Anj doctor will tell you that most people who are in pain make the mis
take of drugging themselves. Aching llesh. muscles, ligaments or nerves can
rarely he overcome by swallowing drugs or cure-alls. Try Cell-O-san, the
scientific combination of mineral oils now used by physicians for relieving
pain. Grateful users say that Cell-O-San has an almost magic power. It
quickly penetrates the llesh and soothes and restores the sick cells which
are the real center and cause of the pain. Clean and odorless, Cell-O-San is
quickly and easily applied. It does not stain the llesh, and to those who
have suffered the inconvenience of blistering plasters or smelly, greasy salves
it comes as a boon and a blessing. Time and again physicians have soothed
and quieted pninful muscles and aching ligaments in twelve hours with the
aid of Cell-O-San. If you suffer from pain or lame muscles in any part of
your body, you owe it to yourself to make this test: Get Cell-O-San from
our druggist today—use it tonight and if you are not delighted with the al
most instant relief it gives you. go back tomorrow and get your money and
the trial will have rost you nothing. Dispensed in this city by G A Gorges'

|LESS WATER IS
BEING CONSUMED
i
| Slow Down of Steel Plant
Operations Decreases
Demand
With the slow down of operations
\w' the local steel plant to the pre
i war schedule; less water is being
consumed from the borough's sup
ply, a water department official said
this morning.
This official declared that the
steel plant is using about one-third
of the amount consumed during the
war. He said that during the un
precedented rush at the plant it was
necessary to use water without any
attention to conservation and for
that reason the borough pumping
' station was running to its capacity
j and for a time was overtaxed.
This demand for water together
with supplying Harrisburg water
] during a shortage in the city some
1 time ago worked the pumping station
o its capacity and for a time the
••Ration of additional filters was
dered to relieve the conditions,
•he consumption diminishing to
t extent these additions to the
at equipment arc not necessurv,
. ...c department official said.
The department officials are hav
ing considerable trouble this year
with frozen meters, due largely, an
official said, to the carelessness of
residents. Consumers, by letting
cellar windows open, are responsible
for their own trouble and officials
ask property owners to see that
meters are properly taken care of
therefore overcoming much of the,
trouble for the department.
Glee Club Entertains in
Honor of Service Members
Members of the Glee Club of the
Hygienic Hose Company entertained

the club present were: Paul Triece,
pianist; Richard Reider, leading so
loist; George Triece, Fred Evans,
Roy Eeans. John Capella. Robert

STEELWORKER DIES

Chief Declares That No ■
Liquor Is Sold in Stores
Declaring that a statement made
by a ltarrisburger that liquor could
be purchased at a Steelton drug
store for 35 cents a quart, was mis
lending. Chief or Police Longnaker
said this morning that he did not be
lieve any such foolishness because
all the drugstores here are operated
by reputable residents. It is under
stood that an investigation is being
made by the department into some
rumors of bootlegging that have been
prevalent in borough streets for
some time.
Blast Furnace to Be
Placed in Operation
Blast furnace No. 3 of the local
steel plant, which has been out of
oporation for some time, due to
the lull in work after the war, will
be placed in operation on New

officials of the plant yesterday aft
ernoon. The 4 4-inch mill, which

after undergoing repairs, went out

Railroad Electrification
Is Next Official Move
Washington, Dec. 29.—Electrifica
tion of steam railroads, forced by
the search for cheap power, was pre
dicted yesterday by Hubert X. Wool
ley, of the Interstate Commerce
Commission, as the next step that
must be taken in the transportation
world.
Mr. Woolley In an Interview said
that this could be done by convert
ing bituminous coal into coke at tlie
pit heads of the mines and the use
of the coke as fuel in giguntic clec
| tricai. stations. He continued:
"The two great articles of fuel—
coal aiul petroleum—would be eon
served. The transportation of coal
for power purposes would be prac
tically eliminated. This is more
than half the coal now being car
ried by railroads. Tljo effect would
be to relieve congestion on the rail
roads anil greatly increase their fa
cilities, a thing which railroad men
must be done if industry is not to
suffer. Railroads would no longer
have to move coul for their own pur
pose.
"Electrification is t lie cheapest
and most practical method of pro
ducing an increase in traffic capacity.
This could be accomplished by ad
ditional tracks or by the elimination
or reduction of grades, but the en
tire cost of electrification, includ
ing power stations and transporta
tion lilies, is less than tlie cost of
either."

Federation of Welfare
and Charitable Activities
Contemplated For 1920
Philadelphia is contemplating the
same sort of federation of social and
welfare agencies as is now under
consideration by a special committee
of the Chambtr of Commerce of which
ex-Mayor J. William Bowman is
chairman. In Philadelphia the Cham
ber of Commerce will send out ques
tionnareis this week to all institu
tions for dependent children as its
first step in the survey it has planned.
A Philadelphia dispatch states:
"For some time the necessity for
such & federation has been recognized
but it was deemed useless to take the
preliminary steps for its formation
until important statistics had been
attained. Now that the Chamber of
Commerce has taken this work upon
itself the prospects for the formation
of such a federation are promising.
