Poiiteness In Athens,

A long time ago. in Athens. the Spar
tan boys were guests OF Athenian boys
at the theater. They were sitting in
the front row because they were the
guests Of honor.
Just before the play began an old
man came into the crowded theater,
and made his way down to the front.
He stopped by the seats OF the Ath-
enian boys. and they commenced to
make fun. of him. He turned sadly
away.
AS he was about to go away the
Spartan boys all rose and motioned
for the old man to come and sit with
them. At first the Athenian boys were
ashamed: then they began to cheer.
All the people were attracted by this
and looked to see the cause of It.
When the cheering was over. the old
man stood up and said:
"Athenian boys know what is right,
but the Spartan boys do what is
right"

GUARD YOUR FAMILY

PERuNA protects the family
against coughs, colds, catarrh,
bronchitis, catarrh of the stomach,

the bowels as it is case of catarrh
of the head.
Anyone suffering from catarrh,
severe or mild, acute or chronic, in
any organ or part of the human
body, should at once get bottle of
PERUNA.
AS soon as the value of PERuNH
is fully appreciated in every house,
hold, both as a preventive and a
relief from catarrhal affections.
tens of thousands of lives will be
saved and hundreds of thousands
of chronic lingering cases will be
prevented. PERUNA, indeed, is
household safeguard.
A course of PERUNA never fails
to bring relief in such cases, since
there is no remedy like it, as
thousands of people have testified.

War Department Does Not
Regard Report Of Villas
Raid as Quite Accurate

Washington, Sept. %. - Secretary
Baker let it be known to-day that the
War Department was not disposed tc
accept as accurate the report of Villas
raid on Chihuahua City last Saturday
transmitted by Brigadier General Bell
yesterday on the strength of informa-
ton that had reached him in Ell
Paso.
I'VE have no military information
as to renewed Villista activities Mr..
Bayer said, indicating that it was as
sumed that General Bells account was
based on rumors and reports current
In border towns and not facts OBJ
tanned through army channels in
Mexico. He declined to discuss in any
way what effect the temperance of
Villa, if it were confirmed might have
on the movements of American troops
in Mexico.
So far as is known the War Depart
ment has made no effort to learn from
General Bell the sources of his infor-
nation. General Funston is expected
to transmit promptly without any ad-
ditoinal instructions any authentic
news of the activities of the bandits
upon which any change in plan involv-
ing General Pershings expedition
might be founded.

Work on the additions to the Har-
risburg post office is moving with a
rush. The contractors, II. L. Brown

moving satisfactorily. The concrete
base for the tile flooring Is complete on
the first and second floors and tiling
is being laid on the second floor.
AS soon as the building is complete
iy under roof, it is said, the work Will
move more rapidly. There have been
some slight changes TO the original
plans, and other alterations it is said
will be made. Early next week POST

of the style of present coping around
the post office plot TO a more attractive

TARIFF ELASTICITY
NEED AFTER WAR
Trade Council Says European
Nations Will Seek Con-
ceSSlOnS

New York, Sept. %. - Greater elas-
ticity in the country's tariff system is
necessary to meet trade conditions
that will arise at the close of the
European war, according to a report
submitted to the National Foreign
Trade Council by a committee which
has investigated the foreign trade as
poets of the tariff.
Calling attention to the readjust-
ment of the tariff relations at the close
of the conflict and the possibility that
the present belligerents will seek recip-
rocal tariff concessions from one an
other and from neutrals, the commit
tees report continues:
Protection From Discrimination
"All European nations will, with
peace, have a large market to offer
and may be expected to yield it only
for opportunities to extend or protect
from discrimination their foreign
trade.
with the exception of the United
Kingdom, all the belligerents have, in
their tariff systems, ample resources
for negotiations for tariff advantages
ton.
The foregoing circumstances show
the necessity for greater elasticity than
now obtained in the American tariff
system, regardless of whether the tar
iff is maintained for protection or for
revenue or partially for each. 1t is
obvious that the United States should
have some method of adjusting the
tariff to new conditions created by po-
litical or commercial changes on the
part of our competitors and our Gus
toners, without resorting to a general
revision. The creation of the tariff
commission should contribute to this
end"
Friendly Readjustment Urged
The National Foreign Trade Council
held its third annual meeting yester-
day, with James A. Farrell, president
of the United States Steel Corporation,
presiding. Mr.. Farrell urged a friend
ly readjustment of commercial rela-
tions by the United States and Euro
pean nations without resort to trade
wars.
After the reading of the committees
report the council adopted a resolution
directing that, in view of the threaten
ed change, by commercial treaties and
tariff regulations IN foreign trade af-
ter the war, the council bring to the
attention OIL the President, Congress
and the Tariff Commissio onfi when or
ganized, "the necessity that the Amer
lean tariff system shall possess ade-
quate resources for the encouragement
of the foreign trade of the United
States by commercial treaties or agree
ments or executive concessions within
defined limits and its protection from
undue discrimination in the mark
of the world"
1t was further resolved that tho
council should continue its investiga-
ton OF the effect of our European
economic alliances upon the foreign
trade of the United States and make a
report thereon to the President Con-
Sress or the Tariff Commission
