Use Kerosene Burner to Open Sewer Inlets Frozen inlets to storm water sewers is causing trouble in some sections of the city where melting snow forms large pools of water in the streets. The city Highway Department has a force of men at work in -various (lis- I tricts where street grades are low. A large burner, used for asphalt repair wor, is being used to thaw open some of the inlets. Scarcity of kerosene in the city may compel the department to stop using the burner. While th thaw has helped, traffic conditions slightly, Commissioner Lynch reports that many of the ; smaller streets are blocked because ! of the snow which is beiif hoveled from roofs of houses.

A torpid liver and poor stomach hrul weakened me. I was very nerv ous, had headaches and catarrh in head and throat. My appetite was bad and often after eating would suffer with cramps. Th£se pains would get around my heart. I was uure bunged up and could get no relief until I ! saw p. Sanpan ad and startej to take it and it soon did the work and now j I am feeling fine.

The Pennsylvania State Library Associa-1 tion and the New Jersey State library j Association have booked reservations! at the Hotel Chelsea for their annual I convention which will be held on Fri day and Saturday. February 15 and li>. The conventions will bring about! 500 delegates to the shore, the ma-j jority of whom will remain over the week-end. Among the prominent t opirs up for consideration will bo j recommendations on literature for tin boys nt the front, worked through the hospitals, Y. M. C. A. huts und some of the other organizations which are supplying recreation centers for thei soldiers. Many of the librarians are already i in the service in this work, and among' the interesting patera that will i>e| read before the convention will be | several written from France and the I various cantonments in this country! by members of the two organizations. The big demand for appropriate lit- *rature has been one of the biggest problems at the recreation centers, and the librarians hope to work out some systematic plans whereby kin dred associations throughout the na tion may make a special drive for cither funds for subscriptions to popu lar magazines and current literature, or direct contributions of the maga zines and books to be distributed through the proper agencies, accord ing to the committee of arrangements during a visit here yesterday.
