WHAT BECOMES OF THAT CENT?

A farmer comes to town with
thirty apples, which he sells three
for cent, getting, of course, 10 cents
for them.
Another farmer, also with thirty
apples, sells them two for cent,
getting IS cents for his. They get
25 cents in all.
The next time they come in, with
thirty apples each, they meet at the
edge Of town aud put their apples
together, making sixty apples. 9ne
man having sold two for cent, the
other three for cent, they decide
to sell them five for 2 centss
They do SO, and when they rethru
find out they have received only "a

The problem is, why did they not
get as much for their apples selling
them five for 2 cents as they did
when they sold them separately, or ,
what became of the eni?-Colum-

Victory Bread Makes Its

Household consumers are using
Victory bread to-day, If they get
their bread supply from city bakers.
A careful canvass of the situation
this morning showed that all the
bread being sold in the city is made
of a mixture of wheat flour and
twenty per cent. of other cereal sub

Household consumers ought not

to-day and the bread of a week ago
Rricker's new bakery has been us
ing the full twenty per cent. substi-

flour is the substitute used. The
Standard bakeries have been using

wheat flour for a week, thus con-
forming to- the regulations a week

Jewish Feast of Purim
to Be Celebrated in City

The Jewish feast of urim, one of
the minor festivals in the religious
calendar, will be celebrated to-mor-
row. Purim, according to. the scrip
tural book of Esther. wherein the
tale is narrated, means lots" lots
having been cast before Haman,
vizier of Persia, for the purpose of
determining the day most auspicious
for the consummation of his plan
of eXterminating all the Jews dwell
ing in the land. But the day was
fatal only to Haman's plans and to
Haman himself, for through a chain
of remarkable happenings the Jews
were delivered from their imminent
peril and the doom he had decreed
for them fell on their enemy him
self. From that year to the present
time, Jews all over the world have
celebrated the anniversary of the day
on which the wondrous deliverance
had occurred.
Strange to say, Purim is hardly a
religious feast. Religious features
added in comparatively recent times
only accenture the essentially secu-
lar character of the day. Being in
the nature of a thanksgiving festi-
cal. an expression of a peoples graf
itude for their ancestors providen-
tial redemption from an awful death,
it has been from time immemorial
day Of "feasting and gladness, and
of sending portions to one another
and gifts to th+ poor" in the media
eval ghettos 1t was celebrated with
all manner of merry making, while
in modern times it has come to be
one of the days to which the chill
dren of the Jewish religious schools
most eagerly look forward.
A special synagogue service will
be held in the synagogue this eve
ming, at which the principal feature
is the reading of the Book of Esther

Health, Vigor and Appetite

officer w. s. Monroe, who lives at
1871 Sixth street, Harrisburg and is
so popular among visitors to the
park, said:
my stomach had gone back on me
entirely. Was constipated and my
kidneys troubled me greatly. Then
1 remembered that 1 had read a lot
about folks who had been helped by
Tanlac so 1 bought a bottle and
started talking it. We'll, sir, you can
believe me or not, but the very first
doses did me good. I could feel it
sort of nosing around inside of me
hunting out the trouble and before
I had finished the first bottle 1 felt a
hundred per cent. better.
Now / eat with relish, nv
stomach is in fine shape and those
bad headaches 1 used to suffer with
have left me entirely and can only
thank Tanlac."
Tanlac is now being introduced
here at George A. Gorgas' drug
store.

WAR PRESENTS
BIG PROBLEMS
Major Garrett Says Z. S.
Faces Great Task in
Winning

The discourse of Major w. A.
Garrett, general manager of the
Remington Arms Company, at the
Chamber of Commerce smoker on
Saturday night, was a forerunner of
the appearance of Howard Heinz,
who is to tell Harrisburg about food
saving. Major Garrett was a mem
ber of the commission of railroad
executives sent abroad to study con-
ditions and he gave it as his opinion
that America must wake up and put
on more speed. The French, he
said, have made every sacrifice in
the way of travel, and the roads are
practically devoted entirely to car
rying troops and ammunition. Vast
numb bers of women help on the
transportation. He told of severe
methods used for forcing food con-
servation, the like of which may be
enforced here if the nation does not
respond more generously.
The Major sounded a warning
note as to what might be expected
with the conclusion of a German
Russian peace. when he said that
it would mean the release of 1.600,-
900 prisoners. He foretold that with
this added strength Germany would
become a greater menace and
heavier burdens would fall upon the
American people.
