NEW GUARD WILL
ORGANIZE SOON
Bridge Organization Formed
and Personnel Will be
Taken up Promptly
The Pennsylvania National Guard
■which will constitute the new Key
stone division in the front line of
National defense, was removed closer
to organization by a conference of
the general officers with the col
onels and a number of the majors
at the Capitol. It was decided to
give the communities which fur
nished the units in the Guard that
went to Camp Hancock the first
opportunity t.o obtain representa
tion in the new and to urge all of
ficers of military experience and
all men who have served in the
armed forces to join the new State
troops. Ultimately Pennsylvania
is going to have not only one com
plete tactical division, but two and
the conference discussed the many
details preliminary to organization
and the auxiliary services, including
tanks and aircraft.
For the purpose of expediting
things the conference resolved it
self into a general discussion meet
ing in which Adjutant General
Frank D. Beary and Major General
W. G. Price outlined the steps they
had taken with the War Depart
ment and the generals and colonels
gave tiheir views on organization
and personnel of field and company
officers. Names of men were sug
gested and they will be asked to
Join, announcement of appointment
being made from headquarters here
without regard to group.
General Price said that he had
been impressed with the interest
shown by men of overseas experi
ence and the number of applications
he had received and expected that
the new Guard would he rapidly
and efficiently organized. He called
upon General C. T. Crcsswell, com
uiander of the Reserve Militia, who
was present with his adjutant, for
some remarks and a pledge of
heartiest co-operation was extended
General Cresswell said that he had
some excellent men who had not
been fortunate enough to get over
seas and bespoke their zeal for the
success ot the new Guard.
Adjutant General Beary said after
the conference: "It was marked
by the finest spirit. Every man
there was interested and, I am de
lighted at the way the officers took
hold of things. We will have our
organizations under way before
long and I am arranging now for
their equipment."
The brigade organizations will be:
First, General E. C. Shannon, Ist,
3rd and 6th infantry.
Second, General Richard Coulter,
Jr., 10th and 18th infantry.
Third, General G. C. Rickards,
Bth, 13th and 16th infantry.
The colonels will go to their home
communities and get into touch at
once with experienced men to com
prise the field officers and to or
ganize the companies. The cavalry,
artillery and other organizations
will be mainly located in former
home towns.

NO NEED TO BE THIN,
SCRAWNY OR SALLOW
If you are thin and want lo be
plump; if you have wrinkles in your
face that you are not proud of; if the
skin is sallow or subject to pimples
or blackheads, take Mi-o-na stomach
cablets for two weeks and notice the
change.
The malority of the thin people are
thin because the stomach does not
perform its duties properly. It is not
secreting sufficient of the natural di
gestive juices and In consequence does
not extract from the food enough
nutritive matter to nourish every
part of the body.
Mi-o-na stomach tablets are in
tended to build up the stomach so
that it will act properly and extract
from the food the elements necessary
to form flesh.
If you are thin try two weeks treat
ment of Mi-o-na stomach tablets—
they are small, easily swallowed and
are sold on the guarantee of money
back if they do not overcome chronic
indigestion, acute or chronic, stop
stomach disturbance, belching, heart
burn, sour stomach, and any after
dinner distress.

S Try Making Your Own K
Cough Remedy
rQ Ten ran save about |2, and have K
U1 a better remedy than the ready- nl
Qj made kind. Easily done. |Q
If you combined the curative proper
ties of every known "ready-made"
cough remedy, you probably could not
get as much real curative power as
there is in this simple home-made
cough syrup, which is easily prepared
in a few minutes.
Get from any druggist 2 1 /. ounces of
Pinex, pour it into a pint Dottle and
fill the bottle with syrup, using either
plain granulated sugar syrup, clarified
molasses, honey, or corn syrup, as de
sired. The result is a full pint of
really better cough syrup than you
could buy ready-made for three times
the money. Tastes pleasant and never
spoils.
This Pinex and Syrup preparation
gets right at the cause of a cough and
gives almost immediate relief. It loos
?ns the phlegm, stops the nasty throat
tickle and heals the sore, irritated
membranes so gently and easily that
It is really astonishing.
A day's use will usually overcome
the ordinary cough and for bronchitis,
sroup, hoarseness and bronchial asthma,
there is nothing better.
Pincx is a moat valuable concen
trated compound of genuine Norway
pine extract, and has been used for
generations to break np severe coughs.
To avoid disappointment, ask your
druggist for "2 1 / 3 ounces of Pinex"
with full directions, and don't accept
anything else. Guaranteed to give ab
solute satisfaction or money promptly

GAVE MORE THAN
CIVIL WAR COST
State's War Loans and War
Taxes Exceed Figures
of 1861 to 1865
Philadelphia, OcU 30. —Pennsyl-
vania's war loans and war taxes in
the two years of America's partici
pation in the World War were
greater by about $600,000,000 than
the total cost to the North of financ
ing the entire four years of the
Civil War.
The Pennsylvania War History
Commission made this announce
ment to-day. The comparison be
tween the gigantic financial contri
butions of this Commonwealth to
the Nation at war and the cost in
dollars and cents of the American
Civil War is made as a stimulant to
the interest of Pennsylvanians in
State History Week, November 9 to
15, when the people of Pennsylvania
are asked to fortify the State rec
ords of the future by contributing
the civilian and service achieve
ments of 1917 and 1918 to the Com
mission's files.
The Keystone Commonwealth, the
i figures on hand at present show, sub
i scribed to $2,709,947,800 worth of
r Liberty and Victory bonds. The
- North, from 1861 to 1865, floated
> loans totaling $2,621,916,786. In
I other words, Pennsylvania in two
i years raised $88,031,014 more in
bonds than the entire North did in
I four years.
t The Union, between 1861 and 1865,
■ paid into the United States Treas
i ury taxes totaling $667,163,247.
t Pennsylvania, for 1917 alone, paid
r $589,056,143.20. The 1918 taxes,
i which are being paid in four in
- stallments, the last one this Decem-
ber, will reach the $600,000,000
• mark. The combined Pennsylvania
f taxes for 1917 and 1918 will exceed
I the Civil War taxes of the Union
I by approximately $512,000,000, which
t added to the $58,000,000 increase in
■ war loans, makes a $600,000,000
s total.
