 Philadelphia Players Coming.
 The following from Philadelphia pare indicates that the Quaker City will have a numerous representation at the tournament this year
 Philadelphia, while one of the cen ters of roque enthusiasm, has only had one national champion. G. w. John son, who won the title in 1883, 1889 and 1S93 though at, present they have no less than five men classified as first division players, which means that they have in some tournaments cap tured either first of second places in Hogeland, who won the second divi- sion title in 1902 and who last year made thA best showing of all the Phil adelphians, winning nine of his IA games and finishing high in the list: J. c. Kirk president of the National association who last year won the second division pribe but who has hardly been playing up to form so far this season; I. F. Felton, who made a very good showing last year; Horace T. Webb. ex-middle states champion, and G. B. Young, a sensational but somewhat cratic player. All of these men will go to Norwich this year, and in addition J. E. Webb, J. NJ. Craemer, Dr. Zartment, Dr. Brooks and Profess sor Morrison of the lower divisions This will give Philadelphia a very strong representation.

CURES PIMpLEs QUICKLY.
Simple Remedy That Clears Skin
 Quickly of All Eruptions.

For several weeks past The Lee & Osgood Go. have done the biggest bus mess they ever had in any one article in selling Hokara, the skin food that has won so many friends in Norwich
 It has been found to be an absolute cure not only for all minor skin tfou- bles, such as pimples. blackheads, herpes, acne scaly scalp. complexion blemishas, itching feet, piles. etc. but for the worst sores, ulcers. or even chronic eczema and salt rheum. There has yet to be found any form of wound or disease affecting the skin or mu- cous membrane that Iiokara does not heal. and it's action is so instantaneous that those who try 1t are simply de- lighted with it right from the start
 In spite of its unusual curative pow CTS, the price Is trifiing. To convince every one of its merits The Lee X Osgood Co. will sell liberal-sized jar for 25e: larger size 50c. And remem- Der that if you don not think it does what IL claims. you get your money back You certainly can afford to try it on this plan

Engineer. Believtlle Horseshoe & Rolling NH Co, Bellevile Ont. August 2lF ly0s.
 To the readers of The Bulletin: The Giroux Mfg. co., American Alakers of Parisian Sage, wish to state that they do not guarantee Parisian Sage To grow hair on bald heads, because in most cases the hair root is dead, In the case of MT. Armstrong the hair root was not dead and, knowing as we do, the astonishing hair growing virtue of Parisian Sage, we see no reason why it should not grow hair on the head of MT. Armstrong.
 But we do guarantee Parisian Sage (and so does The Lee & Osgood Co to stop falling hair. dandruff and itch iug scalp in two weeks, or money back.
 Parisian Sage is daintily per- gumed hair dressing. not sticky or greasy. and is used extensively by ladies who desire brilliant and lux uriant hair that attracts and fasei- mates.

TROLLEY TROUBLES.
Car Stalled on Montville Line-Feed Wires Crossed on North Main Street.

A stalled car on the Montville line caused a delay of half an hour in the trolley schedule between Norwich and New London early Friday evening. The trouble happened to the car leaving New London at 7.15 o'clock as 1t was going up Chappell Hill, New London The disabled car was taken back to New London and replaced by another car, this taking about half an hour. In consequence, during the rest of the evening" the cars were half an hour behind, the MontviIle cars being sent through on the time of the through Willimantic-NewL London cars and vice versa, the cars from Willimantic to Norwich were turned back at Franklin square.
 About 10.30 Friday night the trolley line car was called out by trouble on North Main street near the gas house. It was found that two of the compa- ny's feed wires had become crossed and were sparkling, the insulation hay- ing been worn off. The trouble was remedied without difficulty.
 The stone train which distributed material from the stone crusher at Trading Cove along the new macadam road where it is needed was put on again on Friday. The work car had been off for about two weeks while the crusher gang were excavating for the new road.

Bet His Last poIIar On p;xie.

The accompanying extract is from a letter sent to the Springfield Repub. lican by T. II. Boisseau Of Petersbure and is part of a speech delivered bS Jefferson Davis at q banquet of tho Louisiana division, of the army ol Northern Virginia in 1878.
 We are at peace. and I trust will ever remain so. We have re- gently been taught that those whom we had considered enemies, measuring them by standard bearers whose hearts were filled with malignity. that they in our hour of trouble had hearts beat ing in sympathy with our grief We have been taught by their gen. erosity that bounded with quick response to the afffiction of the South, that the vast body of peO- pie at the North are our brethren still. And the heart would be dead to every generous impulse that would try to stimulate in you now a feeling of hostility to those where so large a majority have manifested nothing but brotherly love for you. And while we now accept the situation in the language of the day. yet as Bill Arp said, though thorough ly reconstructed, T bet my last dollar on Dixie"

Blue BIooded" People: A Discovery.

The researches Of Dr. Reichert, says Science Siftings, have incidentally shown that green, violet, purple, mad der, mahogany, brown. 'indigo-blue and lilac blood are to be found in the low CT aimals. It is possible that there will be less boasting of blue blood when it becomes known that blue blood has never been found in yer tebrate although it is common in lob sters of 1le deep sea variety and in some crabs. It is an interesting fact that red blood and blue blood are never present in the same body The blood of the scorpions. is rich in haem- ocNanin. giving d rare blue tint to the blood, while the flies of the Diptera genus show the brilliant red of the Ilaemoglobin. In no instance has it been found that both haemocyanin and haemoglobin were encased in the same tissue.

coMsTock,s COMEBACK.
Fishers Aruguments Thoroughly Rid-
 died by MontviIIe Mans Answer.

Chairman Comstock seems to have made a pretty fair job of his reply to Professor Fishers letter regarding Judge Baldwin's unavailability as a democratic candidate, says an ex- change. AS a test in letter writing contest, from the viewpoint of a man up a tree 1t looks as if he had filled that celebrated epistle full of holes. He takes each objection in sequence. nails it to the post, plugs it plumb in the center with the unerring aim of an expert, and converts the whole docu- ment into a perforated screen, viewed through which every democratic pros pect pleases, and only man is vile who can't see the rosy sunrise. Howsoever it may impress the rank and file. the interesting and instructive exchange of argument is adding conviction to the public impression that the cam paign of 1910 is doing a great educa- tional work along the line of a cor respondence school.
