Pour this into a pint bottle and fill the bottle with plain granulated sugar eyrup. Shake thoroughly and it is ready for use. The total cost ia about 63 cents and gives you a full pint.—a family sup ply—of a most effectual, pleasant tast ing remedy. It keeps perfectly.

Wayne, Ind, CONSIDER PIGGERY PLAN FOR GARBAGE DISPOSAL A piggery controlled by the bor | ough has been auggestod ns one of the methods which may bo used for garbage disposal in Steelton. . If a piggery Is started It will mean that residents of the borough must keep ashes and garbugo separated. Last night at tho session of council President Nelley said tho Bethlehem Steel Company will not permit the dumping of garbhga on Its property In tho future. Council now Is con fronted with tho problem of finding another method of disposal and if the garbago is to bo fed to pigs ashes and refuse can not bo put in the same receptacle. Councilman McEntee, who attend ed his last session as u councilman, suggested considering the piggery i plan. His motion was favored un animously and a committee consist ing of Borough Engineer William Callaghan and Borough Chemtat M. B. Litch was authorized to investi gate the various disposal methods and report to council. President Nelley referred to the fact that Har rlsburg is considering the piggery plan and said It would be an oppor tunity to get data on that method. Curb Collections Unpopular Curb collections are causing numerous complaints all over the borough, Chairman Henderson, of the highway committee, reported, lie told the other councilman that complaints are frequent because many of tho residents must carry receptacles filled with garbage and ashes through their houses to the curb in order to have the waste col lected. Council was asked'to revise the rules. Councilman McEntee said to this suggestion that those in charge should not listen to all the com plaints. No action was taken in the matter and it is likely that a petition will be presented by taxpayers at the next session. The first month's report of the truck collection of garbage was made by Chairman Henderson. During the month 457 tons were collected which was made up by 180 loads. The cost of removing tho garbage was eighty six cents a ton. In order that the men do better work it was suggested that a bonus system be put into force. No action was taken on this plan. Ordinances and Resolutions Several ordinances and resolutions were acted upon last night. A reso lution prohibiting street fakirs and carnivals from operating in the borougji, fixing the minimum fine at $lO and the maximum fine at SIOO was passed finally. An amendment to the license ordl nuance changing the fee for outside merchants from $5 to $lO a year was passed finally. Councilman Keim, who is a merchant, insisted that this be passed in order to protect the local businessmen. Following the action of the Dau phin County Court ordering a re fund of the fines and costs in tw® borough criminal suits a resolution was adopted. The cause for the re versal was on account of improper information on one charge and a squire acting as a burgess in the other case. The borough engineer reported that satisfactory progress is being made on the intercepting sewer. Up to this time there has been 2,208 feet of the sewer laid.

SATISFACTION OR MONEY BACK Weak nerves rob men and women of all the joy of life and quickly re duce the strong and robust to a condi tion which is pitiable in the extreme. This condition is brought about slow ly and stealthily in the majority of cases, and the poor sufferer fails to realize what is wrong until faulty memory, indecision, lack of desire for work or recreation, insomnia or some other unmistakable symptom In dicates weak nerves. It is then that many people make the big mistake of resorting' to the use of so-called nerve tonics, alcoholic stimulants or drugs. Nothing could be more harmful or more dangerous. The nerves arc weak and exhausted; they need food and nourishment —not drugs that will lash them Into temporary activity. Feed your nerves and they will be come strong again and your health will Improve in consequence. That is the advice of tho present day physi cians and specialists, and the nerve food they recommend is just one 5-gr. tablet of pure bitrophosphate taken during or immediately after every meal. Simple advice, but its excel lence has been proved over and over again, and, as a package containing sufficient bitro-phosphate tablets for two weeks' treatment can be obtained from any druggist at reasonable cost, tho remedy is within the reach of every sufferer from weak nerves. Moreover, the whole risk of the trial is assumed by the manufacturers, for every package of bitro-phosphate tab lets is accompanied by a binding guar antee of satisfaction or money back. It is sold in this city by C. M. Forney, Geo. A. Gorgas, H. C. Kennedy and all good druggists. DECEMBER 1T,"1917. . Lieutenant McEntee in Charge of Hospital Floor In a lette rrecivd by Counoll man T.
