INSTEAD of exercise Millions of busy men and women are learning the secret of the exers ciser in the vest-pocket box for a dime! Cascarets give your bowels as much real exercise as they get from an hour with the boxing gloves! Oils, salts and ordinary laxatives don't act like Cascarets. These things produce only mechanieal or chemical action. They weaken your bowels. Every time you use Cascarets your bowels become stronger. They are made from Cascara Sagrada, which stimulates the peristaltic action ani exercises the bowel muscles. Noth- ing else does this!

It also noted that theré had been *a greater decrease in passenger traln service than in passenger train rev- enue.” Diversion of freight from the branch lines ‘to the longer main routes was declared by the commis vested the title in the name of his wite. The writ alleges that on July 7, 1927, the plaintiff contracted for the purchase from John and Alice Men- dick of Plainville property located on Broad street, Plainville. On an- other occasion, he advanced money and purchased property from Cicero J Moore, located on Hough street in Plainville and three parcels of land. He stated that his wife never paid any money for the property and that he never intended to procure it as a gift to her. At all times subsequent to the purchase of the property, the plain- |tiff paid all taxes, water rents, etc., and has retained control and man- agement of the premises, leasing and collecting rents, without any signs of protest from his wife, he claims. On February 2, the plaintift claima that In violation of the prom- ises and agreements, his wife con- veyed all property to the City Na- tional bank in trust for herself and her children by a deed recorded in Plainville town clerk's office. Mir- ante further claims that on various occasions he asked her for recon- veyance of the property but was flatly refused. As in the previous action, the dants, the City National bank and Elvira Mirante, be enjoined from selling, conveying or mortgaging the property involved; that his wife be requested to specifically perform her agreement, and both defendants be directed to convey, assign and trans- fer to the plaintiff the premises. Papers were served by Constable Fred Winkle. The writ is returnable 'in superior court on the first Tues- day in April.

Senator Reed, democrat, Missourl, chairman of the special committee which recommended against the seating of Vare, told the senate yes- terday he did not desire to press for action against Vare at this time as Vare is unable to take advantage of the senate's previous offer to ap- pear and defend himself. The senate, on motion of Senator Norris voted, however, to continue indefinitely the special committee which inquired into Vare's 1026 campaign. Norris declared that the senate had extended “every courtesy that it possibly could” but that “the fact remains that Mr. Vare is a very sick man.” Carpets ¢ Rugs Linoleum He defeated Emil St. Godard who took second place. “I am mindful of the fact,” he #ald, “that at the next seasion of the senate those who favor the seating of Mr. Vare will be larger in num- ber than they are now, but under the circumstances I do not want to| crowd the case to & conclusion.” Calls It “Fairly Fair” Benator Reed, republican, Penn- sylvgnia, who said that Senator Nor- ris' ‘attitude was “'fairly fair,” joined with him in asking for immediate adoption of the resolution, The only objectors were Senator Blease, democrat, South Carolina, and Senator Heflin, democrat, Ala- bama, Blease declared that there had been “a lot of talk recently about constitutional rights” and asked: “What is a greater violation of the constitution than to deprive Penn- sylvania of her right to a seat in the senate?” “I don't think this matter ought to go over,” he said. “Either we ought to let Mr. Vare have his seat, or we ought to notify Pennsylvania that we will not seat him,” he said, “1 fee] about it as Senator Blease does,” Senator Reed said, “but I think it unlikely that those rights will be accorded by opposing this | resolution.” Heflin declared that “the sooner the senate acts, the better it will be for it and the country.” “Mr, Vare either acquired his seat corruptly or he didn’t,” he said, “and HenryGoldsmith&C 35 MAIN STREET the matter ought to be decided We al sympathise with Mr. Vare in his {liness but seats in this body are not for sale and whoever buys a seat ought to Le expelled and sent home.” NAVY WILL LOSE CHIEF CHAPLAIN Capt.
