You must try it to convince yourseli that it is better than the dentifrice you are now using, be it cream, paste, liquid or chalk. Every drawback of the existing dentifrices was overcome before Albodon was offered for sale. Albodon has all the anti- scrtic virtue of the liquid; all the abrasive value of | chalk; all the convenience | of the paste in tubes— and yet Albodon cleans and polishes, which a liquid can- not do; it is not mussy and wasteful like a powdered chalk; it is not doughy and gritty, like pastes, Here Are the Improvements Albodon contains the highest percentage of actual cleansing and lishing_ properties of any denti- rice on the market, so it is certain to clean best. It is sufficiently but safely an- tiseptic without containing a dangerous chemical Itis absolutely free from grit. It has no coloring matter. It is more economical than any other dentifrice because less of it is required for each cleansing. It has a delightful “‘smack”—a likable taste that leaves the mouth cool and refreshed— and it is perhaps the only cream or Fs.ste which positively will not harden under any climatic con- ith the cap on ditions whateve; o off.

A negro whose name is in doubt is INJURIES. at the Lawrence hospital suffering from serious injuries to the head which are likely to prove fatal. The man was found unconscious Tuesday morning lying alongside the New Ha- ven road. tracks near Hallam street, New London. It is not known how the man incurred the injuries. The negro has been unconscious most of the time he has been at the hospital but he regained consclous- ness long enough to give his name as Noah Cunningham of Danville, Va., to the hospital authorities. At a board- ing house where the man is supposed to have stayed, it was said his name was Simon Hall and his place of res- idence as Danville. Cunningham or Hall was found by members of the switching crew . about 100 feet west of the Hallam Street crossing and Night Yardmaster James Finnegan was immediately notified. Dr. F. M. Dunn was quickly summoned and found that the man was seriously injured. He had him hurried to the Law- rence hospital where it was found that the negro was suffering from three lacerations of the scalp and probable fractures-of the skull, besides a laceration of the right hip and oth- er_injuries. There seems to be no doubt that the negro received the injuries by ,being struck by a train but whether he was wallZg the track or -was injured while attempting to board or alight from a train is not known. He las not been conscious sufficiently long to be able to tell how he received the in- juries. The negro is about five feet nine inches high and weighs about 190 pourds. He is well developed and was in workingman’s attire. A 44 calibre Winchester revolver a foot long was found on his person and all six cham- bers were fully loaded. The negro had evidently be imbibing freely. SHORE LINE BOILER EXPENSE WAS $11,000 Public Utilities Takes Up Matter of Complaints of Service. The public utilities commission hav- ing received a number of complaints that the service of the Shore Line Electric Railway Co. has not been satisfactory, held a conference with of- ficers of the company Monday, says a Hartford despatch. One of those c plaints come from the Essex 1 and Power Co. and another residents of Madison. The commis- sion decided to ask the officials of the company just what the trouble was. The operation of the plant is in the hands of the J. G. White Co. of New York, which was represented by J. G. R. Choate ,vice president, and J P. Ripley, railway engineer of the com- pany. R. W. Perkins, president of the Shore Line Electric Co., and General Manager Callaghan were also in at- tendance. From the statements made it seem- ed that the trouble was caused by the disintegration of the boilers of the plant at Saybrook. On Aug. 12 the boilers were examined by {inspectors of the insurance company with which they were insured and pronounced all right. A few weeks later the tubes in the boiler began to disintegrate. The boilers were declared to be all right in July and in a few weeks they went all to pieces, sald Commissioner Hale. ~ General Manager Callaghan said the company had spent $11,000 during the past summer in repairs.

He declared that ths road has_ the highest ual cost of operation of any railroad in the United States. His re- marks evidently were intended more for rate argument purposes than as in- vestment news. “We have previously pointed out that the New Haven in the past year made over $2,000,000 extraordinary charges for maintenance, increasing operating costs to that extent. Its ratio of expenses to gross, however, was below that of numerous other large eastern roads. “New Haven, of course, spends a lot of mcney for equipment rental, which in the bookkeeping methods prescribed is not listed under expenses. Returns for -the past flscal twelvemonth will show the abnormal debit balance of $2,188,000 for freight car hire, as con- trasted with only -a - smal. debit in 1915-15, and with credits in every pre- vious year back to 1910. “The percentage of the New Haven's expenses proper to its revenues in the year ended June 30, 1916, was 66.93, against 70.54 for Pennsylvania, 71.08 for Baltimore and Ohio, 69.51 for Bos- ton and Maine, and higher ratios than the New Huven's various otber eastern roads. The average ratio for all the big roads in the United States was 63.36 per cent. last year, against over 70 per cent. in the preceding two years, and in recent vears the New Haven’ ratio has run below the average ratios of the big eastern roads. In 1915 New Haven’s ratio, 67.49 per cent., was well under that of other leading roads the east. Due in important part the anti-Mellen crusade, the New Ha- o ran up to 72.3% per cent.
