State Food Agents
Find Queer Things
Sixty-four arrests for violation of
the "fresh egg" act of 1915, which
forbids the sale of stale eggs as
fresh, were made In 16 counties of
the State during October, according
to the report of the State Bureau
of Foods. The arrests were made
as the result of some sampling of
eggs which when tested by chemists
showed that the chazalaza, which is
the test of an egg, was not in a
state known as fresh. Some of the
eggs had gone beyond the fresh
stage by many days.
The Bureau's agents also caused
the arrest of 110 per sons for the
sale of milk that did not come up
to State standards at all. Twenty
three samples of miik were found
watered, while 75 samples were be
low the State standard for fats. The
arrests were made in 50 counties and
resulted from a wholesale sampling.
In one instance manure was 'found
in milk and a stiff fine was imposed.
Some arrests were made for
tainted drinks, cockroaches being
discovered in ginger ale and dead
flies in lemon "pop." Two arrests
were made for sale of cider that was
in a "hard" state and various arrests
were made for sale of beverages
which contained coal tar dyes, sac
charin. Chemicals were also dis
covered by chemists in some of the
foods and drinks turned in.
The activities of the agents are
being continued this month and some
interesting reports are expected.

RED CROSS SEALS
Men Who Downed the Huns
Fighting the White
Plague
The Pennsylvania men who helped
break the Hindenburg line have
joined in the big battle to conquer
the white plague. Members of the
American Legion are taking an ac
tive part in the Christmas Seal Cam
paign which has for its object an
intensive crusade next year to lessen
tuberculosis. Former service men
are assisting in the formation of the
seal organizations in many Stato
counties and will be among the most
active workers when the sale begins
December 1.
Seeing the increased need for a
certed onslaught on tuberculosis
as revealed through the draft,,
Major W. G. Murdock, State Adju
tant of the Legion, who was chief
draft officer in Pennsylvania during
the war, has sent a letter to each
State post urging full support of the
white plague fight Major Murdock
in an interview said: "The impor
tance of the present Bed Cross
Christmas Seal drive cannot be over
estimated. The proceeds derived
from the sale of these seals will be
used in stamping out the dreaded
white plague. The rhysical exami
nations during the draft revealed the
extent to which this terrible disease
has progressed. In Pennsylvania
alone the draft boards rejected ap
proximately 6,000 young men on ao.
count of tuberculosis. Three thou
sand more were rejected when they
reached camp. During the war 15
per cent of the men in service receiv
ing medical attention were victims
of this disease. When we take into
consideration the thousands of wo
men and children and men over 35,
of whom the army has no record, we
can realize the importance of stop
ping the progress of this disease. The
duty of the people in this matter is
too clear to doubt for a minute the
ultimate success of this Christmas
Seal drive."
In Lehigh county the American
Legion as an organization is in
charge of the seal sale. Harry C.
Blank, chairman of the Lehigh
County Legion, is head of the seal
committee. Mr. Blank, who was one

Curling Hair Like This I
Promotes Its Health |
For those whose hair is straight
and lank nothing better could be rec
ommended than the sllmerlne method.
This Insures a beautiful curllnass
which is perfectly natural in appear
ance. and the health of the hair is
not affected as where the heated Iron
is used. A few ounces of liquid
sllmerlne—-which, can of coarse be
had at any drug store—lasts a long
time, so it Is quite economloal to
use. It is pleasant to use. too, being
neither sticky nor greasy, and Is
easily applied with a clean tooth
brush. The hair should be moistened
the. full length before retiring.
The pretty wavy effect In evidence
In the morning is surprising to those
who try this simple method the first
time. The liquid also serves as an
excellent dressing, giving the hair a
delightful gloss.
