No More Weak Kidneys,
BaC<aCI7e, Rheumatism
New Specific Soon to be Brought town. Says Letter.

Dear Mr.. Editor:-Just lately, am
told and beg to inform your readers.
that the famous DR.. Pierce, of whose
medicines and Surgical Institution in
Buffalo, New York, we have heard for
years, has added to his popularity by
asserting to put before the American
people, 'An-Uric." This prescription
is adapted especially for kidney COM
plants and diseases arising from dis
orders of the kidneys and bladder,
such as backache, weak back, rheu-
matism, dropsy, congestion of the
kidneys, Inflammation of the blad-
der, scalding urine and urinary trou-
bles. The physicians and specialists
at DR.. Pierce's great Institution have
thoroughly tested this prescription
and have been with one accord sue
cessful in eradicating these troubles,
and in most cases absolutely curing
the diseased kidneys
Patients having once used "An-
Uric" at the Institution have repeat
edly sent back for more. Such a de-
mand has been created that Doctor
Pierce has decided to put '''An-Uric"

JONES PUT BACK ON
FORCE BY BURGESS
Borough Solicitor Hands Down
Opinion on Case Which Has
Created Much Excitement

off duty since June 26, Clinton Jones
will resume his position as a member
of Steelton's police force this eve
ming.
Following an opinion from Frank
b. WiclSersham, borough solicitor, on
the legality of councils action REIN
stating the officer July IL, Burgess
Fred Wigfield to-day ordered that the
patrolman be reassigned to his former
beat.
The officer resigned his position
automatically by remaining off duty
thirteen days without permission from
council. At the subsequent meeting
of council he was reinstated by a 4
to 3 vote with Mr.. Harlan not voting
Following this action some of the
councilmen took the stand that the re-
instatement had not been made in
regular form, and requested Burgess
Wigfeld to again suspend the officer.
Instead of taking this action, how
ever, the burgess laid the facts be-
fore the borough solicitor and asked
his legal opinion. In this opinion
Solicitor Wickersham said in part:
In reply 1 beg to state that you
raise two important questions:
First: Can a member of the
borough council by declining to vote,
defeat the action of the majority OF
those present and voting, and,
Second: There being eight coun-
cilmen present, four voting in the
affirmative and three in the negative,
and one not voting, was the motion to
reinstate the patrolman carried by a
majority vote"
In answering these questions the
solicitor quoted a number of legisla-
tive acts, councilmanic rules and
Cushing's Manual Summing up he
said: and therefore, / conclude the
motion was properly carried and the
officer properly reinstated."
Referring to Mr.. Harlan's failure to
vote, the opinion quoted a ruling of
the Superior Court and said, "It is the
duty of a member present to vote. and
his presence alone is enough to make
the vote decisive and binding whether
he actually votes or not"
In summing up the borough solicit
tor said: I'VE are naturally led to the
conclusion that no fault can be found
with the action of the borough council
taken to reinstate officer Jones. and
the majority OF those present and vot-
ing, having voted in the affirmative.
we believe he has been regularly and
legally reinstated."
When asked what action he would
take following his receipt of the
Solicitors opinion, Burgess Wigfield
showed a reluctance to talk.
This has been an unpleasant mix
up" declared he, ''I have tried to en-
force discipline on the force but / can
go no further than councils ordinance
permits me. The officer broke coun-
ellis ordinance, not any ruling of mine,
and il council chooses to reinstate
him why all right, I have done my
duty"

New Market Man Dies
Suddenly at His Home

New Cumberland, Pa, July 21.-A
man named Cramer, living alone at
New Market, died at his home very
suddenly this morning. Harry Baker,
a salesman for Buttorff & Straley, of
New Cumberland, was passing the

send a physician to him. On his re-
turn to New Cumberland he notified
DIR. H. w. Linebaugh, who innme-
diately went to the Cramer home, but
when he arrived there the man was
dead. Mr.. Cramer was about so years
old and has son who visited the
father a short time ago, but 1t is not

chief of police says that about five
thousand men were engaged in the at

killed. Fifty persons were taken to
the Bayonne hospital suffering from
injuries. The injuries included both
rioters and police.
No Additions to Ranks
There were no additions to the strik-
ers' ranks to-day. The men employed
at the Tidewater Oil Company's plant,
which adjoins the plant of the Stand
ard, were expected by the strikers to
join them. Instead all hands went to
work.
Whether the strikers had been mis-
led in this matter is uncertain but the
sight of the Tidewater starting up for
the day seemed to anger the crowd
which had gathered and 1t began, ii
is stated, an attack on the Standard
plant.
Outside the inner guard drawn
about the plant were the uniformed
police of Bayonne. 1t was part of this
force, under personal command of

Some people have very queer ideas as
to how to build up their home town,
and If all were like them there would
soon be no town to build up; grass
would grow in the streets and mer-
chants could turn the key in their doors
and go fishing. One Of the worst ex-
amples of the habit in aiding out-of-
town business people at the expense OF
the home merchant was related to US a
day or two ago by a well-known con-
tractor.
Solicitors for a new church approach

donation of paint for the printing coat
of the building. The dealer by way of
answer, asked where they were going

he gave them the paint for the first.
