Ustewsrd weather and hard condltio toF travel and other handical's considered, thé Dollar day arranged by the Danlelson chamber of commerce for Saturday still cih be rated as very much of a suncess. 1t"did not réach up to the suprising results of the Dollar day of last Ausust, and it Is doubtful if this was expected excelt in $veroptimistic quarters, but it was the biggest buying day that Danielson mer- mRants have experienced since the Christ- s season, and the whole effort may:be rated’as well worth while At a number of stores there was a line- up of customers to await the mlocking of the dors, and these rushed the bargain counters in true big town style the in- stant they got a toehold on the threshold Buyers came in from all the surrounding territory and spent, in the aggregate, sev eral. thousand dollars that Danlelson bus- Iness men likely would never have hnadled were it not for the big Dollar day selling yyening. Buyers have learned that these general Dollar day events in Danielson offer wcores of money-saving cpoortunities. to those who study the advertising that pre- cedes them and make the most of the chances presented to save money. .

If you must have your medt every u.y eat it, but flush your kidneys salts occasionally, says a noted a thoflty who tells us that meat forms uric acid which almost para- lyzes the kidneys in their efforts to expel it from the blood. They become g‘unuh and weaken, then you suffer rith a dull misery in the kidney region, abarp pains in the back or sick head- ache, dizziness, your stomach sours, tebgue is coated and when the weather is bad you have rheumatlc twinges.! urine gets cloudy, fuil of sedi- ment, the channels often get sore -.nd frritated, obliging you to seek re!ie!‘ two' ‘or three times during the night. To_ neutralize these irritating acid tg cleanse the kidneys and flush off} the body's urinous wasts .used for generations to flush and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to peutralize the acide in urine, so it no longer irritates, thus ending. bladder weakness. dale, ion middleweight wrestifsr of New England, has so far recovered from the effects of the injury to his shoulder in the match with John Kalet- chitz of Eastford, at the Victory thea- tre bout, as to be ready to get to work agaln, He will appear against Jacl Merro at Leominister, Mass., on the ev- ening of March Sth. Lundstrom met Merro about two years ago and the bout was declared a draw. The mew system by which all patrel- men of the Putnam police department will be called upon to do might duty was Dut into effect Sunday by Captain of Police Remie Delage. The day job is considered more attractive than night duty and it was to give all patrolmen an opportunity to work while the sun is shining that the new schedule chango was put into effect. - Tne effect of the change will be somewhat as follows: Officer Gibney, who has been doing night duty, began day duty Sunday, and Officer Willlam Jarvis, Who has been on days will do night duty. April 2nd, Officer John Ryan, who has been doing night duty, wil go on a day beat’ and Officer Gibney will go back to night duty. April 30th Officer Jarvis will re- turn to day duty and Officer Ryan will g0 on nights. This system will be con- tinued as long as it proves satisfactory, with changes from day to night duty about once every month. A woman has reported to the police that while in a Front street store re- cently she lost a pocketbook containing among other things a five dollar bill. The woman does not seem to be posi- tive ' whether she lald the pocketbook down or ‘drapped it. The police -have information that a man was seen put- ting the purse in his pocket. They be- lieve that possibly he found it on the floor. They know who the man is and are walting for him to return it volun- tarily before taking any action. The woman s poor and needs the money badly. Her husband was committed to a state instution not long ago and she is left to support herself and chil- dren, Members of Putnam Lodge, B. P. O. Elks, were at Danielson, Saturday to attend the funeral of their brother, L. J. Morin, who died last Thursday. The service was at St. James church. Captain Remis Delage of the Putnam gives warning that speeding on , Grove, Schoo] streets and Wood- stock avenue must ston. These are main travelled thoroughfares and the speed kings seem to delight in opening up the throttle’ and showing what Bar- ney Oldfields they could become if they had the chance. Twenty miles an hour is all tha tthe police will allow nere- after. ‘They think that this rats of speed on these travelled streets, where there are many intersecting streets, is fats enough, and that above this rate of travel is reckless driving. Another thing that the police cali attention to s the careless parking of automoblles on Inion_square. During the evening hours many machines are parked while the owners and their families attend the theatres or do shopping. In order to ac- commodate all with parking space cars must ‘be backed- into the curb close to one another. Some motorists are park- ing almost parallel with the curb while others leave a space of several feet the- tween their car and the onme next to it. Cars should be ‘backed to the curb and parked closely together in order that every inch of parking space may be made avilable. From 150 to 200 cars are sometimes parked on Union square and Main street on a Saturday ni The body of Fred Corbin, 41, who died at Woodstock town farm Friday morning, is being held for the arrival of a sister, his only near relative, from Cincinnati. Although he died at the town.farm he was not # town charge as he had saved money from the sale of newspapers and paid his doctor's bills and his board. Corbin was born In Killingly, son of Hezekiah and Saran Moflitt Corbin.. The child was born d formed and was unable to get about ex- cept in a wheel chair. For years he had been a famillar sight on a busy corner ‘on Main street where He sold newspapers and occasionally potted plants. His crippled conditlon .gained much sympathy and he did & good bus- iness in ' disposing of his ‘wares. - Last fall Corbin'took ~ a trip to Florida alone. He did not remain south but a week or two, as he was anxlous to get back where he knew people and was known. He paid his own way with money he had saved but upon -his re- turn told friends that as a matter of fact his trip cost him but little, as peo- ple were all kind to him. His father and mother were both dead and he made his home alone in a little tene- ment on. School street. On account of falling health he - sought and obtained no apprehension ‘as to the possibility of children contracting scarlet fever as the result of attending school. In schools at which a few pupils who develped scarlet fever were in attendance the buildings have been thoroughly fumigated during the vacation season, and all dangers that may have existed removed.

The man had . been drinking a concoction, the smell of which would nauseate an ordinary per- son, He said it was the best whiskey he ever tasted ‘and claimed he got it in Manchaug. Gagnon sald that he “once lived In Putnam and trat he played baseball there. He was without over- coat or collar-and was thinly clad. He secemed in a daze and said he had no place to' .go. After watching & man walking back and forth and back. and forth, occas- sionally stopping to eat snow, people along the South Woodstock Toad noti- fied the Putnam police, Saturday ‘morn- ing, that a man was acting queerly and they thought he should be taken care of. As the plate where he was seen was in the town ‘of Woodstock, Captain Delage told his informers to notify Dep- ut ySheriff L. H. Healey. . This was done and the deputy found the man and brought him -to Putnam. The - stranger ave the name of Edward LaRose and when_asked why he was walking back (and forth said he did .not know. As far as could be determined the: man had ‘not been drinking. It was' learn- ed that he lived in-the Manhasset vil- lage and he was taken there' by the | Woodstock officer. According _te Tax Collector E. C. Morse, the women are coming forward and paying their poll tax with a bet- ter grace and in greater numbers than the men.

Nove of the breczes expected in the third month of the :year havé ar- rived yet. The.time was when the youth of the country set the month apart as. thirty-one. days of kite-fiying time. This was an era, when mother's or grandmother's rag bag Was: surrepti- tiously taken to the woodshed and the Dleces therein contained made into a tall for a home-made kite. With the in- ventlon of the sclsntific box kite the old-fashioned . tria: @} Jar. or the. more popular . six-sided kie is nat frequent- 1y seen and .as a mattér of record kite fiying has . nearly sunk into . oblivien. The. old boys sometimes, remark that the youngsters of today do. mot follow the snort custom esneclaily if. the cus- tom entails any work. which making a kite does.
