23 tn Six Years
There have been no less than
twenty-three commissioners since
the Commission was created in 1913.
The Commission has arranged
with the Pennsylvania and Reading
Railroads for the erection of uni
form crossing signs. A movement
in this direction was launched by
the Commission in 1917, when as
a result of numerous accident re
ports it was found that some stand
ard sign would be needed. John P.
Dohoney, investigator of accidents,
made a report on the subject which
was used as a basis for action in
the present case. The grade cross
ing elimination movement encoun
tered much railroad opposition at
first, but the companies have now
decided to meet the State's efforts.
An Allegheny county court decis
ion to the effect that the Public
Service Commission has no authority
to regulate the water rates of a
municipality when the municipality
owns and operates its own water
works will be appealed by the Com
mission to the Supreme Court.
Word of this decision which was
handed down in Pittsburgh by Judge
J. F. Carpenter, of the Allegheny
county common pleas, recently
caused considerable discussion at the
offices of the Commission. It was
rendered in the case of the Consoli
dated Ice Company, of Pittsburgh,
against the city of Pittsburgh, in
which the court held that the Com
mission has no jurisdiction in re
gard to the rates of a city.
Sustains Miners on
"Gob" Labor Grievance
By Associated Press.
Haste ton. Pa.. Oct. 10.— In a deci
sion handed down here, Charles P.
Nelll, of Washington, umpire of the
Anthracite Conciliation Board, sus
tained the grievance of miners at the
Jemryn colliery of the Hudson Coal
Company of Scranton. demanding pay
ment of 11.2947 per yard for working
in what are known as "gob" cham
bers. The company, they claimed, had
not given them this rate.
The award of the strike commission
failed to specify compensation for
I "gob" labor and the umpire rules that
the scale paid at nearby workings
should apply to the Jermyn case.
Splendid Way To
Reduce Your Weight
There is perhaps no one thing that
so plainly shows the passing of our
youth as the horrible tendency to put
on too much weight after we have
reached the age of 25 or 30 years
However young our faces may appear
the sagging, flabby figure and'forty
inch waist "gives us away."
The cause of this over stoutness is
that our stomachs convert the food
we eat Into fat because there Is not
enough oxygen in the blood to pro
duce a proper combustion to destroy
the excess fatty tissue. Fat people
will be pleased to learn of a simple
home method that is wonderfully ef
ficient in reducing weight, quickly
and easily without a starving diet,
violent massage or strenuous exer
cise. Go to any drug store and get
a box of Phynola; take five grains
after each meal and at bed time. This
treatment will often give quick re
lief from overburdening fat. Phv
nola taker, at meal time assists the
stomach in giving you the benefit of
the food you eat; at the same time
dissolves the fatty tissue from any
part of the body where there is exces
sive fat. By this method many have
reduced their weight a pound a day
and there is no ftabbiness left. Gorgas
the druggist. Keller's Drug Store"
George's Drug Store, J. Nelson Clark
or any druggist can supply you with
the genuine Phynola at a small cost.

"Knowing what Tanlac did for my
80-year-old mother, I immediately
decided to try it when catarrh and
indigestion begat? to get the best of
me," said W. L. Farnsworth, 1200
W. Montgomery ave., Phila. "I had
lost 34 pounds. Tanlac soon drove
the catarrh out of my system and
righted my stomach. I'm gaining
weight and feeling fine now."
Catarrh is the most frequent cause
of dyspepnia, Bright's Disease, deaf
ness and often- serious lung troubles.
Thousands have testified to Tanlac's
powers over this dreaded disease.
People suffering from droppings in
the throat, headaches, coughing up
of mucus, fullness of the head, gas
tritis, frequent sneezing and watery
eyes should immediately take Tan
lac, which is sold here by all lead
ing druggists.

Doubtless if you are a sufferer from
indigestion, you have already tried
pepsin, bismuth, soda, charcoal, drugs
I and various digestive aids and you
know these things will not cure your

I just try the effect of a little bisurat

i practically any druggist in either
! powdered or tablet form,
i Take a teaspoonful of the powder
or two compressed tablets with a

! and see what a difference this makes.

You will find that provided you

- mediately after a meal, you can eat
almost anything and enjoy it with
; out any danger of pain or discom

Hard Time to Get Government
Ownership Just
Now
Many persons now hold Pennsyl
vania Railroad stock. The impres
sion that Government ownership
would take the railroads from a few
millionaires, is all bosh according
to an article in a recent publication
of Leslie's. The article in part reads
as follows:
"Nothing could be further from
the facts. The Pennsylvania Rail
road has recently reached a new high
record in the number of stock
holders. August 1 the aggregate
number was 112,216. this being an
increase of more than 8,000 in a
year. The average holding is now
89 shares as against 106 shares two
years ago.
Many Shareholders
"The railroads of the country have
more than a million shareholders,
the number about equaling the num
ber of employes, yet the latter un
der the Plumb bill would take over
properties they do not own.
"Railroad security holders repre
sented by insurance companies and
their policyholders and savings
banks and their depositors aggre
gate 30,000,000 persons. None of
the great corporations, not even the
packers, are owned by a few. They
are managed by a few, which is es
sential if they are to be well man
aged, but the holders of their secur
ities are to be found in every village
and hamlet in the land."
Good Time Records on
Eastern Railroad Lines
The Allegheny district, which in
cludes the Reading Railway, Penn
sylvania, Jersey Central and twelve
other railroads, made a sp'|?ndid
showing during September. The
number of passenger trains operated
was 50,261. Those arriving on time
numbered 70,756, or a percentage of
88 per cent., while in the other
regional districts the percentage
ranged from 74.3 to 85 per cent.
Reading Officials Active
For No-Accident Drive
Reading Railway officials are
making every arrangement to in
augurate the "Nation-Wide Accident
Prevention Drive," and circulars are
now being sent out by the heads of
the different departments.
The latest, in part reads: "The
railroads are about to generate a
power that will not only exert a na
tional, but a world-wide influence.
This power, that it is proposed not
only to generate, but use, through
all educational agencies possible, is
'A Nation-Wide Accident Prevention
Drive," which will begin October 18
and continue until October 31.
"It is impossible to more than
glimpse the details of this great
campaign against accidents; suffice
it to say that it is to be an intensi
fied safety work in which we are
trying to enlist the hearty support
lof the clergy, the schools, the in
dividual, and by reaching back into
the fnmlly and society at large,
thereby add much to the happiness
and well being, through the preser
vation of priceless lives and limbs."
Suit Follows His
Dismissal From the
Columbia University
New York, Oct. 10.—Prof. J. Mc-
Keen Cattell brought suit in the Su
preme Court yesterday against Nich
olas Murray Butler, president, and
four other trustees of Columbio Uni
versity for $115,000 damages.
He had for twenty-six years been
professor of psychology at the uni
versity when he was dismissed for al
leged disloyalty to the government.
His son, Owen, ran away and was
captuied in New Orleans a£*er having
been arrested on a charge of trying
to evade the draft. The professor's
suit is based on his discharge.
It was charged that he had from
time to time in the class room made
remarks that were calculated to breed
a spirit of pacifism if not disloyalty to
the United States.
After an investigation by the com
mittee Prof. Cattell was suspended on
October 1. 1917. and although he
made repeated efforts to be reinstated
he was never taken back.
Prof. Cattell alleges that he was
never disloyal, and that instead of
the trustees discharging him he
should have been retired on pay as
he had served the university for
twenty-five years.
He divides his $115,000 bill into two
parts. One bill is for $65,000 dam
ftKOi* for th© loss of his cmploj mont
at $5,000 a year and his inability to
get another paying position. The
other item is for $50,000 for the al
leged loss of his social status.
Children Entertained
by Motor Club Members
Children of the Sylvan Heights
Orphanage, the Nursery Home, and
the Children's Industrial Home, were
made happy to-day by the Motor
Club of Harrisburg, which paid a
visit to all three and left a trail of
cheerfulness in their wake.
The first visit was paid to the
Children's Industrial Home, at 1.30
this afternoon, when- the story tell
ers. the magicians and the food pro
viders of the joy party got into
action. Every child was given a
present of some sort which was ap
propriate to its age, and the ap
preciation registered by the boys and
girls more than repaid the Motor
Club members for their trials and
tribulations in arranging the party.
The second stop was made at the
Nursery Home, the party checking in
at 3.15. The program was repeated
there, and the ice cream, cakes, lolly
pops and other good things were
distributed. Moving on to the Syl
van Heights Orphanage, the party
finished their day of joy-giving, and
went home with empty cars.
The committee in charge was com
posed of J. Clyde Myton, Norrts S.
Longaker, F. T. Davenport and
Boyd M. Ogelsby.
