WEAK BLOOD is A
REAL BARRIER
Growing Children Often Need Guides
PeptO- Mangan.

Some children grow too quickly
it saps their strength. They lapse
into careless, desultory habits, or de-
velop a shrinking attitude. Their
faces look pinched.
The blood becomes overtaxed by
too rapid growth; and poisons from
the system take the place of strength
giving red corpuscles in the blood.
Red corpuscles are those little red
particles that swim in blood and give
it its color. Gradually that child
loses interest in its play.
Poor blood needs the building that
the iron in GUIDES Pepto-Mangan
gives to weakened blood. Guides
Pepto-M angan enriches the blood by
increasing the number of red corpus
Giles, and restores the blood by driv-
ing out the poisons. When the reviv-
ed blood gets to work, the appetite
becomes what az growing child's
should be. Your druggist has Guides
Pepto-Mangan in liquid or tablet
form. The name "Gude's Pepto-Man-
gan" is on every package-Adver-

TELEPHONE IMPROVEMENTS
CONTEMPLATED BY c. & p
All Lines Leading Into Oakland to Be
Assembled in Cables

Telephone improvements for Oak
land, Mountain Lake Park and Deer
Park and nearby sections have been
authorized by the executive commit
tee of the Chesapeake and Potomac
Telephone Company, and are being
started Immediately in order to pro-
vide individual service to all who de-
sire it. The work will cost $11,5OO.
The task involves the construction
Of new cable line from Oakland to
Mountain Lake Park, replacing !
pole line containing sixty wires. When
the work is completed, instead of the
immense, top-heavy line Of poles con-
tanning many crosse arms and wires,
there VIII be d single cable, which
looks Ike piece of lead pipe, an inch
or so thick. However, the cable will
contain as many wires as were strung
out on the cross-arms, and enough adj
ditional wires to take care of all the
demands for telephones that are pre-
scented in the neighborhood of Oak
land for many years to come. Esti-
meats already made by the engineers
and commercial men of the telephone
company indicate that between 1922
and 1926 there will be forty-two an
plicants for service. The improve
ments are intended to provide for
these and also for any other install
lations of telephone equipment that
are requested
To make the improvements it will
be necessary to place 67 poles and to
run 12,640 feet of cable. The cable
will replace practically 100000 feet of
open wire which now serves the sec
ton.
At present every telephone circuit
in the neighborhood of Oakland, Mt.
Lake Park and Loeb Lynn Heights is
in service land the conditions are such
that it is impossible to erect any adj
ditional wires on the poles. For this
reason many residents of the sections
who wanted individual lines have been
forced to accept party line service.
After the completion of the cable
line, the congestion will be relieved
to the extent that any party linesub-
scriber may have individual service
if he desires it, and in the future it
will not be necessary for the tele-
phone company to ask it's prospective
subscribers to take party line SER
vice. The work will be started about
the fifteenth of this month and will be
completed before the end of the year.
