FIND GETTYSBURG
IN BEST OF SHAPE.

Gettysburg, Pa.-To make a thor
ough inspection of the work COM
pleted at the camp to be occupied
by 10000 Civil War veterans in
July, Major General Witherspoon,
Assistant Secretary of War Brecken-
ridge and Lieutenant Brainard visit
ed Gettysburg and found everything G
so far advanced that no doubt exists
that the camp will be completed in
ample time.
Major j. E. Normoyle, who is in
charge of the construction and con-
duct of the camp, accompanied the
party here from Washington and at
tention was given to the general To-
cation and layout of the big camp
site, the sanitary arrangements, the
water supply, the location of the
kitchens and mess tents and all 9TH
er phases of the camp.
Four large water storage tanks
were found entirely completed and
the water supply of sufficient quality
and volume to meet all demands. A
portion of the towns water supply
is also to be available in case it is
needed. Hundreds of tents are al
ready in place and the stakes have
been driven for the balance.
The representatives of the War
Department also noted with satisfac-
ton that the complete equipment of
lighting the tented city with cleo
tricity has been finished and that vet
Grams will have no trouble with a
dark camp at the time of their visit
here in July.
Lieutenant Colonel Beitler, secre-
tary of the Pennsylvania Commits
sion having the anniversary in
charge, and Lieutenant Colonel
Nicholson, chairman of the National
Park Commission, accompanied the
tour of inspection.

DANGER IN CONSUMING
SUMMER DRINKS.


The near advent of the warm sea-
son with it's attendant thirst, coupled
with the great American habit of
consuming large quantities of soda
water and other soft" drinks, have
prompted the New York city and
Montana boards of health in recent
bulletins to deal with this subject.
The Montana bulletin contains an ar
ticle giving long list of bottled, car
donated beverages which were found
either adulterated or misbranded
when examined in the state labora-
tory. Most of them contained sac
charm, samples of 'ginger ale" con-
tanned capsicum but no ginger, and
the fruit beverages all contained ar
tificial flavors and colors which were
not declared on the label. 1t is also
stated that since saccharin does not
aid foaming as does sugar the man
ufacturers are in the habit of using
extract of soap-bark, which produces
good foam. Not only is this sub
stance deceptive, but also the soap
bark contains toxic principle, capo-
toxin, which is markedly poisonous.
The bulletin Of the New York city de-
partment of health sets forth a regu-
lation prohibiting the use of soap
bark in beverages and in filings used
by bakers. Violations of this regu-
lation will be criminally prosecuted.
The Journal of the American Medi-
cal association thinks that the pre-
vailing habit of consuming large
quantities of bottled, carbonated bev-
erages in hot weather is undoubted-
ly productive of much harm. The
knowledge that poisonous chemicals
are among the ingredients should
discourage their use. Probably
neither the conscience of the man
ufacturers nor statutory or health
board regulations will entirely pre-
vent the sophistication of these soft
drinks.
In addition to the drinks contain
ing dangerous chemical lavoring and
coloring substances, there are other
temperance" drinks equally dan
gerous, especially for the children
and young persons who indulge in
them so freely. Many of the rather
misnamed "tonic" drinks that are
so widely advertised have been
shown by the United States govern
ment analysis to contain considerable
proportions of caffein. 1t is easy to
understand that long after taking
these caffein-containing cold drinks
the feeling of fatigue may drop from
one. Caffein is not, however, a de-
sirable stimulant to serve indiscrim-
inately to growing children or young
adults, especially those city dwellers
whose nervous systems certainly need
no artificial stimulation. Besides,
caffein seems to have a definite ten
dency to the formation of a habit.
Not a little of the restlessness of
children during the summer is to be
attributed to the taking of caffein
in considerable quantities in the
form of these soda-fountain drinks.
The parents sometimes discover that
distinct craving for the particular
drink has been created and that the
child pleads for money to satisfy that
craving.

GENUINE ECZEMA REMEDY.
New Remedy That Heals Eczema
Quickly.

Peil, the druggist, has sold hund-
reds of jars Of Hokara, and although
he offers to refund the purchase
price to any dissatisfied purchaser,
not one jar has been returned.
While this is surprising in itself,
yet the most marvellous thing is the
reports of chronic cases of eczema
that have been cured by this simple
skin food. People who have suffer
ed with scales, scabs and even bleed
ing itching have found relief in
Hokara.
No matter where the eczema, pim-
pies or other breaking out occurs,
whether on the face, hands, legs or
body, the application Of Hokara
should give quick relief, and even
the worst or most chronic cases
should be cured in short time.
You can buy a liberal-sized jar to-
day at the very low price of 25c, and
with every package goes Peirs guar
antee to refund the money if it is
not satisfactory.

Augmentation Bill.

The general appropriation bill
carrying over $42,000,000, is expect
ed to be reported to the house some
time this week. Impeachment petit
tion matters will occupy some of the
time of the house, as the majority
and minority reports of the commit
tee which investigated the charges
against Judge G. N. Brumm, of
Schuylkill, will probably be reached
about the middle of the week if the
reports and testimony are printed in
time.
Labor Commissioner Appointed.
Governor Tener has approved the
bill creating the department of Ia
Dor and industry and appointed
Prof. John Price Jackson, of State
College as the commissioner.
The new department will take
over the duties and powers of the de-
partment of factory inspection.
Three bureaus are created by the
bill, inspection, statistics and arbi-
tration. The first will handle the
work of the factory inspection de-
partment, the second industrial and
other statistics, and the third will
mediate in case of strikes. Power is
given to create other bureaus. The
commissioner will receive a salary of
$4,000 per year and there will be a
chief inspector at $4,000, chief
clerk at $4,000 and other office at
taches, together with an attorney at
$4,000. The chief inspector will
have charge of the inspection bur-
eau and will have fifty-eight inspec-
tors under him, while the bureau of
statistics will be headed by a chief
at $4,000, the mediation bureau to
be in charge of a chief at $3,500.
The bill creates an industrial
board composed of the commission
er and four members to be appoint
ed by the governor, the latter to be
paid $40 per day when employed.
This board is charged with wide
powers of investigation.

we recommend The PHILADELPHIA
Sunday Record to all High-Grade
Home Lovers.
1t is seldom that there comes to
us a paper we can praise as whole
some and clean in every respect
but The Philadelphia Sunday Rec
ord certainly deserves it's title as
"the greatest home newspaper of
ALL"
1t has feature pages for every
member of the family. We were
surprised at the variety and scope OF
its articles. The best artists and
authors each week contribute some
of the work that has made them
famous.
The story that interested us the
most concerned an old barn near
here that we used to play around SO
many years ago that we are ashamed
to tell
1t is just this clean, human in
terest touch that makes The Phila-
delphia Sunday Record a favorite
everywhere, particularly in the coun-
try.
Best of all, it costs only three
cents. You had better do as we did
order next Sundays copy today
