SATURDAY EVENING,
MOTHER RETURNS
BOY TO RICHES
"Rich Little Poor Boy" Re
adopted After Few Months
at His Parents' Home
New York, July 28.—The "rich lit
tle poor boy" resumed the name of
George Bernard Shire when Surro
gate Colahan yesterday signed the
papers by which Mr. and Mrs. Leo D.
Shire legally adopted him.
This marked the latest and proba
bly the last chapter in the public his
tory of the 5-year-old boy who
changed parents and went from af
fluence to poverty several times with
in a few months.
The name of George had been given
to him by the Shires when they took
him into their home as a foundling.
He eemed likely to lose it when his
parents turned up in Joseph Pets
zonk and his wife, Helen.
The Shires surrendered him to the
Petszonks. They considered taking
him back when his mother became
convinced it would be a mistake for
the child to leave his comfortable
home for a tenement. Later the Shires
appeared to have abandoned their ef
forts to win him. Now they have
changed their minds again.
The Petszonks explained in the
court papers that they "feel the wel
fare of the child will be promoted
by placing him in a good home." They
yielded him up voluntarily and uncon
ditionally. Both father and mother
pledged themselves not to interfere
with the upbringing of the youngster
in any way.
In Need of Charity
Neither Mr. Shire, who is a wealty
shoe merchant, nor his wife would
make a statement. They first took
the child into their home through the
State Charities Aid Association, into
whose custody he had drifted after
being placed with the Madonna Day
Nursery five years ago by his mother.
The father was ill, and the mother
could get no work, so she turned the
boy over to charity.
Pride caused her to give his name
as "Joseph Bowrack," though he had
been called "Saja." When she went
back to the nursery later he had dis
appeared.
Afters years of search she found
the State Charities Association had
placed the youngster with the Shires.
The Shires had not yet formally
adopted him. Mrs. Petszonk last
March obtained a writ of habeas
corpus. The boy's foster parents
decided to fight the court proceedings,
but on seeing the mother's affection
for her child, they decided to give
him up.
The little boy was taken to the
Petszonk home, in the Bronx. He
seemed to pine for the Shires, and his
mother wrote to them she thought it
would be best for the child if they
took him back. So back George went
to the Shires' apartment. But after
a night there he cried for his mother.
He was returned to her. After fur
ther negotiations it was said the
Shires had gone away for the sum
mer, and had definitely given up all
Idea of getting the child back.
It was the general understanding
they had been overtaken by doubts
that an adopted child such as George
might not develop in the way they
wished. But Mrs. Petszonk remained
firm in her intention of sacrificing
her own happiness for the boy's.
This apparently overcame the hesi
tancy of the Shires, for on July 8 the
boy went back to them.

MY DREAM BOAT
The boat of my dreams I launched
away,
In the strength of youth's desire,
On the sea of the years
With his laughter and tears
And the storms that the Fates
conspire.
The boat of my dreams, with a wish
for a sail,
And never a thought of a shoal.
Wit Hope at te helm,
And the beautiful realm
Of happiness for my goal.
X launched away on a sea unknown,
And the soft breeze filled my sail;
The years flew by
'Neath a cloudless sky,
And I scorned the rising gale.
But, alas, the fierce winds rent my
sail.
And my dream boat went astray;
Of my wish bereft
There's nothing left
But a prayer at the end of the
day.

PAXTANG PARK—Vaudeville.
COLONIAL —"The Question."
REGENT "The Land of Long
Shadows."
To-day for the last Alice Joyce
and Harry Morey the Vitagraph
popular co-stars
"The Question" will be seen at the
ai iue Colonial. Colonial in a strong
drama "The yues
tlon," which is one of the best plays
that these two stars have appeared in
for some time. The same program in
cludes a xunny and daring Keystone
comedy "Cactus Nell." Monday and
Tuesday the Metro present the "End
of the Tour" with Lionel Barrymore."
This play depicts graphically the life
of traveling players WHO are not over
burdened with success. The company
is playing "CamiHe" through the West
and the receipts dwindle with each
performance. "The End of the Tour"
shows the interior of three different
small town theaters. An extra fea
ture is a rapid-tire Keystone comedy,
"The Betrayal of Maggie," also Mr.
and Mrs. Sidney Drew in a new Metro,
comedy.
To-day the Regent theater presents
Jack Gardner, the famous musical
comedy star
"Land of Long SlindonV in "Land of
nt Kegent Today. Lung Shad
ows." Land
of long shadows, land of hungry
wolves and everlasting- snow—the
wilds of Canadian Northwest, is the
scene of this thrilling photodrama. A
young trapper barricades himself in
his lonely cabin and gives battle to
the mounted police. They charge him
with a murder he did not commit. He
has more than himself and his wife
to fight for. The tight is fierce. All
appears lost for the trapper. The tim
ber wolves attack and drive oft the
police. Providence had intervened for
the sake of the "little stranger."
Kathlyn Williams and House Peters
will be seen next Monday in a pictur
ization of Willard Mack's thrilling
story "The Highway of Hope."
One of the very best forms of
amusement that the busy Harris
burger has during the hot
The Show months is the big open
at Paxtang. air theater at Paxtang
park. There one may see
the best acts in vaudeville and now
and then a musical comedy equal to
any that come to town during the
winter season.
The bill at the park theater this
week is an excellent vaudeville show.
There is not an act on the program
that doesn't tour the best vaudeville
houses in the country during the reg
ular season.
For example the Georgolas Trio
admittedly the best exhibition of pis
tol and rifle marksmanship on the
stage are the feature attraction of
this-'week's show, at Paxtang. E*pe
and Dutton, two athletic comedians,
who are well known to oui'local the
ater patrons are also on the bill and
so is Mabel Mac Donald, the fashion
plate songbird, who is a big hit in all
leading vaudeville houses. Alexander
and Fields, the hoboe parody singers
and Bicknell, a clay modeler, who is

A MEAT PIE THAT
IS DIFFERENT
A pleasing variation from
pastry meat pies may be had'by
preparing eggplant and meat pie,
says the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.
Eggplant and Meat Pie
Cook together in a baking pan
alternate layers of eggplant and
chopped cooked meat salted to
taste. If raw meat only is avail
able it fnay be fried until brown
before b&king. Tomato juice or
pulp, or a few sliced tomatoes
may be added if desired.

FOR YOUR LIFE
Duty Demands
Robust Health
Fight to get it and keep it
Fight—fight day in and day out to
prevent being overtaken by ills and
ails. Keep wrinkles from marring
the cheek and the body from losing
its youthful appearance and buoy
ancy. Fight when ill-health is com
ing with its pallor and pains, defects
and declining powers. Fight to stay
Its course and drive It off.
But fight intelligently. Don't fight
without weapons that can win the
day, for without the intelligent use
of effective weapons the pallor
spreads and weakness grows and a
seemingly strong man or woman oft
times becomes a prey to Ills after all.
You will not find this class of per
sons in the hypoferrin ranks. No
unhealthy, dull, draggy, droopy per
sons in that line. It is a hale, hearty,
robust aggregation of quick-steppers
who view life in a joyous frame of
mind and are mentally and physically
equal to any emergency. Hypoferrin
stands for sound body and sound
mind —it is the invigorating tonic of
the times—powerful and unsurpassed
as a health restorer, vitalizer and
health preserver. Fight to hold the
vigor of a sound body with hypo
ferrin or to stay the process of decay
and restore health and strength—you
win. This tonic of amazing, wonder
working properties has been ap
proved by physicians as a restorer
and safeguard of health. It is a
thoroughly scientific preparation of
the very elements necessary to tone
up the stomach and nerves, to build
strong, vital tissue, make pure blood,
firm flesh and solid, active, tireless
muscles. .. , . .
Hypoferrin contains those mighty
strength-producing agents, lecithin
and-lron peptonate, in a form best
adapted to benefit the body and its
organs. Its ingredients are absolute
ly necessary to* the blood. In nine
cases out of ten a run-down condi
tion, sallow, pale complexions that
"all in" feeling and frail bodies are
due to lack of lecithin-and-lron pep
tonate in the system.
Your mental und physical strength
and endurance depends upon a
leclthin-an-iron peptonate laden
blood; steady, dependable nerves and
a healthy stomach. With these you
cati meet life at any angle.
This wonder tonic, hypoferrin.
which is as perfect as science can
get to nature, meets every essential
demand of the human organism. It
is safe and sure and a boon to run
down, worn-out men and women.
Hypoferrin means nature's own way
of bringing color to the cheeks,
strength to the body and keeping
the vigor and buoyancy of youth. The
powder and paint way of effecting
beauty is not needed by hypoferrin
women and girls. Their blood, filled
with nature's beauty stores, creates
conditions that give firmness and
grace to the body and the glow of
health to the cheeks.
No need of going through life sick
ly and always feeling miserable In
this age of medical science. Join
the hypoferrin ranks. It puts Into
you the springy snap and vigor you
ought to have and puts life into your
body and mind that inspires the con
fidence that yftu confront the world
on an equal footing with anyone.
Hypoferrin may be had at your
druggist's or direct from us for SI.OO
per package. It is well worth the

WARNING AGAINST
MAIL ORDER FIRM
Chamber of Commerce Dis
covers Clever Ruse Being
Used in Harrisburg
Investigation of a clever adver
tising scheme used by a prominent
mall order house In Chicago has re
sulted in the issuing of a warning by
tl>e Harrisburg Chamber of Com
merce. According to the report by
officials of the local organization, the
Chicago firm is sending letters to
residents of the city stating that at
the request of the "Harrisburg Im
provement Committee" a copy of
their catalog is being mailed to the
person named.
After completing a thorough in
vestigation the Chamber of Com
merce officials state they had failed
to discover the existence of any local
organization known as the "Harris
burg Improvement Committee." which
name has evidently been devised for
the purpose of lending respectability
arid strength to the letters of the
Chicago mail order house.
The Harrisburg Chamber of Com
merce believes that if there is such
an institution as the Harrisburg Im
provement Committee, and It spends
its time in furnishing mailing lists
and information to a Chicago mail
order house for the purpose of trans
ferring business from local merchants
to the Chicago house, that it is en-
Raging in an effort of which it ought
to be thoroughly ashamed and that
it ought to change its name to the
"Harrisburg Destruction Commit
tee" and thus reveal its purpose
more clearly.

The inroads of the Chicago mail
order house upon Pennsylvania mer
chants can best be illustrated by the
fact that the investigations of the
Harrisburg Chamber of Commerce
have revealed that in one of Harris
burg's most prosperous suburban
tcburban towns the tonnage of mer
chandise coming into that town from
mail order houses to private con
sumers far exceeds the tonnage of
merchandise received by its local re
tailers for sale to the people.
This means that the local mer
chants in the Harrisburg suburb in
question have now definitely been
put in second place by the Chicago
mail order house. The suburb in
question is a prosperous manufactur
ing town of several thousand people
and if its name was published its
own merchants and people and Har
risburg people would be still more
astonished.
The Harrisburg Chamber of Com
merce is going to continue its efforts

I THANK SANPAN
Says Mrs. S. B. Shiley, 340
High St., Middletown, Pa.
"I surely was miserable, it was
an effort for me to do my house
work, in fact everything was an ef
fort and a burden.
"My liver had bothered me for a
long time, then too, I was troubled
with indigestion which seemed to rob
me of my strength and ambition, I
was badly swollen with gas, which
caused Intense pains in my stomach,
back, and under my shoulder blades.
"I was very nervous, could not
sleep soundly, had no appetite, and
what little food I did eat, did me
no good, in fact it made me feel
miserable, so that I dreaded the
meal hour.
"I was feverish at times, then
again I had a creepy feeling. I took
treatment extensively, but nothing
gave me any relief. Finally a friend
recommended Sanpan, and I decided
to give it a trial, this has proven a
very wise move on my part.
"I now feel fine, that bloated con
dition has gone, I am not bothered
any more with pains in my stomach
or back, can eat everything, and en
joy it.
"I thank Sanpan for restoring me
to health, and recommend this won
derul medicine to all who are ail
ing."
Sanpan Is now being introduced at
Keller's Drug Store, 405 Market
street, Harrisburg, where the Sanpan
man is explaining it to the people.—

Overland Production Is
$14,000,000 Over 1916
The production figures of Willys-
Overland Inc., for the current year
up to July 21, show an increase of
more than $14,000,000 over the same
period last year. Never before In
the history of the big Toledo con
cern has it been able to furnish such
startling figures.
From January 1 to July 21, 1916
the production amounted to $72,167,-
180 at retail prices. During the same
period this year the production
amounted to $86,251,575.
In checking over the production
records it was discovered that the
one hundred thousandth car manu
factured by the Willys-Overland
Company on July 21 was a Light
Four, one of the models in the
Willys-Overland line that has proved
so popular this year. The insistent
demand for this model has been so
great that the factory has been un
able to catch up with the orders
ahead, even though it has been ship
ping these cars at the rate of 2,000 a
week.
The month of June was thought
to be a record breaker with the busi
ness amounting to $11,150,000, but
the retail sales for the first threo
weeks in July have totalled $9,250,-
000. It is only fair to estimate that
when the complete returns are made
the sales for the month of July will
exceed by a goodly margin those of
June.
Not only is the total amount of re
tail sales in actual dollars and cents
greater than last year, but the num
ber of cars sold is in excess of last
year's figures.
All indications point to a banner
year for the Toledo company, still
! greater sales records being antici
pated for the near future.
