Moyer that he has a check for IS refund to the county, county commissioners to-day said that handing back the money would not be considered an answer to their request of last month, asking Taylor to appear before them. Nothing will be done, it was said to-day, until the jury commissioners appear before the commissioners.

"Ginger" has become a synonym for m warm, fervent, energetic, enthusias tic, cheerful frame of mind. When one is in such spirit, obstacles have no terrors, and success, with fame and fortune, presents opportunities which the gloomy, despondent, unhappy man fails to see or grasp. To have "lots of ginger," your sys tem must supply your nerves' with all the elements of nutrition to make them strong and vital, so that the mind or spirit also can be sustained by nervous force. No one can be happy with a toothache, yet a toothache la juat a Buffering nerre. Doesn't that prove that the nerves control the pleasures and hnpplneaa of your exist ence? Starred nerrea result In many Ill nesses, mnch gloom and little pleaaure for the possessor. When there are starved nerves, there ta no "ginger," no "pep," no Are, no warmth, no vitality or magnetism. If you lack In •'ginger," If you lack In "pep," there's a reason, and the reason Is your nervea are being deprived of nutritive elements. What will correct this deplorable condition, you ask? Cadomene Tablets is the answer, because they are designed for that partlcalar pur pose—A powerful, vitalizing tonic of purest kind known to medico I experts—containing no narcotlca or drug that can weaken—bnt only such as will strengthen and vitalise FRIDAY EVENING, HXKRISBURG TELEGRAPH FEBRUARY 23, 1917 i gAMHSE^MENTsg ORPHEI'M To-night "The Other Man's Wife." ; Saturday, matinee and night, February Monday and Tuesday nights, February 26-27—"The People." 24—"The Girl Who Smiles."

The play is pro duced under the direction of Madame Yorska, and the stage settings were painted by Joseph Urban. While the action of the play pases in an unnamed country the message and purpose of the piece is one which should appeal with particular force to Americans to-day, as the spirit of patriotism which runs through the entire work is certain to find a readv response.

Another fast favorite on the bill is the American Comedy Four, a quartet of male singers, who furnish excelent har mony. They are clever comedians as well and yesterday's audiences just couldn't get enough of their comedy.

The landscape may be gray with snow or bleak with leafless trees that stand outlined against a slate-colored sky. The wind may have a Hop upon its Fast One attached to the sting of a virile young hornet. It may be snowing or blowing, or both. Theso things have nothing whatso ever to do with the case. For spring has came. It arrived with the announcement that sundry ball clubs were mobilizing and pointing in the general direction of the pink-tinted South— In Dixie land to take their stand And slam the pill to beat the band, To loosen up long-frosted wings With inlield pegs and outfield flings, Where "Coming Cobbs" are after jobs And budding stars are thick, But where, by May, they fade away To let the Old Boys stick. In Dixie land they're praised and panned, And some are held and some are canned. Where agile scribes evolve new curves With phantom dips and mystic swerves, Where one and all land on the ball And play a jam-up game. But where, by June, in Saskatoon They've faded from the frame. With major league ball clubs headed South, spring can he officially written across the face of the calendar. These lines are its official heralds—"Mar quard takes it easy, but says the old arm feels great"; "Rixey expects to pitch the game of his life"; "Eddie Collins faster than ever around the old bag"; "Dave Robertson faster than ever before." Advance Dope Advance dope, with its usual elasticity, is already beginning to swarm across the borders of the sporting page. In the National League It is now a question of "Who'll beat out the Giants." In the American League the main query is. "Can the Red Sox get by again?" McGraw not. only has the strongest ball club on paper. Last fall, in the live closing weeks, he had by all odds the strongest ball club on the field. Until the collapse came at the finish he had a club able to run rough shod over all opposition—the main answer being twenty-six straight. The main tangle is that last May the Giants won seventeen straight on the road and then flopped from within a game of the peak to sixth place. They were the most erratic ball club that ever took the field. In two forced marches they put away forty-three victories without n defeat—and then couldn't finish any better than fourth. They ought to win—but there's a bale of temperament at tached to the club and temperament is always beyond the border of the dope. But temperament also means human interest, at times, and the Giants, win or lose, are going to be almost as Interesting a machine as the old Cubs. The Red Sox Outlook The Red Sox began their campaign of frightfulness in 1912. They skidded in 1913 and 1914, but in 1915 and 'l6 they returned again with both barrels loaded. The one chance for them to be stopped is a physical decay that was not apparent to fhe naked orb last year. With Speaker sold before the season opened, with Joe Wood missing, with Shor md Leonard in poor early season form, with Jack Barry hors du second base on through the stretch—they cut their way to the peak and remained there at the' finish. What have the Red Sox got? Nothing but a world of pitching strength, plenty of baseball brains and experience, a good fielding club with a scattering of dangerous hitters and an undue amount of pluck and stamina. That's about all. They have been in three world series within five years and have won all three. Unless Jack Barry falls down as a leader—which he shouldn't do—the Red Sox will be hard to oust. This may be their last big year, for Hooper, Lewis, Hobby, Gardner and Barry, five of their stars, are no longer mere kids. The main answer here will be Ruth, Leonard, Mays and Shore. If these four pitchers are right the greater part of the year, there is undoubtedly enough left in the old machine to win again. The Cubs won four years out of live; the Mackmen also won four out of five starts. A Red Sox victory for 1917 would bring their mark up to four out of six. But the Red Sox face this barrier- —Tigers, Yankees, White Sox Browns and Indians—meaning Detroit, New York. Chicago, St. Louis and Cleveland. AH possess unusual strength. From five strong clubs there Is always the chance that one will get going and pick enough luck to upset the advance debate. The Pro-Season Tip If the two pennant races were to be awarded as the clubs start South, one could figure fairly well that the first world series game would find Messrs. Schupp and Ruth engaged in the opening carnival. The Giants have a better chance to win in the National than the Red Sox have in the American. The Giants have unusual speed and power, and with only average pitching should get back to the perch from which they were finally dislodged four years ago. • There isn't a weak Giant member on the attack. Take a brief peep at the UrnS ' aufr ' Robertson, Herzog, Zimmerman, Fletcher, Every man here can hit tha ball, and at least five of the eight are ex tremely fast. Mixed up with this speed and power is an unusual amount of progressiveness, a certain result of any McGraw-Hereog combination. With this machine under way McGraw only needs average pitching from Schupp Tesreau, Benton. Perritt and the others. Given that, his club will be safety ensconced in the clover before mid-September.

Of course, the quelling of a revolution and the restoration of order is a trifling- task to a young man of Mr. Fairbanks' in tense nature, and the close of the pic ture sees the villains properly foiled and the girl rescued in order that she may wed the athletic hero. "The Americano" is said to furnish five reels of the most strenuous activity that Fairbanks has yet displayed and also to be one of the best pictures, from a dramatic standpoint, in which he has appeared. Francis X. Bushman and Beverly Bayne will be the added at traction, to-day only, in the third epi sode of "The Great Secret," the serial of a million thrills.

For the past year "Civilization" has j been running in New York and Chicago, where it was received with the hearti- ! est acclaim. The scenario of the drama was writ ten by C. Gardner Sullivan. To provide 1 proper music setting for the scenes of [ "Civilization," Victor L.
