PESTHOUSE IS
CONDEMNED AGAIN
[Continued from first J'age.]
shack which a previous speaker has
properly referred to as a pesthouse
and which you maintain for the pur
pose on the outskirts' of the city."
Dr. Stokes warned the people that
■such a hospital as should be erected
will cost a lot of money, but it will
be well worth the investment If con
structed along modern lines and its
management kept free from politics.
He advocated a building in which
there would be the maximum of sun
light and fresh air with as nearly
as possible separate rooms for the
patients, instead of open wards.
Many* patients in one room consti
tute a menace to each other, he said,
and it is not fair to put them into
such close oontact with each other
that the patient who goes to the hos
pital with one disease contracts
others while a patient there. The
diagnosis for the same reason must
be accurate and careful and the sani
tary precautions the best that mod
ern science can devise. Every room
should have its own sink, he said,
and the cost of glass and plumbing
should be the biggest item of ex
pense in construction. Therer should
be no stint in the up-keep, Dr.
Stokes said, for the reason that the
patient forced to go to the institu
tion for treatment demands the most
careful treatment.
The lecture was concluded with a
series Of stereoptlcon views showing
modern hospitals over the United
States and following the luncheon a
conference was held which was at
tended by city and county officials,
members of the Chamber of Com
merce, physicians and others inter
ested. President George S. Relnoenl
Introduced at the outstart Arthur D.
Bacon, of the Chamber of Commerce
contagious disease hospital commit
tee, who presided. The luncheon
was attended by as many persons*
as could be crowded into the big ball
room and many others who Occupied

Promise Early Decision
in Wage Advance Case
The chief executives of the four
"railroad brotherhoods issued the
following statement upon their re
turn from a trip to Washington re- J
garding the organizations' wage re
quests:
"The director general of railroads;
has given the chief executives of the j
four transportation brotherhoods as
surance of the earliest possible de- j
vision by him in reference to wage |
requests presented to the board of j
railroad wages and working condi- ]
tions last October. ,
"Such decision is not possible be
fore March 1 next, but the benefits
of such decision are to be under
stood as in full force and effect at
tliis time, and the delay in issuing
final decision by the director general
has been absolutely unavoidable.
"The assurance that the benefits j
of such order, when issued, are in j
effect at this time should suffice to :
stop any unrest or agitation caused j
<n account of delay."

DIVISION USED
1,526 WOMEN TO
REPLACE MALES
More to Be Employed Than
During Pre-War Times;
Some to Go
The middle division of the Penn- j
sylvania Railroad, had a total of
1526 women in its service on Jan-|
uary 1, reports just Issued by offi
cials tell. These figures are believed
to represent what will stand as the
high water mark on the division
for the emergency created by tbe
war. Few women had either been
added or removed for more than a
month previous to that time, and no
more are now being employed.
Of the total number of women
employed on the division, the
Various offices and shops of the Al
toona shop departments had 629
women employed on January 1.
This included 485 clerks and typists,
forty-five storehouse employes, fifty
nine laborers, thirty-one messengers
four janitresses, three tinsmith
helpers and two upholsterers.
The remainder of the middle
division has 89 7 female workers,
divided as follows: Clerks and
office girls, 505; storehouse attend
ants, 82; 4-.nr oPea'ners, 42; mes
sengers, 19; crossing watehwomen,
-1 • janitresses, 61; shop laborers,
97; maintenance of way laborers,
23; sweepers, 13; matrons, 5;
printing machine operators, 5; tle
plione operators, 34,
Not Good Track Workers
The number of maintenance of
way laborers has beon steadily de
creasing from month to month, as
none have been employed for sev
oral months and as a rule those who
were thus employed did not remain
ut the work very long. Some negro
women have stuck to this work bet
ter than the white women. Rail
road men generally agree that this is
no work for women, no matter how
vihlng they may bo for the employ
ment. There is much of the work in
this connection which is too heavy
for a woman; about the most that
cu n ho expected of them is to clean
up around the tracks, in the other
positions they have usually gotten
along very well.
Since the signing of the armistice
on November 11. very few women
have been employed by the company
none probably in a laboring capaeitv
while on the other hand, there has
been a decrease in the number, al
though 1,0 general orders have been
issued for their discharge; thev have

London, Jan. 27.—Indust i(ial fer
ment -continues. - Another -confer
ence of the railway union, represent
ing nearly the whole kingdom, was
held in London yesterday, and a
strong feeling was expressed regard
ing tlie government's "continued neg
lect to deal adequately" with the

Another meeting of S.OOO persons

Heated Pens Cause Pigs
Fed on Refuse to Die,
Say Garbage Collectors
Members of the firm of Hagy
Brothers, contractors for garbage
collection in Harrisburg, have been
asked Vy a representative of the
Wilkes-Barre Disposal and Pig
Farm Company, doing the same
work In Wilkes-Barre, to explain the
cause of the death of so many garb
age-fed pigs.
One of the members of the local
collecting firm said that it is likely
pigs which are kept in concrete pens
in an artificially heated building
such as is used in Wi!kos--Barre be
come more susceptible to pneu
monia. The Hagy Brothers pens
are frame and are not heated.
City offloials are interested in
this development in the piggery
method for garbage disposal, as the
contract which was awarded to
Hagy Brothers a year ago requires
them to have a piggery constructed
similar to the one in use in Wilkes-
Barre.
The contractors here declare that
the frame pens and open-air method
of caring for the pips is less harm
ful to the animals than closed con
crete pens in heated buildings. They'
said the death rate in their pens!
was about two per cent, while the |
Wilkesßarre representative statedj
the deaths tliei;e are reaching an
alarming total.
It was also explained by the local I
contractors that pigs which are fed i
on garbage should not bo given j
grains or fodder, as a mixture of the
two causes indigestion, as they have j
made experiments and secured such !
jesults. It is said a number of i
farmers who had been feeding both j
garbage and grain to pigs had been ;
experiencing much trouble with the 1
porkers until they discontinued j
feeding the animals anything but]
wahte foods.
MAW ENGINES DELIVERED

Thousands Have Discovered
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets
| are aHarmless Substitute i
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets—the sub-,
stitute for calomel—are a mild but sure,
laxative, and their effect on the liver ia
almost instantaneous. They are there-!
suit of Dr. Edwards's determination not i
to treat liver and bowel complaints with
calomel. His efforts to banish it brought
out these little olive-colored tablets. i
The pleasant little tablets dothe good
that calomel does, but have no bad after
effects. They don't injure the teeth like
strong liquids or calomel. They take
hold of the trouble and quickly correct it. l
Why cure the liver at the expense of the
teeth? Calomel sometimes plays havoc
with the gums. Sodo strong liquids. It
is best not to take calomel, but to let Dr.'
Edwards' Olive Tablets take its place.'
Most headaches, "dullness" and that
lazy feeling come from constipation and
a disordered liver. Take Dr. Edwards'
Olive Tablets when you feel "loggy"and
"heavy." Note how they "clear"clouded
brain and how they "perk up" the spirits.
