A Real Flesh Builder
For Thin People

WHO WOULD INCREASE WEIGHT
Thin men and women who would like
to increase their weight with 10 or 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 measure
yourself. Then take Sargol-one tab
let 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 tape measure will tell their
lowed these simple directions, report
weight increases of from five to eight
pounds with continued gains under
further treatment.
Sargol does not of itself make far
but mixing with your food its purpose
is to help the digestive organs turn the
fats, sugars and starches of what you
have eaten, into rich, ripe, fat produc-
ing nourishment for the tissues and
blood-prepare it in an easily assini-
lated form which the blood can readily
accept. A great deal of this nourish-
ment now passes from thin peoples
bodies as waste. Sargol is designed TO
stop the waste and make the fat pro-
you are eating now develop pounds and
pounds of healthy flesh between your
skin and bones. Sargol is noninjuri-
Gus. pleasant, efficient and inexpen-
sive. George A. Gorgas and other lead
ing druggists are authorized to sell it
in large boXes-forty tablets to a pack
age-on a guarantee of weight increase
or money back a. found in every pack

CHEMICAL INDUSTRY
To Be INVESTIGATED
Every Phase of Present Situation
Will Be Taken Up by Com
merce Department

New York, Aug. 31.-Not only the
dystuff situation but every phase of
the chemical industry will be taken up
by the agents OF the Department of
Commerce sent here by Secretary
Redfeld to investigate conditions in
those trades caused by the war. DR..
Thomas H. Norton, the chief investi-
gator who began work here to-day.
said;
We are anxious to see how we can
utilize the coal industry, in which we
are now wasting products worth
500, 100000.
Germany utilizes every ounce of
coal by-products but only 16 per cent.
OF our coke furnaces are equipped for
reclalmlng coal tar products. Only
teW are actually recovering benzol
naphtha-cline and carbolic acid, which
are the bases of most of the coal tar
products. Unfortunately benzol and
carpolc acid are used largely in ex-
ploslVes, with the result that these
products are mostly taken up by the
ammunition factories
The potash problem is large. We
import annually from Germany s15.-
100000 worth of potash, while off the
coast there are supplies of kelp which
are believed to have a value of $780,
at our door enough potash to meet
the demands of the world and to sup
ply the needs of our crops, tobacco,
grain and other produce, in the way
of fertilizer. We have always been
dependent on Germany for potash.
Photographic chemicals are now
vanishing
1--WE don't want to get caught in
such O plight again and the Depart
ment of Commerce wants to stimulate
American development so we can sup
ply our own demands and then branch
out into the worlds trade in
chemicals.
After this investigation is conclud-
ed" said DR.. Norton, I'VE will be in
a position to determine what can be
done to relieve immediate necessities,
although 1 am firmly of the belief that
strong domestic dyestuff industry
can be built up eventually"

New Transportation System to Be
Installed With Motor Capable

Part of the new mills of the Penn

dreds of feet of electrical track and a
locomotive capable of moving 1000

The new system is claimed to be one
of the safest ever devised. While the
locomotive is operated by electricity
there is no third rail or overhead ex-
posed wires. The contacts are made
by blocks which automatically become
dead after they touch the locomotive.
Directors of the Simplex Company
held meeting at Harrisburg to-day
and discussed methods of establish
ing more facilities for handling the
different materials. The principal
office of the company Is there and it's

IDENTIFY "HATCHET
F|EVD" BY SNEAKERS
SteeIton Police Now Confident
They Have Man Who At
tackled Seven Women

A web of circumstantial evidence
woven around E. N. Haines by the
Steelton police to-day leaves little
doubt. the authorities declare, that
Heines is the mysterious "hatchet
fiend" who brutally assaulted seven
Steelton women with an axe and ter
rorized the whole borough for months.
Haines is now in the Harrisburg
Hospital, straightjacketed and under
strict surveillance. He was arrested
last Friday by Patrolman Booser, of
the Philadelphia and Reading police,
who was compelled to shoot the negro
In the right leg to prevent his escape.
Late yesterday afternoon Chief OF
Police II. 2. Longnaker and Constable
John Glib brought Albina kozjan,
the 12-year- daughter of Mrs. Bar
bara Kozjan, of 13 Cumbler's Row,
to the hospital. She Immediately
identified Haines as the negro whom
she had seen spring from her bed
room window the night of July 0 after
robbing the house.
On this same night the homes of
Marko Mavretic. 500 South Second
street, and Matthias Starasinic, "a
South Second street, were robbed. A
short time after Haines was seen by
the Kozjan girl a strange negro was
seen near the scene of the robberies
by Patrolman James Pearson, a col
ored officer, who reported the strang-
er's presence to Chief Longnaker.
This negro's description tallies with
the description of Haines.
The Sneaker" Tracks
The chain of evidence against Haines
is strengthened by the fact that at
each of the places where women were
assaulted by the 'hatchet fiend" prints
OF a peculiarly marked rubber-soled
shoe, or sneaker" were found.
Haines, according to the Kozjan girl,
wore such shoes.
When Chief of Police Longnaker
visited Haines at the hospital yester-
day the negro admitted that he had
frequently been in Steelton. He de-
clared. however, that his home is in
Harrisburg. His name is not listed in
any directory. The Steelton police did
not make any effort to question Haines
further on account of his mental con-
dition. 1t is necessary to keep him
aightjacketed all the time and it is
probable that he will later be COM
mitted to an asylum.

by the high school chorus followed
and ELECTED hearty applause.
B. f. Campbell was the first
speaker and gave a summary of the
financial condition of the school dis
trict which is printed in full in an
other column. Superintendent Ellis
discussed the Duties of a School
Superintendent" and stressed the
heavy responsibility and numerous
and varied problems of the position.

large proportion of boys and girls
do not go on any further with school
work.

pupils are now given practical prob
lens pertaining to every day bust
ness to solve instead of abstract
problems.
Elmer Brickner, principal OF the

methods of the commercial depart
ment; Mr.. Letson told of the work
and needs of the manual training de-
partment and G, r. Kerns, explained
