Highway Department as dangerous
places on main highways have been
made by the Public Service Com
mission, cost of elimination being
in each case. These
complaints are included in a series
filed by the State authorities as the
result of study OF conditions ex-
tending over many months and the
locations are on roads which are
much travelled and which it is in
tended to improve.
The Pennsylvania railroad is or
dered to bridge a crossing near

problems sattending complaints against
some OF the places where railroads
ana highways meet. One of the rea-
sons advanced is that complaints
whose disposition was laid aside be-
cause of the war are now being
taken up. while another is that the
state Highway Department has list
ed dangerous places on highways
which are the most travelled and is
proceeding Systematically.
In the last month orders for abol-
ltion of nearly dozen crossings
have been issued. everyone of them
on main highways. orders being is
sued apportioning the cost between
the railroads, the State. the inter-
ested counties and townships. A
number of additional orders will
probably be issued before the end of
summer as inquiries are under way.
The Legislature has been asked for
a considerable sum 10 meet the
States share of abolishing crossings
as there will be an increased de-
mand the next two years. In the
case of the railroads arrangements
have been made with federal au-
thoritfes to have the cost charged
TO capital account so that there will
be no delay in starting work
Np SAoiHtS-I he
Compensation Board is arranging to
take up with federal authorities
numerous claims for workmens S
compensation as soon as the treaty
of peace with Austria Hungary is
announced. These claims have been
accumulating and cover a Oxen or
more lines of industry with several
points in question. Owing to the
war the interests OF the claimants
has been in the hands of the alien
property custodian.
Investigation On-Inspectors and
engineers of the State Department
of Health are investigating water
and smallpox conditions in Allie
gheny county. Half a dozen are
now at work.

most diabolical way.
Taken From Families
Hundreds of girls were torn from
the other members of their family
and taken none knows where by the
Turks, Kurds or Circassians. Scores
were compelled to live in captivity
naked for months ard suffering from
sunblisters and beatings. Armenian
girls who escaped death were barter
ed like cattle. After their fathers or
relatives had vainly paid ransom for
them Some saw their fathers or
friends murdered. In the tents of
the Arabs in the Syrian desert many
were bouE,i and forcibly tatooed on
the forehead, lips and chin to mark
them as Moslem women.
Generally. the stories indicate that
the captives were moved sometimes
in large groups from Armenia south
ward toward the desert of syria,
The stories told by at least three
Armenian Christian girls deal with
the movement of one of thess great
groups consisting of 1000 families
or 5 1000 persons. Ora story of this
awful journey into the desert was
told by Takouhi Guezekuchuktan,
girl of eighteen who with her ratner.
mother, four sisters and brother
was deported from Hadjin. in Adana
province, in May. 1915. They were
moved southwark to Aleppo and
thence further on toward the Syrian
desert until the party numbered
about 1000 families. At Sivaria, she
said. they were told that on payment
of 5000 Turkish liras they would be
allowed tO return,
THE refugees said they could not
give this amount" the Armenian told
DR.. Kennedy. Then the Circass'ans
of the tribe of ChecheEs who had
control of them separated out 1,100
of the poorer families and took them
away. The same evening some of
these people returned and said they
had escaped and that four hours
after they left. the Chechens had
begun to kill them with iron-studded
clubs.

The reason Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound is so successful
in overcoming woman's ills is because
it contains the tonic, strengthening
properties of good old fashioned roots
and herbs, which act on the female
organism. Women from all parts of
the country are continually testifying
to its strengthening, curative infu-
ence, and the letters which we are
constantly publishing from women in
every section of this country prove be-
yond question the merit of this fa-
nous root and herb medicine.
