"If I Were

a lady said the other
day, "I would let my
wife buy the coal, for
she certainly ought to
know the kind that is
best and cheapest for
the home."
Let's think that over,
men. Maybe there is
some truth in the state
ment.
The fact that a woman
is overly particular about

evidence by the thousands

"All Bosh-
Coffee Doesn't Hurt Me"
says the cynic—but, we live and learn and at some
time of life many coffee drinkers wake up to the fact
that the drug, "caffeine," in coffee is "getting them."
Headache, nervousness, biliousness, heart flut
ter, insomnia, etc., are often signs that coffee is get
ting in its work; and the growing knowledge of its
true nature has led thousands of former coffee drink
ers to turn to
INSTANT POSTUM
This famous food-drink tastes much like mild
Java coffee, but is entirely free from caffeine and
other harmful elements ever present in coffee. It is
made of whole wheat and a small portion of whole
some molasses, and permits Nature, unhampered, to
carry on her work of daily re-building brain, nerves
and muscle.
Postum comes in two forms: The original Pos
tum Cereal must be boiled: Instant Postum requires
no boiling—a level teaspoonful in a cup of hot water
makes a delicious drink —instantly. Both forms are
equally delicious and the cost per cup is about the
same.
"There's a Reason" for POSTUM
Sold by Grocers everywhere.

LAWYERS SHOW
ANCIENT MAPS
Counsel for some of the "Hardscrab
ble" property owners to-day stirred up
the dust of yesteryear when they pre
sented some yellowed city maps, ordi
nances and records of long ago realty
transfers in taking testimony of wit
nesses before Commissioner Scott S.
I<eiby in preparation for the argument
on the "Hardscrabble" condemnation
proceedings.
City Clerk Charles A. Miller, City
Engineer M. B. Cowden and Deputy
Prothonotary E. E. Hummel were
among the officials examined. Some
of the maps shown were made as far
back as 1869. Frequently City So
licitor D. S. Seitz inquired as to the
purpose of the taking of the depo
sitions.
Some curious facts as to the own
ership of land and properties in that
section 'way. way back in years gone
by were developed by Attorneys B. F.
N'ead. George R. Barnett and J. C.
Xissley, counsel for the property own
ers, in their effort to support their
contention that the highway in ques
tion had long been laid out as a
county road and later accepted as a
city highway. Their position is that
the city need not and can not formally
open Front street, as it has already
been opened and paved by the city.
INCREASE DIRECTORATE
At a meeting of the stockholders of
the Moorhead Knitting Company yes
terday afternoon it was voted to in
crease the number of directors from

Harrisburg will be held at 7.30 o'clock
this evening in the first floor offices of

ing's meeting.
HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
BUSINESSMEN ARE ;
TOLD OF CHARITY
The Chamber of Commerce at its !
noonday luncheon at the Harrisburg!
club to-day heard two talks on the
subject of organized charity. John
Yates, secretary of the Associated Aid
Societies ot' Harrisburg and Riley M.
kittle, of Philadelphia, executive sec-j
retary of the Society for Organizing
Charity, talked In a way to open the \
eyes of the many whose idea of charity :
has In general been along lines of j
sentiment and entirely separate from j
business principles and economic wel
fare.
President J. William Bowman in-1
troduced Mr. Yates, who in a short ■
speech dwelt, in a general way upon |
the work of the local charities and i
their aim. He said that while the so- |
cial and moral value of charity work
plays a prominent, part in Its activities |
yet it is fundamentally a business:
proposition and community spirit in
spires its work Just as strongly as it
inspires the work of civic improve
ment. It is a work of conserving the
human waste of the city by converting
the unproductive into productive In
dividuals, he said.
Constructive Charity
"Constructive Charity" was the I
| theme which Mr. L.ittle discussed in a I
j masterly way. Dividing the forces of
la city into the two classes of assets]
and liabilities, he proceeded to show |
how the work of the charities at
tempts to increase the former and;
decrease the latter. Primary in the!
causes of poverty, he said, are bad
stock and heredity, lack of educational
training, irregular employment and
strongly formed habits of life. These |
' are the reasons why charity organiza- i
, Hons exist. The speaker said private i
' groups are doing what the govern- j
ments should do; our penal code is a !
failure, and is one of the most poten
tial forces for the accumulation of
municipal liabilities that we have; the 1
i poor laws arc bad, and have merely j
increased the Jobs to be done by other!
people.
To Publish "Primer" of City
I The next meeting of the governing I
board of the Chamber of Commerce !
will carefully consider the proposition!
of preparing an account of Harris- !
b'irg's civic development, the com
mercial and industrial advantages I
and development of the city to be pub- I
ilshed for the information of citizens!
generally and for submission to the j
school authorities as a "Harrisburg
Primer."
By having an authoritative hand- j
book on Harrisburg put in the hands'
of the pupils of the school system j
and carefully studied by them, officers!
of the Chamber feel that the new gen
eration of Harrisburgers will be un
usually equipped as citizens.
To Publish Albert Speech
The Chamber ts planning to pub
lish the address delivered by Allen D.
Albert, the noted civic worker at the
Technical High School on the evening j
of March 22, in pamphlet form for
the use of its members and other in- j
terested citizens of Harrisburg.
So far as is known the action of
the Chamber of Commerce is entirely:
original, none of the many different
cities he has visited all over the coun- j
try having had the foresight to
capitalize in this fashion the valuable
suggestions made by Mr. Albert when
he visits a city.
