    To Have Perfect Skin
Throughout the Summer
These days the face needs special
care and attention. Flying dust and
dirt, the beating sun. are severe on
any skin. Their despoiling effects are
best overcome by the application or
pure mercollzed wax. This keeps skin
and pores in a cleanly condition, the
complexion beautifully white and spot
less. Discolored, freckled and rough
ened cuticle are actually absorbed by
it. ; One ounce of mercolized wax, ob
tainable at any drug store, is sufficient
to completely renovate a soiled com
plexion. It is used like cold cream, al
lowed to remain on over night, and
washed off in the morning.
As the skin tends to expand in warm
weather, causing wrinkles to form, a
good astringent lotion should be used.
Dissolve 1 oz. powdered saxollte in %
pt. witch hazel. Bathe the face in this
during the heat of the day or before
going out for theater or social affair.
It is a remarkable skin tightener and
wrinkle eraser.—Advertisement.
An Easy Way to
increase Weight
Good Advice For Thin Folks
The trouble with most thin folks
who wish to gain weight is that they
insist on drugging their stomach or
stuffing it with gieasy foods; rubbing
on useless "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 eat.
There is a preparation known to re
liable druggists almost everywhere
which seemingly embodies the missing
elements needed by the digestive
organs to help them convert food into
rich, fat-laden blood. This modern
treatment is called Sargol and has been
termed the greatest of flesh-builders.
Sargol aims through regeneration, re
construction powers to coax the stom
ach and intestines to literally soak 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 amazing transformation
should produce as with increased
weight the cheeks fill out, hollows
about neck, shoulders and bust disap
pear and from 10 to 20 pounds of solid,
healthy flesh is added to the body.
Sargol is absolutely harmless, inexpen
sive, efficient. G. A. Gorgas and other
leading druggists of this vicinity have
It and will refund your money If you
are not satisfied, as per the guarantee
found in every package.
NOTE: —Sargol is recommended only
ae a flesh builder and while excellent
results in cases of nervous indigestion,
etc., have been reported care should be
taken about using it unless a gain of
weight is desired.—Advertisement.
"Can't Cut Off My Leg,"
Says Railroad Engineer
" I am a railroad engineer; about 20
years ago my leg was seriously injured
in an accident out West. Upon my re
fusing to allow the doctor to amputate
it I was told it would be impossible to
heal the wound. I have tried all
kinds of salves and had many doctors
in the past 20 years, put to no avail.
Finally I resolved to use PETER
SON'S OINTMENT on my leg. You
cannot imagine my astonishment
when I found it was doing what over
100 things had failed to do. My leg is
now completely cured," —Gus Hauft,
799 Myrtle Ave., Brooklyn, N. Y.
"It makes me feel proud to be able
to produce an ointment like that,"
says Peterson. "Not only do I guar
antee Peterson's Ointment for old
sores and wounds, but for Eczema,
Salt Rheum, tTlcers, Itching Skin, and
Blind, Bleeding or Itching: Piles, and
I put up a big box for 25 cents, a price
all can afford to pay and money back
from your druggist if not satisfied."
"Peterson's Ointment takes the
burn out of Bunburn in 10 minutes.
Mail orders filled, charges prepaid by
Peterson Bros., Buffalo, N. Y."
«DRINK HOT WATER
FOR INDIGESTION
A Physician's Advice
"If dyspeptics, sufferers from gas,
wind or flatulence, stomach acidity or
sourness, gastric catarrh, heartburn,
etc., would take a teaspoonful of pure
Msurnted magnesia in half a glass of
hot water immediately after eating,
they would soon forget they were ever
afflicted with stomach trouble, and doc
tors would have to look elsewhere for
patients." In explanation of these
words a well known New York phvsl
cian stated that most forms of stomach
trouble are due to stomach aciditv and
fermentation of the food contents of
the stomach combined with an insuffici
ent blood supply to the stomach. Hot
water increases the blood supply and
hlsurnted magnesia instantly neutral
izes ttte excessive stomach' acid and
stops food fermentation the combina
tion of the two, therefore, being mar
velously successful and decidedlv pre
ferable to the use of artificial digest
ents, stimulants or medicines for indi
gestion.—Advertisement.

MEN ON READING
VOTE FOR STRIKE
Local Chairman Believes Sen
timent Is Strong; Hushing
Ballots to Employes
Trainmen employed by the Philadel
phia and Reading railroad are in.favor
of a strike if the railroads do not grant
the eight-hour demand. This was the
opinion expressed by W. M. Aughin
buugh, an engineer, 339 South Four
teenth street, to-day. He is a local
chairman for the brotherhoods, and is
directing the distribution of ballots
over the Reading system. Mr. Aughin
baugh said:
"1 believe that 99 per cent, of train-
HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH!
men favor a strike if they do not get |
their demands. I believe that the men
employed on the Reading system will
favor a strike. However, I do not
think there will lie a strike. Rather
than tie up the railroads of the coun
try, the United States Government will
get into the light and aid in bringing |
about a satisfactory adjustment. It is;
also my personal opinion that the rail- I
roads will not permit a strike."
Strike ballots are being rushed to
employes of the Philadelphia & Read
ins Railway Company. This explains
the advertisement in a morning paper
yesterday. It is the only way to reach
the men quickly. Ballots must be in
by July 26, and I must have them in
New York not later than August 1,"
said Mr. Aughinbaugh.
He was attending the convention of
Rrotherhood of Locomotive Firemen
and Enginemen at Denver and re
turned home Saturday. Notices were
sent to the men. but in order that all
employes would receive ballots, he
made a special call. Many responded
yesterday and others called Tor ballots
to-day.

As a result of the advancement of
Mr. Banks, James B. Phelan,assistant,

sition of assisrant passenger trainmas
