: HIS NAME WAS
EJKESCHEJAXEWICZ
In the September Woman's Home
. Companion there is a short story in
which the writer says:
"His name was Ejkeschejanewicz,
1 which, after all, was rather more than
( a mouthful for any New York board
ing housekeeper, not to mention the
servant girl. Therefore the landlady
called him Mr. E., ror brevity's sake
and by way of identification, and so
likewise did everybody else in the
house who had occasion to call him
anything at all. For he was an un
obtrusive, almost unsociable, taciturn
person, having but little to say be

day to any of the three men or either

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
UNIVERSITY CLUB
TO OPEN SOON
Renew Activities For Launch
ing Harrisburg's Most Recent
Club Acquisition
With the approach of the fall Rea
son, the activities of the various clubs
and associations of the city will be
renewed. The recently organized Uni
versity Club of Harrisburg, which now
numbers among its members approxi
mate] wy 150 men in every business
and profession, who have attended
a college or university for two
or more years, will be comfortably
housed for the next few years on the
third floor of the Hershey building
at Front and Market streets.
The entire third floor has been
taken over by the board of directors
of the club, and the remodeling and
improvements are expected to bo fin
ished within a week. After that, it
only remains for the furniture to be
installed before the club is ready for
occupancy. There will be a formal
opening in the early part of Sep
tember.
Every effort Is being; made by those
In charge to make the club quarters
as attractive and comfortable as pos
sible. The large, airy front room fac
ing the river and Market street will
be used for lounging and reading pur
poses. To the rear is the poolroom,
where two tables will be installed,
and beyond that the kitchenette and
bathrooms and living rooms, which
will be sub-let by the club to those
of its members who care to live in
the comfortable quarters provided.
Double ceilings with air chambers,
skylights and many windows make
the lightest and airiest rooms to be
found anywhere in the city. Fire
escapes have been placed at the front
and rear of the building in accord
ance with the law.
The membership of the club is
steadily increasing, although no sys
tematic campaign has heen waged.
Many of the city's most prominent
bankers, business and professional
men have identified themselves with
the organization.

Third street.
Vernacular of Rifle Range;
How to "Call Your Shots"
To describe the location of their
shots, riflemen speak of the target as
if it were a clock face. Thus a shot
in the inner to the right of the bull,
at the height of its center and half
way between the limiting circles, is
a '3 o'clock three, half-way out." A
hit just below the bull's-eye is a "6
o'clock four, hanging on the bull."
Similarly, a "9 o'clock four, close in"
will indicate a shot a little to the
left of the black. One in the center of
the bull's-eye is a "pinwheel." A spot
ter touching the bull is a "wait" and
one just inside it a "nipper."
The direction of the wind is also re
ferred to the clock. "A 6 o'clock
wind" blows from the firing point
toward the target, a "3 o'clock wind"
directly from the right, a "9 o'clock
wind from the left" and a "12 o'clock
wind" directly from the target.
When the wind shifts between 5 and
7 o'clock or between 11 and 1 it is
said to be "fishtailing," or a "fishtail
wind," and it m&kes gogod shooting
difficult; so also frequent changes of
light make things hard, the rifleman's
wish being for "a 6 o'clock wind and
a gray sky. September Outing.

Greenwich, Conn., Aug. 17.—Dr. T.

a nut the souirrel broke one of its
teeth. Dr. Flanagan took the little

treated and crowned the tooth.

JUST wherein lies the reason for the use of vegetable preparations for infants

Why are any but vegetable preparations unsafe for infants and children ?
Why are Syrups, Cordials and Drops condemned by all Physicians and

Why has the Government placed a ban on all preparations containing, among
