nine deaths In Harrisburg, the ma- j
jority, of them caused by pneu- i
monia, in many eases developing |
from influenza. A comparison of J
this death j-ate shows that during i
the entire month of October, 1917, ■
there were only seven more deaths j
than were reported last week.
Drastic action will be taken, Dr. j
Raunick said, to enforce the order
that funerals are to be private, "A .
number of violations of this order I
will be Investigated and If the prac- I
tice of permitting a large number of i
relatives and friends to attend the
service is not stopped prosecutions
will bo brought us every undertaker j
knows his duty. Overcrowded cabs I
arc dangerous to tho health of the |
people. The order concerning private
funerals is that only adult members
of a deceased person's family may j
attend and it must be obeyed."
10 Die 111 48 Hours
Sixteen deaths have been report
ed in the last two days caused either
by pneumonia or influenza. One of
the latest deaths reported Is that of
Dr Hyman R. Wiener, 234 State
street, who died early this morning
at the Harrisburg Hospital.
• The number of patients at the
hospitals is increasing but with the
opening of the emergency hospital
1 nthe open air school building to
care for convalescents it Is believed
sufficient room has been provided
for the present. Ten patients are now
under treatment at the emergency
hospital and more will probably be
taken there. The need of trucks to
serve as ambulances is increasing.
Dr. Raunick said to-day that a large
number of motor trucks large
enough to hold stretchers would till
the ambulance needs. Nurses and or
derlies are wanted also, particularly .
the latter and it is preferred that [
men volunteer for this service. No
medical experience is needed.
Church Is Offered
Another church was offered for
hospital purposes yesterday when
the health officials were notified
they could use the Memorial Luth
eran building at Fifteenth and Shoop
streets. It is not thought that an
other emergency hospital will be
needed at present, but should the
epidemic continue to spread plans
will be made for opening another
building.
So far no violations of the order
closing all stores on Saturday night
have been reported to Dr. Kuunick. i
With the exception of drug stores,
every other business place closed
promptly at 6.30 o'clock, many of the
smaller ones, such as cigar stores, re
maining closed yesterday also.
It has been reported to Dr. Rau- |
nick that in some restaurants ice j
cream is being served when a piece I
of pie or cup Qf coffee is ordered, i
This is a violation of lite health bu- |
reau order, lie said, and will result
in prosecutions if the practice is not
discontinued.
line of the most important events
in county school work during the
year scheduled for this week lias]
been postponed indefinitely because
of the epidemic. The county teach
ers' institute, which was to have j
been held in the city opening to-day,
has been postponed, after complete
plans had been made for tho ses
sions, instructors engaged and pro
grams printed. The institute may be
held later in the year, it was said.

KEEP LOOKING YOUNG
It's Easy—lf You Know Dr.
Edwards' Olive Tablets
The secret of keeping young is to feel
young—to do this you must watch your
liverand bowels—there'snoneedof hav
ing a sallow complexion dark rings
under your eyes—pimples—a bilious
look in your face—dull eyes with no
sparkle. Your doctorwill tell you ninety
per cent of all sickness comes from in
active bowels and liver. ■
Dr. Edwards, a well-known physician
in Ohio, perfected a vegetable com
pound mixed with olive oil to act on
the liver and bowels, which he gave to
his patients for years.
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets, the sub
stitute for calomel, are gentle in their
action yet always effective. They bring
about that exuberance of spirit, that
natural buoyancy which should be en
joyed by everyone, by toning up the liver
and clearing the system of impurities
You will know Dr. Edwards' Olive
Tablets by their olive color. 10c and

Utilities Curtailed
The inroads made by the disease
in the working forces of a number
of places In the city is causing much
concern. Many of the operators of
the Bell Telephone Company are ill,
and the service afforded has been
cut to the minimum. Persons are
urged not to make any telephone
cal's unless of utmost importance.
At the Courthouse three of the
clerks in the county commissioners'
office are ill: and the force of men
employed by the janitor has been
depleted to the extent that he is j
doing all the work, four others being j
confined to their homes.

Warns Against Hasty
Judgment 'on Hun Note
Washington, D. C., Oct. 14.—The
government asks the American people
to withhold their Judgment on Ger
many's note until President Wilson
has received the official communica
tion and has had opportunity to con
sider it.
President Wilson returned to
Washington last night. Colonel E. M.
House, tho President's close friend
and adviser, accompanying the Pres
idential party. Which included Mrs.
Wilson, Miss Margaret Wilson and
Secretary Tumulty.
Prince Maximilian to
Retire as Hun Chancellor
London, Oct. 14.—The resignation

VOICE OF PROTEST
AGAINST THE FOE
(Continued From First IMgc)
render of every German army. Tf,
however, it shall appear that Mr.
Wilson's laudable desire for peace
has led him to prefer diplomatic
conference to victorious advance it
may become the duty of each state
council of defense and every organ
ised body of cltlsens respectfully to
advise him that In that event he will
[have mistaken the Bplrit of the
I American people.
j "The pacifist and conscientious
objectors who have been In retlre
jment during the lighting may be
counted Upon to clamor loudly for
armistice. Therefore those that can
speak for Americans who have dlde
!ln battle and for the millions who
are ready to die, would be bound to
protest effectively If the power of the
jUnlted atntes were used to force
'upon our Allies an unwelcome tnter
.ruptlon of a victorious advance.
I "I hope that your council will give
'its best consideration to this vital
subject and will bo vigilant until the
{President's next official utterance
gives us tho assurance that wo may
again breathe freely."
Following closely on the receipt
of this telegram, Mr. Gilbert wired
Chairman Pepper the following re
sponse:
"Your telegram to the state coun
cils throughout the United States
meets with hearty and arnest ap
proval. Pray God no mistake Is made
just at this critical time."
"Talk to Foch," Reply
of Paris to Germany
Paris, Oct. 14. —The Paris news
papers do not enthuse over the Ger
man reply to President Wilson's
note. More space Is given to the news
of the military successes of the Al
lies than the discussion of the Ger
man document.
In the popular discussion of the
[reply the suspicion persits that Ger
many is evading the issue in some re
spects at least, the feeling being that
she has not gone far enough. It is
pointed out that the German consti
tution is as yet unchanged, and that
if it may-, b'e said the government is
responsible to the people It is like
wise responsible to the emperor.
It is further inquired if there is
to be a surrender whether it should
not be a surrender to Marshal Foch,
the Allied commander-in-chief, who
alone can accept the kind 'of a sur
render the Allies desire.
Facing the Facts
By Rev. Br. Robert Hagncll
1. The Kaiser would like to have]
peace if he could get it and save his
skin. He does not expect peace at
tils time. The purpose of the peace
offensive is military. It is timed to
meet and halt our military offensive
and to cut the nerve of the Fourth
Liberty Loan. He will not succeed in
halting the great Allied military
drive. It looks very much as If he
had been successful in cutting the
nerve of the Liberty Loan drive, at
least in Harrisburg. That will be
good news in Germany.
2. The soldiers and sailors are very
much concerned about the folks at
home. One question frequently ask
ed me while I was in France was,
"Will the folks at home measure up
on the Fourth Liberty Loan?" The
boys are measuring up in France. If
this should be our final report on the
Liberty I.,oan—the report that we have
failed—it will mean that the boys
will hang their heads in shame when
the report comes in. Are we willing
to have the boys ashamed of us?.
3. .Causes of failure: (a) We are
going to have peace, some think.
There are two answers to that: First,
it is not likely that the war will be
over till next summer. President Wil
son and the Germans are too far
apart. Second, if we had peace at
once every cent would be needed to
get our boys back, (b) Many are not
enough interested. Some are too
selfish, or do not realize the serious
ness of the situation. They are not
willing to make any sacrifices, or to
borrow the money, if necessary, to
back them up. Again, unquestion
ably, some of it is pro-German propa
ganda. In every such case, efficient
measures ought to be taken by the
committee to "smoke them out."
Such people are not safe to be at
large, and this ought npt to be a safe
place for them to be in. Then there
are others who think if they do not
take bonds the banks will take care
of them, or the rich men of the com
munity will. The hanks carlnot do it
all. It would he a bad thing for them
to overload. And the rich men must
do all they can anyhow. It is neces
sary for the rank and file of the peo
ple to take bonds because otherwise
we shall fail to reach the quota. And
because it is necessary for the world
to know, especially Germany, that we
are back of our President. The moral
effect is mighty important.
Kvery bondholder ought to wear a
button. Kvery house ought to have
the sign in the window, and any citi
zen has a right to ask "Why not?" if
these are not in evidence.

much In love and became engaged, but
a Jealous friend broke it up. It nearly

he is in the service and writes to me.

I send him boxes of good things as

Britain's Drink Bill
Higher During War
London Correspondence of the i
Associated Press—Before the war !
the people of this country spent $3OO '
000.000 a year for drink. Now they J
spent $1,200,000,000. Nevertheless, j
there is not half the drunkenness in i
these war-times that there was in J
1913. Heavy taxation to provide
war funds accounts for the public's
increased drink bill, not further in
dulgence. In fact, excessive drink
ling has declined more than 80 per
cent, and there has been an enor
mous gain in national efficiency.

A Guaranteed Treatment That Haa
Stood the Teat of Time
Catarrh cures come and catarrh
cures go, but Hyomei continues to heal
catarrh and abolish its disgusting
symptoms wherever civilization exists.
Every year the already enormous
sales of this really scientific treat
ment for catarrh grow greater, and "
the present year should show all rec
ords broken.
1 If you breathe Hyomei daily as di-
I rected it will end your catarrh, or it
won't cost you a cent.
I if you have a hard rubber Hyomei
inhaler somewhere around the house,
I get it out and start it at once to for
ever rid yourself of catarrh.
H. C. Kennedy, or any other good
druggist, will sell you a bottle of
Hyomei (liquid), start to breathe it
and notice how quickly it clears out
the air passages and makes the entire
head feel line.
Hyomei used regularly will end ca
tarrh, coughs, colds, bronchitis or •*
asthma. A complete outfit, Including
a hard rubber pocket inhaler and bot
tle of Hyomei, costs but little. No
stomach dosing; just breathe it. It
kills the germs, soothes and heals the ,
