    48 MORE MEN
RALLY TO COLORS
Parade Monday Night Ex
pected to Add Many More
Recruits From City ,
Forty-eight men enlisted In the
TTnlted States Army yesterday at the
Harrisburg recruiting station. Sev
enteen of thesewerecolored. Thirteen
i-ame in a body and they were sent on
to camp. Recruiting has been gc' J
on this week at a rapid rate. Yester
day while a very good day, was be
low the standard set Monday, when
lifty-three signed up. The effect of
the various recruiting rallies held in
some of the principal cities and
towns within immediate distance
have been felt. Rookies are answering
the call in large numbers and this
district is making a successful effort
to top the districts in the country.
Orders were received at the local
station to-day, stating that all men
who now enlist in the infantry must
l>e sent to the camp at Columbus,
Ohio. Previously the men have been
sent to Gettysburg. The reason for
the change is said to be that the gov
ernment is planning to send all in
fantry in this district south and the
proximity of the Columbus camp will
aid the movement of the troops.
l'araile Monday Night
Lieutenant R. W. I-esher, who is
in charge of the local office and Ser
jeant John Blake, his chief assistant,
have great expectations of the big
parade which is to be held next Mon
day night to stimulate enlistment
Complete arrangements have been
made for the parade and Indications
are that it will be the biggest in the
history of Harrisburg. Practically
every organization and band in the
city have expressed an intention to
march, and the city officials will also
l>e on hand to add to the event.
The recruiting drive has brought
many men from upper Dauphin
county, and among those that enlist
ed yesterday are the following:
George A. Boyer, 330 Boyd street,
Harrisburg, tleld artillery: Merritt L.
Housholder, 1463 Market street, Har
risburg. medical department: Curlee
J.ittlejohn. stevedore, General Grant
Smith, stevedore, Elliott Mosley,
stevedore, Robert Spencer and James
Dyer, Steelton, stevedore.
Lieutenant Lesher and Sergeapt
Blake attended a big recruiting rally
held in Reading yesterday. It was the
biggest vally ever held In that city
and both the local officers gave short
talks on the record of the Harrisburg
station. Reading is in this district
and figures given proved that the
Harrisburg district was the leading
district in the entire country. Since
recruiting started in this city 11,500
men have enlisted out of a total pop
ulation of 1,700,000.

Lcona Thompson, of 'Oh Boy,'
Saving All Her Kisses For
the Man She Marries
w k J
i
_- -
Few people would believe that the
stage had an actress who had never
been kissed, yet Miss Leona Thomp
son, who plays the part of Jackie
Sampson in "Oh. Boy," which comes
to the Orplieum. \\ ednesday, mati
nee and night. October 31, solemnly
declares that she has never been kiss
ed except by her father and mother.
To substantiate Miss Thompson s
statement, her mother, who always
travels with her, says that she is posi
tive her daughter has never been
kissed, and what is more she has
been brought up by her parents to
avoid kissing.
"It is an absolute fact." declared
Miss Thompson, "that I have never
been kissed by any member of the op
posite sex except my own father. Even
when 1 was a little kiddie. I can re
member friends of our family offer
ing me candy if I would turn up my j
childish face and get a kiss on the
cheek, but as much as I liked candy,
even in those days I refused to barter
my kisses for sweetmeats. As I grow I
older the boys and girls at school in
dulged in kissing games at their lit
tle parties, but I steadfastly refused
to play any of them.
"In the last act of "Oh, Boy," ac
cording to the stage business. Charles
Knowlden, who plays the part of Jim
Marvin, has to take me in his arms
and give me a kiss. When we came
to this scene at rehearsal I complain
ed to F. Ray Comstock and William
Elliott, and they agreed with me that
I no girl should be kissed against her
j will, therefore, all Mr. Knowlden
does now is to take me In his arms
and try to kiss me, but I refuse to
1 let him.
"I don't like kissing: I think it is
an unsanitary habit. When the day
comes that I get married I will cer
tainly let my husband kiss me, but
until that happy day does come I pro
pose to remain unkissed."

Madge Kennedy, America's Greatest Comedienne, in
'Baby.Mine, Colonial, Thursday, Friday and Saturday
The first comedy offering of Gold
wyn Pictures, Margaret Mayo's "Baby
Mine," that opens a three-day - en
gagement at the Colonial Theater to
morrow, introduces a new star to mo
tion pictures. She is Madge Kennedy,
the famous comedienne of "Twin
Beds," "Fair and Warmer," and other
stage productions that have been big
successes. Miss Kennedy plays the
role of Zoie in the picture presenta
tion of the comedy, which in stage
barrel of apples and hears the pirates,
who are on board disguised as nonest
sailors, plot the death of them all.
You see the mutiny on board, and the
defense of the stockade against the
pirates! Jim Hawkins escapes to the
good ship Hispaniola, where he fights
on the rolling craft to a successful
finish.
Then there is the search for the
treasure, the finding of the skeleton,
the marooned sailor, whom Jim
Hawkins meets, and a host of other
thrills.
The very name "Treasure Island"
brings to your mind burled jewels and
gold, pirates with gold earring and
pigtales, the sight of a wicked craft
on the tossing sea, with the black flag
aloft, the clash of cutglass; the old
iron chest filled with treasure that
you must have a chart to find, and
the marooned sailor on a lonely island
left behind by his swash-buckling
comrades.
At the Orpheum next Monday night,
the musical revue, "Odds and Ends of
1917" will be pre
"Odd and sented. After a
Ends of 1017" couple of weeks on
tour, this organiza

Marjorie Poir, Übert Carlton, Jack
Edwards, Joseph Maddern, John Birch,
Winifred Dunn, Maxine Brown, Eli
nor Dayne, Margaret Adair and a

Kldn"' mer Kids," which
will be the attrac
tion at the Orpheum next Tuesday,
matinee and night, presented under
the direction of Gazzolo, Gatts and

each one surpassing the other in at
tractiveness, and the fashionably
gowned beauty chorus adds to the
beauty of the stage pictuTes. One

SAVE YOUR HAIR
AND BEAUTIFY IT
WITH 'DANDERINE'
Spend a few cents! Dandruff
disappears and hair stops

Try this! Hair gets beautiful,

few moments.
If you care for heavy hair, Ihat
glistens with beauty and is radiant
with life; has an incomparable soft
ness and is fluffy and lustrous try
Danderine.
Just one application doubles the
beauty of your hair, besides it imme
diately dissolves every particle of
dandruff; you cannot hav£ nice,
heavy, healthy hair if you have dan
druff. This destructive scurf robs
the hair of its luster, its strength and
its very life, and if not overcome it
produces a feverishness and itching
of the scalp; the hair roots famish
loosen and die; then the hair falls
out fast. •
If your hair has been neglected and
is thin, faded, dry, scraggy or too
oily, get a small bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine at any drug store or toilet
counter for a few cents; apply a little
as directed, and ten minutes after
you will say this was the best in
vestment you ever made.
We sincerely believe, regardless of
everything else advertised, that if you
desire soft, lustrous, beautiful halt
and lots of it—no dandruff—no itch
ig scalp and no more falling hair—
you must use Knowlton's Danderine.

Bid For Women at
Weekly Burlesque Shows
Byway of popularising the attend
ance of women at the weekly bur
lesque shows at the Orpheum, the
management of that theater has offer
ed 200 matjnee seats at ton cents each
to women. While the weekly bur
lesques have never been exclusively
for men, the custom in Harrisburg has
been that very few women attended
these performances. Following the
recent agitation as to whether the
burlesques were proper entertainment
for the city, the management sought
to prove the fact that the perform
ances were not unclean by urging
women to attend and pass judgment.
Lrfist week the ipatlnee audience was
liberally sprinkled with women, and
to-morroV's special offer of ten-cent
seats for womeil is .made with a view
of getting the Women of the city ac
quainted with the burlesque form of
entertainment.
"Harrisburg Is one of the very few
cities in the country where burlesque
has been considered a show for men
only," says a statement issued by the
management. "This has not been be
cause women were refused admission,
but because of custom. The claim that
burlesque is an improper form of
amusement because women did not at
tend. brought forth the effort on the
part of the theater to induce women
to attend the shows and thus see for
themselves that there is nothing vul
gar or suggestive about them.
"Irfist week the women responded
to the invitation of the theater to wit
ness the burlesque show, and those
who attended found nothing in the
show to condemn. They found it to
be just what the theater has con
tended, a cheap musical comedy af
fording satisfactory entertainment to
those who are not so fortunate as to
be able to count themselves among
the regulars at $2 shows.
"It Is the hope of the Orpheum
management that the burlesques will
become as popular among women
theatergoers as they are among the
men. This probably would be the
best proof that we are not running
indecent performances. Women at
tend the burlesques in almost every
other city." -

WHEN DO WE DIE?
Investigation of the Question
has interested Scientists
Practically speaking, many people
actually begin to die years before they
ctase to live. Many times you see a
comparatively young person with
shrunken features and pallor that
you might expect to find fn a hospital
ward. That unfortunate person is
suffering from impoverished blood
and every vital organ of the body be
gins to die the moment the blood
becomes impoverished.
OR. CHASE'S BLOOD ANO NERVE
TABLETS have been prepared to
feed the blood the elements it lacks
ami feed it quickly. The blood needs
Iron. Or. Chase's Blood and Nerve
Tablets contain Iron In a most active
and condensed form, so compounded
with Nu-x Vomica. Gentian and other
blood and nerve builders, that it can
be assimilated or absorbed directly.
When In perfect health the blood
gradually draws these elements from
the food you eat. but when the blood
becomes impoverished, it must have
moro direct nourishment.
You should weigh yourself before
taking Dli. CHASE'S BLOOD AND
NERVE TABLETS and noto your
I daily increasing weight.
For sale at all druggists. Price
