STEELTON AND NEARBY TOWNS SNOW HAMPERS " ! COLLECTIONS Unable to Gather Garbage' and Ashes on Account of Snow in the Streets Garbage and ush collections have been held up for more than a week <>n account of the snow-filled streets, E. C. Henderson, chairman of tbo .highway committee of Council, said this morning:. Many complaints ro ' 1 eing made to the highway committee ! members, police and at the Council ihartber. Mr. Henderson said that everything was being done to haul the refuse away but It was impossible to make any collections on account of the heavy snow on all the borough i streets. It Is rather difficult for the | trucks and teams te make collections ' on many of the streets when there Is no snow, a committeeman said, on | account of the steep hills. Officials in charge of the work re- : quested the residents to put up wltn I a little inconvenience until It ip pos- I sible to make collections. Complain- I ing will bring no results, Mr. Hen- J derson said, and as soon as it Is pos- ; sible the collection schedule will be J resumed with unlimited efforts. As soon as the weather opens up | the auto truck and as many men and teams as can be obtained will be placed in use to relieve the situation.

H. C. Kennedy, or any other good druggist, will sell you a bottle of Hyomei (liquid), start to breathe it and notice how quickly it clears out the air passages and makes the entire head feel line. Hyomei used regularly will end ca tarrh, coughs, colds, bronchitis or asthma. A complete outfit, including a hard rubber pocket inhaler and bot tle of Hyomel, coats but little.

In the event of a special session being called the writs for special elections to fill vacancies must be issued lifteen days before the time fixed for holding such elections. Mr. McClain is also advised that there Is no vacancy in the twenty second district, Lackawanna county, because the Attorney General has held that there Is nothing in the constitution to prevent Senator Lynch from accepting position of su perintendent of the State Institution for the Criminal Insane at Farview, which is held nof a civil office under the Commonwealth, but a place of employment under a corporation created by the Commonwealth as one of Its agencies for the relief of the Insane.
