ADVERTISED GOODS ARE USUALLY OF BETTER QUALITY When a man puts an arti- cle on the market and adver- tises it he is giving it his per- sonal endorsement. He is creating a standard that he must live up to for ail if he expects to succeed. time He must fulfill all his ad- vertising promises—and if he is a wise advertiser he will do a little bit more. His hope of profit is the steady demand he wishes to create, and this can only come to an article with real merit. The great advertising agen- cles which are expert in plan- ning big campaigng frequently advise would-be advertisers to wait for months or years until they bring their product to a point where it is ready for exploitation. All things being equal it is a safe rule to choose an adver- tised brand rather than one that has no particular sponsor. It will more money. generally satisfaction assure you for your It's what you you pay, get for what that counts.

Havens, grand secretary emeritus as well, of Hartford, and leon M. Woodford of Naugatuck. Andrew G. Lippitt of New London, grand senior warden in 1895, had also died. To each of these officers the grand master paid eulogy for their devotions to the | cause of Masonry. The dedications during the year were at Westville, Suffleld and North Haven. - Attention was called to the congest- ed condition of the grand secretary’'s office owing to lack of room to care for the dflcgman!s which constantly come in, and inadequate facilities to classify and place them on shelves. The grand master recommended that a special committee consider means of overcoming conditions. A revision of the regulations relating to suspension for non-payment of dues to avoid pres- ent complications was also recom- mended. Grand Secretary George A. Kies in his report referred to gifts of several books of much value to the grand lodge, including the constitution and by-laws of the grand lodge of Con- necticut, edition of 1854, presented by H. B. Philbrick of Hartford. He said arrangements had been made for the early printing and distribution of the doings of the present annual com- munication.

One of the particularly interesting points in the experience of the two Nor- wich delegates was that they were in- cluded in the favored 25 who first were admitted to see President Wil- son, when the cause of the suffragist was presented to him by those who had been selected to be the spokes- men, or rather spokeswomen. This lucky turn for the Norwich delegates came about because the Connecticut delegation of 33 was at the head of the parade and being nearest was the first to be admitted to see the pres- ident. B Miss Blackstone told the Haile club members in her report that upon reaching New York on last Saturday, they went to the Trades Union rooms and there met a number of the prom- inent workers in the suffrage cause. One Was Miss Rose Neuman, the Ru: sian worker, who secured work at ‘Wauregan, and then wrote up mill conditions there for a Bridgeport pa- per. She assured them that she had told nothing but the truth and that the report, far from being exaggerated, right have been made worse. In the evening in New York they attended the Votes for Women ball in the Tist regiment armory where there was an attendance of 10,000 people. In New York on Saturday night all the Con- necticut delegates were entertained by Mrs. Beard. On Sunday morning In with the New York delegation the Connecticut suffragists went on_ to Washington, one other prominent New York worker they met was Miss Mar- garet Hinchey who was a leader in the laumndry strike and from whose writing about Blackwell’s Isiand con- ditions great reforms were started in prison _administration. In Washington, all the delegates were entertained at the homes of the leading suffragists of the city. Both the Norwich young ladies were en- tertained in the same family. In the march to the White House on Monday the Connecticut delegation was at the head of the parade, led by a band, playing the National Emblem march. Those who were to speak to the president were given two min- utes each. Those who did the speak- ing here as well as at a mass meet ing at Carnegie library, were Miss Rose Schneiderman, MIss Scott of Newark, president of the hatmakers, Miss Hinchey, Miss Rose Winslow of the textile workers, and Mrs, Wax- mann for the unemployed. Miss Winslow made an appeal along company MY.MCA . with at attendance of 50 members. The health lines, Miss Scott advanced the argument that women were forced to work with men and under the same conditions and could therefore be bet- | ter protected if they had the suffrage, and Miss Hinchey appealed to the president as a fellow democrat. The president received them kindly, shaking hands with them, and Mrs. Evans of Boston introduced the speakers. Of course, the president’s reply to all was as it always has been, the party must speak first. He couldn’t | speak for them. “Speak to them,” said Mrs. Evans, “and they will listen.” She reminded him of his remark to her before his election, and he said he spoke as a private citizen then. “In other words, you were gunning for votes,” said Mrs. Evans. The pres- under that thrust, and retorted: “I was making an appeal to the_voters.” “Yes, and we worked for you, and you will do nothing for us.” Again declaring he was bound by his party, he asked for the other dele- gates. hey have been refused ad- mittance,” said Mrs. Evans. “I would like to see :them all and shake hands,” said the president. two Norwich delegates stayed over and met Congressmen Reilly, Mahan, Donovan, Lonergan and Ken- nedy from Connecticut. Congressman Reilly was the only one to say defi- nitely that he was in favor of the suffragists. They also met Congress- man Heffrom from Alabama, an avow- ed opponent, but wha told them he considered it was inevitably coming, but he should fight it on all occa- sions. WEDDING. Roche—Shea. Rev. J. H. Broderick, pastor of St. Patrick’s church, united in marriage Thomas Fay Roche of New London and Miss Helen Catherine Shea of this city on Tuesday.

A CENSORSHIP OF THE UNITED STATES PRESS Bill Which Would Russianize America, Vigorously Opposed. ‘Washington, Feb. 4 his bill at- tempts to Russianize America; it would establish a censorship over the press by the postmaster general American newspapers will not ‘tolerate | it” This was the comment of Sen- | ator Hitchcock to fellow members of | the senate banking and currency com- | mittee today at the opening of the hearing on the stock exchange regula- tion bill offered by Chairman Owen. | The bill provides for denial of the mails to stock exchanges which vio- | late restrictions imposed by the meas- ure and would require the incorpora- tion of stock exchanges under state laws. Senator Hitchcock declared _the measure was an attempt to take from the states powers and duties which were purely domestic an din no sense | federal. He asserted that the word- | ing of the bill would give the post- | masied general apsolute supervision of | news concerning stock exchanges | which papers outside of the cities where the exchangés were located might wish to print. Mr. Untermyer insisted that the pow- er given the postmaster general was limited; that only transactions of a treudulent character would be barred from the mails. “The press always has been jealous of the postoffice 'privileges, ’'he said “fearing that regulations might some | time reach to libelous matter.” ‘As a newspaper man I take excep- tion to that statement,” said Senator Hitchcock. “The papers resist only an attempt to place in the hands of any one man the power to censor publica- tions. The freedom of the press is a fundamental principle of our consti- tution.” SISTER CONTESTS WILL OF MRS. JAMES A. BAILEY. Barnum’s Partner in Circus Busi Left Estate of $4,000,000. White Plains, N.

If you are one of these | unfortunates, then these glasses may | be ruining your eyes instead of help- | ing them. Thousands who wear these “windows” may prove for themselves that they can dispense with glasses if they will get the following prescrip- tion filled at once: Go to Lee .and | Osgood or any active drug store and Optona; fill a two- ounce bottle with warm water and drop in one Optona tablet. With this harmless liquid solution bathe the eyes two to four times daily, and you are likely to be astonished at the re- sults right from the start. Many who have been told that they have astig- matism, eye-strain, cataract, sore eyelids, weak eyes, conjunctivitis and other eye disorders, report wonderful benefits from the use of this pre- scription. Get this prescription filled and use it; you may so strengthen your eyes that glasses will not be nec- essary. Thousands who are blind, or nearly so, or who wear glasses would never have-required them if they had cared for their eyes in time. Save your s before it is too late! Do not be- me one of these victims of neglect. veglasses are oniy like crutches and ry few years they must be changed it the ever-increasing weakened condition, so better see if you can, iike many others, get clear, healthy, strong magnetic eyes through the pre- scription here given. “CLEON” Life Reader LAST WEEK AT REDUCED RATES.
