"I had a breath that smelt like something the cat dragged in; I had no appetite, I didn't sleep good and I was always tired and had no am bition." "But to look at me now you wouldn't think I was the same fellow that was dragging himself around so miserable just a few weeks ago. And Tanlac fixed me up. I read in the paper about its curing a man of ca tarrh and I said to myself "I'll try it" and. by gollies, it has done the trick. ""I feel better in every way than I have for years. I feel great, my ap petite has come back strong; my ca tarrh has quit bothering me and I sleep like a log; just tumble into bed and pound my ear until getting up time and in the morning I'm up fresh as a lark and ready for work."

Their biggest task is in preventing conges tion in Rutherford yards. Lack of track facilities and motive power have been factors in recent traffic tie-ups. Work is advancing rapidly on the fourteen new tracks and it is said they will soon be available for service. New freight engines are arriving almost weekly, but even at that there has been a scarcity of motive power. Record I'rclgtit Business Freight business at present is ex | ceeding all expectations.

TO THRESH OUT JITNEY RULES [Continued From First Page] The Planning Commission has report ed adversely on the proposed change of line. The Mayor's ordinance authorizing the appointment of a city mechani cian to look after all the motorcars In the city departments at a salary of $1,200 was amended so as to change jurisdiction of that official from the department of parks to the depart ment of public safety. This was con sidered advisable because Commis sioner H. F. Bowman can find a suit able place for the new official's shop. A new ordinance was offered by Mr. Lynch authorizing the laying of sew ers In Jefferson, Mahantongo and Geary streets, and Mr. Gorgas offered a resolution directing the sinking fund commissioners to invest $60,000 of the water department surplus in the proposed new fire bond Issue. Approve Contracts Contracts were approved as follows: For grading Twenty-seventh street. Derry to Greenwood, to Stucker Brothers, $449; Susquehanna, Emer ald to Seneca, Murphy & Sons, $1,140; Johnson & Lyme, water pipe In Swa tara, Twenty-flrst to Twenty-second street. $379.50. Mayor Meals offered an ordinance authorizing a $lO a month raise In salary for the employes of the police department from captain down to messenger and janitor. Under the new ordinance the salaries—if the or dinance passes—will be $1,520 annu ally for the police captain, fj.,140 for the sergeants, $1,020 for the police men, patrol and ambulance chauffeurs and S9OO for the messenger and Jani tor, or a little more than $126 per month for the captain, $95 per month for the sergeants, SBS for the patrol men and chauffeurs and $75 for the messenger and Janitor. These salaries according to the ordinance go into effect January 1, High Coot of Living Mayor Meals said the "higher cost of uniforms alone would be sufficient to warrant the Increase If no other reason was advanced." Incidentally Council delayed action again on Mayor Meals' ordinance au thorizing the appointment of thirty additional policemen. Council gener ally speaking doesn't favor so big an increase in the force although it is generally expected that several new officers will be allowed in the budget for the new year.

Lynch sub mitted his report on tho inspection of sewers to-day, too, and this will be considered at the conference. Accord ing to Mr. Lynch's figures, the city will have to pay approximately SIO,BOO for the sewer system and the extension of the river front interceptor from Division street northward, a distance of approximately 2,800 feet, will cost $13,000, so that for the sewer system alone Harrisburg would have to lay out about $24,000 to $25,000. The cost of furnishing water, light, paving, etc., has not yet been gone into. Basing the returns in taxation to the city on the submitted valuation of $665,920 at 9V& mills, the commis sioners figure that Harrisburg should net, roughly speaking, about $6,326.
