CATARRH MUST
BE CURED!
Make-Shift Remedies Are
Absolutely Worthless
Don't think likely of Catarrh.
Do not make the mistake of be
lieving that it is merely an ag
gravated bad cold. True, this
trouble usually starts with what
is apparently a cold in the head,
but beware of any cold that
"hangs on." You may as well
realize at the outset that Ca
tarrh is a serious disease and one
that should not be trifled with.
In fact, in many instances it is a
forerunner of the most dreaded
of all diseases—consumption. -
Catarrh has become almost
a universal ailment among the
American people. Almost
everywhere, in theatres, cars,
and on the streets there-is a con
stant sniffling and hawking, for
there is bound to be some one
in almost every place who is
afflicted with catarrh. And
everyone is a possible victim,
for the ge<"ms of the disease are
easily communicated frorti one
person to another.
So many people afflicted with
this disease have been unable to
find a cure, although they have
taken many different kinds of
treatment for years, until now
they are almost .willing to be
lieve the disease is incurable.
Like everything else, to find re
lief from this disease, the proper
treatment must be resorted to.
Xo other kind can be expected to
do any good.
Read what Mr. C. F. Venatta
of New Kensington, Pa., has to
say about his Catarrh:
"I have used S. 8. 8. In my
family and know what it.ls, •
and have recomended it to my
friends. Sonic years ago I had
Catarrh In my head, and after
using other remedies without
results, which only seemed to
dry up the Irritated mucous, I
commenced taking S. S. S
and after taking a few bottles
X was cured."

Miss Mary K. Bent Dies
at Philadelphia Home
Miss Mary K. Bent, for many years
identified with the life of this city,
died at her home, 2316 Delancey
Place, Philadelphia, yesterday after
a brief illness. Funeral services will
be held from the house to-morrow at
2 o'clock in the afternoon and burial
will be made in the Laurel Hill cem
etery.
Miss eßnt, a woman of extraordi
nary mind and grace of character,
came to this cit ysoon after her grad
uation from the Bradford Academy,
Mass., and for years made her home
with the family of the late Mr. and
Mrs. Charles L. Bailey, Front and
Chestnut streets. Later she was one
of the principals of the Sergeant and
Bent School, North Front street, and
after that closed permanently Miss
Bent went to Philadelphia to reside.
She frequently visited her and Mrs.
George Douglass Ramsay, her most
recent hostess, and Mrs. Robert E.
I Speer, of Englewood, N. J., formerly
Miss Emma D, Bailey, of this city,
were with her at the time of her

POSLAM EXCELS
IN CONQUERING
WORST ECZEMA
That results should show over
night is a great deal to expect ot
any skin Remedy—except Poslam.
But Poslam differs from all other
remedies in possessing healing en
ergy in a more concentrated and
more active form.
That is thai reason why in stub
born Eczema it shortens the time of
treatment and drives away minor
troubles before they become serious.

ritated surfaces.

Urge your skin to become clearer,
fresher, better by the dally use of
Polsam Soap, medicated with Pos
lam.
The most common mistake
made in the treatment of Ca
tarrh is in directing all effort
toward the symptoms, rather
than the source of the disease.
The inflammation of the mem
branes in the nose and air pas
sages causing the head to be
come stopped up, and making
it difficult to breathe, is but an
indicatiQn of the disease. In
other words, this is not the
disease itself, but nature's
method of informing the vic
tim that he has been attacked.
You may treat Catarrh all your
life with sprays, atomizers,
douches and similar local appli
cations, and you will never be
really rid of the disease.
The burning question, then,
is "How Can I Get Rid of Ca
tarrh?" You have doubtless
used numbers of local remedies,
and like every other sufferer
you have found out that, they
are nothing but make-shifts
and do you no permanent good.
S. S. S. has proven highly suc
cessful in the treatment of Ca
tarrh because the real seat of
the disease is in the blood, and
there is no disorder of the blood
which docs not promptly yield to
this great vegetable remedy.
S. S. S. goes direct to the
seat of the disease and routs
out from the blood every ves
tige of impurity. No disorder
of the blood can remain in com
petition with S. S. S. It simply
eradicates and eliminates every
germ of Catarrh from the
blood, after which the irritated
jnucous membranes promptly
heal and the sufferer once more
enjoys perfect freedom from
this annoying disease.
Our medical department will
gladly give you all necessary
information about the treat
ment of your own 'individual
case, for which no charge will
be made. Write to-day to the

STEELTOK
STEELWORKERS
IN BIG MEETING
Annual Get-Together Session
Will Be Held Tomorrow
Evening
Employes of the local steel "plant
together with thousands of workmen
in all plants of the Bethlehem steel
plant will be asked to sign a patrio
tic pledge card signifying' their will
ingness to do their utmost to achieve
100 per cent, efficiency in individual
operation ana in turning out 100 per
cent, of the possible product of the
plant.
This plan of enlisting the support
of every workman in the local plant
will likely result from the annual
"get-together" meeting of superin
tendent, foremen and safety com
mitteemen of the local'plant to be
held in the High school auditorium
to-morrow evening at 7.30 o'clock.
President Eugene Grace, of the
Bethlehem Steel Corporation and
Quincy Bent, vice-presideht, will be
the principal speakers at the meet
ing. President Grace will talk along
safety first lines and will point out
to the men the importance of their
efforts in achieving 100 per cent,
efficiency.
Meetings similar to the one to
morrow evening are being held in all
the plants of the Bethlehem Com
pany. A meeting of officials of the
Lebanon and Reading plants was
held at Lebanon last week. Quincy
Bent was the principal speaker at
this meeting. During his talk, Mr.
Bent in characterizing the Industrial
field as the "first line" trenches of
the nation, said that the lines runs
from Washington, D. C., and touches
every industrial center in the coun
try where munitions of war are b
ing made. Even now, he said. Fore
River shipyards are waiting for the
rivets which are to come from the
Reading and Lebanon plants for the
construction of ships to carry cargoes
to France. A decrease of produc
tion, he further said, hurts the coun
try and is a thing the nation must
avoijj if the war is to he won. He
was greeted with enthusiastic ap
plause at the conclusion of his i<d
dress which was brief but impressive,
delivered as it was with deep con
viction.
Other speakers at the meeting will
be Dr. MacGuire, of the Kmergency
Fleet Corporation, and Douglas Drew,
a Canadian, who was In active serv
ice at the front for two and a half
years.
Storm Causes Damage
to Front Street Blocks
Forces of workmen from the bor
ough highway department to-day
were making repairs to wooden
blocks in several r.ections of Front
street which had been torn up by
the heavy rain yesterday. Consider
able damage to the street was caused
at Front and Franklin, Front and
Gibson streets, and in Front street at
Booser's run.
Traffic in Front street between
Mohn and Ghambers streets was al
most paralysed yesterday by the large
amount of ground that was washed
in the street. It was necessary to
dig the ground from the tracks be
fore traffic could be resumed. The
wooden blocks at these sections were
badly damaged and it will take con
siderable time to make the repairs,
it was learned to-day.

Amish Sect Fights
Operation of Draft;
Seth Yoder Wanted
Belleville, Pa.*, May 22. —People of
the Kishacoqulllas Valley fear they
have a white elepljant on their hands
in a certain element among the
Amish people, a sect that came to the
United States from Switzerland under
the leadership of John Menno and
settled in Lancaster and Berks coun
ties. Since the declaration of war
they have fought the induction of
their sons into military service, re
fused to purchase Liberty Bonds, war
savings stamps or use war substi
tutes.
The authorities are making every
effort to capture Seth Yoder, charged
with evading the draft, and who is
said to be in hiding in the valley. The
authorities heard he was in hiding
in a cistern at the home farm, but
searchers failed to find him and later
residents on the back mountain road
reported a horse with saddle and
bridle, but no rider, had been seen
op several occasions trotting towards
the Yoder home and they believe
he is spending his nights in the val
ley and using the animal to transport
himself into the mountains.
Court Scores Persons
Guilty fo Flirtations
St. Louis, Mo., May 22.—Men and
women who satisfy their love of ad
venture by what they consider a
harmless flirtation with the opposite
sex furnished cause for philosophiz
ing by Judge Grimm in a decision in
a divorce suit filed by Samuel It.
Blackshaw against his wife, Belle.
He was granted a divorce. Mrs.
Blackshaw's appeal for a new trial
was denied. Mrs. Blackshaw was
accused of intimacy with an attrac
tive gardener in Tower Grove Park
here.
Judge Grimm warned that no wo
man could reasonably expect her
husband to "cling to her" If she
proved herself indiscreet.
■Kerensky Wrongly Reported
as Arrived From Russia
Nfw York, May 22.—A report which
reached Washington last night that
Alexander. Kerensky, the picturesque
young chief of the Russian revolu
tion, who was overthrown by the
Bolshevist element, had arrived in
this city from Europe proved to be
unfounded.
There was an inclination in Wash
ington to crpdit the report not only
on account of it* semiofficial origin
but because there has been reason
to believe that Kerensky was on his
way to America from a place in
Northern Europe. At the Russian
Kmbassy, however, no advices of his
arrival were received, and further
investigation proved the report un
true.
