PLUVIUS WORKS
WITH FUEL HEAD
TO DARKEN CITY
Beats Administrator in Inaug
urating Lightless Nights;
Hour of Total Gloom
The lightless night prevailed in
Harrisburg to an extent never con
templated by the fuel administra
tion. When the series of electrical
storms which passed over the city
Played havoc with the machinery of
the Harrisburg Light and Power
Company plant, the city began to
conserve light to an extent the fuel
administrator would never dare to
suggest.
Street lights went out early In the
evening, and came on only fitfully
until the service was fully resumed
near midnight. The entire city was
without street light for an hour in
the evening, and many parts of the
city were without street lighting for
several hours. Many houses and
buildings were lightless during the
early evening.
The storm charged the air with
electricity to such an extent that
tne high power conducting wires
were overcharged,* resulting in the
burning out of wires. About 8 o'clock
shortly after repairs had been made,
a bolt of lightning struck near the
■Laght and Power Company plant,
wrecking part of the system. It was
nearly four hours 'before repairs
were made. Shortly before midnight
street lighting was resumed, and the
residences and buildings began to get
service a little later.
Complaints Are Few
There were few complaints *be
cause of lack of service for electric
lighting last night. It was known to
be the first lightless night, and the
dwellers in the city have been so im-,
bued with the ideas of patriotic
sacrifice that not a word was utter- |
ed against the darkness by those who
Don't Be Bald
How to Make Hair Grow Strong,
Thick and Ivustrous
Few of us get bald In a day and
we all have ample warning when our
hair is thinning out.
Parisian sage is a most efficient
hair invigorator, but to immediately
stop any further loss of hair and
quickly start a new growth it must
be rubbed into the scalp so the starv- j
ed hair roots can really absorb it and
get the vital stimulation so badly
needed. You will surely be delighted
with the first application for your
hair and scalp should look and feel
100 per cent, better.
Parisian sage is not expensive. It's
a scientific preparation that supplies
all hair needs—a clean, non-sticky,
antiseptic liquid that is sold by Ken
nedy's Drug Store and at drug and
toilet counters everywhere with
guarantee to give*you perfect satis
faction or money refunded.
Good looking hair is half the bat
tle in any man's or woman's person
al appearance. Neglect means dull,
thin, lifeless hair and finally bald
ness, while a little attention now in
sures thick and lustrous hair for
years to come. No matter what your
hair troubles try a Parisian sage
massage to-night—you will not be
disappointed.—Adv.

THURSDAY EVENING,
thought the collapse of the lighting
system -was due to conservation ef
forts of the fuel administration.
In the business section those who
were abroad said this morning it
was impossible to see a few feet
ahead into the enveloping gloom. It
was impossible to discern where
sidewalks ended and streets began,
while buildings were only shadowy
blots against gloomy* background.
Those compelled to go about during
the storm had to pick their way
slowly and without the aid of guid
ing lights. Cigar ends glowed like
-lightning bugs" Jn the gloom, and
wsre almost the only illumination.
Flashlights and lanterns were press
ed into service, while houses piped
for gas were illuminated with that
means of light.
Kerosene and candles came into
their own last night, while many
dwellers went to bed in the early
hours of the evening.
When the light service was finally
resumed, the city resumed only a
trifle of its customary nightly bril
liancy. Street lights burned, but that
practically was the only outside il
lumination. Theater signs, theater
entrances, hotel and restaurant en
trances. sidewalk signs, display win
dows and outside decorative lights,
| were conspicuous by their absence
: of illumination. It was lightless night
! and a sample of what four nights
I each week will be hereafter.
Ross A. Hlckok. county fuel ad
ministrator. said this morning that
some confusion regarding the light
ing of display windows was appar
ent last night. The order deolares
that light for all store, show or dis
plays windows, or signs in show win
dows. shall be discontinued on
Monday. Tuesday, Wednesday and
Thursday evenings of each week,
and under no consideration may any
lights be burned In the windows be
tween sunrise and sunset. Viola
tion of the order will be punished
by a $5,000 fine or two years In
prison, or both. A fuel administra
tion agent will make a round of the
city to-night to see that this order
is obeyed, it was said by the fuel
administrator.

honey production.
Mr. Greene says: 'The shortage
of sugar and its' rigid supervision Is
felt ly all and the most wholesome
substitute is gathered by the honey
see*,. Hundreds of tons of honey
recreted In the flowers Is going to
waste in this state and farmers nev
er an opportunity to expand
production and consumption as that
of the present time. Beekeeping is
one of the most profitable side lines
to farming and it is almost an es
sential industry for the orchard
farm, as the advantages of polleniza
tion are of as much value as the
honey itself.
Two hundred and fifty million
pounds of honey is the annual av
erage yield of honey in the United
otates. This allows two and a half
pounds per capita, three per cent, of
the annual per capita consumption
of sugar. The total amount of su
gar in the nectar of the flowers in
Pennsylvania greatly exceeds the
amount of a'l the sugar sweets con
sumed by the people in the state.
Nothing more patriotic or more bus
inesslike could be done than to have
universal interest in beekeeping and
allow the little honey bees to make
ply shortage in our sugar sup-
