The Misses Pcarscn have opened
their house at 503 North Front street
after a three weeks' automobile trip In
the White Mountains. The first day
they reached beautiful Morristown
with its charming inn and Washing
ton's "headquarters," second only to
Mount Vernon In historical interest.
The next day they arrived at Water
bury with the fine Hotel Elton, where
they stopped, ?.nd the next Manchester,
Vt.. the Mecca of all golf enthusiasts,
with the grand Mount Equinox domi
nating the country around. Then on
to Lake Sinope, reaching the Profile
House, White Mountains, on Friday.
Their stay here was not only spent in
drives and walks among the grandest
of mountains, but they helped in the
Red Cross work which has been car

E.W. CAREY, FAMOUS
TANLAC MAN, HERE
.Arriving From West. Visitor Registers
at the Commonwealth
For Stay
E. W. Carey, the celebrated "Tanlac
"Man," is a visitor. He is registered
at the Commonwealth Hotel.
Mr. Carey comes to Harrisburg from
the large Western cities, where he
attracted widespread attention
through his views on health and hy
giene. Mr. Carey is a man of rare
talents, magnetic force and charm of
manner, and he never ceases to sur
prise you with the infinite variety of
his knowledge and its absolute cor
rectness and thoroughness.
Mr. Carey claims chiefly that most
of the ill health of to-day is due al
most entirely to those habits which
best distinguish the white man from
the savage of the jungle. He says that
nine times out of ten it is the result,
more or less, of a weak, disordered
•tomach. and that nine times out of
ten thesp disorders are due to too
much eating and drinking and too lit
tle of the proper out-of-door exercise
■and air.
But it is always possible, he de
clares to make some effort toward
healthful living, and, in connection
with expressions of his views, he is
introducing his premier preparation,
Tanlac, to prove his advanced
thoughts.
Tanlac, which is in the nature of a
herbal tonic and system purifier, is
called the "Master Medicine," and It is
made mainly from the roots, barks,
herbs and flowers that are gathered
from the remotest parts of the earth.
The medicine obtains its high uniform
efficiency by the personal direction of
Herr Joseph Trimbach, a noted Ger
man chemist.
It is claimed that Tanlac quickly
overcomes stomach, kidney and intes
tinal ailments, well as catarrhal af
fections, and will actually prolong life
by restoring and keeping up the vigor
of youth.
In Chicago, St. Louis, Philadelphia
and Pittsburgh, thousands have been
converted to his views and have been
benefited by Tanlac.
Mr. Carey, it is understood, is some
what of a philanthropist, and gives
largely of his income annually to char
ity and the suffering public.
The agency for Tanlac is awarded
to only one druggist in each citv, and
Mr. Carey personally directs Its'intro
duction so that it may do the most
good. He is now here to determine
whether or not Harrisburg will war
rant the introduction of the famous
formula in this city.—Advertisement.

Greeks Fighting Bulgars
Since Sunday, Many Dead
London, Aug. 23. —Greek troops
have been fighting the Bulgarians in
the vicinity of Seres since Sunday
morning, says an Athens dispatch to
the Exchange Telegraph Company.
The Greek commander at Seres has
called to arms all the reservists in that
locality, says the dispatch. That the
fighting is of a stubborn character is
indicated by the fact that a large
number of Greek soldiers have been
killed.
It was stated in a Paris dispatch
yesterday that the Fourth Greek Army
Corps had fallen back from Seres as
well as from Kavala and Drama.
Seres is an Important city of about 30,-
000 population, 45 miles northeast of

U-Boat Rammed in Sea
Fight Returns to Germany
Amsterdam. Aug. 23.—An official
German report says that a submarine
which was rammed after sinking a
British cruiser has returned to port.
Whether a second German submarine
was destroyed can only be decided
when all the reports of submarines
have been received.
"Regarding British attempts to deny
that a British destroyer was sunk and
a British battleship damaged," the
statement says, "we refer to the offi
cial German report of August 20 which
is maintained in all points. The al
leged retreat as stated In the British
admiralty report, of the German high
sea fleet, before which the British high
sea forces nowhere appeared, is ima
ginative."
The British official statement of the
sinking of the British cruisers Not
tingham and Falmouth by German
submarines in the North Sea on Sat
urday, August 19, said that one Ger
man submarine was destroyed and that
another was rammed and possibly
sunk.

SOLDIERS' VOTES
BEING ARRANGED
Attorney General and Adju
tant General Working Out
the Details Now
Attorney General Francis Shunk
Brown last night completed bis study
of the provisions, of the constitution
and the acts cl" the Legislature rela
tive to the \ Otlny of the soldiers and
the conclusions were sent to Gover
nor Brumbaugh in Maine. Mr. Brown
holds that the soldiers may vote and
that registration and other laws are
not t bar them while they are in Fed
eral service. A formal statement will
be issued by the Governor on the sub
ject.
Adjutant General Stewart last night
issued his circular to the Guardsmen
informing them of the steps under
way and what must be done regarding
assessment of voters. The general's
circular is as follows:
"As the result of a conference with
the Attorney General's Department,
and in view of the possibility of the
organizations of the National Guard
of Pennsylvania, now in the active
service of the United States, being de
tained in the field before the flate of
the next general election, the follow
ing suggestions prepared by the At
torney General's Department are pul"
lished for the guidance and informa
tion of all concerned.
"To the citizens of Pennsylvania
now in actual military service under
a requisition from the President of the
United States or by the authority of
this commonwealth.
"Your attention is called to the
I fact, that a general election occurs on
November seventh, one thousand, nine
hundred and sixteen, at which elec
| tion there is to be chosen. Presidential
electors, a United States Senator, a
State Treasurer, an Auditor General, a
judge of the Supreme court, represen
tatives in Congress, senators in the
General Assembly. Representatives in
the General Assembly and mine in
spectors. The constitution of this
State provides, that a person in mili
tary service does therefore, lose his
residence and it is further provided,
that soldiers In the actual military ser
vice may vote In such manner as is
prescribed by law. The Act of As
sembly of August 25, 1864, entitled an
act"to regulate elections of sodiers
in actual military service" provides a
system, whereby votes may be cast
and canvassed. The details necessary
for taking such votes are now being
worked out. so that, no qalified elec
tor will be denied the privilege of
casting his ballot on electlno day. At
tention is directed to Art. VIII, of the
constitution which provides among
other things, that before a person of
twenty-two years of age or upwards
can vote, he must have paid within
two years, a State or county tax. which
tax must be assessed at least two
months and paid at least one month
before the election. The Act of 1864
above referred to, provites, that every
private and noncommissioned officer
may pay a tax of ten cents to the tax
collector of his district, or to the
county treasurer, and that he shall be
exempt from all other personal taxes
during his continuance in service.
Commissioned officers must pay the
usual personal taxes. Under a later
tct, it is unlawful for any person to pay
or cause to be paid, any occupation or
poll tax assessed against any elector,
except on written and signed order
of such elector authorizing such pay
ment to be made, which written or
signed order must be presented at
least thirty days prior to the date of
holding the election, at which such
elector desires to vote. Blank forms
will be furnished later by the Secre
tary of the Commonwealth, whereby
a soldier can authorize some one at
home to pay his taxes and receive &
tax receipt. No such order is neces
sary In order to be assessed.
"In view of the foregoing, it is
suggested, that the soldiers should
communicate with some one at home
and see that they are assessed for
county purposes, which assessment
should be made not later than Sep
tember pixtli, and when assessed their
friend should advise them. Citizens,
who have paid a State or county tax
within the last two years, are not re
qured to pay any further tax in or
der to vote at the election held In
Novemter of thin year.
"It is refiueslM that commanding
officers without delay take the neces
sary steps to have every member of
the comman-l fully and duly advised."

as She Inherits $20,000
Morysville, Cal., Aug. Mrs.
Margaret Bordwell. 79, pioneer resi
dent of Marysville, dropped dead
while at work In the Marysville can
nery. Two hours after her death the
news reached Marysville that Mrs.
Bordwell had inherited a fortune of
$20,000 left by an uncle who died in
New York.
Mrs. Bordwell went to work in the
cannery in order to earn a living for
herself. Over-exertion and a weak
heart caused her death.
Woman Arrested as Thief
When Bag Snags Stockings
Cincinnati, Ohio. Mrs. Elizabeth
Rahn, who was charged with petit lar
ceny, was exonerated completely in
Municipal Court of the charge of tak
ing two pairs of stockings from a de
partment store.
The hose had been found hanging in
the mesh of her handbag by a house de
tective. Mrs. Rahn told Judge Alex
ander that she was unaware that the
stockings had been caught in her hand
bag. Many witnesses testified to the
good character of Mrs. Rahn. She is
a property owner.
IF YOU WORRY, READ THIS
Worry never brought any good to
anybody. But, you say, "Idon't worry
because I want to, I worry because I
can't help it." Or, "1 worry because
I have so much to worry about."
We all have our troubles and worry,
of course, makes matters worse. The
patient generally recognizes this fact
without Deing able to profit by it.
The doctor who could meet this ner
rous condition and cure it would be
the most popular medical man alive.
But he cannot do it because the form
of nervous exhaustion known as neuras
thenia, of which worry is a characteristic
symptom, must be cured by the patient
himself. That is why you should writ®
today for the book "Diseases of the
Nervous System" and read the chapter
on "Neurasthenia." Bo many people
have read it and written back, "Tui«
hits my case exactly, I am giving the
treatment a trial and being benefited,"
that the Dr. Williams Medicine Co.,
Schenectady, N. Y. has had a lot of
these books printed and will send you
a copy free on request.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are a non
alcoholic tonic, particularly suited for
nervous, neurasthenic people. Your ,
druggist sells them or they will be mail- j
ed postpaid on receipt of price, 60 centa
per box, sis boxes for $3, 6Q.

vent Spread of Infantile
Paralysis
In an effort to prevent spread of In
fantile paralysis in the State, Com
missioner of Health Dixon ast night
directed that no children under six
teen be admitted to fairs. Letters were
sent to twenty-three local agricul
tural associations and officers of
county fairs directing that children
under sixteen years of age be exclud
ed from the meetings of such associa
tions. The reason given for this ex
clusion is to prevent the crowding of
children within the common carriers,
about the entrances to association
grounds and in the enclosed struc
tures where many exhibits are dis
ployed.
The letter to the Grangers' picnic
exhibition at Williams Gaove, in
Cumberland county, where 160,000
persons were in attendance last year,
read as follows:
"Mr. R. H. Thomas, Jr.,
Mechanicsburg, Pa.
"Dear Sir:
"Owing to the number of cases of in
fantile paralysis occurring in various
points in Pennsylvania and to the
general quarantine now established
against this disease, it' is advisable
that children under sixteen years of
age be excluded from attendance on
meetings of agricultural societies,
county fairs and other largely at
tended meetings otherwise, crowds
of children may be brought together
in common carriers, about, entrance
gates and in Inclosed structures in a
way that will increase the chance of
spreading this disease.
"I am writing you at this time so
that you give widespread pub
licity to the fact that children will not
be admitted to the meetings of your
association from August Bth to Sep
tember 2nd."
Five hundred and twenty-six cases
of infantile paralysis were reported
to the State Department of Health
with diagnosis confirmed from July
Ist to last night. Three hundred and
eighteen of these cases occurred in
the city of Philadelphia.
During the twenty-four hours end
ing last night the cases reported and
confirmed outside of Philadelphia
were one each from Wllllamsport,
Langhorne, Qulncy, Berlin township,
■ttayne county; Berwyn. Washington
township, Lehigh county; Swarth
more, Lyndora, Harnedsvllle, and two
each from Hazelhurst, Dunmore.
The total number of deaths from
July Ist was 139. Ten deaths having
been reported yesterday.
