4 You owe yourself This Rare Treat after the heavy meats and the canned vegetables of the Winter—with a jaded stom ach and rebellious liver— Shredded Wheat With Strawberries— a dish that is deliciously nourishing and satisfying a perfect meal for the Spring days, and so easily and quickly prepared, For breakfast, for luncheon, or any meal. Made at Falls, N. V. SAYS HOT WATER EACH OUr KEEPS THE DOCTOR AIM Drink glass of hot water before breakfast to wash out the poisons. Life is not merely to live, but to live well, eat well, digest well, work well, sleep well, look well. What a glorious condition to attain, and yet how very easy it is if one will only adopt the morning inside bath. Folks who are accustomed to feel dull and heavy when they arise, split ting headache, stuffy from a cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stomach, can, instead, feel as fresh as a daisy by opening the sluices of the system each morning and flushing out the whole of the internal poisonous, stagnant matter. Everyone, whether ailing, sick or well, should, each morning, before breakfast, drink a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it. to wash from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the previous day's indigestible waste, sour bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleans ing, sweetening and purifying the en tire alimentary canal before putting more food Into the stomach. The action of hot water and limestone phosphate on an empty stomach is wonderfully invigorating. It cleans out all the sour fermentations, gases, waste and acidity and gives one a tplendHl appetite for breakfast. While you are enjoying your breakfast the water and phosphate is quietly ex tracting a large volume of water from the blood and getting ready for a thorough flushing of all the Inside organs. The millions of people who are both ered with constipation, bilious spells, stomach trouble, rheumatism: others who have sallow skins, blood disor ders and sickly complexions, are urged to get a quarter pound of limestone phosphate, from the drug store, which will cost very little, but is sufficient to makf anyone a pronounced crank on the subject of internal sanitation.— 1 OLD RECIPE 13 DARKEN HAIR Sage Tea and Sulphur Turns Gray, Faded Hair Dark and Glossy.

Hell Phone. Auto Sfrvtpp, B WEDNESDAY EVENING, MARKETING GETS MUCH STUDY NOW State Officials Plan to Improve the General Situation by District System The question of finding suitable and ample markets for their crops, which has worked a hardship to the farm ers of Pennsylvania for. many years and in some communities still works against the efforts of the farmers to raise maximum crops, is on a fair way to be solved. The State Department of Agriculture is now engaged in work ing out some method of assisting the farmers in isolated districts to market their farm products. The problem of the best means and method to develop markets for the products of the farms that are somewhat, removed from the cities and the market centers Is a big one. but plans that are now under way are expected to aid materially during the coming season. With the source of sale for their products established, many farmers will work for better quality and larger production in their farm crops and the aid that the Department of Agricul ture can give in finding a market for these products will mean much more profit to the farmer for his labors. The marketing problem is one which has the attention of the United States government at the present, time through the bill introduced in Con gress by Senator Sheppard, of Texas. This bill provides for the establish ment of a National Chamber of Agri culture with units made tip by town ship, county and State bodies. In this way the marketing work will be organ ized in communities and will have ihe assistance of the county. State and national associations to carry it for ward. The bill provides that an organ ization of twenty farmers in a town ship can form a nnlt and when four township units have been organized a county chamber can be organized. When one-third of the counties of any State are organized a State Chamber of Agriculture can be formed and granted a charter by the national body. Prom its inception the President of the United States has the authority to ap point the necessary officers and nine members, six of whom shall be prac tical farmers. The work of the organization will consist, of helping to market the prod ucts of the farm and provides that when any member or townhip unit desires to offer for sale or to purchase any agricultural product or commodity related to the farm they communicate with the secretary of the local cham ber. who shall meet their demand or communicate it to the secretary of the county chamber, who in turn com municates with the State chamber, and if the order cannot be filled there the matter goes to the national chamber to provide a market for the products offered for sale or desired to be pur chased. This system will provide a nation wide market, if necessary,'to dispose of the products offered by any one township or county unit and is thought to be a big step in solving the mar keting problem. The bill is sponsored and backed by the Secretaries and Commissioners of Agriculture in a •number of the most prominent agri cultural States. . ' S. P. C. A. Notes 1 Next week will be, "Be Kind to Animals Week," followed by Humane Sunday, May 21. This will be an oc casion of great importance to ani mals all over the United States. In many places elaborate programs have been prepared, covering every day of the week. Boston and Philadelphia are two cities especially famous for their in terest in animal protection. In each of these places the following outline will be carried out: Monday—Editorials in all the local newspapers; Tuesday. Addresses in the public schools; Wednesday, noon meetings for factory employes; Thurs day, Special addresses to Boy Scouts, and Teamsters' Unions; Friday, Chil dren's Pets Exhibitions; Saturday, which is Natural Horse Day, work horse parades; Sunday, sermons on "Kindness" in the churches, and spe cial exercises in Sunday Schools. Is llarrisburg to fall behind in this humane work? The local S. P. C. A. is active and interested, but it can do little without the co-operation of the clergy, teachers in day schools and Sunday Schools, and parents. Why not help make a red-letter week in the anti-cruelty calendar? If ignorant how to go about it, in formation or suggestions will be gladly given by inquiry at Society Headquarters. No. 7 North Third Street. Bell Telephone 2687. Many a good work fails because the workers have an exaggerated notion of what must be done to make an im pression. The llarrisburg S. P. C. A. does not ask impossibllites; it does ask that every one who comes in touch with children, who employs drivers, who has opportunity to inter est large numbers of people—ln the schools, factories or churches, will, in some simple way, try to develop a Quick Way to Whiten Discolored Teeth While the cleansing of the teeth seems fairly well assured by regular use of the tooth brush, this can by no means be depended upon to maintain the whiteness and luster of the enamel. This fact is only too well appreciated by thousands of particular men and women who, in spite of the liberal use of various tooth powders, pastes and liquids, seem unable to remove the tinge of yellow or gray from the front of their teeth, or black or brownish fringes about the edges. It will be welcome news to all such that every stain and discoloration can be completely and quickly removed by the use of ordinary retined avatol. If used daily instead of the usual denti frice, the disagreeable tints will not re appear and the teeth will always have that spotless milky whiteness and sparkling beauty so much admired but so seldom seen. The effectiveness of avatol is all the more remarkable be cause II is so perfectly harmless. In stead of ecratuning or eating into the enamel or injuring the gums, it helps keep teeth, gums and mouth in a healthy state. Druggists usuallv have the refined avatol in 23-cent tubes and It can be used the same way a tooth paste is used, putting .lust a little on the brush.—Advertisement. I Foul Breath? Coaled Tongue?

JITNEY RULES IN EFFECT AT ONCE Public Service Commission Is sues a General Regulation For the Whole State A general regulation to affect all jitneys or auto-busses operated in the State of Pennsylvania has been framed by the Public Service Commission which it is believed will cover all phases of the situation caused by the operation of such vehicles as common carriers. It was promulgated last night and is the result of careful con sideration of the entire subject by the commissioners. Some time ago the commission ruled that jitneys having regular runs must take out certificates. The new rules will make the conditions under which they operate. The order is substantially as fol lows: Certificates of public convenience evidencing the approval of the com mission will be "limited to the route and number of cars and particularly to each automobile or auto-bus desig nated in the certificate." Application may be made for the approval of addi tional cars, including substitutions and replacements, certified by affi davit. but certificates will be non transferable. Automobiles or auto-busses author ized to be common carriers shall have painted on each side of the vehicle three lines containing the name of the peison to whom certificate is issued, the words "auto-bus" and the num ber of the Public Service certificate. Persons holding certificates will not be allowed to carry more persons than the seating capacity of the designated car, and the filed rates and charges must be posted in each car. The com mission reserves the right to revoke any certificate.
