IS or gas whom you all know is authorized to .say to every rehumatic sufferer in this vicinity that if two bottles of Allenrhu, the sure con queror of rheumatism, does not stop all agony, reduce swollen joints and do away with even the slightest twinge of rheumatic pain, he will gladly return your money without comment. Allenrhu lias been tried and tested for years, and really marvelous re sults have been accomplished in the most severe cases where the suffering and agony was intense and piteous and where the patient was helpless. Allenrhu relieves at. once. Imme diately after you start to take it the good work begins. It searches out the uric acid deposits, dissolves the secretions and drives rheumatic poison out of the body through the kidneys and bowels. It's marvelous how quickly it acts. Blessed relief often comes in two days, and even in cases where the suffering is most painful all traces disappear in a few days. Mr. James 11. Allen, the discoverer of Allenrhu, who for many years suf fered the torments of acute rheuma tism, desires all sufferers to know that he does not want a cent of any one's money unless Allenrhu decisive ly conquers this worst of all dis eases, and he has instructed George A. Gorgas to guarantee it in every in stance. KILLS PAIN IN 5 MINUTES Agony of Rheumatism and Gout, .Neuralgia, Lumbago, Chest Colds and Sore Throat Ended in Half the Time it Takes Other Remedies.

Hot Alkaline Water Better Than Medicines To Flush Kidneys Doctor says rh*ti:iintinm, uric acll, kiilnc.v nnd lilmtder disorders must naturally result whenever tlie ItlooU ix not sufficiently alka line to kern the uric acid dis solved. Tiny, sharp eryntals then Krlnd about In the veins and lodge In joints. Uric acid, like other acids, is imme diately neutralized by any strongly alkaline liquid. Uric acid crystals arc also thus dissolved just as sugar crys tals ara dissolved by water or snow crystals melted by heat. This, of course, is elementary chemistry, but it is truly astonishing how few people, excepting the medical profession, un derstand that the water we drink irust necessarily reach the kidneys by lirst being absorved into the blood, and if the water is strongly alkaiins it thoroughly flushes the kidneys when being expelled, taking with it all the irritating acids or impurities it has neutralized, dissolved and absorbed while in the blood. This is the secret L waters of sucli world - famous live, for all' i Typical specimens of these waters uric aeid cry lit tils are very hiishly in a icnl fled, No strongly alka- I wonder they hurt! line, but visits to the springs are no longer | considered necessary. In fact, due to I war, some of the best springs are no longer available even to the very wealthy who used to travel thousands of miles to visit them and receive benefits which now can be produced so much more easily at home. You can prepare alkaline mineral water similar both in composition and effects, by simply dissolving in a tumbler of plain hot water, a level teaspoonful of the ordinary relined alkia saltrates, (powder form) which any druggist can supply at little cost. It is a stan dard compound which is kept in stock for physicians' prescriptions and pro duces a very pleasant tasting drink. Take a tumblerful before breakfast, and. when convenient, once or twice during the day. The pains, aches and other bad symptoms* disappear almost as though by magic, just as they do when sufferers visit one of the famous hot mineral springs with all the loss of time and heavy expense which such a journey entails. Remember that uric arid when in liquid (not crystal) form cannot be painful and is soon filtered out of the blood. Among local drug gists Keller's Drug Store, George A. Gorgas and J. Nelson Clark have been found on inquiry to keep the relined alkia saltrates compound always in stock, so it will prove a simple matter for anyone interested to try this re markable treatment which soon cleanses and stimulates the body's great filters and blood refiners (the kidneys and liver) so they commence working properly again.—Advertise- ment.

There is approximately twenty four feet of water in the reservoir now. and with the assistance of the electric pump which may be start ed to-day, Commissioner Hassler said he believes a sufficient supply can be kept in the mains. The wa ter being pumped into the city mains by Steelton and Dauphin plants may be shut off in a day or two, depending upon the progress of repair work at the pumping sta tion. City officials repeated the warn ings to residents and manufactur ing plants not to waste any water because of the famine which may result. Commissioner Hassler in speaking of the situation said repe tition of the wastage during the last few weeks may mean another clos ing order for manufacturing plants. Work on Main With fair weather again to-day! work on the ditch for the sixteen incli main from the electric pump was resumed. It is hoped to have the trench ready for the pipe when it reaches the city. All arrange ments for using the electric pump with the temporary cight-inch line have been completed, but the con crete base had not set at a late hour yesterday, delaying plans for start ing it. Repairs to the 12.000,000-gallon pump which broke last November, will be completed in about two weeks. The big casting has been placed and will be enclosed in con crete. During the time this work is be ing done other minor repairs will te finished so that the pump can be put in operation probably by February 9. 27,OIK).000 Gallons Daily After the big pump is started p.sain the permanent connection for the electric machine will be made. Harrisburg then will have four pumps with a total capacity of about 27,000,000 gallons daily as follows: Two old pumps built in 1874, 10,- 000, COO gallons. New pump built in 1902, 12,000,- 000 gallons. New electric pump, 5,000,000 gal lons. It is planned also to make chang es on the two old pumps now run ning so that the capacit. of these machines will lie increased. It is likely that monthly tests of all the equipment will be made so that any parts in need of repair will be dis covered and all the pumps will be reedy for any emergency use. MRS.

I MUST UNITE TO - DEFEAT KAISER, SOLDIERS TOLD ' i 1 Former President Taft, Ad- ' dressing Camp Meade Men, ; Is Confident of Victory ' ] Camp Meade, Md., Jan. 29.—Ex- President Taft delivered two stir- ' ring lectures here yesterday, one ] before an audience of officers and , the other to a crowd of enlisted men . that filled every inch of the big Y. M. C. A. auditorium. Mr. Taft said that he hoped to , see 5,000,000 American soldiers in the trenches. He said: "I know that they will fight side ; by side with France and England and with Italy, too, to crush William Hohenzollern and his Potsdam crew, who has been upholding the doctrine of blood and iron. There are the men who believe that obligations of morality, decency, honor and hu manity must be brushed aside ,if they interfere with the advance of 'kultur' that 'kultur' which as sociates the cherubim'and seraphim with Zeppelins." Mr. Taft said that while the Allies might feel a little discouraged "be cause we haven't sent our men over there as quickly as they wanted them," he felt sure everything would turn out all right. "Remember that we are neither Republicans nor Democrats now, we are Americans. Remember that democracies are arrayed against an autocracy William Hohenzollern and his Potsdam gang. Of course, there are Austria, Bulgaria and Tur key. but they are mere tools in this fight. England and Italy have kings, but the kings there have no more power in directing the policies of their nations than William Jennings Bryan and our two ex-Presidents have in guiding the policies of this country." Mr. Taft said that there are some people here who clamor so much for peace that they will try to paralyze the patriotic nerve by whispering treasonable thoughts. In referring to the Senator LaFollette's opposi tion to the war the ex-President said: "It isn't proper to call a man names no matter what your opinion of him may be."

CONTROL OF USE OF FOODSTUFFS NOW NECESSARY Legislation Needed to Effect Food Saving Essential to Rationing Allies Washington, Jan. 29.—Extension of the provisions of the Lever act to include control of the distribu tion, manufacture ai\d preservation of foodstuffs is advocated by Food Administration Hoover in a letter to Representative Anderson, of the House Agricultural Committee, made public to-day. Mr. Hoover's ideas of legislation necessary to the effect the food sav ing essential to the proper rationing of the allies are given In reply to proposals contained in a draft of food bill recently .submitted by Mr. Anderson to the food administrator. The extension of the measures of the I .ever act, Mr. Hoover says, should include: "Control of distribution in order that all classes and localities may fair alike and that unnecessary con sumption should be prevented. "Control of use of foodstuffs in food manufacturies with a view to limiting the less essential manufac tures. "Control of commodities critically necessary for the production and preservation of foodstuffs in order to prevent great losses of military sacrifices." In addition to the increasing of wheatless and meatless days and re ducing the per cent, of wheat in (lour steps virtually taken already by the food administration, Mr. Anderson's bill proposed licensing of public eating places and the limit ing of food served to them. In '..his connection Mr. Hoover said: "While it is vitally necessary to regulate the consumption of food in public eating places, they con sume on various estimates, from twelve to twenty per cent, of the to- tal foodstuffs and if they wer* re duced out of all reason they would not Bolve the problem. "It appears to me that we attack the non-essential uses of foodstuffs and that we should at tack the points of unnecessary con sumption of foodstuffs. By these means we can place the burden where it belongs—on the luxuries and greedy and not upon the poor. This implies some further measures of control in distribution and in non-essential use."
