A very pret home wedding was held yesterday afternoon at 6 o'clock at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Thomson when their daughter, Mar- garet Muir, became the bride of David Ross Wilson. The house was deco- rated with autumn leaves and flowers, giving it a charming appear- ance. The ceremony was performed Ly Rev. Carlton Hazen, pastor of the Kensington Congregational church, and the bride was given in marriage by her father. Mrs. Carlton Hazen played the wedding march. Previous to the ceremony John Thomson, a brother of the bride, sang “Oh Prom- ise Me.” The bride was attired in a gown of white georgette crepe over white and carried a bouquet of white roses. Her wedding veil was caught up with lilies of the valley. The couple were unatttended. The bride’s going away gown was of navy blue with beaver trimmings. Mr- and Mrs. Wilson left on a wed- ding trip to Boston and vicinity and upon their return will reside in Ken- smgton. Carter Improved. Second Selectman George B.

After the successful meeting held af the home of Mrs. E. W. Mildrum Tuesday evening, at which a discus- slon of suffrage was held, the women have decided to hear the other side of the question. Mrs. M. Toscan Ben- nett showed them why women should vote, and the next speaker will show them why they should not. The sec- ond meeting is to be held some time next week. $15,25 for Hunting License. That hunting is one of the most popular of the fall sports was proved vesterday when three Italians took out permits to hunt. As these permits cost aliens $15.26 each, there is not very much call for them, and it is seldom that the town clerk issues more than one. Three in one day is a record that will stand for some time.

WHAT NERVOUS PEOPLE NEED WONDERFULLY SPEEDY NEW FOUND RELIEF FOR TIRED, WORN OUT, SHATTERED, UNSTRUNG NERVOUS SYSTEMS. It is simply marvelous, the speedy relief that a single Margo Tablet will 8lve any man or woman whose nerves are upset, unstrung or dulled, tired and ambitionless. Every tablet seems to go straight to the nerve cells, over- coming in just a few moments fatigue, despondency, “jumps,” fidgets,” ner- vous indigestion and all those other symptoms of rundown nerve force that are so surely the forerunners of ner- vous prostration and general nervous breakdown. Margo vitalizes your worked nerves into nerves of steel, charging them with powers of tre- mendous endurance and reserve ener- gy and does it without a single dan- gerous drue Margo is a scientific combination of six of the most power- ful and effective, yet absolntely harm- less, nerve stimulants known to chem- istry and a month’s systemati: usc should completely transform the worst nervous wreck into a strong, healthy. vigorous man or woman. Margo really does more good in the average case of ‘mnerves’ than a month's vacation because it not only “rests” the nerves but puts new snap and “ginger” and courage into your entire body. Margo must accomplish these things or its cost is nothing.

Attempting to solve the mystery >tty burg- the series of D Egan with thefts, department ha to Plainville and o | ficers are now working in the h {of apprehending the perpetrators. | Deputy Sheriff McCabe of Southing- ton, who frequently does investigating for Chief Egan, was here yesterday and it was said that he has been as- signed to the task of clearing the mystery. It is admitted that during the past few months a number of burglaries, | most of which were of no great im- portance, have been committed here. But few of them have been made pub- lic and while the state police have received reports concerning them, tho local constables admit that except in a few cases complaints were not made to them. Within a week the state officers have been advisefl there have been few breaks. Reports have also reached them of attempted burglaries which proved unsuccessful, the bark- ing of dogs or the unexpected awak- ening of the occupants of buildings | selected for operations having fright- ened the prowlers aw before they | gained an entrance, Owners of garages seem | been the principal sufferers. and parts of machines have taken from the places in which they were housed and nearly everything of | value that was movable went away with the visitors. One automobils owner reported that his garage was visited a few nights ago and the un- invited guest even went so far as | to attempt to steal the car, conditions at the place the following morning re- vealing evidence that an effort had been made to start the engine. car was out of and the thief was unsuccessful in his quest. Places of business have been broken into in quiet fashion and small amounts' of money have been taken. The owners have claimed they could not see the wisdom of making much noise over their loss and they in- variably were content with simply making a report to Chief Egan. Police officers believe that local tal- ent, familiar with the places broken into, are probably responsible for tho thefts as the manner in which the buildings invariably —were entered would indicate that strangers were not concerned in it, Outlook More Hopeful, According to First Belectman John- son the outlook for getting voting machines here for experimental use at the November election was much brighter today and there is reason for encouragement on the part of those advocating the substitution of the me- chanical apparaus for the Australian ballot. After visiting the state commission- er in Hartford vesterday and talking with representatives of concerns which manufacture the machines, the selectman took under consideration the matter of getting apparatus made by the Automatic Register company, which is in use in several places in the state. He has communicated with the' company's representatives and this morning he felt that he may sociated a | laries and Chief of | state police sent his representatives to have Robes been | be able to make a ccntract with them. Mr. Johnson discovered that all the companies insist on charging for the rental of the machine the price averaging $75 for each one used, but they are willing to have the money apply towards paying for the appar- atus should the town decide to pur- chase them outright. The selectmen do not believe that the voters understood that such a high rental would be charged when they passed the resolution instructing the selectmen to make the use of the machines possible on election day. Nevertheless they feel that their or- ders are plain and it is up to them to obey them at any cost. Efforts will be made to get the machines here about a week befora the election if possible to give the voters a chance to become familiar with the manner in which they are operated, Negroes Grow Restless, in change of the freight at the tranmsfer station are enthusiastic over the success of the Tailroad’s plan of having southern negroes substitute for the white men formerly employed on the platforms. The negroes are not a very energotic Jot and many of them are longing to g6 back to their southern homes.

Gave Interesting Lecture. Nearly 150 people attended the first of the season’s suppers and socials of the Ladles’ Benevolent society of the Congregatianal church given last even- ing. After an excellent repast they were treated to a most entertaining program. Miss Clara Beach pleased the diners with a most interesting lecture on India. M ch spent over a quar- ter of a ceutury as a missionary in that country and her recital of the habits and customs of the people was highly interesting. She sang in the nat tongue and told several anec- dotes in connection with her work. Good Potato Harvest. Henry Tyler of Scott's Swamp, has completed the harvesting of his po- tato crop. Mr. Tyler's work in raising thetubers this year was most succe ful and his crop totals over 1,200 bushels, raised from a small acerage. Selectman Johnson dug over 900 bushels on his farm. Joseph A. Fagan, who is regarded “king of 'em all,” when it comes to growing potataes, is now at work harvesting his crop which he expects will be a record breaker, Despite the seeming abundance of potatoes in this section the price of the spuds is soaring daily. Scott Swamp farmers. are getting good quotations for their crop and sales are already averaging as high as $1.50 per bushel. Brief Items. A birthday surprise was tendered Miss Aline Pratte at her home, 15 Pine street last evening. Friends were present from New Haven, Hartford, Springfield and Bristol.

Morale of Prisoners Varies. It is a general remark among the British that never has the morale of the prisoners varied more than now. “You will notice that we are al- ways taking prisoners and that the Germans get very few of ours,” said a staff officer. “Though small parties of our men are bound to get into hazardous positions in this kind of intricate operations at close quarters !they die rather than yield. This shows | their morale and the temper of the situation. Some Germans have never fought better and some have never fought so badly as in the last few weeks. Today, for example, twenty Germans practically threw up their hands and walked into the British But the soldiers who took them prisoners or their commanders Lad no illusion that these prisoners {ypified the condition of the German army as a whole. There were other Cermans who were ready to fight with that ferocity which expects no quar- | ter.” However, whether it is a German who throws up his hands on the ap- proach of a British charge or the sur- vivor of a score who fought to the dcath the opinion as to the duration of the struggle remains the same. All believe that the war has entered & stage where no compromise is to be expected and where victory will go to the side with the ability to stick the longe: the British soldiers and their leaders. | i§ Ger- | i i CARPET COMPANY 219 ASYLUM ST., HARTFORD.
