Mr. James H. Allen suffered for
years with rheumatism. Many times
this terrible disease left him helpless
and unable to work.
He finally decided, after years of
ceaseless study, that no one can be
free from rheumatism until the ac
cumulated impurities, commonly call
ed uric acid deposits, were dissolved
in the joints and muscles and ex
pelled from the body.
With this idea in mind he consult
ed physicians, made experiments and
finally compounded a Iprescription
that quickly and completely banish
ed every sign and symptom of rheu
matism from his system.
He freely gave his discovery to
others who took it, with what might
be called marvelous success. After
years of urging he decided to let suf
ferers everywhere know about his
discovery through the newspapers.
George A. Gorgas has been appoint
ed agent for Allenrhu in this vicin
ity with the understanding that he
will freely leturn the purchase
money to all who state they received
no benefit.

Heal Skin Diseases
" "
It is unnecessary for you to suffer
with eczema, blotches, ringworm, rashes
and similar skin troubles. A little zemo,
obtained at any drug store for 35c, or
SI.OO for extra large bottle, and prompt
ly applied will usually give instant relief
from itching torture. It cleanses and
soothes the skin and heals quickly and
effectively most skin diseases.
Zemo is a wonderful, penetrating,
disappearing liquid and is soothing to
the most delicate skin. It is not greasy,
is easily applied and costs little. Get
it today and save all further distress.

THURSDAY EVENING,
BELL WILL GET
AUTOMATICS
Vice-President Kinnard An
nounces Extensive Plans
For Company at Hearing
Hearing on the Bell Telephone
Company's application to continue
the Federal telephone rates in Penn
sylvania after December 1 before
the Public Service Commission de
veloped the interesting information
late yesterday afternoon that the
Bell company had placed orders for
| automatic telephones, but that it
i would be a couple of years before
they could be installed. This came
out during examination of L. H.
Kinnard, vice-president and general
manager of the company, the wit
ness the company presented to in
form the Commission regarding the
reasons for the continuance.
Mr. Kinnard asked the Commis
sion to make a fair valuation of the
company's properties and then fix a
reasonable rate of return. He sug
gested $90,000,000 as a valuation and
8 per cent as the return. Commis
sioner James S. Benn contended that
from some of the figures submitted
the company was now asking about
17 per cent, but this was not agreed
to by the company official who point
ed to changes in valuations. During
questions on the reasons for the mil
lions set aside for the next three or
four years the fact that the com
pany intended to install automatics
was developed.
These facts and sheets of carefully
i prepared estimates and figures show
ing that the traffic cost of the Bell
Telephone Company's service in
Pennsylvania had advanced from
17% cents to 35 cents out of every
dollar expended between 1914 and
1919 and that cost of supplies had
gone up over 62 per cent in the
same period together with a declara
tion that further wage increases
were to be looked for either this fall
or next winter were the salient fea
tures of the testimony.
Three-Fourths of Returns
Show Leslie Forces
Ahead in Allegheny
Pittsburgh. Sept. 18. —Returns
from more than three-fourths of the
districts in Allegheny county yester
day indicate that the 1. lie candi
dates, rivals of the anti-Leslie fac
tion in the Republican party, are in
the majority in receiving nomina
tions for county offices at yesterday's
primary election. Indications were
that A. C. Gumbert and Captain
Robert S. Cain, both Leslie men,
were assured of the Republican
nominations for county commission
er. Other indicated nominations
were:
For register of wills, William Con
ner, (incumbent): clerk of courts,
John Douglas, Jr., anti-Leslie; county
treasurer, Joseph G. Armstrong, Les
lie; county recorder, John D. Gra
ham, Leslie; prothonotary, John
Vogt; county controller John P.
Moore.
Great Eve! Girls Wear
, Too Much, Says Doctor
New York, Sept. 18—The modern
women are "cocoon women." declared
Miss Eatclle Bertine, of New York,
specialist In gymnastics, before the
international conference of women
physicians here.
Far from being thinly clad as many
critics of the modern women would
have the public believe, the girl of to
day wraps herself in superfluous
clothing and activities and will not
"come out of the cocoon" for fear of
losing the friendship of her men
friends. Miss Bertine said.
"The American women are lazy," Miss
Bertine told the conference: "slothful,
too vain to be sensible, and neglectful
of their own health.
"But tli c worst of it is," she added,
"that they don't want exercise. They
are afraid that if they become ath
letic they will lose their popularity
with the men and they are afraid
that if they wear clothes in which
they could exercise they will look
mannish. They are too vain."
John C. Soutter Making
Important Changes to Store
John C. Soutter, owner of Soutter's
Twenty-live Cent Department Store,
has closed negotiations with the own
ers of the Hotel Carlton, whereby he
has secured possession of the old
passageway from Court street to the
hotel, which has divided the building
occupied by the store, about midway
between Market street and Blackberry
street.
This passageway, which for years
has p.ovided an ont.'tn .a to what was j
formerly the old White Hall Hotel,
and in more recent years the Carlton
has beep a malt-sr of inconvenience
and a handicap to those who have
done business in the building. Its
removal, providing a continuous store
room from front to rear of the store
will mean much not only to the store
but to patrons as well.
Contractors are busy now on alter
ations to the store involving the re
moval of this passageway, which will
provide additional room for various
first floor departments and increased
facilities for the comfort of the shop
ping public. The central stairway to
the upper floors will be removed,
elevator service will be installed, and
other alterations carried out which
will completely change the interior
appearance of the store and add to
its attractiveness and advantages.
