ROBBERS WORK
AT CAMP HILL
Series of Small Thefts in Dif
ferent Parts of Town
on Sunday Night
Camp Hill, Pa., Oct. 16.—Robbers
entered-several homes in the borough
on Sunday night and got away with
some loot. It has been less than a
year since some persons conducted a
series of robberies in the borough
that kept residents on edge for sev
eral months.
Small change and several valuable
rings were secured at the home ot
Willis C. Kunkle. in Hamilton street.
Entrance was gained by a back door.
The house was ransacked from top to
bottom, the intruders emptying the
contents of every drawer in the house
on the floor.
More loot was secured at the home j
of S. E. Brunner. near Heyd street. j
Gaining entrance by removing a pane
of glass from a rear window, the rob- \
bers had a lunch on cake found in !
the kitchen, and then proceeded to.
ransack the home. Money and jew- !
elry were taken. A buffet was pried >
open with a sharp-edged tool.
Noticing unusual flashes of light in 1
the house, W. C. Enterline and Dr. i
W. F. Kendall, two residents, pro- j
reeded to conduct an investigation, j
When the pair neared the house they '
heard a whistle and a man appeared '
at the rear window. A light was
turned on him and the pair of in
spectors got a good view of the man.
The intruder tired three shots and ran
at full speed down Main street to
wards White Hill.
The robberies of last year continued I
for several months. At that time a I
vigilance committee was appointed j
and special detectives, with county
officials, tried to make arrests, but
the robbers could not be located.
Officials are running down clues in
this series of robberies.

of the "Buy a Home" campaign
which was inaugurated last year at

While no definite action was taken
[it is understood many of the Harris

j cussing the campaign the present
I shortage or houses which can be

cellor Miclmelis was the leading
theme at 1 the opening session of the
Socialist convention at Wurzburg,
Bavaria, Sunday, at which Philipp
Scheidemann, the majority Social
ist leader in the Reichstag, was a
speaker. Friedrich Ebert, a Socialisv
member of the Reichstag, assailed
those members of the party who at
tempt to prolong the war.
In his speech at the Wurzburg
covention Herr Ebert. president of
the German Socialist party, said
speedy conclusion of peace was a
vital necessity for workmen in all
countries and that the policy of the
mailed fist would disappear after
the frightful horrors of the war.
"If a ballot were taken to-day,"
he added, "nine-tenths of the people
would approve peace by agreement."
Herr Scheidemann. referring to
the Capelle naval inVident, said that
unfortunately it could not be dis.
Cussed in public.
"The fact is," he continued, "that
i thej wanted to catch all who were
connected with, similar incidents,
thej would have to take action
against 300 persons simultaneously.
Every day soldiers come to us with
complaints and we have opened a
special bureau to investigate them
The main thing is not to talk or
write about grievances but to com-
I bat them."

Give Cour, Upset Stomach
A Magnesia Bath, Says Doctor, To
Neutralize Acid—Stop Indigestion
To Drive Kan nntl Illont from norty
MuHt Keep .Stomach Sweet m.ri Clc
"No man or woman ,who suffers
from sick, sour, upset and gassy
stomach, with indigestion, heart
burn and dyspepsia, can make a
mistake by giving the stomach an
occasional internal bath with a
little Bisurated Magnesia," says a
well-known authority. Ninety per
cent, of all digestive disorders are
caused by "too much acid" in the
stomach. While nature provides
hydrochloric acid as one of the
digestive fluids, a great many
stomachs develop too much acid
which irritates and inflames the
stomach walls, causing partially
digested food to sour and ferment
and develop gas, bloat, nausea,
heartburn and painful digestion
It is a mistake to treat such
troubles with artificial digestants
like pepsin. This merely forces
the sour, acid stomach contents
into the intestines. Instead the
acid in the stomach should be
neutralized with an internal Mag
nesia bath.
