A GREAT PUBLIC BENEFIT

However prejudiced some people are
against advertised medicines the gem
eral public is greatly benefited by
some. For instance such standard
remedies as the Cod Liver and Iron
preparation called VINOL. Its ingred-
tents are printed on every bottle and
its worth has been proven so often
in cases Of severe coughs and colds
and to create health and strength for
the weak and rundown that its sale
will continue to increase in the future
as II has in the past.

 Having recovered from his recent illness John -O'Brien has returned here from Bridgeport and resumed work.
 The actions of Charles Taylor, the absconoing employe of Emory P. San ford, the meat dealer. indicate that Taylor's mind. is unbalanced. When last fall Taylor showed a letter of recommendation from the Y. M. c. A of Hartford. Recently he announced that an uncle had bequeathed him ST. 900 and that another uncle had given him three horses which were soon to be sent here. On the strength, of the alleged legacy. which was purely a fiction of his fancy. Taylor bargained with T. E. Platt & Son for an auto mobile and borrowed 2o from John Beers of Hopewell. On Tuesday of last week MT. Sanford gave Taylor $l7 and sent him to Sport Hill to get a calf. On the trip down Taylor called on a resident of Easton Center and arrang- horses which he said were coming from New York. Then he drove to Bridge port and deserted his team which the police picked up late the same night.
 
 York where he tried to borrow $40 from Alex. Watt. Jr., who former y worked for MT. Sanford. and whose acquaintance Taylor formed while MT. Watt was here lately on his wedd ng trip. Watt refused to lend him any thing and suspecting something wrong at once notified MT. Sanford. Nothing has since been heard of Taylor who told Watt he was going to Baltimore to see a cousin. Mr. Sanford really loses nothing by the affair as the money Taylor took represents the wages which would have been due him April 1.
 Last winter when he was here Hal Sanford made it known that he felt aggrieved because the town had re- moved the stone wall from two sides of his lot on the Ridge and used the material for State road construction in the adjoining highway. He also found fault with the fence of posts and wire with which the wall was replaced. A few days ago Attorney Livermore. in behalf of Mr. Sanford. wrote to First Selectman Banks asking by what au- thority the stone wall had been re- moved MT. Banks made inquiries and learned that permission regarding its disposition was given by D. S. San ford, cousin of the complainant. who had obtained it from Miss J. H. San- ford, his aunt. Hal Sanford was al the tiGe in Europe. He says his aunt gave the permission through being erroneously informed that he had promised the fence to the town. This promise. he explains, was conditional on like donation by Fl. s. Osborn which condition was not Fulfilled. MT, Sanford came up from New York on Tuesday and told Selectman Banks that he would probably accept by way Of settlement the replacement of the him. adding that if this were not dona he should seek redress in the courts,
