Get q small package of Hamburg
tablespoonful Of the tea, put a cup of
boiling water upon it, pour through a

1t is the most effective way to break
a cold and cure grip, as it opens the

Also loosans the bowels, thus breaking

II must be committee representing
all diversified interests, and able sue
cessfully to appeal to each one OF these
interests on behalf of the great enter
prise.
Another committee of high legal at
tainmcnt should take under ,considera
ton the advisability of conducting the
exposition in the form of a corporation.
or limited partnership, or as a mu-
nicipal enterprise.
Chicago had over 10000 subscribers
to the success Of the exposition OF 1898.
Paris Built Bridges
The idea of erecting permanent build
ings as part of the exposition is not
new one. Two Of the most beautiful
bridges across the Seine in Paris today
were built az part " the Paris Ex-
Ici'tion of 1900. One bridge alone cost
nearly 81 100000. Paris did not
scruple to take the opportunity OF
beautifying herself and Philadelphia
should do the same.
1t is scarcely to be expected. how
ever, that funds appropriated by the
national government could in any way
be utilized for permanent improve
ments. They would be devoted to the
erection Of temporary buildings, and the
necessary expenses connected with the
arrangement of the grounds and water
ways.
The same may be regarded rs true
regarding any appropriation that might
be made by the Pennsylvania LcgiSla-
ture. All appropriations to the expo
sition fund of such character are for
general and not specific purposes. In

the case of the national government
this is particularly true.
The sesquicentennial authorities.
however, should not depend entirely
upon the sources named for funds to
get the enterprise going.
In this age of the world 1t should be
possible for some inventive genius to
suggest popular way Of raising addi Z.
tional money. There is no doubt that
when an organization is perfected a
variety of schemes will he proposed that
will add large sums to the general fund.
OF one thing there can be assurance,
and it. is that tho number of exhibit
tors, il universal or worlds cxpoSi-
ton is decided upon, will exceed in
number that of any previous exhibit
in the worlds history.
The Chicago exposition had the larg-
est attendance in the history of world 3
fairs. 1t started out with a guarantee
OF $40, 100000
Whatever Philadelphia may do,
whatever from its scsQuiccntennial
may assume. it will be- undoubtedly the
work of its managing committees to
make il the greatest event of its kind
In the worlds history.

AID OF WOMEN NEEDED
FOR SESQUICEN7ENNZAL
Proposed Erpostions Finance Committee Should Be Con
posed of Those Who Can Enlist Support Of
National Government
BY GEORGE NOX McCAIN

The Centennial Exposition of 1876
may well serve as a guide in many re
Spects to the Scsquiccntennial of 1926.
In the matter of initial Impulse. the
project Of 1926 has a full years start
over that of 1876, the first great Amer
lean world exposition TO focus the eyes
of the nation upon Philadelphia.
The first step taken after the decision
to hold the centennial was in the matter
OF hnanCc. Vast Sims of money were
requisite to make the exposition sue
cess. The initial movement. therefore.
was in the direction of raising money.
Philadelphia settled the details very
quickly. and 50 left more time for the
work NJ obstruction.
In iN12, four years before the open
inC of the centennial. Philadelphia had
committees at work ali ovrr tho coun
try soliciting contributions. II was II
new aud untri"d idea. For that reason
they did not meet with much success
outside the city and state.
The first large subscription was
81 900 Geo from the state. This was fol-
lowed by $500 900 from the city itself.
Tn" present Memorial Hall in Fair
mount Park represents the expenditure
of this half million. 1t was stipulated
that this sum should be put in a per
mancnt building - commemorate the
great event,
Later on Philadelphia gave 81 600 900
more. A few months after the Cxposi
tiOn opened the United States Govern

Woman should have large share in
tho work. They should be fully rccog

The power to enforce national
prohibition is given both to the state
and the nation said Mr.. Wheeler.
ut is up to the people to see TO it that
federal and state officers do their
duty in sustaining and enforcing. the
amendment. Local and state officers
who are trying to evade responsibility
IN the enforcement OF national pro-
