Houdini Has Nothing
on These Hungry Rats
How cun rats get intfi a "rat
proof" desk?
This is the mystery which a county
official at the Courthouse is trying to
solve. He has a desk with metal
sheeting under the drawers, but
the metal sheeting didn't worry the
rats.
Stored in one of the drawers was
part of the official's lunch. At noon
to-day when he opened the drawer,
he found an empty bag with a hole
nibbled through it. The rat or rats
were gone, also the lunch, the metal
sheeting was intact, and the official
is sure he did not lose the key to the
drawer.
Who can explain how the rats got
the lunch?
Ladies Rub Wrinkles
With Amonized Cocoa
And Watch Them Go
Hrnuty doctor Shjm Any Woman May
l.ook Frail 10 to ilO Year* \oungcr
If your skin shows signs of becom
ing wrinkled or (labby, go to any good
druggist and get a little amonized
cocoa and apply this at night over
your entire face and neck; massage it
into the skin with the finger tips for
about two minutes and then wipe off
the surplus with a soft, dry cloth.
Nothing else is required and you will
be surprised to see how quickly it
brightens up your complexion and how
nicely it takes out the wrinkles and
contracts the loose skin and enlarged
pores.
Beauty Doctors say that it is the
only method in the world that will ac
tually remove wrinkles and make old
faces look young and beautiful.
Amonized cocoa costs little, is easy
and delightful to apply, does not pro
mote hair growth and will keep sweet
and fresh indefinitely. Druggists
everywhere are recommending it in
place of face creams and lotions, for
instead of hiding your wrinkles or
complexion defects, it removes them.
This is why many society women,
who would not touch an ordinary cold
cream, are enabled to keep their skin
free from wrinkles and so young and
girlish in appearance. Every lady
who wants to possess a clear, fair
skin, free from wrinkles should Just
try this for a few nights. A delight
ful surprise will await you.—Adver
tisement.
"HAD A

Felt Tired All the
Time,"
Says J. T. Snow, 605 Briggs St.,
Harrisburg. "I did not know a well
day. A sluggish liver had poisoned
my system, my stomach was in a
bad way. I always had heartburn
after eating, and often gas would
press against my heart and pain me.
"I felt tired out all the time, had
no life, and would just have to force
myself to get up in the morning as
I felt that 1 must have more rest.
I was constipated and had catarrh
and all these things had mc gues
sing. I started to take Sanpan and
in a short time I was as good as
new." Sanpan is being introduced

FOI ND TWELVE ON HAFT
Philadelphia, Feb. 27.—The captain
of the ship which rescued the sur
vivors of the sea tragedy reported
by telephone to his agents in this
city that he picked up yesterday
morning the Cherokee's call for help.
He started his ship at' once in the
direction from which the call came.
No trace of the tug could be found,
but a liferaft to which twelve men
were lashed was sighted. The sea
was high at the time and a heavy
gale was blowing and great diffi
culty was experienced in reaching
the raft. When the men were final
ly taken on board, the captain said,
all of them were eitber unconscious
or partly so. The crew worked over
them for hours and finally ten of the
survivors were restored to conscious
ness. Two of them died.
After he had assured himself that
there were no more survivors in the
vicinity, the captain headed his ship
for Philadelphia, reaching here to

When Women
Are Nervous—
Every woman lias days when her
nerves are at the breaking point, I
when irritability and restlessness in
dicate that the enervated nerve cells
of the delicately organized body need
replenishing. Shattered nerves mar
the disposition, the appearance and
retard mental progress. Sleepless
ness exhaustion, indecision, faulty
memory, lack of continuity of
thought, languidness are the natural
results of depleted nerves, and de
pleted nerves are the natural re
sult of excessive drains upon the vi
tality. Then it is a serious and
dangerous mistake to resort to the
use of so-called tonics or drug
stimulants. Weak and exhausted
nerves need food and nourishment
not stimulants that lash them into
temporary activity. The food and
nourishment advised by present day
physicians is just one 6-grain tablet
of pure bitro-phosphate taken during
or immediately after each meal.
Simple advice, but its soundness has
been proven over and over again.
Moreover the remedy is within the
reach of every sufferer from weak
nerves, as a large package of bitro
phosphate tablets, (sufficient for two
weeks' treatment) can be obtained
from Forney, Kennedy, Gorgas, Clark,
or any first-class druggist at reason
able cost and every package is ac
companied by a binding guarantee of
satisfaction or money back.

Quarrels between former lovers
about the return of an engagement
ring after the betrothal was can
celed aren't material for a civil suit
to be tried before a Dauphin county
court.
So one of Cupid's victims learned
to-day when a suit he brought
against r sweetheart'who jilted him
was dismissed, the stern wheels of
justice refusing to take seriously the
perplexing problems of romance.
J. L. Freedman, engaged to be
married, exchanged rings with his
fiancee; then later, when the engage
ment was broken, returned the ring
he received, and wanted the one ho
had given to be returned. The wo
man in the case preferred to keep
the symbol of her betrothal. •
Freedman then resorted to a writ

to the plant department in this city
and in the same year was made
equipment engineer, being appointed
plant engineer in 1913. Mr. Sehultz
plans to leave fqr his new duties at
Pittsburgh in a few days.
Robert C. Glancy was student en
gineer in this city in 1911, following
his graduation front the Massachu
setts Institute of Technology, Boston,
in 1909, and a year at Philadelphia
as student engineer. In 1911 he was
made construction engineer in this
city and later transferred to the
same office at Philadelphia. '
A farewell luncheon was given
Mr. Sehultz at noon by several of his
associates at the Engineers' Club.
ot replevin and the proceedings was
linully listed for trial before twelve
good men and true, who were to de
cide the fate of the engagement ring.
But whn Judge Kunkel was ap
pealed to by the defense on the plea
that the action was not a legal ease
and that a non-suit should be re
corded ended the proceedings, the
court took the same attitude and
said:
"The parties concerned must make
an agreement about the return of an.
engagement ring as the law does not
make it. The court can only look
on the giving of a ring as the sym
bol of a contract. In many eases
where engagements are broken, rings
are not returned and are not even
claimed. If it were the usual cus
tom to return a ring then it might
be implied that a suit could be
brought to get it back.
"In some cases the woman keeps
the ring; in others she spurns it and
returns it. Some men want their
rings back, some do not. Tt is for
the parties to make the terms for
themselves."
In dismissing the jury which had
been called to decide the fate of the
engagement ring, the court explained
the case to the jurors, then added
that in giving an engagement ring
a m#n usually intended it as a gift
never to be returned and that unless
an express agreement had been made
there could be no legal procedure
which might be resorted to by a
man to get back the symbol of his
intention to wed.

Let the Germans Take Us,
Say Russian Soldiers;
Are Tired af Fighting
By dissociated' Press
London, Feb. 27.—1f dispatches
from Petrograd gauge accurately the
situation there, tne Germans are
likely to lind little difficulty in occu
pying the city with trained troops.
Itiissiuu soldiers quite frankly re
rust; to light and say: "We liave had
enough or fighting, ir tlic Germans
come, let tliem. take us."
There is a stiifer attitude among
the workmen from whom, If at all,
resistance to the Germans must
come. Even though for lack of
training their resistance should
prove of little value, they are said
to be enrolling with enthusiasm in
response to the call of the Bolshevik
leaders. The correspondent of the
Daily News, writing Sunday, says:
"Russian troops, almost without
exception, have refused flatly to
fight. A division which was sup
posed ti be defending Narva has ar
rived at Gatchina. Ensign Krylen
ko protested. They replied they did
not intend to fight.
"Immediately the llrst few German
troops nppcured tlic? Russian peas
ant soldiers, who being peasants, not
industrialists, were interested mere
ly in the land question and eared
nothing for the revolution, started
eastward in an uneoiitrolliible miy
threatening to sack ull the towns on
the way. .
"The Russian army was Ger
many's strongest weapon. In driv
ing it towards Petrograd they were
| driving a horde of stampeding cat
| tie which would trample down
everything In its wav. The revo
! lutionary workmen could have put
I up a real tight against the Germans
but they could do nothing against
the Russian army, which must dis
appear before the revolution can be
gin to create any real military force
for itnelf. The workmen of the
towns are eager to fight."
Some correspondents, describing
the bulk of the population as lost In
bewilderment and fipathy, think
such resistance as may he offered
will amount to little. They say no
amount of talk by the Bolshevik
leaders can cover the plain facta of
the situation.
