MAULFAR WIDOW
WINS THE AWARD
First Important Compensation
Case in Harrisburg Is
Decided Today

Compensation for the death of
Noah Maulfair, fatally injured while
making a delivery of merchandise af-
ter store hours in this city, was al
lowed to his widow, Mrs. Annie Maui
fair, to-day in a formal decision by
r. X. Saylor. referee in compensation
for this district The award was filed
at the office of the State Compensation
Bureau and will stand as precedent
for the whole State unless appealed
to the board.
The case presented some unusual
features, the proposition whether de-
livery after hours could be held as
performing a service for which COM
pensation could be granted looming
up TO affect thousands of employers in
Pennsylvania. 1t also transpired that
the employer had no insurance what
ever.
Maulfair was employed by S. A.
Brunner, grocer at 1900 North Fifth
street, Harrisburg, and on January
10, while delivering some butter af-
ter p. M, in the central part of the
city, was struck by jitney and fatally
hurt. It was claimed that he was act
ing in furtherance of his employer S
interests and the referee upheld that
contention Notwithstanding a deter
mined legal battle at a hearing held
here recently Lawyers and employ
ers all over the State were interested
and the decision was eagerly awaited.
Under Referee Saylors finding Mrs.
Maulfair receives hospital and funeral
expenses, amounting to over 500, and
So Il week for 500 weeks. The de-
ceased employe was paid 50. week.
This cost will fall on Mr.. Drummer,
who had no insurance in either State
fund or companies. 1t is said at the
Capitol that s. policy in the State
Fund or a Sc policy in a company
would have protected the employer.
Referee Saylor to-day secured an
agreement between the Pennsylvania
railroad and heirs of William Nelson
Steelle., who was killed at Enola,
while in the company's employ. The
widow will receive forty-five per cent.
of pay for 800 weeks and the son also
be paid.

HAVE DARK HAIR
and LOOK YOUNG
Nobody can Tell when you
Darken Gray, Faded Hair
with Sage Tea.

Grandmother kept her hair beauti-
fully darkened, glossy and attractive
with brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Whenever her hair took on that dull
faded or streaked appearance. this
simple mixture was applied with
wonderful effect. BY asking at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound" you will get a large
bottle of this old-time recipe, inn
proved by the addition of other in
gradients, all ready to use, for about
so cents. This simple mixture can
be depended upon to restore natural
color and beauty to the hair.
a well-known downtown druggist
says everybody uses Wyeths Sage and
sulphur Compound now because il
darkens so naturally and evenly that
nobody can tell it has been applied
it's so easy to use, too. You simply
dampen a comb or soft brush and
draw it through your hair, taking
one strand at time. BY morning the
gray hair disappears; after another
application or two, it is restored to
its natural color and looks glossy,
soft and beautiful. This preparation
is a delightful toilet requisite. 1t is
not intended for the cure, mitigation
or prevention of disease.

ASTHMA
Simple Harmless Remedy Brings
Quick Relief.

Many cases of immediate relief and
rapid recovery from Bronchial Asthma
of long standing and other diseases of
throat and lungs are being credited to
a discovery made by DR.. Eugene How
ard of Worcester. Mass. DR. Howard s
prescription, which is totally different
from all usual methods of treatment
for these afflictions, is called OXidaze
and comes in the form of a tablet which
the patient allows to dissolve slowly
in the mouth. It's curative. healing
juices thus mingle with the saliva and
enter every crevice of the irritated
bronchial membranes, release the mus
cular construction of the bronchial
tubes, open up the air passages and
regulate the spasmodic lung action
These tablets, though pleasant to the
taste, are so powerful and rapid in
theh action that many users who for
years were obliged to sit up in bed
gasping for breath and unable to sleep
report that they now put a single OXi-
daZe tablet in their mouth when going
TO bed and can then lie down and
breathe easily and naturally and get
a good nights restful sleep. G. A,
Gorgas Drug Company and many other
local druggists who handle OXidaze
tablets sell it on the positive guar
antee of money back if it does not
give immediate relief.

PALE SCHOOL CHILDREN

This is the time of the year that school
children grow pale. Confined indoors,
for many hours day, studying at night,
perhaps, deprived of much out-of-door
exercise, their blood grows thin. Com
pare your child's complexion with what
1T was last summer. Probably you have
not realized how thin the blood was get
ting because the change was so gradual.
When a child formerly bright and
active loses color and finds play an eff
fort, but prefers to sit still and read,
there is every reason to suspect that the
blood is getting thin, that the child is
anemic. Sometimes there is headache
and nosebleed. These confirm the sus-
picion. 1t is condition that is full of
danger, for thin blood is an open door to
many diseases, especially during change
ful weather. But it is a condition that is
easily remedied if taken in time. DIR.
Williams Pink Pills can be obtained at
any drug store. A f1fty-cent box con-
tains about two weeks treatment and
these pills are great blood-builder and
invigorator. They are just the sort OF
non-alcoholic tonic that many children
need.

line Co, Schenectady, N. Y. for the free
book Building Up the Blood" and learn
all about the treatment. A diet book
Will also be sent free on request.

Longest Session of
Liquor License Court
Concluded at Last

With the hearing this morning of
argument on the remonstrance against
John i. Snyder, wholesale liquor
dealer of Middletown, for re-license
of his establishment, the Dauphin
county courts concluded a two weeks
session of liquor license court.
Since February IS both President
Judge Kunkel and Additional Law
Judge McCarrelI have been sitting daily
to hear testimony on remonstrances
against the re-licensing of nearly a
score of old privilege holders and the
application for a new one. The bat
tie that was fought out by the COM
bined efforts of the city churches and
the No-License and Law and Order
Leagues of Dauphin county was based
largely on the unspeakable conditions
that were discovered in many of the
winerooms of local hotels in the
course of a sweeping investigation by
representatives of the two leagues.
With the opening of court to-day,
the judges heard the argument on
the remonstrance against Samuel
Fishman's request for license at the
Hotel LennoX, 424-2S Market street.
The st. Lawrence Hotel application in
Berrysburg followed and then Sny-
der's case was considered In protest
ing against the re-granting of this
privilege, Harry Saussaman, counsel
for the remonstrants, explained why
the 1S-year- negro to whom, it was
alleged Snyder sold liquor, had been
brought to court at the hearing. Sny-
der contended that the negro looked
like a man of 25 or 26 years of age.
The attorney for the objectors said
he thought it only fair that the youth
in question should be brought in so
that the court could see and judge
for itself as to the mans age.
While the court did not indicate
when a decision could be expected on
the held-up licenses, the opinion pre-
vailed in legal circles that no opinion
would likely be handed down before
next week.

FOX MAKES PLEA
FOR HARMONY
CONTINUED From First Page ]

strong plea for party harmony
throughout the nation.
AT the last presidential election the
Republican party went down to de-
feat" said he, because of unfortunate
differences among it's members. The
years of Democratic administration,
until the economic and industrial ad-
vantages came to this land because of
the war among foreign nations, have
demonstrated the misfortune which re-
suited to the country from those diff
ferenceS which occurred in the party.
Necessity of Change
our national prosperity and pres,
tige have been built up under Repub-
lican policies, and, if they are to abide.
there must be return to those prin-
ciples. This is no time for factional
strife. All believers in those prin-
ciples should forget their personal diff
ferences and suppress selfish purposes,
and regardless ofwhat ticket they voted
four years ago unite upon one liberal
platform and in free, open and uncon-
trolled primaries, which l believe
should always prevail, and select good
candidates. so that we may present a
united front in November.
No fractional Fight
Grateful rs the recipient of favors
at the hands of the party in days. gone
by and in discharge of what believed
to be my duty, / have during the past
several months endeavored to impress
this upon all with whom 1 have dis
cussed the local and general political
situations, and am confident that there
will be no factional fight in Dauphin
county. l hope the same result will be
achieved in the State and in the Ma
ton. and that on next November the
control of our national affairs will
again be placed in the hands of those
who believe in the principles of the
Republican party"
Many Signers
There were few new developments
in local politics to-day. The petitions
of Congressman Kreider for renomi>
nation have reached town and are be-
ing numerously signed. Senator Bel
dleman has now nearly 1900 signers
to his petitions. among them being the
names of ex-senator FosS and ex-Reve-
nue. Gollector Harry L. Hershey.

Uncle Sans Postal
Employees Must Pay
Work Tax to Vote

Federal employees in the postal or
railway mail service who own no
property and therefore pay no State
or county tax, must pay an occupa-
ton tax in Harrisburg if they wish to
register to vote, according to a deci-
sion to-day of Dauphin countys board
of commissioners.
The problem was put up to the
board by Elmer E. -Fouse, Is South
Nineteenth street in a letter calling
attention to the recent decisions of
the Erie and Perry county courts
which held that the United States
postal laws, employees in the mail SER
vice are exempt from payment of any
occupation tax.

NEWPORT THRIVES
UNDER "DRY" REGIME


lSOnJinucu ffonl flFSG rage
time on record drafted and en-
dorsed TO the Perry county court
a resolution praying that New
port be kept in the dry column
another year. Not only the actual
members OF the council. but the
secretary, treasurer and burgess
also signed this paper, showing
the desire of the borough fathers
in the matter.
No doubt this significant move
was made from the fact that the
council thought 1t was for the
towns best interests. From q
monetary standpoint, at least, it
seems that No-License Newport is
a gamer. The revenue from
licenses accruing to the borough
amounted to $325, whereas the
police force cost the borough 5000.
Under the present temperance
conditions the latter has been
done away with. Since the town
is dry the lookup is hardly ever
used for prisoners. but funds are
provided for unfortunate way
farers TO spend a night in the
haunts that formerly harbored the
maudlin "drunks."
Inc consensus OF opinion is lndC
business has not dropped off. The
trade of a certain element who
need their "bitters" may go to
neighboring damp" centers, but
none of the businessmen seem to
miss this sort of business, whereas
those who remain are in position
to buy more of life's staples. Most
merchants feel further that it is
a low basis on which to consider
the license question, believing that
even if they must lose a little
business on account of closed
bars, they realize that the present
condition is for the good of the
town, and with few exceptions are
anxious that it remain so.
