An Offer By
Local Druggists
Now Have Now "External" Treat
ment That They Are Sell
ing on 30 Days' Trial.
Money Refunded If It Does Not
Believe Cold Troubles Quicker
Than Internal Medicines.
The leading druggists, whose
names are given below, have re
cently imported from the South the
new external treatment, known as
Vick's "Vap-O-Rub" Salve. No
one knows better than the trained
chemist the injurious effect of "in
ternal" medicines, especially on
children. In order to demonstrate
to their customers the advantages
of this external treatment, these
druggists have arranged to sell
Vick's in either 25c, 50c, or SI.OO
sizes on 30 days' trial, giving with
each sale a refund blank, good for
your money back if you are not
delighted.
For croup and cold troubles
Vick's "Yap-O-Rub" is applied
over the throat and chest, covering
with a warm flannel cloth. The
vapors released by the bodv heat
quickly loosen the choking phlegm,
and clear the air passages. In se
vere cases, first apply hot wet tow
els to open the pores. Vick's is
then absorbed through the skin,
taking out the tightness and sore
ness. Croup is usually relieved in
fifteen minutes, and the worst
colds commonly over night.
This double treatment —absorp-
tion through the skin and inhala
tion as a vapor, makes Vick's use
ful for a wide range of troubles,
from head colds, asthma and ca
tarrh, down to sore throat, bron
chitis, hacking coughs and deep
chest colds.

TURN HAIR DARK
W.TH SAGE TEH
If Mixed With Sulphur It
Darkens So Naturally
Nobody Can Tell
The oliMime mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur for darkening: gray,
streaked and faded hair is grandmoth
er's recipe end folks are again using
it to keep their hair a good, even
color, which is quite sensible, as we
are living iu an age when a youthful
appearance is of the greatest advan
tage.
Nowadays, though, we don't have
the troublesome task of gathering the
>:ise and the mussy mixing at home.
All drug stores sell the ready-to-usc
product, improved by the addition of
other ingredients, called "Wyeth's
.Sage and Sulphur Compound" for
about 50 cents a bottle. It is very
popular because nobody can discover
it has been applied. Simply moisten
your comb or a soft brush with it
and draw this through your hair, tak
ing one small strand at a time; by
morning the gray hair disappears, but
what delights the ladies with Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound, is that,
besides beautifully darkening the hair
after a few applications, it also pro
duces that soft luster and appearance
of abundance which is so attractive.
This read.v-to-use preparation is a de
lightful toilet requisite for those who
desire a more youthful appearance.
It is not intended for the cure, miti
gation or prevention of disease.—Ad
vertisement.

FRIDAY EVENING, HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH MARCH 17, 1916.
OLD CONTRACT
NOT A BARRIER
Public Service Commission
Will (io Into Details of An
Important Case
I The New Jersey Zinc Company of |
Pennsylvania, which complained to ;
the Public Service Commission against
; the proposed increase of the charges !
l'or the transportation of coal from j
; the t/ohish and Wyoming regions to I
I Hazard and Palmerton by the Central J
Railroad Company of New Jersey,
alleging that the new rates were un
-1 reasonable and excessive, will get a
hearing on the case very soon.
From the facts presented to the,'
, commission it appeared that in 1898 j
a contract was entered into between I
jthe zinc company and the railroad I
company by which the railroad com
' pany agreed to transport culm, rice [
and buckwheat coal to the plants of
ihe zinc company about to be erected
at Hazard and Palmerton at rates not
io exceed 3i> and al cents per gross
ton. respectively, for a period of
i twenty years, and as long as the com- '
pany continued to operate its plants at
the two points named. On October 1. I
1913, the railroad company published j
a new tariff, increasing* the rates l'or
this transportation from 36 cents to
t»0 cents and from 51 cents to 75 cents,
and the enforcement of the new rates
was later restrained by the common
pleas court of the county of Philadel
phia. the court suggesting in its order
that the matter should be raised be-j
tore the Public Service Commission
i after January 1. 1914, when the pub
lic service company law went into ef
fect. This complaint was accordingly!
tiled and the matter presented to the j
commission.
The zinc company contended before :
the commission that the commission;
should pass upon the validity of the
: contract above mentioned before con
sidering the question of the reason- I
ableness and legality of the proposed
increased rates, alleging that the con
tract was binding and precluded the
railroad company from increasing the 1
rates during the time mentioned. The
only matters presented to the commis
sion were the questions of the right of
the parties to make this contract and
its effect in view of the passage of the j
public service company law.
The commission in its report dis
! cusses the effect which the public,
scrvi, o company law may have upon
the right to make such a contract and
the questions which are raised before
the commission by an allegation that a
I lawfully published rate is unreason- j
I able, unjust and discriminatory. It
i decides that the public service com- |
pany law gives the commission such
administrative discretion over the sub- I
iect of discrimination in rates that it i
is required to proceed to a hearing and I
I investigation of all matters pertinent
to such subject, in spite of the exist
ence of a contract which the courts
might have declared nondiscrimi- 1
natory. The commission also held |
; that, even if it were to be decided that
the rates fixed in the contract could
not be deemed to be unjustly discrimi
natory. nevertheless the obligation of
the contract does not extend to pre
vent the railroad company from charg
ing such rates as are just and reason
able.
Based upon those two conclusions,
the commission directed tHe parties to '
present such facts as they desired upon ;
the question of the reasonableness of J
the increased rates complained of.

I
\chieved Notoriety in Famous
Feud With McCuskers
in Maryland
Special to the Telegraph
Magerstown, Md., March 17.—Rich
xrd Uoman, aged 75, head of the cele
brated Roman family living in the
mountains above Hancock along the
Fulton county line, who achieved
notority because of a family feud
between the Roman and McCusker
families, was found dead in bed at
lis home in Long Hollow yesterday
from heart trouble. Roman had been j
n Hancock and returned home ap
parently In good health. He was the
father of Jeff Roman, who wan shot,
iml killed by Claude McCusUer, who
s now serving 18 years in the penl- 1
tertiary for liis crime. For weeks
I after the tragedy the elder Roman
, searched the mountains for McCus
ker and finally shot and wounded
; him. McCusker fled into Pennsylvania
