To Banish Wrinkles and !
Freshen Up Quickly
After a strenuous day outdoors, j
when winds, heat and exhaustion j
have combined to take away one's j
freshness and caused the skin to j
wrinkle and sag—or after a tedious j
or fretful day indoors—one often I
has urgent need for some quick re- j
juvenator. Maybe there's a dance;
on for the evening, er some other j
social event. How in the world can ;
one make herself presentable, look- i
ing as she does? It's quite easy. !
Just get an ounce of powdered j
saxolite and a half pint witch hazel !
at the nearest drug store, mix the ;
two and bathe the face in the solu- :
tion for two or three minutes. Then
look into your mirror and behold ;
the wonderful transformation! '
Wrinkles have vanished, loose, tired
muscles have been rested and
"firmed up." marks of fatigue have
flown, and ' you look so much
brighter and younger you can hard
ly believe your eyes. No one need
hesitate to try this, the witch hazel
and saxolite being so perfectly
harmless.
An E,xtra Large
Bottle of Famo
for One Dollar
For a dollar you can buy at any
toilet goods counter a full 12-ounce
bottle of Famo.
Many hair' tonics charge more
for a bottle that is one-third
smaller.
This means that you can use
Famo e\cry day for little more
than half of what it would cost for
some preparations.
And Famo actually does what no
other hair treatment will do.
It attacks Seborrhea, the cause
of dandruff, and stops the sebor
rhean flow that causes the dandruff
scale.
Famo ends falling hair and itch
ing scalp. It makes the head as
sweet and clean as a baby's.
Famo contains no alcohol to
cause scalp and hair dryness. It
postpones grayness by making and
keeping the hair healthy.
The regular daily use of Famo
makes the hair soft and luxuriant
and gives it a beautiful gloss and
sheen.
Every one in the family should
use Famo every day.
Sold at all toilet goods counters
in two sizes 35 cents and sl.
Seborrhea is a morbidly increased flow
from the sebaceous glands of the scalp. The
eeborrhean excretion forms '■ scales and
Wakes and is commonly knovon as dandruf,

his parents moved to the United
States and located at Hollidayshurg.

men who traveled over the old Port- ;
age railroad, to and from Hollldays- j
burg. His trips took him to Balti- j
more, Philadelphia. New York. Wil- \
mington, Pittsburgh, and other l
points.
In 1859 he accepted a position as
brakeman on lhe Middle division
of the Pennsy, and six months later
was made a conductor, which posi
tion he held until his retirement <l6 I
years ago. His stories of early rail- ;
road life in Pennsylvania were quite '
interesting. He was one of the |
pioneers who had charge of the first j
freight trains running between Har- j
risburg and Altoona.

daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Christian
Schreadley of Hummelstown, and

Since that time he has remained j
close to his home, where he was ;
visited by his many friends and fel- J
low veterans.

Department, the Veteran Employes ,
Association of the Middle division ,

Retired Veterans Association or the |
Pennsylvania railroad': 'and one of |
the oldest members of Bayard Lodge j
No. 150 Knights of Pythias, and
Dauphin Lodge No. 160, Independent (
Order of Odd Fellows of this ctt>. |
He was an interesting character and ,
being of the old school "
vania railroad employes his knol

Newspaper Canvass Shows
Sammy Schiff Won From
Tiplitz in Six Rounds
In detailing the recent defeat of
Eddie Welsh, of Bristol, by Joe Tip
litz, of Philadelphia, certain news
papers made the statement that Tip
litz had beaten Sammy Schiff when
they met at the National Club a
couple month ago. The mistake was
takep up by the Police Gazette and
a canvass made shows that every
sporting writer who saw the battle
gave it to Schiff, and the Harrisburg
south-paw boxer is now officially
credited with victory over Tiplitz.
Some of the comments were: "In
the semiwindup Eddie McAndrews
had the better of young Joe Borrell
In six rounds; in the other bouts,
Sammy Schiff beat Joe Tiplitz." An
other newspaper account said:
"Sammy Schiff, Harrisburg's leading
representative in the featherweight
list, gained a popular decision over
Joe Tiplitz, of Brooklyn, in a six
round bout at the National Athletic
Association in Philadelphia." In all,
Sammy Schiff has ten or twelve
clippings to prove that he won this
decision without any question. Schiff
is training at present with a view to
taking on some hard bouts in Sep
tember and October.

women.
One of the prize winners was a
woman, Mrs. F, M. Nafus. She is the
only woman field representative on
the Elliott-Fisher force. Since she
was employed and assigned to a ter
ritory, she has sold and installed
more bookkeeping and accounting
machines than many of the male
members of the force.
The prizes are classified into four
groups—los per cent, of quota, 125
per cent., 150 per cent., and 175 per
cent; and over. Several of the sales
men exceeded the 175 per cent,
mark. A Flint, Mich., representa
tive made 2,Tx>7 per cent, of his May
quota with one sale of bookkeep
ing machines to the Buick Motor
Car Company. A Chicago salesman
earned 262 per cent, of his quota on
a single sale to a large public serv
ice company.
On June 30th, the last day of
the prize contest, a Washington rep
resentative sent in an order for
forty-five bookkeeping machines for
keeping stock records in govern
ment navy yards. This order reach
ed the factory just in time to put
this salesman among the prizewin
ners. Another order from the gov
ernment for one hundred machines
| for writing income tax bills and tax
payers' ledger accounts helped sev
eral salesmen to qualify for prizes.
TO COLLECT TAX
C. E. Weber, tax collector for the
city school district, announced that
the office on the second floor of the
Courthouse will be open to-night,
and Tuesday and Wednesday even
ings, so that delinquents who have
not paid the 1918' occupation and
property taxes, can do so at that time
in case they are working during the
day. School tax statements for 1919

I "The Fear Woman," a picture that Is
entirely different from the ordinary

the Victoria Theater
At the Victoria, is considered one of
the greatest motion
pictures along this line that has ever

unique way. She is an unwilling
inmate of the resort, and Fatty un

this the funniest comedy in which
"Fatty" haa ever appeared.
On the same program to-day and
to-morrow Is Bryant Washburn in
"Something To Do." Audiences have
gotten so. used to seeing Bryant
Washburn in roles depicting the
"easy guy" that they are going to be
considerably surprised when they
see him In this production in which
he isn't a soft guy at all. but a lively
active young fellow who manages to
mix into and clean up u lot of com
plicated scraps.
The bill at the Paxtang Park The
ater for this week offers many fea
tures that sug-
The Show at Paxtang gest an excel
lent show for
the park playhouse. Glllett's monkeys
will be the feature attraction In
what is probably, one of the funniest
Simian acts on the stage. Mr. Glllett
calls his act Monkey Shines in a
Bowling Alley, in which he intro
duces Adam and Eve, the only mon
key bowlers In the show business.
These two star monkeys are as
sisted by a troupe of four handed
comedians that are putting over
some new stunt every minute they
are on the stage. K1 Uota, America's
foremost xylophone artist, will play
a return engagement at the park this
week. El Cota has played Harris- 1
burg many times, is always a wel- |
I come visitor among those who en
joy good music.
Mason and Gwynne, two exception-!
ally clever black-face comedians,
will be seen in a most laughable
comedy sketch entitled "As in the
South Lady." This is an act that
will surely please those who ap
preciate real negro humor.
Others that will be seen on the
park bill this week are Belle Costel
1° in character songs and Green and
Adams, comedy acrobats.
On Thursday evening there will be
another big free fireworks display at
Paxtang. During the past few sea
sons fireworks shows have been a
regular attraction at the park, and
one that seems to be highly appreci
ated by the public. The displays in
the past have been first class ex
amples of the pyrotechnic art and al
ways draw large crowds.
