Rheuma, the wonderful rheumatism remedy sold by Lee & Osgood and all druggists, gives quicker and more lasting relief than other remedies cost- ing many-times as much. Rheuma gets at once into the blood and purifies it, allowing it to feed freely into the veins and arteries and passes the deadly poisonous secre- tions into the bowels and kidneys, from which they are quickly thrown off in a natural, healthy way. Read what a‘ reputable physician says about Rheuma:. “I have made a most careful investigation of the form- ula employed in the manufacture of Rheuma, and I heartily recommend it as a remedy for all forms of rheuma- tism, gout, and .complications arising from neglect ‘of these diseases in their early stages. .On the basis of: the formula used alone, I find Rheuma far in advance of the methods -gener- ally employed in the treatment of rheumatism,. -and altogether ' different In_composition from the remedies. us- ually prescribed.” This should: give any sufferer- from rheumatism - confidence in trying Rheuma. It ‘is' so inexpensive you cannot fi.flord to -do. without it. Whoopi g. -Cough. Well—everyone knows ‘the effect of ne forests on coughs. Dr. Bell's ine-Tar-Honey Is a remedy which brings quick relief for whooping cough, loosens the mucous, soothes the lining of the throat and lungs, and makes the coughing spells,les# severe.

The finding and award by Dr. James J. Donohue, compensation commission- er; was filed on Monday with the clerk of the superior court in the claim made against the American Strawboard company by Edward Ulams of 59 High street. Ulams, who was employed in the company’s_paper mill at Thamesville, was awarded the lump sum of $27.25 for five weeks' compensation, with $1 additional, which was the sum he had paid to a physician. The claimant was injured on May 6, 1934, while in the employ of the com- pany, consisting of a sprain and con- tusion of the'right leg below the knee, resulting in an incapacity which ex- tended over seven weeks. In his finding, Commissioner Dono- hue states thit there was some con- flicting testimony as to the exact place of the injury, and also as to the date when the claimant showed his hurt. The only material witnesses were the claimant and Foreman Martin Miller of the strawboard company. The claimant stated that the injury was caused by a truck suddenly tipping forward while heavily loaded and the handle striking him beneath the knee in the calf of the leg, the injury occur- ring in the stock room. Foreman Miller stated that he saw the claimant fall outside on the tracks and not In the stock room, also that he showed him the injured leg about the COAST DEFENSE PRACTICE COMING IN JUNE State Companies Will Be at Fort H. G. Wright Then. Coast defense exercises for the Con- necticut Coast artillery will be held at Fort Wright, June 10 to 19, inclu- sive. Major Edward A, Shuttleworth, U.

SAVING MONEY BY SANATORIUM REFRIGERATORS Experience Shown at Shelton Meriden Last Year. and At the monthly meeting of the state tuberculosis commission in the capi- tol at Hartford, Monday, reports were received of the operation of the refrig- erators in the institutions in Meriden and Shelton. In Meriden there was a saving for the year of $601 and at Shelton of $500. This saving repre- sented the difference between the cost of running the refrigerators and the cost of ice used at the institutions during the previous year, when all the ice was purchased. It does not in- clude the cost of cartage, which was also saved. The installation of each refrigerating plant cost $2,000 and it is expected that in three years or so the state will be reimbursed for the outlay in- volved in the first cost by the amount saved in the production’ of ice. In addition to this saving there is the advantage of having, from the san- itary point of view, the meats and other articles of fooq kept in the re- frigerators in a perfectly clean con- dition.

PRODUCTION OF DIAMONDS GREATLY CURTAILED. Some of Biggest Minss Closed Since August—Largest Percentage of Gems Come Here. (Special to The Bulletin.) Washington, D. C., March §—*“War has worked a greater disturbance in the production of diamonds than al- most™of any other commodity,” says a bulletin just issued by the National Geographic society. “Not only has the cutting of these gems almost ceased, but the largest diamond mines in the world have been shut down since last August. More than 90 per cent, of the annual diamond output comes from South Africa, from mines within the war area whose operation has been suspended. It is feared 1 that the Antwerp diamond dustry has been ruined past rep the Rue de Pelican has been des In Amsterdam, the other great dia- mon-cutting and polishing center, work has almost completely halted. The workrooms of Londgn and Pa are reported to be as duiet as those of the Dutch. “Diamond production erable geographical localization. The stones were produced through the centuries in India, and many are still mined there, though few of this out- put leaves the country. Likewise, the diamond production of South America is of little importance in connection with the world’s supply. South Africa is the great diamond source, and the greatest part of its product is pur- chased by the Diamond Syndicate, with headquarters in London, which takes the entire product of the De Beers Consolidated Mines, Ltd. This syndicate through its centralized con- trol of the diamond industry has been able to fix the world’s price for these rare gems, “The machinery by which the nice balance between supply and demand necessary to the maintaining of dia- monds in superior relationship to other Is of consid- commodities of life was devised by Cecil Rhodes. Many millions of dol- lars worth of these stones were taken each year at the mines near Kimberley, the Premier mine in the Transvaal, and the mines of German Southwest Afri- ca. It is estimateq that the total dia- mond production of the mines of South Africa has reached the enormous sum of $750,000,000. In a single year, 1913, the combined outputs of the De Beers and the Premier mines amounted in volue to $57,000,000, while German Southwest Africa produced during the same year diamonds valued at $10,750, The United States takes the larg- est percentage of these gems. “Some of the wealthiest houses in Europe are included among the man- agers of the Diamond Syndicate. A great amount of capital has been tied up in the quantities of stones held back from the market by the Syndi- cate in order that prices might be maintained. There is, therefore, little cause for fearing that those who have the money and the desire to buy need feel the effects of a diamond famine. The diamond_ surplus from the years of peace will likely cover any demands which may be made during the war- time. The demand for diamefds in this country, according to experts, is remaining good despite the war, be- ing _about 85 per cent. of normal. “Diamond-production has been the backbone almost of South African de- velopment. It has increased in im- portance from year to year, the out- puts being limited practically only to the amount of capital which the Euro- pean houses dealing in these precious crystals could afford to tie up in their purchase. In 1913, the mines of Ger- man Southwest Africa produced about 1,570,000 carats, and an Antwerp Syn- dicate which was formed for the tak- ing of the whole of this production, TURN HAIR DARK WITH SAGE TEA Grandma kept her locks dark, glossy and thick with a simple mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur. The old-time mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked and faded hair is _grand- mother’s treatment, and_ folks are again using it to keep their hair a good, even color, which is quite sen- sible, as we are living in an age when a youthful appearance is of the great- advantage. Nowadays, though, we don’t have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and the mussy mixing at home. All drug stores sell the ready-to-use product called “Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound” for about 50 cents a bottle. It is very popular because nobody can discover it has been ap- plied. Simply moisten your comb or a soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, but what delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and Sul- phur is that, besides beautifully dark- ening the hair after a few applica- tions, it also produces that soft lustre and appearance of abundance which is so attractive; besides, prevents dandruff, " itching scalp and falling r. failed. Just before the war a con- ference of all the leading diamond in- terests was called in London whose object was the adoption of plans for a better control of the ever-swelling South African diamond output.” BIBLE AND LITERARY SOCIETY.
