Face Fashions
This Year
Demand That the Complexion Be
Made Clear and Clean and
Nothing Aids the Skin
Like Stuart's Calcium
Wafers.
All styles of dress this year make
it necessary that every woman re
move pimples, blotches, etc. This
condition is brought about by reason
of the fact that the colors used and
style of hair dress throw the face in
a position of prominence that will
make pimples, etc., very hideous if
they exist.

FOUND NEW WAY TO
INCREASE WEIGHT
Thinks Many Thin People Get No
More Than Half Value From
Their Meals

If the sugar you put In your morn
ings coffee had not dissolved it
would not have sweetened your coffee.
If fifty per cent, of the flesh, fat and
tissue building nourishment. of your
meals is never assimilated by your
blood but is continually leaving your
body as waste, it is no wonder vou
stay thin, rundown, lack strength and
:ne from ten to twenty-five pounds un
derweight.
Numerous tests seem to prove that
many thin people stay thin because of
defective assimilation of their food.
They cat enough but get little or no
good from it and seemingly have missed
the link between food eatitig and flesh
making.
In an effort to correct this condition
there has been found a preparation
called Sargol which , when taken at
meals, helps to prepare the nourishing
flesh-building properties of your food,
so that the blood may more readily ab
sorb them. Sargol's aim is to develop
the flesh-building values in your food,
in improve your assimilation and to
check the wastes of valuable nourish
ment that may now be going on in your
system. Its action is both natural and
harmless and its results can be judged
from the gratifying reports of many of
its users who tell of weight increases
ranging from ten to twenty-five pounds
that followed its use. G. A. Gorgas
and many other leading druggists are
offering Sargol to their customers,
guaranteeing to refund the full pur
i-nase price where satisfactory weight
incrase is not obtained from its use

Helped Him
So many cases like this are coming
to our attention that we are publish
ing this letter for the benefit of Har
tisburg people who are in Mr. Kelly's
condition. Read our offer below.
Clarksville, Tenn. "I am a County
Court Clerk, and became run-down,
no appetite, was drowsy and felt badly
most of the time, I had tried several
remedies without benefit. One day I
read an advertisement of Vinol and at
once tried it. In a short time my ap
petite improved, my strength increased
1 I felt better in every way." S. W.
Kelly.
reason Vinol is so successful in
such cases is because it is an un
equalled tonic-body-builder, combin
ing native wine, the oldest and most
famous tonics known to medicine.
So strong is our faith in Vinol that
we offer to return the purchaser's
money in every case if Vinol should
fail to give satisfactory results.

GOLDSMITH MOVES
David Kaufman Takes Over
SIO,OOO Stock of Old Busi
ness Place
810 FIBNITUBK CHANGE
Long Established House Leases
Cluster Building to Take
Care of Growing Business
Commercial and real estate changes
in the heart of the city continue to be
the talg of business 'circles. Follow
ing the purchase of the L,. W. Cook
and Jerauld stores by Dives. Pomeroy
and Stewart, it was announced today
that David Kaufman, oi" the Kaufman
Underselling Stores, had purchased the
stock of the Harris Cohen store, 202
Market street, one of the oldest
stands, if not the very oldest, in the
downtown district.
It also became known that Joseph
Goldsmith, one of the best-known
furniture dealers and upholsterers in
Harrisbnrg, will remove shortly from
his present place of business, 206 and
2OH Walnut street, extending through
to Locust, to the building occupied by
Joseph (Master, wholesale jobber of
clothing and notions, North Mar
ket Square. ilr. Claster has leased
the Harrar and Chamberlain property
at 119 South Front street, which he
will-occupy as soon as arrangements
can 'ie made.
in addition it was rumored about
town this afternoon that a well-known
Reading merchant is looking for a
site in Harrisburg with the purpose of
establishing another department store
here. It is also known that a number
of local business men are inquiring Col
locations with more floor space than
they have .-it present and the outlook
is bright for good business all through
the year with many changes in lo
cation this spring. In nearly every in
stance the old stores mat have given
way lo changed business conditions
and the march of the city's progress
will be replaced by new enterprises or
enlargements of present business
places. More and more the city is
becoming the shopping and buying
center of all Central Pennsylvania.
The Cohen Purchase *
Mr. Kauti titan told a reporter for
the Telegraph that he took over the
Cohen store to-day and had already
begun to remove the stock, valued at
more than SIO,OQO, to his stores on
Market Square. Mr. Kauffman said
he is much pleased with the purchase
in view of the fact that Mr. Cohen
carried many exclusive lines of wo
men's notions, corsets and hair goods,
and underwear ior men, women and
children which will now go out
through his store. Mr. Cohen's busi
ness was one of the most tirmly estab
lished in the city and it was only ad
vancing age that caused his retire
ment.
The rise of Karris Cohen in the busi
ness eircies of llarrisburg is one of the
romances of local commercial life.
Air. Cohen came to Xew York from
Vilna. Russia, at the time of "the
Crimean war and located in New
York. Shortly before the outbreak
of the Civil war he became a peddler
and worked throughout Virginia,
Maryland, Pennsylvania and nearby
States. After some thrilling ex
periencs between the lines in Maryland
during the war, when he narrowly
escaped death at the hands oj.' the
rebels, who accused him of being a
spy, he came to Harrisburg and lo
cated in a little shop near where the
Market Square Presbyterian Church
now stands and began the manufac
ture of hoop-skirts, then in the height
of fashion. He made money rapidly
and there laid the foundation of the
large fortune of which he is now the
possessor, in 1865 he removed to his
present site, 202 Market street, and
continued the manufacture of hoop
skirts until they went out of style some
ten years later, when he began to
develop the business which the Kauf
man Underselling Stores took over
to-day. In addition to being a reliable
and respected merchant, Mr. Cohen is
interested in many of the large in
dustrial and public service enterprises
of the city and in real estate.
The Goldsmith Transfer
The removal of the furniture and
upholstery store of Joseph Goldsmith
to 6'/4 X. Market Square give him pos
session of a building Ideally adapted
to his purposes and very centrally lo
cated, being directly opposite the now
stopping place of the Valley Traction
cars in tiie Square. Mr. Goldsmith,
Sr., and Lee Goldsmith, his son, who
is associated in business with him,
will make extensive changes in the
building they have just leased. The
stock carried by the Goldsmith estab
lishment is a select character and the
alterations to be made will be to give
character and proper setting for the
various styles and patterns to be dis
played 011 each floor. Mr. Goldsmith's
patronage is not confined to Harris
burg, but extends all through the
Central Pennsylvania field and beyond.
Joseph Goldsmith's commercial
career in Harrisburg dates back to
1881, when he started business as
an upholsterer at Front and Market
streets and later as an upholsterer
and furniture dealer at 109 Market
street, under thhe firm name of Gold
smith and Fry, the senior member of
the firm being the late Amos Fry.
About 35 years ago Mr. Goldsmith
moved to 206 street, where
he engaged in business for himself.
Five years later he secured a lease on
the Hunter property in Walnut street,
and remodeled the Locust and Wal
nut street properties into one large
store building. Subsequently, Mr.
Goldsmith moved his upholstering de
partment to the Hursh building in
Court street, part of which is also used
as ware rooms for the firm.
Business has grown so rapidly that
Mr. Goldsmith has been seeking larger
quarters and he feels fortunate in ob
taining the Market Square property.
He is arranging for a special sale of
his present stock, in order that he may
open his new store with a complete
stock of the newest things in furni
ture.

ALL THE NEWS OF
HARRISBURG'S FIRST P
Ht,. ■' "" " ' - ,$ r
This station stood at the Northeast corner of Market street and Meadow Lane.. It was erected in 1837 by
the Harrisbnrg. Portsmouth, Mt. Joy and Lancaster Railroad Company; and leased by the Pennsylvania Rail
road Company, April 21. 1849. It was torn down in 1856 to make room for the second station which was com
pleted in 1857. The present Pennsylvania station was completed November 1. 1887.
The first station was a frame structure. The above picture was drawn from memory by George
Kucher Ayers, one of Harrisburg's early architects. The picture from which the above plate was made, with a
picture of the second station, was presented to K. N. Jones, retired passenger engineer, 504 Calder street by
William Bender Wilson, a former Harrigburger, who is the recognized authority on historical matters pertain

ECONOMY HELPS
RAILROAD GAINS
Holding Up Maintenance Also
Factor in Becent Financial
Showing
Gross earnings per mile of the rail
ways of the United States for Septem
ber, October and November, 1915, com
bined, were 15 per cent, greater, and
net earnings per mile were 38 per cent,
greater, than in the corresponding
months of 1914, says the Railway Age
Gazette in atr article on the present sit
uation of the railways, based on the
complete reports of railway earnings
and expenses for November, which
have just been issued.
Compared with 1912, however, the
year in which the railways last han
dled a big business, the increase in
gross earnings per mile was only 1.7
per cent., while the increase in net
was 12 per cent. The Railway Age
says:
"It is much more instructive to com
pare the statistics for the fall months
of 1915 with those for the fall months
of 1912. when the railways last han
dled a big business. The comparison
shows that in the three months of Sep
tember, October and November, 1915,
the fiet earnings of the railways per
mile were $1,488. or $159 greater than
in the corresponding months of 1912,
an advance of 12 per cent.
"It also shows that, part of this in
crease in net earnings was due to an
advance in gross earnings, the total
earnings per mile in the three months
being $3,877, or SO9 per mile more
than in 1912, an increase of only 1.7
per cent. But the larger part of the
increase in net, earnings is found to be
due lo a reduction in operating ex
penses, these being for the three
months $2,3 89 per mile, or S9O per
mile less than in the corresponding
months of 1912.
"The reasons for the large increases
in gross earnings are tolerably plain.
The sudden development of the large
war munitions manufacturing indus
try, especially in eastern territory,
started the movement of an immense
traffic, consisting of fuel and raw ma
terials going to the mills and of fin
ished products leaving them for ex
port. The development of these manu
factures has given employment to
many thousands of people, who thereby
have been enabled to buy and consume
more goods of all kinds, which, in
turn, has caused an increase in indus
trial activity in other lines."
Peach Crop Profitable
to Baltimore and Ohio
Transporting the peach crop of
Maryland and West Virginia produced
$139,371.25 for the Baltimore anil Ohio
Railroad last year, according to re
ports made by the traffic department.
A new record of 1,590 Harioads of
peaches handled last year was made,
as against 1,1(58 from the same terri
tory the previous year, which indicates
the development of fruit growing in
the eastern sections near many of the
country's larger markets.
New York city took 402 carloads of
these peaches, while 159 carloads went
to Pittsburgh and 48 carloads to Phila
delphia.

An Ideal Remedy
for Nursing Mothers
Compound of Simple Laxative
Herbs Safe For Baby
and Mother.
Constipation is a condition that af
fects the old, young and middle-aged,
and most people at one time or an
other need help in regulating the action
of the bowels. Harsh cathartics and
purgatives should not be employed to
relieve constipation, as their effect is
only temporary while they shock the
system unnecessarily.
A remedy that can be used with per
fect safety for the tiniest babe and
that is equally effective for the strong
est constitution is found in the com
bination of simple laxative herbs
known as Or. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin
and sold In drug stores everywhere
for fifty cents a bottle. This is an
ideal household remedy and should be
in every family medicine chest.
Mrs. F. 1. Barsolow, IS Leslie St.,
Holyoke, Mass., wrote to Dr. Caldwell,
"Syrup Pepsin certainly is line.
T gave it to my baby, Evelyn, and
also took it myself. It is the only
medicine T have been able to take
without affecting Baby in the nursing.
I have used it for all four children and

Susquehanna Realty
Values Boosted 'Way
Above 1915 Figures
Susquehanna township real estate
values- —including many of the prop
erties in Riverside —were boosted froin
| 33 1-3 to nearly 400 per cent, by the
! 1916 triennial assessment.
The fact was developed to-day when
a number of Susquehanna township
I property owners appealed to the
; County Commissioners for a revision
1 downward of the schedule. These ap
peals were heard along with those of
, the Sixlh and Seventh ward land
i owners.
Lewis M. Neiffer was one of the ap
pellants front Riverside who said his
i valuation bad been raised at least
33 1-3 per cent." On other properties
CLOGGED KIDNEYS CAUSE
MANY PAINFUL ILLS
New Discovery Dissolves Impurities That Stop Up Body Drains
Backaches, Headaches, Lumbago and Rheumatic Pains
Then Quickly Disappear.
It is the work of the kidneys to filter
the impurities and waste matter from
the blood. If they start to clog up
with uric acid crystals and poisonous
sediment your are on the borderland
of serious disease.
You can't strain water through a
clogged-up sieve, neither can the kid
neys strain the poisons out of the
blood if the filtering membranes are
clogged with these uric acid crystals.
What is the result'/ The waste matter
is forced back into the system and is
carried by the blood to all parts of
the body. Tiny acid crystals are de
posited in the joints and muscles
where they don't belong and soon the
trouble starts. Uncomfortable aches
and pains begin to make themselves
felt in the back and joints and every
fiber will soon be crying out that there
is somthing wrong with the plumbing.
Unless these signals are heeded at
once you are running the risk of ser
ious complications.
The only way on earth to perma
nently and positively relieve such con
ditions is to remove the cause. For

Syrup Pepsin can be obtained, free of
charge, by writing to Dr. W. B. Cald
well, 454 Washington St., Monticello,
I there were increases of nearly a hun
| died per cent. The greatest boost,
i however, was charged against the
I ninety-odd acres just bordering the
city on the north, which are owned by
j the Nettie McKee Graham estate. This
I property Includes Hoffman's woods, the
j tract which ex-Mayor John K. Royal
u year ago told the City Commlssion
j ers could be easily purchased at a
; comparatively small figure. The as
sessment last year was $49,000. As
sessor Isaac Steese, however, placed a
value of $210,000 on the propertv for
1916. Susquehanna township, by the
way, is the most valuable district in
j the county, according lo the assess -
: ments. The increase will amount to
between $350,000 and $375,000. The
increased valuation of the river front
age of Riverside was figured somewhat
in the compilation of the figures. The
whole township valuation last year was
$2,709,74.1, but the additional increase
of from $350,000 to $375,000 will run
| the assessment to considerably more
than three million.

this there is nothing better than the
recommendations made for Solvax, the
new, inexpensive, and quick acting
kidney treatment. It goes straight, to
the seat of the trouble and is design
ed to dissolve the uric acid sedirttent
that, is holding the kidneys from doing
their work properly. When Solvax
starts cleaning out the kidneys a com
plete change is felt immediately. The
blood reaching the kidneys loaded
with waste is now strained and filtered
and goes pumping back through tli*
arteries clean and pure, washing all
impurities before it. When the pois
onous acid is washed out of the joints
and muscles, the pains and aches dis
appear and the whole being brightens
up as if by magic.
Try Solvax to-day. You are cheat
ing yourself out of your full enjoy
ment of life if you don't help yout
kidneys to do their work properly. M,
C. Kennedy and other reliable drug
gists have Solvax. It is inexpensive,
harmless and very easy to take. Al
