Three Cases Offered For Consideration TO-DAY
Rheumatism Cured; Stomach Trouble Inn

John Holtz. of South Front street,
had rheumatism in his ankles, knees,
arms and shoulders. Last year he
spent over 5000 in special efforts to be
cured, but he only grew worse. About
five weeks ago he called at Forney's
drug store and obtained a treatment
of Quaker Extract and Oil of Balm.
He again called and in the presence of
a crowd of people he said: 81 do not
need any more of your Quaker Rene
dies, because one treatment of them
has cured me. l have not had a rheu-
matte pain for over ten days, so
know I am cured"

READING GETTING
awake TO ITS NEEDS
Experts Have Recommended Ger
tain Things to Be Done in
the Berks Metropolis

Through the Chamber of Commerce
of that city. Reading has been given
an investigation as to it's municipal
needs by the municipal research ex-
perts, as was done here in 1901, and
the following suggestions are made in
their report
The department of streets and
public improvements should be or
ganized with four bureaus.
| Reading streets are inadequately
paved and pavements are in poor con-
dition. Water-bound macadam is
used in most cases. 1t should be BIZ
| luminous macadam.
The street railways have not prop
erly maintained their paving, nor
have the authorities made good this
deficiency at the expense of the COM
pany as is provided in the franchise.
A working fund should be established
| to make it possible for the city to en-
| force it's right.
| The type of pavement to be laid
| in any street should be determined
by council, not upon petition of citi-
zens.
According to the present method
| of street sprinkling the streets are
over-f1uShed. This is a service which
should be under the control of the
department of streets.
A comprehensive paving program
should be adopted outlining plans for
years.
Sidewalk conditions are below ac-
cepted standards, due partly to neg
lect of property owners and to the
| use of surface gutter drains.
The inspection staff is inadequate
and poorly trained.
| Inspectors should be appointed
! solely for reasons of technical ability,
and they should receive sufficient COM
pensation to attract and keep high
grade men.
The city should abandon the con-
tract system and clean its own
| streets.
Members of the street cleaning force
should be required to wear uniforms.
| The city should abandon the pres
ent practice of collecting and reduc-
| ton of household waste. The collec-
tion and incineration should be done
with it's own plant.
Overhead wires should be placed
underground.
One building inspector is not
enough.
An adequate building code should
| be adopted.
