With Reporters to Keep
Charities Before Public
By Associated Press
Indianapolis, Ind., May 11.—The
preliminaries out of the way, the
forty-third annual meeting of the Na
tional Conference of Charities and
Corrections began the real work of its
sessions here to-day. Meetings were
held in each of the nine sections Into

Closer co-operation frith newspaper
reporters as a means to keep the work
of the charity organization societies
before the public was recommended
by Miss Charlotte Belle Mann, of Bal
timore. a former newspaper worker,
who spoke before the American Asso

the allied societies. She said the best
way to arouse interest in the work was
through the news story and that to get
the news stories, the reporters must
be interested.
Discuss Interstate Control
of Tuberculosis Problem
By Associated Press
Washington, May 11. lnterstate
control of the tuberculosis problem
is one of the principal subjects
for discussion before the National As
sociation for the Study and Prevention
of Tuberculosis which opened a two
day session here to-day.
Speakers urged that the Federal gov
ernment provide payment in specific
amounts to State or communities car
ing for nonresident indigent consump
tives. It was explained that many
western States are burdened by sup
porting patients who live elsewhere
come to their State for treatment and
become dependent.
This Will Stop Your
Hair From Falling
I: was Or. Sangerbund who first dis
covered that dandruff and falling hair
were caused by microbes.
And now that Parisian Sage, the
wonderfully delightful preparation
Ilia? kills tlie dandruff germs can be
secured at all drug and toilet counters,
the clean people of this country have
awakened to the fact that dandruff is
unnecessary; that falling hair and
itching scalp can be quickly stopped,
I pnd that anyone who frequently uses
Parisian Sage should never grow bald.
To every reader who wishes to
eradicate disgusting dandruff, stop
falling hair, and have an immaculately
j clean scalp free from Itchiness, we
strongly recommend Parisian Sage.
Parisian Saee is sold for not more
than 50 cents a large bottle. It is an
idonl, daintily perfumed liquid, free
from grease and stickiness, and will
<ause hair to grow lustrous and luxur
iant. H. C. Kennedy always has a
large supply and guarantees it to you.
PN DARKENS
GRAY HAIR
Everybody Uses It So Handy.
Harmless—No Dye.
By applying Q-Ban Hair Color Re
storer, like a shampoo, to your hair
and scalp, all your gray, streaked
with gray, prematurely gray or faded,
dry or harsh hair quickly turns to an
even, beautiful dark shade, so every
strand of your hair, whether gray or
not, becomes glossy, fluffy, lustrous,
soft, thick, with that even, dark shim
' mer of beautiful, radiant, healthy hair
—just as you like to have your hair
appear—fascinating and abundant,
without even a trace of gray showing,
only natural, evenly dark, lovely hair.
Q-Ban is absolutely harmless; no dye,
ready to use. Only 50c for a big bot

WAR ORDERS ARE
FEATURE OF WEEK
Contracts For 150,000 Tons of
Shell Booked; Trade
Shows Down
"The placing: of new contracts f6r
Upward of 150,000 tons of shell at eel
in the form of blooms and rounds and
the negotiations for as much more war
steel, including 50.000 tons for Russia
and Italy," says the Iron Age in its
weekly review to-day, "are the chief
developments of the week. Otherwise
the steel trade has slowed down, as it
has long needed to do.
"Steel companies which some weeks
ago were turning away domestic busi
ness for this year seem to have re
served space for renewals of contracts
with belligerent countries. Foreign
and homo consumers in some cases
have virtually competed for the avail
able steel, the highest price deciding
which should get it.
"The labor situation in the Pitts
burgh district is clearing up. The Joss
of pig iron and steel production was
small, but foundry and machine shop
strikes are still noticeably affecting
consumption.
"The Steel Corporation's rail con
tracts in April prevented a consid
erable failing off from the previous
rate of increase in unfilled orders. At
the unheard-of total of 9,829,551 tons
on April SO, last month's increase was
498,550 tons, against 762,035 tons in
March and 046,199 tons In February."

MUCH SENTIMENT
FOR TWO LOANS
Would Motorize Fire Depart
ment and Make Steelton Best
Paved Borough
Prominent citizens of the borough
are uniting in an effort, to insure pass
age of the two improxement loans to
be voted upon in Steelton next Tues
day. The Municipal League to a man
almost has gone upon record as favor
ing adoption of the two measures and
will urge their friends to vote "Yes"
on Tuesday.
In speaking of the loans this morn
ing a prominent resident said:
"If Steelton voters wish to maintain
the borough's reputation as a pro
gressive town they should by all means
approve both bond Issues. By so doing
they will insure motorization of the
borough's very efficient Are depart
ment and also permit council to de
vise more efficient plans for collecting
garbage.
"They will also make it possible to
make Steelton the best paved borough
in Pennsylvania. With the eight miles
of paved streets in the borough now,
passage of the $55,000 loan for paving
will make it possible to have every
thoroughfare of any importance in
the borough paved.
"To defeat the loans would be a step
hackward. It would be telling outside
people that Steelton is dissatisfied with
its unrivaled public improvements.
For reasons of civic pride the voters
should give both itemß their hearty
! endorsement."

Middletown Man Escapes
Electrocution at Reading
A. L. Wagner, a prominent resident
of the Third ward, had a miraculous
escape from electrocution Tuesday
while ascending Neversink Mountain
near Reading in a trolley car. Mr.
Wagner was attending the State con
vention of Golden Eagles as represen
tative from Brownstone Castle, No.
456, of Middletown, and decided to
take the trip up the mountain. He
boarded an open trolley ear and
seated himself at the outside end of
the seat of which he was the only
occupant.
About half way up the mountain,
the overhead trolley wire, heavily
charged with electricity, broke. One
writhing, spluttering end wrapped it
self around Mr. Wagner's head and
face. Instinctively he reached out his
right hand and tore the deadly wire
away but not before he was painfully
burned about the nose and mouth.
One side of his moustache was re
moved as with a razor, his hat was
cut in several places and his suit
burned about the shoulders. The hand
with which he grasped the wire was
badlv seared by the powerful current
which hurled him to the floor of the
car. He was taken to a physician's
office and later to the Homeopathic
Hospital in Reading. He returned
home yesterday afternoon. In addi
tion to his burns, he is suffering con
siderably from nervous shock caused
by his trying experience.

IRISH AFFAIRS ~
BEING DISCUSSED
[Continued From First Page]
motion expressing dissatisfaction with
the Irish administration.
The debate In the house of commons
is regarded as the more Important, foi
there (he government comes under the
crossfire of the whole Irish party and
I of a large number of Liberal mem
bers who are determined to bring to
i an epd not only arrests and executions
i in Ireland, but martial iaw.
Thousands Arrested
The execution in county Cork of
Thomas Kent, although it took place
before Premier Asquith gave his assur
ance that no further death sentences
would be carried out until the debate
was concluded, has brought forth fur
ther protests from Irish parliamentary
circles. The Nationalists also are con
cerned at the continued arrest and de
portation to England for confinement
in English jails of rebels from all parts
of the country. The number of arrests
has not yet been made known, but it
must be several thousand.
A number of lists containing 400 or
more names, of persons arrested have
been published.
Dublin Casualties 1.(100
The latest estimates of casualties in
Dublin places them at about 1,000 of
which 400 were killed. These figures
include soldiers, insurgents and civil
ians.
The fact is noted in Dublin that
since the insurrection there has been
an increase in the rate of recruiting
there.
Even while the controversy over the
causes and manner of handling the
insurrection is still in progress, ef
forts are being made to reach a com
promise on the Home Rule question.
Those wlio most desire this are urging
that Lord Harding, after he has con
cluded his inquiry into the disturb
ances, shall be appointed Lord Lieu
tenant of Ireland. It is believed that
a diplomat would be more likely to
bring the two parties together than
would be a politician. There are
rumors in parliamentary circles that
negotiations of some kind are being
arranged and that Sir Edward Carson
and John Redmond, the leaders of the
two parties are concerned with them.
Royal Commission Named
to Investigate Rebellion
London. Slay 11. There were four
notable developments in the Irish
situation.
The resignation of Baron Wimborne,
Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, was an
nounced, a Royal commission to in
vestigate the Irish rebellion was
named. Premier Asquith admitted that
an Irish editor, T. Sheehy Skeffington,

casionally if you eat meat
regularly.

Backache and Bladder
weakness.
No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make a mistake by
! (lushing the kidneys occasionally, says,
a well-known authority. Meat forms
i uric acid which clogs the kidney pores
so they sluggishly filter or strain only
: part of the waste and poisons from
| the blood, then you get sick. Nearly
1 all rheumatism, headaches, liver
trouble, nervousness, constipation,
i dizziness, sleeplessness, bladder dis
-1 orders come from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you fee? a dull ache in
the kidneys or your back hurts, or if
the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of
i sediment, irregular of passage or at
tended by a sensation of scalding, get
about fouc ounces of Jad Salts from
any reliable pharmacy and take a
tablespoonful in a glass of water be
fore breakfast for a few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This famous
, salts is made from the acid of grapes
,! and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and lias been used for generations to
| Hush clogged kidneys and stimulate
: them to activiiy. also to neutralize the
; | acids in urine so it no longer causes
. i irritation, thus ending bladder dis
j orders.
j Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
injure; makes a delightful effervescent
litliia-water drink which all regular .
meat eaters should lake now and then )
! to keep the kidneys clean and the j
blood pure, (hereby avoiding serioua'

your feet warm and dry, and drink
' plenty of lemonade.
This advice, says an aulhority, is
helping, but as all know who have
II suffered, rheumatism is a stubborn
disease and yields only to a remedy
mighty enough to conquer it.
Many doctors have prescribed and
i hundreds of helpful druggistß have
; advised a half teaspoonful of Rheunia
once a day, because they know that
■ powerful Rlieuma, harmless as it is,
. acts with speed and overcomes in a
few days the most torturing case of
rheumatism or sciatica.
Try Rheuma; 11. C. Kennedy and
