FIT AS A FIDDLE
Sanpan Drove All
Trouble Away
Mr. John T. Snow, well-known
citizen, 665 Briggs street, Harrisburg,
says: "Sanpan surely is some medi
cine. As a general thing I have no
use for advertised medicines, but 1
must hand it to Sanpan. It surely
does the work.
"Do you know I did not know
a well day. A sluggish liver had
poisoned my system. My stomach
was in a bad way and my food did
me no good. I always had heartburn
after eating, and many times after
eating gas would press .against my
heart and cause bad pains.
"I felt tired out all the time, had
no life about me. When the time
would come to get up 1 felt that I
would just have to have more rest,
and would have to force myself to
rise. I was troubled with constipa
tion and a catarrhal condition, and
really all these things had me going.
"I heard a lot about Sanpan, but
was a little leary, however. I kept
reading the daily reports of it in
the papers, and made up my mind
to try it, and say, it was just won
derful the way that medicine did
take hold, and in a short time it
drove all my troubles away, and I
am fine as a fiddle —Yes, indeed, I
surely have a good word for San
pan. It is great."
Sanpan is now being Introduced at
Keller's Drug Store, 405 Market
street, Harrisburg, where the Sanpan
man is explaining Its merits to the
people.
Sanpan will be sent postpaid upon
receipt of the price,—Ad

TELEGRAPH TO
AID SUBSCRIBERS
IMPROVE HOMES
The demand for greater economical
living In tbr present crisis of our coun
try makes It obligatory that every
housewife and true helpmate should
be prepared to do her part in eliminat
ing every unnecessary expense, wheth
er in the matter of wearing apparel,
the management of the home or in the
Jdtchen.
The greatest results are obtained by
those who are prepared—those who
Unow hw io practice economy In a
scientific wa;, by doing their own sew*
ln& and ptftia dressmaking and mil
inery. By kuowing how to make their
•own wearing apparel and hats they
eliminate the tneat expense of hiring a
dressmaker or having a milliner do the
uork for tlvii... It is knowing how to do
.1 thing coi-7->ctly and scientifically that
[)roduiv?a th-. gruKest possible and last
ing results. Average knowledge In the
farreaching subjects of economy is not
enough. T'nc knowledge must be gain
ed through preparation. It must be
telentifle.
This is the greatest economic mo
ment In the r f of every woman. It
is her chance to serve the needs of her
country aw? rxerclse every possible
means to elimirate waste In the home.
The management of this paper has
been fortunate In perfecting arrange
ments with TLr I Jncoln Correspondence
Schools, Incuporated, of New York
city by wht-'h ell our subscriber* have
an opportunity of learning the scien
tific method of practicing economy.
The money i woman can save by
knowing how to make her own dresses
and hats win. greatly add to the de
fense of home and country.
This is a serous time in curpountry's
life. Every home and every family's in
dividual members must avoid extrav
agance In living. This can be done
without sacrifice of personul or home
comforts if the housewife knows how
to go about it scientifically. The Na
tional Housewives' League, that great
economical body of 800,000 thrifty
women, have adopted the slogan "Save
to Win!" These women know the
value of mving and how to avoid ev
ery unnecessary expense both In a
personal way and in the kitchens of
their homes and In the proper and sci
entific management of their .homes.
Study and application of economical
principles ha*e made them one of the
ireat and most helpful forces in the
country, simply because they know the
scientific way of doing things in the
exercise of practical economy. It Us
every woman's duty to serve her coun

country never had a better opportunity

U. S. Cities Are Living
Beyond Their Incomes
By Associated Press
New York, June 26. —American
municipalities have been living be
yond their incomes according to a
preliminary census bureau report for
the fiscal year 1916, made public
to-day, which shows that the aver
age per capita indebtedness for 213
cities is $74.64, a figure nearly eight
times as great as the corresponding
tlgure for the national government.
The excess of expenditures over rev
enues in these cities amounted to
$73,591,070, or $2.28 per capita.
One of the most noteworthy fea
tures of the report Is the rapid
growth of the urban at the expense
of the rural communities. Wartime
conditions have increased the de
mand for workers in the cities, espe
cially in munitions centers, and con
sequently there has been a great
exodus from the country districts
with a proportionate increase in the
populations of the cities.

Discontent of Stomach
to Be Learned in War
By Associated Press
London, June 26.—"Discontent of
the stomach is mora to be feared
than discontent of the brain—that
is why wo value the co-operation of
American farmers."
This statement was made by R.
E. Prothero, Minister of Agriculture,
to the Associated Press to-day. "The
outcome of the war," said Mr. Proth
ero, "may ultimately hang on the
question of food supplies, and the
i American farmer is allotted the es
sential part to play in the great
I struggle for freedom."
0 Selection
and Preservation
of Foods
JjMFTEEN or twenty years ago the
scientist who devoted any time to house
. hold subjects was really considered not just
altogether right.
But now we have learned a lot about bac
teriology, thanks to the scientist, and every
housewife should know more about this sub
ject than she does.
Perishable food products should be kept
under refrigeration at all times if they are
not to spoil. Bacteria, like our bodies de
mand food; they thrive in moisture and high
temperatures, but do not thrive when food
stuffs are held under refrigeration.
False Economy
to Do Without Ice.
It is false economy for the housewife to figure on
getting along without ice. The correct handling
of perishable foodstuffs in the home require that
they be placed immediately in a well-iced refriger
ator
. . Meat, for example, is kept in cold storage in the
meat market, when brought into higher temper
ature the water comes out of it and the first thing
you know the meat spoils.
Fruits which have been shipped from the South,
comes out of cold storage and if kept in a high tem
perature in the home soon spoils, if not safeguarded
with ice.
Isn't it economy to keep the butter in the refriger
ator and have it come to the table fresh, sweet and
hard, rather than in a half oily form?
Alspure Ice is the cheapest thing you can buy*
for the value given. At a small daily .cost you de
rive benefits worth many times the actual expense.
