Gross Earnings Increase;
Welcome News to P. R. R.

For the first time in many months
the Pennsylvania Railroad system in
its May report shows an increase in it's
gross earnings over the corresponding
month last year. In figures the in
crease is $5S,S79, a splendid compari-
son with the month of April, which
showed a decrease of S340,737 from
the same period in 1914. The increase
May was due to the traffic carried on
the lines west of Pittsburgh. This part
of the road showed an increase of
SEA 4,430, offsetting a loss on the lines
east of S11.551.

This is the scene of the land bat
ties for possession of the Gallipoli
Peninsula between the Turks on one
side and the allies on the other, back
ed up by 100 warships. The allies
sometime ago landed troops on the
Asiatic side of the Dardanelles under
the command of General D'Amade.
The Turks now claim he has been
driven off. At least their reports
positively state there is no allied
force on the Asiatic side. But Cen
eral Hamilton landed just the other
day on the peninsula and the heavy
fighting has been at Gaba Tepe some
ten miles north of the point of the
peninsula. The Turks claim to have
driven most of the troops back, but
their story has been discredited. 1t
is believed that General Hamilton has
many men and is fighting his way
north.
1t is his purpose to attack the forts,
which the battleships have been un-
able to batter down, from the rear.
He believes he can overpower the
garrisops and thus clear the way to
Constantinople.

A NON-ALCOHOLIC TONIC

Many people need tonic at this
time of year, old folks, weak folks,
thin people, people who are run down
from too much work-and vacation
still many weeks away. Nervous peo-
pie also need tonic but cannot safely
take alcohol.
A non-alcoholic tonic that will build
up the blood and strengthen the
nerves is what most people need and
DR. Williams Pink Pills are exactly
that.
The one symptom of thin blood that
everybody recognizes is pallor. 1t
shows so gradually that other people
are liable to notice it 'before you do.
But it is important that you should
notice and heed the warning because
the thin blood that causes the pallor
betrays some drain on the body or
some poisoning by its own waste ma
terias that, il not corrected, will re-
suit in physical breakdown and i'll
health.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills not only
build up the blood but they have a
direct strengthening action on the
nerves. AS they are free from mar
cotics and any harmful or poisonous
drugs they are safe for every men,

LOVE STANDS OUT
AS SUN Of LIFE
Friendship Is the Bright Star,
Declares Ella Wheeler
Wilcox
BY ELLA WHEELER WILCOX

Copyright, 1915, by Star Company
Love stands alone in the solar sys-
tenn of the affections like the sun,
minated and Incompatible. From it
all other emotions derive their worth
yet they must not expect to initiate its
light, warmth or power.
Our friendships are the stars next
in magnitude to the orb of light
There can be but one true love, as
there is but one sun visible to the
earth. But there may be as many or
ders of friendship as there are varie-
ties of stars in the armament. though
rev. TO be sure of the first magnitude
a great nature can enjoy and be
loyal to great number of friends
IL is Tune to do away with that old
iued' ground IN human selhshness
sn snat a man should have but one
Irlend Study the persons who are
fond of proclaiming, II care but for
lew people, and you will find them
at the core selfish, narrow and nm
sympathetic. The broad -gauged and
noble-hearted man goes out spon-
taneously to his fellow beings and
gives affection and loyalty to manv
lie attracts as many true friends as
his varied characteristics render him
capable of enjoying.
You appeal to his intellect and are
a mental comrade. In the association
ne grows fond of you and Interested
IN your personal life, but YOU cannot
expect him, to shut out from his heart
another who amuses and entertains
MIN with a flow of cheerful spirits
winch you lack. You show no evil
dence OF aTection if you are jealous
OF this other friend. You simply show
narrow mindedness grounded in
self-love. You have your own sphere
IN that mans life and cannot he
crowded by another any more than
one star crowds another in the
heavens.
The moment my friend says to
me, Il must be first in your affec-
ton, no matter what other claimants
for your regard come Knocking ar
your door," [ reply:
My friend, it is yourself you love,
not me; the absolute friend asks only

Jolce to see me enriched by other
friends. 1t is yourself you love, and
you desire me to add fuel to the flame
which is already consuming you. But
| can only bestow what you inspire.
Look to it that you inspire the best
within me and it will be yours"
With each new friend our capabili-
ties of affection increase.
Love is to the human heart what
the Koran is to the Mohammedan, or
the Bible to the Christian. There can
be but one. But we may have as
many choice friends as we have
choice books in our library, if our
heart wealth is great enough to pro-
cure them. | need not appreciate

Distrust any act of kindness shown
you by such a friend. 1t is done, not
to give you happiness, but to win your
gratitude. The real friend never
thinks of gratitude, though he would

would as soon bestow a favor un-
known to you, and he rejoices to see
you benefited by others, and takes
pleasure in anything which helps yod
no matter how remote it may be from
his own interests.
Old friends endeared by years of

ing, I can excuse him for being the
last, if he is the first to warn me when
| am doing wrong. He is no friend if
he sees me drifting toward the rocks
and does not tell me so; if he sees me
preparing for the battle with a flaw in
my armor, and does not point it out
to me before the fray begins.
If he has not discovered it until we
are in the thick of battle, then the
true and wise friend will keep silent,
lest the sudden consciousness of my
weak point should unnerve me; but
he will keep his own eye upon it, and
if the flaw proves my failure.
l do not want my friend to feed
and clothe me- for that would ener

self-relance. / do not want him to

chide me for my id!cness, and spur
me to achieve results with my own
powers.
