NORWICH BULLETIN, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 10, 1915 SURE as Sunrise! Any Corn, With “Gets.It” on It, Is an Absolute “Goner.” Yes, it’s the simplest thing in the world to get rid of a corn—when you use “Gets-It,” the world's greatest corn-ridder. Really, it's almost a pleasure to have corns just to see o q('“\\!,!'u\\-lil/(ty\\)n ) o i »: OFETT= “Gets-It” Puts Your Feet in Cl them come off with “Gets-It.” Tt just loosens the corn from the true flesh, easily, and then makes it come “clean off.” 48 hours ends corns for keeps. 1t makes the use of tape corn- squeezing bandages, irritating salves, knives, scissors and razors look ridic- ulous. Get rid of those corns quickly, surely, painlessly—just easily,—with “Gets-Its” For warts and bunions, too. It's the 20th century way. “Gets-It” is sold by all druggists, 25c_a bottle, or sent direct by E. Lawrence & C Chicago. STAFFORD SPRINGS Purse of $300 Presented ltalian Band —Grange Elects John P.

HEAVY MEAT EATERS HAVE SLOW KIDNEYS Eat less meat you feel Backachy or have bladder trouble—Take glass of Salts. No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flush- ing the kidneys occasionally, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which nxcites the kidneys, they become over-worked from the strain, get sluggish and fail to filter the waste and poisons from the blood, then we get sick. Nearly all rheuma- tism, headaches, liver trouble, nerv- ousness, dizziness, sleeplessness and urinary disorders come from sluggish kidneys. The moment you feel a dull ache in the kidneys or your back hurts or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular ‘of passage or at- tended by a sensation of scalding, stop eating meat and get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any pharmacy; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast and in a few days your lkidpeys will \act ®fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of pes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for genera- tions to flush and stimulate the kid- neys, also to neutralize the acids in urine so it no longer causes irritation, thus ending bladder weakness. Jad Salts is_inexpensive and can- not injure; makes a delightful effer- Vescent lithia-water drink which everyone should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and active and the blood pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney complications. . .

On Saturday boxes in which con- tributions may be dropped toward buying Christmas dinners for the poor of Danielson, will be placed in stores about town. Last year the giving was 8o generous that there was a sufficient sum not only to buy the dinners, but as well to supply some clothing, coal and wood to families during the re- mainder of the winter. The_boxes are put out by the Danielson Benev- olent soclety. Nurse Needs White Cloth. The Civic federation has made an appea! for old white cloth—linen or cotton—for use by the visiting nurse in her work about town.

Evidence of Freight Congestion. It might be difficult to convince a studious geography class that Rotter dam is nearer to Danielson than East Liverpool, Ohio, but such seems to be the case in so far as ability to get goods here quickly from the two points mentioned is concerned. W. L. Dixon sald Thursday morning that he haa just unpacked a foreign shipment, originating in Germany and shipped via Rotterdam, New York and Provi- | dence, that had left war-stricken Europe when another consignment of goods from East Liverpool, Ohio, was put on the cars, this shipment yet un- received here. This may be taken to indicate how severe the congestion of freight traffic is between the east and middle west. POLICE DOG UNCAPTURED. H. I. Baer’s Rosa Seen in Many Lo- calities, But Cannot Be Caught. Henri 1. Baers police dog is becom- ing a famous fugitive up in the East Kiilingly section. She—her name is Rosa—is also a tantalizing runaway. She has been seen day after day of the period since she escaped from the Palisade kennels several weeks ago by taking a midnight plunge through the second story window of the dog hos- pital at the kennels, but she is as shy as a woodland fawn and no stratagem yet devised has been suf- fielently subtle to result n her cap- ure. Rosa comes almost daily to the Val- ley schoolhouse at East Killingly to recelve what remains from the noon hour lunches of the pupils there. As frequently she appears at Mr. Baer's kennels to feed on the leavings in the pans put out for the other dogs, but speeds away immediately upon the ap- proach of anyone. She is a will o’ the wisp, flashing into view here, there, and evervwhere In that section’ and at Elmyille, Dayville and as far east as the Rhode Island border. Rosa seems to thrive on her nomadic habits and appears_prosperous indeed. Many farmers are frightened at poor, timid Rosa, belleving her to be dan- merous. Mr. Baer says this is abso- lutely ridiculous, but the impression is caused probably by her wolf-like appearance and the name “police dog." Rosa is but ten months old, very gen- tle, but also very sensitive; in fact, extremely so. cross word sends Children Cry FOR FLETCHER'S CASTORIA the work will be more difficult|® Cargill Council to Confer Degrees— G.
