The Joy of a
Vacation may be
turned to the sorrow that
comes from indigestion. The
battle with hotel menus is a
losing one for the man with
a weak stomach. Happy is
the man who listens to the
call of the wild —who goes
fishing, hunting and canoe
ing—who takes with him
Triscuit, the Shredded
Whole Wheat wafer. Tris
cuit is made of the whole
wheat steam-cooked, shred
ded and baked. A tasty
Summer snack for the warm
days, supplying the greatest
amount of nutriment in
smallest bulk. Delicious
with butter, soft cheese
or marmalades. Made at

Shortage of Coal
Threatened
A recent bulletin from the
coal regions sounds this
warning:
Shorter hours; shortage of
labor; shortage in produc
tion; these are the conditions
now existing in the coal re
gions. Those who say, "We
will buy coal as and when we
want it," will discover that
the supply is nqt under pres
sure like water at the kitchen
sink, which can be drawn on
at will and without limit.
Existing conditions fore
shadow the most serious
shortage of coal this winter
that we have known since
the strike of 1902.
If you would be advised,
buy coal now—the supply is
sufficient for all orders, and
Kelley is still selling coal at
the old prices that obtained
before the recent advance.

Removes Hairy Growths
Without Pain or Bother
(Modes of To-day)
It is not necessary to use a painful
process to remove hairy growths, for
with a little delatone handy you can
keep the skin entirely free from these
beauty destroyers. To remove hair,
make a stiff paste with a little pow
dered delatone. and water. Spread
this on the hairy surface and in about
minutes rub off, wash the skin and
the hairs are gone. To guard against
disappointment, be careful to get real
delatone.

MODERN SAFETY
MUST BE THE RULE
Deputy Attorney General Kun
Says Present Day Must Be
Considered on Laws
Safety gates for mine cages may
be approved for use in coal mines of
Pennsylvania by Chief of Mines James
E. Roderick if they meet requirements
of safety contemplated by the acts
of the Legislature and rules and regu
lations of the department even if con
trol is not controlled by a method pre
scribed by a statute of 1911 accord
ing to an opinion given to Chief Ro
derick to-day by Deputy Attorney
General Joseph L. Kun. The gate in
question has been approved by twenty
seven of thirty bituminous inspectors
while three have not consented to its
use because of control being different
from what is required by the act of
five years ago. in rendering his de
cision Mr. Kun says "The reference
in the portion of the act above quoted
to the control of safety gates by the
cage at the top and intermediate land
ings" must be regarded merely as de
scriptive of appliances and apparatus
then known to be safe and efficient.
It is in no sense a mandatory provi
sion. To hold otherwise would put
a handicap and bar on improvement.
The Service Commission to
day fixed September 12 in Allentown
as the time for hearing the Bethle
hem bridge and grade crossing cases.
Orders have been issued for com
pany If, of the separate infantry bat
talion at Sunbufry, to proceed to-mor

amined and recruited as company F
of the Fourth infantry to replace the
Pottsville company which was trans
ferred to engineers. The Milton and
Williamsport companies will go to Mt.
Gretna to-morrow for recruiting duty.

a Hearing on Charges
Dr. H. A. Surface has been refused
a public hearing of charges against
him and is preparing for eventualities.
Dr. Surface to-day received a let
ter frem Secretary William H. Ball
statiniflhat the Governor had directed
him to refer Dr. Surface's request for
a hearing and_ inquiries which the
Zoologist had made of the Governor to
Secretary Pattbn.
The Zoologist then made a request
for a public hearing to the Secretary
and was refused in a most suave man
ner.
When asked what he intended to
do about it now Dr. Surface said that
he had always acted as the law and
the gospels directed and that he pro
| posed to abide by them now. He
added that the farmers and orchard
men of the State would probably be
given information from time to time
about the State government.
Dr. Surface to-day sent to the prin
! ters bulletins on the tent caterpillar
and the danger to orchards from mice
girdling trees. He plans to work in
his office up to the day set for the
end of his term when he says he will

for the accommodation of tiny Lena
Napolla, the only baby in Harrisburg
who is in a really serious condition

tin of the health department shows
that during the twenty-four-hour pe
riod which ended at 10 a. m. 31 chil
dren died of the disease and 165 new
cases were repoited in the five bor
oughs of New York city. These figures

on the Dniester.
Making a stand, the Teutons finally
brought the Russians to a halt. The
break in the lines, however, has made
a regrouping of the Teutonic forces
necessary and this is now in progress.
With rapid strides the Russians are
forcing their way along the Dniester
in Galicia in the direction of Halicz,
considered one of the main outlying
defenses of Lemberg on the south.
General Letchitzky's army has al
ready reached the Dniester to the
south of Mariampol. a town only 8
miles southeast of Halicz. Likewise
they are pressing toward Halicz fur-,
ther north entering the town of Mon
asterzyski on the Stanislau-Buchacz
railroad, directly east of Halicz.
Italians Spread Out
Spreading out in fanlike forma
tion from Gorizia the Italians are pres
sing the Austri&ns to the east and
southeast along a twelve-mile front.
The principal thrust is apparently di
rected southeast toward Triest with
the probable object of forcing the
Austrlans from their saient in the
bend of the Isonzo south of Gorizia.

British pressure on the Somme front
Is being continuously exerted against
the Germans in the Bazentln-le-Petit

Haig's forces have made additional
progress north of both these places,

The French in the Somme region
are evidently preparing for a new of

trenches north of the river.
Austrian* Vainly Trying to
Reform Shattered Lines
By Associated Press
Rome, via Pans, Aug. 11. The
Importance of the Italian successes
nreuhd Gorizia is b<=:C< ming more evi
dent hourly. The battle is continuing
behind the' city over a front about 12
miles long. The Austrlans have re
treated along the railroad in the
direction of Dornberg, eight miles
southeast of Gorizia, and over the na
tional highway to Schon Pas, six
miles to the east, and are now at
tempting to reform their front on a
line extending from Vipaco to Tar
i nova.
Meanwhile the Austrians are at
tempting to take the offensive at
Monte Nero and various other points
of the Italian front, but thus far have
been unable to divert the Italians from
their operations behind Gorizia.
Popular enthusiasm is at high pitch
throughout Italy. Congratulations are
pouring in from all parts of the world
to King Victor Emmanuel and General
Cadorna. The king and the com
mander-in-chief have been particu
larly pleased by messages from Italians
in New York and other parts of the
United States.
Letimbro Fired on U-Boat;
Troops Believed on Board
Amsterdam. Aug. 11, via London.—
A semiofficial account of the sinking
by a submarine recently of the Italian
mail steamship Letimbro, received
here to-day from Vienna, says the
Italians fired on the submarine with
two guns, and that there were troops
on board.
"After the submarine had fired a
warning shot at a distance of 8.000
meters," the statement says, "the
vessel opened fire from two guns at
the stern and attempted to escape by
zigzagging. The submarine pursued
the steamship, replying to the fire
without hitting the vessel, which had
shown no flag. Later boats were
lowered by the steamer. After ascer
taining that no one remained on board
the steamship was sunk by the sub
marine.
"Approaching the boats, the sub
marine ascertained that of 30 persons
In one boat. 20 wore khaki which con
firms the suspicions of the submarine
commander that he had sunk a vessel
with troops on board."
Deeds of Heroism in
Lower Isonzo Action Many
Rome. Aug. 10. 9.30 A. M., via Paris.
Aug. 11, 12.30 A. M. —Latest reports
shows that the lower Isonzo action is
drawing to a close in its first stage
with the list of Austrian prisoners
growing. The number of men killed
or wounded is large.
From evidence arriving here the be
lief prevails that the victory of the
Italians was not due to the demoraliza
tion of tho Austrians, as the fighting
was the severest seen on this front.
The Austrians contested every foot of
the ground about Gorizia. even after
the loss of the strategic points of
AUGUST 11, 1916.
Monte Sabotino and Monte San
Michele.
While the success of the Italians j
undoubtedly was due largely to the ]
new heavy artillery, which matched
at last, after a year of waiting for
their manufacture, the heavy 305 mil
limetre Austrian guns, yet hand to
hand fighting was appalling in fierce
ness, bayonets, knives, bombs, cavalry
swords, pistols and arms of every de
scription being used.
Personal deeds of heroism were
plentiful, especially in connection with
the Italian use of a new method for
destroying barbed wire entanglements,
involving the almost certain death of
the soldier who plants the bomb for
this purpose.
The taking of Monte Sabotino, the
key to Gorizla and the vast section sur
rounding it, is regarded as the biggest
feat In all the fighting in the lower
Isonzo region.
