COUNTY HEALTH
COUNCILS NAMED
[ First List Comprises People

the Counties
<•
■MlaaunaMA Col. Edward
v\ \ * ///\ Martin, the State
\\\ Commissioner of
TOt Wtl Health, to-day
comm ' ttees " to
m o n w eal th in
conditions and spreading the doc
trine of good health. Committees
were announced for 32 counties and
the Colonel says that he has called
upon all of the civic organizations
to "lend a hand and co-operate with
the direct agencies of the State De
partment of Health."
The plan is to have the county
health council work with the county
medical director, the representatives
of the State Department of Health.
There will be a health council of six
in each county, selected because of
position in the community, interest
in civic work and experience in pub
lic matters.
The councils as announced include:
Cumberland—Dr. N. W. Hershner,
Mechanicsburg; the Rev. T. J. Fer
guson, Silver Spring; Dr. E. S.
Berry, Shlppcnsburg; Dr. E. It.
Plank, Merkel Landis and Miss Mary
Bosler. Carlisle.
Franklin—Col. W. C. Bambriclc,
Scotland; Dr. T. D. White, Orrstown;
Dr. Barr Snively, Mrs.
John W. Hoke. Dr. J. M. ElwiX, Dr.
Charles F. Palmer and Harvey M.
Speosard, Chain bersburg.
Perry James W. Shull, New
liloomfield; Dr. L. A. Carl, Newport;
Dr. B. F. Bealc, Duncannon; Dr. J.
H. Sheibley, Shermansdale; H. S.
Shelbley, New Bloomfield.
Dr. Richard v ßeeser, Columbia;
Dr. C. J. Hawk. Tower City, and Dr.
J. A. Singmaster, Gettysburg, are also
named.
Present plans of the State Depart
ment of Agriculture call for the com
pilation of reports from every county
in Pennsylvania as to the manner
in which the dog license code was
enforced and they will be asked to
furnish detailed information as to
the licenses issued, the dogs killed
because of failure to license them,
the actions against persons who re
fused to obey the law and the gen
eral conditions as well as the num
ber of sheep killed or injured and
the damages paid by the counties.
On the experience of this year will
depend very largely the State policy
for next year. In event that it is
seen that county authorities have
not been energetic their attention
will be called to it and the State may
launch a campaign of its own as was
done in several counties this year
with convictions and fines obtained.
Complaints have come to the Capitol
of failure to enforce the code in a
number of sections.
The State Department of Health
has established a clinic for New
Kensington with Dr. P. A. Brown in
charge. Dr. Max Tischler has been
named as an assistant at the Wilkes-
Burre dispensary.
The meeting of the State Forest
Commission for discussion of con
tracts scheduled for to-day has been
deferred until later. A report on
all timber cutting operations is to
be compiled.
Col. A. M. Holding, prominent
Chester county lawyer, was at the
Capitol.
The State Compensation Board
has awarded compensation to Ed
ward Tolan, of Mahanoy City, an
employe of the Philadelphia and
Beading Coal and Iron Company,
because he lost a foot while crawl
ing under a train in order to get to
his work at a mine. The crossing on
a private road was blocked by a
train of coal cars and while other
men climbed over the cars, Tolan
crawled under. The train started
and he lost a foot. The board holds
that he had to cross the train be
cause of the road being closed and
his employer required him to be on
duty at a certain time. Lack of a
guard rail which would have pre
vented Frank Sorrentino, of Pitts
ton, from falling into machinery in
a breaker, is the reason for grant
ing compensation to his parents who
are advanced in years and who were
to a certain extent dependent upon
the son's earnings at a colliery of
the Pennsylvania Coal Company.
Further api>ointmcnts of oiiicers
of the new Pennsylvania National
Guard will be made before the end
of the week, it is expected. The
newly-commissioned officers have
proceeded to organize their units. The
officers to be named will include
men in the medical and signal corps
in all probability.
Prolonged litigation over tlie new
fare system of the Wilkes-Barre
Railway Company came to an end
before the Public Service Commis
sion last night when argument was
heard before the Public Service Com
mission, all of whose members sat
to hear the lawyers. Numerous
questions were asked of the attor
neys and for a time there was a
cross fire. The counsel for the city
and various boroughs attacked the
fares as unjustified and assailed the
zoning system in summing up the
evidence adduced at the various
hearings held in the cases. Ex-
Judge W. Frank Wheaton, of Wilkes-
Barre, counsel for the company, de
clared that the fares were justified
and that the company had the values
on which to make the charges, while*
he referred to the expense of main
taining the system. The Commis
sion will receive briefs and act on
the case later on in the year.

Prices of Cigarets v
to Be Boosted Again
New York, Nov. 25.—A new re
tail price list for cigarets will be
placed before the public before the
end of this week by the United Re
tail Stores Corporation, which owns
the United Cigar Stores Company.
As a result of a general advance
in wholesale cigaret prices the retail
prices are due to go up. The R.
J. Reynolds Company, which manu
facturers between 80,000,000 and
100,000,000 cigarets daily, has ad
vanced its wholsale prices 40 cents
a thousand closely after an initiul
advance of 30 cents a thousand. This
70-cent advance will mean a differ
ence of about $17,000,000 a year to
the Reynolds concern.
It is understood that the Ameri
can Tobacco Company, whose pro
duction is something more than 77,-
000,000 cigarets a day, will get in
line as a result of the increasing
costs and will raise its cigaret prices
to about the same average as that
of the Reynolds Company. If fig.
ured on the dollar basis this will
mean a difference of approximately
i $14,000,000 annually to the Ameri-
Inon Tobacco Company.

Don't Spoil a Good Meal
With a Bad Stomach
If a physician, a specialist in stom
ach diseases, came to you and said:
"I will flx up that miserable, worn
out stomach for you or money back.
•"I will make it as good as new so
you will not suffer from any distress
and can eat what you want without
fear or suffering, or money back."
Would you turn down his offer?
And when you are offered Mi-o-na
stomach tablets, made from a pre
scription better than many of the
stomach specialists know how to
write, are you going to be narrow
minded and continue to suffer from
indigestion, or are you going to be
fair to yourself and try Mi-o-na on
the money-back agreement.
Mi-o-na stomach tablets are offered
to you on this basis, that tf they do
not put your stomach into such good
shape that there is no dizziness, sour
stomach, biliousness, sick headache,
and stomach distress, your money
will be returned. For sale by H. C.
Kennedy and all leading druggists.

Quick starting in cold weather
Frigid weather puts the burden of proof on the motor-fuel. Slug-
R gasoline floods the carbureter, coughs and spits —does everything
but run the engine. And that's what you bought it for.
Guard against this annoyance of cold-weather motoring. Use
Atlantic Gasoline regularly and have the assurance of quick starts, no
matter what the thermometer says.
Atlantic Gasoline is sold by good dealers all over the State. You
can get it anywhere. The important thing is to GET it and be
sure it's Atlantic.

Burleson Regime
Is Holly Assailed
No justification can be found for
making the rates forced on the Bell
Telephone system by the Burleson
regime a permanent charge on thf
peple of Pennsylvania and the com
pany should be required to return to
its 1917 rates, argued James Francis
Burke, counsel for the Pittsburgh
Chamber of Commerce, in protesting
against continuance of the "war
time" rates after December 1, be
fore the Public Service Commission
last night in closing the famous
case which has occupied attention
for many weeks. The city of Pitts
burgh also registered protest in the
final argument and the company
sought to secure approval of the
rates on the ground that they were
essential to operation and the fair
return.
Mr. Burke's address attracted
much attention about the Capitol
and the Commission sat late to hear
him. He said that it had been estab
lished that the Federal Government
could not operate a public utility
as weil as the competent men who
had grown up with it and that the
mistakes of Burleson management
would be found costly. Federal con-

trol, he argued, should not be con
sidered a basis for any permanent
rates. It had done little except muss
things up and the company's offi
cials should bo grateful for the
manner in which it had exploded
Government ownership ideas. Mr.
Burke insisted that the rates of two
years should be restored and Burle
son management forgotton as much
as possible.
Mr. Marye's request for an 8 per
cent return on $90,000,000 and liis
analysis of the figures produced in

Kinnurd here were attacked by C.
K. Robinson, counsel for the city,
who said that $20,000,000 should be
taken off the value because it was
reinvestment; that there was a $12,-
000,000 surplus and that 7 per cent
was all that should he allowed. He
