Says Dr. Edwards, a Well-Known
Ohio Physician
Dr. F. M. Edwards for 17 years treated
scores of women for liver and bowel ail
ments. During these years he gave to
his patients a prescription made of a
few well-known vegetable Ingredients
mixed with olive oil, naming them
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets. You will
know them by their olive color.
These tablets are wonder-workers on
the liver and bowels, which cause a
normal action, carrying off the waste
and poisonous matter in one's system.
If you have a pale face, sallow look,
dull eyes, pimples, coated tongue, head
aches, a listless, no-good feeling, all out
of sorts, inactive bowels, you take one of
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets nightly for
a time and note the pleasing results
Thousands of women as well as men

Coal Yards
Yard No. 3
"Camp Curtin Yard"
A COAL yard at each end of the city and
one in the center gives us an unusual
opportunity for quick efficient service.
Camp Curtin Coal Yard is located at 7th & Wood
bine Streets. Here cars of coal are automatically
unloaded by machinery. No hard hand labor
easy on men easy on tempers.
The bins are erected high above the wagons;
a gate is opened and out comes the coal, goes over
a large screen, the dirt is removed, wagons loaded
quickly, delivery promptly made.
Most coal dealers sell good coal
they must to stay in business; but there
may be a big difference in the way it is
handled.

ward business chat. You all heard
Mr. Leland explain what had been
done by the national housing com
mission. He ouellned well ground
ed principles in that address which
would not do In their entirety for
Harrisburg, but which may be given
local application."
Mr. Bailey then said that the first
question to be asked is: "Does the
need for houses hero exist," and he
answered it for himself by saying
that unquestionably it does. But
he said he doubted if anybody, aside
from possibly trained real estate men
like Hernnin P. Alilier, knew whether
the demand is for houses of SIO,OOO,
SIO,OOO, $5,000 or 1,500 value or
for apartment houses. Likewise, it
is not definitely known whether the
desire is l'or houses in the lower end
of the city, on the Hill or in tho
West End.
To go about solving the problem
in an intelligent manner we must
first iearn just what it is necessary
to do, he said, and to that end he
suggested a survey be made, either
by local authorities or by recognized
experts from the outside. He re
called that back in 1901 when the
city was about to undertake its big
public improvement campaign, ex
perts of national reputation were
called in to ascertain needs and
costs along various lines and he
suggested the need for some such
arrangement with respect to hous
ing.
Mr. Bailey said there are several
ways in which the need for houses
might be met. First, individuals
might build; second, contractors
might meet the scarcity by going
into buildings on a comparatively
large scale, and, third, the problem
might be solved by co-operative
building. The time is here, Air. Bai
ley said, when ho believes the co
operative plan to bo tho most feas
ible.
"The Governor says there are not
enough houses to meet the require
ments of state officials being
brought here, but we don't know
just what class of houses these peo
ple will desire. Let us assume, for
argument, that there is need for five
$15,000 houses. What individual
will go down into his own pocket to
make this investment?. None, I as
sume. But the way might be found
through co-operative effort, just as
we found a way to build the Penn-
Ifarris Hotel. Alany Harrisburg men
would put cash into such a corpora
tion," said Air. Bailey.
The speaker urged that money
making be made the secondary con
sideration of such an enterprise. The
thing is too big to be undertaken by
any one man. The object of the
proposed corporation would be to
meet the need first; profits would be
secondary consideration. It is not
the purpose to use this company to
drive out the real gstate man, tho
builder or the contractor, Air. Bai

were large numbers of patriotic Har
risburg people who would put money

all needs, pointing out that with
that sum at hand it would be easv

I The employes of the Elliott-Fisher
I Typewriter Company who forgot all
about bookkeeping by machinery
while they had an uproariously good
time at the Central Y. At. C. A. Sat
urday evening, are wondering when
another openhouse for them will be
planned. They declare that the affair
was a in every way.
Included in the entertainment
were pipe organ selections, moving
pictures, comedians, a double male
quartet, piano selections, speeches,
contests, gymnasium stunts, and a
buffet lunch.
The Elliott-Fisher band, contain
ing twenty-five pieces, made its first

offices all over the country. He said
he was confident that the Elliott-

times the acreage it does at present.
Theater Man May Be
Fined For Painting Signs
on Business Properties
"Some one from the Victoria The
ater certainly must come into court
this afternoon and pay a fine for
defacing the property of merchants
' along Ma'rket street," declared Chief
of Police Wetzel, emphatically this
morning. # Mr. Wetzel called Athens
George, proprietor of the theater,
to the police station this morning,
and told him that either he or his
brother, James George, who Athens
said is the manager, must answer
the charge in police court.
The charge is made that in order
to advertise a certain picture, ad
vertising was scrawled across the
display windows of Market street
business houses Saturday night. Sev
eral merchants and bankers com
plained to the police of the depreda
tions.
"They even advertised their pic
ture on my building," complained
Peter Magaro, manager of the Re
gent. The police cited an act of
June 8, 1881, which makes any one
who paints on, or causes to be paint
ed on, another person's property, any
advertising without the owner's con
sent, liable to a fine of 525 or 30 days
In prison.

75 Poles Used by Light Co.
to Come Down After April 1
About seventy-five poles in the
business district of the city will be
removed during the coming months,
beginning April 1, by the Harrisburg
Light and Power Company accord
ing to plans discussed with City
Electrician Clfirk E. Diehl, he an
nounced, to-day.
Removal of these poles and the
overhead wires connected to them
has been planned for some time by
the company but could not be done
until cable for the underground sys
tem was received here. This ma
terial is in the city now and if
weather conditions permit it may
be possible to start the work at an
earlier date than April 1, but it is
not thought likely that the com
pany will start before that tinje.
ROB CIGAR STORE
Thieves last evening broke into
the Toomey cigar store, Seventh and
Harris streets, and stole a quantity
of ciragets and other tobacco.
M ARCH 3, 1919.

But don't think
that all
ice cream factories are equipped with as
up-to-date facilties as is the Hershey Cream
ery Company's plant.
There is a great deal of ice cream sold all
over the United States, and much of it is
made in ordinary shops or factories, where
there isn't a bit of attention paid to the sani
tary condition of the factory or to the men
who make the ice cream, or to anything else
about the place.
*
It would be a revelation to you to start
out some day and visit ice cream factories
in many localities.
It would certainly be a satisfaction to you
to go through the plant of the Hershey
Creamery Company.
It isn't any wonder that HERSHEY'S SU
PERIOR ICE CREAM is forging ahead in
popularity. There certainly must be a differ
ence between other ice cream and HER
SHEY'S SUPERIOR ICE CREAM when the
business of this concern is going ahead at a
great pace.
Mr. Hershey then explained the next step
in the process.
Said he, "From the homogenizer the
mixture is conducted through these sanitary
pipes and valves into the big holding vat.
There it is kept at a low temperature, 40 de
grees, before it goes to the freezer."
"What are those coils in that vat?" asked
the Ad man.
"Those," replied Mr. Hershey, "are coils
which turn around on an axle and keep the
mixture agitated while it is being cooled.
The cooling medium is conducted through
the coils and brings the temperature of the
mixture down to 40 degreed ,
"I suppose you put the flavor in now,"
said the Ad man, making a guess at the next
step.
"Well you are pretty nearly right," re
plied Mr. Hershey. "We put the flavor in
now, and then the mixture is again conduct
ed through another set of sanitary pipes and
valves to the freezer.'
"But before you see the process from here
on, I want you to see a little room over there
on the other side of the'building."
The two men walked the full length of the
big factory, and down a stairway to a large
door that was securely closed and further
protected by a padlock.
In a big plant like that of the Hershey
Creamery Company, you would wonder what
could be hidden away in a room, the door to
which, would be so well secured against
intrusion.
Mr. Hershey stopped before that large
door, feached for his bunch of keys, the
while remarking, "I'm going to show you
something in this room that represents one of
the most interesting parts of our business."
As Mr. Hershey opened the big door, the
two men stepped inside.
