And this in spite of the fact that your teeth a/ways look immac- ulately clean and white. Pebeco Tooth Paste Here's the point: You have “acid-mouth.” Your salivary and mouth juices are unusually acid. They “work ” upon the hard outside enamel. They weaken it. A cavity ap- pears.

It is stated that the New Haven road has saiready expended about $60,000 in its test borings of the bottom of the Thames river which are being car- ried on by the T. A. Scott Co., and that up to the present time no bot- tom suitable for the piers of the pro- posed new railroad bridge has been se- cured. It s said thai the location which had been picked out for the structure which will span the Thames will probably have to be abandoned, leaving the alternative of going far- ther up the river or else building the new bridge where the old one is. Whether the latter course would be possible, in view of the gift to the state by the railroad company of the present bridge for highway purposes is, of course, a question. The fact re- mains, however, according to reliable information. that the railroad com- pany has run up against a decided snag in its effort to find the proper place to put_the bridge. It is said that at some points along the line of the proposed location it has been necessary to go down 200 feet before a bottom of sufficient re- sistance could be obtained. It is evi- dent from the thoroughness with which the preliminary investigation is being made that the company intends to carry its announced policy of “safe- ty first” in'to its engineering projects as well as the operation of trains and the care which is being exercised in the choice of a bridge site is very gen- erally commended by those familiar with it, That some new method of crossing the Thames must be secured within a comparatively brief period is admitted by officials of the road. While the present bridge may be safe for the slow passage of a single train, it is anti- quated and an obstruction to speedy traffic. Referring to the present financial condition of the road, an official of the company is quoted as saying that the Thames river bridge might in its pres- ent shape mean the loss of money through the necessity for slow running of trains but that the company could ‘better stand that loss now {han it could spending millions for a new bridge. Nevertheless the bridge must be built, according to President us- tis, and the funds must be provided. A person familiar with railroad mat- ters said Monday that he believed it would be necessary for the New Haven to spend from $5,000,000 to $9.000,000 in and about New London in the near future. SUCCESSFUL WHIST, SOCIAL AND SALE. St. Mary's Parish Conducts Annual Event With Big Attendance. .

Bunting of red, white and blue was draped around the hall and gallery. All present wore a spray of green or a carnation. On the main floor 110 tables of whist were played, cared for by twenty scorers from the Young Ladie's Sodal_ ity, while n the ground floor 15 tables of “45" were in progress, cared for by three scorers from this so- ciet: e judges for the whist were Will- iam E.

Murtha third,, box of to- bacco and pipe; T. A. Carey. fourth, briar wood pipe; T. Donovan, fifth, pack of playing cards. A fair estimate of the attendance would place the figures at 800, as the gallery was crowded and many watch_ ed the party from the side lines Many from all parts of the city and town were in attendance, prominent persons seen being Rev. Myles P. Gallvin and His Honor Mayor Timothy C. Murphy. The sole proceeds of the affair will go for the benefit of the parish and Revs. John H. Fitzmaurice and William H.

Brown Wants to Buy Old Mys- tic Place He Lives On. In a suit brought in the superior court, papers having been filed with | Parsons, Wilfred E. Brown of | Stonington makes claim against John | E. Hart, now of Elroy, Wis., who is| trustee under the will of Blijah A.! Morgan, late of Stonington, to compel | the trustee to fulfill the terms of an! agreement by which Mr. Brown has| leased a piece of property in the vil- lage of Old Mystic. Since March, 1907, the plaintiff in this case has leased the | property at tha-nnnual rental of $180, and in the lease was a clause which ! gave the lesee, who is the plaintiff, | in this case, the first opportunity to; purchase the premises at the same| price and terms on which the sale! would be made to any other person. | Now it is claimed that on the 31st of January, this year, Mr. Hart as trus- fee had an offer to sell the property to someone else and has arranged to do 80, but he has declined to tell thel plaintiff who this buyer is or to tell him what the terms of sale are, and also that the agent of Mr. Hart, who is Albert Denison of Stonington, has re- fused to accept the purchase price. Mr. Brown affirms that he still ready and willing to take the place, and he asks for a court decree for a convey- ance of the property, and he claims $2.500 damages. Mr. Brown is now in possession of the premises. Paris’ underground electrical rail- roads are carrving more than 400, 000,000 passengghs = year GAVE SHOP TALK AT THERMOS FACTORY Rev. F.

And the Basis of Her Health and Vigor Lies in the Careful Regu- lation of the Bowels. If woman’s beauty depended upon cosmetics, every woman would be a picture of loveliness. But beauty lies deeper than that. It lles In health, In the majority of cases the basis of health, and the cause of sickness, can be traced to the action of the bowels. The headaches, the lassitude, the sal- low skin and the lusteriess eyes are usually due to constipation. So many things that women do habitually con- duce to this trouble. They do not eat carefully, they eat indigestible foods because the foods are served daintily and they do not exercise enough. But whatever the particular ¢ ause may be it is important that the condition should be cerrected. An ideal remedy for women, and one especially suit&l to thelr delicate requirements, is Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, which thousands of women endorse highly, among them, Mrs. C. S. Vance, of 511 S. Ray St., New Cas- tle, Pa. At times she had spells of indigestion so severe that she thought she would die. Syrup Pepsin regulat- ed her stomach and bowels, and she attributes her excellent health to this remedy. Al‘l the family can use Dr. Cald- well's Syrup Pepsin, for thousands of mothers give it to babies and chil- dren. It is also admirablly *suited to the requirements of elderly people, in fact to all who by reason of age or infirmity cannot stand harsh saits, cathartics, pills or purgatives.
