form In this great cause, tho

"Simply Marvelous"
Results From Tonall
"Hardly a day passed for years!
but what I would be tortured by sick
headache and stomach trouble," says
Robert W. Townschend, of 19 West
South street, York, Pa. "My stomach
gave me so much trouble that I was '
afraid to eat for fear of the after [
effects. I was constipated, in fact,
days at a. time and I would feel as
though 1 could not work.
"I had tried several tonics and
laxatives with the same result—mo
mentary relief. I realized my condi
tion was daily growing worse, and
my acquaintances also noticed my
condition and one of tliem recom
mended Tonall to me.
"I at once bought a bottle and be
gan using it. As a result I will just
mention one fact: I have not eaten
nny mince pie for years until yester- j
. day and I was so hungry for it that I
I thought I woujd eat a piece as I |
felt as though my stomach would i
digest the wuue. which It did. 1 :
*nlmply feel that I owe this testimony |
to the public, as the results I have
derived from the use of Tonall are
rimply marvelous."
The above testimony was given

SWATARA'S ROAD
CONTRACT LET
After Many Delays Work Will
Be Started at Oberlin;
Highway Work Moving
Contracts for road construction to
cost in the neighborhood of $350,000
were awarded at the State Highway
Department by Highway Commis
sioner O'Neil, including the Swatara
township work in Dauphin county,
which was advertised four times be
fore satisfactory bids were obtained.
This is known as tho Oberlin half
mile.
The contracts let were: Samuel
Gamble Company, Pittsburgh, ?.19
miles on route 108, Allegheny county,
$170,340.30.
E. H. Brua, Hollidaysburg, street
in-Duncansville, Blair county, at *39,-
746.60.
Vipond Construction Company,
Altoona, 3.01 miles between Bellwood
and Tyrone, Blair county, at $117,-
407.70.
Stucker Bros. Construction Com
pany, Swatara township, Dauphin
county, at $22,573.30.
Martin Bros., Pittsburgh, street in
Youngstown borough, Westmoreland
county, at $23,145.50.
Inspection of conditions on the
state highway route between Le
moyne and the site of the big quar
termaster's depot being constructed
by the United States government at
a cost of seven million dollars, will
he made by officers of the State High
way Department during the latter
part of the week. The United States
construction officers have asked that
the road be put into better shape to
stand traffic and the state authori
ties who are trying to spread the
appropriations pretty thin because of
numerous maintenance demands will
go over it with them. The road is
not one of the main highways as It
runs along the Susquehanna river
and it has not received arty special
attention in recent years. Conse
quently when the heavy teaming re
quired for the depot' work began the
road showed the strain.
The government officers want the
road fixed up, as well as the highway
between Steelton and Middletotvn
which passess the ordnance depot
un,"v construction on the east side
of the river. The repair of the west
shore highway would be an exp.naive
proposition. It is not likely that the
Cumberland and Lower Allen au
thorities or York county people will
Join in much reconstruction, so the
United States will call upon the -.tatc
to better conditions.
Nursery Home Rummage
Bags Rapidly Filling
That the 22,000 thrift bags dis
tributed throughout the city by the
Nursery' Home, are rapidly being
filled with salable articles, is the
statement made by officials of the
Nursery Home to-day. The bags
were recently distributed, and people
were asked to place in them articles
which would otherwise, have been
thrown into the waste basket. These
articles are sold by the Home and
the money is used for the support of
the institution.
Yesterday it was suggested by J.
Horace McFarland, president of the
American Civic Association, that
salable products gathered in the
city clean-up week, be given to the
Nursery Home to assist them in their
campaign.
