1t Is planned to start work today on
Inc water mains which are to supply
lf1e new weave shed of the Ponemah
company on Norwich avenue. The new
mains VIII be connected with the pres
ent ten inch mains in the mill yard.
The pipes, all in twelve foot lengths,
for the mains have been here for sew
eral weeks. there being los twelve inch,
103 ten inch, 43 eight inch and 80 six
inch iron pipes. Besides the interior
piping Of the weave shed there are to
be eight six-inch two-way hydrants,
two at each end of the shed and four
on the side toward the road. The con-
tract for this has been let to the Gen
eral Fire Extinguisher company, who
will also connect with the mains to get
water for the automatic sprinkler sys-
tenn which they are to install.
Because of the plan to build a second
big weave shed the other side of the
one now being built, an exact duplicate
of the first, no hydrants will be put in
on this side. The plans now drawn

provide for second weave shed of the

cloth shed 100 feet wide between the
two. 1t is not yet decided just when
this second weave shed will be built,
but very probably not until the first
shed is running smoothly.

sheds are in operation it will necessi-
tate a considerable increase in the
company's spinning machinery. Room
for this, it is understood. will be OBJ
tanned by raising the southernmost or
No. mill two more stories In height,
thus providing for an ample number of
spinning machines.
The work on the weave shed is pro-
crossing in a satisfactory manner; the
work on the concrete roof having
reached the half way point. The iron
rafters for the last sections or the saw
tooth roof are now being placed in po-
sition. The trestle work for the siding
at the northeast corner of the new mill
is now being laid.

CAREFUL DOCTOR
Prescribed Change Of Food Instead
of Drugs.

1t takes considerable courage for a
doctor to deliberately prescribe only
food for despairing patient instead
of resorting to the usual list Of med
icines.
There are some truly scientific ply
sicians among the present generation
who recognize and treat conditions as
they are. and should be treated regard
less of 1.-The value to their pockets.
Here's an instance:
-Four years ago I was taken with
severe gastritis and nothing would
stay on my stomach, so that l was
on the verge of starvation.
Il heard of doctor who had a sum-
mer cottage near me = specialist
from N. Y, and as a last hope, sent
for him.
After he examined me carefully
he advised me to try a small quantity
of aGrape-Nuts at frst, then as my
stomach became stronger to eat more.
II kept at it and gradually got so /
could eat and digest three teaspoon
fuls. Then / began to have color in
my face, memory became clear, where
before everything seemed blank.
My limbs got stronger and l could
walk So 1 steadily recovered
Now after a year on Grape Nuts l
weigh 1s3 lbs. My people were sur
prised at the way I grew feshy and
strong on this food"

COLLECTING FROM SCHOOLS.
Expected That There Will Be, as Usu-
al, Large Contribution by the Chill
dren for the Dinners for the Poor.

Today the work of collecting the
many contributions by the school chill
dren to the City Mission for dinners
for the poor on Thanksgiving will be
underway, and continue into Wednes-
day, If necessary. Practically all the
schools enter into this giving, and bar
rels were left at the schoolhouses on
Monday to receive the offerings. There
will be vegetables of all kinds forming
the larger part Of the contributions,
but there will also be tea coffee. jel-
lies and fruit in small amounts.
City Missionary c. A. Northrup and
the committee of that department Of
the United Workers will have busy

At Public Institutions.
AS usual there win be special Thanks
giving dinners at all the public institu-
tons, turkey dinners being provided
for the County Home, Rock Nook Home
and Sheltering Arms by The Bulletin.
while at the state hospital the inmates
will have a choice menu, and at the
almshouse and Jail sparerib dinners
will be served, with the usual filings.
There are now at the jail SO prisoners,

Prices of Poultry.
Dealers. have begun to get in their
supply of Thanksgiving poultry, which
began to arrive on Monday. There is
prospect that the Thanksgiving bird
will cost little more than one year
ago. Just yhy the greater cost Is to
be evidence Is not explained. except
for the increased demand.
Cold weather Is reported in the west,
which will be favorable for shipping
the turkeys. 1t was stated Monday the
best turkeys would probably retail for
30 to 80 cents pound and from that
down to 20 cents. There are usually
poor turkeys in the market, and these
may be bought even lower. Ducks and
geese will bring from 23 to rs cents.
Chickens are likely to be sold at
about the usual pr ce.About 20 to %
cents will be charged for the best
chickens and the poorer ones can be
bought as low as is cents per pound.
Besides the native birds, much OF
the poultry will come in from Ohio
and New Jersey. Years ago, consid-
erabls poultry was shipped here from
Vermont, but they are not raising
nearly as many turkeys up there now
as formerly. While the demand is all
ways good for all the Nermonters can
raise, it is claimed it costs too much to
IdIC1n the turkeys ana LneFe Is llIIie
profit in the business.
With the high prices for poultry, it
is claimed more beef will be sold for
this Thanksgiving than ever. Many
will not pay the big prices at which
the best turkeys will be held.
1t looks as IL the Thanksgiving din
ner was going to coast more than it did
one year ago. Provisions of almost
every kind have advanced in price. To
stock up the larger for the great New
England festival will mean a consider
able larger expenditure than usual.
