ik NORWICH BULLETIN, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 25, 1914 DAMAGES FOR INJURED EMPLOYE SURE WAY TO GET Recovered by Romolo Ranieri in Superior Court—Had Full When Staging Broke at Mill Addition at Plainfield—Mrs. Ruth Glassbrenner Cooper Given a Divorce. ——— The case of Romolo Ranieri of Nor- wich against the B. F. Smith Construc- tion company of New Bedford, a suit to recover $3,000 for injuries received by a fali from a staging while em- ployed by the defendant company in the construction of a mill at Plainfield, was settled before the superior court in | New London Tuesday afternoon. The settlement was for $1,250, it is under- stood. When court came in at 10.30 Tuesday morning Judge Reed gave the attor- neys an opportunity to imparl in the case of Romolo Ranieri vs. the B. F. Smith Construction company. No set- tlement being agreed upon, the judge called in the jury at 11156 a. m. and the trial of the case proceeded with Paul Wilmot of New Bedford, former. Iy a boss for the defendant company, on the stand. On direct examination by Attorney Aliyn L. Brown, Mr. Wilmot testified that the pudlocks which were used in the construction of stagings on the Lawton mills addition, which was be- ing built by the defendant company at the time that the staging gave way when Ranieri was injured, were piled on the floors when not in use, and that in moving heavy beams, girders and window sills the men often used these pudiocks for carrying or prying pu poses. The witness further stated that the pudlocks could eas become -acked or crushed in this manner, and that this was apparently what had happened to broken pudioc ch he saw in the construction company's office, and which he understood was the one that broke when the staging came down. He described the break as being a right angle break with short splinters. Mr. Wilmot was cross examined by Attorney Tracy Waller, and the plain- | Leigne of | tiff then called Walter Plainfield to the stand. He was a mor- tar carrier at the time of the accident and saw the staging give way. He also testified to the nature of the brealk in the pudiock and described the manner No More Troublesome Superfluous Hairs (The Modern Beauty) Nothing is quite so annoying to a woman as ugly fuzzy growths on the face, and while the electric needle brings relief. it is no more effective than a simple paste made with pow- dered delatone and water. This paste is spread on the objectionable hairs for 2 or 3 minutes, then rubbed off. After this treatment the skin should be washed to free it from the remain- ing delatone and it will be soft, clear and hairless. Be sure, however, that you get the real delatone. in which Ranfer! was found on the| first floor after the fall. | John Ferraris of New Bedford, | through Interpreter Dondero, testified | that he was head man of the brick | carriers and narrated how the acci- | dent happened. | After the noon recess Pietro Marar | of New Bedford, who was also a bric | carrier, testified to the same effect | Attorney Thomas M. Shields then cali- led to the stand John DePinta of Nor- wich, who fell on the staging at the | same time with Ranieri, and he told of | | the accident. The court then took a short recess | to enable Dr. William T. Browne, the | | next witness for the plaintiff, to ar- range to exhibit his X-ray photographs lof Ranieri's fractured wrists to the | | jury. 1 During the recess it was announced | to the judge that a settlement had | finally been agreed upon between the: attorneys and the court thereupon called in the jury and dismissed it for { the dav.

There is one sure way that never remove dandruff completely and that is to dissolve it. This de- stroys it entirely. To do tnis, just, get about four ounces of plain, ordi- | nary liquld arvon; apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten | the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. By morning most, if not all of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications will completely entirely destroy, every single sign and trace of it no mat- ter how much dandruff you may have. You will find, too, that all itching | and digging of the scalp will stop in- | stantly, and your hair will be fluffy, ' lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better. If you want to keep your hair look- ing rich, do by all means get rid of | dandruff, for nothing destroys the hair S0 quickly. It not only starves tne hair and makes it fal out, but 1t makes | it stringy, straggly, dull, dry, brittle and lifeless, and everybody notices it. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store. It is inexpensive, and four ounces @ all yon will need. This simple remedy has never been known to fail. this vear, running from the house to the float, and the recently purchased canoe has arrived and will be at the disposal of the club members.
