I SEWING MACHINE NEWS
, Agents' Profits are Slaughtered.
The day is past when sewing machines are controlled by in
dividual factory agents, who make n living from selling one or
two machines each week at 35.00 to 50.00. At those prices
the profits were sufficient to satisfy. Now department stores
everywhere are selling the same machines with such a small
margin of profit that agents cannot compete. For example,
we sell the world known High Arm Singer Machine at 28.50,
their own agents can not sell this same machine to ycm for
that, for it does not give them a living profit which they must
have.
Betler Offer Than Mail Order Houses Wakes.
No mail Order Houses can or will sell any better machines than we offer
you—their llowery statements are misleading as to quality—we could write pages of
the same kind and if we didn't know or weren't known to you it would sound just
as convincing. .
Then consider this: we positively give you a higher grade machine: give the
same rigid guarantee and besides are ritrht here at your home if ever anything gets
out of order or goes wrong: von see exactly what you are buying: you have the J
priviledge of trving the machine right in your own home: delivery is free, 110 1
freight charges to pay or no cost to send the money away: prices are as low as and
lower if you consider quality.

QUALITY FIRST \
CONSIDERATION.!
An Example Set by a Well
kiiown Firm.
Always abreast with the times (and
generally ahead of them), the pro
gressive Dr. David Kennedy Co.,
of Roudout, N. V., have taken a big
step in the right direction. They
h.ive filed, in the U. S. Department
of Chemistry at Washington, D. C.,
a binding guaranty of the purity of
their widely and favorable known Dr.
David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy,
and it has been approved by that
Department of our Government.
Each bottle of Favorite Remedy,
therefore, is absolutely guaranteed
not to be adulterated or inisbranded.
Only the purest ingredients are em
ployed in the preparation of Dr. Ken
nedy's Favorito Remedy. It contains
no opium, cocaine, morphine or any
other poisonous or habit-forming drug.
It has never been classed among the
so-called "patent medicines," but is a
prescription used by Dr. David Ken
nedy in his large private practice,
long before he placed it belore the
public, nearly thirty-five years ago.
It is not secret, because it is the policy
of the proprietors to give a list of in
gredients whenever requested. Dr.
Kennedy's Favorite Kemedy, there
fore, ranks among the first of the
standard "family medicines."
From a small begiuning the busi
ness has growu to large proportions,
and its marvelous growth has been
due to several reasous. In the first
place, Favorite Remedy has absolute
merit. In the second place, Dr.
David Kennedy and his sous have al
ways advertised largely in daily and
weekly newspapers, to assist them iti |
spreading broadcast the merit of Fav
orite Remedy. The result is that
there is hardly a family in the coun
try that does not know of Favorite
Remedy, and it has thousands of
warm friends who praise it in the
highest terms.
The above firm is already receiving
complimentary notices in the leading
drug journals, and wholesale and re
tail dealers in all parts of the country
are congratulating them upon the new
I and progressive methods they have
adopted.

PLAN TO ENLARGE
CAPITOL GROUNDS
State Officials and Members of the
House and Senate Favorable.
the Fox Bill So Dtawn That th«
Property Must Be Acquired
at a Fair Price.
Harrisburg, J«u. 29—At the recep
tion by the Harrisburg Board of Trade
last week to Governor Stuart and
other officers of the state government,
to the members of the legislature and
to the Legislative Correspondents' As
sociation, the subject of the extension
of Capitol Park was referred to Indi
rectly by Governor Stuart In bis
speech. While he did not in terms
commit himself he very clearly indi
cated that lie was in favor of the en
terprise, saying that he understood
what was wanted and that he believed
the legislature, which he said is of
unusually high character, could be de
pended onto do whatever was for the
best Interests of the state.
Anyone who knows conditions sur
roun.ling the capitol knows that the
enlargement of the park, as proposed,
is of prime importance to all the peo
ple of the state.
Other speakers referred to the mat
ter more directly. Senator DeWalt,
who spoke for President Pro Tem.
Woods, of the senate, who was un
avoidably absent, declared that while
Pennsylvania has the most magnificent
and most beautiful capitol of any state
in the Union, its surroundings were
utterly inadequate and mean. He
pledged himself and his fellow-mem
bers to vote for any proper bill for the
enlargement of the grounds as pro
posed. These sentiments were heartily
applauded by the senators and repre
sentatives, as well as by everybody
else in the great auditorium, which
was Ailed with the leading members of
the state government and the general
assembly and the most prominent busi
ness and professional men of Harris
burg.
No one should be deluded by the
statements of chronic kickers and
pullbacks that this is a Harrisburg en
terprise and for the benefit of Harris
burg. It is a great public improvement
for the benefit of the people of tho
whole state, which the people of Har-
I risburg recommend because they are
lon the ground and see the necessity
| for it. There is no pecuniary or specu
j lativo interest whatever behind this
movement.
The people of the state can rest as
sured of this.
The following is a summary of the
provisions of the bill to provide for
the extension of Capitol Park intro
duced in the senate on Monday even- |
ing, January 21, by Senator John E. j
Fox,
The governor shall appoint three
commissioners, none of whom shall be
interested directly or indirectly in any
of the property to be acquired, who
shall constitute the Capitol Park ex
tension committee, whose work shall
be completed and which shall expire
by limitation June 1, 1911. Any va
cancy in the commission shall be filled
by appointment by the governor for the
unexpired term.
The commission is authorized to
quire title in the commonwealth to all
the land between the present Capitol
Park on the west, the Pennsylvania
railroad on the east, North street on
the north and Walnut street on the
south, containing about 14 acres, ex
clusive of streets.
No land shall be actually taken by
the commonwealth until the city of
Harrisburg shall by ordinance provide
for the vacation of all the streets, al
leys and other highways in that sec
tion without any liability on the part
of tho commonwealth for damages.
The commissioners may acquire the
! land by purchasu at reasonable prices
, to be agreed upon between them and
! the owners, but if they cannot agree j
the commissioners may on 60 days no
tice to the owners of their intention to
do so take possession of the land and j
; such possession shall vest absolute i
| title in the commonwealth.
I The commissioners may assess tho
' damages after full hearing on due no- j
tice to the owners. If the owners are
. not satisfied they can appeal to the
; Dauphin county court for the fixing of
j damages in the usual way.
! The bill carries an appropriation of
$1,600,000 or as much as may be neces
sary for the payment of the real estate
taken.
As will be seen there can be no spec
ulative snake concealed in this bill.
.The commission Is to be appointed by
Governor Stuart. Probably none of
them will be residents of Harrisburg
or Dauphin county. No unfair prices
can be paid for the land because in case
of disagreement the price after full !
hearing and Inspection will be fixed by
a Jury of view subject to confirmation
by the court. None of the money ap
propriated will probably be required
this year, as it will take months for
the preliminary work of the commis
sion to be done.
The disbursement of the $1,600,000
or so much of it as may be necessary,
provided for In the bill, will extend
over a period of four years, so that
there will he no draft on the treasury
in any one year that will at all inter
fere with proper provision for the state
charitable and penal institutions, the
public schools and the making of good
roads.
Any one who is familiar with the sit
uation must see that this is great pub
lic improvement that every considera- j
tlon of good business demands should j
be made now. Unless the property is I
secured at this time it Is sure to en- |
bance in value and is bound in the near 1
future to be built up with large fac
tories and warehouses that will entire
ly shut off the view of our magnificent
capitol fioin the ast and from the sight
of persons who pass through on trains, j
Communications received from lead- !
ing editors in every county show that
the public sentiment throughout the
state is overwhelmingly in favor of
this great work.
