A local business man who says he heartlly approves of the Business Men’s association plan to boom Dan- ielson, to advertise Danielson and for local people to spend their money in Danielson, is suggesting that what is sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander and he is for having the bus- iness men practice what they preach —those of them who are in the habit of buying things abroad, for the sav- ing of a few pennies, that might be purchased here, to help some other business man share in the benefits that would accrue from the sale. The sug- gestion was made with good will and without animosity, the object being to get the mutual benefit in buying and selling plan working on the broad- est possible basis. MEXICAN WRECK. Mrs. John Howland Report: Horror When 600 Were A letter received in Boston from Mrs, John Howland who with her hus- band, Rev. John Howland, has been at Guadalajara, Mexico, where they have been engaged in missionary work for years, tells something of the ex- periences they have had in getting out of the troubled country and of their efforts to make their way to Cal- ifornia. Mrs. Howland is a daugh- ter of Deacon W, H. Chollar of Broad street and Rev. Mr. Howland is a former principal of Killingly High school. They spent much of last sum- mer in Danielson. Miss Marion D. Chollar, sister of Mrs, Howland, said Monday afternoon that nothing additional to what ap- peared in Sunday’s press despatches, except greater detail contained in a letter received here, had reached Dan- ielson, but the expectation of Rev. and Mrs. Howland was to reach San Francisco March 4. They have not announced their arrival at that city. The following article relative to the Mexican experiences referred to ap- peared in a New York paper Sunday Boston, March 6.—Report of a rail- road accident in Mexico last January in which 600 lives were lost is con- tained in a letter received today by the American board of commissioners for forelgn missions from one of its representatives at Manzanillo, on the Mexican west coast. The letter was written on February 14. According to the writer, after the entry of the soldiers into Guadalajara, which was captured by Carranza’s troops en January 18, the governor or- dered that their families should be brought up from Colima on a special train. “There were more than twenty cars,” the letter continued, “simply packed Pwith humanity, the roofs covered with men and women and many slung under the cars, in a most perilous position even for ordinary travel, ®At the top of the steepest grade, coming down the engineer lost control and the cars rushed down the long in- cline, throwing off human freight on both sides an~ finally plunging into an abyss. ne hundred people were on the train, and only six were unhurt. More than 600 were killed outright. Some of the Yaqui Indians committed suicide when they were told of the accident to their families and others have sworn vengeance. All the railroad men ;Vere killed, so there is none to suf- er.” The letter was written by Mrs. John Howland, who, with her husband and Louis B. Fritts, was escaping from Guadalajara, where they had been con- nected with the board’s mission sta- tion. They were endeavoring to reach <California, but when they arrived at Manzanillo their steamer had departed. They left Guadalajara on the first train operated on the line after the ac- cident occurred. It is believed by officials ~ of the board that they are now somewhere in Northern Mexico on their way to the United States. Mrs. Howland is well known to the board and her report is regarded as undoubtedly correct.

How Thin People Can Put On Flesh A New Discovery Thin men and women—that big, hearty, filling dinner you ate last night. What became of all the fat-producing nourishment it contained? You haven't gained in weight one ounce. That food passed from your body like unburned coal through an open grate. The ma- terial was there, but your food doesn’t work and stick,’and the plain truth is you hardly get enough nourishment from your meals to pay for the cost of cooking. This is true of thin folks the world over. Your nutritive organs, your functions of assimilation, are sad’ 'y out of gear and need reconstruction. Cut out the foolish foods and funny sawdust diets. Omit the flesh cream rub-ons. Cut out everything but the meals you are eating now and eat with every one of those a single Sargol tab- let. “In two weeks note the difference, Five to eight good solid pounds of healthy, “stay there” fat should be the net result. Sargol charges your weak, stagnant blood with millions of fresh new red blo@l corpuscles—gives the blood the carrying power to deliver ev- ery ounce of fat-making material in g:ur food to every part-of your body. rgol, too, mixes with your food and prepares it for the blood in easily as- similated form. ~Thin people gain all the way from 10 fo 25 pounds a month while taking Sargol, and the new flesh stays put. rgol tablets are a scien- tific combination of six of the best flesh-producing elements known to chemistry.

MEN! HERE'S THE QUICKEST, SUREST DAN- DRUFF CURE KNOWN. Thin, brittle, colorless and scragsy hair is mute evidence of a neglected scalp; of dandruff—that awful scurf. There is nothing so destructive to the hair as dandruff. It robs the hair of its lustre, its strength and its very life; eventually producing a feverish- ness and itching of the scalp, which if not remedied causes the hair roots to shrink, loosen and die — then the e hair falls out fast. A little Danderine tonight — now — anytime — will sure- 1y save your hair. Get a 25 cent bottle of Knowlton's Danderine from any store or toilet counter, and after the first ap- plication your hair will take on that life, lustre and luxuriance which is so beautiful. It will become wavy and fluffy and have the appearance of abundance; an incomparable gloss and softness, but what will please you |Has Removed his Office to the 'S most will be after just a few week’ use, when you will actually see a lot of fine, downy hair—new hair—grow- ing all over the scalp. e g oo As previously announced we have opened our Salesroom and Service Station for i Reo Cars i We have the New Reo Four Cylinder Demonstrator here at your disposal.
