erage liquor traffic."
Tt is expected that Governor

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.
TO ENGAGE HOUSEKEEPERS

Aid Society of the Harrisburg Hos

HAD A
TORPID LIVER
"Was Weak and
Nervous,"
says Mr. E. Bobinson, 1325 William
St., Harrisburg. I surely was mis
erable. Day after day I drudged
along scarcely able to do my work.
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.
S&npan is being introduced at Kel- j
ler'i. Drug Store, 405 Market St., j
Harrisburg.

LIBRARIANS TO
MEET AT SHORE
Providing Literature For Hoys
nt Front Will Bo Among
Problems Discussed
Atlantic City, X. J.. Feb. S. 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.
