5 NORWICH BULLETIN, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1616 An Easy Way to Increase Weight Good Advice for Thin Folks The trouble with most thin folks who wish to gain nweight is that they insist on drugging their stomachs or stuffing it with greasy foods: rubbing on use- less “fiesh creams,” or following some foolish physical culture stunt, while the real cause of thinness goes untouched. You cannot get fat until your digestive tract assimilates the food vou eat. There Is a preparation known to re- Jable druggists almost evervwhere Wwhich seemingly embodies the missing clements needed by the digestive or- Zans to help them convert food into Tich, fat-laden blood. This ‘modern treatment is called Sargol and has been termed the greatest of flesh-builders. Sargol aims through regenerative, re- constructive powers to coax the stom- &ch and intestines to literally soak up the fattening elements of your food and pass them into the blood, where they are carricd to the starved, broken- down cells and tissues of your body. You can readily picture what result this ‘amazing transformation should produce as with increased weight the Cheeks 6l out, hollows about neck. shoulders and bust disappear and from 10 to 20 pounds of solid, healthy flesh is added to the body is abso- lutely harmless, efficient.

Good news bears when it is repeating, and confirmed after a long lapse of time, even if we hesitated to believe it at first hearing, we feel secure in accepting its truth now. The following experience of a Nor- wich man is confirmed after years. D. J. Brown, 6 Summer St, Nor- wich, says: “The results that followed the use of Doan’s Kidney Pills in my case were satisfactory. I got this medicine at N. D. Sevin & Son's Drug Store and it proved effective strengthening my kidneys and re- lieving other symptoms of kidney trouble.” (Statement August 27, 1908.) OVER TWO YEARS LATER Mr. Brown sald: “Kidney trouble and I have been strangers for a long time.” Price 50c, at all dealers.

Leander De Forge of Moosup, 19 years old, was arrested Monday even- ing by Officer George Bliven on a charge of intoxication. He was ar- raigned before Justice Benjamin R. Briggs Tuesday morning at Central Village and was sentenced to 30 days in jail. Owing to his youth and his promises never to be fheld on this charge again, De Forge's sentence was suspended for six monthe, Liquor Sold to Minors. The matter of giving intoxicating liquonr to minors is now under inves- tigation and the horities will en- deavor to find out where these minors are obtaining their liquor, and it is be- lieved that immediate action will take place. It is no unusual sight to see young fellows apparently 13 or 19 years of age, and under, intoxicated on Saturday night. The conduct of these younz men is outrageous and the authorities of the town are deter- mined to put an end to it at once. The town of Plainfield may be a license town, but that does not allow boys under age to buy intoxicating liquor. Benefit Club Meets. There was a meeting of the Benefit club in the vestry of the Congrega- tional church Tuesday evening which was well attended.

Stockholm, Sweden, Feb. 23.—(Cor: respondence of The Associated Press) The British blockade of Germany has failed because it came too late, cording to the Swedish press Swedish business men. As far as Sweden and the other Scandinavian countries are concern- ed the blockade only became really effective last April. IFor eight months prior to that time or since the very start of the war, the Germans, anti- cipating England's tactics, were pui chasing enormous quantities of mil tary supplies, especialiy copper, cot- ton, antimony and tin, through Swe- den, Denmark and Norway. Import- ers here are convinced that by the time the blockade was perfected Ger- and many had stored up such quantities of these and other war materials as to meet all her needs for possibly two_year: The claims made by the Britisl sovernment that ereat quantities war material have been smuggled in- to Germany through eden are bit- terly resented by Swedish merc These claims, which have been as a reason for placing all restrictions on Swedish mercantile trade, a d on statistics show great’ incry in_Sweden's impor! tions frou land and America. The Swedish merchants point out, how- ever, that prior to the war, Sweden was’ a heav er of German The ¥ practically par- 200ds. alyzed this trade and the country had to_turn to other markets. In addition, moreover, it is out that Russia has placed orders for war supplies ir and that mauch of the raw material to fill these crders had to be imported from England or the United States. The blockade has seriously interfered with this indust In fact, it has forced the price of many Sorts of metals here higher than they are in Germany. For example $1.40 a_pound is being paid here for tin, $2.37 a pound for antimony and $125 for aluminum. An opinion frequently _expressed here is, that, as far as the Scandinay- ian countries are concerned, England has only Succeeded in creating ill- fecling among the neutrals by her blockade without seriously injuring Germany. has pointed normous Sweden BITUMINOUS COAL OPERATORS AND MINERS TO MEET In New York Today in an Attempt to Adjust New Wage Scale. New York, Feb. 23—Operators and organized miners of the central com- petitive fields, comprising = the soft coal regions of western Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and llinois, will meet here’ tomorrow to make another at- tempt to reach an agreement on a new wage scale to take the place of the contracts that expire in those states March 31. The miners and operators were recently in session in Mobile, Ala., for about ten days and did not reach an agreement on any one of the 11 demands formulated by the Indiarapolis conventfon of the miners. The demand of the union men whick calls for the weighing of all coal be fore it is screened and for the pay ment of wages on the mine run basis is one of the two important questions to be settled. The other is the wage increase asked for—ten per cent. per ton for miners, ten per cent. for all dead work and vardage and twenty per cent. for all men paid by the day. When ‘the joint conference recessed at Mobile the mine workers and op- erators were deadlocked over the mine run proposition, the most seri- ous opposition coming from the west- ern nia employers. The Ohio miners are now working under the mine run system, with certain modifications. In Indiana there is a double standard while in Illinois the men have the mine run basis, western Pennsylvania operators are opposed to mine run, they say, because it places them at a disadvantage with competitors in unorganized fields. John P. White, president of the United Mine Workers of America, in a statement given out tonight, Said he felt a satisfactory agreement would be reached before the soft coal men left New Yorlk. PACK TRAIN ATTACKED BY YAQUI INDIANS Three Men Killed 270 Miles South of the International Border. Douglas, Ariz, Feb. 23.—A pack train en Troute to a mine near Ta- niche. Sonora, 270 miles south of the international border, was attacked two weeks ago by 30 Yaqui Indians and three men guarding the train were Kkilled, according to persons ar- riving here today from Toniche. Residents of Toniche and San An- tonio, a nearby mining camp, later drove the Indians from the district after a days fighttng. One Indian and five townspeople were killed. ANTHRACITE COAL MINERS STRIKE AT LYKENS, PA. Because Officials Refused to Reinstate a Discharged Fireman. Harrisburg, Pa., Feh. 23.—Twelve hundred anthracite coal miners struck today at Lykens, because of the re- fusal of officials of the Susquehanna Coal company to reinstate a fireman, who, it is alleged, was discharged be- cause of refusal to load mine cars as directed by officials, a subject which has been in controversy at the mine for some time.

District Court at New Haven—Heavy Fines for Careless and Delinquent Officials. New Haven, Feb. 23.—The search of federal agents for violators of the narcotic drug laws has had results which were evident in the United States district court today. Several physicians and druggists were fined for failure to register their sales or for carelessness in keeping record: of their prescriptions for nare drugs. After Clarence F. Hotchk! druggist of Derby, had been fi §75 and costs for failure to properl record transactions, Thomas said he de Juaz. red it e be | derstood that persons convic cd “wer plaving with fire if they disrezarded the warning.” He said there || B would De jail_sentences for secom .

Gale, a veterinary surgeo; of Hariford, who sppeared to" b | DN/ N1 nearly blind when he was in the court room, was led to the bar. Mr. Spel- lacy explained that Gale had used considerable drug and had failed to keep records, saying that he claimed to have used these in colic cures while the government believed that he had dispensed it to habitual users. Clerk Pickgt had difficulty in getting Gale to s&y whether he was guilty or not guilty as he wished “to explain.” Ow- ing to his age and limited practice Mr. Spellacy recommended a $1 fine and reprimanded by the court and Judge Thomas imposed this. Dr. Rowell of Stamford. Dr. Edward E. Rowell of Stamford, a widely known physician, was charg- ed with giving away narcotic tablets 'h had been obtained on prescrip- tions in other persorns’ names. Dr. Rowell declared that he had never dispensed the drugs, but in his office he mizht have given patients a tab- let. His own failure to record dispo- sition of tablets was due to the fact that since an operation had been per- formed on him he occasionally used a narcotic to ease agonizing pain. The court gave a fine of $50. Willimantic Man Fined. Frank Smith, manager of a drig company at Willimantic, was charged with refilling a prescription for nar- cotics in violation of the law. He was fined $50 after the court had remind- ed him that a small fine was not to be mistaken for leniency. A. L. Embrey, a druggist of Stam- ford, who is said to have filled pre- scriptions for Dr. Rowell, was fined $50 for failure to record sales. Theodor Federoff, who altered his naturalization first paper in order to get a position in Bridgeport, and who has been in jail for three months, was fined $50 without costs. Violation of Postal Law. Herbert W. Neal, postmaster at Marion, in Southington, was fined $50 for violation of the postal laws in that he deposited 375 of postal funds to his own account one day intending to send a check to Hartford the next day to balance his funds. The postal in- spector dropped in that day and found the money had been wrongly deposit- ed. Neal told the court that he never had stolen a dollar or had any intent to embezzle. He simply _deposited with his own funds money that should have been kept separate, although it was only for an overnight period. Middlefield Couple Fined. Maria and Myron W. Tucker, who keep the post office in Middlefield in their home, the wife being postmist- ress, were charged, the latter with se- curing $439.32 by overcancellations in a two-year period, and the husband with embezzlement of postal funds, in that he used postal orders his wife issued to pay bills, balancing the ac- count monthly with his own money. rs. Tucker today made good the money overdrawn on cancellation ac- counts. Tucker sald he did not real- ize that borrowing postal funds was wrong when the accounts were prop- erly balanced at the end of the month. Mrs. Tucker said she did not know that in drawing her salary through cancellations she had made excessive claims. Mr. Spellacy said he could not understand why the couple had done this as both had bank accounts and property. Fines of $200 each were given. Westbrook Postal Embezzlement. > Myra J. Bushnell, for 19 years post- mistress_at Westbrook, was charged with embezzling $358.07, although the shortage had been made good. Bonds- men_ sent a letter in her behalf, sug- gesting that if there was a shortage it grew out of clerical errors. Mr. Speilacy said the postmistress was of excellent standing. A fine of $75 without costs was given. Linus Hill, a clerk in the Walling- ford post office who “to jolly a friend” sent a letter in a franked envelope, was fined $10. The grand jury had two cases be- fore it. C. L. Perry of Deep River was foreman. —_—— CANDIDATE FOR REPUBLICAN NOMINATION FOR PRESIDENT Theodore E. Burton, Former United States Senator From Ohio. Columbus, Ohio, Feb. 23.—Theodore E. Burton, former United States sen- ator from Ohio, today officially be- came a candidate for the republican nomination for president. Three dec- larations of candidacles for delegate- at-large at the republican national convention filed with Secretary of State Hildebrant were accompanied by formal statements, signed by Mr. Burton giving permission for use of his name in connection with the pres- idential nomination. The declarations were filed by United States Senator Warren G. Harding, Governor Frank B. Willis and Willlam Cooper Proc- tor, Cincinnati, manufacturer. Each declared his first choice for the presidential nomination to be Mr. Burton, but did not indicate a second choice ‘as required by the Ohio pri- mary law. Secretary of State Hilde- brant, however, has ruled that the naming of a second choice is not ne- cessary when only one candidate for president has notified him of his can- didacy. Only tomorrow and Friday rematn in which candidates for nomination for president and delegates to the na- tional conventions of both republican and democratic parties may flle dec- larations. The primary election will be held April 25. TO OPERATE STEAMSHIPS FLYING AMERICAN COLORS. An Importing and Exporting Firm of New York Forms $5,000,000 Company.

New L.ondon YA\ of tions are pending for the purchase of “Cadillac—Standard of the World” —a phrase_ or a fact? THE Cadillac, in fact, the Standard of the World? Is it the one car which is accepted as a pattern of excellence and efficiency? Look back over the past twelve years and ask yourself what other car has wielded so wide an influence over the industry. Ask yourself if motor cars, as a whole, are not better cars today because of Cadil- lac progressiveness and Cadillac initiative. You recall that the first Cadillac was also the first practical, enduring motor car. 5 = You remember the period in which the Cadillac inaugurated the thorough stand- ardization of parts. You remember that the Cadillac accomplished also the first production in large quantities of a really high grade car at a moderate price. The introduction by the Cadillac of electric starting and lighting is still fresh in your memory. And you know finally, that the Cadillac as a climax to its other constructive con- tributions to the industry, brought forth the high-speed, high-efficiency V-type engine. Around the world that V-type multi-cylinder engine is admittedly at the zenith of design and of efficiency. And the Cadillac has pushed the process of perfecting the V-type engine to the highest point yet attained. Upon its first appearance, the Cadillac Eight received the unique tribute of a larger purchase on the part of other makers than any other car has probably ever . known. Its scientific design and superb workmanship compelled their most intense admir- 2 ation—its performance was pronounced nothing short of marvelous. If the Cadillac had not been the standard of the world before, the V-type multi- cylinder Cadillac would have made it so. It has become the standard of the world in smoothness and in swift acceleration, in flexibility and in hill climbing power. It is the world’s standard in its incomparable roadability, its luxury, its ease of operation and control, and in absence of fatigue after long journeys. These characteristics, added to its world-wide reputation for dcgendable and endur- ing service, have furnished for the industry, new inspirations—new incen- tives—new goals for ambitions. Is not the Cadillac deserving of the title it has so long and so honorably held? Is not the Cadillac, in fact, the Standard of the World? Styles and Prices A Norwich WOULD FURTHER DIVEST N. H. ROAD (Continued from Page One) In its steamship companies, “provided the consent of the Interstate Com- merco Comrgission was secured” and favoreq the retention also of the New Haven's interest in all controlled rail- road companies except the Rutland, in- cluding leased lines. The New York, Ontario and Western holdings, how- ever. it was reported, might well be sold If the transaction could be ar- ranged without financial loss to the road. Limitation of the dividends of the New Haven company to not more than 5 per cent. was recommended. This suggestion was made, it was explained, as a means of providing against reduction In book values and actual losse sto be incurred through sale of the several properties as ordered by the federal dissolution de- cree, and recommended by the public service commission. The commission suggested that the 5 per cent. dividend limitation be made effective until such time as the net amount of such losses had been offset by appropriations from earnings or by contributions trom stockholders. Choice Given Company. “The company will have the choice of either making good the waste as soon as it can. or continuing indefin- itely the limitation upon its dividend rate,” the report continued. The committee said that ti had not attempted to investigate such holdings of the New Haven as were ordered s0ld by the federal court in the recent Sherman act proceedings. Its aim, according to the report, was to “de- nger Salon and Roadster, $2080. Three passenger Victorla, $2400. Four , $3450.

After detailing the course of its in- vestigation the commission announced its conclusion that the great majority of the “unauthorized acts were bevond any power which Connecticut alone could give the New Haven comparty” through certain of these acts, the re- port declared, “the New Haven has come into possession of power to en- gage, either directly or indirectly through subsidiary companies, in practically any known kind of busi- ness, Inciuding a special form of banking and that it has engaged “apart from rallroad operation, in the street rallway business, in various forms of transportation by water, in the express business, in the manufac- ture and supply of gas and electricity, in the supply of water, in the con- struction business, in the real estate business and in the mining and sale of coal.” Unauthorized Acts. The commission further reached the conclusion that Massachusetts has in no way sanctioned these unauthorized acts or lost any of its powers with respect to them through delay or neg- lect. Question of Federal Incorgoration. The question of federal incorpora- tion of the New Haven company was suggested by the commission as de- serving of serious study. “A system under which a single undivided cor- poration is in the same time three separate corporations Is wholly illogi- cal and seems contrary to good order and reason. It would tend to sim- plification if the New Haven company could cast loose from its three incon- sistent and inharmonious state char- ters and reorganization under ong sin- gle charter granted by the ‘ederal government, carefully limited and $3600. by this state was necessary, the com- mission susgested four possible courses to be pursued (1)—A suit to restrain the unau- thorized acts such as was brought in the case of those trolley companies, (2)—Revocation of the charter of the company by the general court. (3)—Forfeiture of the charter of the company by legal proceedings. (4)—Peaceful adjustment of differ- ences by mutual agreement. The last was advocated as the course which should first be tried. In outlining in general terms the basis upon which such an adjustment should be made, the commission stated Differs from Individual- Offender. ‘The New Haven company differs from an individual offender. It is part, and a very vital part of the structure of the community. No im- portant public interests should be sur- rendered, but every effort should be made to reach an adjustment which will not cripple this agency of public transportation or hinder it from se- curing the funds which are necessary to its continued development.” Waterbuay. — A - lecture " on the European war was given Sunday even- ing in the hall of St. Anne's parish by Father Gauthler, a member of the Red Cross servicé, who has just re- turned from.the war zgne after duty in France.
