During the time of the strike in some sections of the country it was impossible to get coal at any price. Here in Harrisburg consumers were lucky to get their supplies in 500-lb. lots and then it was not always • possible to send the kind desired. , Every indication points to a more serious coal strike this year than in 1902. Many foreigners have gone home to fight and many more have been drawn to the steel mills by the lure of high wages. We are seriously advising our customers to lay in an ample supply of coal this month while good qual ity coal can be secured.. No one can tell what prices will be after April 1, 1916.

Indeed, for quite two centuries the world believed that the Dodo had never really existed, that he was a myth, pure and simple, and It required the most active efforts of scientific men to restore the belief that the Dodo ever was. In the United States there is one skeleton of a Dodo, one of the three or four in all the world. This may be seen lar any visitor to the National Museum in Washington. The accom panying illustration shows the Dodo skeleton on the work bench of Jo seph Scollick, who for thirty years has been working with the skeletons of birds In the Smithsonian Institu tion. The Dodo was discovered by the Portuguese when they first visited the Island of Mauritius above 1507, They found the island to be thickly popu lated by huge pigeons as big as swans, but seemingly without intelli gence. They named them "Doudo," which is a Portuguese word meaning "simpleton." The most that Is now known of the external appearance of the Dodo is WEST SHORE NEWS Social and Personal News o{ Towns Along West Shore Harry Robinson, of Denver, Col., was the guest of Mrs. Byers and Mrs. Pearl Hoover at New Cumberland.

THE DODO derived from the paintings made by j Roland Savery, who about 1626 patnt. j ed several pictures from a living cap tive Dodo. The lasv living Dodo was exhibited in London in 1638, and the last evidence of their existence on the island of Mauritius was recorded in the Journal of Benjamin Harry in , 1681. Hogs had been introduced by the Dutch settlers into the island, and 1 they soon made short work of the I big, clumsy birds and their eggs. The j race died out. In 1865 some British scientists made an expedition to the island of Mauri ! tius which resulted in the discovery i of a great many Dodo bones. These ; were distributed among the various scientific societies of the world, and one of the skeletons made up from these remains is shown in the accom panying picture.

HOW 1 DARKENED MY GRAY HAIR Lady Gives Simple Home Recipe That She Used to Darken Her Gray Hair For years I tried to restore my gray hair to Its natural color with the pre pared dyes and stains, but none of them gave satisfaction and they were all expensive. I finally ran onto a simple recipe which I mixed at home that gives wonderful results. I gave the recipe, which as follows, to a number of my friends, and they are all delighted with it. To 7 ozs. of water add a small box of Barbo Com pound, I oz. of bay rum and »i oz. of glycerine. These ingredients can be bought at any drug store at very little cost. Use every other day un til the iiair becomes the required shade, then every two weeks. It will not only darken the gray hair, but removes dandruff and scalp humors, and acts as a tonic to the hair. It is not sticky or greasy, does not rub off and does not color the scalp.—Adver tisement.
