State's New Geologist Plans to
Go Into Reports of Coal
and Minerals
Arrangements for starting immedi
ate inquiries into reports of new
coal and mineral deposits and to seek
i stone for State road building projects
as well as new supplies of building
stone have been made by Dr. Oeorge
,H. Ashley, the new Pennsylvania
State Geologist, who has been re
ceiving numerous requests for in
' formation on natural resources of
the State. The State Highway De
partment and the State Board of
Public Grounds and Buildings, the
latter in charge of the new State
Memorial bridge to be constructed
tin this city, have requested that
stone resources be looked up. Dec
orative stone will also be Investi

tq take, up at the present time a
survey oi the State as a matter of
economy and that the plan Is to
make public the results of the study.

TUESDAY EVENING,
depends on the nee of Its natural
resources. It wonld be difficult, If
not Impossible, to develop a high
state of civilization in any sense
without fertile soils or varied and
abundant mineral resources. It is
from these.things that the wealth
of a state is derived. If you will
compare different states or nations
you will find that all great states
or nations have abundant mineral
resources,. Pennsylvania is the in
dustrial Titan of America because
of her vast stores of mineral wealth
—coal, clay, iron and all the rest.
"But in the second place, a nation
or a state must not only possess
valuable minerals; she must know
what she has and where it can be
found and likewise something of Its
valfte. Unfortunately, moet metals
do not occur in the earth as metals
but as ores which seldom have any
resemblance to the metals obtained
from them, and which cdfnmonly do
not look like metals at all. Techni
cal knowledge is necessary to recog
nize most of the ores and still more
knowledge Is required to judge of
their value. It requires technical
knowledge to judge whether a par
ticular ledge of stone will make a
good building stonA; whether a cer
tain bed of clay may make a durable
paving brick; how much coal there
may be under a certain area of land
and how deep It is and so on down
the llna
"Third, most of the valuable min
erals occur deep in the earth and
their presence is often determined
from observation made many miles
away. Twenty years ago, public
land was claimed as coal land only
when coal actually outcropped on the
40 acres or 160 acres Involved. To
day millions of acres of public lands
in the west are classed as coal lauds
and valued at all the way up to
J460 an which there is no
sign of coal, indeed. In many cases,
it is 40 or 60 miles to the nearest
showing of coal. The oil com
panies to-day are paying hundreds
of thousands of dollars to have
geologists locate their oil wells and
In locating these wells, it is neces
sary at times to apply knowledge
gained hundreds of miles away.
"It Is, therefore, not only neces
sary that a state to be great, have
an abundance and variety of mineral
resources and that some of her citi
zens have the technical knowledge
to recognize and locate these re
sources, but in view of the very
wide studies that must be made to
determine the position and presence
of most underground deposits, it be
comes-a matter of great economy to
have these broad studies made only
once by a public survey, and the
results of such studies given to all
the citizens of the State. Other
wise, the work must be done over
by one geologist after another. In
volving a great waste of time and
money and the results of their
work are turned over to their em
ploying companies to be used by
them to their private advantage."

Dizzy Wrecked His
Automobile
"Two years ago my stomach trou
ble got so bad that I was almost
constantly filled with gas. This
made me very dizzy at times. Last
Fall I was almost overcome by one
of these dizzy spells while driving
my car, and ran it into a telephone
pole, badly wrecking the car. A
friend recommended Mayr's Won
derful Remedy for my trouble. Since
taking the first dose V have steadily
Improved, and feel better now than
ever in my life." It Is a simple,
harmless preparation that removes
the catarrhal mucus from the intes
tinal tract and allays the Inflamma
tion which causes practically all
stomach, liver and Intestinal ail
ments, Including appendicitis. One
dose will convince or money re

DP HER STRENGTH
AFTER THE "FLU"
"Now I Have Not a Single Pain Nor
Ache,' Said Mrs, Byers
T suffered from stomach trouble
and nervousness for several years
and since having the 'flu' last fall
my condition has been worse than
1 hav !" ot ad the strength
to throw off the after-effects of the
flu. "
™is wa.s how Mrs. Mallnda Byers,
of 2727 Herr street, Harrisburg, Pa.,
described her condition and It Is
just the condition in which so many
people find themselves to-day. Aft
er the "flu," the system must be
cleansed, regulated and built up
again. •
After eating, I would suffer so
from gas that It would press around
my heart and cause pains in my
chest and arms." Mrs. Byers told.
There were so many things I could
not eat, and what I did eat never
tasted good, so I Just ate to keap
alive. Most of the time !• felt as If
I had a weight in the pit of my stom
ach.
'I read about Natonex and I was
interested when I learned that this
new medicine contained only the
pure Nature remedies we all know
about. I had my daughter get me
a box to see if It would build me up
as It had so many here.
"In Just a short time I could see
how Natonex was helping me. Aft
er only three days my stomach be
gan to be relieved. There was no
gas after eating and my food di
gested instead of fermenting.
"Gradually Natonex worked
through my system, cleansing and
purifying the organs. Then
oat anything I wanted. And sleep
—why, I slept splendidly. I was
even able to lie down and sleep in
the afternoon and get the rest that
built me up.
"I can truthfully say that T
haven't a pain nor an ache, and I
think that is something t6 say after
alt of my suffering."
If you are weak, run down and
nervous, purify and build your sys
tem with Natonex. Start this inex
pensive Nature treatment to-day
and you will quickly see the change
in health and appearance.
Natonex is especially recommenc
ed In Harrisburg by the Gorgas
Drug Company, 16 North Third
street, and la sold by leading drug
gists everywhere.—Adv.
