JAIL LIFE HARD
ON 54 STRIKERS
."Relatives Send Them Rich
Food and Doctor Is Called
to Relieve Them
Chamborsburg, Pa., Oct. 25.— Jail
life doesn't agree with the 54 Way
nesboro strikers, who are now serv
ing a 80-day sentence in the local
jail. To begin with, the rich food
that relatives are sending some of
them does not go well in a body
suddenly cut off from exercise. As
a result the jail authorities have
had to call a doctor to care for
some of them, who have suffered
attacks of indigestion. ' Yesterday
25 women arrived from Waynes
boro, all carrying big baskets of
food. '
Another condition that is serving
to make the men ill is that nearly
all of them constantly are smoking,
owing to their nervous condition.
The jail is not equipped with a
modern ventilating system and the
prison is murky with the nicotine
exhalation of the smokers. This in
creases the tendency of the men to
have indigestion.

Reclaims Neglected Farm
and Makes It Yield
New Bloomfield, Pa., Oct., 25.
Perry county at the State Apple
Show, held annually at Harrisburg,
has carried away on one or two oc
casions the grand first prize for
quality, the size of exhibit and this
year bids fair to repeat at the an
nual competition if Postmaster
William S. Clegg's yield of 1,500
bushels is a fair criterion for the
entire county.
Fifteen years ago.-'Clegg, an en
thusiastic orchardist, purchased
from the heirs of D. M. Rhine
smith, a tract of neglected farm
land, once tilled, but at that time
grown up in jack pines and black
berry briars, in Centre Township,
one mile south of New Bloomfield.
Immediately after the transfer he
proceeded ambitiously to convert
fifteen acres of the waste land into
a model orchard, setting out 1,000
winesap, York imperial and other
standard young trees.
After his appointment to the post
mastership in 1913, his actual over
seeing of the orchard necessarily
ceased, hut he still managed and
directed the cultivation. This week
was finished the picking and storing
in an immense cave, the 1500
bushels of select apples—his first
big harvest. Several hundred
bushels of fallen apples have been
gathered and converted into cider.
Mr. Clegg also marketed 300 bush
els of peaches the past summer.
This is but one of many similar
fruit farms in the county, and, as
every farm has its attendant orch
ard, a bumper crop is predicted.

CURED US
RHEUMATISM!
"I am eighty-three years old and
P doctored for rheumatism ever
since I came out of the Army, over
50 years ago. Bike many others, I
spent money freely for so-called
I 'cures' and I have read about 'Uric
Acid' until I could almost taste it.
I could not sleep nights or walk
without pain; my hands were so
sore and stiff I could not hold ft pen.
But now I am again In active busi
ness and can walk with ease or
write all day with comfort. Friends
are surprised at the change." You
might just as well attempt to put
"out a fire with oil as try to get rid
of your rheumatism, neuritis and
rlike complaints by taking treatment
supposed to drive Uric Acid out of
your blood and body. It took Mr.
Ashelman fifty years to find out the
truth. He learned how to get rid of
the true cause .of his rheumatism,
other disorders and recover his
strength from "The Inner Mysteries,"
now being distributed free by an au
thority who devoted over twenty
years to the scientific study of this
trouble. Tf any reader of the Tele
graph wishes "The Inner Mysteries

|tors and scientists for centuries past,
