TRADING NOT AFFECTED j
New York, Nov. 28. The warning '
of the Federal Reserve Board in the I
matter of English treasury bills was
apparently without influence on trading
at the opening of the Stock Exchange
to-day. In no important instance were
stocks lower than a fraction, while
some, including representative rails,
were actually higher. Dealings were
moderate and without unsettlement In
any quarter.

Free Eye Examination In Disfavor .
Optometrists who are graduates of reputable schools and col
leges, regard ' Free" examinations of the eyes with disfavor Op
tometrists generally—and especially those who place their pro
fession on a high and conscientious plane, do not care to em
ploy methods that are regarded with suspicion by a very large
proportion of the public. Personally I prefer a clear and satis
factory understanding to begin with. I make a nominal charge
of $1 for an examination—and I have a fixed schedule of prices
for glasses. Ido not offer to do something for nothing to put
you under obligations, neither do I overcharge you in any way
If you should need glasses I venture to say that my charge for
both glasses and examination will be considerably less than the !
optometrist who makes "Free" examinations would charge for
glasses alone. Furthermore X know you will be better satisfied, I
because no element of doubt can arise in your mind either in
glasses correctness of my examination or the value of the

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
of beef and other meats and about the
same amount of butter in storage as in
the week before last Thanksgiving, ac
cording to the statisticians of the
l State's Department of Agriculture. The
amount of poultry is also less by many
. thousands of pounds.
■ There are fully 3,000,000 dozens of
I eggs in cold storage warehouses In
Philadelphia which will have to come
out of the warehouses before the
, Christmas holidays if they are to be
' sold in Pennsylvania, while in Alle
gheny county warehouses there are
probably 2,000,000 dozens which must
also come out In December. There are
less than 6,000,000 dozen eggs in stor
age In the whole State.
The stock of eggs in storage in Phlla
i delphia has been reduced 50 per cent.
since the report made on October 1 to
1 the State by the cold storage people.
1 This was the last report made and since
that time there have been immense,
withdrawals and the eggs are coming
out of storage earlier, It is said at the
Capitol.
It was denied at the Department of
Agriculture that there was any short
age in potatoes. Farmers aire said to
. be holding back for better prices, but
the crop Is not much short of what it
was last year. However, when Central
Pennsylvania farmers are getting $1.75
a bushel it is admittedly a temptation
to hold back.
No investigation of the egg or potato
or general food situation in the State
is contemplated by the Dairy and Food
Commissioner's office and no cold stor
age men have been here trying to head
It off.
PHONOGRAPH RECORDS ARE
PLAYED AUTOMATICALLY
Application for patent rights has
been made by an eastern Inventor who
has designed a phonograph that Is
capable of playing several disk rec
ords in succession without requiring
the attention of an operator. The
machine also will select special rec
ords and render them, or reproduce
'a single one as many times as ' de
sired. Another feature of the appa-
ratus is that records of different
sizes with starting and ending grooves
of various diameters can be employ
ed. Small regulating knobs permit
an operator to omit, repeat, or stop
the rendition of any particular selec-
J tton. Furthermore, it is possible to
set the machine to stop automatically
after playing any record. The in
strument is described in the December
Popular Mechanics Magazine.

A Sure Way to
End Dandruff
There Is one sure way that has never
railed to remove dandruff at once, and
that is to dissolve It, then you destroy
it entirely. To do this, Just get about
lour 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 hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glos
sy, silky and soft, and look and feel aj
hundred times better. —Advertisement,

WHAT "MOTHER"
REALLY MEANS
|ln the Trenches One Gets the
Real Impression of the Sol
dier's Home-Love
By DOROTHY DIX
Very many years ago a man with
a brain of a phtlospher and the soul
of a poet said, "I care not who makes
the laws of a people. If I may make
their songs."
The passing of time has changed
i many things, but it has not changed
I that eternal truth. It Is not the dry
as-dust laws that mould the character
of a people and determine their actions
at the critical moments. It Is the songs
they sing.
It Is "God Save the King," that
brings every Englishman, the world
over, to his feet, with a thrill of pride
of country and of race running like
wine through his veins. It is the "Mar
seillaise" that sends the Frenchman
out to glory or the grave. It Is the
stately swing of "Die Wacht am Rhine"
to which the German soldier marches
forward to lay down his life for the
Fatherland.
And the simpler songs— "The songs
that gush from the heart, like rain
from the clouds In summer, or tears
from the eyelids start," as Longfellow
beautifully puts—who can measure
their power? Who knows how often
they are like the angel's wing that
reaches down and stirs the dark pools
of some lost soul and turns Its waters
sweet again?
Who can guess how many a time the
words of an old hymn, sung by a care
less voice In the street has stayed the
feet of wayward men and women In the
downward path? Who can even Im
agine how many wanderers have turned
back. like the prodigal of old, to their
father's house because another wander
er wrote "Home, Sweet Home"?
Among our most precious possessions
are these simple songs, the songs
whose appeal Is to our hearts, and that
make us better men and women every
time we sing them, every time we hear
them. And to this rosary of songs a
new bead has just been added in a
little ballad called "Mother. It's just
a musical trifle with a haunting tune
to it, and some simple words that tell
what our mothers mean to us.
Most ;if us are self-conscious and
shy and deadly afraid of sentiment,
and not good at putting our feelings
Into words anyway, but all the same
we have our ideal of what is good and
true, and noble and beautiful, and its
name is "Mother."
That's why we all, as well as we can,
hum,' or whistle, or sing, spelling out
with the hero of the song:
"M is for the million things she gave
me,
O means only that she's growing old;
T is for the tears she shed to save me,
H is for her heart of purest gold;
E Is for her eyes with lovellght shin
ing,
R means right, and right she'll always
be.
Put them all together they spell
MOTHER, a word that means the
world to me."
The "Mother" song has taken the
town. They are singing it on the
stage; they are playing it in the cab
arets; youths and maidens are warb
ling; it In the parlors; people are whist
ling 1 It in the street. It is the hymn
of love, the hymn of gratitude and
appreciation, and no one hears It but
has for the moment, at least, a little
choking remembrance of a mother ,and
a mother's selfish love and devotion.
And somehow, when you see a song
like this sweep the country—a song
that is pure and good, and whose ap
peal is to what is best and tenderest
in us. It warms your faith to human
nature.
It shows, after all, that the salacious
minded are few in this country at least
and the sound-hearted many, for a
thousand ribald songs will die of In
sanitatlon among the handful of de
cadents who care for such unsavory
morsels, while a sweet and clean and
| wholesome ballad, such as "Mother" is
becomes a full-throated chorus from
the multitude .
Publishers and theatrical managers
are always telling us that the greatest
gamble on earth is gambling on public
taste, because no one can tell what Is
going to lilt the public fancy. Per
haps the reason of this is because
they have not sensed the fact that the
one J>est bet is that the public always
likes the genuine thing. the moral
thing, the thing that teaches us a good
lesson and inspires noble sentiment.
It Is plays like "Rip Van Winkle,"
and the "Old Homestead." and "Shore
Acres," and "Hazel Kirk" and "The
Poor Relation' that people flock to
see year after year, while off-colored
problem plays and sex dramas, and
malodorous French farces are put on
the stage, fail, are taken off, and for
gotten.
And it's the Home Sweet Home songs
and the M-o-t-h-e-r songs that plumb
down into the wells of sentiment
"where the living waters are," the songs
that sweep the heart strings, the songs
full of truth and tenderness that lift
us up above the sordidness of every
day life that will always be the pop
ular songs in American homes.
Well may the wise man of old have
said, "let me write the songs of a

VALUABLE PRODUCTS
FROM CHKRRY PITS
Sixteen hundred tons of cherry pits,
now a source of annoyance and ex
pense to canneries, can be made to
yield two valuable oils and also a meal
for feeding cattle, according to spe
cialists of the U. S. Department of
Agriculture. In addition the 105,000
gallons of cherry juice now wasted
in seeding cherries can be turned into
desirable jelly and syrup, or even into
alcohol, says the Popular Science
Monthly for December. A saving ol
these valuable by-products from
cherry canning may make possible the
domestic manufacture of substitutes
for almond oil and bitter almond oil,
now imported, and at the same time
establish a new industry in the cherry
packing districts of the North At.
lantic. North Central, and Western
States.
