MAYOR CALLS ON
CITY BOYS TO
AID STRICKEN
\
\sks That Sections Where
People Suffer Be Kept
Quiet as Possible
Mayor Keister this afternoon decid
ed to call upon every Harrlsburg boy
to act as a guardian against noise
during the epidemic of influenza, now
prevalent in the city. "So many com
plaints have come to my office con
cerning the noises that annoy and
distress the people who are ill, said
the mayor at noon, "that I feel it is
necessary that each Harrisburg boy
constitute himself an officer to in
sure quiet in the communities where
our people are sick. I know how
badly people who are down with pneu
monia feel. In my own vicinity I
have drafted the boys into service.
Now. I want to summon every lad in
the city to similar service so that
the sick may not be disturbed un
necessarily. I believe if we all co
operate we can make the situation
better for those who suiter. Let's
have as little noise as possible."
LEMON JUICE
: WHITENS SKIN j
> Girls! Make beauty lotion >
| at home for few cents i
Squeeze the juice of two lemons
into a bottle containing three ounces
of Orchard White, shake well, and
you have a quarter pint of the best
bleaching and s'cin whitening lotion,
and complexion beautifier, at very,
very small cost.
Your grocer has the lemons and
any drug store or toilet counter will
supply three ounces of Orcharu
White for a few cents. Massage this
sweetly fragrant lotion into the face,
neck, arms and hands each day and
see how tan, redness, sallowness,
sunburn and windburn disappear
• ind how clear, soft and rosy-white
the skin becomes. Yes! It is harm
less.
Sour Stomach
Mi-o-na Puts the Stomach in
Fine Shape in Five Minutes
If your stomach is continually kick
ing up a disturbance: you feel bloat
ed and distressed: if you belch gas
and sour food into the mouth, then
you need Mi-o-na Stomach Tablets.
Mi-o-na stomach tablets give in
stant relief, of course, but they do
more; they drive out the poisonous
gases that cause fermentation of
food and thoroughly clean, rennovate
and strengthen the stomach so that
it can readily digest food without
artificial aid.
Mi-o-na stomach tablets are guar
anteed to end indigestion, acute or
chronic, or money back. This means
that nervousness, dizziness and
biliousness will disappear. Druggists
everywhere and H. C. Kennedy sell
Mi-o-na.
SCHOOL-DAY STRAIN
A parent troubled over a child or a fast-growing
youth, could do no better than to utilize the
definite help that
KOIMNULSION
affords as a strengthening and nourishing factor.
A very little of Scott's every day, during a time
fof stress, furnishes elements of nourishment essential
to the blood and tends to confirm a growing child
in robustness. For your boy or girl, you will not
be satisfied with anything short of Scott's.

FRIDAY EVENING.
WITH TORCH IN
HAND HUNS CRY
OUT FOR PEACE
Perpetrate Ruthless Vandal
ism in Cambrai; City Is
Mass . of Ruins
By Associated Press
With the Canadian. Forces in
Franco, Oct. 11.—Cambrai is a
smoking ruin. The Germans prob
ably have never perpetrated a moru
ruthless nor more premeditated van
dalism than this destuction of
Cambrai.
"France can never forget nor for
give this," remarked a French of
ficer. "Torch in hand they come
offering us peace."
When the Canadians entered Cam
brai the great public square of the
Place D'Armea virtually was intact.
Now it is a mass of ruins. The ex
plosions began at 9 o'clock and have
continued ever since. All Wednes
day, in every part of the town, there
were explosions of incendiary bombs
with time fuses attached and these
were followed immediately by out
bursts of Are. In one short street
a dozen houses simultaneously burst
into flames.
Buildings Blown to Pieces
The town hall, the Bishop's palace
and other buildings were blown to
pieces. The cathedral still stands
but only with its ruined chancel.
Fire is lapping the base- of the great
belfry tower.
As the hours went by the univer
sal character of the holocaust de
veloped. The sun was obscured
partly and it seemed like a fiery ball
in the smoke and thick dust of fall
ing walls.
The Canadian engineers sought to
pen in the conflagration by dyna
miting the buildings, but the flames
broke out at the backs of the sol
diers.
There remains in the city Father
Thiez, a priest of thp church of St.
Druon. Two days ago he was or
dered by the Germans to leave the
city. He refused because he had
to attend a dying woman. The
Germans threatened to shoot him
but he persevered, and yesterday he
was caring for civilians who had
hidden for ten days in the cellars.
APPOINTED NIGHT WATCHMAN
The Dauphin county cyourt to-day
appointed Charles E. Bechtel, of
Millersburg, a night watchman, with
the powers of a police constable,
while he si in the service of the
American Express Company.
TAKE ARCHBISHOP PRISONER
On the British Front in France,
Oct. 11.—Monsignor Chollet, arch
bishop of Cambrai, was carried away
by the Germans when they evacuated
the city.
