    Coal Shortage Closes
East End Mills of the
Bethlehem Steel Co.
' 'wing to the coal shortage op
eration of the East End Mill of the
letlilehem Steel Company plant at
Sieelton has been curtailed. The
mills were closed this morning until
Monday. During the time the de
partment is shut down, officials
announced electrical repairs will
be made. This is the lirst curtailment
in operation caused by the fuel
shortage. During the recent cold
snap it was compulsory to close down
several of the smalled departments
for several hours at a time, but not
to any great extent. Officials of the
plant said to-day that the fuel short
age is not serious at the present time
but n,o telling when it will be.

tween representatives of the city and
property owners.

break in the heating apparatus at
the courthouse It was necessary to j
hold court in the City Council oham- j
ber. Judge S. J. M. McCarrell pre- (
sided. President Judge George Kun
kel is confined to his homp by a
slight illness.
One of the tipstaves in court to

BEAUTIFUL HAIR
THICK, WAVY, FREE
FROM DANDRUFF
Draw a moist cloth through hair
and double its beauty
• at once.
Save your hair! Dandruff dis
appears and hair stops
coming out.
Immediate? Yes! Certain?—
that's the joy of it. Your hair be
comes light, wavy, fluffy, abundant
and appears as soft, lustrous and
beautiful as a young girl's after an
application of Danderine. Also trv
this—moisten a cloth with a little
Danderine and carefully draw it
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time. This will cleanse
the hair of dust, dirt or excessive
oil, and in just a few moments you
have doubled the beauty of your
hair. A delightful surprise awaits
those whose hair has been neg
lected or is scraggy, faded, dry,
brittle or thin. Besides beautifying
the hair, Danderine dissolves every
particle of dandruff: cleanses, puri
ties and invigorates the scalp, forever
I stopping itching and falling hair, but
what will please you most will be
alter a few weeks' use. when you
see new hair—fine and downy at
Urst—yes—but really new hair grow
ing all over the scalp.
Danderine is to the hair what fresh
showers of rain and sunshine are to
vegetation. It goes right to the roots,
invigorates and strengthens them. It
exhilarating, stimulating and life
producing properties cause the hair
to grow long, strong and beautiful.
Ton can surely have pretty, charm
ing, lustrous hair, and lots of it, if
you will spend a few cents for a bottle
of Krowlton's Danderine from any
drug store or toilet counter and try
it as directed.
BE PRETTY! TURN"
GRAY HAIR DARK
Try Grandmother's Old Favor
ite Recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur.
Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly com
pounded, brings baclc the natural
color and lustre to the hair when
faded, streaked or gray. Years ago
the only way to get this mixture was
to make it at home, which is mussy
and troublesome. Nowadays, by ask
ing at any drug store for "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound." vou
will get a large bottle of this famous
old recipe, improved by the addition
of other ingredients, at a small cost.
Don't stay gray! Try it: Xo one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as_ it does it so naturally
and evenly. You dampen a sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the
gray hair disappears, and after an
other application or two, your hair
becomes beautifully dark, glossy and
attractive.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is a delightful toilet requisite
for those who desire dark hair and
a youthful appearance. It is not in
tended for the cure, mitigaUon or
prevention of disease.

FRIDAY KVENIN<.,
TRUCK LINE IS
PLANNED HERE
TO MOVE FREIGHT
Train Movement Today Is
Hours Behind Regular
Schedule Time
A regular motor truck route for
the delivery of freight to points be
tween Harrisburg, Philadelphia and
New York, is the latest plan con
templated to facilitate delivery of
freight between those cities, and re
lieve the serious railroad freight con
gestion. A meeting of the receivers
and shippers committee, and any
other freight receivers and shippers
in the three cities and intermediate
towns, will be held in the Chamber
of Commerce rooms, in the Dauphin
building, Monday evening. The fea
sability of the plan suggested will be
seriously considered at the meeting
Monday night.
It is pointed out that such a lire>
of motor trucks would be invaluabie
in expending the delivery of middle
weight packages between these three
large trade centers, and from them
to the smaller towns between, and
would relieve the overloaded freight
facilities of the connecting railroads.
It was said this morning that the
plan is the result of repeated sug
gestions of a like nature from the
merchants and manufacturers of
Harrisburg. Information on the ad
visability of the project will be sub
mitted to the businessmen present at
the meeting Monday night.
Trains Are Tied Up
While it is admitted that at the
j present time a line of motor trucks
I would be difficult to operate, yet
there is no sign of any immediate "let
up in the railroad congestion, and the
regularly established freight trucks
would be of great service in reliev
! in R the situation next summer. It'is
understood that the meeting Monday 1
evening is the direct result of sug
gestions of a like nature that have
• emanated from Washington dur'ng
! recent months of the car shortage.
Train movement to-day by regular
I schedules on the Pennsy was an im
possibility. Cold weather and freignt
congestion in the yards at Philadel-1
phia came nearly putting the pas
enger service out of business entire- i
i ly
Xinc Hours I.ate
I It was not a question of trains be
ing from one to two hours late, but
■ six to nine hours back of schedule
j time. The newspaper train due here
! at •i.">s this morning arrived shortlv
before noon. Other trains brought'
papers to this city.
Local officials here handled alii
trains promptly on their arrival but I
could give little help to inquiring
travelers. Passengers out of Harris
burg just had to wait and take the 1
first train that came in. There was
! very little delay here.
Motive power was scarce and all |
; available engines at this terminal 1
were pressed into service. 'Freight
| crews were also kept busy relieving
| the crews held up along the main
l.ne by the congestion at Philadel
phia. One official said "it is tli<>
1 worst jam in my experience and we'
■ Jt:sft have to work until the troubles
I are overcome."

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
GIRLS RETURN
FROM GERMANY
Daughters of Judge Herring,
of Sunbury, Have Been
There Four Years
Sunbury, Pa.. Jan. 4.—Miss Laura
Herring and Miss Mildred Herring,
daughters of former Judge Grant
Herring, returned to Sunbury to-day.
after four years spent in Germany.
They were studying: music there when
the war broke out in 1914 and a year
ago, when it was apparent that the
United States might become em
broiled in the struggle, they began
preparations to return to their native
land. However, they were delayed
at every turn by the German officials,
and it was only after undergoing
many inconveniences and not a few
idignities that they got out of Kai
serland and home byway of Sweden
and England.
Raving spent more than two years
of .tiie war period as residents of
Germany, the Misses Herring have
been able to gather somp concrete
Impressions of conditions in the Ger
man empire. So far as the actual
horrors of war are concerned, they
say. th< only knowledge the people
have of them is whvi a message
comes telling of deaths of loved ones
at the front, and the great shortage
of food supplies and other necessities.
Prussianism is in contioi or every
thing. The Kaiser's word is law and
the people of the country bow to the
will of the German war lord at all
times. Military movements and other
details bearing upon the war are
guarded most closely.

WEST SHORE IN
NEED OF FUEL
No Coal Has Arrived Recently
at Lemoyne, Camp Hill
or New Cumberland
The intense cold weather lias
worked hardships on West Shore
residents, whose coal supplies have
been exhausted. No relief in the
situation is promised in Lemoyne,
New Cumberland and Camp Hill, ac
cording to a report of the West Shore
coal administrator. Unless shipments
arrive this week the situation will
become acute, as many consumers
arc without fuel.
No coal has arrived in Lemoyne
New Cumberland and Camp Hill, It
i reported. Wormleysburg is sup
plied by dealers in Lemoyne and is
also badly in need of fuel. Dealers
advise the borrowing and lending
method for those who are without
any coal. Residents who have a large
supply on hand should lend to thosci
who are not so fortunate is the ad
vice of the dealers and coal adminis
trator.
Churches and school buildings at
the present time are in good shape-
By holding weekly meetings in the
homes of members in several of the
churches the reserve supply has been
saved to some extent. Camp Hill
schools are in the worst shape, hav
ing but a small supply.
Officials of the United Electric
Company said to-day that the supply
of coal at the plant in Lemoyne, al
though not large, was sufficient to
keep the plant in operation for some
time. River coal is used here.
Factories at New Cumberland re
port a medium supply of fuel. Al
though the supply is "not as large as
other years, there is no need for
alarm. . ,

Changed to Prevent Injury
HELP fAME QUICKLY
■ In orde • to prevent injury to him
his employers had to change the
work of Harry Markley, of Steelton,
an employe of the Bethlehem Steel
Company.
"I was so dizzy," said Mr. Mark
ley, "that I was in danger every
minute and it all came from my
stomach. I had an awful taste in
my mouth and my tongue was badly
coated. Friends in the machine shop
of the plant told me to try Tanlac.
I did so and soon the dizzy spells
disappeared and I could safely do the
most dangerous work assigned to me.
Tanlac cleaned my system 'as clean
as a hound's tooth' and I can now
eat anything set out to me."
Tanlac is now being specially in
troduced and explained in Harris
burg at the George A. Gorgas drug
store.
