MUSI "ME II EARTH"
National Municipal League Say Polit
ical Reformers Must Remove "the
Sign of the ' Highbrow' and Sub
stitute the 'Dollar Mark' "
By Associated Press.
Baltimore. Nov. 20. —Political re
form organizations must "come down
to earth; "' they must remove "the sign
of the ' higli'brow' and substitute the
'dollar mark,' which nlone, apparently,
is sufficiently poteut to be effective,"
.according to a report to the National
Municipal League to-day by its com
mittee on plan of political organiza
tion.
I'lie committee has not completed its
work, and the report is described as
only an *' interlocutory expression.''
Et was prepared by the chairman, A.
Leo Weil, president of the Voters'
League of Pittsburgh.
In part, the report is as follows:
" A plan of political organization
which relies for its support upon that
class who have reached t>he elevation
where they look down upon selfishness
anil are moved solelv by altruistic con
siderations must fail. The number is
too limited.
"It will not do for the so-called
'highibrow' to inveigh against the com
placency of the average citizen. This
■gets him nowhere. It will not do to
assume that all voters are. corruptly in
fluenced when they support political
faction. This presupposes the pre
ponderance of corruption. The trouble
is, perhaps, that, while the one form of
organization follows the natural iu
stiucts of man, the other ignores them
and relies upon a conception of vitizen
ship as appeals only to the idealists, the
theorists, the purists and the dreamers.
A plan of political organization, to suc
ceed, to secure the following required
to win at the polls, must be built upon
the mainspring of human action, to wit:
self-interest. Your committee believes
that it can be demonstrated (except
where the contest is purely personal,
(between men. not measures) that in the
campaign for good government, as con
trasted with tlie machine government,
the selfish interests of the citizen are
at stake. Too much stress is laid upon
patriotism, civic pride and the like, and
too little upon what the continuance of
poor government or institution of good
means to the puv?c and tlie person of
the individual citizen."
There was mueli justification, the re
port continued, ill the charge that a
large number of those who were found
among the reformers, so-called, did not
qualify by registration or other legal
formality, to exercise the rights of citi
zenship, "the mere voice of civic obli
gation not being loud enough to call
them ftotn their personal pursuits to
the performance of their personal obli
gations.''
A general awakening was going on,
however, and there was an ever-increas
ing number who wanted good govern
ment out of purely selfish motives.
As to the financing of such political
organizations, the report noted the
Cleveland plan, and urged that it might
be followed tby other cities. "In the
city of Cleveland the president of a
large trust company conceived the plan
of getting some of its citizens of wealth
to provide in their wills for bequests
to foundation devoted to the city's wel
fare. and a large amount, running up
into millions, has 'been already thus in
corporated in such wills. The money,
of course, will be available only upon
the death of the benefactors. Some
of these amounts, however, have already
.become available through death, and
in consequence an organization is being
effected in that city having for its pur
pose the general \velfare of the city."
The report concluded with the com
mittee's apptfal for suggestions as:
"How 'best to show that good gov
ernment means personal good to the in
dividual.
"flow to inform the community that
good government is a selfish proposi
tion, not an altruistic dream.
"How to remove from such organiza
tions the sign of the ' highbrow' and
substitute the -dollar mark,' which
alone, apparently, is sufficiently potent,
to be effective.

NO DflUßfti BEST SELLER
No Other Book Published Has Had
Such an Immense and Lasting
Popularity as Bible
During the last few years there has
been much talk of " best sellers." Pub
lishers have vied "with each other to eu
list writers whose works have at one
time or another reached the head of the
list. The popular novel that sells up
into the thousands and continues in de
mand is known as a "best seller," but
comparatively few of the many reach
.this enviable position.
There is one book, however, that has
been a " best seller" for the past. 300
years. This is what is known as the
authorized version of the Bible. 'More
than 300.000.000 copies have been dis
tributed bv the American and British
and foreign Bible societies alone.
Think of these figures and you will for
ever cease to be interested" in so-called
" licst sellers.'
The Bible, or parts of it, 'have been
translated into several hundred .differ
ent languages and dialects. The first
complete translation in English was
made over 500 years ago, and the first
American edition was printed in Boston
more than 100 years ago.
A most interesting work from all
viewpoints is this great Book of Books,
but. the publishers of the Bilde which
the Star-Independent is distributing
have given it an added interest by
making it a veritable work of art. Be
sides the full-page color [dates from
the world-famed Tissot collection, there
are also more than 600 subjects illus
trated by famous artists, and the pic
tures are printed in with the type,
where they help to make plain the text
matter.
Every man, woman and child will
want a copy of this new illustrated
Bible, and II may have it Ivy present
ing one certificate, printed on another
page, and complying with the terms ex
plained therein.
TEST CASE ON BOUNTIES
Bradford County Refused Payment to
Man Who Killed Fox
Philadelphia, Nov. 20.—A suit in
volving the payment of bounties by
the State for the killing of noxious ani
mals was heard in the Superior Court
yesterday on the appeal of the Commis
sioners of Bradford county for a man
damus issued by Judge Maxwell direct
ing them to pay a bounty of 82 to
David J. Armstrong, of Terrick town
ship, for killing a fox
Armstrong killed the animal January
1, 1913, and, although the Commission
ers refused him the bounty, he waited
uutil August 28, 1913, before starting
suit. Meanwhile, on July 2'~>. 1913.
a new law was passed restricting the
payment of bounties so far as Reynard
is included to "gray foxes.'' The
Commissioners thereupon maintained
that the new law repealed the old one
and, as the fox killed by Armstrong
was not gray, there was no obligation
to pay the bounty. The ease was held
under advisement.

VAl.l ABI.K ADVICE TO SI'PFEREHS
"There are many different forms of
stomach trouble," said a well-known
specialist recently, "but practically all
are traceable to excessive acidity and
food fermentation. That is why the
results obtained from the use of drucs
are usually so disappointing. Admit
ting fermentation and consequent acid
ity of the food contents to be the un
derlying cause of most forms of Indi
gestion, it naturally fellows that the
use of a reliable antacid, such as the
pure bisurated magnesia which is so
frequently prescribed by _ physicians,
will produce better results than anv
known drug or combination of drugs.
' cijrdliiKly I alniDst invariably advise
those who complain of digestive trou
ble to get some blsur&ted magnesia
(note the name carefully, as other
forms are uusuitable for this purpose),
from their druggist, and take from one
to two tKaspoonfuls of the powder, or
Krai " compressed tablets, with
a little water after incals. This by Im
mediately neutralizing; the acid and
stopping the fermentation, removes the
cause of all the trouble and Insures

Chambersburg, Nov. 20.—A remark
able non-partisan endorsement of Judge
Clillan and an urgent appeal that he be

that fifty-one per cent, of the primary

London, Nov. 20, 12.12 P. M.—The
body of Field Marshal Lord Roberta,-
borne on a gun carriage, moved slowly
through streets of London yesterday

before a reverent' throng that included
King George. The body will be interred
along side the remains of Wellington,

EMPRESS' HAIRDRESSER
DOUBLY A'WAR VICTIM
London, Nov. 20.—A dispatch to
the "Standard" from Paris tells of
the horrors of war experienced by the
Empress of Germany's former hair
dresser. He is a victim o fthe war ia
a double sense. Being a Frenchman, he
lost his position as soon as hostilities
broke out. Since then he has been ar
rested in his native country as a sus
pect.
M. Gerard, as this hairdresser is
named, could not bring himself to dis
card in. republican Franco the airs he
gave himself in Germany by reason of
his privileged position in the royal
household as chief coiffeur to the
Kaiserin. This annoyed the good peo
ple of Sainte Germain, wherie Gerard
resided. Moreover, Gerard made him
self conspicuous by interviewing Ger
man prisoners and wounded and he
could not say enough in praise of all
that is German.
Gerard was pointed out to the police
as a suspect, and is now languishing
in Versailles jail, pending a decision by
the military authorities.
Hosiery for the Sufferers
C'oatesville, Nov. 20.—C'oatesville

BRONCHIAL COUGHS
When the brouchial tubes are af
fected with that weakening, tickling
cough, they need immediate and sen
sible treatment. The breath seems
shorter because of mucous obstruc
tions; usually fever is present and
your head jars with every cough.
Your chest aches and the inflamma
tion often spreads to the lungs.
The food-tonic that has proven its
worth for forty years—is Scott's Emul
sion. It drives out the cold, which
is the root of the trouble, and checks
the cough by aiding the healing
process of the enfeebled membranes.
If you are troubled with bronchitis
or know an afflicted friend, always re
member that Scott's Emulsion builds
strength while relieving the trouble.

RECEPTION Of RED CROSS
UNITS IN BRESLAU CORDIAL
Washington, Nov. 20.—'Hospitality
that marked the reception of Red t'ross
units delegated to Germany and Aus
tria-Hungary upon their arrival iu
Breslau was described yesterday in a
report fTom Consul Seltzer to the State
Department. They were officially re
ceived toy Dr. Von Guinther, OberJPrnis
adent of Silesia; Consul Seltzer, the
Austria-Hungarian Consul General Von
Pititner and officials of the Breslau
branch of the Red Cross.
A luncheon in their honor was given
that evening, the report stated, and
«o great was the crowd that gathered
outside the hotel that he police had
to make way for the automobiles which
carried the units tor Austria to the
railway station. The tables were dec
orated with American flags and the
singing of patriotic. American songs
was a feature. "The delegates were
unanimous in their expression that this
was t-be best -ret-option they had re
ceived anywhere,'' Consul Seltzer re
ported.
Of a luncheon which was tendered
the Red Cross nurses to Germany the
report adds:
''At the conclusion of the program,
when the orchestra played the 'Star-
Spangled Banner' and the delegates
imit.ed in singing this hymn, the entire
audience arose a* one man to express
their* kind respect for America. This
sentiment seems to be universal in
Germany, but the delegates say it was
nowhere so forcibly de-monsti »ted as in
