In making meches it is very important that the ends should be turned in. Professor Reynier has brought up before the Academy .of Medicine a number of cases where the gause threads have remained in the wounds and caused abscesses, . which have ' retarded the convalescence of the men and caused them a great deal of unnecessary suffering. The knitted wash cloths, or mitts, are most useful .and we|. never have enough, but the French never . used the ‘dropped stitch’ sponges. The . eye bandages are Pprecious ,but should be wcompunlud with the eye dressings in the propor- tion of about five to one—flve dress- ings to 1 band. . These should be packed in boxes lined with white paper with a plece of paper between each dressing. T bindens very useful in small quantities. Slings are much in demand. They must be hemmed, as they are washed over ‘and over agaln. If you cut them on the selvedge instead of on the bias you will get more than of the doublea ones, and théy hold the arms better. It does not sag, as when cut on the bias™ ‘Thy ‘1! We always ‘“put “a little absorbent® cotton behind our oakum as well as the non-absorbent and thus a more satisfactory cushion is obtained—1 inch through when finished. The gauze should be folded ‘bover-the back ,not onto the front side. The oilcloth for packing is not very ‘practical, as it cracks. Rubber sheet- ing is far better, and if cut in lengths for putting under the draw sheets on the beds it is most valuable. A good lining of several thicknesses of .news- papers is excellent and we can use them for our incontinent pads, of which we make hundreds every week. 1 would propose first the paper and 'then the mackintosh. Mrs. Austin sends her warmest thanks to all the ladies who have done such splendid ‘work. It is deeply appreciated. Please beg them to continue, for now that the spring campaign has begun the need is overwhelming.” FARM WORK PROGRESSES. Had it not been for the inclement ‘weather of the early part of the week, all plowing at the municipal farm in Stanley Quarter would have been fin- ished tonight- As it is, almost forty acres has been plowed, half as many harrowed and more than a dosen acres already planted. This morning a dozen High school volunteers went to work on the farm and tomorrow twenty more will take up the work where today’s volunteers leave off. —————————————— A FRIEND’S ADVICE Woman Saved From a Seri- i= aE»E?

Private Joseph Welch of Company E that very morning; he made a plea .to the -women:of New Britain to.'b¥ réady to make the sti- preme sacrifice® and in conclusion urged as a patriotic duty that all eligible young men register on Junc 6. The mayor spoke in part as fol- lows: “Veterans and friends, we are gathered here today to commemo- rate the memory of those who made the supreme sacrifice in the troubled times of '61 and ‘98 We are in a engaged in the filling of medicine bat- tles in a New Jersey factory. For convenience, safety and comfort they have adopted the divided lower gar- ments which their- European sisters momentous period of the world’s his- tory, with our country plunged: into the greatest war of all tifhe. - This is a time for united action. We. should support our President, Woodrow Wil- son, who to my mind is the greatest president since Lincoln. We did not seek this war. It was forced on us. For a long time our president hesi- tated. He did not want war and he hoped- to avoid-it, but finally he de- cided that war must be waged and the great call was sent to: our. boys and. young men to come forward as these .veterans of today did in’ -years gone by. This morning as I passed the cemet the funeral of a soldier was being "held. It .was a solemn occa- sion. . This soldier did not- die in battle, He was killed In’ an accident, but he was in the service of his coun- try. 'He had heard. the call of our president and answered it.

Too many women mistaké their pains ‘and aches for troubles peculiar to the sex. More often’ disordered kidneys are causing the aching back, dizzy spells, headaches and irregular urination. Kidney weakness becomes dangerous if neglected. Use a time- tried kidney remedy—Doan’s Kidney Pills. Hosts of people testify to their merit. Read a New Britain case. Miss E. Roseen, 370: Maple street, New Britain, says: “I was just as mis- erable as could be and had continued, sharp, shooting pains in my back. I couldn’t move unless this pain seized me and it was just like needles pierc- ing my back all the time. It often caused a loss of sleep and madé me feel tired and worn-out. I doctored and used medicines but got only tem- porary relief. I finally used Doan’s Kidney Pills and the second box gave me relief. Four boxes permanently cured me.” Price 50c, a. all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy- Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that cured Miss Roseen. Foster-Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y. SAYS A CORN ACTS LIKE ELECTRIC BELL Tells why a corn is so painful and says cutting makes - them grow. Press an eloctric button and you form a contact with a live wire which rings the bell. When your shoes press against your corn it pushes its sharp rodts down upon a sensitive nerve and you-get a shock of pain. Instead of trimming your corns, which: merely makes them grow, just | step into any drug store and ask for a quarter of an ounce of Freezone. This will cost very little but is sufficient to remove every hard or soft corn or cal- lous from one’s feet. A few drops ap- plied directly upon a tender, aching corn stops the spreness instantly. and | soon the corn shrivels up so it lifts right out, root and all, without pain. This drug is harmless and never in- | flames or even irritates the surround- ing tissue or skin. BOSS LUNCH BISCUIT HARTFORD MAIL AND PHONE ORDERS FILLED CAREFULLY.
