At the same time, 1t must be re-

them. Within the last year Germany
has lost more than seventeen Zeppe-
Inns, all built at high cost. To balance
this there is little more achievement
on record than efficient scout service
and even this has been surpassed by
the scouting of the lighter, heeter
and less expensive aeroplane.
In theory a machine that can carry
forty men, two tons Of bombs and fly
1000 miles continuously ought to be a
deadly weapon. But the Zeppelin is
almost entirely prevented from day

WELDING PROCESS USED
EXTENSIVELY Y

The welding process is becoming
more and more popular every day.
Inc world is just beginning to realize
It's importance and its savings. Before
the welding process was established.
huge plants, employing hundreds, were
forced to shut down on account of
some important part of their machin-
cry breaking. BY the welding process
the biggest jobs can be done in a few
hours, whereas before the discovery
OF this process a broken piece of ma
chinery would sometimes take two or
even three weeks to be repaired.
The Harrisburg Welding and Braz-
ing Company, located at sS South
cameron street, is Harrisburg's pioneer
welding establishment and has gone a
long way toward advancing the weld
ing process in this city The most
skilled labor available is employed and
they uake speciality of welding de-
fective boilers, broken parts of ma
chtnery and all kinds of forged and
cast metals. All orders are given, very
prompt attention and every piece Of
work done by this concern is guaran-
teed. If vital part of your automo-
bile or machinery of any kind should
get broken, lose no time in calling
No. 455M on the Bell phone and a
skilled welder from the Harrisburg
Welding and Brazing Company will be
on the job in jiffy.

COMPANY MAKES BOYS WASH
SUITS AND ROMPERS

The Jennings Manufacturing Com
pany of this city who have for years
been manufacturing ladies' aprons
which have been sold from coast to
coast have added a new line to their
business; that of manufacturing boys
wash suits and rompers and this line
has already been very we'll received
all over the country.
The materials being used are the
very best that can be obtained, and
even with the scarcity of dyes, they
have been fortunate in obtaining all
fast colors.
With the wash suits their idea is to
see how good they can make them and
not how cheap, as they expect to build
up a reputation for Jennings wash
suits the same as they have for their
ladies aprons, however these gar
ments are most reasonable in price,
workmanship and quality considered,
and are sold in a popular range of
prices, namely, rs cents to $500 each.
These garments are all made in
Harrisburg and are sold by many diff
ferent Harrisburg dealers, among
them are Bowman's, Dives, Pomeroy
& Stewart, Kaufmans, William
Strouse and E. NJ. Sible Remember
the name next time; ask to be shown
the Jennings garments. In this way
you are boosting home industry as
we'll as getting the very best value for
your money.
The company is now planning a new
and entirely modern building, the
construction of which will soon be
under way.-Advertisement

LAUNDRY GOOD BAROMETER


One of the best barometers of the
quantity of business being done in
Harrisburg is the laundry. During the
last few months the hotels of this city
have been exceptionally busy and as a
result the laundry bills with several
concerns doing the work have been
large.
At the Royal Laundry plant, located
at 1884 Howard street, it was said that
the hotels have contributed more than
their share of work recently. Bedding,
towels, table linen and personal jobs
from the several hostelries not
equipped with private plants have
brought thousands of dollars increase
during the last several months.
At this season of the year more than
two tons of family wash is handled
every week. Only few years ago the
quantity was much smaller and the
variety of articles washed decidedly
less.
Improved methods of handling the
washing of bedding, heavy undergar-
ments etc, have proven to the house
keepers that the laundries are better
fitted to handle the work than are the
homes and their MOTTO be-depended-
upon washerwomen. The manner in
which the fiat work and the "all
ironed" wash is being sent back into
the homes each week has attracted the
attention of the women who have tried
it, with the result that the Royal Laun-
dry's wagons are being called to all
sections of the city.
If you have lot had your laundry
done the Royal Way" as yet, you
cannot imagine what you are missing
and the prices charged are the most
reasonable that could be imagined
Just phone for their wagon to call for
sample wash and that is all that will
be necessary to make you one of their
many satisfied customers

MOONSHINE COAL GAINS
IN POPULARITY

The people of Harrisburg and vicin-
lty are thinking more each day re-
garding the quality of the coal which
they are to fill up their bin or cellar
with for the coming winter and a
vast number of these people, yes, we
might say good percentage of them
nave decided that the Moonshine coal
was the kind that they wanted
There is very good reason for their
decision in this matter up until the
present time few people were aware
OF the fact that there was not much, If
any dlfference, between one dealers
coal and another. There is, in fact,
as much difference between Moon
shine coal and other kinds of coal as
there is between a ten-dollar mail
order suit of clothes and a fifty-dol-
lar suit made to your order by the
best tailor in the city.
The people of this city who have
gone so far as to investigate and try
out the different kinds of coal have
found that Moonshine coal stands the
same with the coal buying public as
moonshine whisky goes with people
VINO know what kind OF whisky that
is; Moonshine whisky Is the best and
purest whisky that money can buy
ana Moonshine coal is in every sense
OF the word in the same class the very
pest coal that money can buy.
If 1t happens that you are one of
the people who have never given the
matter a thought before, just phone
the John H. Gates Coal Company who
are located at Tenth street, below
Market, and have them send you a
ton of Moonshine coal and try it along
with the other kind that you have
peen using and see what a difference
there is; or better still stop into the
once of the Gates concern and have
them give you full information re-
gardlng the quality of this brand of
coal and you will actually be startled
at the difference.-Adv.

MIR. GABLE TELLS INTERESTING
STORY REGARDING PAINT

IT seems hardly necessary, perhaps,
in this age of enlightenment and
progress to discuss the relative merit
of hand made" or machine made"
prod"ct such as paint However,
H A. Gable who is located at 113 to
III South Second street and who
whclesales practically every thing
that is required in the building and
construction line, as we'll as being the
loca' distributor for the Acme White
Lead and Color Works of Detroit,
Mich, manufacturers of the famous
a sme Quality New Era paints and
Varnishes, states that back of the
machine made" which in itself
means not only economy on account
OF large production at the least cost,
Is tho perfection or grinding, the thor
oushness of mixture, uniformity of
tinting and all the advantages that
accrue from a perfectly adjusted or
| Ganization such as the Acme White
Lead and Color Works maintain, and
whose sole occupation is to make the
best paint that can be made. Back of
the machine made" paint of the
Acme company is the most modern
and up-to-date factory with chemi-
cal laboratories and chemists who are
constantly studying and experim
ing to produce better paints. The
hand made" paint combined in
crude and imperfect manner by hu-
man muscle and stick or paddle,
from materials, the chemical proper
ties of which are unknown, or guess
ed at, cannot possibly compare in re-
suits combined in accordance with
/ scientific knowledge that knows just
what and how much of each ingredi-
ent should be used to make each tint,
each shade and each color, and how
the white for various purposes must
be prepared and manipulated.
The painting contractors of Harris
! burg and vicinity are strong boosters
| of Acme paints and byproducts, and
in filling contracts for the decora-
ton of many new homes and bust
ness structures, they will use thou
coming season, a large portion Of
which has already been ordered from
Mr.. Gable.
Mr.. Gable states that In the sew
eral industrial buildings that have al
ready placed their paint orders with
him, large quantity of white lead,
containing such properties as tend to
reflect all the light possible, will be
uoed. Where concrete floors have been
laid. a special concrete paint will be
utilized to good advantage. Con-
siderable varnish and high grade stain
has been ordered for use in some of
the finest residence jobs.
We are told by Mr.. Gable that as
soon as the painting season gets in
full swing, the prices of paint are sure
to advance and for that reason he is
advising his customers and the pub
| lie in general to place their orders as
much in advance of the time when
needed as possible This will enable
him to buy at the present prices and
protect his buyers from any future
raises.-Adv.
