ganization
Some Reasons For
Joining P.R.R.Y.M.C.A.
It is a friend of railroad men.
It makes good at 300 division
points in North America.
A member in one railroad as
soc'ation is a member of all.
It is a great railroad brother
hood in whose membership will
be found members of all the
railroad brotherhoods.
The cost of membership is
slight compared with the satis
faction of being a member of a
thoroughly al've world-wide and
rapidly growing organization.
The "Y" is so broad that there
is a place in its membership for
every self-respect ng man who is
willing to bear his part of the
burden and become one of the
150,000 members of the Railroad
Young Men's Christian Associa
tions of North America by May
24. 1919.
The "Y" has the cordial sup
port nnd hearty commendation
ot' operating railroad officials,
brotherhood leaders and many
tens of thousands of the rank
and file of the railroad world;
in fact, of all who stand for the
best interests and welfare of
railroad men.
Army and Navy teams of the local
P. R. R. Y. M. 0. A. have reached
the century mark in the nation-wide
membership drive now on. "Couple
up" is heard throughout the city,
and especially in railroad circles. At
last night's meeting the leaders of
the two teams each claimed honors,
but the victor in this interesting bat
tle will not be known positively un
til Saturday n'ght.
At noon to-day a rousing meeting
was held at the Maclay street shops.
There was strong rivalry between
the Army and Navy workers in lin
ing up new members.
To-morrow the teams will follow
in the wake of the Philadelphia di
vision paycar, and when the .Mid
dle division cash distributors arrive
later in the week more skirmish
ing will he in order.
In his talk last night at the round
table session, following the lunch
eon, the general secretary, F. H.
Gregory, called attention to the need
for exploiting the good accomplish
ed by the local association. lie out
lined the many advantages offered
to members. He related with much
emphasis the great good accom
plished in producing many athletes
and to the fact that no local insti
tution has produced more basketball
stars than the Harris'burg p. R, R.
Y. M. C. A.
Reference was made to the troop
train service. Since July, 1917, as
sociation representatives have been
on 6,1 89 trains carrying troops to the
number of 3,717,400, and traveling
a total of 6,189,000 miles.
The picture features and screen
lecture last night in front of the
building in Reily street attracted a
crowd of 600. Rain cut this part
of the open air program and the
balance of the evening was taken up
in meeting prospective new mem
bers of the big auditorium.
Noonday meetings with short
talks will be continued until the
close of the week. At the session
to-night it is expected that several
soldiers from overseas will be on
hand with many interesting facts to
relate.

Doctor Tells How To Strengthen
Eyesight 50 per cent In One
Week's Time In Many Instances
A Free Prescription You Can
Have Filled and Use at Home
Philndelpliin, Pa. Do you wear
glasses? Are you a victim of eye
strain or other eye weaknesses? If
so, you will be glad to know that
according to Dr. Lewis, there is real
hope for you. Many whose eyes
were failing say they have had their
eyes restored through the principle
of this wonderful free prescription.
One man says, after trying it: "I
was almost blind; could not see to
read at all. Now I can read every
thing without any glasses and my
eyes do not water any more. At
night they would pain dreadfully;
now they feel iine all the time. It
was like a miracle to me." A lady
who used it says: "The atmosphere
seemed hazy with or without glasses,
but after using this prescription for
fifteen days everything seems clear.
I can even read fine print without
glasses." It is believed that thou
sands who wear glasses can now dis
card them in a reasonable time and
multitudes more will be able to
strengthen their eyes so as to bo
spared the trouble and expense of
ever getting glasses. Eye troubles
MORE RED BLOOD AND STEADIER
NERVES FOR RUN DOWN PEOPLE
The World Demands, Strong, Vigorous,
Keen-Minded, Men and Women
It has been said of Americans that they work their habits over
time.
Many become nervous and inefficient by 1 overwork.
By worry, despondency, social affairs, robbing brain and body
(of needed rest; excessive use of tobacco, indulgence in strong alco
holic drink—excesses of every kind that burn up the vital powers
so necessary in these trying times to make both men and women
fit to be of help to themselves and others.
It is time to be temperate in all things. The man or woman
with impaired nerves caused by impoverished blood lacks vigor,
the ambition, the endurance and the keen mind of those who avoid
excesses,
Tlmldness, despondency, fear, trembling bands, want of confidence and
even cowardliness, are due In a large measure to abused nerves.
People with plenty of red blood eorpoeclee and strong, healthy nervea have
no deairo to ohirk work snd lean on others for guidance and support.
There Is hardly a nerve-sliattered man or woman (unless of an organic
disease) In America today who cannot become alert and clear in mind; vigorous
and energetic in body iu a very few weeks and at trifling cost
To become strong and ambitious, to feel thst work fs not drudgery; to
have steady neryee, abandonee of rod blood and power of endurance; to bo net
only a man but ae men now go, a superman, you mast take seven tablets efi
Bio-feren every dsy for seven dsye—and take them faithfully.
Take two after each meal and one at bedtime and after seven days take
one only after meal unUl the supply Is exhausted.
Then If you feel that any claim made In this special notice Is untrue—"
your nerves are not twice as steady as before; If you do not feel ambitious,
more vigorous and keen-minded, the pharmacist who dispensed tho tablets to
you wUI gladly hand you back just what you paid for them.
Bio-feren Is without doubt the grandest remedy for nervous, rundown,
weak, anaemic men and women ever offered direct through druggists and to
not at ail expensive. All druggists la this city god vicinity have a supply on

tion: Go to an active drug storo
and get a bottle of Bon-Opto tab
lets. Drop one Bon-Opto tablet in
a fourth of a glass of water and al
low to dissolve. With this liquid
bathe the eye two to four times
daily. You should notice your eyes

Many hopelessly blind might have

Note: Another prominent Physician
to whom the above article wus sub

markable remedy. Its constituent in
gredients are well known to eminent
eye specialists and widely prescribed
by them. The manufacturers guaran
tee it to strengthen eyesight 50 per

be obtained from any good druggist

tions I feel should be kept on hand
for regular use in almost every fam
ily." It is sold in this city by H. C.
