Only the Heart Used.

There is little difference apparent to the
layman in the juniper and the cedar.
either before they are cut or afterward
The pencil makers want only the red.
heart wood and are able to pay stunpase
prices for it that are prohibitive to any
other industry. One curious trade name
is "polecat wood" applied TO the sap
wood which is not used for pencils. This
is used to some extent for penholders. but
the demand is not near enough TO con-
sumo the supply. Consequently the vast
in pcncil-making is enormous. 1t reaches
20 per cent by the cubic foot and ~ PEE
cent by weight. There is practically NJ
use for the waste wood and the most OF
il is given away for fuel.
To get rid of the sap wood, many OF
the cedar logs are stored by the pencil
makers 40 the sap wood will rot oft This
Will be the case also when the manufac-
turers get to using the reservation jun
per, but the supply is now getting :"
limited that it is thought the inanufac-
turers will have TO cultivate some way
of curbng their wasteful methods.
Evening star., 1914-02-20
Using Old Fence Posts.

At present the cedar lumber yards are
fl ed with old cedar fence posts and
knotty cedar logs that few years ago
would not have been considered at all.
1t is not known how long even this make
shift supply will last. but it is regarded
as certain that many OF the mills will
have to shut down within a dozen years
for lack of materia'.
The forest products laboratory at Mad
ison, Wis, has been working for years
with all the woods that offered in hope of
finding a good pencil wood. Nearly every
one, of course. knows that pencil manu-
facturers use nothing but cedar. yet few
people realize why this is. 1t is based on
the low quality of the average mans PEN
knife. The pencil maker has to have a
wood that will whlttle easily without
either cracking and splitting or chewing
up into wooliy. fuzzy edge. OF course, a
good knife would cut almost any sort OF
wood, but what the pencil maker has to
look out for is the average mans knife
The juniper wood promises from the ex-
perments made to fill the requirement.

The proposed new Centre Market
and the scheme to double track Park
place and loop the south end OF NIL
itary Park were opposed last night
by the Clinton Hill Improvement As
ISOLATION. The meeting. which was
the regular monthly gathering, was
held III Berkeley Hall, Clinton ave-
nue. For the first time in the his
tory of the association a number OF
women were present.
The motion regarding the Centre
Market was put by DR.. William
Buerlnann. He remarked that the
preas OF last night limited that Mayor
Haussling had vetoed the ordinance
providing for the solicitation Of bios
fer the erection Of the market. II
that is true. said DR. Buermann, the
association should give the mayor a
vote OF thanks.
Considerable discussion followed
the motion to oppose the double
tracking of Park place and the
scheme 10 have a trolley loop around
the south end Of Military Park. The
danger 10 which human life would be
exposed and the possible congestion
of traffic We're the arguments used
against the scheme.

TWO SENTENCED
TOSTATE PRISON
Judge Osborne Also Imposes
Penalties on Several Other
Offenders.

OI tWenty-seVen Violators vi the
law who appeared before him for
sentence yesterday, Judge Harry Y.
Osborne sent two TO state prison;
five to the penitentiary, one to the
roformatoiy, 1ned one and placed the
other eighteen on probation.
One OF those sent to State prison at
Trenton was Mrs. Emma Tibbs, a ne
gress, of IS Arlington street. who was
charged with keeping a disorderly
house. The other was Toney, De La
fera, q youth arrested In BelleVille
sfter attempting to enter the home
OF priest.
Three times before yesterday Mrs.
Tibbs was sentenced TO prison, the
first time in 1906 on charge of lar
ceny, the second time in 1908 and the
third time in 1911 on charges similar
TO the one against her yesterday. In
1911 she was sent to state prison Tor
8 three-yeer term, her term expiring
last summer She was rearrested by
Plainelothesman Crowley last month
and pleaded guilty.
When the court announced her sem
tence as not less than one and a half.
nor more than three years, she broke
down and created a scene in the
courtroom.
De Lafera has served three and a
half years on a charge of breaking
and entering and because of his past
record he got a severe sentence yes
terday. He was arrested on Lake
street, Belleville November IL, tried
by a jury and found guilty, largely
on the fact that Jimmy" was found
in his possession after an attempt had
been made TO get into the house OF
Rev. Alessi Cataldo. The jimmy
fitted marks in the door of the house.
De Lefara's punishment was fixed at
not less than four years and eight
months, nor more than seven years.
The Ave lawbreakers sent to the
penitentiary We're: John Fitzmau-
rice, on two burglary charges, who
received one year: John Moore, on a
larceny charge, one year; Charles
Hoyt, disorderly conduct, six months;
Theodore Steffer, burglary, one year,
and William Tyler. burglary, six
months. The only offender sent to the
reformatory was Irving SilyerTnan, a
pickpocket.
Lou b. Kaufman, a real estate
operator, formerly president of the
Lake Hopatcong Land Company, was
fined $3.50 on a charge of selling a man
a lot which he had previously sold
someone else The fine was imposed
on condition that he make restitution.
Other charges are pending against
him in Sussex county, It is said.

TRANSFER PLAN
ISCENSURED BY
BOARD OF WORKS
Commissioner Gillen Character
ICES Present System as
Most Unsatisfactory

Commissioner Charles p. Gillen at
Yesterdays conference Of the Board
OF Works. characterized the present
trolley transfer system as the most
unsatisfactory proposition of its kind
ever submitted to the people of New
ark" He declared the scheme OF
dividing the city into zones robbed
The people of privileges they enjoyed
heretofore and added that the system
should be either abolished or changed
radically.
The conference was called for the
purpose OF taking action on the re-
port of Trolley Inspector Joseph
Crawford who has been investigat-
ing the transfer system. The matter
was put off for d week, within which
time Mr.. Crawford expects 10 have
an additional report to make.
During the conference President
Charles r. I<Taemer took occasion TO
remark that the trouble over the
transfer system would have 30 be adj
iusted before the board grants the
trolley company any franchises for
which application has been made.
John L. O'Toole. publicity agent of
the Public Service Corporation
represented the trolley company ut
the conference. He argued in favor
of the trolley transfer system. He
pointed out that the actual nunDer
of complaints with merit was COM
paratively small and declared that
no matter what change was made
there would be complaints from some
quarters.
A large part of the difficulty it de-
veloped was due TO unfamiliarity on
part OF the public with the operation
of the transfer system. The pos
sibility was then discussed of having
posters on cars. Mr.. O'Toole eX-
pressed doubt at the feasibility OF
this plan as the posters could hardly
be printed large enough TO be easily
read or read at all when car was
crowded.
As one of the examples that had |
given rise TO complaints Commission
er Biertuempfel cited that passengers
on a Kinney street car wishing to
transfer east had to go TO the Penn |
sylvania depot whereas heretofore |
they could do SO at Broad and Market |
streets. Mr. OToole replied that |
Broad and Market was never an Of
fetal transfer point for the line in |
but that the company had |
raised no objection.

A Message to Thin,
Weak, Scrawny Folks
An Easy Way to Gain 10 to 80 lbs. Of
Solid. Healthy. Permanent Flesh

Thin, nervous, undeveloped men
and women everywhere are 1heard TO
say, Il can't understand way L do
not get fat. I eat plenty of good
nourishing food" The reason is just
this: You cannot get fat, no matter
how much you eat, unless your di-
gestive organs assimilate the fat
making elements Of your food in
stead Of passing them out through
the body as waste
What is needed is 3 means Of gent
ly urging the assimilative functions
OF the stomach and intestines to abb
sorb the oils and fats and hand them
over to the blood, where they may
reach the starved, shrunken, run
! down tissues and build them up. The
| thin PERSONS body is like dry
sponge-eager and hungry for tho
fatty materials Of which il is being
deprived by the failure of the
alimentary canal to take them from
the food. The best way to overcome
this sinful waste of flesh building
elements and to stop the leakage Of
fats is to use Sargol the recently
discovered regenerative force that is
recommended so highly by physicians
here and abroad. Take a little Sar-
gol tablet with every meal and
notice how quickly your cheeks fill
out and rolls of firm. healthy flesh
are deposited over your body. cover
ing each bony angle and projecting
point. Good druggists have Sargol,
or can get ii from their wholesaler
and will refund your money if you
are not satisfied with the gain in
weight it produces as stated on the
guarantee in each package. It is
inexpensive, easy TO take and highly
efficient.
Cauticn:-While Sargol has pro-
duced remarkable results in over
coming nervous dyspepsia and gen.
eral stomach troubles, it should not
be taken unless you are willing to
gain ten pounds or more, for it is a
wonderful flesh builder. - Advertise
