Then to get back health and
strength is the next thing for Doctor
and patient after grippe, influenza
or other wasting diseases.
A good tonic is needed and the
Medical Profession is'a unit in en-}
dorsing Iron, Nux Vomica, Gentian,
Capsicum and Zinc Phosphidq for j
this purpose. Many preparations}
containing Iron, however, are very i
constipating, but this is overcome in j
Dr. Chase's Blood and Nerve Tablet?
by the addition of Aloin.
These Tablets contain all of the
above important tonics in easily as

These tablets are safe, sure health

£ATARRHVANISHES
Here is One Treatment That All
Sufferers Can Rely Upon
If you want to drive catarrh and all i
its disgusting symptoms from your

go to your druggist and ask for a j
Hyomei outfit to-day.
Breathe Hyomei and it will rid you I
of catarrh; it gives such quick relief

Hyomei is a pure pleasant antisep
tic. which is breathed into the lungs
over the inflamed membrane; it kills
the catarrh germs, soothes the. sore 1
spots, and heals all inflammation.
Don't suffer another day with ca-1
tarrh; the disease is dangerous and >
often ends in consumption. Start the
Hyomei treatment to-day. ,No stom-1

Decreasing Capital.—One of the
interesting signs of the times to
be observed at the corporation bu
reaus of departments of the state
government is the filing of notices
of decreases of stock. The North
western Electric Service Company,
of Erie, filed notice that it had au
thorized decreases from $2,500,000
to $80,000; the Francis Perot's Sons
Malting Company, of Philadelphia,
$600,000 to $500,000; Victory Coal
i Company, $25,000 to SI,OOO and Pep
ers Paper Company, SIOO,OOO to

New Commissions. —The state has.
just recommended over 1,400 men as
volunteer state policemen under the
act of 1917 "for the period of the
war." These men were originally
commissioned for one year only un
der a plan adopted at the Governor's
office, but owing to a change brought
about bythe length of the war com
missions are now being made in the
new form. This is in line with the
spirit of the act which was design
ed to provide a volunteer force for
wartime service only.
Koad Opened The Schuylkill

been under repair for months, has
been opened for traffic.

people have commended the mem

ing frightened people.
Xmisby Goes Up— Dr. H. P. Arnis
by, long in charge of the state ex
periment station at State* College,
has been drafted to serve on one of
the federal war committees.
Big Payments—Approach of the
close of the fiscal year is causing big
payments of state taxes on capital
stock and corporate loans to be
made to the State Treasury. At this
time special efforts are made to get
the big accounts closed and such big
payers as the Pennsylvania and
other railroads send checks for enor
mous amounts. It is not uncommon
for receipts in November to run as
I high as a million dollars a week.
The hope is that the $35,000,000
record of receipts for a year will c°
by the boards this year.

HARRISBURG BOY

Lieut. James Riley Wheelock
Writes of Young Man Who
Reached His Dugout
Enola, Pa., Oct. 28.—A friend at
Enola has Just received an interest
ing letter from Lieutenat James Riley.
Wheelock, a graduate of Carlisle In
dian School, and well-known as lead
er of the Indian School band and the
Enola P. R. R. Y. M. C. A. band in
France. Lieutenant Wheelock has
been In service about ten months and
a short time ago received his commis
sion as a lieutenant.
Among other things Lieutenant
Wheelock says: "The great' drive
which started on the 26th is the
greatest battle of the war to this
time and I witnessed it from a point
about two miles in the rear of our
lines. I am with the Supply Com
pany. so I have had occasion to drive
right into the line to deliver sup
plies. I wish I could tell you about
the battle, but I cannot, so will tell
you about it when I see you again.
The Germans are running like rats,
but every now and then they get up
Steam and make a stand. If the "go
ing" keeps going as it has the last
few days the end will soon be here.
* * * The spirit of every man is to
win the war and each man seems to
think that if the other fellow can
stand it he can. One of the soldiers
got lost the other night on the tiring
line. A big slTell exploded near him
and blinded him for a couple of hours.
When he was again able to see his
company was gone. So he drifted
into my dugout. It turned out that
he was from Harrisburg, and when I
told him I was from Carlisle and my
name, he almost cried with joy. He
bunked with me that night and next
morning I fixed him up with mess
and he returned to his company on
the tiring line happy."

According to Bonhright, a number
of men of his regiment who were
sent into the woods on the Argonne-
Meuse front overheard some conver
sation in German a short distance
away and were about to open Are in
the direction whence the talk came
when Lieutenant John Walters, of

EAfUMSBURG TEXEGKAPR
SURVIVOR OF 13
IS DECORATED
Went Forward Undaunted
-When Last of Com
panions Fell
Private Joseph Bennett, of Norris
town lone survivor of thirteen Yank
ees who volunteered' to reeonnolter
in a wood infested by German ma
chine guns, "carried on" when his
comrades were killed or wounded
and wiped out the Huns with bombs.
For his heroism, Bennett, who
went overseas with Company K, of
the old Sixth regiment, now the
111 th Infantry, has been awarded
the distinguished service cross. The
story is related by Captain Robert
D. Miller, also of Norristown.
"It will bo interesting and grati
fying to the people of your distriort
to know that one of its representa
tives in the A. E. F. will be the
proud possessor of a Jl. S. C., after
the necessary formalities are com
plied with," writes Captain Miller to
his fath&r.
"Private Joseph Bennett, formerly
a member of the old Sixth Infantry,
is the lucky one who will receive it.
However, 1 do not think that lucky
is quite the word* pluck really ex
presses it better, for it was not luck
that caused Joe to volunteer to go
with the patrol that ended so .dis
astrously for his comrade's, but luck
figured in his living to return and
tell about it.
"There was a certain patch of
woods in Boche territory that had
shown no signs of life for many
hours, and yet there was a question
as to whether or not the wily Fritz
had a concealed machine gun nest or
some of his snipers there. Before
advancing, it was vital to the allies
that they know the exact condition
of the place.
"Accordingly, a patrol, under the
command of a French lieutenant,
was organized, partially Ijy selection
and partly by asking for volunteers.
Joe volunteered. There were thirteen
men in all, each armed with a rifle,
while the lieutenant carried a num
ber of bombs.
"They deployed and advanced to
ward the suspected woods, a dis
tance of perhaps about thirty'yards,
and it looked as if they were to tind
the place unpopulated. Suddenly,
without any warning whatever, four
machine guns, cleverly concealed,
began throwing a staggering cross
fire into the patrol, and in less time
than it takes to tell about it, all,
with the exception of Bennett, had
fallen, either killed outright or mor
tally wounded.
"Bennett's rifle had been virtually
cut in half by the rain of machine
grin bullets; not,however, before
; he had accounted for one of the
j Boches. He fell to the ground fac
! ing prostrate and using the bodies of
! his fallen comrades as a protection
| from view, he crawled to the dead
I body of the French lieutenant and
I obtained his supply of bombs.
"Selecting a number of smoke
: bombs he hurled them in rapid suc
! cession, and, under cover of the
smoke, he rapidly crept along the
flank of the enemy and by the clever
use of time explosives, killed the re
maining three German machine gun
men.
"Bennett returned and reported to
his C. 0., the sole survivor of the
thirteen brave boys who started out
upon the patrql. It may sound some
like fiction, probably, to some of you,
but the facts have been investigated
and found to be true in every de
tail. It makes mo feel mighty proud
that Bennett is an American."
