Catarrh Sufferer
Quickly Relieved
. I
I suffered from Chronic Catari'n
al Gastritis for years" says Walter
W. Smith, of 211 Broad St., York.!
Pa. "I was fast becoming a nervous,
wreck and the miseries I suffered
no one but myself knew. I had
doctored for the past three years
and had to give up a good positiou
due to my "health. I had no appetite:
and what little I did eat would fer-'
ment and gas would form and I
would get pains that were indeed
awfu!. I'would often have vomiting!
spells and was constipated, irritable ,
and badly run down and had but!
little energy left in me. Tonall was
recommended to me. and I am only j
too glad to recommend Tonall tc
those who may be in the same physi- j
cal condition I was in. I shudder to 1
think of the condition I was in but !
I now have a grand appetite and
eat whatever I feel like eating; iny i
bowels are regular and I feel elegant ,
in every respect."
Tonall is sold at Gorgas" Drug j
Store. Harrisburg. and at the Her
shey Drug Store. Hershey, Pa. j

Thomas Ryan, of Binghamton,
X. Y„ who submitted a price of $48,-
705.10, was the low bidder. The
prosecution of this work was contin
gent upon certain improvements
planned by the railroad company but
owing to the fact that the
i States government refused permis
sion for the said company to use
funds for this purpose, the State
Highway Department was compelled
to reject the bids. The bid received
for the Bedford county project was
rejected because the local authorities
who were co-operating with the
State Highway Department, were un
willing to complete the work. It was
planned to improve about 12,175 feet
of state highway route 46, jn Hope
well township, by the state-aid plan.

around the gable of the home of

west of Denver in Wadsworth ave
nue, south of Arvada, the other
night.
Mrs. Harper and her son, George
Harper, 8 years old, occupied an up
stairs room and all had gone to bed.
when lightning struck the gable,
tearing a big gap in it, twisting a
large timber from a window and
hurling it across the room in which
the woman and her son were asleep,
and twenty feet away making two
big holes in the ceiling.
Mrs. Harper was unhurt, but her
son was unconscious and dead—she
thought. She tried to arouse him,
but in vain. Then she called her
father. He shook the boy and sud
denly he came to life again as from
a deep sleep.

WANT ACTION ON
ROAD QUESTION
Council Asked- to Consider
Old Question at Once; De
tails Easily Arranged
Immediate action is asked of
borough council on the question of
• the abominable road in lower Steel
i ton, in the two big petitions now be-
I ing circulated in Steelton. The pa
pers made their first appearance last
| night but to-day they already had a
| iarge list of signers. The matter has
! been before council for some time
| but has never been acted on lor
j various reasons. Its consideration is
i expected at Monday evening's raeet
; ing.
With roadway full of gullies
j and hogholes, citizens are becom
j ing exceedingly discontented with
the abominable conditions of tho
: roadway which stretches to and
i through Highspire.
The roadoed has been charucter
j ised by many citizens as one of the
; worst in the state, at least in this
! section of Pennsylvania. The ini-
I provement of the Steelton section
' will open up the way for the <m
i provement of the remaining section,
Steelton citizens believe.
The question of funds for the nec
; essary improvement has already been
j solved. The State Highway De
; partment has given assurance that
! it will bear a portion of the cost and
: some $55,000, the proceeds of an old
paving loan, never utilized, is avail
able. The cost would not be more
than $35,000 or $40,000. It is be
lieved that necessary materials could
easily be secured because of the gov
ernment's need for better roads in
this section occasioned by the two
Plants located at Middletown.
MRS. ANNA McCALL DEAD
Mrs. Anna McCall, a resident of
Steelton for forty years, died last
e.'ening at her home. 1345 Swataja
street. She is survived by three sons,
John J. McCall, Hugh B. McCall and

ter, Miss Mary McCall. Solemn re
quiem mass will be conducted in St.
James' Catholic Church on Monday
morning by the Rev. J. C. Thomp
son.

Red Blooded
People Live
Thejsongest
Red-blooded people retain their
youth hnd vigor until late in life

A child with impure blood seems
old. while an old man with pure red;
ironized blood seems young.

with waste matters, rapidly aging
body, mind and spirit '
Pure blood is red blood, rich in
Iron and phosphates with power to
rid itself of waste matter and able
to carry ltfe-glving oxygen to every
cell and nerve. It makes both
young and old, bright, happy, keen (
and interested In life. This is the
blood you need, every day of your
life, the rich red blood made by
pure food, fresh air, restful sleep j
and "Phosphated Iron the red blood >
and nerve builder."
Phosphated Iron enriches your
blood and nerves,- putting them in
shape for work. Improves your col
or, increases your appetite and gives;
you strength, vigor and power to;
enjoy both work and pleasure,!
makes you feel like doing things j
once more.

leading doctors for all who are worn'
out, run down, nervous, weak and

MURDOCH HELPS
REGISTRANTS
Encourages Plan Whereby
Men Can Register in Big
Industrial Establishments
Major W. G. Murdock, the state
draft executive to-day urged that
large employers of labor arrange
with local draft boards for registra
tion of their men with the least pos
sible disturbance of operations espe
cially in plants which are engaged
on munitions. In a number of In
stances plans have been made where
by men in Iron and steel works will
register In the plants and the cards
forwarded to the proper local boards.
"The greatest care should be taken
to see that the cards go to the home
districts of the registrants," said he.
Reports coming here Indicate that
all over the state local boards have
prepared for the registration and urg
ing that registrants get ready' their
answers.
To-day the last of the special trains
for the five camps receiving men
under the first September calls will
be closed.
The Philadelphia Record and North
American have the dismissal of Board
No. 2 as something needed in the
draft system, while The Philadelphia
Press says: "The "firing" of Board
No. 2 is due directly to the investiga
tion of its activities by Colonel J. S.
Easby-Smith, personal representative
of General Crowder, Provost Marshal.
Major W. G. Murdock, of Harrisburg.
State Draft Administrator, is under
stood to have asked Governor Brum
baugh two months ago to dismiss the
appeal board, but the Governor who
was res]ft>nsible for the appointment
of the board members failed to take
any action. Carelessness, favoritism
and "pull" formed the basis of the
charges against the appeal board.
John P. Dwyer secretary of Locol
Board No. 32, Overbrook, was the first
to criticise its activities. He made
a number of specific charges, among
them that the board delayed action
on appeals from his local board so
that many registrants were sent to
camp months after their proper time.''
