HOT TEA BREAKS
A COLD-TRY THIS
Get a small package of Hamburg
Breast Tea. or as the German folks
call it, "Hamburger Brust Thee," at any
pharmacy. Take a tablespoonful of the
tea, put a cup of boiling water upon
it. pour through a sieve and drink a
teacup full at any time. Tt is the most
effective way to break a cold and cure
grip, as it opens the pores, relieving
congestion. Also loosens the bowels,
thus breaking a cold at once.
It is inexpensive and entirely vege

"have been made in this city for the
presentation by local amateur talent
of the new scintillating operetta,
"Papa's Daughters." a production
which is said to be unsurpassed in the
excellence of its scenery, lighting ef
fects and costuming.

big acts, carrying fifteen principals and
special choruses. There are thirty-one
musical numbers, all published during
the present theatrical season.
The book of the new musical piece
is replete with brilliant dialogue, while
the lyrics are of the highest order, the
work of well-known 'composers. The
dances, it is promised, will be graceful
and fetching.
One hundred and twenty-five Harris
burg persons will participate in the
j>roduction of ""Papa's Daughters,"
evidencing the interest that has been
shown in the new operetta. tn the

that he had killed nobody, and then
his case was looked into. He wanted
the chief to collect $5 that some wom

KAISER SEES HIS TROOPS
ROUT THE FRENCH FORCES
IN BATTLE NEAR SOISSONS
Berlin, .lan. 14, By Wireless to Lon
don, 3.43 P. M. —Emperor William was
present in person during the spirited
battle on the Vregny plain, to the
northeast of Soissons, which resulted
yesterday in that elevated ground be
ing cleared of the French, and which
is described ia the German official state
ment given out this afternoon as "a
brilliant feat for our troops." In this
engagement the Germans claimed to
have captured 14 French officers and
1.150 men. The text of the communi
cation reads:
"In the western theatre of the war,
in the dunes near Nieuport and south
west of Ypers heavy fighting is going
on. The enemy directed an extremely
strong tire on westende. which they
soon will have entirely destroyed. Their
torpedo boats disappeared quickly as
soon as they received our lire.
"In continuation of the activities
on January S, northeast of Soissons,
our troops ai:ain made an att i.-k on the
heights of Vregny and cleared this
elevated plain of the enemy. In a pour
ing rain and deeply sodden clay, trench
after trench was taken by storm until
after dark, aud the enemy was driven
buck to the border of the elevate'
plain. Fourteen French officers and
1,130 men were taken prisoners and
four cannon, four machine guns and a
searchlight were captured —a brilliant
feat for our troops under the very eyes
of their uppermost war lords.
Northeast of the camp of Chalons
the French attacked yesterday, in
the morning and afternoon, with strong
forces, to the east of Perthes. They
penetrated at certain places, our
trenches, but were repulsed by energotic
counter attacks and driven back with
heavy losses into their own |>ositions,
leaving ItiO prisoners in our hands.
"In the Argonne and the Vosges
nothhi!,: of importance has occurred. In
the eistern theatre of war Russian *1 *
tacks to the southeast Gubminnen (East
Prussia) and to the enst of Loetzen
have been repulsed, and many hundreds
of prisoners have been taken. The sit
uation in Northern Poland is the same.
Our attacks west of the Vistula ar? be
ing continued. Nothing of importance
hes occurred on the eastern bank of the
PiJica.''

yards of earth.
The new bulkheads installed to keep

GERMANS CAIN GROUND IN
FORCING RACK RUSSIANS
AFTER FURIOUS FIGHTING
Petrograd Via London. dan. 14,
3.10 P. M.'—Furious, fighting has been
resumed in Russian Poland. The Rus
sian forces in the north which are push
ing toward Bast Pjussia, in the region
near Mlawla, have captured a number
of villages.
In the center the Germans have made
four violent attacks within the last 4S
hours. They forved hack the Russians
and occupied considerable ground.
Important bodies of Russiau troops
hav,> pushed northward from Warsaw
in the movement toward the western
end of the East Prussian frontier. They
have reoccivpied a number of villages
between MUuwia and Przasnysz, hither
to held by the Germans.
In the couter, at the junction of the
Bzura and Raw ha rivers where fighting
had been in progress for more than a
month, the Germans have! begun a new
movement of great vigor. Their ac
tivity centers along n line to the ea*t
of Socliaezew and Skiomiewice. It is
here that they have nvade four distinct
efforts to advance during the last two
days. Following a furious artillery ac
tion, the Germans occupied the district
to the northeast of Bolimow, including
the towns of Bin Skupi and Sue ha.
riiese positions are threo or four miles
southwest of Soehaezew and) five miles
oast of the Bzura, from which positions
there were reported officially to have
been driven out at the point of bayo

LATE WAR NEWS SUMMARY
Continued From First Page.
where Russia several months ago sus
tained one of the most severe defeats
of the war. In the Caucasus Russian
forces are again engaged in heavy
fighting with the' Turks, who, accord
ing to official Petrograd advices, have
sustained large losses in the late en
counters.
In Galicia and Bukowina, where
Russia's activities are directed against
Austria, there is now little activity,
severe weather having checked mili
tary operations.
On the western battlefields the
fighting in the region of Solsscns has
developed into unexpectedly large pro
portions. Both the Germans and the
allies apparently have thrown in heavy
reinforcements, and definite defeat for
either side might result in the reshap
ing of the battle line over a long sec
tion of the front.
Not only in the Soissons region, but
elsewhere along the front Germany is
believed to be sending in more troops
in response to the movement of Eng
land. which is pouring in fresh soldiers
weekly by the thousands. Ordinary
passenger traffic over railroads in Ger
many has been suspended for several
days and it is assumed that extensive
movements ot troops are under way.
• Although the Russian forces in
Northern Persia apparently offered no
resistance to the Turkish advance on
Talriz, small forces of Persians defend
ed their country from invasion, but
with no success. Of a guard of 400
Persian horsemen at Miandoab, the
"gateway to Persia," all but four were
killed.

ready, ami with the occupation by
Turkey of Tabriz in the Russian sphere
of influence in Persia.
This city of 200.000 people appar
ently was talten without fighting. On
the view of the fact that the small
Kussian garrison maintained in Tabriz
in times of peace had been withdrawn
it is believe*! that the sufferers by the
occupation, if any, are the Armenians,
whom the Kurds constituting the Turk
ish advance guard are always ready to
attack.
Today's dispatches from l'etrognad
say that the Turkish invasion of Per
sia continues and that the Turks are
i penetrating farther into the country,
j The Russians still claim to hold the
! up*per hand in the fighting in the Cau
' casus, in the vicinity of Kara-Urgan,
but that lack of details suggests that
the battle which has now been in pro
gress for seven days has not yet result
ed decisively for either side.
The principal feature of today's
news in London is the resignation of
Count Von Berehtold, the Austrian for
eign minister. Some maintain that his
action indicates that a crisis in the af
fairs of the dual monarchy is at hand.

liver and bowels like calomel—yet have
no dangerous after effects.
They start the bile and overcome con
stipation. That's why millions of boxes

cently received from Governor Tener a
request for an opinion in a matter

the appointment of two special officers
or policemen. In deciding that the
Governor has no authority to appoint
policemen for churches, 'Mr. Hargest
savs:
"The constitution anil bv-laws of
Pennsylvania do not use the terms
' charitable' and ' religious' interchange
ably. When the Legislature lias had oc
casion to legislate for religious corpo
rations or institutions it has done so in
plain terms. When the legislation has
referred to purely charitable institu
tions it has also used the appropriate
language. 1 am, therefore, of the opin
ion that the powers given to the U*>v
ernor to appoint policemen for associa
tions organized 'for any charitable pur
pose' do not include the power to ap
point special officers or policemen for a
church or other religious institution."

An Easy Way to
End Catarrh Forever
Simple Home Treatment Destroys Germs
of This Dangerous Disease
The reason why so many people who
suffer from Catarrh never seem able to
get cured is that they are continually
seeking the momentary relief of sprays,
douching, greasy creams, ointments,
etc. Sueh things do open up the swollen
nostrils and clear the head temporarily
beside stopping for a while the disgust
ing blowing, hawking, spitting and
choking but they never cure. To drive
out Catarrh for good you have got to
get down to its real causes. Catarrh is
a germ disease. The air is always full
of catarrh germs thrown off by one per
son and absorbed by another and when
the system does fail to throw off such
germs they find permanent lodgement in
the nose, throat and head and multiply
rapidly.
The germs of catarrh can best be de
stroyed by inhaling the pure medicated
air of Hyomei (pronounced Hyo-me).
This splendid ami powerful combination
of oil of Eucalyptus with other healing
agents has a wonderful germicidal ac
tion. You breathe its air into your
nose, throat and lungs by menus of a
small hard rubber inhaler which 11. C.
Kennedy and other leading druggists
in this vicinity supply with every com
plete treatment. Th: medicated air is
certain dsath to the germs of < atai'rh
and drives them completely out of your
system and when the germs are de
stroyed the catarrh with all its disagree
able symptoms will stop. Even two or
three minutes, use will give refreshiug
relief while if you will use it two or
three times a day for a few weeks it
will completely banish catarrh and ev
ery symptom of cutarrh. As Hyomei
is pleasant to breathe and is always
sold by druggists everywhere with "a
positive guarantee of successful results
or money back, surely no Catarrhal suf
ferer should go long before trying this
simple Lome remedy.—Adv.
