NO STOMACH PAIN,
GAS, INDIGESTION
IN FIVE MINUTES
"Pape's Diapepsin" is tjie best
antacid and stomach regu
lator known.
"Really does" put upset stomachs in
order—"really does" overcome Indi
gestion, dyspepsia, gas, heartburn and
sourness due to acid fermentation in
five minutes—that—Just that—makes
Pape's Diapepsin the largest selling
stomach antacid and regulator In the
world." If what you eat ferments and
turns sour, you belch gas and eructate
undigested food or water; head is
dizzy and aches; breath foul; tongue
coated; your insides tilled with Indi
gestible waste, remember the Moment
"Pape's Diapep.sin" comes in contact
with the stotnach al" sucn distress van
ishes. It's truly astonishing—almost
marvelous, and the joy is its harm
lessness.
A large fifty-cent case of Pape's
Diapepsin Is worth its weight in gold
to men and women who can't get
Iheir stomachs regulated. It belongs
in your home—should always be kept
handy in case of a sick, sour, upset
stomach during the day or at night.
It's the quickest, surest antacid for
the stomach in' the world.

] 'WEDNESDAY EVENING,
MAJ. SHUMBERGER
WILL LEAVE CITY
Accepts High Position With Le
high Portland Cement Co.
at Allentown
' iljH
MAJOR JOHN C. SHUMBERGER
Major John Calvin Shumberger, of
this city, has accepted a highly re
sponsible position with the Lehigh
Portland Cement, Company, of Allen
town, which requires severing his con
nection with the National Guard, his
profession of public accounting and
also his removal this city to
Allentown.
In military circles Major Shum
berger has just rounded out his twen
tieth year in the National Guard. He
is a veteran of the Spanish-American
War, serving in the Pennsylvania Vol
unteer Cavalry in Porto Rico in 1898.
In the last call of the President he
served nine months to the day. Five
months of this period, through recom
mendations of regular arrrty officers,
he served as federal paymaster, draw
ing his checks on the Treasurer of the
United States, paying troops and bills
on muster out of the Federal service.
While this service was performed
within Pennsylvania, it carried with It
great sacrifice and hazards, traveling
over 4,500 miles. After arriving at a
station payrolls and vouchers had to
be computed by him, and where money
could not be secured from banks or
could not be forwarded through ex
press companies in time to make
proper payments he carried as hijU)
as $65,000 in traveling bags, in sleeln
ers and in automobiles at all hours
of day and night, across mountains
and through dangerous conntrv. In
Pittsburgh the day a SIO,OOO robbery
took place Major Shumberger carried
$64,000 from the bank to the armory.
Many similar circumstances were re
lated where delays by the railroad, ac
cidents to automobiles, occasioned
other means to successfully carry out
the instructions of the War Depart
ment.
While orders to pay troops were
received on holidays, and while troops
were being paid at night, orders were
received to proceed at a time when no
facilities were available to reach the
resignated point, twenty or thirty miles
distant, when banks were closed, time
locks and burglar alarms had been set,
yet there is not a single record of
any order not successfully carried out.
While Major Sliumberger's new po
sition required him to resign from
the Guard, he holds the highest ad
miration for those under whom he has
served and claims that his success was
due to liis opportunity to serve under
such soldierly and efficiently qualified
men as Colonel Frederick M. Ott, Gen
eral J. P. S. Gobin and General Thomas
J. Stewart.
Resided Here Since 188"
Mr. Shumberger came to Harris
burg from Cumberland county in 18£7
and organized and conducted -the
School of Commerce in this city from
1894 to 1902. During this period Mr.
Shumberger was called upon to audit
books and organize systems. In 1902
he disposed of his school and took up
the profession of accounting. Since
that date- he has occupied a suite of
rOorns in the Union Trust Building in
Market Square. His success in ac
counting has taken him as far south
as Richmond, Va., and as far north as
Montreal, Canada. He has been the
chief accountatn in some of the larg
est cases conducted within this terri
tory. His work has developed chiefly
along the lines of state and federal lax
reports and confiscations of funds. Mr.
Shumberger and his family are mem
bers of Market Square Presbyterian
Church. He is a past master of Har
risburg Lodge, No. 629, Free and Ac
cepted Masons: a past high priest of
Perseverance Chapter, No. 21, Royal
Arch Masons, and also past com
mande rof Pilgrim Commandery, No.
11, Knights Templar of Pennsylvania,
and is at present captain of the drill
corps of %embo Temple, Ancient and
Accepted Order Nobles of the Mystic
Shrine: also an active member of the
Harrisburg Consistory, Scottish Rite
Masosn.
He Is a staunch Republican and is
serving at present on the Harrisburg
city Republican committee. He was
recently tendered a directorate in the
Harrisburg Young Men's Christian As
sociation, which lie will he compelled
to decline. He is a member "of the
Modern Woodmen, also Harrisburg
Lodge. No. 68, Independent Order of
Odd Felows, the Harrisburg Rotary
Club, the Chamber of Commerce and
the Harrisburg Club.
Harry Elsworth Schriver, of Hum.
melßtown, who has been with Mr.
Shumberger as first accountant for a
number of years, succeeds Mr. Shum
berger in the business and profession
of accounting.

HA.RJRISBURG TELEGRAPH
HARRISBURG GENTLY
WAVING FLAG CITY
[Continued From First Page]
to the request of the Mayor to "make
this a city of unfurled "Old
Glory" this morning by the thousands.
The city is covered with the stars and
stripes. More are being hung out every
hour and children are carrying them,,
cheering as they go about the streets.
Jitneys,, delivery wagons, trolley cars
and automobiles bear the colors fore
and aft. Stores, business houses, shops,
mills, churches and homes are display
ing them In such profusion as lias never
been seen since Civil War days.
Thousands of small American flags
are being distributed this evening by
the HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH.
Many I'atrlotlc UrmonHtrationx
In many parts of the city patriotic
demonstrations have marked Harris
burg's "Flag Day." The night forces
on the Pennsylvania Railroad, before
quitting work this morning, ran up
hundreds of flags on the switch and
watchhouses, coal wharves and other
buildings in the yards. During the
progress of this patriotic work engine
/ BMd shop whistles let go and for tive
. minutes shrieked their salutes. Other
] demonstrations were held throughout
] tly> day.
i Traffic Policeman Patrick Hoffman,
stationed at the corner of Third and
Walnut streets, this morning hailed
i every passing wagon and automobile
j that did not show the colors. He stop-
I ped several jitneys and told the driv
j ers that this was "Flag Day," and to
I "get one and tack her up before you
| come back this way again."
, The (lags will be out to-morrow when
j the big parade,in honor of Ambassador
Gerard passes down Market street, and
many will keep them up throughout
j the coming months.

LEGISLATURE QUITS FOU WEEK
The House and Senate both ad
journed to-day until Monday night at
9 o'clock after passing finally several
i senate bills, including the Snyder bill
j authorizing school boards to establish

CITY SUPPORT FOR LIBRARIES
Senator Charles A. Snyder introduced
a bill to-day relating to free public
non-sectarian libraries. The bill per
mits municipalities to make appropria
tions for their establishment, the ap
propriation not to exceed two mills on
the dollar.
Mechanics Lien Law
Has Outlived Its
Usefulness, Walter Says
Representative Charles Walter, of
Franklin, to-day Introduced a bill to
repeal all the mechanics' Hen acts.
Mr. Walter Issued this statement,
saying that before the Civil War, when
mbney was scarce and rates of inter
est'high, it was perhaps good public
policy to encourage building by giving
to builders fnd material men the right
to file liens. At the present time this
Is not necessary. A contract between
the owner and the principal contractor
if filed in the courthouse prevents
a material man or subcontractor from
filing a lien. A mortgage given to
pay for the building also prevents the
contractor or any one else from col
lecting lien. The only persons who
arc likely to be compelled to pay a
mechanics' lien at present are those
without business experience and who
trust their friends who are contrac
tors. The legal profession generally
thinks the law has outlived its use
fulness and that the interests of the
community would be best served by
its repeal.
IMPORTANT Ml'Tl'AD MEETING
