The phrase The shortest road to
a mans heart is through his stomach"
IS by no means q modern saying. It
has been true throughout the history
Of mankind. and although intended t
be Joke, it is in reality no reflection
on masculinity. A man with a Door

have a disposition inclined even to
kind thoughts, much less to love.

EXCESSIVE MEAT EATING

Most people who are troubled with
flatulency eat more meat than is good
for them. Flatulency is wind on the
stomach. Excessive meat eatingor de-
fective nerve force is responsible in
most cases.
Cutting down the amount of meat in
your diet and taking course OF treat
ment with DIR. Williams Pink Pills to
strengthen the weak nerves that control
the digestive processes is well worth
trying if you have wind on thestomach,
sour Iisings in the throat, feeling of
weakness in the stomach and palpita-
ton of the heart. DR.. Williams Pink
Pills are recommended for thin blood
and weak nerves, whatever the cause.
Send today to the DR.. Williams Medi-
cine Co., Schenectady, N. Y, for the
diet book "What to Eat and How to
Eat" It gives information regarding
the tonic treatment for many forms of
stomach trouble. There cannot be

as available will decline to permit
the use of their names in view of
continuance of the factional outbreak.
1t is expected that the developments
of the next day or two will be of a
more or less startling character and
that the contest of the hastings ad-
ministration against Senator Quay
and the organization of that day will
be more or less duplicated. There
has been an insistent demand for
peace upon the part of the rank and
file throughout the State, but peace
showdown will come in the primary
election But for the alleged impend-
ing attack upon him it is stated in
quarters friendly to the Governor that
he would probably have eliminated
himself from the contest this week
with view to bringing about united
party front at Chicago.
The Governors reluctant consent to
the tentative use of his name in the
primary in the expressed hope of re-
uniting the combative and apparently
irreconcilable factions which have
threatened the very existence of the
party in Pennsylvania has tended to
aggravate rather than allay the bitter
ness OF the preliminary canvass.
Whole Business DistaStefuI
On more than one occasion Governor
| Brumbaugh has endeavored to clarity
Niit HiluettlOl Will respect 10 Ills own
| activities in the present controversy
and to convince all concerned, includ-
ing the rank and file of the party, that
his sole and only purpose was the
realisnment of the Republican forces
on solid ground that could be occupied
by stalwarts and progressives alike.
He has likewise always indicated his
willingness to efface himself and to do
| his utmost to further the party unity
! so necessary to Republican supremacy.
Political broadsword exercise is not
! the sort of gymnastics which arouses
! the Governors enthusiasm and the
clashing of arms is not the kind OF
music to which his ear has been
attuned. The whole business is dis
tasteful to him and it was expected
| by taking himself out of the factional
combat he would doubtless return with
fresh vigor and even more relish to the
big things which are associated with
| his program of public betterment and
the welfare of the people.

Selling Belgian Flags
as D. A. R. Contribution

There is much enthusiasm through
out the city among d. A. r. members,
for Belgian Flag Day tomorrow. the
anniversary of King Albert's birth
day. The little Belgian flags will be
sold for a minimum price of seven
cents, the ration of one Belgian for
one day. 1t is estimated that there
are 9O,O0O,OOO of people in the United
States who have not contributed a
cent to war sufferers and If there are
any of these in Harrisburg it is
hoped they will take this opportunity
of helping the women and children
of the forsaken land.
Mrs. Daisy Allen Story, president
general of the d. A. r. has sent the
following telegram to regents of
chapters throughout the land:
Let us justify Queen Elizabeth's
message. We must not fail Belgium
now--the only foreign country where
our flag is reverenced. Think of their
need; giving days labor is so little;
your help vital for success.

DOVE OF PEACE IS
DRIVEN FROM CAPITOL
Continued From First Page


does not propose to remain quiet un-
der certain veiled aspersions upon his
character and upon alleged trans
actions in the gubernatorial campaign
which resulted in his election.
As to the presence of Congressman
William Ware in Harrisburg last night,
the Governor explicitly stated when
asked about his visit here that Mr..
Ware was entirely unaware of any
possible retirement when he came to
| Harrisburg and that his visit had to
do entirely with certain Philadelphia
appointments which are pending and
| in which he is interested.
1t is no secret that Governor Brum-
baugh has been greatly disturbed over
the situation and that his own candi-
dacy for the presidential primaries has
had little to do with his decision to
remain in the fight. 1t is believed
further that he would have retired eX-
cept for certain rumors and intima-
| tions that have reached him regard
| ing a possible attack upon him. Under
the circumstances he is said to feel
! that his dropping out of the contest
now would be misunderstood and he
| prefers to defend himself rather than
be the subject of political reprisal. 1t
! is known that certain oVertures were
under consideration and that friends
of the Governor were acting for him
in an effort to bring about an honor
able adjustment of the factional diff
culties. 1t is also known that there
was a disposition to compose the un-
fortunate differences which exist and
agree upon an honorable settlement OF
all the matters involved.
All Hopes of Peace Vanish
All hope OF peace, however, has ap.
parently vanished and bitter fac
tional contest is anticipated. This
likely means the submission to the
voters in the primary election of two
National Convention and while g
number of names have been con.
sidered which are acceptable to both
sides, it is entirely probable that sew
eral of those who have been regarded
