SUNDAY FISHING
EAGERLY SOUGHT
Maurer Bill Outlines Some of
the Arguments in Favor of
the Proposition

A new reason for permitting fish
ing on Sunday was given by James H.
Maurer, the Reading Socialist and
labor leader, in a measure which he
introduced in the House. Fishing on
Sunday, as everyone knows, nowadays
reduces the high cost of living-pro-
viding the fisherman catches any fish.
But here's Maurer's reason:
Whereas the day of rest commonly
called Sunday was made for man and
not man for Sunday; and
Whereas innocent recreation on
the day of rest Injuries none, but on
the contrary conduces to better phys
ical and moral we'll being; and
Whereas to man tired by six days
of labor the art of fishing affords an
opportunity of rest and relaxation and
an acquaintance with nature denied
during the days of toll; and
whereas the span of human life is
short enough without making it
shorter by absurd laws that accom-
plish no material good, but simply
tend to arouse resentment in those not
limited by selfish creeds and beliefs:
Therefore be it enacted by the
Senate and House of Representatives
of the Commonwealth of Pennsylva-
MIA, in General Assembly met, and it
is hereby enacted by the authority of
the same, That 1t shall be lawful to
fish on the day commonly called Sun
day"

AN OLD RECIPE
To DARKEN HAIR
Sage Tea and Sulphur Turns
Gray, Faded Hair Dark
and Glossy.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streak
ed or gray. Years ago the only way
to get this mixture was to make it at
home, which is mussy and trouble
some.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Weyth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound" You will get
a large bottle of this old time recipe
improved by addition of other ingred-
tents for about so cents. Everybody
uses this preparation now. because
no one can possibly tell that you
darkened your hair, as it does it so
naturally and evenly. You dampen
sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at time; by morn
ing the gray hair disappears and af-
ter another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick
and glossy and you look years young
er. Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is a delightful toilet requisite
1t is not intended for the cure, miti-
cation or prevention of disease.

URGES EVERYONE
TO QUICKLY GET
ON WATER WAGON
Drink glass of hot water before
breakfast to wash out
poisons.

To see the tinge of healthy bloom
In your face, to see your skin get
clearer and clearer, to wake up with
out headache, backache, coated
tongue or a nasty breath. in fact to
feel your best, day in and day out, just
try inside-bathing every morning for
one week.
Before breakfast each day, drink
glass of real hot water with a tea
spoonful of limestone phosphate in it
as harmless means of washing from
the stomach, liver, kidneys and bow
els the previous days indigestible
waste, sour bile and toxins; thus
cleansing, sweetening and purifying
the entire ailmentary canal before
putting more food into the stomach.
The action of hot water and limestone
phosphate on an empty stomach is
wonderfully invigorating. 1t cleans
out all the sour lamentations, gases
and acidity and gives one a splendid
appetite for breakfast.
A quarter pound of limestone phos-
phate will cost very little at the drug
store but is sufficient to demonstrate
that Just as soap and hot water
cleanses, sweetens and freshens the
skin, so hot water and limestone phos-
phate act on the blood and internal
organs. Those who are subject to
constipation. bilious attacks, acid
stomach. rheumatic twinges, also those
whose skin is sallow and complexion
pallid, are assured that one week of
nside-bathing will have them both
looking and feeling better in every
way.

NEWSOFLEGISLATURE
LEGISLATORS GO
HOME TIL MONDAY
Adjournment Taken in Both
Branches Last Night After
Very Short Sessions

Both branches of the Legislature
adjourned last evening until 9 o'clock
on Monday night. The decision to
hold up the Sproul resolution caused
change in plans and as the commit
tees had not yet gotten fairly started
the leaders decided to quit.
Neither branch was in session very
long yesterday. The House held very
brief meetings and the Senate was in
session a little time.
In the House the Daix resolution
which practically establishes a budget
was passed as it came from the Sem
ate. This resolution does not have to
go to the government, but If there is
anything that cannot be found out
about expenditures of the State gov
ernment under it the item must be
elusive. In effect it gives the House
the information on how every dollar
was spent and what every dollar is
wanted for in the next two years.
During the final meeting Speaker
Baldwin referred about thirty bills.
Mr.. Siggins, Warren, introduced
bills to fix salaries of county commits
sioners in all counties of the State
and to pay county auditors $40 per
day employed. He also presented a
bill to appropriate sS27,500 to Warren
State hospital.
over 20 appropriation bills were
also presented.
other bills submitted were:
MIR. Strauss, Berks-AuthoriZing
supervisors of second-class townships

ing s437,S33.44 to the western peni-
tentiary.
The first bill to be reported from
committee was one relative to the
York county poor boards right to is
sue bonds. Mr.. Whitaker, Chester, re-
ported it.
