TREATMENT FOR HORSES IN HOT WEATHER. Suggestions for Summer Months Made by Humane Society. The Connecticut Humane society is distributing throughout the state a leaflet regarding the treatment of horses during hot weather, which reads as follows: Give extra and frequent rest on hot days. Feed lightly and rest well at noon- time. Rest your horse by removing har- mess and collar. Leave him standing unless overheated. Avoid overloading: with a fair loed, work moderately. in the shade, In traveling long distances, drive slowly. ‘Water at short intervals, and not to excess. If exhausted by heat, cool the head with ice. Give a cool bath, a good bed and plenty of air at night. Remove friction from galls by cup- ping the collar. Wash harness sores with cold water and castile soap. Avoid high checks, and check rea- sonably if at all. Protect your horse from torment in fly time. Proper shoeing protects the feet from hot pavements. Apply wet clay or water compress to fore feet at night. Try the virtue of a bran mash or green grass weekly. Good care at night will make up for a hard day. These humane suggestions are made in the interest of the horse, but do not forget that he is your property and the value of many horses is depreciat- ed by thelir treatment in hot weather.

For the bill for the end of the week at the Davis theatre, The Exposition Girls changed their programme on Thursday to The Cabaret Frolics,which was given with their own special scen- ery, and a complete change of music and costumes from those seen earlier in_the week. ‘With Miss Edna Mitchell in the lead, the girls gave the musical tabloid a sprightly and fun-producing rendering, while Mr. Parent, the comedian, with the two other men in the cast, contrib- uted a good share to the fun and mu- sic. The novelty feature was the Charlie Chapin Kiddies, each one in the number an exact reproduction of the famous Charlie, and they were a scream from start to gnish. On the bill of photoplays the big drama was a Majestic entitled The Come-back. There also were some Mutual Movies and a Keystone comedy with Fatty and Charlie. Thermometer Went to 38. At 3.30 o'clock Thursday morning a Trading Cove observer reported the thermometer at 38.

It does your heart good to see how easily and quickly any corn comes out when you put “GETS-IT” on! And then when you've gone along for years ing everything, when you've sat up nights wrapping up your toes in ba: d- ages, smearing on salves that rub off or swell up the corn, pasting on cotton plasters that make corns pop-eved, slaughtering vour toes with razors, jabbing them with knives and pruning to the quick with scissors—and then you put on 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 =old by drugsists everywhere, 25c a bottle, or sent direct by E. Lawrence & Co., Chicago. e GAVE INSURANCE AGENTS TALK ON HONESTY Principal Crandall at Hartford Meet- ing—The Foundation of Success. The 20 or more Connecticut agents of the New England Mutual Life In- surance company, were entertained on Wednesday by Lee C. Robens, general agent, at a luncheon at Hartford, where the Norwich field was repre- sented by Edward L. Root, George C o, and James A. Coffey, with Principal 1., M. Crandall of the Nor- hool as one of the wich Commereial s at the ernoon session. 5. W_ Allen, who is at the head of a $2,000,000 agency in New York, ad- dressed the agents upon the Best Way of Approaching and Obtaining Pro pects, and Mr. Honesty as the Business Success. Mr. Allen invited Mr. Cran- dall to be a speaker before his agency in_June. After hearing the address Mr. Crandall told his that truthful statements and ncerning your proposition will the confid of your prospect really the two sides lead to succes: win and confidence of the ladder which : In placing the sides of the ladder of success in position I would advise that a cleat be placed across the foot of the ladder to Keep it from slipping. This cleat might be called prepara- ry tion. In selling goods the nec: 3 steps in the sale are always the same whether one is selling an automobile, a railroad or a suit of clothes, The first step or round in the lad- der is to get an introduction to the ect either through advertising or his attention and this attention must be favorable. From this i ladder we go to the next, interest. The good s arouse an intense interest in pect’s mind for the goods wh selling, then he will place the round in the ladder and try to ster upon that, it is called desire. The good salesman must arouse an intense de- sire after he has created an interest. Then he takes one more step up the ladder and gets a decisfon and then action from the customer to buy. The sale is not now complete even though the goods are sold the salesman must not et the customer go until he sure that the customer is thoroughly isfied with his purchase for upon his satisfaction rests the future of h dealings with the firm. From this picture you will see that untruthful announcements or dishonesty in any respect will destroy confidence and if confidence, the sides of the ladder, is destroyed the salesman has nothing upon which to climb to successful selling for truthfulness and honesty is the real foundation and inspiration of those who win success in seliilg. If you as a representative of your com- pany realize fully that you are work- ing with the executives and not for them vou will welcome the friendly, constructivee, criticisms which are given for your benefit, to help you grow, to help you render the greatest service to your clients and your com- pany. You are here gathered for inspira- tion and after listening to the previous speakers, I am sure you have been in- spired to do greater things. If you top and think it over carefully I am sure that you will realize that it is not only inspiration that counts. Per- spiration has a good deal to do with winning success in business, If yoh want more sales remember the old time saying: “Where there's a will there's a way,” and the old say- ing, “Honesty is the best policy,” has been improved to “Honesty is the only policy,” for the advertiser or for the salesman who wishes to win perma- nent success in any line of business. Be honest, truthful, active, read, think, observe, listen and discuss and you are sure of winning success. ARTILLERYMEN AWAITING ANNUAL ENCAMPMENT. Colonel Dorsey Plans for Plenty of Practical Work at Fort Wright. The Norwich Coast Artillery com- panies, the Third and the Fifth, are anticipating with much interest now the departure for the annual encamp- ment at Fort Wright, Fisher's Island, June 10-19. The companies from all parts of the state, 13 in all, will arrive in New London on the morning of the 10th and will embark on government steamers for Fort Wright. The indications are that Connecti- cut, in propaertion to th esize of its corps, will send as meny men to sum- mer camp as any state in the union. The importance of the citizen soldiery is now being urged by President Wil- son, Secretary Garrison and others, and it has resuited in a stimulus in the national guard. It is expected that there will be about 800 men and 50 officers in the Connecticut Coast Artil- lery encampment. Colonel Dorsey plans to give the companies plenty of practical work in this encampment. Each succeeding encampment sees more and more of this tendency toward making it a thor- oughly practical affair. The day of the summer outing camps has passed and it is business every minute now. The New York Coast Artillery com- panies come to Fort Wright after the Connecticut encampment. There-—-are two New York regiments of Coast ar- tillery. They will have separate en- campments, one coming the day after the other leaves. Tt is expected that the West Point cadets will be at Wright this summer. They have been there the past few years for a two weeks’ camp, being in- structed ‘in the handling of the big guns. —_— Patience is the long road that leads to success, ‘I'@Poneous & MI_IEM cg.
