DR. FOX AND MR. BEAR-PARTL

DIR. FOX AND MIR. BEAR-PARTI /.
Doctor Fox was walking through the
woods one day, thinking how poor busi-
ness was for him. When he came to the
house of Mr.. Bear, DR.. Fox noticed that
the blinds were not open, SO he stopped
and knocked at the door in hopes that
MIR. Bear might feel a little under the
weather and need his services.
But Mr.. Bear was just getting up;
he had oversight
Il don't see how | happened to sleep
SO late this morning" he said as he opened
the blinds and let in the morning sun
light
Dr. Fox shook his head "That looks
bad, Mr.. Bear" he said; ''if you were
quite well you would not have over
slept Let me look at your tongue
''But | am well, said Mr.. Bear; 81
never felt better in my life, DIR. Fox:
| am taking the best care of myself and
eat only vegetables"
"Ah, as | thought" said DR.. Fox,
looking very wise; "your tongue looks
very bad, very bad indeed, Mr.. Bear.
"And what did you say about vege-
tables? Do you never eat a fat pig or
duck or chicken2"
mo" replied Mr.. Bear, II am on a
vegetable diet and never was so well
all my life"

Food Arbiters Revise
Noon Beef-Meal Rule

Philadelphia, July 26 - The noon
oeel-meal order, which allowed only
one form of beef to be served at that
meal each day, has been suspended
by order of the food administration
and in its place has come a ruling
allowing beef to be served in any
form at the noon meal. This is the
most recent oct of the food admins
tration, and constitutes a revision of
the beef order which has held for
some time.
Beef now may be served by any
hotel, restaurant, club or public eat
ing place in any form at the MONDAY
meal each day, but at no other meal
Under the previous order, a restau-
rant might serve boiled beef at noon,
but If it dod so, it could not serve
roast beef or beefsteak. II beef
steak were served. boiled beef or
roast beef could not be served. Now
beef can be served in all these forms,
but If it did so, it coulr not serve
products of beef-oxtails, liver, heart.
barreled or canned cornbeef, kidneys,
brains, tripe and beef trimmings
also ved1, lamb, mutton and pork,
may be served at any time and with

MADAME LEI BRUN
ENLIVENS MALVY
TREASON TRIAL
Woman Who Makes Is Trips
Into Enemy Country on
Stand in Paris

Paris, July 26.-The trial of Louis
]. Malvy former minister of the in
terror. which had become an inter-
minable squabble among the off,
cials of the prefecture, the police
and the detective service relative to
responsibility for certain acts done
or left undone, woke into new life
yesterday when Madame lie Brun
took the stand.
She testified she had made thir-
teen trips to Germany, where she
had been entrusted with missions in
France, although she was really in
the service of the French general
headquarters
+ "A German lieutenant" the wit
ness said, told me we have in the
French government a person who
has belonged to us for many years
When l reported this in France l
was told that 1t was useless to search
for further information in this mat
ter, but on my next trip to Ger
many / asked the name of this per-
son and the German officer replied
he is too highly placed. l fear too
much for you and him.
The witness said that on return
ing to France she had two female
spies watched and arrested. One
of them told her, she said. that she
had permit to travel from Pascal
Ceccaldi radical Socialist deputy,
who had said to her, keep silent.
Make yourself forgotten"
"I knew" added the witness, of
the relations between M. Ceccaldi
and M. Caillaux. 1 asked permission
to return to Germany to elucidate
this affair, but my chief, Colonel
Zopf, refused, saying l would only
get shot, as l had only one chance
in a hundred of returning. l in
sisted upon going, but Colonel Zopf
persisted in his refusal to permit
it."
The witness was certain it was
Deputy Ceccaldi mentioned by the
female spy. She said
Il was summoned for the court
martial at Marseilles, where M.
Ceccaldi asked me how much 1 got
for defaming him. He commenced
legal action against me-"
Public Prosecutor Merrilon closed
the incident by saying it was an
other Ceccaldi and not the deputy.
Colonel Zopf was recalled to the
stand and said Madame lie Brun had
been loyal and devoted agent and
that some clumsy mistakes had been
prevented by her being sent to Ger
many where she might have been
shot. He corroborated her testi-
mony in that she expressed regret
at not being allowed to return to
Germany.

MOB STORMS BAR
KEPT OPEN WHILE
SOLDIERS DEPART
Unpatriotic Proprietor of Ho-
tel at Clarion Escapes Coat
of Tar and Feathers

Clarion, Pa. July 26.-Several
including some of the drafted men
who went to camp this morning, en-
tered the barroom and office of the
Jones House, the largest hotel of
this town, last night and demolished
the fixtures, glassware and mirrors,
doing damage to the extent of about
$4,000.
William Mohney, proprietor of the
motel, escaped a coat of tar and
feathers and a ride out of town on a
rail by leaving the hotel, going, it
was discovered this morning, to the
home of brother-in-law.
One hundred and four Clarion
draft men left here yesterday morn
ing for camp. The local draft board
asked the business places and bar
rooms to close for few hours while
the soldier boys were being given
the proper farewell.
All the barrooms closed with the
exception of Mohney's. Because of
this disrespect for the soldiers and
flag the citizens expressed their
sentiment. Bricks and stones were
used to demolish things. A hose was
stretcheo TO a nre hydrant and Office
and barroom thoroughly drenched.
When contingent of soldiers left
three weeks ago Mohney refused to
close his bar. On THAT day he is
said to have taken in 1886. A
drunken boy came from this bar
room, and when admonished by his
mother because of his condition,
slapped her on the face and said,
"Oh, go to h, mother!"
The crowd that demolished the
barroom was thorough in it's work,
there being none of the usual ex-
citement that goes with mob rule.

An interesting account of the end
ing of the first days doings at the
convention of the Pennsylvania Re-
tail Clothiers' Association and the
Mems Apparel Club was that chron-
icled in Wednesdays edition of the
Johnstown Daily Democrat.
The item is one of local interest
due to the fact that the main feature
of the story centered around George
Pritchard, of the Doutrich store, of
this city.
THE evening"" to quote the
Democrat, was one round of music
and fun. The statement that the
Mems Apparel Club would. put pep
into the convention of the clothiers
was more than substantiated. George
Pritchard wore the usual Doutrich
smile, which has made one brand of
hats famous, and his voice was never
in better condition. Known among
his friends as the song bird of Har-
risburg, he was called upon to take
leading parts time and time again."

Revenue Raisers at
Washington Are Busy

Washington, July 26.-The Ways
and Means Committee of the House
has devoted much time to the con-
sideration of the war profit section
of the proposed new revenue meas
ure. Chairman Kitchin announced
that the committee has tentatively
agreed upon a specific exemption of
$4,000 plus 10 per cent. on invested
capital.
These four plans of levying the
excess profits were thoroughly dis
cussed, Mr.. Kitchin said, with ma.
jority sentiment seemingly favoring
the third

10 per cent, Qt was estimated by
the statistician that this rate would

(2) Forty per cent. on all net in
come in excess of exemption of 10
per cent. and not in excess of 20 per

in excess of 20 per cent. (This would
yield s1,750, ,O00,0O0.)

centum of profits for the best four

The four proposals were given out
by Mr.. Kitchin as having been dis
cussed thoroughly by the committee.
He said that it must not be under
stood that the committee had agreed
upon any rate, but that majority SEN
timent seemed to favor the third
plan.

Red Cross Pledges
Must Be Paid Here

Contributions to the SeconA Red
Cross War Fund mistakenly have been
sent to the national headquarters at
Washington, according to the state
ment made at local headquarters of
the organization this morning by
Mrs. Lyman d. Gilbert, chairman of
the chapter. It appears that pay
ments sent to the national headquar-
fers must be returned by them to
the Pennsylvania Delaware Division
Headquarters at Philadelphia, and
then to the headquarters of the Har-
risburg Chapter. To eliminate this
useless red tape, Mrs. Gilbert suggest-
ed that the remittance be made direct
to the local chapter. Her statement
follows:
'It is very important that all pay
ments on the Second War Fund CAM
paign pledges be paid at the Harris
burg Red Cross Headquarters A
number of these remittances have
been forwarded to Washington direct.
which necessitates their being return
ed to us and makes double expenditure
of time and postage.

New York Candidates
Fear Hearst Support

New York, July 28.-The support
of william r. Hearst in the Guber-
material campaign this year is not
wanted by any of the candidates now
in the race. That was made very
plain yesterday by the campaign
managers of Governor Charles S.
whitman, by friends of Alfred e.
Smith, the Democratic designee; by
the managers of the Merton e.
Lewis campaign. and by William
Church Osborn, who is seeking the
Democratic nomination on an anti
Hearst platform. In the opinion of
the campaign managers of both par
ties. the worst thing that could hap
pen to their particular candidate
would be to have the Hearst indorse-
ment.
