grocers Are Advised
I to Drop War Prices;
W Consumers Hold OH
P Philadelphia, April 1. Realizing
' hat public sentiment has taken cog
nizance of the marked decrease in
wholesale grocery prices since the
signing of the armistice, while retail
prices have remained virtually sta
tionary. the Association of Manufac
turers' representatives is instituting
steps which members believe will give
the consumer the benefit of the whole
sale reductions.
Arthur C. Unger, president of the
association, sala yesterday that in the
face of falling prices the circulatory
system of the tri-state grocery mar

of goods on the shelves of the retailer.
Mr. Unger said that naturally the re
tailer did not wish to sell this accu-

Doesn't hurt bit and costs
only few cents
Drop a little Freezone on an ach
ing corn, instantly that corn stops
hurting, then you lift it right out.
Yes, magic!
A tiny bottle of Freezone costs
but a few cents at any drug store,
but is sufficient to remove every
hard corn, soft corn, or corn between
the toes, and the calluses, without
Boreness or irritation.
Freezone is the sensational dis
covery of a Cincinnati genius. It is
wonderful.
THIS WAR WORKER
Mri. Sara Hall, C 707 Woodland
five., Philadelphia, tells of the relief
that came to her through Tanlac. "I
suffered frcm stomach trouble, gas
tritis and diabetes. My appetite
would be awful, then I wouldn't
have anything for days. Gas would
form at a terrific pace whether I j
wouldn't eat or not. I soon began!
to look wan and thin like a shadow.
I was in a sorry plight witli little i
hope of ever being well again. I i
heard about Tanlac and my son had i
used three or four bottles with good
results. X bought some and grad
ually improved after the first few
doses. Later my recovery was quite
rapid. 1 couldn't sleep at all until I
took Tanlac." Tanlac is sold here at
Gorgas' drug store.

added, the goods must be kept moving

that because the public is growing

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
I "The Live Store" _ x "Always Reliable" I
Cepyrig bt 1919. The House o t Kuppcalirimcf
I They're Making a Hit
We made no mistake when we predicted that there
would be a greater demand for new "Spring Clothes" than ever before. The
Happy Spirit of the coming Springtime dictated a greater dress-up time. Business is on
II very good terms with this "Live store" and is finding its way to Doutrichs as never before.
We have just finished March with a thirty per cent, increase over the same month last
year, so you see Business is very, very good at Doutrichs.
One of the causes for our increased business is the growing popu
larity of the Doutrich service and the greater values obtained Here. Then to see the vast
number of men "coming back" from the victorious conquest in which they so nobly won honor for their
country, who favor this "Live store" as a trading center in this community. Wish you could count the boys
in Khaki and Navy who exchange their clothes for civilian dress at Doutrichs every day in the week—you'd
see where a big part of our business is coming from. -,
Since the announcement of our spring opening, this
"Live store" is more lively than usual because it is filled with lively, enthus
iastic crowds who are coming here to buy the new Spring clothes we are showing. The
new waist-seam models that we are having such a rush for are making the biggest hit. All
you need do is try one on, a glance at the mirror and it's sold. You've heard a lot about
jp this popular style, but the season is just beginning; so you will hear a great deal more
I about these Doutrich styles in the next few weeks.
