At a business meeting of Company A,
Stevens Memorial Guards, the follow
ing civil officers were elected to serve
for the ensuing year: J. Robert Storey,
president; Emery M. Sourbeer, treas
urer, and Harold Hamilton, secretary.
A committee was formed to arrange
by-laws. Owing to the extremely large
number of applicants for membership,
It has been found necessary to form a
third company, this to bo known as
Company C. Walter L. Vnnaman has
been appointed commander-in-chief,
with the rank of uajor.
Company A lias been changed as
follows: Emery M. Sourbeer, captain;
Robert Fohl, first lieutenant, and Ross
Willis, second lieutenant.
Company C will be in charge of
Major Vanaman until officers are elect
ed. The members are enthusiastic
over the new organizations and are
turning out in full numbers. Friday
an open-air drill was held by Com
pany A and if the weather is favorable
the drills will be held in Vernon
street, adjacent tp the church, Mon
day and Friday evenings. It is hoped
to have the commands make their lirst
public appearance as marching organ
izations on Decoration Day. The mem
bership roster is still open and, if
necessary, a fourth company will bo
formed. Company B arranged for a
concert, March 29, for the benefit of
the uniform fund. Company B is the
junior company, composed of boys of
the ages of 10 to 16 years.

RHEUMATISM^
Physician Believes a Genuine Rem
edy For the Disease Hus Been
Found
Rheuma, the wonderful rheumatism
remedy sold by H. C. Kennedy and all
druggists, gives quicker and more last
ing relief than other remedies cost
ing many times as much.
Rheuma passes the deadly poison
ous secretions into the bowels and kid
neys, from which they are quickly
thrown off in a natural, healthy way.
Read what a reputable physician
says about Rheuma: "I have made a
most careful investigation of the for
mula employed in the manufacture of
Rheuma, and 1 heartily recommend
it as a remedy for all forms of rheu
matism. I find Rheunia far in advance
of the methods generally employed in
the treatment of rheumatism, and al
together different in composition from
the remedies usually prescribed."—Dr.
Lyons.
This should give any sufferer from
rheumatism confidence to try Rheuma.

TUESDAY EVENING,
METHODIST CONFERENCE
IS UNDER WAY
[Continued Itom First Page]
Curtin Memorial; the Rev. W. W.
Hartman, Ridge Avenue; the Rev. Dr.
E. A. Pyles, Fifth Street; the Rev. J.
D. W. Deavor, Epworth. Other preach
ers in this section to go are the Rev.
Dr. S. C. Swallow, the Rev. H. W.

Rev. S. B. Bidlack, West Fairvicw.
Laymen Association
The churches do not have lay repre
sentation in the annual conference,
but have bn association of their own,
meeting for a couple of days at the
same place as the conference. The
president of the laymen's organization
this year is J. R. Rote, of this city.
Most of the oflicial boards have Se
lected laymen to represent them in the
Lewistown convention with one or
more men.
Among the men from this section
who have been elected as delegates
are D. W. Cottcrel and John Shilling,
of Camp Curtin Memorial; John N.
Peregoy and Charles Hoffman, Stev
ens Memorial; D. H. Swope, Fifth
Street; John S. Sible and Charles W.
8011, Grace; 1. R. Poffenberger and
Dr. C. M. Ewing, Ridge Avenue, and
R. E. Cahtll and R. E. Irwin, Camp
Hill. Many other well-known Meth
odists of the city are planning to at
tend the conference sessions one or
more days during the week.
The time limit for pastors having
been removed, it is not certain that
there will be any changes in this city
in addition to that of Grace Church,
already announced. The district su
perintendent, the Rev. Dr. A. S. Fasiok,
having completed his six-year term of
office, will be assigned to a church
somewhere in the conference, probably
not in this district. Several men have
been mentioned as Dr. Fasick's suc
cessor, but the preachers of the city
think that the Rev. Dr. Morris E.
Swartz, of First Church, York, is the
most likely man to receive the ap
pointment. A rumor that is very gen
erally heard is that the Rev. Dr. Hor
ace Lincoln Jacobs, formerly pastor of
Ridge Avenue Church, this city, and
for two years past superintendent of
the Williamsport district, has requested
the bishop to relieve him of the dis
trict, Dr. Jacobs preferring the pas
torate or some other district. It is
not known what the bishop's action
on this request will be.
Dr. Jacobs is well known in Har
rlsburg and it is known he would not
be averse to an assignment to this
city. But in a church where every
pastor has a job and where every
church has a preacher, not all prefer
ences of either churches or pastors
can be regarded, and some surprises
are sure to appear when the final ad
justment of the work is made.
Bishop McDowell Presides
The presiding bishop is William F.
McDowell, D. D„ LL. D., of Washing
ton, D. C. Bishop McDowell was as
signed to the Washington area at the
last session of the general conference,
having previously been resident bishop
at. Chicago. He is much in demand
as a lecturer in leading colleges and
universities of the country. Bishop
McDowell presided over the annual
conference sessions of 1907 at Tyrone
and of 1912 at Williamsport.
Examining Applicants
Monday night, to-day and continu
ing into the evening examinations are
being held for the young men passing
through the coference course of study,
each person desiring to become a
member of the conference being re
quired to produce recommendations
from his local church and from the
committee on qualifications. It is fur
ther required that he produce credits
from college and theological school
covering the books listed for confer
-1 ence study during the first four years
of his work in the ministry or else he
must pass written examinations on
the prescribed studies. Twenty min
isters comprise the examining board,
the Rev. Dr. James Henry Morgan,
president of Dickinson College, being
chairman of the board of examiners.
This evening the anniversary of the
conference homo missionary society
will be held. The Rev. John T. Bell,
of Watsontown, presides and addresses
will be delivered by S. W. Dickson, of
Berwick; the Rev. A. S. Williams, of
Harrisburg, and Dr. Pred B. Fisher, of
New York city, whose subject will be
"American Christianity and the New
World Order."

DESPONDENT WOMEN
Constantly recurring suffering gives
! women "the blues." Comparatively
j few women realize that despondency,
I together with backache, headache, and
' that "dragging-down" feeling indicate
J some derangement oC the feminine or
gans, for which Lydia B. Pinkliam'a
Vegetable Compound is a remedy.
It is said that this famous, old root
and herb remedy has been the means
of restoring more women to health and
consequent happiness than any other
remedy In the world.
Don't wait until your life is wreck

PI MEAT WHEN"
KIDNEYS BOTHER
I
I Take a glass of Salts if your
Back hurts or Bladder
troubles you.
No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make a mistake by
flushing the kidneys occasionally,
says a well-known authority. Meat
forms uric acid which excites the
! kidneys, they become overworked from
the strain, got sluggish and fall to
filter the waste and poisons from
the blood, then we get sick. Nearly
all rheumatism, headaches, liver
trouble, nervousness, dizziness, sleep
lessness and urinary disorders come
from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache
in the kidneys or your .back hurts or
If the urine Is cloudy, offensive, full
of sediment, irregular of passage or
attended by a sensation of scalding,
stop eating meat and get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any phar
macy; take a tablespoonful In a glass
of water before breakfast and in a
few days your kidneys will act fine.
This famous salts Is made from the
I acid of grapes and lemon juice, com-
I bined with lithla, and has been used
for generations to flush and stimu
late the kidneys, also to neutralize
the acids in urine so it no longer
causes Irritation, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts Is Inexpensive and can
not injure; makes a delightful effer
vescent lithla-water drink which
everyone should take now and then
to keep the kidneys clean and active,
and the blood pure, thereby avoiding
serious kidney complications.

nounced that he does not desire a re
election to the office of secretary, his
successor will be elected by the con
ference. The Rev. E. R. lleckman, of
Altoona, and the Rev. Dr. A. Lawrence
Miller, of Bloomsburg, are candidates
for the office, both having served sev
eral years as assistant secretary. The
position requires a large amount of
work and carries with it no salary, so
the church is to be congratulated that
capable men come forward with a
willingness to serve.
Following the organization of the
conference the missionary sermon will
be preached by the Rev. Dr. Henry R.
Bender, of Clearfield.
In the afternoon the memorial serv
ice will be held, after which the insti
tute hour will afford members of the
conference and visitors an opportunity
to hear the great temperance cam
paigner, Dr. Clarence True Wilson,
speak on "Present-Day Advance in Re
form Movements."
Wednesday evening two anniver
saries will be held, that of the board
of Sunday schools and also that of the
board of temperance, prohibition and
public morals. The speakers are Dr.
L. O. Hartman, of Chicago, and Dr.
Clarence True Wilson, of Washington,
D. C. The temperance question is
therefore in the forefront and John
Barleycorn is in for a severe arraign
ment on the very first day of the con
ference. It is a live issue wherever
church people come together these
days.
Plan Annuity Fund
A report on the annuity fund was
presented to the board of trustees last
night. The conference alms to raise
$400,000 as a fund for superannuated
ministers. The report, which will be
presented to the conference on Thurs
day, shows that $50,000 was realized
in the campaign of the past year.
This evening the conference will be
continued with the anniversary of the
Conference Home Missionary Society.
The meeting will be presided over by
the Rev. J. T. Bell and the speakers

TRAINING VIEWS
PROF. HOWARD G. RIBBIjK, PRIN
CIPAL OF THE CENTRAL. 11IGH
SCHOOL, WRITES:
"Out- debt to our Country seems
to me to be persistently under
estimated. Our sense of security,
our ability to exercise our rights,
is dependent on and In direct pro
portipn to the power of our gov
ernment to protect us. It is ob
vious that we. have an obligation.
At this juncture it is just as ob
vious that we can best meet our
obligation by service. To be val
uable, service must be efficient.
It is hard to deny that the log
ical conclusion-is universal mili
tary t raining. '
"But I must protest against
any attempt to have this training
grafted on the High School. Su
perintendent Henry Snyder, of
Jersey City, is chairman of the
committee of the National Edu
cational Association for investi
gation of this subject. His idea
is that the temptation to intro
duce the military feature into the
High School is merely the one of
half doing it by doing it the
easiest way, since the High
School is already organized and
we can apply an anaesthetic to
our national conscience by saying
the High School do it."
Military drill as it would be con
ducted in the High School is not
for a moment to be mistaken for
military training. One is of ne
cessity a feeble imitation of the
other.
"All things considered, prob
ably universal military training is
desirable, but if we must come to
it let us at any rate have the real
thing."

Mother Praises
That Relieved
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin Is a
Dependable Family
Laxative.
Nearly all the sickness incident to
a, baby's life is due to constipation, or
inaction of the bowels. At the ttrst in
dication of irregularity in this impor
tant function, relief should be afforded
promptly. A mild laxative should be
administered to gently carry off the
congested waste and leave the stom
ach and bowels free to perform their
allotted tasks.
Of the various remedies recom
mended to relieve constipation, the
combination of simple laxative herbs
with pepsin, as prescribed by Dr. W.
B. Caldwell and sold in drug stores
under the name of Dr. Caldwell's Sy
rup Pepsin, is the most effective. It
containus no opiate or narcotic drug,
is pleasant to the tast, mild and gen
tle in action, and quickly brings the
desired relief in an easy, natural man
ner.
Mrs. C. J. Douglas, Mason, 111.,
writes that she cannot say enough in
praise of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin
as a dependable family laxative. Lit
tle Mary Eva had been badly consti
pated until they tried Dr. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin, which brought the first
natural relief the child had had in two
