John Napper, who runs a res
taurant in Chambersburg for col
ored people, is considering the
idea of leasing the Hotel John in

, ing parties have a hard time to
find lodgings, and it is thought
sufficient trade could be had from
this source to make the hotel pay
The Hotel John is among the
ones that failed to obtain license
this year.

WALL PAPER
It is not too soon to begin to think
of spring housecleaning. This means
more than the beating of dust out of
carpets, mopping the floor and wash- :
ing the windows. Nothing adds so
much to the BRIGHTNESS AND
CIIEERINESS of a home, to say
nothing of the SANITARY value,
as a new, bright beautiful and up-to-date
wall paper.
George W. Reisner & Co., have
anticipated your wants and have ;
just placed on their shelves the

Sheep, or Dogs?
The United States Department
of Agriculture is going after the
dog question in communities
where sheep should be a .factor
in the economical management
of farms. Hundreds of farmers
would raise, at least, a few sheep
for profit if they had the assur
ance that dogs would not kill
them. One roving, worthless
cur can do thousands of dollars
worth "of damage, not only by
killing sheep, but by preventing
farmers from trying to raise
them. The pity is that the worth
less cur is, in most cases, the
property of some worthless citi
zenmaking the loss a double
one. The Department puts it as
follows:
"It is seldom that the highly
bred, well-kept dogs attack
sheep. The roving nondescripts
do most of the damage. Com
munities in which the majority
of the people consider sheep to
be of more importance than dog3,
will have a sentii nent fiat is not
healthful for do,s that l,ravel independently."
A Real Nerve And
Bodj'-Building Medicine.
We believe Rexall Olive Oil
Emulsion is the best remedy made
for toning the nerves, enriching
the blood, building up wasted tis
sues, renewing health, strength
and energy the best medicine
you can use if you are run-down
tired out, nervous and debilitated
no matter what the cause. It
doesn't depend tor its good ef
feet upon alcohol or habit form
ing drugs, because it contains
none. It may not make you feel
better in a few hours, but it will
make you feel better, we are sure
just as soon as the tonic and food
properties it contains have a
chance to get into the blood and,
through the blood, into tho rest
of the system. Pure Olive Oil
and ' the Hypophospbites havo
long been endorsed by success
ful physicians, but here, for the
tirst time, they are combined in
to oue preparation, which, as a
nerve food and a builder of
strength and health, we believe,
has no equal.
If you don't feel well, begin to j
take Rexall Olive Oil Emulsion to
day, and build your health and
strengthen your system against
mora serious illness. To conva
lescent, old peoplf, puny children
and all others who ar weak, run
down or ailing, we offer Rexall
Olive Oil Emulsion with our per
sonal promise that, if it doesn't
make you well and strong Rgain,
itwillcowt vou nothing If we
didn't have the utmost faifcb in it,
we wouldn't offer it with this
guarantee, ror even recommend
it to vou. V(t are sure that once
you have used it you will lecom
mend it. to your friends, and
thank us for having recommen
ded it to you. Sold only at the
more than 7,001 Rexall Stores
and in this town only by us.

his foot for an axe the other day
to break up box lids for kindling

He said it makes him about half
