Germans Leave Proof
of Willing Spirit in Exit
From War; Yanks Occupy
With the American Army In France,
Nov. 18. —• All over the reoccupied
country where the Americans have
passed there is evidence of the whole
heartedness which the Germans quit.
Camps witli temporary buildings have
been left intact. Not one was burned
Here and there have been seen great
piles of helmets and ifas masks,
which betrayed the manner in which
entire companies threw away the
equipment they had learned to rely
on but also to hate.
Every road leading eastward from
the Meuse was filled with columns of
American troops from morning until
night, the men marching or travel
ing on vehicles of various kinds in
the general direction of east ■by
(6ortheast.
At different outposts where the
"jump off" was made before daylight
Sunday the Americans had hauled
great piles of supplies, which already
have started to move up for use by
tho advancing troops. At some pieces
these piles of supplies resembled
hills.
Unrest in Holland Less
Threatening; Well in Hand
London, Nov. 18.—Authoriative dis
patches received from Holland yes
terday show that the situation there
is distinctly improved. Disturb
ances and excitement has not died
out completely, hut the situation was
well in hand. The Queen drove out
Thursday in an open carriage. She
was cheered and was received every
where with respect.
On Wednesday at The Hague, sol
diers were posted to guard all public
buildings and government offices.
Cavalry patroled streets in that city
and it was assembled in Amsterdam,
where revolutionary demonstrations
occurred.
CONVALESENCE
"Getting Better" is the most ser
ious time for those who have had
grippe, influenza or other severe
sickness. Something more than or
dinary good food is required to build
you up. A tonic is needed, and for
this purpose doctors usually pre
scribe some form of Iron, Nux
Vomica, Gentian, and Zinc Phos
phide.
The Iron especially is very essent
ial but in most preparations it causes
constipation. In Dr. Chase's Blood
and Nerve Tablets this is overcome
however, by the addition of Aloin
to the other tonic remedies.
As these tablets contain all of
these essential tonics in any easily
assimilated form they make a pleas
ant safe and sure health restorer and
of inestimable value at this time .
Weigh yourself before taking and
watch the rapid progress of return
ing health.
Dr. Chnsc's Blood and Nerve
Tablets may be had at almost any
druggists at sixty cents a box.
Special strength ninety cents.

Scientists have discovered that

MONDAY EVENING,
STATE LICENSES
ARE IN DEMAND
Chances That the Totr.l to Be
Issued This Year Will
Exceed the Record
Pleasant fall weather, woods In
Kood condition and farms well clear
(d of crops, thanks *o a late autumn,
have caused more hunters than
usual to be in the field the first half
of November according to what has
been reported here by the state s
game protectors and the belief hero
is that the number of hunters' li
censes issued this fall will come
pretty close to the record of 305,000
hung up last year. Dr. Joseph Kalb
fus, the secretary of the Game Com
mission, who has been out visiting
hunting counties says that where
mfen took care of game in the ter
rible snow and cold last winter there
is good shooting now and that it
tells its own moral. Open weather,
however, is 3aid by the game au
thorities. to be the great induce
ment and the fact that so many men
have gone out when over a quarter
million Pennsylvanians are away on
war service shows the extent of the
popularity of hunting. One result of
the interest displayed will be that
there will be more attention given
to the care of the game, especially
the ground feeders and such bug
eaters as quail. Store farmers have
tried to save quail this summer than
ever before because of the general
recognition of the values of these
birds as destroyers of potato bugs.
The demand for increased supplies
oWrunters' license arm bands has
lei.n one of the surprises this year.
Philadelphia and York have asked
for a thousand more each: Erie for
750, with Lancaster, Dauphin, Berks
and other eastern agricultural coun
ties requesting more and Washing
ton, Butler, Mercer and Westmore
land also seeking new supplies, al
though Westmoreland was sent
500 at the start.
In some of these counties men
have asked that steps be taken to
stock their districts with small game
and more interest is displayed in
preserves than ever before. The
popularity of rabbit hunting is also
commencing to be renewed and
cottontail propagation will get sup
port next year.

NO LUXURIES IN
COMPENSATION
Chairman Mackey Issues In
teresting Opinion in Decid
ing Dependency Claim
"The claimant is entitled to be
judged dependent upon the" contri
butions of a deceased child, if thbse
j contributions have been necessary
for support interpreted in accord
ance with the station of life and
manner of living of those who as
sert such dependency," says Chair
man H. A. Mackey, of the State
Compensation Board, in a new de
cision regarding what constitutes a
parent's dependency rendered in
Mickano vs. Rochester and Pitts
burgh Coal and Iron Company. "It
I might be shown that the child's con-
I tributions to the family purse had
| been necessary to maintain othor
ipembers of the family in school or
to furnish musical instructions to
other members, or to maintain an
automobile or to obtain other very
proper luxuries which can not be
included in the category of actual
support. We do not think that the
Legislature intended that the em
ployer should pay compensation in
order to secure these items for the
home."
In addition to announcing this
finding the Board held that two men
who claimed compensation for pois
oning during manufacture of the
"T. N. T.," that they became sick
gradually and not from an accident
as contemplated by the compens
tion act. In Hesson vs. Reading Rail
way, a Philadelphia case, it is held
that the deceased was a car inspec
tor and that the train was interstate
commerce. In Hardin vs. Pittsburgh
Steel Foundry Company, Pittsburgh,
compensation is awarded parents for
death of a son who was an office
boy, fatally injured by fellow em
ployes with a compressed air hose.
The fact that they took him into a
room where he, was not employed
and used the hose as a joke, does
not alter the case. A rehearing is
ordered by Commissioner John A.
Scott, in Repine vs. Pennsylvania
railroad, an Indiana county case.
The Board in an opinion by Com
missioner James W. Leech, termi
nates compensation in Doktor vs.
Ellsworth Colleries Company, be
causo it is found that the claimant
suffered from _jnt'antile paralysis and
disability is due to that disease and
not to an accident.

Prince Eiiel Guarded by
Loyal Troops; Machine Guns
Guard His Belgian Refuge
By Associated Press
Brussels. Nov. 18.—Dressed in
civilian attire, the correspondent
slipped through the lines before the
German soldiers evacuated Brussels
and spent two hours in the city. At
that time no Allied soldiers had trod
the streets of the Belgian capital.
The correspondent found the cap
ital calm and expectant, awaiting the
departure of the unwelcome guests
and the arrival of King Albert's
soldiers.
The disorders of the early days of
the week were over. General Von
Falkenhausen, who has been govern
or general of Belgium, has disap
peared. Prince Eitel Frederick, son
of the former German emperor, still
was at Louvain on Wednesday, be
ing guarded by 100 faithful soldiers.
Machine guns were mounted about
the house where he was staying and
were trained on the Jesuit College
nearby. Prince Eitel feared he would
be kidnaped by treacherous German
soldiers.
The German soldiers' committee is
holding meetings in the Senate
Chamber. It is a heterogeneous
gathering. Unwashed privates fra
ternize with monocled officers. Baron
Von Der Lanchen, civil governor of
Brussels during German occupation,
is a conspicuous member of the com.
mittee.
Don't Gamble
With Your
Health
If You Have a Cold and Neg
lect It You Are Taking
Chances of Pneumonia
Got a cold and decided to let it
wear off, have you ?
This neglect and taking chances
with colds is responsible for more
deaths than the whole list of dis
eases. It paves the way for all kinds
of disease, particularly pneumonia.
The cold settles down and attacks
the lining of the lungs-vthen it is
pneumonia.
Many "cough syrups" and "bal
sams" arc dangerous. Their only
effect is from opium and other nerve
deadening drugs they contain. It is
a temporary, stupefying effect, and
the cold remains just the same and
wears away the weakened body. It
only disappears when its place is
taken by a more serious disease
like pneumonia.
Take no chances. Begin today
taking Father John's Medicine which
has had more than sixty years of
success treating coids and coughs
without using alcohol or any dan
gerous nerve-deadening drugs. It
