An Easy Way to
Increase Weight
Good Advice For Thin Folks
The trouble with most thin folks who
wish to gain weight is that tliey insist
on drugging their stomach or stuffing
it with greasy foods: rubbing on use
less "flesh creams" or following some
foolish physical culture stunt while the
real cause of thinness goes untouched.
You cannot get fat until your digestive
tract assimilates the food you cat.
There is a preparation known tt> re
liable druggists almost everywhere
which seemingly embodies the missing
elements needed by the digestive or
gans to help them convert food into
rich, fat-laden blood. This modern
treatment is called Sargol and ins been
termed the greatest of flesh-builders.
Sargol aims through regeneration, re
construction powers to coax the stom
ach and intestines to literally snak up
the fattening elements of your food and
pass them into the blood, where they
are carried to the starved, broken-down
cells and tissues of your body. You can
readily picture what result this amus
ing transformation should produce as
with increased weight the cheek* fill
out, hollows about neck shoulders and
bust disappear and from 10 to JO pounds
of solid, healthy flesh is added to the
body. Sargol is absolutely harmless, In
expensive, efficient. G. A. Gorgas and
other leading druggists of this vicinity
have it and will refund your money
if* you .ire not satisfied, as per the
guarantee found In every package.
NOTE: —rfargol is recommended only
as a fleah builder and while excellent
results In ca tes of nervous indigestion,
etc., have been reported care should be
taken about using it unless a gain of
weight Is desired.

TUESDAY EVENING, '
FIRE COMPANY OF
WORMLEYSBURG
TO USE HALL FREE
Difference of Opinion Among
Firemen and Members of
Council Is Adjusted
Wormleysburg, Pa., April 4. —Mem- I
bers of the Wormleysburg Fire Com
pany last evening won their fight with
the borough council of the town and
as the result, will be permitted to use
the auditorium in the new town hall
free, in addition to having a place in
which to house the company's ap
paratus and meetingroom. Council
will have a room in the building in I
which to meet.
The controversy started soon after
the work on the new building was
started. Some of the councilmen were
of the opinion that the hall, which
takes lip the entire second floor,
should be rented to persons desiring
to hold entertainments, festivals or
suppers for the benefit of churches or
other organizations and the other
councilmen thought this would be the
proper thing to do. Hut then some
person brought up the question of
charging the fire company and the
trouble started. Several councilmen
and other borough officials believed
the company should pay a rental as
well as any other organization. Others
objected to this. There was a split
and many hard words were passed
during the past few weeks and at last
evening's session, when the matter
was threshed out, Burgess J. Fred
Humniel had a tilt with one of the
member sof council.
Peace, however, was Anally declared
and council agreed to permit the fire
men to use the hall, basement, ap
paratusroom and meetingroom free, i
The Idea of erecting a new town
hall really originated within the ranks
of the lire company and when the
question of money was brought up in
council, the firemen turned all of the
money in their treasury over to the
borough fathers. This, it is said,
amounted to SSOO and then the Ladies'
Auxiliary of the company also con
tributed the money they had in their
treasury. Because of this action, the
tiremen believed they should have the
use of the building free. Churches
and other organizations, however, will
have to pay for the use of the hall.
At the present time, rehearsals for
the annual performance of the Worra
leysburg Fire Company minstrels are
being held and the fact that it was!
thought the company would have to
pay for the use of the hall caused
several members of the circle to de
clare their intentions of quitting. With
peace declared, however, the show 1
will be given April 27 and 28.

Objected to Sectarian Talk
. The cause of the riot was the ob

The crowds then began throwing
stones at windows in the City Hall
while portions of the mob went to
other parts of the city and attacked
the residences of persons who had as
sisted in arranging for I-eyden's ad

The local militia company, sum

I according to the mayor's first quar

Quarterly reports, as Mayor Meals
announced sometime ago. will be
I made regularly and the city commis
sioners to-day highly commended the
statement which gave them for the
; first time a complete official account
ing of the police department's work.
"The creation of a bureau of de
tectives," says Chief of Police Zeil,
"with a superintendent as the head
of this department has been a for
ward movement in the interest of effi
ciency. The placing of this bureau
under separate direction not only has
increased the efficiency of this branch
of the service but has left the chief
of police free to devote his entire time
to genera! police work, which is in
creasing rapidly." Chief Zeil refers to
the excellent results that have been
obtained by the establishment of the
traffic squad under Captain Joseph P.
Thompson.
The tabulation of arrests, etc.,
shows that 90 were made in January,
133 in February and 138 in March;
300 wagon and 437 ambulance calls
were made. For the quarter the police
court fines. costs and forfeitures
totaled $301.15 and from the alder
men $100.55. January court cases
and discharges netted $316.79 all of
which was turned into the city treas
ury. Superintendent Windsor's re
port goes into detail as to the disposi
tion of the cases handled by the de-
I tective bureau.

meeting the situation are being worked
out.
Representative Copley, of Illinois,
has introduced a resolution to ascer
tain the desirability of placing an em
bargo on materials required in the
manufacture of paper.
Paper manufacturers who are gov
ernment contractors have asked the
joint committee on printing to abro
gate or modify their contracts for the
supply of paper to the Government
Printing Office, asserting that, con
ditions have so changed since the con
tracts were entered into that they will
i sustain large losses if they are re-
I quired to furnish paper under them.
The Copley resolution may be ex
tended to cover print paper, since in
formation has reached Washington
that there are thousands of tons piled
at tidewater awaiting shipment abroad,
some of it consigned to countries
which have embargoes against ma
terial used In the manufacture of paper
and paper Itself.
Secretary Redfield has directed that
n copy of the circular prepared by the
' department in connection with the
scarcity of paper stock and a poster
! on the same subject be sent to 27,000
school superintendents, with the object
of having tli»m co-operate in the cam

PAVE THE STREET

Penbrook Council.
quired and to comply with oilier for
malities necessary to have the State
and trolley company approve. The
citizens' committee selected last Fall to
represent the property owners front
ing in the street met with council
and individually expressed their senti
ments in favor of having the work
proceed at once with the aid of the
State. W. H. Wolf, chairman of the
committee, said he did not wish to be
understood as against theimprovement,
although he had favored other meth
ods than those advocated by the State
enginers, and assured the council he
would heartily co-operate to have the
work done as the majority preferred,
providing reasonable assurance was
secured from the State that the present
grade would not be materially changed.
B. F. Ober, chairman of the high
ways committee, said the profile in
charge of the borough's civil engineer
did not show any material changes,
but the matter would be thoroughly
gone over before finally approved. Mr.
Ober said petitions and pledges from
property owners assured over four
fifths in favor of the plan proposed
by ♦ lio council and that many of the
others would approve as soon as the
council and property owners' commit
tee agreed that the State aid was the
most practical solution of the problem.
This co-operation by the State is au
thorized under a law enacted May 31,
1911. by which boroughs of the State
receive assistance in order to encour
age improvement of roads throughout
the State, and especially main high
ways that are used as much by others
as they are by the residents of the
boroughs.
The agitation for paving In Pen- j
brook first began two years ago when
the property owners on the west end j
of Main street petitioned the council j
to pave and expressed a willingness ;
to pay all the cost. Action was de- j
ferred in hopes of getting the entire I
street improved, but a large portion of
the road on Ihe east had been im
proved seventeen years ago with a Tel- I
ford foundation at the expense of the !
borough. Therefore a number of the
property owners believed that this 1
foundation could remain and be re
surfaced at less cost than entire new
work. Rut others maintained that the
Telford foundation had been laid be
fore the days of gas and water mains,
and considering how It had been torn
up to lay pipes for gas. water and the
street railway tracks, they favored a
thoroughly new job while there was
an opportunity to secure the State's j
c.o-operation. The approximate cost
given by Mr. Ober is $26,861 for pav- !
Ine a length of 3,248 feet by 28 feet i
wide. This, however, includes cul- j
verts, piping and curbing. The State
will pave eight feet and the traction
company seven, leaving thirteen feet
I for property owners and borough. The
| i os» to the traction company will be
[ about $9,394.90; the State's share,
5.">,308.62. and the balance. $12,157.47,
is the estimate of what nropertv own
-1 ers and the borough will pay, includ
; ing the curbing.
Mr. Ober deserves great credit for
j his patient and untiring work, es-
I peclallv within the last two weeks,
j after the State notified the borough
i that the appropriated fund would be
tfiven to other sections of the county
unless Penbrook decided at once to go
ahead with the work. Mr. Ober got in
Immediate touch with all parties con
cerned and consulted with the officers
of the Motor <"lub, with the result that
the board of governors last evening
agreed to donate a sum of S3OO and
raised a suhscrintlon list of S4OO, mak
: ing a total of S7OO. which mav be used
if necessary should any of those who

ROOSEVELT AND
HUGHES LOOM UP
[Continued From First Patio.]
are taking precautions against a
stampede.
So that there may be no snap judg
ment in the convention, no sudden
stampede as R result of the shouting
and flag-waving of professional cheer
ing squads, the Republican leaders in
the \arlous Slates are taking pains to
have elected as delegates only men of
the highest type, men who will realize
their responsibility to the Nation and
refuse to be swept off their feet in
the excitement of a moment.
Delegates High Class Men
The prediction was made by mem
bers of the Senate who have taken
part in recent conferences of the sup
porters of various candidates that the
Republican National Convention to be
held in Chicago early in June would
be made tip of men who would weigh
the qualifications of the candidates
and refuse to be stampeded.
Tt is admitted that no precaution
can be taken against a deadlock. It
Is conceded further by the supporters
of the various candidates that none
of those in the Held will have sufficient
delegates to insure nomination on the
first ballot. According to one of the
members of the Senate the following
program is being followed by Colonel
Roosevelt:
"Efforts to elect delegates pledged
to Colonel Roosevelt are being dis
couraged. Tie would prefer not to
have any fieht made in his behalf at
the present time."
i Justice Hughes, it was stated upon
his authority, will make the race for
I the Presidency if the Republican con
vention should issue a unanimous call
for his services. He is understood to
take the position that he has done his
full duty In refusing to permit the use
of his name as a candidate; in re
fusing to raise a finger to aid those
who are working for his nomination;
in making it plain that he is not am
bitious for the nomination, and would
prefer to stay on the Supreme Court
bench. But if the convention should
j nominate him, the nomination coming
| to him without the slightest effort on
; his part, but in the nature of a call
from the public, his friends now be
lieve it to be absolutely certain that
j he will run.
| The knowledge that Justice Hughes
; would not refuse a unanimous call has
reached Colonel Roosevelt, and the
j latter Is now quietly working to dis-
I courage the further use of Hughes as
| stalking horse for the Roosevelt
movement. Previously some of the
| Roosevelt men were agitating the
[ Hughes movement in the belief that
i Hughes delegates would turn to Roose
i velt when they became convinced that
| the Supreme Court justice could not
be drafted.
Many of the other candidates be
lieve that In rase there is a deadlock
in the convention it will be a choice
between Roosevelt and Hughes. They
are now dividing territory with a view
to controlling the convention against
both Hushes and Roosevelt and
swinging it to one of their own num
ber after the first few ballots. There
is renewed talk of "dark horses," but
among themselves the members of
the Senate who are themselves candi
dates for the Presidency admit that
unless they can bring about the nomi
nation of one of their own number,
either Roosevelt or Hughes will carry
off the prize.
