Fat That Shows
Soon Disappears
Prominent fat that comes and stavs
where it is not needed is a burden;
a hindrance to activity, a curb upon
pleasure. You can take off the fat
where it shows by taking after each
meal and at bedtime one Marmola
Prescription Tablet. These little tab
lets are as effective and harmless as
the famous prescription from which
they take their name. Buy and try
a case today. Your druggist sells
them at sl., or if you prefer you
may write direct to the Marmola
Company, 864 Woodward Ave., De
troit, Mich. You can thus say good
bye to dieting, exercise and fat.
Has Found Happiness
After 22 Years
Of Suffering
Says the Mnn-Ilcil Helped to Re
duce the H. C. of IJ. and wants
to see one in every home.
Wishing to help others, Mrs. H.
At. Drnucher of 635 Woodbine St.,
Harrisburg, Pa., relates her experi
ence in an interesting letter.
"X can truly say that I have gotten
■wonderful relief rrom the Man-Hell
Automatic Inhaler used for Hay
Fever and Asthma. Have been able
to attend picture shows on the hot
test nights and could go out in all
kinds of weather; something I could
not do in former years. Have spent
money for everything, answered all
advertisements but got no relief
from anything until the Man-Heil
Inhaler was advertised, by the
Gorgas Drug Store, of Harrisburg.
Since using Inhaler have been able
to sleep well, where in former years
got no rest and could not get my
breath. Had to be under the influ
ence of hypodermic injections most
of the time during Hay Fever period,
this reduced my vitality and
left me very weak, and any rest got
ten was unnatural. We have two
children and Mr. Draucher claims
the benefit derived from the Man-
Heil Inhaler has been of great finan
cial assistance in battling with the
H. C. of U, etc., by enabling the
mother of the home to be on the job
as well as bringing us greater happi
ness, for we feel that we have at
last found relief after 22 years of
severe suffering. I want to help
others and this letter can be publish
ed so the Man-Heil Inhaler will be
in many homes. Sincerely yours,
Mrs. H. M. Draucher."
The merit of this remarkable dis
covery is being proven daily in hun
dreds of cases of Catarrh, Asthma,
Dung Trouble and other diseases of
the Air Passages. Persons that have
suffered almost constantly for
twenty-five and thirty years and
who have tried everything else,
claim the Man-Heil is the only
remedy that gave them relief. The
Man-Heil Automatic Inhaler is sold
by George A. Gorgas Drug Stores
with the understanding that if not
satisfactory your money will be re
funded.

EDUCATION TO
BE ANALYZED
All Phases, Including Ameri

Will Be Under Experts
Dr. Thomas E. Finegan, State
Superintendent of Public Instrucion,
to-day announced details of the plan
for the educational congress for

expreience and dependable judg
ment have been invited to partici
pate. I have asked about 300, and
leaders will be selected to present

ing our educational work."

State Employment
Agencies Help 24,475
Almost 25,000 persons were di
rected to positions during the month
of October by the State employment
agencies, according to a summary of
office reports from the 19 agencies
announced to-day. The exact num*
ber was 24,476 and the summary
shows, that 6,65 4 places for former
soldiers were offered by Pennsyl
vania employers during the month
and that 5,32"? former soldiers ap
plied for work at the bureau offi
ces. The bureau referred 4,661 of
the soldier applicants to jobs, for
whicli they were considered suitable,
and 4,212 veterans obtained employ
ment.
There were 18,518 male civilians
placed in employment out of 23,-
624 applicants. Of 1,432 women ap
plying for jobs, 1,067 obtained work.
The bureau offices ranked 100 per
cent in regard to day workers. Of
679 persons applying for work by
the day, every one was placed.
The total applicants for jobs in
all offices were 31,059, while the
requests for employes numbered 66,-
919. The demands for workers ex
ceeded the supply, and there were
less placements than the number of
job seekers, only because many of
(lie positions offered were along
specialised lines that could not be
immediately filled from the applica
tions.
The highest record of placement
for soldiers for the month was in
the Arch street office in Philadelphia
with 1,978, Pittsburgh second with
719. In Williamsport, the soldiers'
placements numbered 176, in Scran
ton 268, and in Harijisburg 151.

of Beet Sugar Is
Fixed at 10 1-2 Cents
Washington. Nov. 15.—A maxi
mum wholesale price of 10% cents
a pound for all beet sugars at all
points in the United States was es
tablished by the Department of
Justice.
This price was fixed yesterday at
a lengthy conference between How
ard Figg special assistant to the At
torney General, in charge of food
prices, and representatives of the
leading beet sugar refiners, who hud
sought an increase over the present
price on the grounds that they could
not make a reasonable profit.
Previously beet sugar prices ranged
from 10 cents a pound in most sec
tions to 10% cents.
It was said that a general order
would be issued within a week which
would "settle the sugar prices and
avoid further misunderstandings."

London Papers Declare
Johnson "Good Sport"
Ixxulon, Nov. 15. William E.
("Pussyfoot") Johnson, the Ameri
can prohibitionist, whose campaign
in England was rudely Interrupted
Thursday by a band of students,
yesterday, as a result of his attitude
toward the adventure, was one of
the most talked-of and popular fig
ures of the day. He commanded the
biggest headlines in the newspapers
and the general verdict of the head
line writers was that he is "a good
sport."
Mr. Johnson could not have de
sired better advertisement than
Thursday's incident for his campaign
against the liquor traffic, and his fu
ture public appearances likely will
command attention by reason of the
fact that he has announced himself
as considering the hazing he under
went a good Joke. The students who
marched about with him yesterday,
upsetting traffic In a goodly part of
the West End, now propose to ten
der Mr. Johnson a banquet and pre
sent to him their tributes of respect.
