Some of the many features that
make Sonora the Highest Class
Talking Machine in the World.

Jr % *he phonograph you want.
'V^ iT * r * al pl*7'ng: All makes of disc records are played perfectly.
This is part of the Sonora design. It is not secured by additional
devices which are always unsatisfactory.
2. Tone quality: At the Tanama Pacific Exposition, in competition
with the world's foremost phonographs, the Sonora won the high
est score for tone quality. It is without a peer.
3. Cabinet work and design: The wonderful beauty of the Sonora '
is due both to its finish and its graceful flowing lines (the "bulge"
effect), a patented process. (
4. Tone control: Tone is controlled at its source, the only proper
place. This is one of the patented features that help to make the
Sonora the best that human ingenuity has been able to devise.
5. Sound box: This assists in reproducing a golden tone for which
the Sonora is famous: and sends forth notes, clear, distinct, accurate
and beautiful.
6. Automatic atop: This is provided on all machines. It is simple
mechanically correct, convenient and useful.
7. Silent motor: This is made in Switzerland by experts with gener
ations of experience. It is the supreme motor of the phonograph
world and piaya nearly twice as long as others in machines sold at
the same price.
8. Sound amplifier or horn: This helps to produce the wonderful
Sonora tone. It Is made on scientific principles and with special
exclusive .treatments.
9. Envelope filing system: This patented feature is a marvel of sim
plicity and convenience: records can always be quickly located
when wanted.
Every Sonora is guaranteed for one year

She has been in Jail since May 12.
Before that her husband, Andrew,
was declared insane. Joseph L

for the old man arid some papers
were given into the care of Mrs.

came normal and an effort was made
to discharge the trustee of an estate

pounds.
These standards are not absolute.
Men under 5 feet 4 inches must be
of exceptionally good physique. Vari
ations in weight above 211 pounds
are not disqualifying unless sufficient
to constitute obesity.
The mental test is designed only to
develop whether the man is of sound
understanding.
Examinations of the eyes and ears
are made by charts and whispering
tests.
Disqualifying Diseases
After this exercise the examination
heart is disqualifying.
The men must have at least four
serviceable molars—two above and
two below opposed.
Before the heart and lung test the

ing the armies.
From official sources it is learned

as a general class, miners, men en
gaged in shipbuilding, munition
workers of all classes and every
branch of industry that aids directly
or indirectly in maintaining the mil
itary forces.
Xo Absolute Exemption
Even for men in these Industries
exemption is not absolute. It is con
ditional upon the man remaining in
the same line of employment.
On the district boards now being
formed there will be one represen
tative of labor, industry and agri
culture. Boards of about thirty
States are complete to-day.

INDIVIDUAL PREPAREDNESS
This is a time when our people need
to be strong of muscle and steady of
nerve.
Hysterical people are of no use in
war time. W hen they try to help they
hinder.
Preparedness should start with the
individual. If you are run-down and
nervous, pale and lacking in strength
to do your part, you need more blood.
If your hand, your thumb or foot
trembles when you try to hold it still,
if the lines are shaky when you write,
if you have tremors of your lips or
chin, your nerves need strengthening.
Proper food and a good tonic will
keep most people in good health. Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People
are the most popular tonic medicine
in the world, harmless, non-alcoholio
and certain in their action which is to
build up the blood and to restore vi
tality to the run-down system. For
those who are failing in strength Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills are an ideal tonic.
"Building Up the Blood" is a book
let, full of useful information. So is
the pamphlet on "The Home Treat
ment of Nervous Disorders." They
are sent free on request by the Dr.
Williams Medicine Co., Schenectady,
N. Y. Your own druggist sella Dr.

JULY 11, 1917.
July 1, when In addition to the reg
ular religious obsetrvance of the day,
a patriotic address was delivered by
H. Frank Eshleman, of Lancaster, a
member and Past Master of Charles
M. Howell Lodge, No. 496 of Millers
vile.
He chose for his theme, "The Story
of Our First Fourth of July." In
graphic manner he traced the his
tory of the impelling causes, the
mental and physical labors, the
meetings and conferences of our
forefathers, which culminated in the
Declaration of Independence, and
the signing thereof on July 4, 1776,
thriilingly describing the scene when
the last signature had been append
ed.
The appropriate celebration of In
dependence day took place in the
afternoon of the Fourth.
The decorations included a liberal
display of our National emblem,
with many beautiful flowers, and our
flag made entirely of flowers.
Piano Recital by Girls
The girl guests of the Homes arc
receiving instruction on the piano by
Mrs. Walter Wealand, under whose
tuition they are making remarkable
progress.
To demonstrate their progress a
recital was (riven in Grand Lodge
Lodge Hall on Tuesday evening,
July 3, which surprised and pleased
all who heard it.
In addition to the piano numbers,
the program was interspersed with a
vocal solo by Miss Lillian M. Car
penter of Lebanon and a recitation
by Miss Edith Reich, a girl guest,
which was rendered in a very im
pressive and pathetic manner.
George D. Woodill, a guest of tha
Homes, formerly a prominent musi
cian in Philadelphia for years, and
associated with the Carncross min
strels, at the close of the recital,
spoke of his astonishment at tho
talent exhibited.
On Saturday, David J. Davis, Past
Master of Hyde Park Lodge,
and David James and W. W. Hop
kins of the same lodge, motored to
the Home from Scranton. They re
mained over Sunday and at the Sun
day afternoon service, Mr. Davis de
livered an interesting and stirring
address on "Brotherly Love and
Fraternity."
On Saturday at 2.30 p. m. a con
cert will be given at the Homes by
a double quartet from Mozart Lodge,
No. 436 of Philadelphia.
