BOOSTING II
Still the good work goes on, soon
there will not be any more tired,
nervous people in our city.
This is caused largely by the wide
spread use of Phosphated Iron, the
new tonic and nerve bracer that has
sprung into instant popularity with
the medical world.
Phosphated Iron will help any
i un-down, nervous condition almost
immediately. It will put fresh iron
in the blood, the phosphates taking
hold of the nerve centers and bracing i
them up. You will eat better, sleep
better and get up in the. morning
feeling like doing things; you will
feel the old-time vim and snap of
youth surging through your veins;
you will tackle the day's work with
confidence and a smile.
Science has taught us that when
we have enough Iron and Phos
phorous in the blood and nerves we
are healthy; that almost all condi
tions of ill health and nervousness
are due to the lack of Iron or Phos
phorous. Phosphated Iron rarely \
fails to supply tho needed amount
of both.
Use Phosphated Iron one week'
nnd you will forget you were ever;
nervous, tired out and run down, '
you can feel It taking hold.

BATTLE
Hy
1 s Undaunted by the
nien %Ie Difficulties in
T
c ' Dense Maze
ienn Headquarters in Franco,
AnsO, (delayed)—. Fighting along
Nephew front northwest of Verdun
Ihr settled down to the dreary busi
he-s to which the machine gun has
nduced ntodern warfare. Progress
| s being measured by the .laborious
[ reduction of small points which are
held by small groups of men able
to paralyse force out of all propor
tion to their fighting value.
From a dramatic viewpoint the
greatest fighting has taken place in
the Argonno forest, where it has re
sembled a duel fought to the tlnish
In a dark room. The density of the
forest is complicated by the strange
ness of the ground, which resembles
nothing so much as the backbone
and ribs of a fat tish, with the ribs
on one side shortened to half their
length and the backbone running
north and south. These ribs repre
sent series of ridges and ravines
which are almost perilously steep on
the eastern sice but less abrupt and
longer further west. The ravines
follow each other in ceaseless succes
sion along the backbone for about
twenty-five miles. To force such a
position would be sufficiently difficult
if it had been in the enemy hands
only a short time, but much harder
since ho has been in possession of it
for years.
Terrific Front to Attack
When the enemy had built a series,
of stone mansions beneath the hill
sides and constructed approaches of
stone-lined trenches, the formidable
character of the task may be under
stood. But even more formidable
than the dugcuts and trenches is the
wire woven endlessly among the
trees. Hundreds upon hundreds of
miles of wire has been strung there
since two years ago. Through it have
grown weeds and grasses more than
three feet high, making the obstacle
more serious by concealment.
Through such a country the
Americans have been fighting their
way foot by foot. Young in years,
young in experience and in depress
ing darkness, where death may be
ambushed behind any of the myriad
trunks of trees and where the rattle
of machine guns is multiplied and
magnified by the forest into a reafen
ing snarl of thunder, every man
knows how small his chances are of
being seen by friendly eyes if he
should fall. Even when the inde
fatigable stretcher-bearers find him,
the task of getting him out from
these malign surroundings is one of
daunting magnitude. How the
wounded are being rescued even their
saviors scarcely know, but their
work, although exhausting, is being
magnificently performed and is win-1
ning fervent tributes.
Did Xot Daunt Yankees
Notwithstanding everything, the
troops have gone through the forest
almost aa steadily as their com
rades outside. Even the Germans are
not completely at home in the be
wildering complication of ravines
and ridges. Some Americans have
actually been captured twice, and
each time havt been retaken with
their captors.
The headway the Americans have
been making is evidently a disagree
able shock to the enemy. During
yesterday men belonging to a reserve
division were captured after being
rushed back at top speed to meet
the expected British attack.
Among the other troops captured
yesterday were men from the Fifth
Guards' division. This organization
had a taste of American fighting
capacity at Belleau wood, and re
cently fought in Flanders. Men of i
another reserve division which had;
been rushed hither from Mulhausen
also were taken.
George E. Reisner Dies
Suddenly at Chambersburg
Chambersburg, Pa., Oct. I.—•
George E. Reisner, for twenty-five
years identified with Valley Spirit,
Colonel David A. Orr's Democratic
daily newspaper here, died suddenly
of heart disease at midnight. Since
1910 he har been business manager
and associate editor. Prior to that!
he had been superintendent of the!
mechanical departments.
He was widely known in Franklin
county because of his newspaper con*
r.ection and. activity in Democratic
politics. As a member of First Lu
theran Church he was prominent in
church work. His widow, who is a
daughter of Profesfeor Samuel Gel
wix, and one daughter. Miss Emilie
Reisner, survive, togethtr with a
number of brothers and sisters. Mr.
Reisner was prominently mentioned
in connection with the postmaster
ship of Chambersburg at the time of
the death of Charles A. Suesserrott.
"KAMERAD!" CRIES BULGARIA, HOISTING THEWHJTE FLAC
Bulgaria, despite the alleged friendliness of King Ferdinand for the German emperor and the Germans,
has cried "Kamerad!" and hoisted the white Hag, the tlrst to be hoisted by any of the combination of cen
tral powers since the,war began. The issue is of intense importance to the German dream of conquest. Bul
garia's surrender cuts off the connection with Turkey. The German dream had been a Jlitteleuropa, ex
tending from Antwerp to the Persian gulf, taking in Bulgaria and other Balkan countries and Turkey.
This may snows the railroad running through Budapest, Belgrade, Sofia and Constantinople to be cut in
two, so there can no longer be communication with Turkey. General d'Esperey is the allied commander to
whom the peace offer was made.

German Army Weakens as

6.40 P. M. —Although it is apparent
that the Germans are desperately
trying to keep the Americans back as

to-day that the enemy was weaken

Hires behind the German lines are

CITY PLANS FOR
JROLL OF HONOR
[Continued from first Pag°,l
lee. With the selective service calls
to be made until next sprint:, it
expected the total will he greatly
increased. At present there is no ot
fieial city or county record showing
the names of every man in service.
In many other cities and counties,
not only in Pennsylvania hut in
Other states, such an official recorc
is being kept.
Plans Large Display Case
According to a plan submitted t
Council.tp-day at its regular meet
ing a large display case about twelve
feet In height and probably 100 feet
in length would be neded to hoi"
the names of all the men and women
front Harrisburg and Dauphin coun
ty now in service in the Army. Navy.
Marines and Red Cross. The system
which would be used, also would per
mit notations to show when a sol
dier had been killed, wounded. ca P"
tured or was missing, and when he
was cited for bravery or given a war
cross. It is estimated that to install
an honor roll which -would be large j
enough both for the city and the
county would cost several thousands
Of doilars.
Trees to Honor Soldiers
Council also gave. Commissioner
Gross perptlssion to give trees 'f® l ?
the City nursery to families who wish ,
to plant them in honor of soldlers |
who died in service. One tree will be
given to the Thirteenth ward am
will be planted on the grounds at j
the Melrose schoolbuilding.
Permanent Memorial Desired
In discussing a movement to ha\e
the city plant trees in honor of dean
heroes the officials agreed that such
a memorial would not be more tban
a temporary one, depending on the
life of the tree and its care and
treatment. Mayor Keister was par
ticularly opposed to the plan for that
reason and declared that a perma
nent memorial should be erected to
honor soldiers from the city who die
on the battlefield.
Communication requesting the
appSlntment of a delegate to attend
the annual sessions of the American
Public Health Association at Chi
cago, October 14 to 17, and the Na
tional Tuberculosis Association in
Pittsburgh October 17 and 18 were
read in Council and Mayor Keister
directed them to be referred to the
health bureau for action.
The ordinance permitting parking
of automobiles and other vehicles
for a period of not more than thirty
minutes in Second street, from Wal
nut to ■ Strawberry streets, was
passed finally. It repeals an ordi
nance introduced a few weeks tgo
by Commissioner Gross which, when
it was passed, prohibited any park
ing in that part of the street.
Commissioner Lynch introduced
the second ordinance by request and
to-day submitted a petition signed
by about twenty of the property
owners and tenants along Second
street, all asking for the passage of
the measure. Commissioner Gross
said that since the majority of the
persons interested had petitioned
Council for the new , measure he
j would vote for it-
Mayor Keister, although he voted
for. the ordinance, told the other
members that he preferred the first
one which prohibited parking. He
declared that with the Valley Rail
ways Company cars running both
directions on one track in this part
of the congested district,
traffic conditions at times become
serious for the public. He also inti
mated that the city may be held
liable for damages should an acci
dent result as there is no authority
given'to permit cars to run in a di
rection against traffic as is the case
when the Valley cars are leaving
Market Square, going northbound, to
Walnut street.
