"r We Got Good Press.
It was not only to the delegates
and the visitors we were able to put
our case, but in many interviews dur
ing the Conference to the representa-
tives of many important newspapers
in many countries. One of the first
of them was an American, a personal
friend 0fPadraic Columns. Again and
again they came to us eager for news
for hints on what is going to hap
pen in Ireland most of all. And we
weren't tongue-tied. Whatever the
Press of England may be, the Press
of the world was eminently friendly.
In all, there were 250 representatives
of the Press of all countries, from
Japan to North and South America,
and from Greece to Norway and Swe-
den, with all Europe in between. The
European Press, and even the agen-
cies proved rather better to Us than
might have been expected, and we
found ourselves figuring as prominent

only thirty cents a piece. Single bed
stuff seems to be the demand. Gilt
picture frames were plenty and some
wonderful bargains developed at
the rates of 75 cents to $500. Auc-
tioneer Fry made big play for AL

pedestal representing that historic
character of the Juniata river which
had been displayed in the window.
The day was so crowded and fast
that several women tainted and one
woman collapsed so completely that
a cab was called to get her home.
There was a continued sale in books
and Miss Constance Ferriday, at this
booth, had the good luck to buy in a
complete set of Dumas: no not conf

pages had not been cut. IT was
amazed to see what good taste Har-
risburg has in selecting books" she
remarked. They wanted the best"
The prices were reasonable, rum
ming from 25 cents for new books
down to Is cents for secondhand
ones. A history of the world in four
volumes brought S1.00. The man
who bought a fine old Chickering
piano for five dollars decided it was
not worth while but he pledged him
self to pay the five anyway and let II
go for drayage. Foreigners bought
all the old-fashioned organs, and
the half dozen sent in went in Jig

got his eye on a historic ship
clock" of the date 1850, beautifully
ornate, and nobody else was in the
running. Two China blue rabbits
caused a mild panic, for the color
is very rare. Bidding was fierce on
an antique bright blue and white
bowl, aged 100 years, and three
handmade rugs gave the auctioneer
the chance of his life. These were
contributed by Mrs. Joseph Nissley,
of Middletown, a woman of IS, who
wove them most artistically and sub
stantially. Much chatting resulted
from the appearance of two gor-
geous evening gowns sent in by social
leaders of the city, one of black vel

satin with "opalescent trimmings"

Another popular offering was a
wonderful gilt screen sent by Mrs.

TELLS DYSPEPTICS
WHAT TO TAE
Avoid Indigestion, Sour Acid Stomach,
Heartburn, Gas On Stomach, Etc.

Es
Heartburn. Gas On stomach, Etc.
Indigestion and practically all
forms of stomach trouble. say medi-
cal authorities, are due nine times
out of ten to an excess OF hydro
chloric acid in the stomach. Chronic
'acid stomach" is exceedingly danger
Gus and sufferers should do either
one of two thiuEs.
Either they can go on a limited and
often disagreeable diet, avoiding
foods that disagree with them, that
trritate the stomach and lead to ex-
cess acid secretion or they can eat
as they please in reason and make 1t
q practice to counteract the effect of
the harmful acid and prevent the for
nation of gas. sourness or premature
fermentation by the use of a little
Bisurated Magnesia at their meals.
There is probably no better. safer
or more reliable stomach antiacid
than Bisurated Magnesia and it Is
widely used for this purpose. 1t has
no direct action on the stomach and
is not a digestent. But a teaspoonful
OF the powder or a couple of Ave grain
tablets taken in little water with
the food will neutralize the excess
acidity which may be present and
prevent its further formation. This
removes the whole cause of the
trouble and the meal digests natur-
ally and healthfully without need of
pepsin pills or artificial digestents.
Get few ounces of Bisurated Mag
nesia from any reliable druggist. ASK
for either powder or tablet. 1t
never comes as liquid. milk or
citrate and in the bisurated form is
not laxative. Try this plan and
eat what you want at your next meal
and see IL this isn't the best advice

PRESIDENT KEEPS
EYE ON NATIONS
AFFAIRS IN PARIS
Wilson Giving Serious Consideration to Calling of Extra
Session of Congress; Advisers Believe the Lawmakers
Should Get Together Not Later Than June

The fact that the United States
transport George Washington has
been ordered to proceed to Brest has
given rise to the suggestion that 1t
was the situation at home, rather
than in Europe. which might re-
quire the early return of President
Wilson to America. But, according
to the views of those in the conf
dence of the President. his physical
presence in Washington is not es-
sential to the meeting of Congress.
President Wilson attended the
morning and afternoon sessions OF
the council yesterday. The council
had under consideration the re-
naming details of the Sarre settle
ment and the Rhine frontier. There
were reports that the Italians were
disposed to accept the plan for the
Adriatic settlement, which had not
previously been satisfactory to them.
Should this compromise be effected
it would remove one of the last
large obsta cles to the conclusion of
the treaty, though many lesser sub
jects still remain open.

By Associated Press.

Paris, April 11.-While the ses-
sions of the Council of Four are oc-
cupying the chief attention of Presi-
dent Wilson yet, those close to the
President say that he is giving seri-
Gus consideration to the condition
of public affairs in the United States,
particularly the necessity for the
early calling of an extra session of
Congress.
1t is known that some of the
Presidents advisers are of the opin-
ion that call should be issued at
a very early day, so as to permit the
new Congress to assemble in perfect
OF gar ization by June l and complete
the appropriation bills before the
en1 of the fiscal year.
Several new factors have recently
entered into the consideration of
this subject here. One is the de-
parture of the military committee of
the new Congress for Europe, and it
is foreseen that the committee can
not get back much before June.

ciples included the adjustment of
wages to living costs and to various
classes of employment.
In the first general wage advance
made by the railroad administration
following the recommendations of
the railroad wage commission ap-
proXimately $40O. 100000 a year was
distributed among railroad en-
ployes. About s140,000,000 of this
went to trainmen and enginem en-
and about $3.50, 100000 to other en-
ployes. On supplemental orders
about s150.000.000 was added to
payrolls of the shopmen. about the
same to maintenance of way men
and clerks and about 45,000,00O to
telegraphers and station agents.
Railway accountants calculated
that in 1916 and 1917, the years inn
mediately preceding Government
control, the railway companies in
creased wages $3.50. 100000. With
the sS22,000,000 added by the rail-
road administration, the aggregate
advance of railroad mems wages in
three years is set at approximately
SLIP, 100000, or about $3.50 per
man. The railroad payroll in 1917
was calculated at $1,750,000, 900, in
1918 at $2,538,00O,000 and this year
at $2,S22,000,000.
Comparatively small increases in
pay are expected soon for dining car
and sleeping car employees.
Hines Explains Situation
Director Hines in an analysis of
the wage situation explained that the
end of last year railroad employees
wages had been raised to a rate
which would have added 1854, 900
to the aggregate railroad payroll IL it
had been effective throughout the
entire year. He added to this the
sum of s67,500,0 900 to cover increases
for the brotherhood men in the or
der to-day and for dining car, sleep
ing car and police employees. The ag-
gregate for the latter three classes
Is estimated at about s2,500.000.
leaving approximately s65, 900
for the brotherhood men.
The actual payment under increas-
ed wage orders last year was $685.
900, 900, according to Mr.. Hines call
culation. Railroad companies esti-
mate the wage increases at nearly
500, 100000 more than the railroad
Railroad accountants calculate
that about $1,000 600 a year will
be forthcoming from the rate in
creases last year. The railroad ad-
figures to-day on wage
additions indicates that more than
so per cent. OF this is eaten up in
wages.
Discussing the effect of wages on
operating costs this year. Mr.. Hines
said in making public the order that
through the elimination of over
time which will be unnecessary un-
der peace conditions and through
ability to regain experienced en-
ployes who were lost during the war,
the total increase in wages would be
less on the same volume
OF business than the foregoing based
on the calendar year 1918 would in
dicate. and of course, the increase
will be less If the volume of business
is less.
