CRAZY WATER
DISCUSSED IN
RECENT BOOK
Crystals Include Nineteen
Elements, According to
Dr.. w. {. Fitch.

An analysis and opinion of Crazy
Water Crystals has been given by
Dr. w. E. Fitch in his recent book,
Mineral Waters of the United
States and American Spas"
He says:
Unlike EPSON salts or clauber
salts, crazy water crystals is not a
plain salt. Chemical analysis shows
the predominating chemical consti-
tuent is sodium sulphate, but this
mineral in its natural state differs
greatly from artificial salts in its
effect on the body.
Moreover it is entirely different
from taking doses of salts. 1t is a
natural mineral water product, i'm
possible to duplicate in the labora-
tory.
In all there are nineteen chemi-
cal elements which compose the
whole of these crystals. After all
that science effects in determining
the component part of mineral wa
tiers it is experience alone that can
be fully relied upon to ascertain
their specific virtue in a given dis
ease
I'VE can not attribute to single
element, however dominant it ap-
pears in the analysis, all the cura-
tive properties of the water which
clinical experience reveals"
The local office for the sale of
these crystals is located at 142 North
Pennsylvania street.

OFFICIAL CITIES
BUSINESS BOOM
PennSy President Announces
Increased Service Brings
Gains.

More than 100000 in new bust
ness, a steady mounting volume of
traffic, and material economies in
operation, have resulted from the
recent introduction of collection ano
delivery service for less carload
freight on the Pennsylvania rail-
road, it is announced by President
w. w. Atterbury
Since its Inauguration in Deem
Der, this innovation is freight han
ding has become so popular that the
tonnage marked for collection and
delivery has more than quadrupled
in volume, and now represents APP
proximately 20 per cent of the
total less carload traffic moved by
the Pennsylvania.
Mr.. Atterbury stated:
In March we obtained 5000 tons
Of new merchandise freight in store
door Service business which before
had not moved on our rails. This
business brought in almost $4,000
in additional revenue. In the same
month we paid out for drayage in
the pick up and delivery service,
$5O,0OO"
Largely due to the introduction
of collection and delivery service,
which makes possible greater CEN
tralization of traffic in the larger
areas, the Pennsylvania railroad
since last December has increased
the average load for each car of
merchandise freight almost 40 per
cent. This substantial advance in
carloading efficiency means fewer
cars on the road for the amount of
business handled, with improved
schedules to shippers and reductions
in railroad operating expenses and
terminal charges.
