paid, that in order that their claims
may be properly presented and taken
care of in the distribution of in
creased wages, shop forces will be
organized all over the United States, i

of enlighting the shopmen as to the
advantages of an organization to
take care of their interests. Since
the meetings were held at Altoona. it
is said, that Bellwood shopmen and
other branches have taken out char
ters and report large memberships.
Rheumatic Aches
Drive them out with Sloan's
Liniment, the quick-acting;
soothing liniment that penetrates
without rubbing and relieves the
pain. So much cleaner than
mussy plasters or ointments: it
does not stain the skin or clog
the pores. Always have a bottle
in the house for the aches and
pains of rheumatism, gout, lum

"WAS STIFF
AND SORE
Liver Was Bad—Was
Nervous,"
Says Mr. L. S. Stibbs, 604 Forster
street, Harrisburg. "I was very
nervous, had severe headaches, was
constipated, could not sleep at night
and arose all tired out. the least ex
ertion would exhaust me. I could
not content myself, was miserable
and unsettled all the time.
"After much debating I decided
to try Sanpan, and I surely found
It a wonderful medicine. My nerves
are qpiet, I sleep well, feel rested in
morning, am not constipated and
no road is too long for me."
Sanpan is being introduced at Kel

To Operate Trains on
N. Y. Line by Telephone
The Reading Railway Company is
installing the telephone system on
the New York division for the pur
pose of handling the movement of
trains instead of by telegraph. This
system was adopted on the Atlantic
City division some time ago and is
giving the best of satisfaction. Other
divisions on the Reading are to be
equipped later.
The telegraph department of the
Reading Railway Company is running
a high-tension wire along the line of
the New York division for the pur
pose of supplying current in the op
eration of the Hall automatic signals.
■When this system is completed all
electric batteries will be dispensed
with.

City to Raise Another
SIOO,OOO For Red Cross
The Red Cross War Fund to raise
one hundred million dollars has been
postponed from the week of May 6
to the week of May 20. This an
nouncement was made to-day at
local Red Cross headquarters.
"The date first assigned for the
Red Cross campaign follows the date
for the Third Liberty Loan cam
paign. We want to give the people a
chance to have a little breathing
spell and further, we don't want to
detract in any way from the sale of
Liberty Loan Bonds."
Harrisburg's quota for the cam
paign will be SIOO,OOO. Local Red
Cross officials are confident that the
amount will be raised here very
easily.
Australian Troops Carry
Out Successful Raid
London, March 12. "Australian
troops carried out successful raids
during the night upon hostile posts
east and northeast of Messines," says
tc-day's War Office report. "A
number of Germans were killed and
a few prisoners were taken by us.
Our casualties were light.
"The artillery was active on both
sides during the night southeast of
Armentieres and east and northeast
of Ypres."
For Itching Torture
■' "
There is one remedy that seldom
fails to stop itching torture and relieve
skin irritation and that makes the skin
soft, clear and healthy. #
Any druggist can supply you with
zemo, which generally overcomes all
skin diseases. Acne, eczema, itch, pim
ples, rashes, blackheads in most cases
give way to zemo. Frequently, minor
blemishes disappear overnight. Itching
usually stops instantly. Zemo is a safe,
antiseptic liquid, clean, easy to use and
dependable. It costs only 35c; an extra
large bottle, SI.OO. It will not stain, is
not greasy or sticky and i 9 positively
safe for tender, sensitive skins. r

SHOWS INCREASE

on Sunday; Officials
Are Pleased
Reading officials report that 2,300
cars Qf atnhraclte coal were sent
from the St. Clair yard during the
past twenty-four hours. The freight
and coal trade, too, was very heavy.
On the Reading and Harrisburg divi
sions nearly 17,000 cars were hauled
on Sunday. General Superintendent
W. H. Keffer, who spent several days
at Rutherford with a view of syste
matizing the movement of traffic, re
turned to Reading much pleased with
the good work.
The sudden drop in the tempera
ture late Sunday arternoon and
evening caused the trains to pull
rather har4 and as a result the
movement during the night was slow
and a number of the passenger
trains were delayed.

The Reading Railway Company
transported over the Lebanon Valley
brajich on Saturday and Sunday
6.871 cars. There were eighty-two
trains east and west on Saturday,
and the number of cars handled was
3,671.

Rutherford, eighty per cent, was bi
tuminous coal for the Bethlehem

traffic from the West is showing a
big increase. Heavy trains are com
ing from the Pittsburgh district and
keep all crews busy, day and night.
