AFTER YOU ARE FORTY

Forty years is middle age or should
be. People who squander their youth
are old at forty; everybody needs to
give little more care to health and
careful living after passing the for
tieth milestone.
The reserve of strength is not what
it used to be. Nature needs little
help IL we are to continue the work
and worry of modern life. To most
people DIR. Williams Pink Pills, nonal-
coholic, but supporting tonic, gives
just the necessary assistance.
These pills make the thin blood rich
and red, carry nourishment to weak
and inflamed nerves, increase the ap-
petite and make digestion normal,
correct sleeplessness and most forms
of headache. Try them for any trou-
BILE caused by thin blood or weak
nerves such as anaemia, rheumatism,
neuralgia, sciatica, lumbago, indiges-
ton, sick headache or ST. Vitus' dance
1t is surprising how many diseases are
due to thin and impure blood, how
quickly they yield when by proper
treatment the blood is built up and the
starved nerves nourished. DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills contain no poisonous
or habit-forming drugs and cannot do
harm.
Pamphlets on the treatment of dis
eases of the blood and nerves will be

Senator Penrose appears to be
well acquainted, with one Vance c.
Mccormick, judging from his speech

Mccormick might stop asking
questions and answer few of those
hurled at him lately Especially the
Quay charge that Finn is to benefit
through the highway department in
event of McCormicks election.
Some very interesting Mccormick
meetings are being held in this city

That anti-liquor meeting had no
time for such sentiments as those ex-
pressed by Henry Wilbur. one of the
most noted temperance men of the
State.
The Mccormick roller was dented
some before it finally flattened out
Tyson Kratz yesterday.
1t remains to be seen whether the
colonel is as strong as an advocate of

-Rumors that the Democrats who
did the applauding for Mccormick in
Chestnut Street Hall Wednesday are
to form an association are unfounded.
1t is not true that a picture show
ing Bill Finn and Vance Mccormick
shaking hands is to be put on the Bull
Moose banner.
How different the Patriot of 1912

INVESTING MONEY AT HOME

r is interesting to the newspaper
man, as he reads his exchanges, to
see how sharp the competition is
for new manufacturing industries
Cities from far and near tumble over
each other with special inducements
the moment they hear that any con-
Germ contemplates a move.
Our town should be active in this
game, difficult as it is. Meanwhile
the fact is worth attention, that many
town while campaigning earnestly
for distant concerns, is neglectins
chances that originate at home.
There are young men in this place
as there are everywhere, who would
be perfectly competent to manage a
business proposition if they had capi-
tai. They would like to start a new
industry here. Meanwhile money is
being sent away, because our people
don't know OF hopeful chances to in
vest at home.
The concern from a distance that
may be attracted by special induce
ments may or may not stay when the
inducements expire. The concern
backed by home enterprise and CAPT
tai is rooted in home soil
To many people the distant invest
ment looks more attractive. But II
might not seem so If examined on
the spot. Money invested at home
is under close inspection, which
should prevent losses. Wherefore
when our young men want little
capital to start a new enterprise
their claims should have the most
careful consideration.

road disaster. Normal people will
find Europe in turmoil for several
years. Everyone having leisure and
money for travel may we'll take this
time to familiarize himself with the
wonders to be seen at home.
The war should teach renewed
respect for American ideas and insti-

have been loading themselves up with

highways, educating its children, re-
moving disease and improving its
farms.
While Europe is now destroying
matchIess relics of the past, Ameri-
cans have been erecting churches and
monuments. painting pictures and
carving statues. Much of this work is
crude. but much is very wonderful,
like that of our own State Capitol,
for instance. While foreign powers
are working off the cruel fevers of
barbarism, let us here at home value
at its true worth all that our own
builders and artists have done.
There ought now to be in every
American heart a renewed affection
for his native land. 1t should stand
for him as the home of peace. as the
land where love and science and labor
are the ideals, not blood and iron.
one should realize better the gor-
geous scenic beauty of our fair land,
and feel deeper interest in the abound
ing energy of American achievement.
Let the traveller then. until Europe
.repents of it's wild insanity, seek to
learn more of what God and man
have done for his own native land!

! Editorial COMMENT
THE WITHDRAWAL of DEAN LEWIS
FROM THE CAMPAIGN
[From the PhIladelphia Public Ledger

[From the Philadelphia Public Ledger ]
The formal withdrawal of Dean
Lewis in favor of the Democratic can
didate, Vance C. Mccormick. is now an
accomplished fact, but the true inward
ness of the political maneuver remains
as deep a mystery as ever.
The assumption that the withdrawal
of Mr.. Lewis from the Gubernatorial
race remotely benefits the anti-Penrose
campaign is absurd. AS one observer
expressed 1t, Mr.. Pinchot has the ap-
pendicitis, but Mr. Lewis submits to
the operation.

THE CITY,s "FRoNT steps,

n 7 OW that the Susquehanna river
M has dropped to its lowest sum-
mer stage and the opportunity
is ripe for clearing away the
refuse outside the Front Steps," we
shall doubtless see all sorts of activity
in that direction.
1t would be most unfortunate should
the fine improvement of the wall and
steps be marred in any way by failure
TO remove the rubbish which has accu-
mulated over long period of years
along the shore line. Much of the
silt and accumulation of the years has
already been removed by the contrac-
tors on the River Front improvement,
but there is still hundreds of tons of
this matter that ought to be eliminated
without delay.
When the dam shall have been
finally closed and the higher level of
water established IL will not be so easy
to get rid of the rocks, trunks of trees,
old stumps and other materials which
will be a menace to those who are
fond of canoeing and motorboating.
LUZ 'hS AllOl Z StllOuS plldSS VI tie Ildl-
ter is that the wall will lose somewhat
of its attractive character as perma-
nent improvement so long as the dirt
is permitted to obstruct the free flow
of water along the steps.
The contractors have made splendid
progress during the summer, and il is
now practically certain that the en-
tire undertaking will be completed at
least to Maclay street before cold
weather. This means that arrange
ments for the big river carnival next
summer will go forward during the
winter.
1t is also the intention of Commits
sioner Taylor to put the slope in pre-
sentable ishapei as rapidly as possible
and to follow with the--rplanting of
hardy shrubbery for the protection of
the embankment.
Altogether the improvement is
bound to attract the thousands of Wis
itors who come our way every year.
More and more the citizens of Harris
burg are appreciating Just what the
great work along the River Front will
mean for the future of the city, not
only in the esthetic character of the
Improvement, but in the actual COM
fort and pleasure of the people.

ment.
Every speech by DR.. Brumbaugt
has been not only more than appro-
pirate, but so tactfully has he handled
every situation as to win nothing but
admiration. The result has been con-
stant additions to the ranks of his
followers and pledges of loyalty and
support, even when the gatherings
have been of other than a political
nature.
From the outset DR.. Brumbaugh
has insisted that he has no alliances
or agreements with any man or set
Of men. His utterances have carried
conviction with them by the very es-
sence of the truth which they con-
tanned. Every suggestion of making
deals has been spurned by this man
of impeccable integrity, who has stood
like rock against every entreaty tc
swerve from the course he mapped
out for himself. The latest evidence
of his immovable adherence to right
and determination has been his decli-
nation to become a party to a deal by
which he might obtain newspaper
support for Governor.
This true Republican of the idea
type has refused to be coerced, ca
joled, coaXod or badgered into max.
ing any sort of a deal with any fac.
tlon or combination which would re.
suit in his going into office without
absolute freedom to he his own Gov.
ernor in his own way.
DR.. Brumbaugh's course in the
campaign, more clearly than anything
else, has stamped him as the sort OF
man that PENNSYLVANIA needs fol
Governor. He has passed from his
lips the cup that contained the bribe
of powerful support if he would agree
to do the bidding of the Flinn-Var
Nalkenburg clique, and stands before
the voters still pledged to do all that
is in his platform and unhampered by
secret or public promises to do the
