QUICK RELIEF FROM CONSTIPATION Get Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets That is the joyful cry of thousands since Dr. Edwards produced Olive Tab lets, the substitute for calomel. Dr._ Edwards, a practicing physician for 17 years and calomel's old-time en emy, discovered the formula for Olive Tablets while treating patients for chronic constipation and torpid livers. Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets do not contain calomel, but a healing, sooth ing vegetable laxative. No griping is the "keynote" of these little sugar-coated, olive-colored tablets. They cause the bowels and liver to act normally. They never force them to unnatural action. If you have a "dark brown mouth" now and then—a bad breath—a dull, tired feeling—'sick headache torpid liver and are constipated, you'll find quick, sure and only pleasant results from one or two little Dr, Edwards' Olive Tablets at bedtime. Thousands take one or two '■very night just to keep right. Try them. 10c and 25c per box. All druggists. LITTLE LILLIAN ROMAINE FISHER CAN TALK AGAIN V / \ i This attractive little lady Is the two year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. 0. M. Fisher, 2:;S North St., Harris burg, Pa. Last winter she had an at tack of measles. t'>rtber with a very severe cold. Ji;st at thai time Drug gist S. J. Wllhelni presented Mr. Fisher with a jar of the Southern "outside" treatment —Vick's Vapoßub Salve, which was just then being in troduced in Harrisburg, and requested ] that he give this preparation a thor- \ ough trial. Mr. Fisher writes— "l must say that our baby had ' such a cold on her chest and in her throat that she could hardly talk, and we could not get her to take anything internally. After we used Vick's Vapoßub Salve on her breast and throat at night before going to bed she was entirely relieved." No family should be without thia preparation. It is externally applied, and so can be used freely—it is ab sorbed through and penetrates the skin, and. in addition, is inhaled as a vapor.

Telegraph Boy Returns With Governor's Troop ® - w y <L j -W& |\x I TROOPER "WTD" DWYER One of the youngest members of the Governor's Troop is William F. Dwyer. He is better known as "Wfd." Before his enlistment he was em ployed in the composing room of the Harrisburg Telegraph. He was given a warm welcome by his former as sociates. Speaking about military service, Trooper Dwyer, said: "It is great to be a soldier and I would not have missed the military training for any price. It has been a great thing for me. While glad to get home. 1 will be ready for the next call to duty." 10,000 CHEER TROOP HOME FROM BORDER [Continued From First Page] lice were called to prevent further in cidents of the kind.

They should be known as the Ancient and Honorable Order of Oloom Chasers. Thomases who doubt this should attend either a luncheon at the Columbus some Monday or one of the regular meetings of the well-known Rotarians. Gloom is always beyond the horizon for the Rotarians. I got this straight when 1 attended the Ro tary Club meeting last night out at Sam Eby's bag and box factory. Ver non near Seventeenth. It was my first Rotary meeting, but it won't be my last. These Rotarians, you know, meet around at each other's place of busi ness. They get an eye-full of the other fellow's methods of conducting his business, for Instance, Eby put his ] whole force on last night for an hour, paying time and half for overtime, just to show the Rotarians the system employed in his factory—a system, by the way, that resulted In such excel lent boxes that all poor Sam could sell last year was 5,000 shy of 2.000,000! ] The Rotarians were so interested In the whole works that such well-known i men as Ed. Black. John Musser. C. M. Forney, W. M. Robinson and P. B. Edelen just couldn't stay away from the machines—and they took great pleasure in helping the young ladies make boxes. "Say. Myrt." said one of the girls after Ed. Black had finished "helping" her, "I wonder if that guy knows that I'm on piecework? I lost a nickel while he was doing the 'gallant-jump- | man' act." When the Rotarians entered the; factory Sam Eby and an assistant pre sented them with paper hats, made on the bag machinery. Captain Dumb, of the State police, and President Howard J C. Fry, of the Rotarians, presented the ! most statuesque appearance, although j "Doc" Shope and Carey, the typewriter man, looked like French ccoks, too— ! not forgetting, either.

To prevent accidents, the pa trolmen were obliged to admit only members of the immediate families of the troopers. The reception accorded the Gov ernor's Troop will be long remem bered. The plans of the Harrisburg Chamber of Commerce committee by as large numbers as would have been had it been a daylight welcome, but they were all in line. Committee Welcomes I .ads The reception committee met at the Pennsylvania Railroad station and were escorted to track No. 6. on which the troop train arrived, by Captain Paul L. Barclay, of the Pennsylvania Kailroad police department. The troopers lined up on the platform and were later escorted to Fifth and Mar ket streets, where they met the recep tion parade. In the meantime Captain George C. Jack, in command of the Governor's Troop, who has been home on a fur lough. as chief marshal formed the line of procession to West State street. With the following formation the pa rade moved to Market street and awaited the arrival of the troop: Chief marshal. Captain George C. J&ok Chief of staff, Francis H.

Roberts in Command The Governor's Troop, in command of lieutenant George W. H. Roberts, escorted by the reception committee, held the extreme left of the line. The route was slightly changed and was as follows: Up Market street to Market Square, to Second street, to North, to Fourth, | to State, where the paraders opened order to allow the troopers to inarch through to the armory on State street near Fourth. In armory hall, to which no person was admitted but the cav alrymen and reception committee, the soldiers formed a hollow square. There were no speeches. Following orders to remove belts and carbines, the troopers were given a brief respite, during which the members of the com mittee welcomed each soldier person ally. Lieutenant Roberts subsequently or dered a detail to go to the stockyards and assits in unloading the horses. An other detail was sent to the Pennsyl vania Railroad station to look after the troop property. The other troop ers were then given an opportunity to meet their friends and the rush was on. Ninety-two Men Return The Governor's Troop .returned to Harrisburg with, ninety-two men. One trooper, Frank Weber, who resides on Regina street, was taken sick en route. I He is threatened with pneumonia, i Walter F. Stroup, 1343 Howard street, ! who is better known as "Nick" Stroup, ! was left behind with a broken hip. ' He was thrown from his horse last ! July.

"Ruddy" Spicer, the double-jit. The Rev. Dr. James Bullitt, endearingly known to the Ro tarians as "Ol" Jim Bullitt," came } through very nicely with "Episcopal clergyman." Fry's ears were bad— his auricular appendages suffered a temporary stoppage, one might say, when "Doc" Kann said that he was "treating patients." "What's that?" says Fry. "Bleed , ing patients!" A coal man present facetiously re marked that ho "sold slate." An un dertaker declared earnestly that he "followed doctors." The vodevil dur ing this five-minute session was big time stufT—not three-a-day. After a while Fry called on folks to I tell why they used Sam Eby's boxes; I and they told why. When Eby had finished telling about his business the president announced [ that ten modest and retiring Rotarians I would be Introduced. He bawled them out—l mean called them out—front J and made them get back of a black I screen, through which a head-hole was cut. "Now. boys," said Fry, "my one re quest is that you throw nothing at I these fellows that will injure them | permanently." Ol' Captain Lumb went back of the J screen with the ten modest and retir ing ones. Howard Fry was the an ! nounoer. And as he announced each of the modest ones, with the lights in ! the room all out. he flashed a search- I light on the face that poked through j the hole. Then Captain Lumb read a i speech the modest one might have ! made had he thought of it. They were | all funny. After the speeches the ten | were supplied with tin fifes and played j afew variations on the overture from the Chinese opera, "Fo Young Dan." i As an encore they gave the intermezzo : from another Chinese classic, "Ah Yah i Sin. Yak Ah Main." These were touch ; ing. bringing the tears to the eyes of i the Rotarians.

While traveling over a Texas line the engineer allowed the water gauge on his engine to freeze up. lie had 180 : pounds of steam, according to the i steam gauge, but no water, and was ! obliged to draw his tire to prevent an explosion. The engineer walked three miles to a tower to get another en gine. l'irst Snow 1 The first snow was seen at Little Rock, Ark. From that point until ! Harrisburg was reached the snow and cold weather increased. At Pittsburgh , yesterday the troopers had a good time while the horses were being watered. They did not go to bed last niKht, pre . ferring to remain up until the train reached Harrisburg. En route they were given rations, i While glad to get home, every mem ber of the Governor's Troop expressed , gratification over the opportunity to acquire real military training. Most of the troopers said their desire to set home was because there was little to do except routine work at El Paso. They had many pleasant hours not withstanding the strict discipline of army life. Assemble at 2 To-day The troopers were dismissed until this afternoon at 2 o'clock, when rations were again served. They will remain within close call until mus tered out. It is probable the Wur De partment will send an army mustering officer to Harrisburg before the close of the week. The troopers brought home two mascots. One was the black Pome ranian presented to Captain George C. Jack by Mrs. Charles F. Kyder. of the Harrisburg Division, Women's National Preparedness league. Trooper Frank Kline was in charge of this pet, which was sick only four days at El Paso. The other mascot was a white shep ! herd dog which came to the Gov- I ernor's Troop headquarters several ] months ago and made friends with I Johnny Shade, the cook. He assumed | ownership and is still in possession of I the deer. •Tolinny Shade Great Cook Members of the Governor's Troop had a whole lot of good things to say j for Johnny Shade, their cook. He en listed as a regular trooper, but later when it was learned that he knew! something about cooking, he was! given charge of the kitchen. Trooper i Shade's cookinpr was "just like moth- i er's." He never had a kick during! the six months' service. Cook Shade was always making something new and palatable for the , soldiers. He baked pies and cookies, and roasted chicken and turkey. En route East from Pittsburgh Trooper Shade who was in charge of the kitchen car baked pies and gave the troopers a treat. Philadelphia Troops Pass Through ! Four troops enroute to Philadelphia | passed through Harrisburg last niKht. I The first section reached Harrisburg |at C:4O, and left soon after. During ! the short stop-over here many friends | of the Philadelphia troopers extend ed a welcome to them at the Penn sylvania Railroad Station. The second troop train came as far as Rockville and was then diverted north. On this train were the Lewis burg, Sunbury and Lock Haven troops. This section was one hour back of the Philadelphia train. State Care For the Abnormal Children Plans for the presentation to the ; | Legislature of a measure for a State! commission to make a study of the : !abnormal children of the State and' 'suggest ways and means to deal with : them were discussed at length by Gov- I ernoi Brumbaugh and representatives' iof various organizations Interested in! Ithe care of children at a conference iheld in the Capito lto-day. The Gov-' .ernor in the course of an address said 1 I that the school code took care of the | normal children and that some steps /should be taken for the less fortunate. | A committee was named with J. 8. ; Ileberling, of Redington. as .chair iman to co-operate with Bromley Wharton, secretary of the State Board of Public Charities, and Dr. J. George Becht. secretary of the State Board of Education, In framing legislation D. E. Tracy, of this city, is a member. John Yates, of the Associated Chari ties, took part in the discussions. RETURN CARS TO FOREIGN ROADS Shortagc Is on Decrease; Equip ment in Yards Await Repairs Daily inventories are being taken by the Pennsylvania Railroad of alt foreign cars in this vicinity. The purpose is to return all <sars as soon as possible. The car shortage is showing a slight decrease, Local rail road officials, while still experiencing some trouble in getting cars, are of the opinion that the shortage will soon be at an end. In the effort to co-operate with other railroads the Pennsylvania Railroad is sending an average of 500 cars daily. In addition to cutting down the shortage, the company saves 75 cents per day, for each car, for holding foreign equipment and also keeps the freight crews busy, as traffic at pres ent is not very heavy. There are still a number of idle oars in the Harrisburg, Knola and Marysvillo yards. Most of them be long to other railroads. The large majority of cars in the yards, it is said are waiting for repairs. DISCUSS RAILROAD REGULATION'S New York. Jan. 17. The powers, functions and duties of the Interstate Commerce Commission should be carefully reconsidered in the light of world experience In organisation. Frederic A. Delano, member of the Federal Reserve Board and a former railroad president, declared in a' speech here to-night at the annual dinner of the Railway Business Asso ciation. Mr. Delano held that it "may be found advisable to authorize the com mission to delegate some of its ad ministrative and executive functions as they are now delegated in all suc cessful corporate enterprises." E. B. THOMAS RE-ELECTED Philadelphia, Jan. 17. Despite ru mors that he would resign. E. B. Thomas, president of the Lehigh Val ley railroad, was unanimously re elected at the annual meeting of stock -1 holders, held yesterday at the com pany's offices in this mity. Mr. Thomas has been president of the road since 1902. No mention was made of his possible resignation yesterday. Only a bare handful of stockhold ers was present. Stock to the extent of 817,600 shares was voted out of a total of 1.210,034 shares outstanding. The annual report for the fiscal year i ended June 30, 1916, was not read, this ! statement having been officially pub lished last August. RAILROAD NOTES Heavy freight tonnage is again re ported on the Reading. The recent severe spell of winter weather has put a crimp in work on the new Pennsylvania railroad station, and the Cumberland Valley railroad bridge. Track hands are out daily on all di visions of the Pennsylvania railroad watching switches. They freeze up frequently. The basketball team of the Schuyl kill Valley division of the Pennsylva nia railroad will play Altoona tossers to-morrow night. Last week the Read ing team defeated the local five. The Pennsylvania railroad is build ing a new track from Pomeroy to Coatesviile for the accommodation of the Lukens Steel and Iron Company and Worth Brothers. Howard Mengel has been appointed station agent for the Philadelphia and Reading railway at Steelton. He suc ceeds George Levan deceased. The Lehigh Valley railroad reports a mileage of 1,442 and a total of 44,- 974 cars in service. The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company has asked the Interstate Commerce Commission to allow them a two and a half cents per mile rate in West Virginia.

PARDON BOARD TO SUMMON DOCTORS [Continued From First Page] ognize every effort to continue a case Its list would be littered with applica tions from one year's end to another. Counsel for Nelson, who was con victed at Tunkhannock of causing the death of a fan named Sigler by stab wounds, in October. 1915, declared i that he had been informed a few days ago by Dr. O. C. Thofson, of Scranton, ' a surgeon, who had made an autopsy that the dead fan had died because a portion of his intestines had been al lowed to protrude in dressing the case. This doctor had visited the man shortly after the stabbing and had found his condition so favorable for recovery, he said, that he had not taken off the bandages. When the man died an autopsy was held at which it was alleged that a condition evidencing lack of careful treatment was discovered. District Attorney Surprised District Attorney Parr, of Wyoming 1 county, said that he believed the man died from wounds about the heart and commented upon the fact that Dr. Thompson did not appear at the trial, which was held almost a year ago. The Lieutenant Governor said that in cases of reasonable doubt the Board desired to give the heneilt of investi gation and directed the doctors to ap- 1 pear and attorneys to use their utmost I endeavors to get at the facts. Nelson is sentenced to be electro cuted in the week of Januarv 29 but will be respited. It is possible that his case may also be taken to the Su- | preme Court in an effort to obtain a j new trial. The proceedings in the case were as unusual as the plea made for a con- ' tinuance. Never before in the history r of the Board has such a claim been | made as that the doctors failed to take proper care of a wound. And never before has the Board summoned men to appear before it as witnesses. Nelson's case is one of national im portance. He stabbed Sigler appar- j ently without much reason and re- 1 fused to give his name, keeping every- I one in doubt for days as to his identity. Ministers and others have become in terested in him and the case attracted wide attention when tried. Now the question of professional ethics Tias been brought in. It is said that Dr. Thompson communicated has findings to authorities and even to the Attor ney General, but that counsel for the condemned man never knew of the vital report until Sunday. Dr. Thomp sol* .' s Ba ''l to be desired to make a 1 privileged communication, but the exigencies of the case will force him to make a statement about another doctor's care of the case. Cattery's Case Heard Application for commutation of the death sentence of Patrick Callers', Northampton, on the ground of insan ity was made in the presence of the condemned man's sister and opposed by District Attorney F. B. McCloskey who stated that he appeared by direc tion of Judge Stewart, of the North ampton courts. Callery was declared by his counsel to have been pro nounced insane by five doctors, but the State objected to the plea holding that lii actions were not those of an tsane man, hut of one addicted to ex cessive drinking. Callery was de elared to have run amuck with a re and to have shot four persons, killing one and to have opened fire on policemen when they tried to arrest him. So much time taken up with the homicide oases that lieutenant Governor MeClain limited arguments in others to fifteen minutes each. TEUTON DRIVEIs HALTED BY RUSS [Continued From First I'age] ! recently delivered, according to news agency advices from Athens. Teutons Are Stopped in Rumania For First Time Since Mid-November i London, Jan. IT.—lt is remarked here I that the Teutonic allies now, for the j first time since mid-November are fail - ling to make advances in Kumania and I that the offensive for the moment at least seems to have passed to the Rus | sians and Rumanians. Information Is lacking as regards the cause for tlie slowing up of the move ment. Some reports say the Russo- I Rumanians have received large rein forcements and guns and munitions, but elsewhere the question is asked whether the situation is not due to the winter in Northern Rumania, which is as severe as that in miu-Kussia. The Morning Post's Petrograd corres pondent says the opinion prevails there that the Russian stroke in the direction of Mitau had a disconcerting effect on the German arrangements which has been heightened by the increased activ ity of the Russians on the various other sections of the northern front. The cor respondent says the German lines are thinly held everywhere except in Ru mania, and the Germans consequently are showing nervousness over the re cent Russian moves.
