noon at the rooms or Mrs. StraCCon
in the hotel, where l met a number OF
women that l liked very much.
Some of the women had been mar
ried a number of years, had n or
two children and we're keeping house.
Others were boarding in the hotel
and every one of them was doing
something of some account.
One of the women vas in charge
of the cooking department of n of
the daily papers. She told me she had
tested every receipt she put out in
the little apartment which she kept
almost on purpose to do her cooking
stunts in.
Another woman, who lives at the
hotel, was writing stories; and still
another had formed a French con-
~versation class.
And what did these women talk
about?" you ask, little book.
You will be surprised, l know, when
l tell you they talked almost exclu-
siveIy of husbands and children.
These are the most vital things in
the world to wives and if we may not
talk about those we love best in the
world and discuss with each other
ways to further their happiness we
are getting away from the vital part
of life.
The modern woman is at heart
more domestic than she seems and
the subject of her husband is perhaps |
more fascinating than the study of
Henry James novels or Rostand's
poetry. At social affairs she would
rather tell a good joke on her hus-
band than about someone's trip to
Oberammergau and the other women
like betterto hear it.

ical women who think they must not
talk about what should interest them

Do You Need Building Up?

There are conditions of i'll health in
which no one particular organ appears
tc be at fault. yet the patien is miser-
able and unable to pursue the activi-
ties of daily life with vigor and enjoy
ment. Sometimes tho cause is attribu-
ted to the imagination but the patient
knows that the debility is real.
The remedy evidently is a medicine
that will bereflt the whole system
rather than part. TEe blood reaches
everywhere and an imp 5vement in it's
c1ality is quickly followed by an i'm
provement in the whole organism. Dr.
williams Pink Pills make a visible
Improvement in the condition of the
blood. The microscope will verify this
Improvement but the patient can see
1t in the mirror as shown by increased
color in cheeks and lips and added
brightness of the eyes There will also
be a new elasticity in the step. These
things record an improved tone in the
body and If this tonic treatment is
persisted in for a reasonable length
of time, depending upon the degree of
debility, the condition of i'll health will
be removed.
Those who are interested I, ay obtain
the pamphlet Building Up the Blood"
free on request from the DR.. Williams
Medicine Co., Schenectady, N. Y. All
druggists sell DR.. Williams Pink lis.

HAIL RUINS FRUIT
IN FRANKLIN COUNTY
Thousands of Bushels of Peaches
and Apples Cut From Trees
by Fierce Storm
Special to The Telegraph

Waynesboro. Pa, Aug. 25.-Thou-
sands of dollars damage was done to
the fruit crop in southern Franklin
county during the severe hailstorm
that swept over an area one-half mile
wide and travelled in a southeasterly
direction Friday evening.
Hailstones as large as hickory nuts
fell and the peach orchards of Joseph
H. Ledy. Ledy's Station, and d. Mau-
rice Wertz, Quicy and Mont Alto. were
practically ruined.
Mr.. Ledy had 10000 bushels of
early peaches damaged in his or
chards alone and has advertised the
fruit for sale at half price. The hail
stones stripped the trees of their
foliage and cut Sits itno the ripe fruit
and hundreds of bushels of peaches
that had not reached maturity. He
will also lose several hundred bushels
of apples that were cut to pieces and
knocked off the trees.
D. NJ. Wertz had between two and
five thousand bushels of peaches de-
stroyed and almost the same quantity
of apples.
At New Franklin the hailstorm was
more severe and ruined practically all
the peaches and apples belonging to
growers in that section. Corn was hit
hard and the blades were cut into
shreds.
Several hundred persons that were
employed in the local shops in
Waynesboro and who were laid off on
account of the war affecting foreign
orders left for the large peach or
chards in this section, where they have
been promised work picking fruit.

Stomach Troubles
Due to Acidity
so SAYS EMINENT SPECIALIST

So-called stomach troubles. such as
Indigestion, wind, and stomach ache
are in probably nine cases out of ten
simply evidence that fermentation is
taking place in the food contents of the
stomach, causing the formation of gas
and acids. Wind distends the stomach,
and causes that full, oppressive feeling
sometimes known as heartburn, while
the acid irritates and inftames the deli
cate lining of the stomach The trouble
lies entirely in the fermenting food.
Such fermentation is unnatural, and
acid formation is not only unnatural,
hut may involve most serious conse-
auences If not corrected. To stop or
prevent fermentation of the food con-
tents of the stomach and to .neutralize
the acid, and render 1t bland and
harmless, a teaspoonful of bisurated
magnesia, probably the best and most
effective corrector of acid stomach
known, should be taken in a quarter of
a glass of hot or cold water immedi-
ately after eating, or whenever wind
or acidity is felt. This stops the fer
mentation. and neutraliZes the acidity
in a few moments. Fermentation, wind
and acidity are dangerous and unnec-
essary. Stop or prevent them by the
use Of a proper am cid. such as bisur-
ated magnesia, which can be obtained
from any druggist and thus enable the
stomach to do its work properly with
out being hindered by poison us -as
and dangerous acids.-M. f. P.-Ad-
yertisement.

DEMOCRATIC TARIFF
AFFECTS CARLISLE
New Law Causes interviewer Mills
Company to Abandon Build
ing Project
SITE HAD BEEN PURCHASED
Guarantee Fund of $4,000 Is
Raised by Businessmen
of Town
SITE HAD BEEN PURCHASED

Carlisle, Pa, Aug. rs. - Following
negotiations extending over about fif-
Teen months, it was announced to-day
that the interviewer Mills Company,
dnc., makers of the interviewer ho-
6iery, has definitely abandoned all
Thought of building a 100000 branch
plant here. This decision is, in the
opinion of men intimately connected
with the proposition to have the plant
located here, directly ascribable to the
new Democratic tariff.
On Saturday II. II. Emmet, treas
nrer, and George Mulhiss, superin-
tendent of the company, were here.
and in conference with members of
the Carlisle Industrial League, an or
iganization of merchants formed to
secure additional industries for the
town. To-day the announcement was
made that the plant will not be es-
tablished here or at any other point
at present.
Members of the league and other
Fcitizens of the town who have con-
Itributed funds to secure a site will be
reimburs by the interviewer Com
ypany, but the industry which would
Eventually employ over 500 persons is
host.
The headquarters of the company,
are in Martinsburg, w. Va. over a year
ago, before the effects of the new
tariff were manifested, an increase in
business brought on the decision to
build a new branch plant. Carlisle,
together with other valley towns,
among which was Lemoyne, made
proposals for the location of the plant
in the various communities. The In
'dustrial League was formed at this
time and a guarantee fund of $4,000
was raised to bring sufficient opera
tives for the proposed plant to the
town. Some little trouble was eXpe-
rienced relative to a site, but after
the Bell and Cumberland Valley trunk
lines had been moved after some dis
cussion and at considerable expense,
the site was accepted by the president
of the company and purchased by the
league.
That the company did intend to To-
cate here was evinced from the fact
that in a recent issue of the trade
journal, Steam, proposals for the erec-
ton of a daylight plant here were
asked. 1t was said by the officials
that one reason for not building was
the inability to secure help. This
statement men in touch with the sit
uation, who conducted a canvass for
this express purpose, as we'll as sew
eral prominent manufacturers, deny.
The interviewer officials say they do
not contemplate erecting a branch at
any other place. This leads the local
league members here to believe that
the tariff law has interfered with the
plans for the erecting of branch. A
small training" plant run by the
company here, employing about 100
persons, will also be put out of OPERA
ton.
