How to Get Plump

causes % leanness so prevalent I'm this

at the State Universities Of Tennessee and
Maine.
II has long been apparent TO observers
that people are thinner than they used
to be, ana that the American mode OF Nv

American is too thin. His lank figure and
sunken cheeks are typical on our streets

Scientists have been eudeavOrinE to ac-

the matter.

LEAVES CAUSE OF ACCIDENT.
After Trolley Struck Beacon Fall
 Woman It Glided 500 Feet.

The motOrman of the trolley eX- press car which hit Mrs Mary Sims 1 in Beacon Falls, Tuesday noon, has ascribed the accident to leaves on the tracks. He claimed that he applied the brakes but that he could not hold the car on account of slippery rails. It went some 500 feet before it was brought to a standstill, after it had hit Mrs Sims.
 It is noticeable that the big cars used on this line have great difficulty in climbing the steep grades There is a great slipping of the wheels upon the rails, and progress is slow. South Main street hill which is said to be the worst grade on the Waterbury, New Haven line,is one of the hardest to make, and the effect it has on the power is apparent at night, by the dimming of the lights.
 Decaying foliage when ground un- der the wheels of the car, exudes an oily substance, which has the same effect on the tracks as though they were greased. Just at this time of the year motOrmen have to exercise god deal of caution and judgment Otherwise, as in the Beacon Falls ac- cldent, some one is likely to be injur- ed. It is also difficult to stop the cars on crosswalks and other places where people wish to board them. Only the most experienced men can manage their cars satisfactorily yunder the present circumstances.

REIMONSTRANGE FILED
Bill Street People Do Not Want
 Saloon Near Them.

A remonstrance' has been filed with the board of county commissioners to granting liquor license in any building on Hill street between Pil- grim and Burton streets. Ie bears the signature of many residents of the north end, including that of Rev Father T. NJ. Crowley, pastor of St Thomas and it is said to have been headed by Judge George G. Cowell of the district court Rumor has it that the remonstran, is intended to head off any endeavor James Me- Laughlin of Hill street may make to have his license transferred further down the street. It was reported that he intended filing an application to have it transferred to a new build ing on the east side of the street, in the vicinity of Rock street and prop erty owned by Judge Cowell Of course the remonstrance will operate against any other application as well as MT McLaughlin's.

 The professor entertains the crowds with his trick dogs, whose training shows the hand of a skilled animal ruler.

GRANDPA MUST CARE.
Judge Wheeler Decides Against New
 Britain Man.

New Britain, Oct. 25.-Patrick Mo- GIire of New Britain. who has q grocery store and is also engaged in the coal business. is well to do and he will have to contribute $3O a month towards the support of the little child ren of his son, William. The order for Mir McGuire to Day the money was made by Judge Ralph Wheeler in the superior court yesterday after the judge had heard the suit of the board of public charities of New Britain brought for the purpose of compell- ing McGuire to contribute towards the support of the children. The pay ment of $30 is to continue until fur ther order in the matter is made by the superior court. In addition to mak- ing payments of $30 a month MsGnire will have to reimburse the town of New Britain for what it has already paid out for the care of the children, $16S in all.
 For time after her husband died, MT McGuire, the father-in-law, per mitted Mrs Mcclure to have goods from his grocery store, but about the middle of September, 1905, accord ing to the testimony of Mrs Me- Guire, he refused to let her have any more groceries. He never made any charge for the groceries. She lived in a tenement owned by her father in-law and since the death of her husband her father-in-law has not charged her any rent for the tene- ment.
 The sole question in the case was as to the amount he should give, he believing that he had done his duty, while the board of charities thought thought he should do more.

BROOKLYN BRIEFS.

The business lull which has struck other parts of the city is also felt in Brooklyn. Although the gro- cery and meat stores continue to have good patronage the merchants in other lines of business are much ef- fected by the shortage of money.
 -Abe Naylor is repairing his building at the corner of South Leon- ard and Bank streets. Someone caused considerable excitement in the vicinity this morning by stating that the owner was to erect a four story brick building.
 The new game laws have put stop to the practice so prevalent on Town Plot in past years. that of shooting song birds. Foreigners took much delight in bringing the little songsters to the ground with their rifles but this year as yet none of it has been seen. Last year a few of the offenders were arrested and fined but in most cases they were not caught.
 The huge sand bank in the rear of the Duggan school is fast dis appearing. With the aid of a couple of dumpcarts and force of workmen the sand is being carted away so that within a short time, work may be started on the large retaining wall which is to be built there. When the wall was first spoken of. it was thought that it would be ready ere now but operations have been de- layed. The removal of the bank and the building of the wall will make the play ground much larger.
 P HOratio Kelly who a few months ago bought out the trucking business of Thomas Grady, is looking for a horse. In fact Mir Kelly has been seeking a draft horse for the past few weeks. But he has as yet failed to find an animal which he thought suitable especially in regard to the price. But Wednesday Patrick heard that a man on Easton avenue had a steed which would suit his fancy so yesterday the truckman went to the address given and asked to see the horse. After a minute exam ination the purchaser to be- said he might buy the horse but first would like to try him He was told he might take the horse until 3 that afternoon. it was then 1 o'clock Mir Kelly intended to bring him over to Alexander McDonald's farm and work him out an hour or two but plans did not matsTiaIize The animal moved at such a slow gait that it took him about an hour to get over to Brooklyn.

The Delsarte.

In our many years of experimenting with shoes we have found the Del sarte" the most satisfactory of all.
 The materials that enter into the making are the very best and that IS why they don't burn or require breaking in.
 They are all bench made and that is why they keep their shape to the very end.
 They are made on the most prac- tioal scientific lasts and that is why they fit so we'll and it is to these req sons we ascribe the fact that the "Delsarte" is by all means the best NWoman's shoe on the market.
