Joy-Days to the boy
or girl whose body is prop
erly nourished with foods
that are rich in muscle -
making, brain-building ele
ments that are easily digest
gested. Youngsters fed on

buoyancy that belong to
youth. The ideal food for
growing children because it
contains all the material
needed for building muscle,
bone and brain, prepared in
a digestible form. One or

Wants to Hire Team to
Drive Over to Buffalo, N. Y.
When a slim, well-dressed, gray
haired feminine passenger stepped
from a fast Chicago train In Union
station this morning and calmly and
carefully filled her arms with a half
% dozen small traveling bags, travelers
and attaches in tho waltingrooms
puzzled a good deal as to the whys and
wherefores of the transient. Fellow
passengers said she came all the way
from Chicago.
When she boarded a Cumberland
Valley train about 9:30, the station '
and trainshed employes wondered
some more; at New Kingston station
ehe got oft the train and set a few sta
tion hangers-on and the station agent
all agape when she coolly asked if she
could get a team to drive her "over to
Buffalo, New York."

OVERLAND*
HAVE GREAT TIME
Forget Dull Care and Every
body Turns Good
Fellow '
By ANTON BENSON
■Aboard Overland Pullman Special,
Dec. s.—From the time the Overland
Special pulled into Harrisburg from
Philadelphia to take on the delegation
of sixty from the Overland-liarrisburg
Company the trip was one continuous
round of sociability and hilarity. Hard
headed business men who couldn't be
induced to crack a smile while draw
ing the line to business principles on
a close deal threw all formality to the
winds and were jolly good fellows and
as full of life and pranks as schoolboys
at recess. The Philadelphia delegation
| was accompanied by a band and with
: P. S. Smith as cheer leader proceeded
| to give the Harrisburg crowd a warm
i welcome. At every station 'where
j the train stopped the Overland bunch
let the Irfhabltants of the place know
that a live bunch of fellows were go
ing through.
Carl Hanson and J. R. W. Hunter,
better known as "Doc," were ably
assisted by R. C. Barrett, A. N. Straub,
E. E. Barner and H. B. Burns in en
; tertaining the representatives from the
I Harrisburg district. Three special
' Pullmans were provided for the com
! fort of the Harisburg representatives
] and guests.
The cuisine was up to the highest
standard and refreshments without
: stint were provided and every con
sideration for making the trip a mem
orable one was arranged for.
In a crowd of this kind there are
always a few whose sense of humor
I is above the average and whoso spirit
of fun provides amusement for the
( more observant and sedate ones. Chief
; among these in the Harrisburg dele
gation was Sam Russel, of Lewistown,
who needed no megaphone to an
' nounce his presence. He was perfectly
able to speak for himself and his
klaxon was in good working order.
Ably assisted by John Sweeney, the
two bankers with their round-faced
! smiles radiated cheerfulness in what
ever corner their presence became evi
j dent. "Rill Fetter," of Carlisle, was
there with the hot air which makes
the motor cars sell in that territory,
and "Manny" Westhnfer. of Meclian
j icsburg, was one of the smallest in
I size but very much in evidence from
j one end of the train to the other.
1 Ream, of Palmyra, says It takes twenty
i quires to make a ream, and judging
: from the number of stories he can tell,
j it would take about that many quires
| to record all he told to entertain the
t crowd. When a peal of laughter would
j ring out more heartily and louder than
all the others it was a foregone con
• elusion that C. T. Romberger, of Eliz-
I abethvllle, was an appreciative listener.
P. S. Smith, who is zone manager
: for the Willys-Overland in the East,
| including all districts between Johns
town and Norfolk, Va., was in charge
of the train and the captains in charge
| of the Philadelphia cars were H. H.
Beeman, R. Greenwood. Basil Thurin,
! H. S. James and T. Holden, and S. E.
| Fenstermacher, of Rerwick, was In
| charge of the delegation from the
Wilkes-Barre district, and J. L. Ben
der with his crowd got on at Altoona,
Upon arriving at Toledo at 7 this
morningUhe train was parked in the
factory yard near the new adminis
tration building, one of the finest office
structures in the country. The recep
tion committee from the Willys-Over
land factory then escorted the dele
gations from the various trains to the
new restaurant for ' breakfast, after
which the schedule of entertainment
and sightseeing of the first day began.
William Clay Arrested
For Annoying Children
' Charged with annoying small school
'children, in the vicinity of Kelker and
; Green streets, by indecent suggestions,
William Clay, 1727 Green street, was
arrested this afternoon by officer Fet

i After frightening 11-year-old Clara
| Siegel, a daughter of George Siegel,
'1326 Front street, he was pursued by
; crowd of men in the vicinity and later
I taken to the police station. A number
lof people of the neighborhood have
i signified their willingness to appear
i against him.

May Reach Bethlehem Plan
Through Line From
Lebanon
Lebanon, Pa., Dec. 6. With the
purchase by Charles M. Schwab, for
the Bethlehem Steel Company, of the
Lebanon and Reading plants of the
American Iron & Steel Manufacturing
Company practically assured by the
action to-day of minority stockholders
joining in the negotiationj. Interest
was revived by the proposed extension
of the Pennsylvania Railroad through
tho Lebanon Valley from this city to
Reading.
Tho Pennsylvania has been doing a
big business with the American Com
pany over the lines of the Cornwall &
Lebanon Company, a subsidiary, con
necting with the main line ut Cone
wago, 22 miles below this city.
Seeks Bethlehem Une
With the acquisition by the Beth
lehem Company of the American
plants here and at Reading in addi
tion to that of the Lebanon twin fur
naces and control of the Cornwall ore
mines, it is now considered practically
certain that the Pennsylvania Com
pany will seek entrance to the big
South Bethlehem plants and will also
provide an Eastern outlet from this
city by building the 28-mile line from
this city to Reading, connecting there
with its Schuylkill Valley line. At
present the C. A L. Railroad extends
well beyond the city's eastern limits.
Orders For 56,530 Cars
Placed by U. S. Railroads,
New Record, Last Month
New York, Dec. 6. American rail
roads placed orders in November for
the construction of 56,530 freight cars,
representing an expenditure of about
J83,000,000, which established a new
record, according to statistics publish
ed here to-day by the Journal of Com
merce. Never before have freight car
orders In any single month exceeded
25,000 cars.
The November orders, together with
those in about 50 per
cent, of the entire business for the
first eleven months of 1916 and are at
tributable to the pressing need for
equipment to handle the enlarged
traffic arising out of the transporta
tion of commoditites to seaports for
exportation to Europe. Another
thousand freight cars were purchased
in the United Btates by foreign Inter
ests at an approximate cost of $1,500-
000.
Domestic roads ordered 342 and
foreign buyers 633 locomotives and
American roads bought 491 passenger
cars, and these, together with the
freight cars ordered and 737,000 tons
of rails bought, brought the total cost
of railroad equipment purchased dur
ing November up to $155,551,000, ac
cording to the statistics.

HARRISBURG t£iTELEGRAPH DECEMBER 6, 1916.
CAR SHORTAGE
CUTS EARNINGS
October Reports Show Gain in
Revenue Even With
Handicaps
New York, Dec. 6. How big a
[ factor the continued acute car short
i age situation is in the matter of rail
i road gross earnings is Indicated in the
| reports of the railroads for October to
1 the Interstate Commerce Commission,
in conjunction with the last bulletin
of the American Railway Association.
Up to the present 109 railroads oper
ating 148,769 miles of road, or con
siderably over half the railway mile
age of the country have reported
earnings for Octooer of $223,838,073,
a gain of $24,625,759 over October,
1915, or roughly 12.4 per cent.
Shortage Causes Doorcase
That this gain would have been
greuter is indicated by the fact that
jon October 1 last there was a net
[shortage of 60,697 cars, whereas on
| October 1, 1915, there were actually
78,341 idle cars.
Net earnings of these railroads for
! October amounted to $84,862,891 or
| $8,379,728 more than in the previous
October, a gain of 12 per cent. This
gain in net revenues was made pos
, siblc by a pretty close handling of
operating expenses. The latter, total
ing $138,975,182 for the month, were
; $15,246,031, or 12.2 per cent, greater.
| But this increase in operating ex
! penses absorbed only about 62 per
i cent, of the gain in gross earnings.

Better Do Your Mailing
Early to Boys on Border
If the boys at the border are to have
a real Christmas, the folks at home will
have to adopt the slogan. "Do your
Christmas shopping early."
Parcel post mailing clerks and ex
press men report some early mailings
but as four days is the least possible
time for a package to reach the border
but very little time is left until the big
day.
In some nearby towns bazars are
being held to raise funds to buy pres
ents wholesale for their troopers.
Sisters and sweethearts have been
spending months making dainty littlo
articles, not exactly necessary in the
kit of a 'man at arms' but very, very
Indispensable as a tangible means of
calling visions of some fair face, when
scented with a subtle bit of May or
Marjorie's favorite "Mary Garden" or
, "DJerkiss."
Mothers are busy making Christmas
cakes that are all too often received
at the border badly dried and broken
but still they are being baked just the
same.
Old 'pals' of the home guardß are
sending cigars, clgarets and tobacco
for after all that is one of the most
acceptable gifts that can bo sent as good
'makins' are scarce along the border
and who would ever get enough of the
weed anyhow?
BOYS' nRIGADE TO MEET
New Cumberland, Pa., Dec. 6.—On

Medicine
WAS ALL TIRED OUT
"I haven't felt as good as I do now
in at least four years," enthusiastic
ally exclaims Mrs. Ellen Peters, who
lives at 27 South Court St., Harris
burg, Pa.
"I've been a hard worker all my
life," she continues, "and I got pretty
much run down before I began to sit
up and take notice of my condition.
My stomach was all out of kelter so
that I suffered a lot after my meals;
my liver was lazy, and gave me a lot
of backaches and I got so I didn't
sleep a bit good but would wake up
in the morning feeling as if every
bone in my body was aching with a
different kind of an ache."
"I had a bit of rheumatics, too,
and I'd find my hands ail puffed up."
"Be that as it may I got to taking
Tanlac after hearing so much about
It, and blessed be, it sure has done
fine for me for I'm feeling simply ele
gant now, thanks to it.
"All my aches and pains have gone;
my stomach is good as it ever was and

SAGE laws
GRAY f R DARK
It's Grandmother's Recipe to
Bring Back Color and
Lustre to Hair.
That beautiful, even shade of dark,
glossy hair can only be had by brew
ing a mixture of Sage Tea and Sul
phur. Your hair is your charm. It
makes or mars the face. When it
fades, turns gray or streaked, just an
application or two of Sage and Sul
phur enhances its appearance a hun
dredfold.
Don't bother to prepare the mix
ture, you can get this famous old
recipe improved by the addition of
other ingredients for 50 cents a large
bottle, all ready for use. It is called
Wyetli's Sage and Sulphur Compound.
This can always be depended upon to
bring back the natural color and lustre
of your hair.
Everybody uses "Wyeth's" Sage and
Sulphur Compound now because It
darkens so naturally (ind evenly that
nobody can tell it has been applied.
You simply dampen a sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this through
the hair, taking one small strand at a
time; by morning the gray hair has
disappeared, and after another ap
plication it becomes beautifully dark
and appears glossy and lustrous. This
ready-to-use preparation is a delight
ful toilet requisite for those who de
sire dark hair and a youthful appear
ance. It Is not Intended for tho cure,
mitigation or prevention of disease.
SAKS BODY IS A
POISON FACTORY
Urges everyone to drink glass of
hot water before
breakfast
Just as coal, when it burns, leaves
behind a certain amount of incom
bustible material in the form of ashes,
so the food and drink taken day after
day leaves in the -alimentary canal a
certain amount of Indigestible ma
terial, which If not completely elimin
ated from the system each day, be
comes food for the millions of bacteria
which infest the bowels. From this
mass of left-over waste, toxins and
ptomaln-llke poisons are formed and
sucked into the blood.
Men and women who can't get feel
ing right must begin to take inside
baths. Before eating breakfast each
morning drink a glass of real hot
water with a teaspoonful of lime
stone phosphate In it to wash out of
the thirty l'eet of bowels the previous
day's accumulation of poisons and
toxins and to keep the entiro alimen
tary canal clean, pure and fresh.
Those who are subject to sick head
ache, colds, biliousness, constipation,
others who wake up with bad taste,
foul breath, backache, rheumatic stiff
ness, or have a sour gassy stomach
after meals, are urged to get a quarter
pound of limestone phosphate from
the drug store, and begin practicing
internal sanitation. This will cost
very little, but 1. sufficient' to make
anyone an enthusiast on the subject.
Remember inside bathing is more
Important than outside bathing, be
cause the skin pores do not absorb im
purities into the blood, causing poor
health, while the bowel pores do.
Just as soap and hot water cleanses,
sweetens and freshens the skin, so
hot water and limestone phosphate act
on the stomach, liver, kidneys and
bowVls.—Advertisement.
