MR. CATLIN ON THE
 BILL TO ESCHEAT
 CURTAIN DEPOSITS
His Opposition to It Is
 Purely in the Interests of Claimants Who May Ap-

pear.
 Dear Sir:-
 My attention has been called to an item in your columns few days since. with reference to bill before the Gen. eral Assembly transferring unclaimed deposits" to the State Treasury. Your writer says: ''It was understood that some of the Banks have invested these deposits in their bank buildings and that the bill would compel such a change of investment as might tenn porarily lessen their interest rates. 7. The banks did oppose that bill. but solely in the interest of their deposit ors, not because it would make any change in their investments. The four banks in this city reported last July to the Comptroller. less than $3,00O as ''unclaimed'' for twenty years: that would not build many buildings" on Main street. The largest bank in the State with over thirty millions de- posits. reports about fifteen thousand dollars of such deposits. and is reduc- ing the amount every year. At the hearing before the Bank Committee, several examples were cited where ac- counts had been dormant" over forty years. then books had come in. and been paid with accumulated interest; one had been dormant" seventy-two years. and the location of the owner WAS uuhnOWu LO tH6 DdHA unIi NIC book was presented. Under the pro- posed law. that would have been escheated to the State for forty-two years. and rtghtful owners of the mon ey would never have received it. The Banks do not care for the money. much of it is in small accounts which they would be glad to- have closed. but they owe 1t to their customers. and wish to be in position to pay it whenever books are presented. without going to Hart ford and paying court expenses to prove the ownership. They claim the money does not belong to the State. The amount the State would seize un- der the proposed bill would probably be less than one hundred thousand dollars received from over 75 banks and made of several hundred small in- dividual accounts. The trouble and ex- pense of getting any of these deposits back from the State when books were presented. would be very great write this to correct a false impression the public has received about these de- eposits and the great ofdce buildings" erected to invest them.

QUARREL OVER
 INSURANCE FUND
 GOES TO COURTS
Injunction Sought Against Officers of Sick Benefit Society by Fellow Mem- bers.

Dissension has cropped out in the ranks of the Bohemian R.C. Sick Ben- eft society of this city. The cause of the wrangle is the insurance fund of the society. Property. to the amount of s2.50o, of the society has been attached in favor of Joseph Bar ta and others. There are a number of plaintiffs and defendants named. All are members of the society.
 At meeting, held Nov. 2S. 1908. at which there were 30 present. 24 sig nified their approval of the withdraw al from the insurance society. At . latter meeting it was decided to di- vide the money of the society among the members, pro rata.
 At a regular meeting, held Jan. 30, 1903, the plaintiffs in the case. Charles J. Tichey, Peter Slajs and Joseph Krysl, were named as trustees. At that tinSe there was $1.292.43 in the the Mechanics and Farmers Savings bank and about $100 held by the off, cers.
 The money was not distributed and. at a meeting March 27, 19os,the pres ident of the society. venceI Micn... eject the three trustees from the meeting. The defendants then, illeg- ally it is claimed, proceeded to elect new trustees, add amendments to the bylaws. and to suspend the plain tiffs from membership. The plaintiffs claim an injunction against the so- ciety and its officers, preventing them from amending the bylaws; also against Vencel Michel. Vence1 Novey and Joseph F. Tichey. enjoining them from acting as trustees and from hay ing charge of the money in the banks. Plaintiffs also claim $2,50o damages. The plaintiffs attorneys are Canfield, Judson & Pullman.

Loss of appetite, pimples and other eruptions, bad complexion, languor and lassitude, mental and physical weariness, so common at this time of year, are all indications that the blood is wanting in the power to defend the body, be- cause they all indications that it needs cleans ing, enriching and yitalizing.
 The medicine to take is Hoods Sarsaparilla, according to the experience and testimony of thousands of people every spring.
 Hoods Sarsaparilla makes the blood of the right quality and quantity, y,-normal in red and white corpuscles and all other constituents.
 It cures all humors, catarrh and rheumatism, relieves that tired feeling restores the appetite cures paleness, weakness, nervousness, and builds mp the whole system.
 It will make you feel better, look better eat and sleep better, and give you the best protection possible against all infectious and contagious diseases.
 "I am glad that such a medicine as Hoods Sarsaparilla can be had, and write this letter to thank you for it. My experience may help someone else by telling them where good medi- cine for them may be found, and will say, doubt if should be alive now if I had not taken Hoods Sarsaparilla- was troubled for long time with spells of great pain in my stom-

Last spring used the medicine again as was not feeling very well, and had rheumatism quite badly. was also tired and weak all the time. When had taken two bot ties felt all right again. It is truly splendid stomach tonic and spring medicine" Mrs. Ed Champlin, Groton, N. r., Jan. g, 1909.
 nRrHood's Sarsaparilla effects its wonderful cures not simply because it contains sarsaparila, but because it combines the utmost remedial values of more than 20 different ingredients, each greatly strengthened and enriched by this pecu- liar combination. These ingredients are the very remedies that successful physicians prescribe for the same diseases and ailments. There is no real substitute for Hood Sarsaparilla- If urged to buy any preparation said to be s'just as good, H you may be it is inferior, costs less to make and yields the dealer aslarger profit.
