A well known local hotel propri: and theater owner recently ;mxpre;t;: 2 potato deal. About a week ago he ordered 100 bushels of choice spuds from a New Britain farmer at $1.60 a IDOCTOR SAYS VINOL 1S THE BEST TONIG Honest Opinion Doctor Gave His Patient Bedford, Ohio.—“I was in a pitiful condition, weak, nervous and run down so I could not do my housework. I had doctored for years and tried everything under the sun. A friend told me about Vinol. I asked my doctor about it, and he replied, ‘It certainly is the best medicine that can be had today. I couldn’t give you ary better. I took it, and today I am as well and strong as any woman could wish to be, and it was Vinol that saved me.”—Mrs. Frank A.

T —————— SEVEN YEARS’ WAR SOLDIER PREDICTS William Lynch, Home ¥From Canadian Army on Furlough, Tells of Life in Trenches. Relating some of his own experi- ences abroad while fighting with the Canadian Overseas Battalions, Wil- liam Lynch of Clark street, home on a short furlough, declares that the Germans are great fighters and also that the published stories of thelr atrocities are not in the least exag- gerated. Young Lynch had, for several vears before the war broke out, been a bushel. The farmer was brin, him the potatoes when he was swps;r;g by a restaurant keeper who asked him for 50 bushels at $1.75. The farmer told him that he had the hundred al- ready sold, but gave him the potatoes and took the remaining 50 bushels to the hotel where he put them in the cellar. He then went upstairs to the man- ager and told him he would bring the rest of the spuds in the morning. “I don’t want the potatoes and if you don’t get them out of' my*place within an hour I will charge you $25 an hour for storage,” the hotel man is allefed to have replied. So surprised was the farmer that he lost his breath for a minute. He went down nto the ‘cellar accompanied by the hotel owner ‘who told him that he had placed his 50 bushels of po< tatoes on top of 80 that he, the ho- tel man, already had in the place. The time was flylng fast but not as fast as the poor farmer’s heart, who but a few minutes before was con- gratulating hinfself on the other sale on which he wént 15¢ better. The ho- tel owner lost no time but had one of his assistants count out what was supposed to be 30 bushels but they were not welghed. Tearfully the farmer watched .the spuds evaporate as it were, until there were about 25 bushels left. As the time drew near the farmer asked for | $1 a bushel and a little bit later for 90c a bushel but the hotel owner couldn’t see it. At last heartbroken, the farmer asked for his check. To his great sur- prise the manager asked him how many bushels he had left there and he said fifty. Taking the 30 off which the manager claimed as his own there was about 25 bushels left. After much talking and pleading on the part of the farmer, he received the sum of 76¢ a bushel for 40 bush- els.

Their mother, lying in a poverty stricken tenement, commits suicide and Rose is adopted by Judge Keith, while Norma is taken over by Mrs. Dugan, a woman of tho tene- ments. From then on they are known under their adopted names. Rose be- comes a social success, but Norma falls into the clutches of Calistro, a charlatan hypnotist. Under his guid- ance she becomes a hypnotic subject globe -trotter, had travelled “all over the United States and also to Alaska and the Hawailan Islands. He was in France when the war started and en- listed with the Canadian forces. He has had actial experience under fire and states that at one time he was in the front line renches which were only about 36 yards away from the German front line trenches. He said that wounded Germans have been known suddenly to draw their guns and kill the men and women nurses Wwho come onto the battle fleld to suc- cor them, There is nothing too brutal or flendish for the Hun sol- dier to do, he states. Lynch was wounded severa] times and was also caught in a German gas attack and at present his eyes and stomach are in bad condition as a result. Speaking of the fighting ability of the Germans, Lynch asserts that they.can fight like flends and 4lthough some of their soldiers are only boys, nevertheless they are big, strong fellows and know how to take care of themselves. That the war may last seven vears was an o pinion expressed by the local soldler, Lynch expects to remain in the States for about a month, when he will return to Canada and if accepted as physically firing line with his comrades. fit will return to the ond Calistro is taken up by fashion- able soclety. At a social entertain- ment Calistro notices the resemblance between Rose and Norma.
