Wood Pile And Was Sore From
Head to Foot Found
Quick Relief.
Once upon a time Edwin Putnam,
who lives in the quiet, pretty hamlet
of Wendel Depot, Mass., climbed up
into a loft to pet some building mate
rial, just as many another man living
In the country must often do. Sud
denly he slipped and fell. Ten feet
below was a pile of wood, knotted
and gnarled. It was a nasty tumble,
and Mr. Putnam was injured pain
fully in th<* back, he was covered with
bruises, and was sore from head to
foot.
The next day he bought a bottle of
Sloan's Liniment whici' ">. i teeii rev
ommended to him. Within a very
few hours the soreness had vanished
and the lameness had disappeared. lie
was an active man once more.
Sloan's Liniment can be obtained

Leon Rice Is Highest
Priced Church Singer
Leon Hire, the popular American
l '••nor. who is to sing here Monday, j
October 30. has been what is said to i
ho the highest price for a church solo-I
Ist in the world.
The New York Musical Courier!
commenting- upon it says: "Leon Rice
the New York tenor has been offered
the largest salary in the world for a
church singer—sloo a Sunday. This
offer comes from a church in Texas.
Mr. Rice sang in this church during
1909 under a most unusual contract.
He received what was at that time one
of the largest salaries in the country
on condition that his singing should
attract a capacity audience at each
service—the church seating 1,200 per.
, j sons.
j Hiss singing proved so popular that
almost every Sunday people were turn
| ed away.
At the conclusion of his contract
1 Mr. Rice was induced to remain four
| months longer—until he went to Eu
| rope for further study.
Since that time the officials of the
Texas church have been endeavoring'
! to secure Mr. Rice for another en- !
j gagement—hence the offer of SIOO a!
I Sunday.
Concert and recital work is now oc
| cupying all of Mr. Rice's attention, and
he is in great demand. He will un
| doubt edly be greeted by a largo and
representative audience when he gives
his Evening of Song at Stevens Me- j
j mortal Church October 30.

FORT LOUDON LINE
IS TURNED DOWN
Commissioner Rilling Sharply
Calls Attention to the Stock
Valuation
The Public Service Commission in
an opinion by Commissioner John S.
Killing handed down last night re
fused permission to the McConnells
burg and Fort Louden Railway Com
pany for permission to sell Its prop
erty to the McConnellsburg and Fort
Railroad Company. It was
proposed to transfer the physical
property of the railway company,
worth not more than $54,164,01, in
exchange for sfis,ooo of first mortgage
bonds and $50,000 of stocks of the
railroad company or a total of $115,-
000. This the commission refuses to
permit.
Commissioner Rilling who wrote
the commission's opinion which was
concurred in by all the commissioners
held:
"It would appear that the apprr
cants are seeking to do that which is
clearly forbidden by the Constitution
and laws of the Commonwealth.
Conceding that the construction and
operation of the proposed railroad
would be of great benefit to the pub
lic, can this commission close its eyes
to the facts set forth in this applica
tion? All stocks and bonds of all
public service companies can be only
issued for proper value received in
compliance with constitutional provi
sion and the acts of assembly enacted
to carry the same into effect and in
tended to protect the confiding and
investing public, against parting with
their money in the purchase of highly
Inflated securities. The sale of the
property contemplated by the applica
tion we are asked to approve can
easily be made without violating tho
law. There is no reason why it should
not be sold for either in cash or in
stocks and bonds of the company as
is provided by law and the provisions
|of the Constitution. Upon the appli-1
icant filing an amended application in!
j compliance with the suggestions here

CLEVER WOMEN
Dm gasoline to dry clean every
thing at homo and aava
*5 In an hour.
You will never again pay enormous
prlees for dry cleaning after trying
this. Any woman can clean and re
new the appearance of yokes, ribbons,
satins, laces, silks, furs, shirtwnistp,
Swiss, lawn, organdie and chiffon
dresses, kid gloves and shoes, neck
ties. children's clothes, suits, caps,
woolen garments, fancy vests, drap
eries, rugs, in fact, any and every
thing that would be ruined with soap
and water.
Get two ounces of solvite at any
drug store and put it in two gallons
of gasoline, where it quickly dissolves.
Then put in the goods to be cleaned.
After a little rubbing out they como
looking bright and fresh ns new. You
will tind nothing fades, shrinks or
wrinkles, requiring no pressing.
You would have to pay $5 at a dry
cleaning establishment for the clean
ing which can be done at home as
easily as laundering. Any grocery
or garage will supply the gasoline
and your druggist will sell you two
ounces of solvite which is simply a
gasoline soap, then a large dishpan
or wash boiler completes your dry
cleaning outfit.
