HARDING TO TAKE
UP CONFERENCES
Republican Nominee to Re
sume Pacification Measures
on Return.
WASHINGTON, June 28—Party pecifl.
cation conferences will be resumed by
Senator Harding, the republican nomi
nee. on his return to Ills office tomorrow
morning from his week-end trip to :he
summer home of Senator Frelinghuyaen
at Raritan. N. J.
Several of these conferences are planned
by the senator, to be held before Satur
day. No engagements will be made for
that day as the senator and bis party
expect to leave Washington about 4
o’clock the afternoon for bis home In
Marlon/ O.
The senator will take with him his of
fice staff, stenographers and typists, and
his office files. The office fore* will be
located in Marlon until after the elections
in November.
Friends of the senator say that a con
certed movement la on In the west to
force a change In tbe republican pro
gram for a front porch campaign by the
presidential nominee.
There Is no Indication at present that
the program Is to be changed.
It has been indorsed unanimously by
the republican national committee, and
accords with the views of Senator Hard
ing.
Developments in the campaign may
make it advisable for Senator Harding
to make two or more important speeches
at great centers like Chicago and New
York, but a barn storming campaign is
not now thought likely.
Tbe pacification work will go on under
the personal direction of Senator Hard
ing after he leaves Washington.
He will Invite to his Marlon home for
peace conferences all republicans who
may continue to show signs of dissatis
faction and in heart-to-heart talks lino
them up behind the republican ticket.
All fear of a bolt or third party Is
fading rapidly before the pacification
work tbat is now going on, republican
leaders assert.

SNEEZE FEVER
CLAIMS MILLION
VICTIMS IN U.S.
Each Kerchoos on Average 76
Times a Day—Grand Total,
Three Billion.
SEASON SOON BEGINS
By FREDERIC J. HASKIN.
WASHINGTON, June 28.—The time for
the annual hay fever sneezefest is ap
proaching.
Togged In close-fitting goggles to pro
tect their eyes, with cotton filters in their
noses, and with lips tightly closed
against invading irritants, the old guard
of the hay fever fraternity are already
preparing to do battle with the flowers
that bloom in mid-summer and fall.
Os course they know that they will be
unsuccessful in their resolve not to
sneeze once x this year.
They know 'hat they will soon be say
ing, “Id’s a beandiful hording.” instead
of talking in their usual bell-like tones.
They even foresee that their eyes will
be puffed up like a frog’s, and their
noses will be red, and their faces in
general will suggest traces of violent
emotion.
But they prepare Jo suffer with the
dignity befitting one who Is afflicted
with an aristocratic ailment.
For the high character of hay fever Is
now universally acknowledged.
Doctors who have studied the disease
most carefully testify that it attacks
only the super-aesthetic.
Tt is a malady of distinction, and one
which you can well afford to cultivate.
If you don’t mind being thoroughly
miserable while displaying your supe
riority. ,
When har fever first became prevalent,
about the time of the civil war sufferers
went about sneezing, and weeping and
’ weighted down with a sense of appearing
ridiculous.
Hay fever was then a Joke and a mys
tery.
Now that science takes it seriously,
the million or more people who sneeze
at the mention of weeds are coming to
glory In the Men that thy are souls
apart, endowed with hypersensitive noses
and perilously high-strung nervous sys
tems. \
DOCTORS AGREE IT IS
ARISTOCRATIC AILMENT.
Some of the H. F. V.'s (which stands
for hay fever victims) claim to be so
delicately balanced fhst they lose their
equilibrium completely if a stalk of rag
weed sprout* within half a mile.
Others go them one better by it slating
that they have had attacks of sneezing
brought on by looking at an oil paint
ing of goldenrod and daisies.
It is a well established fact that the
exciting cause es hay fever ts the pollen
of any of a hundred or more plants and
grasses carried about on the wind.
Because the wind cannot be depended
on to carry each grain of pollen to the
right flower to promote fertilization, a
great many extra gralna are produced,
ao that some will be sure to fulfill their
purpose.
Thus, In the case of ragweed, it la ea
ttmated that several million grains of
pollen are scattered on the wind for
every grain which lands on s ragweed
| plant.
These straying atoms of pollen soniel
times travel five or six miles on the wind.
They are in the atr w breathe; ninety
nine people in a hundred have them in
their nasal past ages, and the membrane
la efficiently proof against irritation, so
that no harm is done.
But in tbe hundredth nose the mucous
membrane it extra-aensltlve.
The poison enters the membrane and
starts in irritation.
Meanwhile the possessor of the hun
dredth nose is gening wireless messages
to hia brain about a violent conflict in
his nasal passage
He sends .nark an order not to sur
render. but by this time the attacking
enemy is reinforced by some more pollen
grains and defeat Is Inevitable.
Susceptibility to bay fever is a mys
tery; some people respond only to rag
weed; others to the pollen of corn and
rye.
A great many think that goldenrod Is
their particular nemlsls. but science has
showed that goldenrod is so heavy that
it can not be blown any distance by tne
wind, and that, therefore, goldenrod can
cause a hay fever spasm only when the
pollen is inhaled from the plant itself.
As few hay feverite* ever aUpw them
selves to come within tola danger zone
of goldenrod. the plant's evil reputation
is obviously undeterred.
WEEDS
TO BLAME.
Some people are victims of bay fever
from childhood. Many, however, develop
the disease later, some as late as fifty
years of age. One reason for this seems
to be the fact. Just mentioned, that dif
ferent people are susceptible to different
plants.
Whether every nose is vulnerable to
some pollen toxin is not yet known, but
It Is certain that a great many people
escape hay fever only because they never
happen to get within iange of pollens
which would affect them.
Once the malady attacks you, the doc
tors say that you will most likely have
It every year at the same time for the
next decade or so. Os course you may
be able to avoid it by seeking out some
weedless place, or If you know what
plants are antagonistic to your eyes- aud
nose you have simply to spend your
summers where those particular plants
are unknown.
The majority of H. F. V.’s respond
violently to numerous plants.
Some of them seek refuge on the high
seas, or on tbe top of a mountain peak.
In tbe heart of a city, or in the depths
of our few remaining virgin forests.
A few resorts, notably those at high
altitudes and on tbe Ben coast, do seem
to he comparatively free from wind
borne pollen.
Up In New England, tbe H, F. V. s
have a retreat which they claim Is com
pletely organized against tbe disease.
At the boarding house of this village
the dining-fables and parlors are bare
of flowers.
Not even artificial flowers bloom her*,
for the power of suggestion Is strong,
and, then, too, artificial flowers are
great collectors of dust.
No dancing Is allowed In the hotels
lest dust start someone sneezing and
bring on an epidemic of kerchoos.
The swiftest growing weeds soareelj
get the.ir leaves above ground in tbe
neighborhood before they are destroyed.
HOLD CONVENTION
IN BNEEZELESS CITV.
In this specially treated atmosphere
(he convention of the hay feverites meats
yearly.
There Is a good deal of fun, for tbe
delegates can see the humor of hay ft
ver—aa exemplified In their fellow dele
gates.
The main purpose of the convention
Is, however, serious. 'Talks on remedies
are given, and experiences arc exchanged.
Persons supposed to be cured testify
for the benefit of the rest, and others
immediately rise to say that they tried
tbe same thing for years and it is a
failure.
There are about eighty cures on the
market, ranging from the really bene
ficial to the dangerous. Some of the
remedies with the best records for
"cures” contain enough cocaine or mor
phine to make drug addicts of the per
sons taking them.
For this reason the hay fever brother
hood always advises members to take
nothing without first consulting a re
liable physician.
The most important (Jevelopment in
/treatment of hay fever in recent years
is the pollen toxin.
About fifteen years ago, a German
DOG HILL PARAGRAFS
Tobe Moseley was among those pres
ent at the auction sale at the Tickville
livery stables last Saturday afternoon,
and purchased the bust picture of a
mule at a sacrifice.

Sile Klldew has been appointed trav
eling salesman for a large baking pow
der concern, his territory being exclu
sively in this neighborhood, and he gives
free of cost a large map with each pack
age. The map looks like a good one and
is guaranteed that the states will bold
their shapes and the rivers will not
warp.
• • •
Raz Barlow, who was named as a
committee of one to ascertain why and
how the frogs got into the cistern at
the Wild Onion school house, reports
the arrival of two more since tbe last
meeting.
scientist named Dunbar inoculated
horses with the toxin from grass pollen,
and from the counter-poisons which de
veloped he obtained a serum, which be
found to be beneficial in preventing hay
fever and in arresting irritation in per
sons already suffering from it.
Since then. Dunbar’s experiments have
been carried further, and toxins hav
been produced from various combina
tions of pollens.
In some cases these toxins have cured
the patient for the entire season. Then
again, no improvement occurred, pos
sibly because tbe toxin was composed
of the wrong pollens for that particular
case
Though the toxins have proved a valu
able remedy they have not driven out
hay fever aa it wag prophesied.
In fact the disease Is said to be on the
Increase.
It is not contagious, but the nasal
condition favorable to It is sometiraea
Inherited. Tbe advance of hay fever is
ascribed partly to the fact that so many
city dwellers live in the suburbs, where
weeds usually grow abundantly.
Hay fever statistics sre vague but im
pressive.
Members of the hay fever association
estimate that there are now at least
1,000.000 bay fever sufferers In this coun
try, and that during the sneezing season,
averaging forty two days, they sneeze on
an average of seventy-six times a day
each. Equipped with these undtsputable
estimates the statisticians proceed- to
show that these organized aneezers pro
duce 3.192.000.000 sneezea every year.
Luckily for the United States the aneea
era have not organized to the extent of
agreeing to set off their seventy-aix daily
sneezes at regular times
The reverberation of a million simul
taneous kerchoos would surely bring our
skyscrapers toppling down about our
ears and deafen the country with their
reaoundlng echoes.
HEAVY CLOTHING
TO PROTECT CHILD
Boards of Health Give Fourth
of July Advice.
Boards .of health in .Tune bulletins
give the following advice regarding
methods of preventing serious and fatal
lnjnry to children from Fourth of July
fireworks:
"Dress the little ones In clothing made
of coarse, slow burning material, while
the children are handling fireworks. Tbe
light, fluffy dresses worn by girls ususlty
burn so quickly that It Is Impossible to
smother the flames before the r-hild Is
fearfully burned, and results only too
often In the death of the child.
“The heavier clothing generally woyi
by boys protects them from severe
burns, although their more daring ex
ploits often result tn serious injury due
to premature explosions, careless
handling of powder, pistols, rockets, etc.
“If the little girls must wear thin
dresses of Inflammable material when
they are handling small fireworks, espe
cially at night, thetr clothing ought to
bp covered with an all-over of some
coarse materia! that will not burn quick
ly; then, when sparks and burning ends
of fireworks come Into contact with the
clothing, she fire easily can be smoth
ered before serious Injury results."
Goodluelc Oleomargarine—Glosebrenner’s.
Fear Prevents
Fat People
From Reducing Weight—The Fear
Is Needless When
Arbolone Tablets Is the Treatment
To Be Used. Proven Safe
and Sure.
Hundreds of thousands of tubes of
Arbolone Tablets have been market
ed in the past five years and not a
single case has ever been reported of
their being deleterious in any way.
On the contrary, many are grateful
and write letters similar to this one,
which was received from Mrs. Lilia
Richards, Pittsfield, Maine;
“Dear Bir: Two years ago I tried
Arbolone Tablets. It not only re
duced me, but cured my headache
and heart palpitation, and removed
that bloated feeling. Recently my
weight again increased. I began Ar
bolone again and one box reduced
me from 199 pounds to 182 pounds,
and I feel so much better. I shall
continue until my weight is again
normal, etc ”
Buy Arbolone Tablets of druggists
in sealed tubes with full directions.
It is the one safe, sure, dependable
obesity medicine. A genuine guaran

CHURCH OPENS
CONFERENCE HER
Evangelistic Association Plans
to Buy Tabernacle Presby
terian Church.
Rev. W. L. Pickard, pastor of the Cen
tral Baptist church of Chattanooga,
Tenn., was on the program at the after
noon and evening sessions of the confer
ence of the Indianapolis Evangelistic as
sociation and the Indianapolis Ministerial
association at the Tabernacle Presbyte
rian church today.
Rev. Graham Scroggle of Edinburg,
Scotland, will lecture Thursday and Fri
day. *
Some of the subjects to be discussed
are "The Accuracy of the Scriptures,”
“The Menace of Evolution,” “Scholarship,
False and True,” and "Crises of the
Hour.”
Plans for buying the Tabernacle Pres
byterian church building at Eleventh and
Meridian streets were discussed at the
opening session of the conference yes
terday. s
It Is the plan of the associations to
establish it as a place for holding
evangelistic services during the year by
churches of all denominations, and as a
national headquarters of the committee
on fundamentals in religion.
Rev. W. Ambrose Dunkel, pastor of the
Tabernacle church, said that should the
purchase be made the Tabernacle church
will build anew church on the site of
Its present chapel at Central avenue and
Thirty-fourth street.
Action on the matter is expected
through Rev. W. B. Riley, pastor of
the First Baptist church of Minneapolis,
Minn., who is expected to arrive in In
dianapolis tomorrow.
The conference of the committee on
fundamentals began yesterday afternoon.
Rev. Josiab Gravltt of Denver and Rev.
W. L. Pickard were tbe principal
speakers.
Total Legion Posts
Is Jumping Forward
Forty-five new posts of tbe American
legion and forty-one units of the
women’s auxiliary were charteied during
the last week, it was announced at the
national headquarters xof the legion to
day.
The increase of last week shows the
state now having 297 posts and forty
auxiliary units and the nation 9,479
posts and 1,068 auxiliaries.
Legion officials said recent tabulations
show that Illinois legionary posts have
the largest paid-up membership of auy
state, recently having passed New York.
Proper Thing Now Is to
Peel Off Soiled Skin
Those who zbhor sticky, greasy, shiny,
streaked complexions should religiously
avoid creams, powders and rouges dur
ing the heated day. There's no need for
them, anyway, since the virtues of mer
colized wax have become known. No
amount of perspiration will produce any
evidence that yon’ve been using the wax.
A* it is applied at bedtime and washed
off in the morning, tbe complexion never
looks like a make-up. Mercoltzed wax
gradually takes off a bad complexion, in
stead of adding anything to make it
worse. It has none of the disadvantages
of comet|r* and accomplishes much
more in keeping the complexion beauti
fully white, satiny and youthful, free
from freckles, pimples, blotches and other
blemishes. Just get an ounce of if at
your druggist's and see what a few days'
treatment will do. Use like cold cream.—
