Weunded Overseas Man Gets Great Ralief with Jaques’ Wonder Capsules. “For three years and five months ©f the World War I wore the khaki of az infantryman. Threugh the hell of Ypres, St. Eloi, Arras, the Somme, Amiens and Paschendale, ‘we trudged through the mire. The mud and the slush and the constant shelling took their toll of the men's {morale, but even worse than this were the cold rations, or none. “1 suffered from stomach trouble as others did, without aid, until wounded at St. Elol, in the spring of 1916; then came the Red Cross hospital in Eng- land. Again duty called me back /into the shell swept areas of Belgium, broken in constitution, but able to earry a rifle. Gradually starving, yet carrying on, as others did, down to a weight of about 110 pounds, until ‘one day an _enemy shell got me again —Blighty, England, for me. “Days in the hospital. Then be- fore a medical board, ordered back to Canada, and there discharged as medically unfit. During all these months of careful medical treatment every effort was made to restore my appetite and train my stomach to di- gest food, but without success. “T returned to my home in Syra- euse, N. Y., shattered in health, un- able to digest my food and altogether despondent. In 1919 my work took me ! to Plattsburg, N. Y., where 1 became acquainted with Jaques' Little Won- ! der Capsules. I took the capsules and {1 am today free from the constant ' misery im my stomach. | “Through my love of the old uni- yform I do not feel that I can have ymy name published, but if anyone in- terested will drop a line to the Jnques Capsule Co., Plattsburg, N.

It is understood that the contract be- twecan the band and the fair association was that the gypsies would be off the property by Tuesday morning. If the gypsies fall to move o: today, Tuesday, some action will be taken by the soclety to cause them to vacate quickly as the time is short before the Bay stats cir- cuit racing begans there. ‘Where the band will move to is in doubt, but it is known that the society at e Martin E. Jensen, who recently re- signed as a member of the gas and elec- trie commission, and whose resignation was accepted at the July meeting of the court of common counell, is back on the eommission again. At the August meet- ing of the council held Monday night in the council chamber Alderman Patrick F. Sweeney informed the members of the couneil that Mr. Jensen had changed his mind about cesigning and in view of this fact the alderzan moved that the July vote of the cf.ncil aceepting Mr. Jen- sen's resignation, which was effective Aug. 1, be reconsidered. The council adopted the motion to reconsider the vote and then on motion of Alderman Henry Gebrath declined to accept Mr. Jensen's Tesignation. He will therefare continue to serve as a member of the commission. The only reason Mr. Jensen gave at the time he submitted his cesignation was that the time required in his duties as e?mmlnioner was too much for him to give. The council at its meeting last night authorized the creation of a recreation or playgrounds commission of seven mem- bers, the commission to have entire charge of the creation and maintenance of public playgrounds in Nerwich. The meeting was called to order at 7.15 o'clock. standard time, by His Honor Mayor Milo R, Waters. The min- utes of the previous meeting were ac- cepted without reading, according to cus- tom. Sturtevant Avenue Hearing. After the city clerk read the sheriff's return for the hearing en the acceptance of Sturtevant avenue and Tyler avenue as a public highway, the hearing was declared open. The only person heard with reference to the matter was Gilbert Bowgrs. Mr. Bowers said the only treuble he could see in the proposed layout was that Ty- ler avenue went too far. He said it ehould go only as far as Watereress ave- nue, as he said that was as far he should care to deed the land. The next hearing Was on the proposed city ordinances having to do with the dumping of rubbish on city property and crowing roosters which disturb the rest of neighbors. The clerk read the return of publication, after which the hearing was declared open. Lee Roy Robbins, prosecuting attorney for the city, spoke briefly in favor of the crowing rooster ordinance. Mr. Robbins #aid he spoke from the standpeint of the city attorney. He said thece has been 2 demand for an ordinance of this kind. Last year he had received about a dozen compiaints from people who were unable to sleep because of the crowing of roost- ers during the night. Several complaints had come in this year from families who have been actually disturbed by the crowing of Toosters. He said he was convinced that semething ahould be done about the matter. It is not a joke, far from it, said Mr. Robbins. In closing he said he hoped the ordinance would be adopted. The Playgrounds Commission. The hearing on the proposed appoint- ment of the municipal recreation com- mission was next taken up. Arthur L. Peale urged the adoption of the ordi- nance. He said he is greatly interested in playgrounds. Mr. Peale called atten- tion to the fact that the state giv®cities power to create these municipal commTs- sions. It does seem that public play- grounds should be established in Nor- wich, said Mr. Peale. Norwich should take its place among the progressive cities, he said in clobing. As there was no one else who wished to be heard, the hearing was declared closed, and the councll took a recess to consider the three matters. Upon reconvening, the Sturtevant ave- nue and Tyler avenue matter was refer- Ted back to the public works committee for further investigation. The council then adopted the ordinance authorizing the creation of the recreation commis- sion. The appointments on the commis- slon will be made within the neac future and the new commission will begin its duties Oct. 1st. It will consist of seven members, al} of whom will serve without pay. The commission will have entire charge of the establishment and mainte- nance of playgrounds in Norwich.
