WHAT'S THIS! NO MORE PICKLES,
SWISS CHEESE, POTATOES, SUGAR
OR SA AUERKRAUT FOR SALE HERE?

Harrisburgers with n strain of
Pennsylvania German blood who have
fondness for dill pickles, Swiss
cheese and pretzels, will be lucky soon
if they can get even the pretzels.
This was the information given to-
day by wholesale dealers who handle
the city's food supply The situation
has become exceedingly scarce.
The cold weather, too. has made
such a demand on the anthracite sup
ply in the city that dealers are looking
towards the railroads with something
like anxiety for coal shipments.
Twenty-Five barrels of sugar was
the last of the wholesalers supply this
morning. This had been distributed
to different points before noon. The
wholesalers made no advance in the
price. 1t is uncertain. it was said,
when the next shipment will be in.
Potatoes $2.40 Wholesale
Potatoes to-day were jumped in
price to a new high record. At whole
sale the tubers sold at $2.40 a bushel.
The supply was exceedingly scarce
and will be exhausted soon if the
freezing weather does not soon pass
away. Railroads will not carry po-

tatoes because of the trouble caused
by freezing.
Blame for the shortage was placed
largely on the railroads. Orders for
foodstuffs placed before the first of
the year are still ION the road" 1t was
said. Orders placed in January are
still in the freight stations awaiting
cars. California dried fruits, now in
favor with pastry cooks, are dwind-
ling down with the railroads reticent
as to when the next shipment will
be in.
Sauerkraut! This Is Too Much!
An effort to relia' e the sauerkraut
famine has proven futile. There aren't
ten barrels of the shredded cabbage
within miles and a carload lot of the
canned stuff has been lost for weeks
after leaving the Michigan "kraut"
belt four weeks ago. Cabbage, which
formerly sold at and 10 cents, is
retailing in the grocery stores at 10
cents a pound. This makes 40 cents
the average for reasonably fair sized
head.
Getting back to Swiss cheese, dill
pickles and pretzels, it was said that
the last of the real imported cheese
was eaten more than two months ago
and that the last of dill pickles can
now be seen in the brine.

An Effective LaxatiUe
For GrolDing Children
DR.. Cald,Uelrs Syrup Pepsin
Highly Recommended as
Family Remedy.

In children the slightest Irregular
ity of the bowels has tendency to
disturb the entire digestive system,
and unless promptly remedied invites
serious illness. The experienced
mother knows that by training her
children to regularity in this respect,
and when occasion arises administer
ing a mild laxative, she will have lit
tie need for the doctors services.
Mrs. Leo Weigand, 1851 Central
Ave, N s., Pittsburgh, Pa, whose two
boys, Frank and Joseph, are shown in
the illustration, writes that she has
found DIR Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin
most effective laxative, not only for
the children but also for herself and
that she will always keep it in the
house to use when needed. DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin is combination
of simple laxative herbs with pepsin
that acts easily and naturally with
out gripping or other pain or discom-
fort. II is pleasant to the taste so
that children like it, and is equally
effective on the strongest constitution.

MARRIED TO TREES IN INDIA

Under the very shadow of the tele-
graph pole. we find the tree Worship
pers of India Many kinds of trees are
worshipped in India for many kinds
of reasons. Some are supposed to be
the abode of demons who must be pro-
pitiated. The Sacred Bo tree under
which Buddha received enlightenment
is worshipped by pilgrims who come
in thousands.
In some small villages where there
are more women than men, it often
happens that there are no men of
equal caste to the girl whose time has
come to marry. Since the tree repre-
sents a deity which can assume any
rank or caste, the parents of mar
riageable daughter who has become a
burden to the family, take her to the
village tree-god and marry her to him.
She is bound to the tree, and left either
to the mercy of the prowling wild
beasts, or to be rescued by the first
male of lower caste who is in search
of a helpmeet.-"World Outlook" for
