DANGEROUS VARICOSE
VEINS CAN BE REDUCED
If you or any relative or friend is
worried because of varicose veins, or
bunches, the best advice that anyone
In this world can give is to get a pre
scription that many physicians are now
prescribing.
Ask your druggist for an original
two-ounce bottle of Emerald Oil (full
strength) and apply night and morn
ing to the swollen, enlarged veins.
Boon you will notice that they are
growing smaller and the treatment
•hould be continued until the veins are
of normal size. So penetrating and
powerful is Emerald Oil that It dis
solves goiter and wens and causes them
to disappear. It can always be secured

University Club of Harrisburg
Receives Inpetus at Election
of Officers by Board
The meeting of the Board of Direc- j

burg held last evening In the Tele-!
graph building resulted in the elec- i
tion of the following officers, who will
serve for the first year of the newly
organized club: President, Arthur E. j
Brown, headmaster of the Harrisburg !
Academy; vice-president. Henderson
Gilbert; secretary, Mark T. Milnor;
treasurer. Edward J. Stackpole, Jr.
Organization plans were thoroughly ;
discussed and a draft of the proposed
by-laws carefully gone over prepara- |
tory to ratification at the next regular :
meeting of the club members. The
officers were authorized to obtain a
charter of incorporation and President j
Brown appointed his committees on I
membership and site, with inslruc-1
tions to get busy at once in order that ;
the club may be comfortably housed 1
without undue loss of time. Mark T.
Milnor was appointed chairman of the j
membership committee, and all who
desire membership in the club are in-1
vited to get in touch with Mr. Milnor. I
Henderson Gilbert heads the commit-!
Ice charged with obtaining suitable i
quarters for the housing of the club,
which it is proposed will be located in
the heart of the city at a place con- !
venient for all. It is as yet undecided I
a3 to whether the club will take over
an entire house or merely rent a few
rooms temporarily.
Slight Damage Along
River Front by Water
Investigation to-day of the entire
river front by park officials revealed
comparatively little damage to the em
bankments by the high water of the
Susquehanna of the last week or so.
Below and above "Hardscrabble"
some earth had been scooped out and
a certain amount of the "till" dumped
last year has been washed away. The
park authorities are taking earth "fill"
from wherever it can be got in small
quantities and cheaply to patch up the
trouble. The wtaers have receded to
below the granolithic walk and within
a day or two the pavement will be
cleared by the winds of the accumu- i
lations of dust and sand. It is doubt- ■
fui if the park department will go to
the expense of washing the walk.
Within a few weeks new planting will
be started.
Presbytery to Take Up
Olivet Church Status
The regular quarterly sessions of the
Carlisle Presbytery will be held next
Tuesday and Wednesday in the Pine

tor of Westminster Presbyterian
Church, presiding. He will also lead
the devotional exercises and preach on
Tuesday afternoon when the sessions
open. On Wednesday the sessions will
be devoted to business and it is un
derstood that further action may be
taken on the status of the Olivet Pres
byterian Church, Derry and Kittatinny
streets. Since the resignation of the
Rev. William O. Yates, as pastor of
the church, the Rev. William B.
Cooke has been appointed minister in
charge, but no one has been appointed
permanently for the charge.

In Defense of the Baker
\n Address Made by Mr. Parnell, of the Spiers-Parnell
Baking Co., Winnipeg, Manitoba, Before
the Local Rotarv Club
0 J
In complying with the request of
your committee to address you on that
ail-important food product—bread, I
do so with much pleasure, if for no
other reason than the fact that as be
tween the producer of bread and the
general public there lies a gulf of mis
understanding;, which, so far, seems
impossible to bridge or clear up in a
satisfactory manner.
1 think this has been largely brought
about by the fact that up to about
twenty years ago the bread business
was conducted in a very small way and
by, in a great many cases, just as
small men; in underground shops, or
if above ground in most insanitary
places by employes who mostly lived
with their employers, practically
working night and day for a bare ex
istence. and who hardly ever saw their
homes and families more than once a
week.
The tendency of all this was to
lower the standard of manhood and
moral tone of all concerned to such
an extent that the unscrupulous em
ployer could and, no doubt did do
and allow acts to be done which were
not in the public interest. The pub
lic having had this drilled into them
by the press (and may I say rightly
so) we who are in the business to
day have found It'very hard to edu
cate the public to the fact that a dif
ferent condition of things does now
exist, and that we who are in the
business to-day should not be con
nected with the days and conditions
of the past.
In addition to this there has been
at no time in the history of our coun
try a more deep-seated agitation or
keener demand for sanitary conditions
in the manufacture and delivery of
food products than at the present. All
thinking people, and especially those
in authority, having to do with the
health of the community, believe that
many of the diseases prevailing to
day are either directly traceable to
the insanitary conditions under which
food products are sometimes manu
factured, cared for or delivered, or if
not directly the cause, do in a great
many cases help aggravate certain
diseases and make them more dan
gerous than they would be if proper
conditions always prevailed.
We naturally, then, ask ourselves
what has been done to remedy the
conditions surrounding so important
an article of food as bread —used in
every household and on the table at
least three times a day!
The old, insanitary bakeshops have
to £ large extent been demolished,
and in their place have come the
new modern bread factory. These fac
tories, with their spacious rooms, ven
tilated in the most scientific manner,
i with floors and walls a marvel of
\ cleanliness —the mixing machines,
i which thoroughly incorporate all the
ingredients so that the very best pos-
I sible results are obtained; the auto
matic weighing machines, which have.
Iwith ordinary case, settled the vexed
question of lightweight loaves being
palmed off on an unsuspecting pub
lie; the traveling proofers and mould
ing machines, which to a large extent
do away with the necessity of the loaf
being touched by hand; the modern
bakeoven, whose smoke and dirt, as
in the old oven, does not come in con
tact with the loaf in any way what
ever; with its dining rooms, shower
baths, and toilets for the health and
comfort of its employes, seems to com
plete an equipment that measures up
to the standard set by our heatlh au
thorities to such an extent that they
are unable to suggest any improve
ment.
The bread manufacturer of to-day
gives careful attention to the sec
tion of all ingredients which go to
make a loaf of bread. They are ex
amined as to their purity; the flour is
thoroughly cleansed of all foreign
matter by being passed through fine
sieves before using, and if the baker
has any doubts as to the contents
and purity of any ingredients he has
only to send it to one of the agricul
tural colleges, when for a small sum
he can have it analyzed and a report
submitted which is independent and
final.
The employe is given every en
couragement, with discipline and sys
tem everywhere prevailing. His hours
are fixed—being 54 per week; the
wages paid being nearly double what
they were a few years ago, and every
care is taken to have none but healthy
men in the factory.
Wherever practical the loaf is
wrapped—machines for this purpose
having been introduced at considerable
cost; waxed paper being very largely
used for this purpose; but I desire
to say here, in answer to some criti
cism asking why we do not wrap all
bread, that the reason it is not done is
that it Is not a practical proposi
tion.
In the delivery department the same
care is exercised in the selection of
salesmen. Rules and regulations are
laid down for their guidance. In
spectors are appoinied to a certain
number of routes, with a superinten
dent over the whole department. The
salesmen are not allowed to have any
thing to do with the horses or stable;
the very best of wages are paid, and
yet this department gives us a great
deal of trouble, owing to the fact that
when a salesman leaves the yard he
becomes a law unto himself as to his
manner of handling the loaf and in
his general conduct, and if he does
not carry out our rules and regula
tions, he is the one the public see, and,
as a result, for this one man's act the
whole business is condemned, and, I
am sorry to say, he is in too many
cases shielded by the customer anil
general public, making it very hard
for the manufacturer to apply a rem
edy.
In view of all these changes and
improvements one naturally asks what
has been the result to the consuming
public. We might say, without fear
of contradiction, that among the many
benefits derived two stand out most
prominently: First—that whereas un
der the old conditions the loaf was of
a very indifferent and irregular qual
ity—this prevailing to such ail extent
that not more than twenty per cent,
of the total bread consumed was made
in bakeshops—that to-day bread made
in Canada is classed among the best
anywhere, and the percentage used
runs as high as ninety-five per cenl.
Second—that the price of the loaf
is as cheap to-day as under the old
method. In fact, when you consider
that since the war began flour has
gone up from fifty to seventy-live per
cent.; that all ingredients we now use,
such as sugar, fats, malt extracts, etc.,
have risen in price from thirty-three to
fifty per cent.: that horse feed of all
kinds has gone up in the same ratio;
that to-day seventy-five per cent, of
the total delivery is direct to the con
sumer, instead of, as it used to be,
to the storekeeper, thereby making
costs for the delivery alone fifty per
cent, greater tha.n under the old sys- |
double; that their hours have been re
doubt; that their hours have been re
duced nearly one-half, I make bold
to say that had it not been for the
fact that the business now has men
engaged in it with capital, large ideas
and foresight to buy at the right time,
that this good city of Winnipeg would
now be paying seven cents instead of
the usual five cents per loaf. /»
Let me close by thanking you for
your close attention and the hope thnt
a more considerable and systematic
public will In future accord to the
bread man of to-day the quota of
merit to which he is Jußtly entitled.

INTO GRAY HI
Darkens Beautifully and Re
stores Its Natural Color and
Lustre at Once
Common garden sage brewed Into a
heavy tea, with sulphur and alcohol
added, will turn gray, streaked and
faded hair beautifully dark and
luxuriant. Mixing the Sage Tea and
Sulphur recipe at home, though, is
troublesome. An easier way is to get
the ready-to-use preparation Im
proved by the addition of other in
gredients, costing about 50 cents a
large bottle, at drug stores, known as
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound," thus avoiding a lot of muss.
While gray, faded hair is not sinful,
we all desire to retain our youthful
appearance and attractiveness. By
darkening your hair with Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound, no one
can tell, because it does it so naturally,
so evenly. You just dampen a sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning all gray
hairs have disappeared. After an
other application or two your hair be
comes beautifully dark, glossy, soft
and luxuriant, and you appear years
younger. Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound Is a delightful toilet
requisite. It is not intended for the
cure, mitigation or prevention of dis
ease.
