EFFECTS OF CIVIL SERVICE PLAN
There are likely to be some material shake-ups
the police forces of Harrisburg and other third
ass cities if the Walton bill providing civil serv
e examinations for the police and several other
upartinents is finally passed by the General As
tinbly. The legislative leaders agreed this morn
ig to try to pass it, and they are likely to succeed,
he measure was once passed by both branches but
lbsequently recalled from the Governor. Since
len it has been amended in several respects but
ot iu such a way as to eliminate the requirement
f two years' experience for present employes of
le various departments affected in order to make
lem exempt from the proposed examinations,
lu other words present employes of the several
epartmeuts affected wiio have not had two years
xperience will be "ripped" out under the pro
ost'd law ami can only get their jobs back if they
n-eecil in passing the civil service examinations
i the same basis as absolutely new applicants for
ie positions. In Harrisburg perhaps a dozen po
ccinen will be ousted if the measure finally be-
Dines a law.
While the civil service plan of selecting city em
loyes undoubtedly has some features of merit the
!an of the Walton bill for introducing the system
lay properly be subject to some criticism. Under
le operation of the system, as we understand the
lan, all old employes in the several departments
ffeeted must be retained save those lacking two
ears experience. In cities, therefore, in which the
olicemen, for instance, have been politically ap
ointed to their present posts, the political appoint
js must be retained without examination unless
ismissed on charges. It is easy to conceive, there
ire, of a condition in which the policemen of a
ty, appointed under the influence of a particular
olitical party, must be retained even in case an
ther political party ultimately obtains control of
ie city administration.
That would be well enough if the retained police
en were men who got their jobs through exami
ition in which politics had no part but as things
ould work out under the Walton bill the police
>rees would he composed of men appointed
trough political influence until such time as the
resent policemen were retired through age or until
ley died or were removed on charges,—save, of
>urse, in the cases of the few who would have to
[> because they have not served two years. i
THE FETE DAY OF JOAN OF ARC
On the fete day of Joan of Arc on Sunday, Eng-
Bh soldiers joined with French soldiers and civil
ns, according to reports, in paying tribute to the
emory of the maid of Orleans. The name itself
a reminder that England and France were once
igaged in a struggle which lasted a century, and
lat the conclusion of the Hundred years' War was
■ought about only when the troops of Britain were
riven to defeat and the troops of France led to
ictory by a seventeen-year old girl. Yet the sub
sets of George V now join with the citizens of the
rcnch republic in honoring the memory of that de
out and heroic Domremy maid.
About the statue of Joan of Arc in Paris were
iled flowers in profusion during Sunday's cele
ration. Those who regard the peasant girl as a
lint, knclj, at the feet of the images!' French and
nglish, Catholics and Protestants, soldiers ami
vilians, men and women, observed the fete day
perhaps the most prominent character but one
the history of France, and surely one of the
HARBTSBITRfi STAIMKDEPKNDENT. TUESDAY EVENING. MAY 18. 1915.
outstanding characters in the history of the entire
world.
It is no longer necessary to argue whether Joan
of Arc did or did not converse with messengers of
Heaven, or whether she was prompted by diviue
or by diabolic guidance to approach the Dauphin
with her unprecedented request and, winning con
sent, to lead her victorious troops in her country's
battles. The historic fact is that she, commander
in-chief of the armies of France at seventeen years
of age, did lead her soldiers from victory to vic
tory, winning for herself by these accomplishments
martyrdom and eternal fame.
The English condemned the Maid of Orleans to
be burned at the stake as a witch, and the French
made no efforts to x'escue her, yet those were the
English and the French of centuries ago, whose
prejudices were unlike the prejudices of the allied
English and French of to-day.
POSTAL SAVINGS BUSINESS BY MAIL
An extension of the postal savings system has
just been announced by Postmaster General Burle
son in an order permitting persons whose own post
offices are not included among the designated
postal savings banks to make deposits by mail in
such banks in their vicinities. The innovation will
Le of benefit especially to farmers living at consid
erable distances from the government's postal sav
ings depositories. The smaller postoffices are not
included in the postal savings system and their
patrons hail accordingly been deprived of the sys
tem s benefits before the issuance of the order per
mitting them to make deposits by mail in the larger
postoffices.
According to the Postmaster General the new
rule was made as the result of the insistent de
mands coming to the department, as an example
of which he quotes a letter received from a farmer,
advanced in age, who mildly complained that he
and his wife wanted to deposit their savings with
the government, but that they were told at the
nearest depository that their money could not be I
eared for at that office because they were not pat
rons of it. Under the new arrangement the aged |
couple will be able to send a money order repre
senting their savings to the designated depository,
and to withdraw desired amounts, likewise by mail,
at any time.
It is manifest that one great advantage of this
extension of the government's young postal savings
system will be to bring into circulation large
amounts of money that have previously been hoard
ed. Already there have been deposited in the pos
tal savings banks millions of dollars that had before
been secreted in many thousands of stockings and
in numerous other hiding places.
It has been pointed out by the Postmaster Gener
al that postal savings receipts have during the last
year broken all records, and an interesting piece
of additional information is that more than half
ol these receipts come from foreign-born citizens.
Immigrants turn to the government for the safe
guarding of their money principally because they
have had sad experiences with swindlers of their
own nationalities who have conducted private banio.
at times and gone off with the deposits. The war,
too, has had something to do with it, since foreign
ers who had been sending money abroad before the
outbreak of hostilities are now making their de
posits at the grated windows of Uncle Sam's post
offices instead.
Further increases of postal savings deposits may
be expected since the department has entered the
mail order business, so to speak, and is disposing
of its postal savings certificates by means of its
own postal service.
The legislators who took a ten-day vacation for Wash
ington s Birthday are now paying up for it by remaining
in session until after midnight.
Colonel Roosevelt, or at least the colonel's lawyers, are
demonstrating in the Barnes controversy that they still
have the fighting spirit.
Apparently not all the purging of the New York state
Republican linen has yet been accomplished.
Uncle Sam's people are making good in their determina
tion uot to become unduly excited pending receipt of the
Kaiser's reply.
The fact that Portugal has kept out of the general
European mix-up does not prevent her from having a little
family row of her own.

MADE A DIFFERENCE
Miller sued a man named Moore for slander because the
latter had called him a hippopotamus on several occasions
during the previous year. The attorney for the defense
said to Miller:
"Why, man, you have no case. If your feelings were
hurt you should have sued Moore at once, instead of wait
ing a year."
"Yes, yes," replied Miller, "but I never saw a hippo
potamus nntil last week."—National Monthly.
HOW DID HE KNOW
The new curate had preached a very fine sermon that
morning on "Married Life." Two old Irishmen who had
been fast friends for years were discussing the address as
they walked home together.
"It was a line sermon his rivcrence was after givin' us
this morning, Tim," commented one.
"It was that," quickly assented the other, then with a
dissenting frown he continued, "nn' I wish I knew as little
about the matter as he doas."—National Monthly.

Hood's S&rsap&rilla Cleanses the Blood,

Scrofula eruptions on the face and
body uro both annoying aud disfiguring.
Many a complexion would be perfect if
they were not present!
This disease shows itself in other
ways, as bunches in the neck, inflamed
eyelids, sore ears, wasting of the
muscles, a form of dyspepsia, and gen
eral debility.
Ask your druggist for Hood's Snr
snparilla. This great medicine com
pletely eradicates scrofula. It purifies
and enriches the blood, removes humors,
and builds up the whole system. It has
stood the test of forty years, and has
received thousands of testimonials of
the entire satisfaction it has given.
Scrofula is either inherited or ac
quired. Better bo sure you are quite
free from it. Get Hood's Sarsaparilla
and begin taking it to-day.—Adv.

Learning Germany's Glass Secrets
Formulas for making the finer glasses
for which Great Britain has been de
pendent on Germany have been evolved
by the glass research committee of the
Institute of Chemistry in London. Un
breakable glass for miners' lamps aud
glass capable of standing high degrees
of heats for test tivbes, retorts, steam
gauges and the like had been entirely
imported from Germany, 'but analyses of
glass of tliis kind conducted at King's
College, London, by Professor Herbert
Jackson, T. P. 'Merton and assistants,
have at least 'been helpful in suggesting
synthetic, experiments. Tho work in
volved a.careful study of the chemistry
of silicates, aiuminates, borates and the
like in. relation to the manufacture of
glass. As the result, the research com
mittee reports eleven formulas which
have been subjected to rigorous prac
tical tests to prove their suitability.
Among the most successful is one lor
miners' lamps—a matter of great im
portance in the coal mining districts.
The formulas : have been put at the serv
ice of the manufacturers without charge
in order that these special glasses may
soon be produced on a large industrial
scale.

Ban on Tourist Guide Books
No tourist guide books, prospectuses
and maps whatever may be sold iu a
belt 100 kilonietess deep, slightly more
than sixty miles, extending clear around
the empire. Certain other districts are
included in the prohibition. Popular
tourist regions thus affected include all
Posen, East and West Prussia, Pom
erauia, the 'Rhine, the Vosges, part of
the Black Forest, the Eifel, the Ba
varian Rheinpfalz and the Nosefle re
gion. The prohibition does not mean
that tourists may visit none of the
places affected. I.Vlost of them may be
visited as usual, even including the
bathing resorts of the Baltic, and the
lake region of the Mccklen'burgs.

Taking German Teachers' Places
To provide employment for •Germans
possessing a knowledge of 'French and
English, who fled to Germany at the
outbreak of the war, t'he Minister of
Education has empowered the authori
ties of higher schools and colleges to
employ them as instructors of languages
without many of the usual formali
ties. Educated women similarly in need
of employment can be taken into the
middle and lower classes of 'boys schools,
and may receive permission to teach
privately without the usual credentials.
Men will 'be required only to furnish
evidence of suitable character, not of
teaching ability. In increasing num
bers such men are taking the places of
regular teachers called to the front as
part of the "landsturm." The new
rules apply until the end of the war.

English are Studying Russian
Russian is the popular language fad
of the hour in 'London, and conversation
classes are thriving in high society as
well as among young men looking for
commercial openings in Russia after the
war. The King's College of the Uni
versity of '.London plans to establish a
school of Slavonic languages, to include
Polish, Serbian and other Balkan
tongues as well as Russian. An offer
of an approprjate library for this pur
pose has 'been made by Seton Watson.
There are now in King's seventy Rus
sian students, driven out of the 'German
and Belgian universities, who are tak
ing courses mostly in engineering and
medicine.

Church of 1450 Was Menaced
The ancient church of St. Olave's,
in London, whetf Pepys, the diarist, is
'buried, recently had a narrow escape
from a fire that destroyed a large cork
factory nearly. Pieces of burning cork
rained on the roof of the church, which
dates from 1450, and was one of the
few churches to escape the great fire of
London. When firemen reached" the roof,
the tim'ber covering the water cistern
was ablaze, but no further damage was
done. The buildings in the district are

MIKADO'S SISTER MARRIED
American Charge d'Affaires Oueßt at
Wedding of Princess Yasu
Tokio, May 18. —A brilliant court
wedding took place yesterday when
Princess Yasu, the youngest sister of!
the Emperor, was married to Prince |
Naruhiko'Higashi-Kuni, attached to the
Second Army division.
This was the first court event since
the close of the mourning pVriod for the
late Empress Haru'ko. Tt was notable
as inaugurating a season of court and
national gaiety which will find its
climax in the great accession ceremon
ies at Kyoto in November.
All the imperial princes and princesses
were present. The American Charge
d'Affaires, George Post Wheeler, and
Mrs. Wheeler were among t'he guests.
Dull, Faded or Lifeless Hair
Quickly Restored to Its
Natural Beauty
If your hair is anything short of
perfect; if it is losing color, too dry,
brittle, thin, or if the scalp burns
and itches, you should immediately
begin the use of Parisian Sage. The
first application of this safe and al
ways reliable tonic removes every
trace of dandruff, cools and invig
orates the scalp and beautifies the
hair until it is gloriously radiant.
Parisian Sage supplies all hair
needs and does not injure either the
hair or scalp. It contains the exact
elements needed to make the hair
soft and 4vavy, and lo make it grow
long, thick and beautiful. It is a
delicately-perfumed liquid not
sticky or greasy—that can bo had
at 11. C. Kennedy's, or any drug
counter.
Parisian Sage acts instantly—one
application stops the head from
itching and freshens up the hair.
You will be surprised and delighted
with this helpful toilet necessity, for
nothing else is so good for the hair
and scalp, and nothing so quickly
beautifies the hair, giving it that
enviable charm and fascination.
Parisian Sage is one of the quickest
iK-ting hair tonics known—inex
pensive and easily used at home. —
