WEDNESDAY EVENING. HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH FEBRUARY 14, 1917.
including men who had voted yester
day.
The Senate resolution for investiga
tion of government in Pennsylvania,
which was laid before the House at
11:30 a. m., was supported by Repre
sentative Sarig, Berks, the Democratic:
member who endeavored to amend it
yesterday, so that the inquiry would
be made by a commission of eminent
citizens. Mr. Sarig said haif an inves
tigation such as he believed would re
sult. was better than none.
The Berks member said the situa
tion among the Republicans reminded
him of two of his pupils who had
called each other liars and whom he
thought were in danger of qualifying
to become political leaders. The con
ditions charged, said he. were the re
sult of the system created in Pennsyl
vania by politics. He asserted that
the Republicans of Pennsylvania had
built up the greatest political machine
on the American continent, so power
ful, he said, that he wondered that
there was a Democratic legislator on
Capitol Hill.
Mr. Milner, Philadelphia, said the
resolution sought to accomplish no
good end and that it had been forced
down the throats of the legislators
until they were ready to gag and the
people back home are equally sick of
[it. The resolution, he said, was an in
dictment that named no one and pro
vided for "a packed jury," something
I repugnant to the Anglo-Saxon sense
I of justice.
I Mr. Snyder, Westmoreland, de
nounced the resolution as unfair and
[said it had nauseated the people of
I Pennsylvania.

STOCK DEALINGS
LIGHT AND NARROW
Declines Range From 1 to 3 Points on Shippings, Bethle
hem Steel, Petroleum, Baldwin, Locomo
tive and Industrials
New York, Feb. 14. Dealings at
the outset of to-day's session were
light and narrow with a preuonder
ance of declines. These ranged from
one to three points in shippings, Beth
lehem Steel, Mexican Petroleum, Bald
win Locomotive, Studebaker and Ohio
Gas with fractional reversals in Great
Northern Ore, American Steel Foun
dries and other specialties. United
States Steel opened at a slight reces
sion. but moderate pressure soon ef
fected a greater loss. Nominal gains
were registered by Central
American Sugar, Continental Can and
Pittsburgh Coal. Canadian Pacific was
heaviest of the rails, yielding almost
two points.
The market became increasingly apa
thetic during the forenoon with partial
recoveries from early irregularity, ex
cept in specific instances. Sugar issues
reflected latest conditions in Cuba, a
six-point drop in Cuban-American
Sugar being offset by a twelve-point
gain in South Porto Rico Sugar, pre
sumably on the theiry that the latter
might benefit by the disadvantages of
the former. Rails failed to follow up
their improvement of the previous day,
a four-poin decline in Delaware and
Hudson and a new minimum for New
Haven at 38 Vi being among the chief
incidents of that division. A new low
quotation of 90for Anglo-French s's
featured the nominal bond market.

CUTAWAY HEO
CHASSIS ATTRACTS
The Automobile Show is one place in
the world where one may expect to see
unique demonstrations, and the local
show is in no way an exception. One
of the most striking exhibits of this
year's show is the electrically illumin
ated cut-away Reo chassis exhibited by
the Harrisburg Auto Company, of
which George G. McFarland is general
manager. Every working part of the
entire mechanism is cut away to show
what takes place in the mysterious in
terior of an automobile. The crank case
is glass enclosed to sow the movement
of the crank shaft and pistons. The
transmision and differential housings
are cut away to show the movement of
the various gears. The workings of the
clutch and even the magneto bare their
secrets to the interest crowd that seems
to constantly throng about the ex
hibit. Small electric bulbs show the
action of the spark plugs and the mo-
I tor fan makes intermitent flashes of
vari-colored lights as its whirls mer
ril yon.
In keeping with the present-day
trend towards permanent top cars, the
Harrisburg Auto Company is showing
two Sedan Touring cars (four and six
rvlinder) that are genuinely new.
Heavy nlate-glass pannels in the sides
are easily dropped out of sight, giving
the Heo owner the luxury of the open
touring car when the season of the year
demands. A four and six-cylinder road
ster and a four and six-cylinder seven
passenger touring car complete the
Reo exhibit.

vigorous after everything else had
failed to help me, and I can now do
my housework with pleasure."—Mrs.

| It Works'. Try It
Tells how to loosen a sore, |
tender corn so It lifts j
out without pain.
Good news spreads rapidly and drug
gists here are kept busy dispensing
freezone, the ether discovery of a Cin
cinnati man, which is said to loosen
any corn so it lifts out with the
lingers.
Ask at any pharmacy for a quarter
ounce of freezone, which will cost very
little, but is said to be sufficient to
rid one's feet of every hard or soft
corn or callus.
You apply just a few drops on the
tender, aching corn and instantly the
soreness is relieved, and soon the
corn is so shriveled that it lifts out
without pain. It is a sticky substance
which dries when applied and never
I inflames or even irritates the adjoin
ing tissue.
This discovery will prevent thou
sands of deaths annually from lock
jaw and infection heretofore resulting
from the suicidal habit of cutting
corns.
