Police Jobs to All Com
petitors

Civil service for police departments
in third class cities was proposed in a

Provision is made for a board of
examiners of three men. Appoint
ments to the department must be
made from the recommendations of
this board. Physical and mental ex-

from the Governor at the last minute
and kill by the insertion of minor
amendment
The bill calling for the establish
ment of physical training in the pub
nc schools was favorably reported by
the committee on military affairs and
promptly sent to the committee on APP
preparations. The bill providing for
the establishment of q State fund for
the pensloning of public school teach
ers was taken from the calendar and
recommitted to the appropriations
committee for amendment.
A tilt between Senators Charles A.
snyder and T. Larry Eyre enlivened
the floor when the latter asked for
unanimous consent for the passage of
resolution calling on Congress not
10 reduce the tax on oleomargarine
from 10 to cents pound.
Senator Snyder wanted to know the
purpose OF the resolution and was in
formed that it was. to protect the in
erests of the farmers and dairies
senator Snyder mentioned that the
tax was not entirely favored by the
consumer, but finally agreed to sup
port the resolution which was passed
with one or two dissenting votes.
prohibition forbidding the manu-
facture and sale\of intoxicating liquors
was incorporated in a bill introduced
by Senator r. e. Smith. A bill abol.
ishing associated judges not learned

This Simple Laxative
A Household Necessity
DR.. CaId,OeIPs Syrup Pepsin
Should Haze a Place in
EUery Home.

Constipation, or inaction of the
bowels, a condition that nearly every
one experiences with more or less
frequency, is the direct cause of much
disease. When the bowels become
clogged with refuse from the stomach,
foul gases and poisonS are generated,
and unless the congestion is quickly
relieved the system becomes weaken
ed and most susceptible to attack.
Various remedies to relieve consti-
patton are prescribed, but many of
these contain cathartic or purgative
agents that are harsh and violent in
their action and shock the system.
The most effective remedy is the COM
bination of simple laxative herbs with
pepsin that is sold in drug stores un-
der the name of DR.. CaldwelTs Syrup
Pepsin.
The Hon. John D. Keister of
Brandywine, w. Va, who has rep
resented his district in the State Legis-
lature for six years, writes that he
uses DR.. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin and
finds it a splendid laxative, easy to
take and mild, yet positive, in its ac-
ton, and that it should be in every
household for use when needed.
DR.. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin is sold
by druggists in all parts of the United
States and costs only fifty cents a
bottle. 1t contains no opiate or mar
cotic drug, does not gripe and is
recommended as a family laxative,
mild enough for the tiniest babe, yet

A bill to amend the workmen's
compensation act so that domestic SER
wants and agricultural laborers may
participate in the benefits of the law

Mr.. Brumbaugh, Blair. The present

limits.

Food in Germany Scanty;
Must be Carefully Managed
By 4tSocfatcd PrcSs


London, Feb. 27.-Adolf Won Bato-
cki, president of the food regulation
board discussed food problems with
the Reichstag advisory committee on
Saturday, according to an Amsterdam
dispatch to Reuters. Explaining the
plans for the coming year, Herr Bato-
cki said that available stocks were
scanty and must be carefully managed.
He added that the use of bread corn
for fodder must be prevented.
Herr Batocki announced the inten-
ton of the food board to fix the price
of potatoes for the entire year at five
marks a hundredweight, except in the
west and south of Germany, where
1t would be six marks. He emphasiz-
ed the Importance of a supply of
bread corn and potatoes for every
body and milk for children at least.
The food dictator said it was impos-
sible to increase the meat rations
owing to the urgent necessity of main
tanning the stock of milk cows for
butter and milk.
