A La xative for Babies Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin a Safe and Efficient Family Remedy Every member of the family is more or less subject to constipation and every home should always be supplied with a dependable remedy to prompt- ly relieve this condition. Whenever the boweis become clogged and the natural process of elimination thereby ! disturbed, the entire system is affected, and readily subject to attaci by dis- ease. Constipation is a condition that should never be neglected. Mrs. E. R. Gilbert, of Millbro, Va., says that Dr. Caldwell’'s Syrup Pepsin is a splendid laxative for children be- cause they like its pleasant taste, and it acts so easily and naturally, with- out griping or strain, and she finds it ;:ullly effective for the rest of the mily. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin that centains no opiate or narcotic drug. It is mild and gentle in its action, and does not cause pain or discomfort. Druggists everywhere sell this excellent remedy for fifty cents a bottle. To avoid imitations and ineffective substitutes be sure you get Dr. Cald- well's Syrup Pepsin. See that a fac- simile of Dr. Caldwell's signature and his portrait appear on the yellow car- ton in which the bottle is packed. A trial bottle, free of charge, can be ob- tained by writing to Dr. B. Cald- well, 465 Washington St., Monticello, Tllinois. s ——————— BASS CLEF MEMBERS ENTERTAINED PATIENTS Excellently Rendered Programme Wa Given in the Theatre at the Inst tution.

In a recent edition of the Armour magazine appears g narticle written about Henry Williams of this city who has been in the employ of the Armour Co. for the past 30 years. The article says: “We: have at Norwich a driver by the name of Henr yWilliams. Hen- ry is 65 years old and has completed 30 years of service with the Armour Company. Henry is an Indian—a full blooded Indian and a descendant of the Narragansett tribe which formerly had their reservation in the hills between New London and Norwich. In addi- tio nto driving one of our teams, he looks after the stables. Our stable equipment at Norwich, horses, wag- ons and stable combined with stack up with anly similar equipment -in any territory in the United States. Hne- ry thinks as much of the appearance of the teams as he does of his family. He has never been known to be late for work in the morning, and you can usually find him polishing up his har- ness at the stable when most of us are thinking about going to bed at night. Our two drivers at Norwich consist of Henry Williams, Sr., and his son, Henry Williams, Jr., who has been in the employ of the company for the past three and one-half years and they are the two best drivers from the standpoint of efficiency, faithfulness and loyalty that I know about around our various branch house organizations says Superintendent George A. Bast- WOo NORWICH GIRLS CLUB HELD HALLOWE’EN SOCIAL Games and Refreshments Afforded Pieasant Evening for Members. Members of the Norwich Girls’ club observed Hallowe'en Tuesday night in the form of a social i ntheir rooms i nthe Thayer building. Every- one came dressed as ghosts and short- ly before eight festivities opened with a grand ghost march. During the evening all the popular games and fun-making tricks were tried and af- forded as one expressed it “‘barrels of fun.” The glimmering future was re- vealed to the girls in an artistic man- ner by Madame Witchie, Mis Ruth Breckenridge. Refreshments of doughnuts, cake ,cheese,: sandwiches and fruit were served by the commit- tee in charge ,which comprised the followin, Miss JIone Breckinridge, chairma: Miss Grace Moore, Miss Anna Benjamiy, Miss €dna Robinson, Miss Alicia Bellows, Mis® Marion Du- hame and Miss Julia Voech. The rooms were attractively deco- rated with orange and black stream- ers, witches, cats and other Hallow- e’en suggestions. HALLOWE"EN GHOSTS! They Were Here, There and Every- where on the Streets Last Night. The masked marvels were every- where on the streets last night in ob- servance of Hallowe’en. Kiddies from the tifiest to the largest, dressed in all kinds of rigs, paraded the streets. But instead of the ghosts, witches and other Hallowe'en beings swooping downfl way was paved for a new one— Charlie Chaplin. Charlie has certainly made a hit with the kiddies and his makeup appeared to appeal more to the children than the ghastly ghosts and the cruel, hard-hearted . looking witches. One of these notorious Charlies on Main street had a bunch of kids a mile long, trailing behind, everyone flowing over with mirth and laughter and they were not of a very quiet nae ture. Several young ladies tried to baffle the public by dressing as men, perhaps they did, to some extent, but in attempts to make themselves ap- pear manly they were complete fail- ures. It can't be done. Milkmen Raise Prices. Milkmen of New London announce that their price will be nine cents per quart and five cents per pint. One of the milkmen said that this price was subject to_a raise on the first of De- cember. It was recently announced that the price would be. 10 cents a quart from Nov. 1. Ten Calls for Firemen.

Lee & Cezood Co. New London, Westerly and New Haven Men—Appeal Lewis M. Young—Woman Married Three Weeks Now Asks Divorce on Grounds of Cruelty. A record has been established by Mrs. Angeline Marguglio of 31 Orchard street, New London, who, after 28 days of wedded life, as the wife of Angelo Marguslio, has filed an action for di- vorce. The petition charges intoler- able cruelty, On ' Oct. ~Angeline Sammataro, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Angelo Sam- mataro of 31 Orchard street, became the bride of Marguglio. Last Satur- day, Oct. 28, the divorce action was filed. It is one of the most novel cases on record in the superior court. The alleged acts of cruelty on the part of the husband were perpetrated between the two dates. The bride has returned to the home of her parents. The first meeting of the couple dates back 21 days prior to the wedding. They spent a five days’ honeymoon in ‘Boston, and returning to their new home, 276 Connecticut avenue, lived together for seven da On Tuesday Mr. Marguglio express- ed his intention of filing a counter suit for divorce, and an action for $1,000 to-cover the value of wedding gifts which he says the bride has claimed as her own property. ‘The brief romance and marital life of the couple had its inception when Mr. Marguglio went to New London in September with the iIntention of opening a meat and provision store and engaged a place on Connecticut avenue. It was while he was occupied in the affairs of his proposed new en- ll::’!"grl!e that he met his prospective e. COMPLETING PLANS FOR THE COUNTY CORN SHOW, County Agent Announces List of Regu- lations and the Score Card. County Agent F. C. Warner Is com- pleting arrangements for the New London county corn show which is to be held in this city on the second day of December. He has already pre- pared a list of rules and regulations for the show. Rules and suggestions for exhibitors at the New London county corn show are given as follows: Any resident of New London county is eligible to exhibit. Exhibits must be grown by the competitors and must in all cases be from crop of 1916, ex- cept in case of corn meal, which should be from last year’s crop. No exhibitor may make morc than one entry for the same premium or receive more than one premium for the same entry. No distinguishing marks will be allowed on the exhibits after they are placed on exhibition except those authorized by the superintendent of the exhibi- tion. Bach exhibit must have :he name of the variety attached. Exhib- its if shipped prepaid to the corn show much reach the office of the New London County Improvement league, 82 Shetucket street, Norwich, Dec. lst, the day beforc the show. Exhibits brought in person must be in the ex- hibition hall by 12 o'clock, Dec. 2d. Exhibitors who so desire may bring their exhibits to the office of the New London County Improvement ieague at any time during the week ending Dec. 2d, the previous Friday at 5 p, m: Ex- hibitors wishing to enter exhibits not listed in the premium list must con- form to the regulations given under gratuities. All_exhibits will be staged at the owner's rigt. No responsibiiity will be assumed by the officials of the exhibi- tion for errors which may oceur, al- though every possible care will be taken by them to prevent mistakes or damage or loss from any causs. If the exhibitor wishes to have his exhibits returned after the show is over, he must notify the secretary in writing at the time of sending or placing his exhibits, or else be on hand to remove them at the close of the exhjbition. All exhibits remaining unarraged for atter the close of the exhibition will be sold or_disposed of at the discretion of the officials in charge of the corn show. The judges’ decision will be final in all cases unless a written appeal is made to the executive committee of farm bureau_ before 6 o'clock of the day of the show. The right to make necessary changes in the rules and regulations or in the premicm list is reserved. Any exhibitor interfering with or in any way hindering a judge in the performance of his duties will be absolutely barred from any prizes or prize money. The score card has been arranged as follows: Maturity . iformit; Kernels . Weight of ear seen Length and proportion BOfES {eotte S0 . Tips 0 Space between rows Color .. Total ...... An explanation follows: ) Maturity ard seed condition—Corn is worthless if it will not grow. Ears should be firm and free from mould, with a bright*lustre. Germ should be plump. Uniformity—It is hard to determine what a “type” of New England corn is. The ears should be similar in length, shape, size, color, indentation of kernels, etc. Kernels—Should be uniform and slightly wedge shaped. Shape deter- mines to a great extent the amount of corn on the cob, lost space between rows, also chemical composition. Ker- nels should possess germs of good size. Edges of the kernels should be Straight and fit closely togesher; they should be of uniform thickness. Rows should be straight. ‘Weight of ear—Not as important as in Dent varieties, owingw=to the ten- dency of flint corn to produce more than one ear on a stalk. : Length and proportion—Size of ears vary with locaiity, soil, etc. Ears with large circumference mature slowly. The circumference of th eear should be sufficient to give some rigidity to the of the score card ear. Butts—Large yield to the acre de- pends on having the butts and tips well filled out. Kernels shou!d be uni- form in size and well arranged; there should be no extra rows at butt. Large butts are undesirable, as are also too small butts. Tips—Should be well covered with kernels of uniform size and in rows which are a continuation of those on the ears. Poor tips may be caused by unfavorable season. Tips well filled out show good breeding. Space between the rows—Much space between the rows reduces the propor- tion of shelled corn. The space be- tween the kernels both at tips and crowns should be very slight. Wide spaces denote immaturity. Color—Kerncls should be uniform and of a bright lustre, showing good condition. White of black kernels in yellow corn should be cut seyerely and Vice .versa. The cobs should be of ather Medicine Builds You Up Best for Colds, Bronchitis, and throat troubles. No alcohol or dangerous drugs. uniform color in the exhibit. Usually white cofn has white cobs. Red cobs in yellow corn are preferred. Varia- tion in color shows lack of cixity of type and poor breeding- Suitable prizes will be donated by business men of the county are to be offered for the best exhibits. The pre- mium list and a t of those who do- nate the prizes will be announced later. SECOND SESS‘ION-OF MEN’S BIBLE CLASS The Real Test of Life Was the Topic for Discussion. The second session of the Men’s Bi- ble Study club was held at the Y. M. C. A. Tuesday evening and the topic of the study was The Real Test of Life. The scripture sciected was Luke, the 10th chapter and the 25th to the 37th verses; the lawyers' question to Jesus and the story of the good Sa- maritari. The following thoughts were brought out in the discussion. The greatest need in the world today is the need of self sacrificing men, those who are willing to do for others; the lawyer made a misteke when Le supposed that he could do something to merit the salvation which cannot be purchased, but can oply be secured by the sur- render of the life to Christ. That the man who loves God as he should will surely love his fellow man, but it is quite possible for a man to love- his fellow man and yet not to love God. That the men whom we would fiost expect to help the felldw who had fallen among thieves failed to help him and therefore failed to practice what they preached: that while the good Samaritan did" good service in helping the unfortuna%s man in a phy- sical way the greatest he made was . his gift of real heart sympathy. Our neighbor is not oniy the man who lives or works mnext to us but that every man who needs us and whom it is possible for us to reach in any way is our neighbor; that the Jericho road runs close by our homes and our business and in fact we walk the Jericho road every day that. we live and there are many there whom we can help. All Saints’ Day. n Tuesday, the vigil of All Saints, as of holy days of obligation, was a fast day in the Catkolic church. All Saints’ day, also known All Hal- lows’ day, the vigil was known as All Hallowe'en, now shortened to Hallow- e’en. Therc were many interesting be- liefs about this vigil in earlier times, and it became in the popular mind a night for ghosts to walk, fairies and elves to play pranks and the future to | be predicted. Varicus games have survived, and Vv v substantial griomes | and e y tricks which are some- ; times annoying but more often purely good natured, thoughtless mischief. ] Souls’ day, which follows All is designed to commemorate all who have died in the Christian faith. In the Roman church the two days are kept separately; in the Anglican, al- though the secofid festival is still re- tained in the calendar as a black- letter feast, the two days are usualy combined, the All Saints’ day services taking on some of the characieristics also of All Sou! Monday Night Club Organized. About 35 local young ladies have organized a club to be known as the Monday Night club. They will meet every other Monday night in the Buckingham Memorial where, under the direction of Miss Mary McKay dancing and gymnastics will be taught.
