JAN'I" VRY COMMON PLEAS IS CONCLUDED THIS AFTERNOON January Common Pleas Court formally adjourned for the week this afternoon after the assumpsit suit brought by Catherine Marshall against the Central Trust Company, adminis trator for the estate of Catherine Finn, RECIPE 10 CLEAR ft If PLY SKIN Pimples Are Impurities Seeking An Outlet Through Skin Pores Pimples, sores and boils usually re sult from toxins, poisons and impuri ties which are generated in the bowels and then absorbed into the blood j through the very ducts which should absorb only nourishment to sustain the body. It is the function of the kidnevs to filter impurities from the blood" and i-ast them out in the form of urine, but in many instances the bowels create more toxins and impurities than the kidneys can eliminate, then the blood uses the skin pores as the next best means of getting rid of these impuri ties which often break out all over the skin In the form of pimples. The surest way to clear the skin of these eruptions, says a noted author ity, is to get from any pharmacy about four ounces of Jad Salts and take a tablespoonful in a glass of hot water each morning before breakfast for one week. This will prevent the formation of toxins in the bowels. It also stimu lates the kidneys to normal activity thus coaxing them to filter the bloo'd of impurities and clearing the skin of pimples. Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice combined with lithia. Here you have a pleasant, effervescent drink which usually makes pimples disappear; cleanses the blood and is excellent for the kidneys as well i Advertisement.

You will find, too, that all itching i and digging of the scalp will stop, and ■ your hair will look and feel a hundred 1 times better. You can get liquid arvon lat any drug store. It is inexpensive | and four ounces is all you will need. 1 no matter how much dandruff you | have. This simple remedy never fails. 1 —Advertisement.

President Edward I)app, of , the Jury Commis sioners. made the request. The two rooms in which juries are sent to deliberate are used more or less as storerooms. As both are com paratively small anyway, the facilities ' for the jurors are necessarily limited, i The chairs are the same chairs that have seen service since beyond the ken i of the oldest tipstaff. This is also true i of the tables. Mr. Dapp wants the county to refurnish the rooms, install i more comfortable tables and chairs , and clear the rooms of unnecessarv i material. | At the Register's Offit-e.—The will of ; Luther R.

In December, 1915, tonnage originating on one division, which Is looked upon as indicative of conditions on the entire system, amounted to 754.723 tons, while in 1909 the tonnage in December was 786.158. These figures do not include coal and coke. In December, 1915, the increase in tonnage over December, 1914, was 64.4 per cent., the total for December, .1914, being 456,190. For the year 1915 the total tonnage was 8,269,115, as against 7,387,962. representing an increase in 1915 of 11.9 per cent. Only three years since 1905 show a total tonnage less than that of 1915, these years being 1908. 1911 and 1914. Tonnage figures for 1913 showed an increase over 1912 each month of the >ear until October, when there was a decrease of 1.5 per cent, from the same month of 1912. From October, 1913, to April, 1915, the tonnage each month was less than the same month of the previous year. Starting with May, 1&15, an increase was reported each month, the increase growing from 5.4 per cent; in that month to 64.4 per cci *. in December . For the entire year of 1915 the ton nage reports on the one division show the following figures for each month: Month. Tons. January 499,234 February 4 90,94 7 March 575,105 April 594,920 May 635.126 June 721,120 July 746,570 August 802,053 September 850,137 October 811.571 November 787,519 December 754^723 Totals 8.269,115 The embargo on shipments to New York and vicinity during the months of November and December kept down tonnage, which accounts for the de crease in these months from the Oc tober figures. | BOARD DISCUSSES NEW HIGH SCHOOL Harrisburg's new High school prob lem was discussed' this afternoon at the regular meeting of the directors when the letter of the Chamber of Commerce suggesting the names of five well-known men as a committee to assist the board was read. The Chamber recommended that the committee act with such committee or committees as may be appointed by President A. C. Stamm in accordance with >lr. Stamm's own plan. The personnel of the committee from the commerce body consists of William Jennings, formerly president of the Board of Public Works; Arthur D. Bacon, formerly president of Se lect Council; William M. Donaldson, Francis J. Hall, of the City Planning Commission, and E. A. Hefflfinger of the East End bank. The letter is as follows: "The Cham ber of Commerce has observed, with much interest, the published sugges tion, recently made by the president of your board that a committee of five citizens, not members of the board, be chosen to confer with the board on the question of improved high school facilities. The adoption by the board of such a suggestion will be very grati fying tothe public, since it will evi dence a natural and proper desire on the part of the board to take the public into its confidence in the solu tion of such an important problem. "While it is true that your board is the body chosen by the public to administer the affairs relating to the conduct of the public schools, and it I must take the initial and ultimate | responsibility, it is also true that, in i the solution of problems so import - jant as this one, the citizens, indi vidually, should actively share with your board the responsibility for such a solution as will be of greatest bene | tit to all concerned, and it would seem I they could best express their opinion 'to all the citizens through such an in dependent representative body, as the | proposed committee. I "Inasmuch as this chamber, as I stated in its by-laws is composed of j persons interested in the advancement of Harrisburg, and has among its pur | poses, the development of Harrisburg, |it is happy to assure your board in this i manner of its desire and willingness jto help in any way within its power :and to venture to submit, for your con sideration. for membership upon an advisory committee if the board should determine to appoint one, the names iof William Jennings, Arthur D.

Mr. Bethell said: "No one can doubt that prosperity is with us right now. Everywhere you go the evidence is unmistakable. It is not only the war order business. It is a general revival through practically all lines and it is with us at least un til the war ends and then no one can tell what the necessary readjust ment will bring forth." Mr. Bethell stated that figures for the year 1915 for the entire Bell Tele phone system were not yet available when he left New York, but taking the figures for eleven months and estimating December, it is probable that the gross earnings of the en tire system for the year were about $240,000,000, as compared with $225,- 952,123 for 1914.
