what did Argand do for the 1ampf
Examine an ordinary lamp In which
,oal oil is burned. The chimney pro-
tects the fame from sudden gusts or
wind and also creates draft OF air,

Argand's lamp was the first to have q

you will see open passages through
which air may pass upward ana nnd
It's way to the wick. Notice further
that as this draft Of air passes upward
L IL so directed that when the lamp
u burning an extra quantity OF air
plays directly upon the wick. Before
Argand, the wick received no supply OF
air. Now notice land this Ii very I'M
portant-that the wick Of our modern
lamp Is dat or circular. but thin. The
aid In abundance plays upon both sides
Of the thin wick, and burns It without
making smoke. Smoke is simply half
burned particles (soot) Of q burning
substance. The particles pass Oh half
burned because enough afr has not been
supplied. Now ArSsnd. BY making the

It to burn with q white iameN
After the invention Of Argand. the
art Of lamp-making improved BY leaps
and by bounds. More progress was
made in twenty years after 17s3 than
had been made In twenty centuries BE-
tore. New burners weze invented, new
and better oils were used, and better
wicks made. But all the new kinds Of
lamps were patterned after the Argand

SOME THING YOU SHUULD KNOW

We want the people of New Haven and vicinity to know that the most valuable and delicious cod liver prep aration known to medicine is Vinol.
 Yinol contains all the medicinal ele- ments of cod liver oil actually taken from fresh cods' livers, but not a drop of the useless, greasy oil to upset the stomach and retard it's work, and to this is added peptonate of iron (tonic iron)
 For this reason Vinol is recognized throughout the world as the greatest health restorer, and strength creator known to medicine, and we do not believe there is a man, woman or child in New Haven but what Vinol will benefit them at this season of the year.
 Vinol creates health and strength for old people, weak, sickly women and children, nursing mothers, and after a severe sickness.
 Vinol cures hacking coughs, chronic colds, bronchitis, and all throat and lung troubles.
 Try Vinol on our offer to return money If it fails. HulPs Corner Drug store.
 Note.-While we are sole agents for Vinol in New Haven, it is now for sale at the leading drug store in nearly ev- cry town and city in the country. Look for the Vinol agency in your town.

FRIENDS HELP.
St. Paul Park Incident.

"After drinking coffee for breakfast I always felt languid and dull, having no ambition to get to my morning duties. Then in about an hour or so a weak, nervous derangment of the heart and stomach would come over me with such force I would frequently have to lie down.
 At other times I had severe head aches; stomach finally became affected and digestion so impaired that I had serious chronic dyspepsia and constipa- tion. A lady, for many years State President of the w. c. T. U., told me ! she had been greatly benefited by quit ting coffee and using Postum Food Coffee; she was troubled for years with asthma. She said 1t was no cross to quit coffee when she found she could have as delicious an article as Postum.
 Another lady, who had been troubled with chronic dypepsia for years, found immediate relief on ceasing coffee and beginning Postum twice day. She told me that Postum Food Coffee was a Godsend to her, her heart trouble hav- ing been relieved after leaving off cof- fee and taking on Postum.
 ''So many such cases came to my mo- tice that I concluded coffee was the cause of my trouble and quit and took up Postum am more than pleased to say that my days of trouble have dis appeared. I am well and happy :" "There's Reason" Read, "The Road to Wellyille,' in. pkgs.

BILLS KILLED BY THE HOUSE
Continued from First Page.)

Representative Gum, who, with MT. Noone, signed a minority report on the measure, spoke strongly in favor of the bill calling for the election of the commissioners by the people, the bur den of his remarks being that there was wide and growing demand that the commissioners be elected by the people. He said that he expected that the bill would be defeated, but said that he hoped that some time the peo- pie of the state would be trusted When the representative from Milford called for an aye and nay vote the whole house arose to indorse the motion.
 Representative Birdseye, of Farming ton, asked leave to offer an amend ment, and while he was preparing 1t Representative Banks, the republican leader, rose to say that he had voted for the bill in the committee, but he now proposed to vote against It. He said that if a county caucus named an undesirable candidate the general as- sembly could reject the nomination. Any member knowing anything derog- atory to a candidate should bring 1t out on the floor of the house and sem ate. If elected by the people it would be necessary to raise the salaries of the commissioners, for the expenses of the office were large.
 MT. Birdseye then offered his amend ment, but the speaker ruled that, as 1t was on an unfavorable report, 1t was out of order. The amendment would give the governor power to submit the names to the general assembly. The previous question was then called for and the vote resulted as follows Yeas 1O4 nays 5S, the report of the commit tee being accepted and the bill re- jected
 | Mr. Birdseye was persistent and ask ed for unanimous consent to present his amendment. The clerk started to read it and got as far as "the governor shall nominate" when MT. Banks ob- jected and the matter ended
 Representative Banks asked that the house stay in session until several small matters were disposed of, and his request was granted, after a motion by Mir. Gum to adjourn until Tuesday when final adjournment will be taken was unanimously passed,
 It was late in the afternoon when the house finally adjourned.

viIle," plymouth" Jericho" and, al- though small, would deliver the light trains of that day on about the present time schedule.
 It is a far cry from those engines to the "moguls" of 90 or 100 tons of the present day, and it would probably need them all to haul one of the big freight trains of to-day.
 The population of Waterbury was then, sixty years ago, about 5000, and that of the whole valley, from Derby to Winsted, inclusive, 21,0OO
 The whole freight and passenger business of this valley, with its growth has been transacted on the same one track railroad which was built in this cheap and nasty manner away back in those days, except that larger rails have been laid and bridges strength ened
 The money required at that times to build and equip this road would not be sufficient for the present improve ment within the limits of Waterbury alone, and probably not far that be- tween Bank and West Main streets, and from the Naugatuck Junction to and including Waterbury, the amount absorbed would then have been con- sidered an impossible sum.
 It is being improved so far as Wa terbury is concerned, not for 60,O0O 1 people, but for a possible 100000 and 1 although the money spent by the conn pany to-day seeems fabulous and that to be spent by the city appears to many impossible and ruinous, yet the l system will be four tracked and such | amounts raised and expended for still | further Improvements by both rail- road and city, as to make this of to- | day seem as child's play. The advance of those 60 years in means of trans portation and communication has ex- | eeeded that of all the previous cen- turies. The four-page Weekly Amer i ican of 1S47 contained news of the Mexican war two weeks old, from Eu- rope four weeks old, and from China I as many months The 16-page Daily American of 1907 tells of an earth quake in San Francisci, Valparaiso, Jamaica or Mexico; the burning of a town in the Philippines or the strand ing of a steamship on the coast of Ja. pan the same day on which it occurs, and gives quotations from the markets of the world of the date of issue.
 In 1S47 the traveller to New York left Naugatuck at a. m. by stage to Derby, arriving at 10; from thence by changfe of stages to Bridgeport and by steamboat to New York, arriving at t 5 D. m,--10 hours, In 1907 he goes from New York to Boston in five hours; to Chicago in 20 hours and to Europe in five days.
 We have every reason to suppose that this advance in improvements in the uses of steam, electricity and the printing press, and in the discovery and use of new agents, will continue, and in an ever increasing ratio, and the grandchildren of those living to- day with their enlarged privileges may look back at the things which we con- slider so marvellous now much in the same manner as we regard those of "a century ago.

sUNDRXSCIvIL NEEDS.
Over Sixty-five Thousand Dollars In-
 crease--HilI Tabled.

Hartford, May 2--The bill providing for appropriations for sundry civil pur- poses, carrying total of $1,S69, ,564 as against $1,8O4, 220 two years ago, was reported to the senate by MT. McGov- ern to-day It was tabled at request of Senator Judson until an appropria- tion of $1,O00 for grade crossings was stricken out.
 Among the itms was S200.00O for county jails, $136,OOO for the Connecti- |cut School for Boys, s115,OoO for board of children in county homes; $225O for soldiers in hospitals, etc., $60,OOO for the state prison and $lO5,56O for the school for girls.
 Senator McGovern spoke of the excel lent management of the state prison, and Senator Donovan asned him why he did not mention the fact that this was the only state institution that fav- ored state purchasing agent, and that 1t was actually the best conducted of all state institutions
 Senator McGovern replied that he did not thing it was necessary to go out of his way to speak particularly of one institution when there wree many which were well conducted.

LOCAL EAGLES.
Still Considering What Action to Take
 Regarding the Mailing Up of Their

Home.
 The Eagles have not yet decided on what action will follow the mailing up their home on Chapel street. They fear that if they take the matter be- fore the courts that sufficient damages will not be received to cover their loss. The question of taking out an injunc- tion against the tearing down of the building is also being considered.
 It is said that the New Haven road is considering the bringing of con demnation proceedings to have the lease set aside, but this would drag along in the courts if the Eagles de- sired to fight, so that this would be an impracticable move for the road to make.
 President William J Cronin of the To- cal Aerie yesterday stated that some legal measures would result from the mailing up of their home unless the road settled in a monetary way to their complete satisfaction in a few days.
 Judge Zacher will, it is stated, con- fer with officials and counsel of the New Haven road concerning a settle ment out of the courts and the officers of the Eagles hope to have this affair end in that manner.

AnIdavits Taken in the Hitler Case.

Af11davits were taken Saturday in this city in the suit of the widow of Charles A. Edwards against the Fidel- ity and Casualty Insurance company, of New York, to prove that the death of Edwards was not due to suicide. Among the affidavits taken to show the mental condition of MT. Edwards were those of Mrs. Timothy Dwight, wife of ex-President Dwight, of Yale college, and Mrs Samuel Harris, widow of the late Professor Samuel Harris, of the Yale Divinity school. Both were cous- ins of Edwards, who was at the house of ex-President Dwight on the night of the tragedy and just before he went to pass the night at the Hitler homestead where his body was found the next morning,

WIFE IS PRosTRATED.
Alleged lUnfaithfulness of Husband n
 Severe Blow.

Hartford. May 2,-At the home of her father. Rienzi A. Clarke of 521 Prospect avenue. this city Mrs. Cook, wife of the Rev. Jere K. Cook of Hampstead, L. l., who is alleged to have disappeared with seventeen year-old girl, is so prostrated by the news of her husbands faithlessness that she is unable to travel, and can not see anyone but her physician She received the news late Wednesday evening from telegraphic press reports and at first could not believe that it was true. But the detailed accuracy of the accounts of her husbands ac- ticns left little room for doubt. and so wrought up was Mrs. Cook that she was unable to sleep throughout the night, and required the services of a physician to quiet her. It is barely possible that she will go to Hemp stead with some members of her fam fly Friday morning, but even that Is doubtful in the light of her present unnerved condition
 Her husband was a former resident of this city and was known before his ministerial career as Gerry Cook His correct name, according to the city di- rectory is Jeremiah K. Cook.
 MT. Clarke this afternoon said that he had received letter bearing a Bal timore post mark which appeared by the superscription to be from Rev. Mir. Cock. MT. Clarke asked his daughter Mrs. Cook if she wished to have it opened and read and she declined say ing that she had no interest in Its con- tents. It is thought that later Mrs. Cook may consent to have the envelope opened

Baltimore, May 2.-The publication of the story concerning MT. Cook created sensation in this city where he is well known. Inquiry among his inti- mate friends failed to disclose any knowledge of his whereabouts, all de- claring that they had not seen or heard of his presence in Baltimore within a recent period.
