conditions in Pennsylvania. He said
in part:
"Whatever the reason. the men who
are here to-day feel very glad because
all reports are to the effect that all in
dustries are working to the top notch.
We don't manufacture, but we are in
touch with those who do and we find
an optimistic air about the Industrial
field all over Pennsylvania"

our sheriff in confiscating a
truck-load of booze, and taking
no steps to catch the parties who
were illegally shipping it in.
l agree with every word you
said. But l would like to call
attention to the action of anoth-

Just a few weeks ago the
the Northern Pacific r. r. Co.

attorney, that there was a car
load of booze on the way to
Wilkeson.
Mr.. Remain Immediately sent
out two bright and active county
detectives, who, after some I'd
ventures, succeeded in locating
Wilkeson and stumbled on the
carload of whisky.
The booze was concealed be-
meath lunches of luscious Car

Our county detectives gener-
ously distributed the cranes
among the good people Of Wilke-

1t is commonly called the Budget Bill
and is the most complete law ever passed on
the subject of raising and spending the pub
lie funds of counties, cities, towns, school,
port, and park districts.
Remember that 90 per cent, or $4,000 out
Of every $4,000 paid in taxes, will be raised
md expended under the provisions of this
measure.
The Budget Measure had the remarkable
history Of being passed by the Senate with
svery vote for it. It passed the House with
but one vote against it. Governor Lister
igned the measure without hesitation.
IT WAS THE ONLY IMPORTANT
MEASURE PASSED BY THE LEGISLA-
rURE UPON WHICH ALL FACTIONS

hand in spending the public money made

The Constitution makes every voter
DUN matters.
Some cunning opponents of the refer
endum measures have started the slo-
gan. eff in doubt about a referendum
measure, either vote No or do not
vote at ALL"
Referendum Measure No. o, the Bud
get eNIasure, is the exception, whatever
the view taken.
1t covers technical and complicated
questions of local government which
cannot be understood except by an
elaborate explanation by experts. There
is no other method by which the voter
can get that information. Yet by the
legal machinery provided by the refer
endum amendment to the Constitution
the voters will accept or veto the
measure.
YOUR VOTE MAY DECIDE THE
QUESTION.
The legislature and the Governor had
the information upon which to act.
The Governor and every member of
tn6 legislature decided tHdt IL Snoulu
become law. They were elected to
represent you.
Will you take the judgment of Gov
ernor Lister, who signed the bill; the
legislative committees of both houses,
the 5 senators and So representatives
who voted for the bill after hearing
both sides; the taxpayers who fathered
this measure and whose interests are
identical with yours?-or
Will you allow yourselves to be car
ried away by the arguments of those
who either are not well informed or
who will profit by its defeat?

It will make them spend the money for
the purpose agreed upon at the hearing
with the taxpayers.
Isn't this Popular government
It will prevent raids being made on the
treasury during the year for lot of half
baked, il-advised projects.
THIS Is THE GREAT CAUSE OF
HIGH TAKES AND THE HEAVY WAR
RANT INDEBTEDNESS.
It will compel all those with new schemes
for spending public money to wait until the
public hearing for making the budget, when
they must meet the taxpayers face to face.
It will allow emergency warrants for
purposes which could not have been FORE
seen at the time the budget was made up. It
will prohibit fake emergencies.
It will knock out the custom of counting
taxes levied as assets for indebtedness pur-
poses without upsetting the estimated ex-
penses for the year.

JUDGES RECENTLY STATED THAT
THIS ONE FEATURE ALONE WOULD
JUSTIFY PASSING THE MEASURE,
EVEN IF ALL THE THINGS SAID
AGAINST IT WERE TRUE.

to make public officers obey it's provisions.
That's why SO many of them are against it.

TO TAKE OFF FLESH
AND REDUCE WEIGHT
tat Plenty OF Wholesome Food But Breathe Deeply and Try
Little Oil Of KOren With Meals

Some people seem TO be able to eat
whatever they please without it's in
cressing their weight TO any degree,
while on the other hand other folks.
inclined to stoutness. try to eat light
ly Of the so-called fieshmaking foods
but keep gaining weight all the time.
Such a condition is both unnatural
and dangerous but can often be quick
ly overcome by practicing deep breath
ing in the open air. The blood of
the average overstout person seeming
ly fails to accept enough oxygen to
consume the excessive fatty material
in the food But frequent open air
deep breathing forces additional oXy-
gen into the system, largely overcom-
ing this defect and preventing further
increase in weight. Then If this
deep breathing plan is accompanied
by the use OF little oil OF korein,
taking a few drops in a capsule with
each meal and again before going to
bed, it becomes possible TO greatly re-
duce the weight even in a very few
days
The best feature Of this reducing
method is that it is absolutely safe
