MORE RHEUMATISM
THAN EVER BEFORE
Clergymen, Jxiwycrs, Brokers, Me- j
clianles and Merchants Stricken
Our old friend Rheumatiz is having
his inning this year, and a few words
of caution from one who knows all
about It may not bo amiss.
Wear rubbers in damp weather;
keep your feet dry; drink plenty of
lemonade, and avoid strong alcoholic
drinks.
If rheumatism gets you, or sciatica,
end you have sharp twinges, gnawing
pain or swollen joints or muscles, you
can get rid of all agony in just a few
days by taking one-half teaspoonful of
Rheuma once a day.
All druggists know about Rheuma:
it's harmless, yet powerful; cheap, yet
sure, and a 50-cent bottle will last a
long time. Ask 11. C. Kennedy, or any
druggist.—adv.
ASTHMA
Simple Harmless Remedy Brings I
Quick Relief. Makes Breathing |
Easy
Many cases of immediate relief and
rapid recovery from Bronchial Asth
ma of long standing are being credited
to a discovery made by Dr. Eugene
Howard of Worcester, Mass. Dr.
Howard's prescription is called Oxi
daze and comes in the form of a tab
let which tho patient allows to dis
solve slowly in tho mouth. Its cura
tive, healing juices thus mingle with
the saliva and open up the air pas
sages and regulate the spasmodic lung
action. These tablets, though pleas
ant to the taste, are so powerful and
rapid that many users who for years
were obliged to sit up in bed gasping
for breath and unable to sleep report
that, they now put a single Oxidaze
tablet In their mouth when going to
bed and can then lie down and breathe
easily and naturally and get a good
night's restful sleep. George A. Gor
ga3 and many other local druggists
handle Oxidaze tablets on the positive
guarantee of money back if it does not
give immediate relief.—Adv.

VARE DRUG BILL
IS DRASTIC PLAN
Would Put an End to the In
discriminate Use of Various
Preparations
Provisions of a bill introduced by
Senator Edwin H. Varo, to-day make It
an offense, punishable by not more
than $2,000 fine, or more than five
years' imprisonment or both, for any
person, other than any authorized phy
sician, dentist, veterinarian or licensed
dealer to receive, have in his posses
sion, sell, control, distribute or give
away any opium, cocoa leaves or any
compound thereof "except under the
advice and direction and with the con
sent of a regularly practicing and duly
licensed physician or dentist."
The bill prohibits the administra
tion of the said drugs "to or for the
use of a habitual or constant user of
any of the said drugs—for the purpose
of treating or curing of said person of
said addiction or habit or for the pur
pose of satisfying the craving of said
person of said drugs, outside of a hos
pital, sanatorium, medical or public
institution to which said person is con
fined." To receive any drugs in vio
lation of this provision is also an of
fense.
This provisio ills aimed at the pos
sible practice of an addict or habitual
user of the drugs visiting several phy
sicians and receiving a prescription
from each for a quantity of drugs to
be administered without observation
or supervision. The burden of prov
ing "any exemption under the act
shall be upon the defendant."
Physicians, dentists or veterinarians
can only administer or prescribe drugs
after a physical examination of the
person or animal to be treated or pre
scribed for; and such physician or
denUst may prescribe for or furnish
to any habitual user of such drugs;
"substances as said physician or den
tist may deem necessary for Ills treat
ment, when such administering or fur
nishing or prescribing is not done for
the purpose of evading the provisions
of this act."
All prescriptions shall be dated as to
the date on which signed, shall be
stamped with the date upon which it
is filled, shall not be filled but once
and not more than two days from date
thereof. It must be retained 'jy the
person selling or dispensing the ar
ticle for two years in such a way that
It will be readily accessible to inspec
tion by the proper authorities.
"Any license heretofore issued to
any physician, dentist, veterinarian,
pharmacist or registered nurse, may be
revoked by the proper ottlcers or
boards, having power to issue licenses
to any of the foregoing, upon proof
that the licensee is addicted to the use
of any such drug" or "whenever any
physician, etc., is convicted in a court
having Jurisdiction of any of the vio
lations of this act."
In placing the burden of proof upon
the defendant the act provides that "in
any prosecution under this act it shall
not be necessary to negative any of
the exemptions of act in any com
plaint, information or indictmeut."
The act will take effect sixty days af
ter the dae of final passage.
Senator Yare declared that it is his
purpose to rid the State of Pennsylva
nia of the "dope" evil. "The most
harmful habit practiced in this coun
try to-day Is the dope habit, and it is
my desire to see it wiped out in the
State of Pennsylvania," he declared.
"The bill I introduced this morning is
drafted for that purpose and I believe
that it will serve to do that very thing.
"Personally I know of several cases
where opium and other drugs have
ruined the lives of promising young
men. Hundreds of others have been
brought to my attention. The bill
was prepared along lines which will
leave no chance for the offending per
son, whether it be the physician, drug
gist. nurse or consumer to dodge or
circumvent its provisions or escape its
penalty. And it should be so."
BILLS OF SALE TO
GO WITH VEHICLES
Measure Designed to Break Up
the Practice of Selling
Stolen Cars
A bill designed to make traffic in
stolen automobiles an impossibility
I was introduced in the House last night
I by Representative Michael Smith Ben
nett, of Philadelphia. The method
provided by the law is to require a bill
I of sale to accompany every automobile
sold and the bill of sale must be the
original paper from the manufacturer
of the machine or his agent.
The measure provides that every
manufacturer, dealer and individual
! on the consummation of the sale of
any automobile within the Common-
I wealth shall deliver to the purchaser
| of such motor vehicle a bill of sale and
I in case of any resale of such motor
vehicle all prior bills of sale shall be
delievered to the last purchaser. Kach
bill of sale from vendor to vendee shall
contain therein a notation of any
changes which may have "been made
on said motor vehicle while the ven
dor had title thereto. It shall be the
duty of each person purchasing a
motor vehicle to demand from the
vendor a bill of sale for such vehicle
and all other bills of sale in the
hands of the vendor showing the title
to such motor vehicle from the time
it left the hands of the manufacturer.
Any vendor who shall on the eon
summation of any sale of a motor ve
hicle within the Commonwealth, fall
to deliver tto the vendee the bill or bills
of sale as provided, and such automo
bile shall subsequently be proven to
have been stolen shall be guilty of a
misdemeanor and upon conviction
shall be liable to a line of not more
than SSOO or imprisonment in the
county Jail not exceeding six months.
The same penalty applies in the case
of any buyer of an auto prpven to
have been stolen who Is unable to
produce a bill or bills of sale.
TRAINS KEEP TO LEFT
Paris, March 13.—The appearance
on French railways of considerable
quantities of English rolling stock has
called attention to a curious survival
on the French railways which Indi
cates their English origin. Contrary
to the French rule of the road, which
is "Keep to the right" trains in France
have always kept to the left, as In
England. The pioneers of French rail
ways were Englishmen, and nearly all
the locomotive engineers were for
many years brought from England.
These men followed the rules of tho
road which they had learned at home,
and passed them on to their French
successors.

BALDWIN WANTS
MEMBERS TO WORK
Speaker Says That He Will
Enforce the Rule Against
Absence if Necessary
Speaker Richard J. Baldwin, of the
State House of Representatives, is
now requesting that the members of
tho House give all their attention to
legislative matters and that the com
mittees get down to hard work and
dispose of the mass of bills accumu
lated during the weeks of the session
that have gone into history. The
Speaker also is asking that a full at
tendance t>f all members be seen from
now on and in short is outlining a
program to the members that can not
fail to bring results that are benc
cial to the public.
Referring to the great mass of the
citizenship, the Speaker Ib reiterating
his former utterances concerning in
creased appropriations for the schools
of the State and especially the schools
in the sparsely settled communities
where it Is a hardship to keep them
up. He Is strongly In favor of the
school appropriation item and also
for good roads and anything that will
have a direct and beneficial bearing
on the good roads proposition in
Pennsylvania. Having made a study
of State questions and the financial
aspect of government, the Speaker
thinks that there are several millions
of dollars used in the State that could
be diverted to more v resstn ß and
appealing projects than for which the
money is expended now but a direct
statement from him on this question
will hardly be forthcoming until later
in the session.
With the subject of general legis
lation the first proposition that will
claim general attention in the near
future is the Vickerman Local Option
bill which will be given a public liear
y
To Avoid Dandruff
.
You do not., want a slow treatment
for itching scalp when hair is failing
and the dandruff germ is killing the
hair roots. Delay means—no hair.
Get, at any drug store, a bottle of
zemo for 25c or SI.OO for extra large
size. Use as directed, for it does the
work quickly. It kills the dandruff
germ, nourishes the hair roots and im
mediately stops itching scalp. It is
a pure, reliable, antiseptic liquid, ss not
greasy, is easy to use and will not stain.
Soaps and shampoos are harmful, as
they contain alkali. The best thing to
use for scalp irritations is zemo, for It
is safe and also inexpensive.

ing before the House law and order
committee on March 21. The bill has
been in the Legislature for several
weeks and a hearing was requested
by Representative John W. Vlckcr
man, of Allegheny county and State
Insurance Commissioner J. Denny
O'Neil. For some time it looked as
if a determined effort was being made
to deny a hearing but wiser heads on
the liquor side of the Legislature pre
vailed and the date was set. It will
be a hearing like others in other ses
sions and will merely provide a meth
od by which the pros and cons on the
liquor question will be heard. Repre
sentative William C. Wagner, of Alle
gheny county, is chairman of the
House committee. There will be a
large attendance at the hearing and
the opponents of the measure will be
out in force. Hotels are already book
ing reservations. Many Philadelphia
and Pittsburgh liquor men are com
ing here and the Local Option League,
of which Commissioner O'Neil is
State president, will also have mem

FOOD CARDS VALUABLE
Berlin, March 13.—The food card
system in Germany, however much of
a nuisance it may be for the house
wives, has materially aided the police
and military authorities in one respect.
It has Just occurred agifin—a thing
that had often occurred before—that
a man wanted In connection with a
crime surrendered himself to the po
lice because he had found it impos
sible to get enough to eat without a
set of cards, and these ho could not
obtain without registering himself at
the police station of his precinct. I
