/A "Sural I Us. TIZ

You can be happy-footed just like
me. Use "TIZ" and never suffer with
tender, raw, burning, blistering, swol
len, tired, smelly feet. "TIZ" and only
"TIZ" takes the pain and soreness out
of corns, callouses and bunions.
As soon as you put your feet in a
"TIZ"* bath, you just feel the happiness
soaking in. How good your poor, old
tfeet feel. They want to dance for joy.
•"TIZ" is grand. "TIZ" instantly draws
'out all the poisonottß exudations which
puff up your feet and cause sore, in
flamed, aching, sweaty, smelly feet.
Get a 25-cent box of "TIZ" at any
drug store or department store. Get in
stant foot relief. Laugh at foot suffer
ers who complain. Because your feet
are never, never going to bother or
make you limp any more.—Adv.

War Pictures Return
Moving pictures of the European

fire by a corpsdaring photographers,
will play a return engagement at the
Majestic on Saturday afternoon and
evening. The pictures are authentic and
are among the best the public of Har

viewing. The film to be shown at the
Majestic is wholly impartial. from
scenes showing the excitement in va
rious countries when the war broke out,
the mobilizing of armies and the de
parture of regiments to the front in the
first days of the great event, the spec
tator is brought down to recent fight

a glimpse of war as it really is.—Adv..*

Thin People
Can Increase Weight
Thin men and women who would like
to increase their weight with 10 or 15
pounds of healthy "stay there" fat
should try eating a little Sargol with
their meals for a while and note results.
Here is a good test worth trying. First
weigh yourself and measure yourself.
Then take Sargol—one tablet with
every meal—for two weeks. Then
weigh and pleasure again. It isn't a
question of how you look or feel or
what your friends say and think. The .
scales and the tape measure will tell
their own story, and most any thin man
or woman can easily add from five to
eight pounds in the first fourteen dav.f
by following this simple direction. And
best of all, the new flesh stays put.
Sargol does not of itself make fat,
but mixing with your food, it turns the
fats, sugars and starches of what you
have eaten, into rich, ripe fat pro
ducing' nourishment for the tissues and
blood —prepares it in any easily assim
ilated form which the blood cari readily
accept. All this nourishment now passes
from your body as waste. But Sjargol
stops the waste and does it quickly and
makes the fat producing contents of
the very same meals you are eating now
develop pounds and pounds of healthy
flesh between your skin and hones. Sar
gol is safe, pleasant, efficient and inex
pensive. G. A. Oorgas and other lead
ing druggists in Harrisburg and vicinity
sell it in large boxes—forty tablets,to a
package—oij a guarantee of weight in
crease or money back.—Adv.
more interesting list of plavs, and it
is these carefully selected bills, all
metropolitan successes, that has enaliled
the Champlin Stock Company to weath
er the storms while others have fallen
by the wayside. A company of talent
and ability, surrounded by sparkling
electrical effects and gorgeous scenerv,
assures theatregoers of this city the
last degree in repertoire. The days of
melodrama are gone. The theatre lovers
of to-day require plays of refinement,
plays of pathos with a large vein or
humor, ami prolong gusts of laughter.
The list of plays presented next week
goes deep into the heart of every audi
tor. Mr. Champlin has surrounded him
self with a company of talented artists,
who are the best products of the stock
market. Such notables as John Todd,
Ben L. Taggart, Waldemar Burkhart,
Walter S. Percival, William Roll, Bich
ard Foote, Francis Townsend, Miss
Mary Louise Malloy, Miss Jessie Ly
ons and Miss Ebba Andrus, have been
blended into an organization which, to
gether with the newest and latest plavs
and many novelties, will make the en
gagement in this city one of the most
successful and most deserving ever pre
sented by any stock organization.—

At the Orpheum
The fine bill of Keith hits at the Or
pheum this week is certainly strikin®
the fancy of local vaudeville devotees.
And this popularity is not alone due to
the exceeding cleverness of Emma Car
us and Carl Randall, the musical coined v
couple, who headline the offering. They
of course carry away the big honors,
but there are three or four other big
Keith hits on the same bill that ore
pleasing Harrisburg audiences immen
sely. Not the least important of these
is the local favorite, Bert Fitzgibbons,
who styles himself the "nolbody home"
. comedian. Bert's right, for he brings
the biggest package of squirrel food
we evef had unloaded safely so near
Capitol Park. Bert says he carries an
extra amount of insurance while he's
in Harrisburg, for he even thinks him
self that it's necessary.
But his jokes are all new and so are
his antics and songs. When he tells a
joke and throws his hat and cane hither
and thither, his audience goes crazv '
with him. He s an eccentric and clever
comedian and he's a favorite here. The
Welling Levering tronpe of comedv
bicyclists have no end of ridiculously
funny things on wheels, and a prettv
girl, who can ride the wheels too, but
who looks better. There's a splendid
, group of singers in an act luiown as
, The Volunteers, and the other acts of
i this bill arc above the average.
