As a little girl of a New England village, she goes to live with two old maiden aunts.

He, in company with his brothers, who are present residents of Harrisburg, are looking for a suitable site for such a purpose, and several buildings in spected seem to meet with the ap proval of Mr. Sheesley. The only dif ficulty is that of securing adjacent trackage for his twenty-five sixty-foot cars. In conversation with Mr. Shees ley, he stated railroad conditions in the country were almost unbearable, and with the added task of providing transportation for the troops who are going South, it would be nigh impos sible to go far into the southland as heretofore.

TO HELP YOUNG GIRLS A Mother Wants Her Let ter Published Eaton, 111.—"I wish you would publish this letter for the benefit of young girls. My daughter suffered greatly from female trouble with cramps, and headache, and backache most of the time. She never felt like working and it seemed as though s=*ie was sick all the time. I decided to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and it has helped her in every way. In fact it. has really cured her, for she no longer has periodic pains, and no more headaches or backache, and I want all young girls who suiter as she did to know about it." —Mrs. Alma Mills, Eaton, 111. Another Girl's Experience. New Castle, Ind. —"From the time I was eleven years old until I Vas seventeen I suffered each month so I had to be in bed. I had headache, backache and sugh pains I would cramp double every month. I did no* know what it was to < e easy a minute. My health was all run down and the doctors did not do me any good. A neighbor told my mother about Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and I took it, and now I feel like a new person. I don't suf- I fer any more and I am regular every month." —Mrs. Hazel Hamilton, 522 South 15th St., Newcastle, Ind. Girls who are troubled as these young women were, should imme diately seek restoration to health by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege table Compound.—Adv.

A. at Camp Hancock Fast Getting Prepared to Care For Wants of Men Under the direction of Camp Edu cational Secretary George B. Landis, the educational activities at Camp Hancock, Augusta, Ga., are rapidly assuming definite form. At the pres ent time, the association buildings are not finished, but the 5,000 men who have arrived are being served in a religious and educational way with the aid of three large tents, lo cated at strategic places. The admin istration and storage buildings, with the garage, are the only ones ready for service but it is expected that by the time the remaining 22,000 Penn sylvania troops arrive, everything will be ready for a full schedule of religious, educational and physical work. A Georgia battalion has been guarding the camp, while the Motor Truck Corps of the Regular Army and a regiment of Engineers has been ministered to by the secretaries and their assistants. Some of the regulars came direct from the bor der, where they were familiar with the association's activities, and the men sent in request as soon as they arrived, for the services of the as sociation. Reading matter and writ ing materials were supplied at once and religious services were conduct ed among the men. Arrange Social Service An Army chaplain sent a formal request to Camp Secretary Tomlin son for a man to conduct a sing-song and Prof. A. L. Tebbs, of Dayton, Ohio, had a great success with the Initial effort. The new Army songs were sung and the soldier boys en joyed the Innovation immensely. Prof. Tebbs expects to have the 5,000 men in shape to greet the new ar rivals with their songs and soon the whole camp will be singing "Over There." One of the encouraging features of the work at Camp Hancock is the hearty co-operation of the ministers of Augusta. They have been most cordial and willing to assist in every way and it augurs well for the re ligious activities of the camp under Dr. M. W. Lampe, student pastor at the University of Pennsylvania. On Sunday, the Y. M. C. A. work ers will occupy the pulpits of Au gusta to present the needs of the as sociation, with reference to work in the Army camps as well as in the Augusta City Association. The city association has been over taxed al ready and a number of important im provements have been planned, among them the addition of eighteen shower baths. Social affairs have been arranged for the troops and the sixty-three students of the University of Penn sylvania who have been in training at the Augusta Arsenal for ordnance department have enjoyed a number of functions in the homes and churches. W. C. Timmons, one of the build ing secretaries, and Dr. Lampe were the chief speakers at the Rotary Club meeting on Tuesday and both made a deep impression with their admirable addresses, presenting the Army work of the association. Citizens of Augusta are co-operat ing admirably. On Sunday, scores of leading citizens will place their cars at the disposal of the soldiers for a ride throughout the country. Under the direction of prominent women, dances are being given for soldiers and officers with great success. Use McNeil's Pain Exterminator—Ad. mJ 'J , Occasionally there is a rift of sun shine in the clouds of despair that frequently hover over the local po lice court.. "What's your name?" Inquired Chief Scribe White as a young West Indian appeared before the court charged with disregarding an officer's signal. The offender never blinked. "Remoremountchetts," he replied. "Do that again," begged Mr. White. "Remoremountchetts," was the reply. The chief scribe fixed the victim with a cold eye. "Leek here," he said, "that isn't a name, that's api line. Come across." "R-e-m-o-r-e, Remore. M-o-u-n-t --c-h-e-t-t-s, Mountchetts. Remore Mountchetts." "Oh, I see," said White. Remore was driving nothing more excitable than old Dobbin, but he cut up so with Officer Dutton that he paid a filne of $5. I The old adage that "talk is cheap" ; doesn't apply any more, at least not in all quarters. Notable examples : are the Bell Telephone Company and ' the Harrisburg police court. Yesterday afternoon Daniel P. j Banks, 1116 North Third street, a j driver for the Fink Brewing Com-' pany, was before the court, charged 1 with violating a traffic ordinance. According to Thomas Channel, 313 Hamilton street. Banks refused to turn from the street oar track and kept ahead of crew No. 450 from the subway to Eleventh street. Banks was also charged with profane lan guage when asked to turn out. Banks denied the charge, saying that it was impossible to get out of the car's way. Alderman Landis was not convinced, however, and imposed a line of $5. The youth paid his fine and was about to leave the courtroom when he called out to Channel: "I'll watch ° x ,r or you fellows, and I'll get you yet." Wait a minute," said the magis trate. "We'll make your fine $15." Banks paid the extra assessment, nut hurriedly left without further conversation. _ Augustus Donetella, of South Third street, Steelton, was fined in police court for impersonating an of ficer. Officials of the police depart merit say that frequently persons who have no connection with the depart ment of justice pose as officer's, usu ally in barrooms. Telia announced to some com panions that he was an officer and had come to Harrisburg to serve a warrant. His remarks wove reported to a policeman. Telia had a war rant which had been given him by a Steelton justice of the peace to be turned over to an officer in Pottsville. Telia confessed that he had taken too many drinks, but protested that he had no intention of trying to serve the papers, even had he encountered the proper person. A fine of $lO was imposed. F. R. Laverty, 193 6 Briggs street, was fined $3 yesterday for disobeying the traffic instructions of an officer at Third and Walnut streets. George Brown. 128 Baum street, was fined $3 for violation of a traffic ordinance.

DO you know what it means to find yourself at the end of a good, hard day's work with nothing to smoke? You women-folk ask your men about that feeling. You men—remember the last time you were caught without the "makin's" or a grain of tobacco. Now think of Uncle Sam's fighters in France, out there in the thick of things fighting your battles. You men and women of Harrisburg don't let them go smoke-hungry. They're fighting a good fight—see to it that they have at least this bit of comfort. Figure yourself, or someone you love, standing in a trench with death jufct around the corner most of the time, and then when relief comes, digging into the tobacco pouch and find it empty.
