"WONDER MEDICINE" FROM THE WEST COMES TO HARRISBURG Nu Vim, The Iron Weed Tonic That Created Such a Sensation by Relieving the Sick and Run-Down —Soon to Be Demon strated at Gorgas' - Drug Store "Out of .the west," like young Lochinvar, has come a remedy with a wonderful but well-earned repu tation. The sick, the ailing, the discour aged—rheumatic cripples—the weak, pale and poorly nourished—sufferers from stomach, kidney, liver and bowel disorders —have flocked to the western demonstrations of Nu Vim, listened to the testimony of their friends and fellow townsmen. Doubters have been convinced by the hundreds. They doubt no more, because they have seen in their own homes, on their own bodies, the proof that Nu Vim well deserves the name of "Wonder Medicine." Nu Vim's introduction In Phila delphia. Camden. Wilmington and other eastern cities has been fol lowed by seemingly impossible re sults, after all else had failed. Stories told by those who had suf fered hopelessly for years before Nu Vim came, are well-nigh incred ible. It will be a joyous day for the sick and suffering of Harrisburg when it is announced, "NU VIM IS HERE." Watch for that day—wait for it hopefully—go to these 'demonstra tions and be convinced' that there is a "Balm in Gtlcad" —a new health hope—a new promise of release from pain and illness even for the most downhearted und discouraged. Mark well the place—soon, very soon, the demonstrator of N'u Vint will be in Harrisburg at Uorgas' Drug Store. . ...

HAHJRISBURG TELEGItAPH CALLS 28TH BOYS "CRACK" DIVISION Pennsylvanians Always in Thickest Fighting, Says Returned Pastor Philadelphia, Feb. 17.—Pennsyl vania's Twenty-eighth (Iron) Divi sion became known as tlic "crack" division of the American army, a - cording to tho Rev. Robert P. Zeb | ley, who has returned to his home, j oJO4 Chestnut street, after almost j two years spent in Y. M. C. A. work t abroad. j "Wherever the lighting was most I furious and it seemed us if the Ger ■ mans might have a chance to break ; through or stem the American of j fensive the men of the Iron Division | were sent," ho said, j Mr. Zebley formerly was pastor |of v Grace Baptist Church, Camden. He was one of the fifty-seven "Y" workers on board the Oronsa when that ship was torpedoed. "I was with the Twenty-eighth Division at Camp Hancock," he said, "and the wonderful drive at Cha teau Thierry. Tho men went into action on the south side of the Maine in June and were lighting continuously as long ajs the Amer icans held the sector. | "At La Channel, where Quentin Roosevelt was shot down, the ground I changed hands eight times. The lighting was in the open, and there were no dugouts except holes just I big enough for a man to get in. These were mtjde by the boys about twenty-five or thirty yards apart as they climbed up the hill and finally held the ground. Eight Germans fell to every American. 1 was fol lowing along with the headquarters. Praises 107 th Artillery "X want to say a few words about the 107 th Field Artillery. The First battalion went out across the river Vesle right in front and brought back prisoners, the only incident of the kind 1 believe of the war. "The machine gun men did tre mendous work; sometimes food reached them once a day and some times not, but it made-no difference to their magnificent courage. Every bit of food iiad to bo taken over the river to Fismes and Fismette across a pontoon bridge at night under shell lire and machine gun tire. "The Y. M. C. A. men took sup plies to the machine gun battalion in the same way and under the same lire, and was highly commended af terward by the senior captain. "We went to the Argonne. In stead of resting after the live days' march the Twenty-eighth went right into thccenter of the forest, the in fantry supported by five times the usual artillery. The light artillery was right in the infantry trenches when the battle opened. "A French general said we would never get the Germans out, and a great english statesman declared that the Huns could not be driven out of the Argonne, but if this was done the battle was over. In a month the Germans were out of the Ar gonne and a month later the armis tice was signed." German Spike as Souvenir "LOok at this souvenir," said Doc tor Zebley. "It will give you some idea of what the Philadelphia and Pennsylvania boys were up against." The minister showed a four-prong iron spike, thousands of which, he said, were placed in front of the gun nests to throw down the Amer icans as they attacked. "What impressed me was the splendid spirit of brotherhood which was manifest among the men and officers. Cigarets and chocolate were served to the men. A great quantitv was given away, but the men in many cases insisted on paying for them. "Much of the criticism leveled at our work in France in general has been made by wounded men, who after being wounded never saw a Y. M. C. A. worker, because bv an arrangement with the Red Cross at the suggestion of the army the Red Cross took care of men after they were wounded." "The Salvation Army workers did splendid service. "We showed motion pictures at Chateau Thierry in two dugouts right in the front-line trenches. En tertainments were eonstantlv given just back of the artillery lines."

SENATORS MEAN TO SPEAK FREELY ON LEAGUE PLAN Mean to Take Wilson at His Word and Take Open Stand Washington, Feb. 17.—Before the end of the present week Republican leaders in the Senate intend to dis regard the President's appeal to keep their mouths shut about his League of Nations plan until ho reaches the United States and tries to convert the into his views.

Pennsylvania, acknowl edged diplomats and authorities on international affairs, scrupulously have refrained from precipitate com ment on the constitution of the pro posed league as cabled to tliis coun try. It is emphasized!that this was by no means because of the President's desire for silence by the Senate until the President's arrival in Washing ton, but was because they and some other Senators desire to obtain a thorough understanding and grasp of everything that is proposed in the league's constitution and then speak their minds freely and forcibly on the floor of the Senate. • Tlie Senate has given ample evi dence that it is sick and itred of "pussyfootifig" in arranging peace with the Central Powers.
