BRITISH POSTAL
SERVICE UPSET
Under a Greater Strain
than Any Other Civil
Department.
,sr--uiu corr--pond-no. q IN. rl1bun. ]

London, Jan. 8-Of all the civil
branches OF tho British government the
Postoilice Department has felt the hand
Of war most keenly. The mere fact
that 10000 postal employees have Joined
the colors In the last year would easily
account for any amount OF chaos In tho
system. But IN spite OF tho obstacles
which have arisen thore have been sur
prisingly few grounds for complaint by
the public
The postal authorities have been hard
put 20 IL, however, and devouuy hope
that they never shall Gee another such
year They have handled n very great
amount Of extraordinary matter, and at
tho Same hme have found timo to train
thousands Of green postmen, drivers.
sorters. clerks and mechanics.
Al the General Postoffics hundreds OF
girls have been initiated into the bust
ness OF sorting mail. and after becom-
ing familiar with their task have de-
velopcd into far better sorters than
their malls predecessors. The post girl
Is now an accepted fact and practically
all Of tho clerical work Is done by
women.
New Building a Necessity.
An idea of the enormous incrcsse In
the postal traffic may be gathered from
the fact that a new building is being
erected to take care OF tho overflow.
although tho space had been quite ado
quate At the outbreak OF tho war. The
site IS IN Regents Park and the cost Of
the new structure will be we'll over
100000
II IS tbs parcels post which has CON
tributed most 20 the staggering increase
Of volume. To-day It is estimated that
no fewer than $4,000 parcels are CON
signed each week 70 the men OF the e1-
peditionary forces.
The parcels are Of all sizes and
shapes. Some are neatly wrapped and
legihly addressed. Others, many thou
sands OF thcm, are inadequately put up,
and the directions on them wellnigh
defy translstion-which calls for much
hard work and patience By the post
Office people.
Despite repeated warnings, persons
will insist on sending bottles OF liquid,
from coffee % spirits, through the
mails. and almost every instance re
suits I'm disaster % the other contents
Of tho package.
One such parcel bore the following
enlightening address. "Danel Private,

-Four Million Letters a Week.
A fair estimate OF the number Of let
ters posted 20 the army bases each
week Is 1000. 900. Many Of them con-
tain money, and their non-delivery
might cause hardships 20 the men for
whom they are Intended Hence the
need for extra caution in tbs military

There are on the books Of the depart
ment $50 widows and l.l80 orphans, all
Of whom are supported by funds col

Rush Men From This
City to Burning Town

Plant Engineer Schultz, of the Bell
Telephone Company here, was called
at 4 o'clock this morning and advised
that fire was raging in Galeton and
that the building in which the Bell
exchange was located, was burning.
The entire building with all equip
ment, was destroyed. Men were
rushed from Harrisburg with sections
of switchboard. Temporary service
is being given to some Galeton sub
scribers by connecting subscribers
lines to trunk lines. Those sub
scribers not so connected are called
by messenger and conveyed to n point
where telephone service can be had,
consequently Harrisburg subscribers
can receive Galeton service as here
tofore. All lines will be restored by
tonight or early Thursday morning.
A few minutes after the call from
Galeton Mr. Schultz was advised that
the hardware store next to the First
National Bank Building in Tamaqua
in which the new Bell common bat
terry exchange is being installed, was
burning. A few minutes later word
was received at Harrisburg that the
bank building was burning and the
new exchange was a complete loss.
Harrisburg subscribers are receiving
normal service to Tamaqua inasmuch
as the service had not been cut over
from the magnetic to the new COM
mon battery system.

bowels and you have a well, playful
child again. When its little system is
full of cold, throat sore, has stomach
ache, diarrhOea, indigestion, collie

should always be the first treatment
given.
Millions of mothers keep "Califor-
mia Syrup of Figs" handy; they know

child tomorrow. Ask your druggist
for a 50-cent bottle of California
Syrup of Figs" which has directions

NO MORE BACKACHE
NO MORE MISERY

Hundreds of people have been re-
lieved of the agonies caused by weak,
diseased or clogged-up kidneys by
using SolvaX, the new remedy that
quickly reaches the source of all kid
ney complaints.
If you suffer with pains in your back
and sides or have any signs of kidney
or bladder trouble such as rheumatic
pains, puffy swellings under the eyes
or in the feet and ankles, if you are
nervous, tired and run down, or both
cred with urinary disorders, SolvaX
will quickly and surely relieve you of
your misery.
SolvaX is probably the most potent
remedy yet devised for Kidding the sys-
tenn of uric acid and driving out all
the poisonous impurities which cause
such troubles. 1t neutralizeS, dissolves
and makes the kidneys sift out all tho
uric acid and poisons left by the
blood and renders the kidneys and
urinary organs clean, vigorous and
healthy.
Many of the best druggists say that
no medicine ought to be paid for un-
less it does the user some good. SolvaX
therefore sells under positive guaran-
tee to quickly relieve the worst cases
of kidney trouble or your money re-
funded. Try SolvaX to-day and il you
cannot see and feel decided change
for the better just go to the druggist
from whom you bought it and tell him
you want your money back and he
will return it without question. This
is the strongest argument that can be
offered In behalf of any medicine.
SolvaX is sold in Harrisburg and
vicinity by II. c. Kennedy and other
leading dealers.

Constantinople, Jan. II, via Lon

between Berlin and Constantinople

rival here of the first through Balkan

a party of newspaper men from the

Throughout Turkey the train re-

ception. The reception here was al
most typically American in en-
thusiasm. Speeches of welcome were
made; the station platform was jam
med with an immense crowd cheering
wildly and waving hats and handker-
chiefs; a brass band tried in vain to
make itself heard above the din.

DRESS WARM AND
KEEP FEET DRY
Tells Rheumatism Sufferers to
Take Salts and Get Rid
of Uric Acid.

rheumatism is no respecter of age,
sex, color or rank. If not the most
dangerous of human Affections it is
one of the most painful. Those sub
ject to rheumatism should eat less
meat, dress as warmly as possible,
avoid any undue exposure and, above
all, drink lots of pure water.
rheumatism is caused by uric acid
which is generated in the bowls and
absorbed into the blood. 1t is the
function of the kidneys to filter this
acid from the blood and cast It out in
the urine; the pores of the skin are
also a means of freeing the blood of
this impurity. In damp and chilly,
cold weather the skin pores are closed
thus forcing the kidneys to do double
work, they become weak and sluggish
and fail to eliminate this uric acid
which keeps accommodating and circu-
lating through the system, eventually
settling in the joints and muscles
causing stiffness, soreness and pain
called rheumatism.
At the first twinge of rheumatism
get from any pharmacy about four
ounces of Jad Salts; put tablespoon
full in glass of water and drink be-
fore breakfast each morning for a
week. This is said to eliminate uric
acid by stimulating the kidneys to nor
NAL action, thus Kidding the blood of
these impurities.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon Juice. combined with lithia
and is used with excellent results by
thousands of folks who are subject to
rheumatism. Here you have q pleas
ant. effervescent lithia-water drink
which overcomes uric acid and is bene-
fetal to your kidneys as well.-Adver-
tisement

the middle of a row of twelve frame
houses. The tiremen had Il stubborn
blaze to fight. The flames were be-
tween the walls and under the roof.
The fire spread to the Fleming house.
Mr.. Montgomery occupied the rear
room on the second floor. He was
placed in chair and carried to a
neighbor's home by Patrolmen Grear,
Buch, Fetrow and Hess.
The McCrearys are the heaviest
losers by the fire. The upper portion
of the rear building was gutted. The
bedroom and kitchen furniture was
destroyed. \. a. Pancake owns the
building, which is insured. The Nc
Crearys estimate their loss from fire
and water at $500. The damage TO
the building is estimated at S3OO.
The damage to the Fleming home
was mostly by water. Very little time
was given to get the furniture out.
Mr.. Fleming owns his home and esti-
mates his total loss at about S4OO
He carried n small insurance.
On the north side of the McCreary
building lives Luther Glassmyer. He
suffered somewhat from smoke.
There were a number of amusing
incidents during the fire. The MEM
bers of the Glassmyer family were
about to sit down to their noonday
luncheon. Vegetable soup was on the
bill of fare. Two of the girls are en-
ployed in a nearby plant. They did
not wait until the fire was out but
each took bowl of soup and sought
a place of safety TO enjoy the lunch
con.
Firemen and the big crowd of on
lockers let out a good hearty laugh
when they saw a woman coming from
one of the buildings, leading a dog
and carrying a cat in her arms.
When the water came through the
ceiling at the Fleming home a woman
let out a scream. F'iremen rushed
to see what had happened and were
told that a barrel of flour was get
ting wet. The flour was saved. The
woman was happy.
