WORRY IS A DISEASE

The disorder which causes its victims
to worry whether they have anything
to worry about or not is neurastheuia.
Neurasthenia is entirely distinct from
hysteria although the patient may have
both diseases at the same time.
Neurasthenia often results from some
nervous shock, such as the loss of q
near relative, business reverses, or some
severe overstrain on the nervous sys-
TEN. The patient is usually pale, show
ing that the blood is thin, and the first
thing to do is to build up the blood be-
cause anything that builds I'D the gen.
cral health helps to correct the neu-
rasthenic condition. Rest and good
tonic is the very best treatment in most
cases.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are an ideal
tonic for this condition because they
are non-alcholic and neurasthenic patti
epts should avoid alcoholic stimulants.
The DR.. Williams Medicine Company,
Schenectady, N. Y, has published a
little book on nervous disorders that
contains chapter on neurasthenia, in
which the symptoms are fully described
and the correct treatment given. The
booklet is free on request.
DR.. williams Pink Pills are sold bv
your own druggist or will be- sent by
mail, postpaid, on receipt of. price, so

in steel works and told how his COM

as it relates to the electric companies
was set forth in paper by Joseph B.

We Methodist Men, assembled
in State convention in the city of
Harrisburg, representing more
than 100000 Methodists, many of
whom are voters and not one of
whom is without influence, realize
that crisis In the political, the
social and the religious history of
the State Is at hand. Events past
and the approach of an inevitable
conflict between the forces of
righteousness and the champions
of evil impress us with vivid
sense of our obligations to God
and our neighbors.
Therefore, We place ourselves
upon record as firmly advocating
the principle of prohibition for
the State and nation. We urge
Senate and Representatives at
Washington to support, by voice
and vote, the proposed constitu-
tional amendment forever abol-
ishing the manufacture and sale
of intoxicants within the jurisdic-
ton of the United States.
In the meantime, we cordially
approve the strenuous efforts of
Governor Martin G. Brumbaugh
to secure the enactment of the
county local option law.
We solemnly declare our alb
horrence of the cowardice or the
selflshness which makes 1t pos
sible for the brewers and distillers
and the retailers of Intoxicating
liquors to dictate party candidates
and party policies in this imperial
Commonwealth and, in the fear
fNIl
men, we recognize allegiance to
no political party which places
the interests of the brewery, the
distillery and the saloon above
the welfare of humanity and the
best interests of the State. Here
we stand, we cannot do other
wise.

Berlin, Nov. %, via London).-It is
reported with increasing probability
that Gottlieb Won Jagow, the minis
ter Of foreign affairs, may be appointed
AMBASSADOR to Vienna to succeed the
late Count Won Tschirschky. The pos
sibility has been discussed in diplo-
matte circles ever since the death of
Tschirschky. particularly because it is
known that Won Jagow accepted his
ministerial post reluctantly and never
intended to hold it permanently. The
Tageblatt give prominence to this re-
port and declares that Chancellor Won
Bethmann-Ho Hollweg's visit to army
headquarters is connected with filling
the Vienna position.

DRINK HOT TEA
FOR A BAD COLD

Get small package of Hamburg
Breast Tea, or as the German folks
any pharmacy. Take a tablespoonful
of the tea. put cup of boiling water
upon it, pour through a sieve and
drink teacup full at any time. It
is the most effective way to break a.
cold and cure grip, as it opens the
pores, relieving congestion. Also
loosens the bowels, thus breaking a
cold at once.
1t is inexpensive and entirely vege-
table, therefore harmless.

But, listen a minute, you people below,
You who work on an eight-hour shift,
How could expect old fellow like me to be swift?
Think how work through the day and the night
Whether it's dark. or whether it's light;
And never a ncke-a measly half dime
Is paid to me fer my overtime.

A.-SOmewhere there is a

he has wOOed and won a pure girl
for wife. Is he SO much better
than the girl he betrayed? Con-
ventionality says "yes"; but in

guilty as she.
What you ought to do, all de-
ponds upon whether or not you
consider the girl an outcast. II
you do not love and respect her
enough to forever refrain from
bringing up her past, you would

swer very important ques-
ton for me? l am married
and have been for nearly
five years. My husband was
not divorced six months
when we were married. Do
you think ii is legal or should
we have the marriage per-
formed again? My husband
says it is not necessary, but
1 say 1t is. Please print this
as soon as possible.
A.-This question has been
answered SO many times I'm all its
various phases through these
columns that IL would seem
scarcely necessary to repeat it.
Under no circumstances whatever
Is marriage ceremony legal
when performed any time during
the six months period which
must elapst between a divorce
and re-marriage. When in
doubt about this law q synopsis Of

suited free of charge.
Q.-Kindly state how the
term "cocade" as applied to
the badge worn in soldiers
hat originated. L. T. M.
A.-This word Is borrowed
from the French word "cocarde,"
and was originally applied to the
plume of cocks feathers worn by
Gratian soldiers serving in the
French army.
