A Dreadful Coal Shortage The outstanding fact to-day is that the nation is face to face with the danger of a serious coal shortage. The alarm hit the country .in all parts about four weeks ago. It was then we had the first touch of cold weather. Householders in many cities went to their retail ers to get coal, snd much to their surprise were in formed that the entire order could not be filled. Before the newspapers had hardly said a word about it, gossip had carried the news to every part of the country. . This unprecedented situation is due to three causes; scarcity of labor, car shortage, and indif ference of consumers in not purchasing coal in sum mer months. Bituminous coal prices at the mines have advanc ed 10 per cent. We predict a rise in Anthracite before winter is an.

CELERY CROP CUT BY THE WEATHER State Reports Show a Decline in the Size of the Great Autumn Staple Discouraging reports oh the celery crop have been received by the State Department of Agriculture. The plants are small and short on account of the lack of rain during late summer. The wheat crop for 1916 is estimated at. 25,070,500 bushels, says the depart ment bulletin. Early estimates placed the crop a million and a half bushels above the yield, which was very dis appointing in the threshing. The average production of rye this year Is estimated at 16.9 bushels, against 17.2 bushels last year. The 1915 crop of oats was almost a record one and showed an average of 3 9 bushels to an acre, but this year unfavorable weather conditions have reduced the average yield per acre to 31 bushels. The crop is estimated at 32,571,000 bushels as against 43,095,000 bushels last year. The past season has been one of the most unfavorable in years for potatoes. With Incomplete figures the depart ment estimates the average yield per acre at 54 bushels as compared with 75 bushels last year and 106 bushels the year previous. Although the peach crop was just slightly over half of that of 1915, the average price per basket obtained for the Pennsylvania fruit was 89 cents as compared with 4 5 cents last year.

Hope to Complete Paxtori Creek • Invert by End of Week Finishing touches are being added to the Paxton creek invert operations north of State street by the Stucker Brothers Construction Company and by Saturday evening, barring unfavor able weather or other unexpected de lays, the gap in the great concrete gutter will be closed. And with the completion of this job, Harrisburg's big improvement program that includ ed the construction of the river dam, the river front wall and the creek invert will be accomplished. Uains and the difficulties that were experienced by the contractors in con trolling the water that frequently flooded the operations, delayed Stuck er Brothers Company to some extent although generally speaking, pretty good time was- made on the job. The gap of nearly 100 feet in the big gutter-drain was left thero last year in order that the great water mains to and from the reservoir might be lowered. GOLD FLOWING IX STEADY STREAM Xew York, Oct. 26. Bankers here expert that the British treasury will continue to export gold to this coun try as fast as the government mints can handle it. Since Monday of last week gold valued at $26,000,000 has entered the local assay office. Since May 10 the total value of British gold sent to the United States has reached $230,000,000. The assay office, it is understood, stands ready to receive $15,000,000 a week for an indefinite period. The British government, ac cording to bankers, wishes to pay cash for goods bought here, and while the proceeds of the various loans have gone further to meet this requirement than the actual gold, still the British officials want to supplement the loans constantly with more and more gold. THIS STOPS HAIR FROM FALLING OUT Ever try to count the dead fallen hairs in your comb and brush? They are nature's advance warning of fu ture baldness and proof that the dan gerous little dandruff germ is busy on your scalp. Ir. Sangerbund. the famous Paris specialist, first discovered that dand ruff and falling hair are caused by a microbe. Then came the discovery of the value of the real Parisian Sage (liquid form) in destroying the dand ryff germ and promptly preventing the further loss of hair. The effect of only three days' use of Parisian Sage is simply marvelous, and the Ameri can people have npw awakened to the fact tha'. dandruff Is Just as unneces sary as it is unhealthy, and that they can be quickly rid of it and save their hair by using a few ounces of Parisian Sage. Parisian Sage is sold for not more than SO cents a large bottle at drug and toilet counters everywhere. It is an ideal, daintily perfumed liquid, free from grease and stickiness, and will surely cause hair to grow soft, lustrous and really seem twice as abundant. II C.

BOWMAN'S—Main Floor BOWMAN'S—Fourth Floor BOWMAN'S—Main Floor BOWMAN'S—Third Floor FOODS INCREASE UNDER WILSON Families That Paid .*3OO Yearly When Taft Was President Now Pay $342 Washington, D. C., Oct. . -A statement issued from National Re publican Congressional Committee headquarters says: Under the Wilson administration and the Democratic tariff law the cost to the people of the United States, for fifteen articles of food alone has increased in the last four years approximately one-seventh. An American family, under the Taft administration, that spent S3OO per year for these foods, is now paying for the same articles, under the Wil ison administration, $3 42 annually. Figuring five persons to a family, 'this is an increase of $8.40 for every man, woman and child In the United : States, or the stupendous total of more I than $800,000,000. Under the Underwood tariff law and. the Wilson administration the high cost of living has Increased by leaps and bounds. Since June, 1912, tip to June, 1916, according to the latest available gov ernment statistics, there has been an fijoumanZ HARIIISBURI,, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1010. I increase of fourteen per cent, in most lot the staple foods. Promises Not Kept The Democrats have not kept their promise, made in the Baltimore plat form, to reduce the high cost of liv ing. On the contrary every family in the United States is paying higher | prices for the principal articles of j food, fourteen per cent, higher than it j cost them under the Taft admlnlstra- ! j tlon and a Republican tariff law. i In the Baltimore platform, on which , Wilson was elected President, is the I following plank: The high cost of living is a ser ious problem in every American home. The Republican party, in i its platform, attempts to escape from responsibility for present i conditions by denying, that they i are due to a protective tariff. We I ' take issue with them on this sub- j ject, and charge that excessive prices result In a large measure from the high tariff.laws enacted and maintained by the Republican party and from such trusts and commercial conspiracies fostered and encouraged by such laws? and we assert that no substantial re- { lief can be secured for the peo- | I pie without import duties on the ' II necessaries of life are materially j ! reduced and these criminal con- ] LI spiracles broken up. i i A fourteen per cent, increasp in the ' i j cost of the principal foodstuffs is the: ! way the Democrats and the Wilson' . i administration have kept this pledge i • I to the people. 11 The following table, prepared by | OCTOBER 26, 1916. the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the ■ Department of Labor, shows relative j prices of fifteen of the principal ar- i tides of food in June of each year, I ! 1912 to 1916, inclusive. To form a (basis for the table the price for June, ! j 1912, is placed at 100, and the price j I for each succeeding year Is figured ac cordingly by the bureau statisticians, j A careful calculation of this table j shows that with 100 as a basis fori 1912 the 1916 percentage Is 114, or an < increase of fourteen per cent, iir the cost of the combined foodstuffs since ! the declaration of the Democratic plat form.

I j ■ 1-1 A Simple Way to Remove Dandruff There is one sure way that has never failed to remove dandruff at once, and that is to dissolve it, then you destroy it entirely. To do this, just get about four ounces of plain, common liquid arvon from any drug store (this is all you will need), apply It at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. By morning, most If not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications will completely dissolve and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of it, no matter how much dandruff you may have. You will find all Itching and digging of the scalp will stop Instantly, and your hnlr will be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better.—Adver tisement. 3
