Physician In Charge of Home
For Young Men Uses New
Remedy For Liquor Habit
With Astonishing Success
Treatment Can Be Given Secretly.
Aew York: Wives and mothe-s
throughout the land will be glad to
know tnaf Tescum Powders, the new
remedy for the liquor habit, has stood
the test of a investigation
by Doctor Conner, A Massachusetts
physician. Dr. Conner. 'vh is a
graduate of the College of Phys'"ians
and Surgeons of Baltimore with JA
tensive hospital experience at the
Hopkins Hospital and nearly twenty
years of practice, is now in charge of
the "White Star," a home for young
men. In this home a part of the plan
is to give the young men good social
surroundings and entertainment. Some
of the boys are addicted to drink. His
experience is most interesting and
convincing. Here is his report: "Some
weeks ago In discussing with a busi
ness man one of the evils we have to
combat, namely the drink habit, he
mentioned Tescum and the wonderfu' l
cures that had been effected through
its use. When I returned to the home
after my interview I found upon mak
ing inquiry that one of our boys knew
all about 'Tescum,' having used it
while in New York and through its
use rid himself of the liquor habit.
He tells me that since using the rem
edy six months ago he has not taken

he was a confirmed drunkard. I began
using Tescum on five of our very

results followed. Not one of the five
has shown any signs of alcoholisn;

their word of honor they have not
taken a single drink of liquor since

treatment. Their physical condition

SHEEP MAKE GAIN I

Interesting Comments Made
By State Officials on the i
Livestock Reports
State Dep^rtni^iit
crop and stock
I jWjnLjQQQV reporters in the
townships in the
' .a ■"nf sheep will show
I from 20,000 to 25,000 head, horses
I will not decline in number nearly as
| much as feared and that there will
i be fewer hogs, at the end of the year
| than at the beginning. These re-
I ports arc based on information ob
; tallied at first hand from farmers
t and are used in making up the stat
| istics.
The sheep increase movement,
| which began two years ago, has
| taken big strides all over the state
| and when the new dog law becomes
| operative on New Year's day, re
quiring dogs to be penned tip at
night it is believed that in agricul
tural counties like Lancaster, Berks,
Washington, Greene, Susquehanna
and Clearfield that there will be a
marked gain in sheep reported.
Many purchases have been made in
other states and farmers have kept
the ewes. The fears regarding de
cline of the number of horses have
not materialized, as farmers appear
to have refused attractive prices of
| fered and thereNias been more at
! tention given to breeding. The olli
j cials here comment upon the fact
that horses have apparently not de
creased in spite of the growth of
motor vehicle use on farms and in
rural districts.
To Fill up Force—Steps to enlist
men to fill vacancies in the state po
lice troops will be taken this week,
men having been summoned from
the waiting list. Where policemen
| go into federal service they have to
| obtain leaves of absence if they wish
to retain their connection with the
1 force. The men enlisted this fall
| have been undergoing intensive
| training at the barracks and some
|of them have been on substation
| duty.
j Compensation Rule —The State
Compensation Board has ruled in
the case of Wilson vs. Owls' Club,
Pittsburgh, that an employe of
such an establishment returning to
the clubhouse after having made a
deposit of money for the club was
injured in the course of his em
ployment, and his dependants are en
titled to compensation for injury oc
curring to him at that time. The
case is one which will probably gov
ern in a number of claims as de
-1 tenses have been made from time to
time that absence from the place of
employment could not be considered
as coming within the scope of the
act. The Board will bold hearings
! this month in Wilkes-Barre, Scran
! ton, Harrisburg, Philadelphia and
i Pittsburgh.
I>raft Men Warned—Provost Mar
shall General Crowder's warning to
I registrants under the draft law who
have changed their place of resi
dence that they must communicate
immediately with their local boards
is being brought to attention of local
draft authorities by the state draft
headquarters. Failure to give notice
! of change of address may result in
i loss of right to claim exemption or
! discharge. The shipment of the
! questionnaires for men of draft age
'will begin soon.
Growth—Big increases in the
I amount of capital authorized for
building and loan associations and 1
| rechartering of associations at!
[amounts of capital far beyond the j
j sums for which they were granted i
. originally. The number of associa- '■
tions has jumped this year morej
than usual and it is believed at the
Capitol that the record will show as!
many if not more incorporations of!
that kind than for a long time, while,
the capitalization authorized either'
on incorporation or by vote of stock- i
holders will be high in the millions. j
Philadelphia continues to be the cen-I
ter of the associations, some of;
! which have increased capital author- i
j ization to $2,000,000 or $3,000,000
! and one or two to $5,000 000. Pitts-I
j burgh ranks second in the number j
! of its associations with the Chester]
i city district, Allentown, Bethlehem,'
j Scranton and Reading coming well
up.
Hard "Soft" Drinks —Agents ofi
the State Dairy and Food bureau!
j have been looking into the alleged j
"soft" drinks being sold in the soft!
coal region of Central Pennsylvania. I
Some time ago several drinks
sampled were found to be chiefly
"hard" cider, while others have an
j alcoholic content that rivals gin.
Some of the products also sold in
Berks county under the guise of non
alcoholic beverages have been very
strong. District attorneys are being
asked to prosecute in each county
where discoveries are made.
I'sN of Cereals—Cereal foods, upon
which people of Pennsylvania will
have to depend more and more dur
ing the war, should be thoroughly
cooked and the wisest way to pre
pare some of the breakfast dishes Is
to make it into cakes or some other
form, although porridge is a more
palatable way. The Important part'
about serving cereals is to see that
they arc in a form which requires
chewing. Too much milk or cream
should not be added. Mastication is
essential. These are points brought
out by Dr. Samuel G. Dixon, state
commissioner of health in his week
ly health talk. , '
New Kpeineer Here —John Hays
Smith, for years a resident of Pitts
burgh. and a graduate of Cornell
University, hae been appointed nn
assistant engineer of the State Pub
lic Service Commission. Mr. Smith
was for seven years with the West
inghouse interests and was for six
years at Milwaukee, two of them in
charge of the Milwaukee electric
system. He was also one of the edi
tors of the Electrician nd the Elec
trical Age. The last four years he
has been a consulting electrical en
gineer.
Big Tract Offered —Reports on the
first large tract of land to be offered
to the state for a forestry reserva
tion since the establishment of the
Somerset county reserve will be
made to the State Commission this
week. The tract Is in Somerset and
adjoining counties and will form
part of the western watershed sys
tem.

WAR MINISTER'S RESIGNATION
Madrid, Spain.—Great pressure
was brought to bear on General
Primo de Rivera as already cabled
to the Christian Science Monitor, to
induce him to withdraw his resigna
tion as Minister of War. but without
success. Twenty-two generals called
upon him and intimated that they
were In full agreement with his dis

Get at the Real Cause—Take
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets
That's what thousands of stomach 1
sufferers are doing now. Instead of j
taking tonics, or trying to patch up a
poor digestion, they are attacking the
reel cause of the ailment —clogged
liver and disordered bowels.
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets arouse
the liver in a soothing, healing way.
When the liver and bowels are per
forming their natural functions, away
goes indigestion and stomach troubles.
If you have a bad taste in your
mouth, tongue coated, appetite poor,
lazy, don't-care feeling, no ambition or
energy, troubled with undigested foods,
you should take Olive Tablets, the
substitute for calomel.
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets arc a
purely vegetable compound mixed with
olive oil. You will know them by their
olive color. They do the work without
griping, cramps or pain.
Take one or two at bedtime for quick
relief, so you can eat what you like.

and pheasants. If sufficient quantities
of the latter game bird can be ob
tained are under way at the office
of the State Game Commission and
some 1 purchases have already been
made. The birds are being bought
only after examination so that good
healthy stock Is procured and the
greatest attention is being paid to
the districts from which they are se
cured so that when turned loose they
may be Jn favorable territory.
Most of the purchases made have
been of wild turkeys, some of them
from neighboring states, where good
stock has been found and they are
sent to the state game preserves
where they are inspected and grad
ually turned loose. Some of the

birds were In good condition in ad
vance of the turkey season, but the
bulk of them will cqme in later and
If weather conditions are not favor
able will be held back until spring.
Good results are expected to be
obtained as the Game Commission
has been very successful in propa
gating turkeys In the past, notably
in the Juniata valley and southern
county districts.
The selection o< the pheasants Is
being made with care as they are
a hard bird to raise and experience
has taught that they have enemies
which must be guarded against until
they are thoroughly settled. The
birds bought thus far have stood the
trips well and will be turned loose
in favorable country. It is believed
that with care some districts may be<
stocked for next year's hunting:.
Outside of these two kinds of
game the state authorities are not I
doing very much at present, but have
lines out to buy considerable stock
during the winter.
Dr. Joseph Kalbfus, secretary of
the Slate Game Commission, says
that the best way to prevent exter
mination of the ruffed grouse will be
for the counties to ask that closed
seasons be established. "We have
already many inquiries on this sub
ject and sentiment is getting around
that way. Eight counties are now
closed to Krouse shooting and we
will probably have many more be
fore long," said he.
