- NORWICH BULLETIN, FRIDAY, MARCH 26, “Me for ‘GETS-IT’ When I Have Corns” Simple As Saying It; Never Fails. It does your heart good to see how leaslly and quickly any corn comes out when you put “GETS-IT” on! And then when you've gone along for years trying everything, when you've sat up nights wrapping up your toes in band- ages, smearing on salves that rub off or swell up the corn, pasting on cotton plasters that make corns pop-eved, Slaughtering your toes with razors, jabbing them with knives and pruning %o the quick with scissors—and then you put on 2 drops of “GETS-IT” ‘and see your corn fall right off—why, it just looks like a miracle. Just try it.” “GETS-IT” never fails. No pain, no trouble. Use it for any corn, cal- lus, wart or bunion. “GETS-IT” is sold by druggists everywhere, 25¢ a bottle, or sent direct by E. Lawrence & Co., Chicago. RESIDUARY OF ESTATE BEQUEATHED TO YALE.

FORTUNE TELLING BILL IN HOUSE An Amended Bill Passed Which Does Not Include in Its Pro- hibition Spiritualism and Palmistry—Judiciary Com- mittee Made Unfavorable Report on Act Authorizing the Appointment of County Commissioners by the Gov- ernor—In the Senate the Judiciary Committee Reported Favorably for the Repeal of Law Requiring Five Days Lapse From Time of Issue of Marriage License Until Time of Ceremony—Unfavorable Report on Acceptance of Mystic River Drawbridge. (Special to The Bulletin.) Hartford, March 25—The first real it of the house came on Thursday ‘when the act concerning fortune tell- ing was called from the calendar for action. Mr. Martin, of Orange, asked that the matter be passed and retain its place on the calendar, as he de- sired time to consider the measure, and had an amendment which would remove palmistry from the terms of the act. Mr. Martin's effort to keep the bill on the table failed and there ‘was general discussion on the bill by Messrs, Merton, Hyde, Back, Fenn and Rogers. Finally the time came for Mr. King of Fairfield to move the previous question on debate of the Martin amendment. Then Leader Hyde took the floor in opposition to the Martin amendment and in favor of the passage of the bill. When he concluded Mr. Martin took the floor and Mr. Hyde raised the point of order that the gen- tleman from Orange was out of order as the previous question had been or- dered. ~Speaker Healy said that in fairmess to Mr, Martin he would be granted the privilege to proceed. Then Mr. Hyde stated his point of order, adding that it was the custom for the house leader only to speak after the order of the previous question. Speak- er Healy decied that this privilege applied only as applicable to the main question and not to an amendment, anqd that as a matter of fact both gen- tlemen were out of order. The Mar- tin amendment was then acted upon and passeq by a vote of 83 to 63. The bill, as amendment, was then passed, as follows: Section 1.
