MAJESTIC BILL
Is ENTERTAINING
Each Act Brings Much Ap-
plause; Many Encores
Called; Fine Singing

Vaudeville patrons of Harrisburg
were amply repaid for their attend
ance last evening at the Majestic the
ater. 1t was one of the best programs
at the theater this year and each act
was heartily applauded.
Beginning with Vanatta and Ger
shon, whose attractiveneSs was one
of the features of the show, every
act was encored. Vanatta and Ger
shon sang and played their way into
the hearts of the audience; Morris
and Campbell, comedy entertainers,
were a scream and proved to be a
good second to the first act. Charles
w. Boyers presentation of THE
Southern Misses in Mammy'S Dream
was a good pivot act and balanced
the program well. Eight pretty girls,
two colored, and each specializing
III either singing or dancing, follow
ed the example set by the first two
acts Manning, Feeney and Knoll, a
singing trio rendered several songs,
and at the conclusion were forced
to respond several times to the ap-
plause of the audience. They were
the best comedy singers heard in
Harrisburg for some time. Mile.
Elmina and Co. in Art Ala Carte"
gave an excellent exhibition in bal
ancing.
While there were many small fea-
lures that could have been eliminat-
ed, the program was the best bal
anced, and one of the most enter
tanning of the year.

SIX months old. She doctored quite
awhile but did not seem to get any
better. She came to me one evening
and wanted me to go with her to see
another doctor. So we went to his
Office and the doctor tested her
lungs thoroughly; then he asked her
all manner of questions. He did not
tell her what he thought, but told
her to use plenty of milk and fresh
eggs and take Cod Liver Oil. When
we got outside the office she purst

Backache

In spite Of the best care one takes
Of oneself, any part of the human machine
is liable to become out of order. The
most important organs are the stomach,
heart and kidneys.
The kidneys are the scavengers and they
work day and night in separating the
poisons from the blood. Their signals of
distress are easily recognized and in
clude such symptoms as backache, de-
pressions, drowsiness, irritability, head
aches, dizziness, rheumatic twinges,
dropsy, govt.
"The very best way to restore the
kidneys to their normal state Of health,"
drink plenty q pure 'u water "a and obtain
from your favorite pharmacy a small
amount Of Anuric, which is dispensed by
almost every druggist" Anuric is mex
pensive and should be taken before meals.
You will find Anuric more potent than

COURSE TO BE PURSUED If GER
MANY cOMPELS USE OF FORCE
BY UNITED STATES TO BE
DECIDED ON.
TO PROTECT U. S. RIGHTS
LEAVING ISSUE TO KAISER
President Anxious to Avoid War But
Determined That Americans and
Their Shipping Shall Travel
High Seas Unmolested-
May Convoy Ships.

Washington, Feb. 1O.-The course t.
be taken by the United States if Ger
many compels the use of force to safe
guard American lives and rights has
been determined.
1t was learned authoritatively after
the cabinet meeting that if President
Wilson goes before Congress again it
will not be to ask for declaration
Of war, but to follow literally the
words Of the address in which he an.
nounced the break in diplomatic re.
lations and request authority to use
means deemed necessary to protect
American seamen and people.
The President, it was stated, is as
anxious as ever to avoid war with
Germany, but also is as determined
as ever that American citizens and
ships shall be free to travel the high
seas unmolested. His next step. I:
necessary, will be to enforce that right
and even then the issue of war or
peace will have to come in the form
of an interference with an American
right.
May Convoy Merchantmen.
Details of the governments plans
are not discussed. 1t is known, how
ever, that conveying and arming of
merchant ships are being considered.
No new developments came to In,
dictate that the overt act by Germany
regarded as inevitable was near at
hand. Several reports Of ships sunk
came In, and none told officially of
the loss Of an American life. Further
information received about George
Washington, the negro fireman lost on
the Turino, indicated that he prob
ably was British subject.
The cabinet met with all members
present except Secretary McAdoo.
Questions discussed included pro
posed emergency legislation, steps TO,
T protecting property, mail problems
precipitated by the failure of ships
to sail from American ports for Eu
rope, economic issues, and the army
and navy preparations.
No Change Decided On.
After the meeting it was authorize
lively stated that nothing had YET
happened to change THE course pur
sued by the government since the
break in relations with Germany.
The cumulative effect of reports Of
vessels sunk makes officials certain
Germany is indeed proceeding with
her proclaimed policy of ruthlessness
The effect of the tying up Of ships
In American harbors because of fsal
that they will be sunk if they pass
through the war zone, is being care
fully considered.
As far as could be learned, there
have been no reports to the govern
ment of serious consequences to in
dustries, but such reports are expected
and the enforced idleness of the mer
chant feet is subject of growing
evaporation.

Educators Opinion.

1 believe that organized emotion can
rever take the place of brains; that
fale's first duty in preparing American
citizens, whether for peace or war, is
to adhere to rigid standards Of disci-
pline and scholarship and well-devel-
oped sense of prcportionate values.
If our students have these things as
a basis, the more they prepare them
selves for the possible requirement OF
military service the better. Without
them the spirit Of preparedness may
become danger; with them it is a
safeguard and blessing.-President
