raising on Saturday at Starview, when

LOST HIS FALSE TEETH
IN BUSY BROADWAY
Man in Fur Coat Creates a Sen
sation at Forty-Third Street
Corner
People in the vicinity of Broadway
and 43d strtrt this noon were perplex
ed when they saw a well-dressed man,
Weighing about 350 pounds, wearing
an expensive fur overcoat on his hands
and knees in the middle of the uptown
car track.
Patrolman Patrick McDonald el
bowed his way through the crowd and
grabbing the man by the shoulder, ask
ed what was the matter with him. The
man got up and, pointing to his mouth,
mattered : _i a semi-intelligible manner
that he had lost his false teeth. He
■aid he believed they were iost in the
slot of the car track. Search by po
licemen, chauffeurs, bystanders, motor
men and conductors failed to reveal
the missing piece, and with great dis
gust the unknown man hailed a pass
ing taxi. His breadth being bigger
than the entrance of the taxi, he final
ly secured a large limousine and de
parted, giving instructions to drive
anywhere north.—N. Y. Eve. World.

This would not have happened if he
had used Dr. Wernet's Powder for
False Teeth, as it holds the teeth tight
in the mouth under all conditions, and
a costly, ugly public accident like this
would be impossible.
If your plate gets loose and drops,
to get instant relief use Dr. Wernet's
Powder for False Teeth. Keeps them
firm. Prevents sore gums. Not a denti
frice. It relieves sore gums and hard
ens them so they support the plate
and make it fit snug and firm while
the antiseptic qualities make it excel

teeth. Guaranteed by Wernet Dental

TUESDAY EVENING,
ROSE SHOW WILL BE COLORFUL
A ND FRA GRA NT SUCCESS; JUNE 6-7
Hundreds of Gardens Throughout City Will Contribute to
the Big Exhibition
THE SECOND Annual Rose Show
at the Y. M. C. A. rooms. Fri
day and Saturday, June 6 and 7,
is going to be a fragrant and color
ful success, for the rose-gardens of
this city will be robbed of their
choisest blooms to mkae it so—at
least, so the entry cards indicate. One
rose enthusiast, who has 'a large
rose garden near Middletown, will
have entries in many classes, und
as he has the reputation of having
the finest roses in his locality, the
city exhibitors will have to look to
their laurels.
The visitor to the Rose Show will be
greeted by all the old favorites and
many of the new roses that are just
making their debut before the public
—in fact,' some of them as yet un
named. Every color will be repre
sented, from the pure white of the
Frau Karl Druschki, the delicate
pink of the Lady Gay, the lovely yel
low of Mrs. Aaron Ward, to the deep
red of General Jacqueminot. The
public have been invited to send
flowers other than roses for display
purposes, which will add greatly to
the attractiveness of the show. The
florists displays will also be a note
worthy feature.
AS YOUNG AS
YOUR KIDNEYS
The secret of youth is ELIMINA
TION OF POISONS from your body.
This done, you can live to be a hundred
and enjoy the good things of life with
as much "pep" as you did when in the
springtime of youth. Keep your body
in good condition, that's the secret.
Watch tbe kidneys. They filter and
purify the blood, all of which blood
parses through them once every three
minutes. Keep them clean and in
proper working condition and you have
nothing to fear. Drive the poisonous
wastes and deadly uric acid accumula
tions from your system. Take GOLD
MEDAL Haarlem Oil Capsules and you
will always be in good condition. You
will feel strong and vigorous, with
steady nerves nnd elastic muscles.
GOLD MEDAL Haarlem Oil Capsules
are imported direct from the labora
tories at Haarlem, Holland.
They are a reliable remedy which
has been used by the sturdy Dutch for
over 200 years, and has helped.them
to develop into one of the strongest
nnd hearthiest races of the world. Get
them from your druggist. Do not take
a substitute. In sealed packages
three sizes.
All roses to be entered for com
petition must be delivered at tbe ex
hibition hall no later than 10:30 Fri
day morning:. After the entries have
been received, the committee on ar
rangements of the Woman's Advisory
Board will place them in vases, and
at 1:30 p. m. the judging will begin.
The judges will have no easy task,
for it will be hard to choose the most
beautiful rose in a certain class when
there are so many beauties displayed.
The names of the judges will be
given in to-morrow's papers.
Tickets, at 25 cents each, may be
procured at the following places: As
sociation rooms. Dives, Fomeroy, and,
Stewart, Bowman & Co., Astrich's
Rcse's, Berryhill Flower Shop, Alt
house Drugstore, 13th and Market
streets. Fountain Market Company,

o'clock, in Fahnestock' Hall. This
lecture will be illustrated by many

GIRLS PREPARED
FOR STUNT NIGHT
ON ISLAND PARK
Center of the Grandstand Re
served For Soldiers of
All Wars
Girls— Hundreds of them.
Stunts—Something doing every
minute.
Ono big program of surprises.
Scheduled to take place at Island
Park to-night.
If you do not know what is go
ing to happen to-night, you arc a
back number. "Stunt Night" is the
big bill and it will give the people
of Harrisburg something to talk
about for a long time.
This big entertainment will have
as participants girls representing
the city industries. There will be
ten different stunts and in some
stunts more than a hundred girls
will be in evidence. Nothing is
known definitely as to what these
stunts will be. That is a secret and
will remain so until 7.45 p. m. when
the surprise program starts. There
will be only one thing that will in
terfere and that is rain. Then the
big show takes place to-morrow
night or on the first dry night fol
lowing. This entertainment is free.
Seats For Veterans
The center of the grandstand has
been reserved for soldiers, sailors,
G. A. R. veterans and veterans of
the Spanish-American and other
foreign wars. All that is needed to
get one of these reserved seats is
a button, uniform or badge showing
the military organization.
There will be singing, music by
the Municipal Band and—but the
rest is not to be told until to-night.
This is one time when it can be
positively stated that the fair sex
can keep a secret. To stay away
from Island Park to-night will be
missing the greatest thing of the
kind offered this year.

Service, will direct the entire stag
ing of "Stunt Night," with the ex

The 20-Mule Borax Team will rumble out of the interesting past through Harrisburg's principal arteries, with all of the rugged investi
ture of those strenuous pioneer days in the Far West. Just as adventurous Southerners to reach the gold fields of California sailed
around Cape Horn, in '49, owing%to the lack of overland transportation facilities, so Death Valley miners had to design and use these
gigantic caravans to haul the crude borate mineral through 160 miles of pulsating torridity, 200 feet below sea level, to the nearest
railroad. The same mammoth vehicles you will see here were in actual use in the desert for many years.
