If -Your Neighbor
Has Electric Light
and you have not, just step into his house some evening
after dark and compare its light with your own. Study
each point of convenience, cleanliness, clearness and
beauty carefully and then figure out for yourself if it
would not pay you well to have your house wired for
electric light at once.
Electric light is cheaper than ever before. Use G. E.
Mazda lamps and you will get an abundance of clean,
clear and bright illumination. Price of Mazda Lamps

PUT STOMACH IN
FIMNDITION
Says Indigestion Results From An
Excess of Hydrochloric
Acid
Undigested for 1 delayed in the stom
ach decays, or rather, ferments the same
as food left in the open air, says a noted
authority. He also tells us that Indiges
tion is caused by Hvper-acidity, mean
ing, there is an excess of hydrochloric
acid in the stomach which prevents com
plete digestion and starts food fer
mentation. Thus everything eaten sours
in the stomach much like garbage sours
in a can, forming acrid fluids and gases
which inflate the stomach like a toy
balloon. Then we feel a heavy, lumpy
misery in the chest, we \belch up gas,
we eructate sour food or have heart
burn, flatulence, water-brash or nausea.
He tells us to lay aside all digestive
aids and instead, get from any phar
macy four ounces of Jad Salts and take
a> tablespoonful in a glass of water be
fore breakfast and drink while it is
effervescing and furthermore, to con
tinue this for a week. While relief fol
lows the first dose, it is important to
neutralize the acidity, remove the gas
making mass, start the liver, stimulate
the kidneys and thus promote a free
flow of pure digestive juices.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon juice,
combined with lithia and sodium phos
phate. This harmless salts is used by
thousands of people for stomach trouble
with excellent results.—Adv.

DESOLATION IN RUSSIAN
POLAND DESCRIBED AFTER
RUSSIANS FLEE TERRITORY
(Correspondence of Associated Press)
Berlin, Saturday, April 10. —A pic
ture of indescribable desolation with
fully 5,500 houses destroyed, thou
sands of peasants homeless and living
in holes in the ground, absolute cessa
tion of auy kind of work that shall
provide for a fall harvest, is drawn
in the reports now reaching here from
Russian Poland.
The retreating Russians, fleeing be
fore the German advance, appear to
have treated their own territory quite
as severely as they did East Prussia
earlier and to have left a miserable
wilderness in which disease is apt to
appear at any moment, aud starvation
is almost a certainty within a short
time.
The peasants, or those who still re
main, show utter indiffereuco to their
condition and are making not the
slightest effort to reconstruct what has
been torn and burned, nor to plant
crops of any kind. The majority of
those of military age are away in the
armies, or dead, and the old and youn'g
left behind seem unconscious of what
the results of their inactivity are apt
to be. n
Three quarters of Poland has been
hit by the war and damage estimated
at half a 'billion dollars has been done.
Practically all the cattle and horse
flesh in the country have been carried
off by the retreating Russians.

Mclntyre and Heath
They were the first to introduce the
negro dances on the stage forty years
ago. The comedians nave not been
apart for a day in forty years. (Mc
lntyre has earned $300,000 in his
"Georgia Minstrel" suit. iHeath is an
ex-circus elown; Mclntyre was a bare
back rider when a boy in 1871 with
the Van Amberg's circus. The comedy
team has 'broken more records than any
other actor in the world. Their con
tinuous partnership is one record, the
life of their classy: "Georgia Min
strels" in "The Ham Tree" is an
other, and attendance at theatres where
they appear is another. The contract
with John Cort is for four years at a
joint salary of $75,000 a season. Mc
lntyre and Heath with there big com
pany will be seen at the Majestic this
evening in "The Fam Tree. —Adv.*
"Twin Beds" '
That an apartment house is more un
sociable than ever a populated cliff, was
in the stone age, is amply demonstrated
by the clever lines and situations which
Margaret Mayo )tas embodied in her
hilarious farce, ''Twin Beds." That
certain feminine natures are unable to
exist within themselves and yearn for
the companionship of their own s'ex,
is charmingly illustrated in the char
acter of Blanche Haukins, the butter
fly wife, so beautifully portrayed by
petite and charming \fargaret Boland.
Women, whose existence to that of Mrs.
Hawkins, will sympathize with and en
joy the role. Selwvn & Company are
sending their production of "Twin
Beds" to the Majestic for a return en
gagement next Friday afternoon and
evening.—Adv.*
Record Crowds See Bachelor Dinner
The crowds that have been attending
the Colonial theatre the last few days
have set a new standard of capacity for
the Colonial theatre. By putting on
"The Bachelor Dinner," Wilmer & Vin
cent stuck the public's fancy. This is
a big musical comedy girl act, with lots
of life and ginger to it. It is a good
act to look at and a good act to listen
to. If to-day's business at the Colonial
holds up to what is looked for, the past
three days will probably go to make
a new retord at the Colonial. The new
bill that comes to the Colonial ou 'Mon
day will present as a headline feature
the Kolonial Kids 'band, an aggregation
of youthful Harrisburg musicians who
have been trained by Richard Kilgore,
assistant manager of the Colonial the
atre, and Ed war ' M. Fischler, a mem
ber of the Orpheum orchestra. This
baud is forty pieces strong, and now
ranks with the best of the juvenile
bands in the country. It is an institu
tion that Harrisburg should be proud
of, for there are few cities in the
United States that can boast of a band
like this one. Their forthcoming en
gagement at the Colonial theatre is for
the purpose of 'buying sum me- uniforms
and the boys are ho;eful that the the
atre will play tb big business as Wil
mer & Vincent have promised the
youths every cent of profit that might
result from their engagement. —Adv.'
' At the Regent
"C. O. D., ' a comedy in four parts,
is to-day's attraction "at the Regent
theatre and is sure to please the maiiv
patrons who daily attend the popular
photoplay house. *"C. O. D.'' is a story
of rural life and its dozens of funny
situations make it one of the best
moving pictures on the market to-day.
But the big comedy is not all that is in
store for the Regent's patrons to-day.
The ; Hearst-Selig News Pictures No.
27 are also hooked and they portray all
of the interesting events "which "have
taken place in the United States and
foreign countries during the past sever
al weeks. Then, too, the funniest man
in the "movies" will be on the pro
gram. He is Charlie Chapman and he
will appear in "The Tramp.™ "Si and
Sue, Acrobats," will conclude the pro
gram. Adv.
Photoplay To-day
Marc McDermott, the finished Edison
actor, appears to-day in a three-act
drama, "The Deadly Hate." No one
better than Marc McDermott could
play the double role of the Twin
Brothers and in one be a kind, courte
ous man and the other a man filled with
hate for his brother. Both determined
to win the same girl. This wonderful
production has been adapted from the
play by Gecrge Roberts and is a mas
terpiece in itseif. "The Justice of
