STARFISH LIKE OYSTERS
Starfish destroy nearly $1,000,000
worth of oysters yearly at Long
Island Sound. The creature forces
the oyster open by sheer muscular
strength. Its arms are covered on
the under side with little suckers.
It applies two or three of its arms
to one valve of the shell and the
remaining ones to the other valve.
Then, by merely stretching its arms,
it finally pulls the oyster's shell
open. In the center of the starfishes
body, on the under side, is a small
hole.
This is its mouth, out of which it
is able to project its stomach to a
distance equal to the length of one
of its arms. The stomach turns it
self Inside out, envelops the fleshy
part of the oyster and digests it as
it lies in the shell. Oystermen used
to chop in two the starfishes they
caught and threw them overboard,
until it was learned that this was
only making two starfishes out of
4>ne.' as the two halves grew other
arms.
Starfish eggs are spherical anrl
very small. They lie on the bottom
of the ocean until hatched, where
upon the larvae swim about for some
days until attaching themselves to
convenient blades of eel grass. Then
they undergo rapid transformation,
assuming the adult shape. As an
experiment, one young starfish one
quarter of an inch in diameter put
in a dish with fifty-odd clams, each
as long as its arms, gobbled up
nearly all of them In a week. —I>e-'

Engine With Nine Cars Pile
Up Near AnnviUe; Broken
Rails Discovered
An engine and nine cars were piled
up last night on the Harrlsburg di
vision of the Philadelphia and Head
ing Railway, at Miller's crossing,
near Annvillc. No person was killed |
or injured. The Queen of the Valley,
due here at 10.30 p. m„ was held
up until long after midnight. A
special was run from Harrlsburg to
the wreck and passengers trans
ferred around the wreck.
It was an eastbound freight that
was wrecked, and was caused by the
rim of the large driving wheel com
ing off when the % engineer applied
the airbrakes to slow up for orders.
The nine cars were loaded w.th mer
chandise and coal and were piled
up all over the east and westbound
tracks.
Broken Kails Cause Trouble
This was the worst mixup on
the Harrisburg division in a long
time. On the line east of Lebanon
there have been numerous delays,
due to bad rails. Four broken ra is
were discovered in three days. Last
Saturday night two cars were wreck
ed, due to a broken rail. On Sunday
another broken rail was discovered
near Mycrstown close to where the
Saturday trouble occurred.
On Monday Philadelphia Express

rail tiear Richland. Twenty feet
of the switch roil vus broken off
and carried some d Knnce by the
train until the latter was stopped.
Trackmen were obliged to use 100
tics to repair the damages. An
other broken rail was discovered
Tuesday morning near Mycrstown

" Sets-It" Peels OH

2 or S Drops, That's All.
There's a murderous, painful way
to get rid of corns, and then there
is the peaceful, glorious "peel-it
off" "Gets-lt" way. After you have
tried "Gets-It" you will say "never
Cut It? Quit IU "GeU-h" Peel* It I
again" to all other methods. This
is because "Gets-lt" is the only
corn-remover 011 earth that makes
corns peel off just, like a banana
skin. Two or three drops, will do
the work, without fussing or trou
ble. You apply it in 2 or 3 seconds.
It dries immediately. "Gets-It"
does the rest, without bandages,
plasters, blood-bringing knives or
razors. Get rid of that corn-pain at
once, so that you can work and play
without corn torture. Bo sure to
use "Gets-It." It never fails.
"Gets-It,' the only sure, guaranteed,
money-back corn-remover, costs hut

Pig Clubs Financed
by Chamber of Commerce
Did Wonderful Work
Farmers' boys and girls through
out the county were enabled to par
ticipate In the Boys' and Girls' Pig
Club contests during the past sum
mer through the efforts of the Hur
risburg Chamber of Commerce
which financed their efforts where
their parents were unable to do so,
according to an announcement at
the Chamber offices to-day.
Through one of the banks, the
Chamber of Commerce enabled the
boys and girls who wished to com
pete for the prizes offered in the pig
contests, to borrow the necessary
money for the purchase of a pig at
'he beginning of the season. Ar
-1 ingements were made through the
Cnaniber whereby the youths bor
rowing the money, would not have to
repay it if the porker thus purchas-
I ed should die before the end of the
season. In one case, the owner of
[a pig purchased in this manner lost
it through disease, and the debt
against the youngster was canceled.
In order to borrow the money the
approval of the farm agent, H. G.
Niesley, had to be secured in most
cases by the young farmers. Mr.
Niesley gave his personal supervis
ion to the efforts of .the young pig
growers to assure the success of
their ventures.
William ('rum, of Lower Paxton
township, won first prize In the coun
ty, and first prize in his club, in the
pig contest. He raised a porker
which gained 1.9 pounds during 126
consecutive days. The first, prize
for the county, a fine full bred Berk
shire pig, was contributed by the
Chamber of Commerce.
The Chamber of Commerce is ac
tive in promoting the wo'-k of the
farm bureau among the agricultural
districts of the county, contributing
to the upkeep of the bureau through
a donation of oflice space and money.
