Several new poles were put in their places a few weeks ago and this norning men from the power and telephone companies were working on changing wires from the old to the new poles and adding new wires. Un- der the old stem the lights were egulated by a time clock but with Ithe coming of new lights they will | be regulated from New Britain. The town will now have 30 lights for il- lumination instead of 19. New ones are being placed on Berlin strect. Farmington road, Hudson street and the East Berlin road.

One of the most daring daylight robberies ever held in this town took vesterday afternoon during one busiest hours of the day. Mrs. Cornelius Downing, who lives on the second floor o tfhe Russell Block at Central Square was the victim of the cleverne of the robber or robbers, As it was Mrs. Downing left her apartment to visit a neighbor triend of hers across the hall-way. This was at a few minutes vefore 3 o'clock. When she returned to her hnnlr. which K not more than ten minutes later, her purse had been removed from the bureau drawer and tne contents taken. There was a sum of $50 in it. The purse had been thrown on the floor and the cat was playing with it when Mrs. Dcwning entered. However, an- other sum, smaller than that which had been taken, was uverlooked in the b au drawcr. Evidently the robber wi in haste and did not look thoroughly. Mrs. Downing was at a loss as to what to do and nottfied her friends. There were no youngsters about the place at the time as school was still in session when the act was commit- ted. M. Downing cannot recall any strangers who had called previous to her leaving. There were no possible clues left by the intruder which would give any indication or his identity. The local authorities were notifled of the robbery and are working on the case at present. In a way, it seems that the person or persons, who took the money, was in some way acquainted with the whereabouts of it and went directly to the bureau, or possibly, luck tavored them and the purse was found whea they first entered. Mrs. Downing is the wife of Cor- ndlius Downing who served as con- stable for Plainville for a number of vears past. Hartford is at this time being raid- ed by some clever thieves and it may be that a stray one took a trip to Plainville yesterday to try his luck. The people are however, urged to lock their homes no matter how long a time they intend to remain away. Pilgrim Lecture, Professor Waldo S. Pratt of Hart- ford gywill lecture ronight at 7:2 o'clock in the parlors of the Congre, tional church FHis lecture will be on the Pi Fathers. This is the second lecture of its kind to be held in the church parlors. A series of three are being observed. They are in honor of the Three Hundredth anniversary of the landing of.the Piigrims. Professor Pratt will speak on, “The Song Book of the Pilgrims.” The lecture will be illustrated with the use of the piano, when veral of the songs will be played. These lectures have been given at New B 1in and other places and are very interesting. Thc public has been cordially invited to attend. Town Meeting Tonight. = The legal voters of the town have been called to attend a special town meeting of the Selectmen to be held at the Town Hall at 8 o'clock tonight. A moderator will be nominated who will preside at the meeting tonight. k o meeting has been called for the purpose of having the proposition of the Selectmen voted upon, for borrow- ing a’sum of money to meet the ex- penses of the Town Budget for the season of 1920-1921.

The Ladies' Aid society of the Plainville Methodist church has an- nounced that the annual Christmas sale of food, fancy articles, home made candy and other things, has been postponed untls Wednesday af- ternoon December 15. The sale was to have been keld this evening. It will be held at the church parlors. A sup- per will be served at 6 o’clock after which the sale will be in progress.

Under the auspices of the Ladies’ Aid society of the Advent Christian church, a food sale was conducted at the vacant store in the Neri Block vesterday afternoon. There was a very large attendance during the sale and a laige sum was realized. The funds will be used for general work of the Mission society. The church also needs some repairs made on it, and these expenses will be taken out of the sale mone Checks Make Many Happy. With the issuing of the Christmas club checks of the Plainville Trust company to the local people who were members, mz hearts were gladdened by receiving them. The bank employes were kept busy yes- terday cashing them Smiles were many and numerous when they re- ceived the money the checks helped many who found times were not as zood this year as they had been previous vears. Several of the people who had rezular accounts add- ed their Christmas checks to this. The bank proposes to start the club again for next season some time next week.

Evidence Scems Be Convincing That Anaemia and Gencral Ri down OCondition Are Due to Run-down Glands, to New Gland Tablets Guaranteed Bring Decided Results in 10 Days Or Moncy Refunded. Did you read the newspaper ac-' counts reproduced here? They are so interesting and may mean so much to thousands of readers of this paper that they deserve repetition. They tell the story of the reported remark- | able results from the use of monkey |and other animal glands in making decrepit old men young and restoring health and strength to young men and women who have become run-down. Whoever thinks these are unusual cases should keep their eye on the press reports of similar medical vic- tories and know that many physi-' cians are now treating weaknesses of both men and women in this modern scientific way. H Scientists tell us that in the glands they have found a vital secret of life which are “hormones.” To find these essen hemical clements which they have discovered help con- trol organs, biood, nerves and tissue- building, they now go straight to life itself .and _from healthy, young cattle and. sheep, take the gland-power which we nced and prepare it in tab- let form, so it may be taken pleas- antly and convenicntly.
