Unless you have actually seen Pos lam's work and know how readily it takes hold, stopping the Itching at once, you will hardly believe its ef fects possible in so short a time.

If your nose is clogged, with air passage swollen and inflamed, or if crusts are constantly forming in it, if you suffer from droppings in the throat and are blowing, hawking, spit ting all the time, you have catarrh. You may have had catarrh for years and can go on having it for years to come if you refuse to act. But if you really wish to end It quickly and feel 100 per cent, better in every way, go to H. C. Kennedy or any live local druggist and say, "I want a large pack age of liyoinel with inhaler." No stomach dosing, greasy ointments, sprays or gargles. You breathe Hyomei and as you inhale its pure, whole some air its healing tonic balsams quickly reach all the sore, inflamed membranes of the nose and throat and the catarrhal germs are destroyed. Clears out the head and throat like magic, opens up the nose, makes breathing easy and gives complete re lief from every catarrhal symptom. It has done this for years for thousands of people. Your money back if it cannot do it for you.

TO MAKE BIG IMPROVEMENT $134,293 Will Be Spent in City and Suburbs to Better Service The Rell Telephone Company will spend $134,293 for additions and im provements to the plant in and around Harrisburg, according to an announce ment made this morning. Of the appropriation $78,000 is for underground and aerial cable. This will eliminate several pole lines and provide facilities for future expansion. More than 12,000 feet of underground cable, containing from 25 to 900 pairs of wires per cable, will be placed. In addition there 'will be strung nearly 6,100 feet of aerial cable. Extensive additions are planned to the underground system. These in clude 1,660 feet of trenches. Each will contain from one to five under ground ducts and will require the con struction of eight new manholes. The new cable will replace 91 circuit miles of aerial wire and cable. Hig Growth The growth of Harrisburg, estimated at 28 per cent, in the last few years, and the great development of its busi ness, a Bell official said this morning, has brought about a demand for tele phone service which has resulted in a growth of 4,603 telephones in five years. There are now 11,746 in the city. Outside the city the Bell company proposes to spend approximately $56,000 for new plant extensions to care for the toll and long distance service. The Bell company division head quarters offices now occupy five of the six floors of the Johnston building. During the last year the buildings at 208-210 Walnut street have been re modeled and there is also being con structed at Cameron and Mulberry streets a modern garage and office building. BLANKET OF TROOPS BEING SPREAD SECRETLY (Continued From Page' One) ! had any Information to give out ex cept that the troops were moving. It was admitted that the Cumber land Valley, Reading and Rockville bridges crossing the Susquehanna river would be placed under guard, but no definite time was fixed for the arrival of the soldiers in Harrisburg. Accord ing to a dispatch from Philadelphia, four troop trains were scheduled to leave that city to-day. The dispatch reads: Carry Out Schedules "Strategic points in all parts ol Pennsylvania are being placed under heavy guard to-day by detachments from the First and Third Infantry Regiments, the Philadelphia National Guard organizations which were or dered to mobilize Sunday two weeks ago by the War Department. Five traffic officials of the Pennsylvania Railroad prepared the schedule of trains, assisted by Colonel Ketiip. "The state, from Harrisburg to Pitts burgh, is under protection of the Third Regiment, which was scheduled to leave here early to-day, a thousand strong, from the freight yard at Broad street and Washington avenue. East ern and Northern Pennsylvania will be guarded by the First Regiment. Com panies C and E of the First Regiment Ttdlo Bobby, what you - 4 ot there? POST TOASTIES ( BEST CORN FLAKES EVER ) AMERICA'S ENTRY INTO THE WAR IS WELCOME NEWS Great Britain Beccives With Joy Word of U. S. Decision By Associated Press London, April 3. Under the head ing "Brothers in Arms" the Pall Mall Gazette says to-day of President Wil son's speech: "The President frames the issue In a setting calculated to stir the deepest emotions of the American people. The Kussian revolution enables him to commend it to them as a conflict be tween the virtues of democracy and the crimes of autocracy. ♦ • "America enters the war without reservations. Her action will be wel comed both for the substantial aid wjilch she will bring and for the com munity of spirit which she will further among the free nations of the world. It is a great satisfaction to be Joined thus with the nation carrying so much of our blood in a crusade worthy of its best traditions and ours." German Mistake The Globe says: "German statesmen have scornfully affected to regard the entrance of the United States as negligible. We can safely leave them to iind out their mis take. In the meantime we are con tent to stand shoulder to shoulder with the land of the free in the great est battle for freedom the world has ever seen." In a long: editorial the Evening Standard says: "The German government has done a very mad thins in forcing the United States into the ranks of its enemies." It argues that until yesterday Ger many could have obtained peace by abandoning submarine warfare Inas much as the "strong pacifist element in the United States would have over ruled the wiser party which recognizes Prussia as the enemy of mankind who must be disabled if the world is to enjoy peace." Germans Playing Game The Standard then says that Ger many in bringing the crushing mate rial and moral force of the great re public against her was acting on only two possible theories: First, that Ger many contemplates a surrender and that her pride demands that she sur render only to the whole world: sec ond, that it means a desperate staking of all on the chance of starving Eng land by her submarine campaign.

Few women ever think of buying a suit or dress without having it fitted. Ilowf much more important that the corset —the foundation over which the suit must be fitted and the garment on which so much of bodily comfort and perfection depends—should be selected with expert advice and adjusted by an expert fitter. There is a right corset for each figure—not a matter of guess work —it is an exact science which calls for a knowledge of physiology and hygiene. Our corsetieres are thoroughly trained and widely experienced in this science and we know that once you try a corset fitting here you will make Bowman's your cot-set headquarters. We sell all the best corsets —special and regular brands—the low semi-boned mod els for the youthful slender woman—the medium bust heavier boned models for the aver age type and higher bust models for the stout figures, in sizes to 42. bowman's-thim ru APRIL 3, 1917. 3
