KEEP LOOKING YOUNG
It's Easy—lf You Know Dr.
Edwards' Olive Tablets
The secret of keeping young 5s to
feel young—to do this you must watch
your liver and bowels—there's no need
Of having a sallow complexion—dark
rings under your eyes—pimples—a bil
ious Ipok in your face—dull eyes with
po sparkle. Your doctor will tell you
hinety_ per_ cent of all sickness comes
from inactive bowels and liver.
Dr. Edwards, a well-known physician
in Ohio, perfected a vegetable com
pound mixed with olive oil to act on
the liver and bowels, which he gave to
his patients for years.
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets, the sub
stitute for calomel, are gentle in their
action, yet always effective. They bring
about that exuberance of spirit, that
natural buoyancy which should be en
joyed by every jne, by toning up the liver
and clearing the system of impurities.
You will know Dr. Edwards' Olive
Tablets by their olive color. 10c and
25c per box. All druggists.

In New Play ful present-day authors,
contribute their joint ef
forts toward making "The Old Folks at
Home," the new Trinngle feature to be
sen at the Colonial Theater to-day and
to-morrow, one of the finest that was
ever released on the Triangle program.
The powerful story of this new feature
deals with John Coburn and his wife,
who have become comfortably old and
gray in their simple farm life. Reward
comes to the old farmer In the form
of a State Senatorship. This, in the end,
means breaking up of the old home.
The son. Steve, goes to the city, leav
ing behind his country sweetheart, and
later falls Into the hands of an adven
turess. Ducinda Mendia, who plavs with
tho affections of the boy. which later
leads to his killing another man In de
fense of her. How he is saved from
paving the penalty for his crime by his
aged father and mother, gives the Il
lustrious English actor an opportunity
for some powerful acting. A new two-
Street Car Versus Jitney
OR
The Corporation Against the People
If the people of the city want the Jitney, they have a right to have its
The amended Jitney Ordinance stands for SAFETY FIRST and aims to encourage
tition between the jitney and the street car.
The Harrisburg Railways Company has a perpetual franchise, giving it the right to run its
cars on our streets forever.
We can have no other street railway to compete with it, therefore, without the jitney com
petition, we are largely at its mercy. i
The "cut-throat" bond designed, in the interest of the Railways Company, to kill off jitney
traffic, is to be abolished by the amended ordinance and a payment of five dollars each month
to the City Treasurer as a forfeit, is to be substituted.
The money so deposited with the Treasurer is to be returned to the jitneyman when it
pleases him to quit operations, provided he has kept himself free from responsibility for damage
to person or property.
We believe that this method will be far more effective against accident than even a "cut
throat" bond where the responsibility does not rest on the owner, or lessee, driving the machine.
The sum in the hands of the Treasurer would be as a bank account and it is the nature of us to
protect our savings with all possible vigilance. • >
Under the "cut-throat" bond plan, it appears that the expense is about two hundred dollars
a year for each jitney, if the jitney operator is not wealthy enough to put. up his own $2,000
security. To purchase a bond, therefore, means that, at" least, five thousand passengers must
be carried, before earnings begin. Isn't it reasonable to assume that a burden of about two hun
dred and fifty dollars, on the jitneyman, encourages rapid traveling and danger, instead of
lessening it?
We contend that the present system is excellent from the standpoint of the Railways
Company, but unfair to the public; that it increases liability to accident rather than lessens iF;
that, by endeavoring to prevent the evolution of city passenger traffic, it is foolish as well as
unprogressive and, as its main purpose, seeks to keep the people's nickels dropping into the
coffers of the Railways Company.
THE OLD EMPLOYES OF THE RAILWAYS COMPANY, WHO WILL RUN TIT
NEYS, IF THE NEW ORDINANCE PASSES, PROPOSE TO FORM A MUTUAL IN
DEMNITY FUND, FROM WHICH THEY CAN PAY FOR ANY DAMAGE TO PERSON
OR PROPERTY, AS PROMPTLY AND GENEROUSLY AS THE HARRISBURG RAIL
WAYS COMPANY. IT CAN, TOO, IF REQUIRED, PAY A PERCENTAGE OF ITS
EARNINGS TO THE CITY.
