CHILD GETS SICK,
CROSS FEVERISH
IF CONSTIPATED
Look at tongue! Then give fruit
laxative for stomach,
liver, bowels.
, i
"California Syrup of Figs ' can t
harm children and
they love it.
Mother! Your child isn't naturally |
cross and peevish. See if tongue is
coated; this is a sure sign the little
stomach, liver and bowels need a
cleansing at once.
When listless, pale, feverish, full of
cold, breath bad, throat sore, doesn't :
cat, sleep or act naturally, has stom- I
ach-ache, diarrhoea, remember, a j
eentle liver and bowel cleansing!
.should always be the first treatment i
given.
Nothing equals "California Syrup of j
figs" for children's ills; give a tea-j
spoonful, and in a few hours all the '
foul waste, sour bile and fermenting
food which is clogged in the bowels ;
passes out of the system, and you have.!
a well and playful child again. All j
children love this harmless, delicious
"truit laxative." and it never fails to j
effect a good "inside" cleansing. Dl- i
rections for babies, children of ail i
ages and grown-ups arc plainly on
th<> bottle.
Keep it liar.dy in your home. A
Jittie given to-day saves a sick child j
to-morrow, but get the genuine. Ask j
j our druggist for a 50-eent bottle of:
"California Syrup of Figs," then see j
that it is made by the "California Fig !
Svrun I'ouipany."
I SAYS HOT WATER !
WASHES POISONS ]
FROM THE LIVER j
1 Everyone should drink hot water •
with phosphate In It,
before breakfast.
To feel as fine as the proverbial
iic'dle, we must keep the liver washed !
clean, almost every morning", to pre- i
vent its sponge-like pores from clog- !
King with indigestible material, sour
bile and prisonous toxins, says a noted
physician.
If you get headaches, it's your liver.
If you catch cold easily, it's your liver.
If you wake up with a bad taste, fur
red tongue, nasty breath or stomach
become rancid, it's your liver. Sallow
skin, muddy complexion, watery eyes
all denote liver uncleanliness. Your
liver is the most important, also the
much abused and neglected organ of
the body. Few know Its funcUon or
how to release the dammed-up body
waste, bile and toxins. Most folks
resort to violent calomel, which is a
dangerous, salivating chemical which
can only be used occasionally because
it accumulates in the tissues, %lso at
tacks the bones.
Every man and woman, sick or J
well, should drink each morning be-1
fore breakfast, a glass of hot water!
with ■ teaspoonful of limestone phos
phate in it. to wash from the liver and
bowels the previous day's indigestible i
material, the poisons, sour bile and
toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening
and freshening the entire alimentary I
canal before putting more food into
the stomach.
Limestone phosphate does not re- I
strict the diet like calomel, because it!
can not salivate, for it is harmless and
you can eat anything afterwards. It
is inexpensive and almost tasteless,
and any pharmacist will sell you a
quarter pound, which is sufficient for
n demonstration of how hot water and
limestone phosphate cleans, stimu
lates and freshens the liver, keeping
you feeling fit day in and day out.

MONDAY EVENING,
ARMY BLANKETS
AND HOSPITALS
Dr. Dixon Gives Some Pointers
in Regard to Their Use
For Indoors
I Just because tl.e United States
i army blankets are good is no reason
why they are fitted tor everything
\ declares I>r. Samuel G. IMxon, the
State Commissioner of Health. Dr.
Dixon gives these views on the sub
| jeot:
United States army blankets are not
economical for private or permanent
hospital use. For the reader to fully
appreciate this criticism he must dis
abuse him mind of a common fallacy
that the purpose of blankets and cloth
inn is to give heat off to the body.
Blankets and clothing only retain the
heat of the body by preventing it from
being taken off by the general atmos
phere. Therefore, you want blankets
soft and pliable so that they will fall
of their own weight and tit snugly to
the body, so as to prevent the air from
circulating between the blanket and
the body.
The army blanket is woven so closely
and becomes so rigid when thrown over
the body that it fails to fall In close,
but stands out and permits an air space
between itself and the body. This In
terferes with its heat-retaining quali
ties to the extent that after practical
application in our large hospitals in
the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania we
tind in the cold high mountain regions
we can get along with three softer
woven blankets instead of having to
use live army blankets.
With this discovery and practical ap
plication we not only save much money
in maintaining our hospitals, but we
give our patients more comfort. The
blankets are warmer and at the same
time are lighter in weight.
The army blanket was made original
ly so that it would bo strong ami could
be used in active campaigns, where it
had to be carried on the soldiers' backs,
or on saddles of horses, or in the sup
ply wagon. Owing to the fact that they
were made of all wool, had long lives,
and were made in a substantial way,
they soon found their way Into gen
eral use. particularly into hospital use.
and more especially into hospitals
where the open air treatment was nec
essary.
The State Department of Health of
Pennsylvania has its blankets made ac
cording to the following specifications:
Double blankets to be not less than
50 inches long by not less than 60
inches wide when finished. Weight to
be 4'j pounds per pair when finished.
Warp—To to of cotton, long staple.
To be well carded and evenly spun,
of No. H yarn. 43 threads to the inch.
Killing—To be blend or mixture or
not over "0 per c-en,t. cotton. Balance
to be pure wool, staple good and true,
51 picks to the inch in finished pro
duct. Color to be medium gray.
Border—No border.
Binding—Bach pair of blankets to
be bound on the ends with a 2-inch
gray mohair binding. To have two
rows of stitching 1-4 inch apart and to
count about si.v stitches per inch.
Embroidering—Hach pair of blankets
to be embroidered with the letters P. S.
C. S. 4 inches high. To be in center
of blanket.
Note—A blanket showing the general
design and construction is on file in
the Philadelphia office.
Court Decree Gives Farmer
Right to Kill Deer When
They Destroy His Crops
'Chambersburg, Fa.. Feb. 5.: —In the
court of quarter sessions of Franklin
county held here to-day Judge W.
Rush Gillan handed down a decree
that gives the right to a farmer to kill
wild deer at any time when on his
land destroying his crops.
Some time ago the State brought
suit against Eenjamin F. Carbaugh.
whose farm adjoins the Caledonia
game reservation, for having killed a
female deer out of season. Carbaugh
said the animal killed belonged to a
large herd that were eating off his
growing what, entailing a heavy ttaaan
ciul loss to him and sustenance for his
family. Carbaugh was lined and also
had to pay the costs. The matter was
taken into court by an appeal, the
parties agreed on the facts and asked
the court to determine as a matter of
law whether or not such conviction
was proper.
GARDNER OF MASSACHUSETTS
He became State senator and mem
ber of the Republican State Central
committee and congressman: and he
stuck to being congressman so indus
triously that now out of 435 members
of the House of Representatives, only
34 exceed him in length of service,
and he is second ranking Republican
member of the one and only Ways
and Means Committee; and his superb
vigor of body and of mind, combined
with his seniority, makes it inevitable
now that he will be one of the chief
poliUcal figures of the United States
whenever Congress is next captured
by the Republican party; and, instead
of being a reactionary congressman,
he is, in all matters of social legisla
tion, a really very good labor con
gressman. . . .
I sum him up:- Augustus Peabody
Gardner, hard-headed, hard-hitting
man, woh secirpinetaoindloeunetanu
man, whose principal occupation is
daring the electorate of the Sixth Mas
sachusetts to catch him napping and
fire him, but whose mere self-respect
and native courage are constantly get
tinfl him into lights, whereupon he
fires all guns—l2-inch and spit—tiil
the decks are awash and would rather
go down to the strains of "This Is the
End of a Perfect Day" than "My
Country. 'Tis of Thee" for fear some
body might think Augustus Peabody
Gardner was thinking himself noble
about it. —By William Hard, In Col

Father, Held For Murder,
Wants Epileptic Child
Sent to State Hospital
Harry G. Miller, of near Hummels
town, charged with the murder of his
21year-old son. Clayton, several weeks
[ ago, petitioned the Dauphin county
| court through his attorney, William
; H. Earnest, to have Esther May Miller,
| a 9-year-old daughter sent to the
* Eastern Pennsylvan.a •State Institu
tion for Feeble-Minded and Epileptic
j Children. The petition will be heard
! March 5.
Miller, with his wife, each are held
under SI,OOO bail for March sessions
of Criminal Court. Friends of the
family, including County Commission
ers C. C. Cunibler and Henry M: Stine,
furnished bail. The Millers are al
leged to_ have starved, their son to
death arid were released under bay
after habeas corpus proceedings were
instituted.
PALM BEACH
Like all places in which idlers try
to avoid finding out that they are idle,
Palm Beach has very definite customs
as to where to go and at what time to
go there. Excepting in its hours for
going to bed and getting up, it runs on
schedule. The official day begins with
the bathing hour—ll.3o to 12.30
when the two or three thousand people
from the pair of vast hotels assemble
before the casino on the beach. Golf
ers will, of course, be upon the links
before this hour; fishermen will be
casting from the pier or will be out in
hoats searching the sailflsh —that be
ing the "fashionable" fish at the pres
ent time; ladies of excessive circub
ference wHI be panting rapidly along
the wuli.their eyes holding that look
of dreamy determination which paint
ers put into the eyes of martyrs, and
which a fixed intention to lose twenty
pounds puts into the eyes of banting
women. So. too, certain gentlemen of
swarthy skin make their way to the
casino sun parlor, where they disrobe
and bake until the bathing hour. The
object of this practice is to acquire, as
nearly as a white man may, the com
plexion of a mulatto, and it is surpris
ing to sec how nearly the skins of
some more ardent members of the
i "Browning Club." as this group Is
called, match those of their chair
boys. The underlying theory of the
"Browning Club" is that a triple-plated
cOat of tan. taken north"in March, ad
vertises the wearer as having been at
Palm Beach the entire winter, thus
establishing him as a man not merely
of means, but of great endurance.—

New Earning Record on
Pennsylvania Railroad;
December Is Slow Month
Both gross and net earnings of the
Pennsylvania Railroad system lor
1916 were the largest tor any single
.•ear In the long history of the com
pany. The gross revenues of lines
east and west for the year ran up to
a total of $441,010,41 •, an increase of
$69,267,973, or 18.6 per cent, over
1915. The net earnings were $109,-
342,005, a gain of $'.'0,999,265, or 23.7
per cent, over 1915.

AI'CJISTI'S I-EABODY GARDNER
In the battle of politics Gardner
takes off the politician's armor of
hypocrisy
He began his historic attack on the
unpreparedncss ol' the United States
by rising in the, House and saying:
"For a dozen'years I have sat hero
like a coward and I have listened to
men say that in time of war we could
depend lor our defense on the Na
tional Guard, and I have known all
the time that it was not so. 1 am a
former militiaman myself."
"The truth is that each one of us
is afraid that the National Guard in
his district would say: 'Why, that
man Gardner says 1 am no good. 1
will teach him.' "
"So I have been afraid, all these !
dozen years, to turn around and say!
to the National Guard in my district: i
"We cannot depend on the greater 1
part of the National Guard to do ef
fective service in time of war against
really trained troops.' In all the dozen
years I have known that fact, till this
minute. I have not said so."

OVERWORKED MINISTER
Tells How Vinol Restored
Strength and Vitality.
Harrisburg people will realize that
i we could not publish such letters as
the following if they were not genu
j ine and truthful statements of facts.
! The Rev. Mr. Hughes, Holly Springs,
j Ark., says:
"I am a Methodist Minister, and
| suffered from broken-down nerves,
j loss of appetite and sleeplessness. I
j was weak, my circulation was very
poor, and I was not able to do my
duty in my Parish as I felt I should.
I had tried various remedies but did
not seem to get any better. Through
Mr. Gatlin of Bearden, Ark., I learn
[ed of Vinol, and it built me up. I
| regained my appetite, can sleep better
j and do more work."
| There is no secret about Vinol, it
I derives its power to build up the over
. worked, brokendown, nervous system
from beef and cod liver peptones, iron
and manganese peptonates, and glyc
erophosphates, etc., which it contains.
Anyone in Harrisburg who wishes
to try Vinol can do so with the under
standing that we will return their
money if they are not satisfied.
