Walter d. Hines bad been appointed
assistant director general of rail-
roads. He previously was assistant
to the director general.
The first act of the director general
in executing this new policy was the
removal of c. w. Huntington, pres
ldent of the Virginia Railway, as
chief operating officer, on the charge
that he failed to carry out prompt
ly the railroad administrations in
structionS regarding the repair and
maintenance of his line. This was
thought to be the forerunner of SINH
lar dispositions of a number of other
railroad presidents, but announce
ment of the plan for wholesale re-
placement of railway presidents by
Federal directors came as a general
surprise at this time.
1t was explained last night that a
large proportion of present railway
presidents will be named to manage
their own properties, particularly
whenever the president actually is
the most active operating officer, but
in all these cases the presidents will
be required to resign their official
positions with the companies, land
to become exclusive representatives
of the United States Railroad Admin
istration."
Consequently their salaries will be
paid by the government. and they
can receive no pay from the railway
corporations. AS an indication OF
what salaries they may expect, it be-
came known last night that most of
Mr. McAdoo's principal assistants OF
the railroad administration will re-
ceive more than $4,000 a year. For
most of them, this is much less than
they received as officers or executives
of railroads under private manage
ment. In this connection, it was
noted that Mr.. McAdoo, as Secretary
fthe Treasury, receives the usual
cabinet members salary of $12, 900
year, and is paid nothing as di-
rector general of the railroads.
Colonel NJ. c. Kennedy, president
of the Cumberland Valley Railroad
Copanym, now in Europe as a deputy
director of transportation in the war
zone. is among those affected by this
order.

How would you like to be a dentist
to an elephant Next to being an ele-
phant who is badly in need of a dem
tist there is said to be nothing more
exciting. Unlike the requirements of
those gentlemen who cater to the
aches and ills of human beings, the
pachyderm operator requires no great
knowledge of jaw surgery. If he be
one with strong right arm, indomit-
able courage and a supply of cast iron
instruments, he need never bother his
head about the State Board of Dental
Examiners. George Denman is such
a man. Therefore he is the keeper
of the block. tackle and drilling ma
chinery with the Ringing Brothers
Circus due to arrive here, elephants
and all, Tuesday, June II.
In examining cavernous mouths for
possible ills, Denman uses a big hand
mirror and a 500-watt incandescent
globe attached to a wire which leads
from one of the circus dynamo
wagons. Now and then he has actu-
ally filled a cavity with cement, but
extraction is the more popular man

ner of relieving a patient in pain. In
performing this operation Denman
scorns the forcep methods. His treat
ment is merely an evolution of the
good old-fashioned scheme taught by
our grandmothers, whereby one end
of a string is fastened about the OBJ
jectionable tooth and the other end
tied to fiat iron. The evolution con-
sists of using a strand of cable in lieu
of twine and couple of husky as
sistants to yank the same. When the
free end of the strand has been prop
erly attached to the "snag," Denman
gives a signal with his incandescent
lamp much after the fashion of a
brakeman waving lantern, the pull
ers pull, the Doc" lodges and the
tooth flies through the air.
1t, is said the Ringing Brothers
elephants excel as entertainers this
year, executing feats never before
attempted. Three great bands of them
appear in the main tent Immediately
after the curtain has fallen on the
last scene of I'm Days of Old" the
gorgeous spectacle of romance and
chivalry which is the big feature of
the circus program.

Another Chainworker
Endorses TOnan as the
OnIyMedicine Which
Gave Him Relief

"It is indeed marvellous how good
feel since taking Tonall," says Paul
f. Simmons, of 623 State street,
York Pa. My duties as chain
welder required a steady nerve. My
nervous system began to swag and
was becoming restless and had
that don't care feeling, due. as the
doctors said, to excessive amount of
acid, in my stomach.
l had used several different kinds
of medicine. Some of them helped
as long as l was taking them, but
as soon as / stopped, 1 felt even
worse than before. Tonall was rec
commended so highly to me that
at once commenced taking it. To
my great satisfaction, is has proven
to me to be the best Tonic and Sys-
tenn Builder 1 have ever used. I
feel altogether like a different man
in every respect"
Tonall is sold at Gorgass Drug
Store, Harrisburg, where it's merits
will be explained by the Tonan
chemist, and also at Hershey's Drug
Store, Hershey, Pa.

Hasty Breakfast
Brings Faintness
Some Food Facts That
Everybody Ought
to Know

The food we eat is like the fuel
that is fed to an engine. When dur
ing the forenoon following a hasty
breakfast of toast and coffee you
feel faint and hungry it is your body
crying out for fuel.
Many people who are under
weight, thin, pale and run down, are
actually starving to death because
they do not get the proper amount
of nourishment from the food they
eat. Such people can gain weight
only by taking food that is easily
absorbed by the system and such
a food tonic is Father Johns Medi-
cine which has tremendous food
value.
Scientific tests by expert chemists
prove that Father Johns Medicine
is six times more pourishing than
pure milk and many times more
valuable as flesh building food than
many of the common articles of
diet. Crowded with nourishment
and absolutely free from danger
Gus drugs and alcohol Father Johns
Medicine is recognized as the safest
tonic flesh builder and tonic food for
all the family.
Get a bottle to-day, take it after
meals and at bedtime and you will
find yourself gaining flesh and
strength steadily.

Thunderstorm Cause
of Much Inconvenience

Damage occasioned by the thun-
der and lightning storm which broke
over the city late yesterday after
noon may amount to several hun
dred dollars, it is thought. Traffic
on the Steelton, Hummelstown and
Middletown line and several lines of
the Valley Railways Company, was
delayed for time. The home of
Mrs. David Shenk, High street,
Hummelstown, was struck by light
ming. A huge buttonwood tree on
the Musser farm near Camp Hill
was struck by lightning. In Middle
town a number of trees were torn
down by the wind and numerous
wires were also torn down.
A peculiar freak of the storm
manifested itself in Penbrook,
where a huge whirlwind formed and
picked up column of dust which it
whirled across the town.
