A vmt to the laboratory where this | successful remedy is mede impresses even the casual looker-on with the reli- ability; accuracy, skill and cleanliness which attends the making of this great medicine for woman’s ills. Over 850,000 pounds of various herbs arc used anually and all have to be thered at the season of the year when g‘:e" natural juices and medicinal sub- stances are at their best. The most successful solvents are used to extract the medicinal properties from these herbs, Everyutensil and tank that comes in contact with the medicine is sterilized and as a final precauuon in: cleanliness the medicine is pasteurized and sealed in sterile bottles. It is the wonderful combination of roots and herbs, together with the skill and care used in its preparation which hes made this famous: medicine so successful in the treatment of female ills. The letters from women who have been restored to health by the use of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Végetable Com- d which we are continually pub- ing attest to its virtae.

With Little Success So Far— Pushing Crusher to Limit in — The recent announcement that,no more compressed air from the Norwich Compressed Air company would be available here after the will_hit the city stone crushing plant on Roath street a crippling blow and practically put it out of business until some ‘way is devised to provide power to take the place of the compressed | air_which- has-been the only power | used in the operation of the plant. Ever -since the statement first ap> peared in The Builetin that the com- pressed air was to be cut off, the pub- lic works committec and the street commissioner, James P. Fox, have been trying to devise'a way to meet the emergency, though not with great success yet, Mr. Fox said on Thursday night So far, saig Mr. Fox, they had re-!| ceived no official notice that the power is to be cut off, b¥ they have heard\ of others who have had the notice, so that they have acted accordingly. Efforts have been made by the pub- lic works committee, whose members are-Alderman M. C. Higgins, Council- men F. G. Aubrey and John T. Glea- son, to arrange for either steam or} electric power to take the place of the | compressed air, but it is a hard thing | to get either dynamos or boilers, and | no immediate certain solution of the | problem is in sight. Within a few days a new compres- sor, which was ordered under Street Commissioner Fellows' rezime, has | been delivered, and is in use, but it is too small to run the crusher. It is a portable gasoline engine, which was bought with the idea that it would help out in the summer time when the com- pressed air power was weak because of low water, and it could also be transported around the city to be used where there was drilling work to be done. It would furnish the compress- ed air power for the drills. To add to the troubles, the crusher has not been operating, until Wednes- day, since Mr. Fox came into office, when his term began the moving of the crusher on the Roath street lot, which had been begun under Commis- sioner Fellows, had not been com- pleted. It was only on Wednesday at noon that Mr, Fox got the crusher to operating again and he has been push- ing it to overtime since then in an effort to get out enough stone by Saturday to do half the West Main street improvement job before his sup- ply of crushed stone is cut off. It is his intention to do the, West Main street work before beginning the West Thames street macadam work, as West Main street will provide a detour when the West Thames street work is under way. orrespondence has been carried on ith firms out of town that might | furnish stone, but here again the transportation difficulties and uncer- | tainties add another. bad factor to the problem. HARTFORD MAYOR HELPS NORWICH MAN HOME Provides the Carfare to Man Who Couldn't Get Job. Mayor Richard J called upon Wednesday an unusual case, in which he made it possible for an old ‘man to get back to his home in Norwich. The man was drested in Norifich several weeks ago, accused of “bootlegging.” He was brought to Hartford, where the federal grand jury did not find the evidence sufficient to hold him, and he was released: Kinsella was afternoon in ‘Without funds, he tried to get a job and earn his passage back to Norwich, Besides being old, he was lame and could not walk only aid of a cane, so there w. for him. Someone gd!d kim the mayor was a good fellow and so he appealed to him. He had had nothing to eat since the day before. The mayor turned him over to his secretary, James A. Curry, and the charity board furnished the transportation. The old man left, feeling that Hartford had a pretty good mayor.—Hartford Times. with the no job TO CHANGE LAW. Medical Society and Labor Unions Would Alter Connecticut Compen- sation Act. A proposed change in the compen- sation law; which wdild extend more widely the number of physicians treat- ing injured employes, may be intro- duced by members of the Hartford Medical society, when the next legis- lature opens. The movement has the support of labor organizations in this state, To the employer, the present law gives the right to select a physician by whom the person injured is ex- amined. If the injured employe chooses different physicians he must pay the bill. If the proposed bill is passed, the employer will also be re-| quired to payv that bill. Employes are| said to fee] that the reports made by physicians who are employed by the employer to treat the employe, are at times open to question. It has been said that, as the fam- ily physician is better equipped with special knowledge of the person burt, he has therefore more gen- eral responsibility than a physician chosen by the employer, especially if the emplover is a corporation which selects the same doctor in most of its cases.

READY TO OPEN FARM FOR WOWEN New State Institution at East Lyme Can Take 12 Inmates, . Governor Marcus H. Holcomb has issued his proclamation to announce that the Connecticut State Farm for Women at East Lyme is ready for oc- cupancy, as follows: A Proclamation. By’ virtue of the authority in me vested and in accordance with Sec- tion 4 of Chapter 338 of the Public Acts of 1917, I hereby make proclama- tion that the Connecticuit Farm for Women at East Lyme, Connecticut, is now open for the reception of inmates and direct that a copy’ hereof under the seal of the executive department be mailed to each judge of each city, borough and town court, and to each judge of the superior court, and each state’s attorney. Dated at Hartford, this tenth day of July, 1918. MARCUS H. HOLCOMB, Governor. The farm is able to take care of twelve women at present, but the number is expected to increase in a few months. The farm lies all around beautiful Bride lake at East Lyme, and covers something more than 800 acres, the lake itseif being good for seventy-five acres. The location has been characterized by the head of a similar institution outside the state as the finest site for a reformatory -in the United States. sitation for a woman's reforma- t began during Governor Simeon E. Baldwin's term of office, when the governor appointed a commission with Professor William B. Bailey of Yale university at the head to investigate the delinquency of women in the state..: The commission drafted a bill establishing a permanent commission to decide upon the type of institution needed and called for an appropria- tion of $20,000. The 1915 general as- sembly did not pass the bill. A little over a year ago the Connec- ticut Prison association, of which Pro- fessor Bailey is president, took up the matter and appointed a committee on delinquent women to investigate con- ditions throughout the state. This committee is almost identical in per- sonnel with the present committee on prohibition and domestic relations which is at present at work in the state. Miss Mary A.' Goodwin was chairman and the other members were —Mrs, Henry Bridgman of Norfolk, Miss Mary S. Bushnell of Hartford, s. Augustin A. Crane of Water- ury, Mrs. L, S. Cummings of Clarks- ville, Mrs. Lee Wilson Dodge of New Haven, Miss Helen M. Hall of Mid- dletown. Mrs. Appleton R. Hillver of Hartford, Mrs. Edward H. Lorenz of West Hartfora, Mrs. Myra M. Macfar- iand of Winsted, Mrs. L. McLain of Hartford, Mrs. George . Minor of Waterford, Mrs. Frank A. Mitchell of Norwich, Mrs. Arthur Rogers of W Ha\en Mrs. Frederick G. Platt New Britain and Mra. Emily H. Whitney of New Haven. Thke committee went to work to col- late information upon the treatment of delinquent women in other states. Dr. Katherine B. Davis of New York, at that time chairman of the paroy commission, gave considerable assiw#- ance to the committee its work, and help was obtained from experts throughout the country. In the end the committee was able to work out a bill which met the approval of the senera] assembly of 19817 and became law. The bill carried with it an appro- priation of $50,000 for purchasing a site and maintenance of the farm un- til October, 1919. About ten days ago the board of control was able to add about $25,000 more for a hospital and the board of directors hopes to im- press the next legislature with the need of further money. The site at PBride Lake was purchased after a great deal of consideration, and it is now agreed that the choice of the | board of directors could hardly have been improved upon. The lake is planted with 5,060 California salmon and the grounds e been_stocked with deer. Prof. William P. Bailey is chairman of the board of directors, and the other members are: Dr. Va- ieria H: Parker of Hartford, secretary; George C. Clark of Plvmouth, treas- urer: John H. Goss of Waterbury; Ed- ward H. Hazen of Haddam: Mrs. Anne Rozers Minor of Waterford, and Mrs. Arthur X. Rogers of New Haven. It is understcod that the federal courts will commit women violating 1he federal laws relating to prostitu- tion in the vicinity of army camps to the farm under an arrangement with the state. Cases from the various courts mav be sent to East Lyme at the discretion of the courts and with cue regard to the capacity of the in- stitution. Girls over 16 vears of age may be sent to the state farm, and there is no maximum age limit except the age of discretion. e Stafford Boys Fined. Four boys from Stafford Springs, all under legal age, were before Judge John E. Fisk, in the Rockville police court Wednesday morning on the charge of preach of the peace. They were charged with mistreating several small girls whom they took automo- hile riding on Mountain street on Sunday evening. They were arrested cn a complaint lodged with Policeman S. J. Tobin. Three of the boys were fined $10 and costs each and the other was fined $20 and costs. DISMISSES THIS CLAIM FOR WORKMEN’S COMPENSATION ommissioner Dannhuc Finds That Higganum Man Had No Liable Em- ploye: On the ground ‘that the claimant, Luigi Calliare of Higganum, was one of a partnership or contract, and was nrot an employe of Giacomo Donatoni, also of Higganum, the respondent, and that Donatoni regularly had less than five men in his employ. Commissioner J. J. Donohue has dismissed the com- pensation claim' of Luigi-Calliare, who had his right leg broken by a tree that fell on him ‘as he was chopping wood and getting out logs in the neigh- borhood of Higganum on Feb. 7, 1918, The injured man was in the hospi- tal about six weeks and was still in- capacitated at the time of the hearing on May 14, The ~ hearing . wag calied that the question of who was the employer at the time of the injury might be passed upon, as the claimant believed that Donatoni was the responsible party, but Donatoni claimed that at the time of the injury he had but two men in his employ and that the clauna.m was not one of .them. 4 In the testimony offered in the casé it was shown that Donatoni had made a verbal contract’ with two men, nei- ther of whom was the claimant in this case, to cut wood for him, and that these two later offered the claim- ant the chance to cut wood there and later also offered the same chance to another man and all four divided the profits. The commissioner finds that the testimony goes to show that thera was no employer-at the time of the claim- ant's injury upon whom he could make claim for compensation. was rather a member of a pannershm and his own employer. It is not found that any one of the four men had any right to dictate as to how the work was to be performed, each was his own boss, one had as much authority as another, or as one of the four men expressed it “They were equals.” .DEVENS QUOTA TO GO ON JULY 25TH From Eleventh Division—Fifty Men in the List Announced.

AT DAVIS THEATRE. Five Part Reel is Feature on Bill. A Doll's House, a five part picturiz- ation of Ibsen’s famous psychological story is the feature attraction at the Davis theatre for the last half of the week The roll of Nora Helmer, the petted wife of Thorvald Helmer is splendidly portrayed by Elsie Fergu- son, the famous star of the Artcraft company.. The part gives Miss Fer- guson an excellent opportunity to dis- pldy her ability as an actress which she does to spiendid advantage. The a theme presented by Ibsen is' that woman's place in the home is not merely an ornamental one but she should be her husband’s helpmate. The picturs deals with an incident in life that turn a weak and dependent Wl'e| into strong resourcefu] woman.
