
vated In and exported from Germany
and Austria. The coal tar products
are now high because many of the
basic substances are used In the manu
facture of explosive*;. Carbolic acid is
used in the production of picric acid
or lyddite and quinine is high because
of the groat demand for it in the treat
ment of febrile conditions among
Iroops In the trenches.
A list of percentage increase in
many drugs, issued by the Pennsylva
nia Pharmaceutical Association, is as
follows:
Increased
Per Cent.
Acetanllid 400
Belladonna 700
Caffeine 250
Phcnolphthalein TOO
Potassium bromide 1500
Quinine 1200
Sage 500
Salol 800
Antipyrin . 400
Carbolic acid 1000
Calomel 200
Naphthalene 500
Phenacetin 1800
Potassium permanganate 700
Saccharin . 800
j Salicylic acid 900
iThymol 800
BI.OOD STAINS ON HAT
Win. HE ANALYSED
The stained nat taken from Nikolo
Kotur. charged with the murder of
Yoao Haklc, both of Steelton. Is being:
held by District Attorney Michael K.
Stroup and will be turned over to City
RacterlologUt George R. Moffitt later
in the week. It was said to-day. Owing
to sessions of the January Criminal
Court, the hat has been held by the
diatrict attorney.
Dr. Moffitt said that the condition of
the stain* on the hat would determine
how soon lie could tell positively
whether or not they were human bl lod
spots. As soon as he receives the hat
he intends to analyse the stain*. Kotur.
at the preliminary hearing, said that
the spots were caused by arid dropping
on his hat while lie was working at
the Pennsylvania Steel Company.
ACID STOMACHS IRE
DANGEROUS
"Acid" Stomach* are dangerous he
cause acid irritates and inflames the
delicate lining; of the stomach, thus
hindering: and preventing the proper
action of the stomach, and leading- to
probably nine-tenths of the cases of
stomach trouble from which people suf
fer. Ordinary medicines thai act mere
ly upon the stomach Itself are ueeles.K in
such i ase», for they leave the source of
the trouble, the acid in (he stomach, hs
dangerous as ever. The acid must In
neutralised. and its accumulation l)r< -
vented, and the best thine for this pur
pose in a teaspoonful of Biaurated Mac-,
nesia. a simple antacid, taken In a l|tti»>
warm or cold water after eating, which
not only neutralizes the acid, but also
prevents the fermentation. Foods whlc'i
ordinarily cause distress may be eaten
with Impunity If the meal Is follow d
with a little Blsurated Magnesia which
can be obtained from any druggist and
should always be kept handy.—Adver
