Thin People
Can Increase Weight

Thin men and women who would like
10 increase their weight with 10 to Is
pounds of healthy stay there" fat
should try eating a little Sargol with
their meals for a while and note re-
suits. Here is a good test worth try
ing. First weigh yourself and meas
ure yourself Then take Sargol-one
tablet with every meal-for two weeks
Then weigh and measure again. 1t isn't
a question of how you look or feel or
what your friends say and think The
scales and the tape measure will tell
their own story, and most any thin man
or woman can easily add from five to
eight pounds in the first fourteen days
by following this simple direction. And
best of all. the new flesh stays put
Sargol does not of itself make fat
but mixing with your food it turns tho
fats, sugars and starches of what Won
have eaten, into rich, ripe fat produc-
ing nourishment for the tissues and
blood = prepares it in an easily ASST
inflated form which the blood can read
lily accept. All this nourishment now
passes from your body as waste. But
Sargol stops the waste and does il
quickly and makes the fat producing
contents of the very same meals YOU
are eating now develop pounds and
pounds of healthy flesh between your
skin and bones. Sargol is safe, pleas
ant, efficient and inexpensive. Geo A.

Wants Congress to
Change Its Time of
Meeting by Amendment

Washington, d. c. Jan. 27.-Sen-
ator Shafroth, of Colorado, is pressing
the Senate judiciary committee for
favorable action on his resolution to
amend the Constitution so as to make
the date of the convening of Congress
the first Monday in January following
the election instead of March 4, and
to have the term of the President be-
gin the third Monday in January in
stead of March 4. In a statement pre-
sented to the committee the senator
asserted that the proposed change in
the date of the opening of Congress
would prevent such a situation as
arose in the Hayes-Tilden controversy
in 1876 by making it impossible that
a House composed in part of members
who had not been reelected should
decide the election of a President.
Under his plan the newly elected rep
resentatives would settle such an issue.
Other arguments made by Senator
Shafroth in favor of his amendment
were that it would abolish the short
session: members would come fresh
from their campaigns to Congress be-
fore they had time to forget their
pledges to the people, and legislation
by men who had failed of election
would be elimited

CLEAR HARDSCRABBLE
BY CHANGING STREET
LEAGUE SUGGESTION
Municipal League Proposes That
Front Street Be Run Through
Settlement

Proceedings incident to the straight
ening of Front street from Herr to
Calder were suggested to City Council
this afternoon as the most feasible
plan for the elimination of Hard
scrabble
The suggestion was offered by a
committee of the Municipal League
and is similar to the scheme embodied
in the "Hardscrabble" ordinance of
several years ago, which died in the
lower branch of Councils.
"Hardscrabble'' is the district lying
west of Front street between Calder
and Herr. The section of Front street
upon which 1t faces has never been
formally opened. BY Strengthening
the highway to conform with the city
through the houses in the section in
question.
Following the adoption of an ordi-
nance formally opening the street, the
city could then apply to the Dauphin
County Court for the appointment of
viewers to assess damages and benefits
that would arise from the suggested
improvement.
The damages the city would be
liable for would probably run into
some thousands of dollars.
The matter was discussed before
Council by Ross a Hickok, ex-Com-
mon Councilman, who fathered the
original "Hardscrabble" ordinance.
In addition to the discussion of the
"Hardscrabble' matter, the extension
of the park system, the building of the
public comfort station and some of
the other matters generally covered
by the new improvement loans were
referred to by members of the league.
Nhn at 9,
meeting of the executive committee to
the league held shortly after noon.
Among the members of the league
present were the following:
Ross A. Hickok, Vance c. McCor-
mick. J.. Horace Mcfarland, Herman
P. Miller, William Jennings, ]. Aus
tin Brandt and James NJ. Lamberton.
