GOrgas Asks You To
Stop SneeZing

The campaign being inaugu-
rated today by the army medical
corps against promiscuous cough
ing, splitting and sneezing, will be
successful only through the closest
and widest possible cooperation.
Its success will mean a lower
death rate for our soldiers and for
the public generally, as well as
better health for everybody. The
health of our soldiers depends
TO a great extent upon the
health of the civil population. since
soldiers contract contagious dis
eases in their homes and else
where and carry them to the
camps.
We cannot make this campaign
a success without the fullest CO.
operation OF the united press and
its members in keeping constantly
before our soldiers and the public
the menace which promiscuous
coughing. sneezing, and splitting
offers.
am therefore making this APP
peal TO the public through the
Washington Times.

of common labor and the adjustment
benefits thousands of workers in Al

all classes of unskilled employees and
the increase means many hundred
of dollars monthly in the city indus
trial zone.
Women are receiving the same
pay as men, under the new schedule,
and there are opportunities for
many of them in the shops, yards
and on the tracks. The company is
preparing to employ more feminine
workers. it is stated, as the next

SENIOR SENATOR

Much to Stimulate Con-
sumption, Says Penrose

Washing ton, July 9.-In his Satur-
which has caused wide comment.
United States Senator Penrose did
not mince words in discussing some
shortcomings of the Wilson adminis-
tration. especially with reference to
| futile Investigations, commissions
and price fixing.
! We talk about the troubles of the
| Bolsheviki and the condition of the
Russian government" he said. 81
think that there is nothing more
ridiculous in any proposition pend
| ing in the Russian Duma than three
| fourths of the items in this agricul-
| tural bill in this great war crisis,
when every dollar of the taxpayers
money, borrowed or taken from him
| in taxes, should be applied to strict
! ly war purposes.
The city of Philadelphia, the
third city in the country, has been
notified by the Treasury Department,
| through its securities corporation,
/ that that great municipality shall
not be permitted to go on with GER
tain improvements. Either the Sc
| CuIllltS Will llOl D6 llluOISSu VI
through priority orders and other
arbitrary powers of these autocratic
! minions that have been set up over
! us in the last eight or nine months
/ they will be prevented from going
on with the work. The city has
spent thousands of dollars and the
people were anXiously awaiting for
| the development of a system of
| transportation which would solve
many of the problems confronting in
! the most acute form that great met
ropolitan center of nearly 100000
people; and yet they are held up and
unable to go on with those improve
ments while the Senator from Texas
is anxious to encourage the Depart
ment of Agriculture to squander mil
lions in the investigation of all kinds
of insects and Vermin.
IT consider and | say it advisedly,
we are fighting this whole war upon
false economic principles. There has
been in my opinion no necessity for
all these autocratic authorities, chief
ly held by upstarts absolutely ignor-
ant of the duties confided to them,
and even ostensibly selected because
they knew nothing of the duties con-
fided to them, and on the theory that
from their very ignorance they would
be unprejudiced. These men have
heen administering food control and
fuel control and control in scores of
directions which rapidly are becom-
ing Il scandal in the United States
and are doing more to stimulate con-
sumption and to curtail production
than any other method that could be
devised
Price fixing, Mr.. President, inter !
feres with the fundamental laws of
supply and demand and is the most
vicious demand that the government
has INDUCED in. Low prices curtail !
production and stimulate consump-
ton, and then to restrict consump- |
ton we have these Hoover boards
and Garfield boards with appropria- !
tions running into the tens and twen- |
ties and fifty million dollars to keep
people from consuming"

TRY MAGNESIA FOR
STOMACH TRUBLE
II NeutraIiIes stomach Acidity, Pre-
vents Food Fermentation, sour,
Classy stomach and Acid
Indigestion.

Doubtless if you are a sufferer from
Indigestion, you have already tried
pepsin bismuth, soda. charcoal, drugs
and various digestive aids and you
know these things will not cure your
trouble - in some cases do not even
give relief.
: But before giving up hope and de-
Gliding you are a chronic dyspeptic
lust try the effect of little bisurated
magnesia not the ordinary COM
mercial carbonate, citrate. oxide or
milk, but the pure bisurated mag
nesia which you can obtain from
pfac ctically any druggist in either
powdered or tablet form.
Take a teaspoontul of the powder or
two compressed tablets with a little
water after your next meal, and see
what a difference this makes. 1t will
instantly neutraliZe the dangerous
harmful acid in the stomach which
now causes your food to ferment and
sour, making gas, wind, flatulence
heartburn and the bloated or heavy
lumpy feeling that seems to follow
most every thing you eat.
You Will find that provided YOU
take a little bisurated magnesia inn
mediately after a meal YOU can eat
almost anything and enjoy it with
out any danger of pain or discomfort
to follow and moreover. the contin-
ued use of the bisurated magnesia
cannot injure the stomach in any
way so long as there are any symp-
toms of acid indigestion.

Every Man Up to so Must
Aid, Says Sec. Daniels

New York, July 8. One million
men in France and ten million more if
they are needed, and every man up to
so years of age serving his country
this was the limit set for the war by
Secretary of the Navy Daniels in Car
negie Hall last night, in speech
which opened the campaign of the
Young Mems Christian Association
for 1000 "Y" secretaries.
The heartiest cheers came from
the three front rows, where sat $50
men, the fruit of the first days re-
cruiting.
IF we can't win this war with a
draft age of 81 years, We'll raise il to
61," said Secretary Daniels. "The draft
law was passed to give working
basis upon which to select an Army.
1t has worked well and we have rais-
ed an enormous Army, and we can
raise a larger one by the terms of that
law. If the men under 81 cannot win
this war there is no law of the Medes
and Persians by which we cannot
raise the age limit"

VIGOR OF LODGE
MEN IN WAR SEEN
IN SESSION HERE
Modern Woodmen of Amer
lea Furnish $4,000 Men
For Service

The tremendous vigor with which
great national fraternal orders are
getting behind Uncle Sam in the
world war. was graphically shown
in Harrisburg to-day at the first an
nual convention and school of in
struction of the Pennsylvania Asso-
citation, Modern Woodmen of Amer
lea. After Mayor Keister extended
the convention at its Headquarters
in the Bolton House, a welcome to
the city, Chairman ]. w. Babcock,
OF Bradford, introduced State Deputy
Head Consul NJ. H. Wyckoff, of
Pittsburgh, who gave the brief. ex-
traordinary facts of what this order
is doing in war times.
Thus far, the Woodmen of Amer
lea have furnished $4,000 men for
Uncle Sans service, of whom 142
have been disabled and to these the
order has paid a total of $4,000.
by great industry in canvassing on
the part of the deputies the Wood
men now number over 1 100000 in
this country and Canada, so that
there are now 250.000 more men
eligible in the draft and at least 50,-
600 of these are expected to be
shortly summoned.
Immediately at the start of Amer
ica's taking part in the war the Chi
cago council proposed an additional
assessment on each member to pro-
vide fund for soldier members
and this fund has now reached the
total of $2.000,000. "Our slogan" 8"
reminded Consul Wyckoff lis repre-
sentative in government and promo
tion of peace by sustaining war to
obtain Justice and liberty for ALL"
War Detains Many
The gathering was not complete
to-day, for many deputies have been
detained through war duties. This
however did not dampen the enthu-
siasm and Mayor Keister together
with State Medical Director DIR. Sam
uel f. Hassler, have arranged an
elaborate program of entertainment
for the deputies which includes a
boat ride on the Susquehanna to-
night and motor trip over this
beautiful city" as Mayor Keister
put it.
The patriotic features of the order
were brought out vividly by DR..
Floyd Frederics. Sellersville, who
spoke on why | Am Proud to Be
At the Head of the Pennsylvania
Woodmen.' He characterized the
setting aside of 100000 patriotic
fund as the "grandest act of any fra
ternity in the history of America"
NO Grass on Busy Streets"
Chairman Babcock called on Dis
trict Deputy l. w. Eaches, Reading,
for talk on methods of getting
members, calling attention to the
star canvasser's bald head, caused
partly by his persistent industry in
the work. Mr.. Eaches had plenty of
company and the chairman admitted
that you never see grass growing on
a busy street" A point emphasized
time and again in the convention was
that liquor dealers, bartenders and
even a man who owns stock in a
brewery may not be a Woodman. If
this information is discovered the
offender is Immediately put out of
the order. The Woodmen will close
their session tomorrow afternoon.

F BACK HURTS
 BEGIN. ON SALTS
Flush the Kidneys at once when Back achy or Bladder bothers-Meat
 forms uric acid.

No man or woman who eats meat regu- larly can make mistake by flushing the kidneys occasionally, says well- known authority. Meat forms uric acid which clogs the kidney pores so they sluggishly filter or strain only part of the waste and poisons from the blood, then you get sick. Nearly all rheuna4 tism, headaches, liver trouble, nervous ness, constipation, dizziness, sleeplessnesss bladder disorders come from sluggish kid- neys.
 The moment you feel dnll ache in the kidneys or your back hurts, or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sedi- ment, irregular of passage or attended by sensation of scalding, get about four ounces of lad Salts from any reliable pharmacy and take tablespoonful iA glass of water before breakfast for a. few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com bined with lithia and has been used for generations to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to activity, also to neu- traIize the acids in urine so it no longer causes irritation, thus ending bladder dis orders.
 lad Salts is inexpensive and can-- not injure; makes a delightful effer- vescent Whitewater drink which all reg nlar meat eaters should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and thev blood pure, thereby avoiding serious kid~ aey complications
