Carmel Transit Co., pleaded at a hearing before Public Service Com missioner Billing,' late yesterday, that it could not enforce an order of the commission to give excess fare certificates for six-cent fares because the trolleymen's union, of which their employes are members, had forbidden it. The question of whe ther such a reason could be held sufficient for not carrying out the order was raised. The original com plaint against the fare, was brought by the miners committee of Mt. Car mel and vicinity' which also com plained that the order for certifi cates was not being carried out. Members of the trolleymen's union intimated to-day that they would "WhatWillWeDo With Him, Boys?"

Tonall Health Talk; A Disordered Liver SIfiNS Til \T CANNOT HE MISTAKEN A bad liver leaves poisonous bile in the blood, which disarranges the whole human system. The complex ion takes on a yellow hue, loss of appetite follows, then a dry cough or a liver chill. There is indigestion, fullness, fermentation, flatulency and an oppression in the stomach. The tongue is coated, the headaches, depressed spirits and spells of weak ness and dizziness. The bowels are constipated and loose by turns. The skin shows the poisonous state blood by pimples, blotches and liver spots. In sympathy with the liver, the' kidneys become clogged and pains in the back and under the shoulder blades occur. Shortness of breath, palpitation of the heart and many other symptoms of liver complaint appear. Do not wait unOl all these symp toms come, before beginning treat ment. The liver must have assist ance, prompt action is necessary to relieve the body of these poisons. The liver and kidneys need to be strengthened and invigorated. Tonall nets promptly on both these great filtering functions, and has a wonderful reputation as an efficient treatment for liver derangement. No poisonous drugs (see Prof. Beck's analysis wrapped with every bottle). Tonall is sold at Gorgas' Drug Store. Harrisburg. Pa., where the Tonall chemist will explain Its merits.

Try This If You Have Dandruff There is one sure way that never falls to remove dandruff completely and that Is to dissolve it. This de stroys it entirely. To do this, Just get about four ounces of plain, ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub It in gently with the finger tips. By morning, most if not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications will com pletely dissolve and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of it, no matter how much dandruff you may have. You will find, too, that all itching and digging of the scalp will stop instantly, and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store. It is inexpensive, and four ounces is all you will need.

A spe cial meeting of the Council of the Church Federation will bo held Mon day evening, April 15, for the pur pose of making formal endorsement of the candidate. Mr. McCoy is well known in Steelton and has been in fluential in building up the Boy Scout move here. The Rev. H. H.

McCoy, of Steelton, for the General Assembly, on a "dry' 1 platform, and calls a special meeting of the Council of the Church Fede ration for Monday evening, April 15, for the purpose of making formal endorsement. Mr. McCoy has the esteem of every one in Steelton, being one of its most popular citizens. He is the president of the Dauphin County Building and Loan Association, an active member of the Municipal Lea gue and chief scoutmaster of the Boy Scouts. In the latter capacity he has tet only effected an organi zation which is the pride of Steelton, but he has exerted an influence among the boy 3 for good which is greatly appreciated by the parents.

He is an elder in the First Beformed Church of Steelton; is treasurer of the con sistory, and for the past ten years has been the efficient superintendent of the Sunday school of that church, making it a 'front lin' school.

Three years ago he was a candidate for the office of bur gess of Steelton. on an independent Republican ticket. He made a splen did fight, and though he was with out political backing of any kind, he not only carried his own ward against the 'machine' by a large ma jority, but came within a hundred votes of winning the election. His strength as shown in that campaign was both a cause for gratification on the part of his friends and a source of amazement on the part of his political opponents, "As Mr. McCoy is a straightfor ward, clean, upright. Christian gen tleman, it is safe to predict that he will have the support of the vo ers of the county pretty generally, irre spective! of party affiliations."

Old Sleuth Is Back on Job, With Whiskers and All Now York—lzzy the Dip was calmly pursuing his chosen profession i of picking poekets. He balanced his ; neat bamboo cane lightly between | his well manicured fingers and look ed scornfully at the old man before ! him. "Izzv the Dip I have you In my power," said the old man. "And who are you?" demanded Izzy. t "Old Sleuth, the famous detective, said tlie cold man calmly removing , his goggles and Rivington street lace I curtains. No, this is not a mental relapse to ! the days when we used to put the jlO cent classics inside of our geog raphies and follow the villain and the hero when we were supposed to be chasing the forty-fifth parallel of latitude around a Taftlike globe. It is a page torn from yesterday's police blotter. Honest Injun! Three men were jostling passen gers in a crowded elevated train that was going over the Williamsburg i Bridge yesterday. In the corner a i harmless looking old man pretended ! to read the music note type of an I Kast Side paper. He wore blue gog : gles and a set of whiskers that would have been the envy of the late Sen ator Pfeffer. Suddenly a green motor- I man tripped up the train at Marcy j avenue with that peculiar hesitation j lick on the air brake that always in | dlcates that the regular motorman i has a day off. The old man with the goggles | seized the three men; yes sir, all of j them at once. At the same time he flashed— j never mind how he held three men ! and flashed anything at the same | time, it's part of the story— a shield | showing that he was a detective. The I men fought, but the old man with j the goggles and the lace curtains ; hung on until a patrolman came to j help him. | Then they landed in the Bedford avenue police station three men who said that they were Isador Chaust of 1041 Bryant avenue,Tho Bronx; Abraham Feldberg of 36 West 113 th and Louis Myers, of 201 Seventh street, Manhattan. W hen all this had been done the old man with the goggles explained that wearing goggles and whiskers was not his regular business and that he was really on clean shaven, goggleless days Detective George Patten of the Seventh division. He charged the men with attempted grand larceny and said he was rid ing about in disguise looking for pickpockets when he ran across the three men.

Premature Old Age Can Be Avoided When We Obey Nature's Laws One of the most fruitful'causes of old age that comes too soon is an im poverished condition of the blood. There may be many causes for this condition, but in most cases, the victim is more concerned with results and relief. Impaired digestion and nervous exhaustion are the result of neglected anaemia, or starvation of the blood. The logical relief is to build up the richness of the blood— not to try to whip the weakened nerves and muscles into unwilling action. One element upon which tho blood largely depends is Iron. This is found in a most active and condensed form In Dr. Chase's Blood and Nerve Tablets, compounded with Nux Vom ica. Gentian and other remedies that build up blood and nerves alike. These tablets are unlike other tonics be cause they stimulate only by feeding the blood the nourishment it lacks The action of DR. CHASE'S BIJX)D AND NERVE TABDETS is so positive, so ronfarkable in effect, that patients are urged to weigh them selves before taking them, and then watch their monthly increase In weight. Price 60 cents; Special Strength (stronger and more active) 90 cents. ■ "The Live Store" "Always Reliable" I I What Made Us Grow? | When you see a business man outgrow his old work and enter into bigger fields, just the bigger position that he occupies isn't what really interests you most You say to yourself, ' I "How Did He Do It?"
