CLEARS THE COMPLEXION
 OVERNIGHT
eRmpIes, Rash. Eruptions, Etc., Quickly
 Eradicated by New Skin Remedy.

Ever since it's discovery, poslam. the new skin remedy, has, in it's extraor- dinary accomplishments, exceeded the most sanguine expectations of the emi- nent specialist who gave 1t to the world. It has cured thousands of cases of eczema and eradicated facial and other dishgurements of years standing. The terrible itching attend ing eczema is stopped with the first app1ication, giving proof of it's cura- tive properties at the very outset. 2 In less serious skin affections, such as spimples, rash, herpes, blackheads, acne, barbers itch, etc., results show after an overnight application, only small quantity being required to effect a cure. Those who use polsam for these minor skin troubles should inn nediately secure one of the special 5o-cent packages recently adopted to meet such needs. Both the 50-cent package and the regular g jar may be obtained at Lee & Osgood's and Smiths drug store in Norwich, Larue's in Put nam, woodward's in Danielson and Cnesebro's in Willimantic, and other leading drug stores.
 Samples for experimental purposes may be had free of charge by writing direct to the Emergency Laboratories. S2 West Twenty Street, New York City.

 Spanish is spoken by the educated classes: they are rapidly learning Eng fish and their one desire is to come to America. The Tao or farming class is iIliterate. Their chief occupation is raising rice.

TAFTVILLE
Charles Gadbois of PIainfieId, Former Local Resident, Missins-viIiae' Mention.

The death of Charles Gadbois of Plainf1eld. for many years a resident of Taftville, was reported about the village Thursday morning, but was later proven untrue by his daughter, Miss Annie Gadbofs, who reached Taftville from Plainfield on the 2.40 o'clock trolley Thursday afternoon. She stated that her father had been i'll, his mind having been affected, and that he strayed away from his home in Plainfieid Tuesday, and although the police had been informed and search had been made for him he had not been found when she left Plainfield. MT. Gadbois was a man of about 60 years and it is possible that he may have come to harm, but his family have not given up hope of his recov- cry. He lived in Taftville until last spring, being a weaver in the Ponemah mills. He is the father of Eugene Gadbois, who was married in Taftvillc Wednesday.

Ii Maklna Of saIads.

Within the last few years salads
have advanced in favor with us. until
now they form an important part OF
many meals. Salads are especially
popular during the summer months,
when little or no meat IS eaten. For
a good salad there must be three
things considcred-a good dressing.
good materials and n judgment in
combining ingredients.
In the beginning let us remember
that the best green salads, uei those
that have been wdTls chilled before
they are put into the salad bowl for
mixing. The arrangement and gar.
nishing of a salad is often all that dis.
tinguishes a tempting, appetizing and
wholesome one from one decidedly the
reverse. The vinegar used In salad
dressings is an important item. Tar.
ragon vinegar is not used as exten-
sively as formerly. though II is still
a favorite with many. Celery allowed
to steep in vinegar for n few weeks
gives It a flavor we'll liked. The ad.
dition OF a few drops of maple sirup
to malt vinegar gives a zest to a salad
dressing. quite new and the sweet
ness impaired is like by many.
At this season Of the year there is
great variety Of leafy salads. The
different varieties OF lettuce. water
cress and the tender shoots of nastur
tium are all good. Excellent salads
can be made OF almost any vegetable
Boiled fresh mushrooms make de
llghtful salad when mixed with a
French salad dressing containing q
little mustard.
Fresh leftover meats and fish with
seasonirgs make very appetizing sal
ads. The common chicken salad
when we can afford to have It, seems
like a new salad when the white
meat is cut in thin slices and cold
slaw is substituted instead OF celery
Add tablespoonful OF Chilli sauce tc
a mayonnaise and the result will be q
chicken salad quite out OF the ordi
nary.
A great improvement can be made
in many OF our vegetable salads By
the addition OF few pecans. walnut,
or peeled filberts.
A really pretty salad may be served
in a pineapple shell, using the fruit
for the salad. When brought upoI
the table It has the appearance OF {
perfectly intact pineapple.

are apt to be savage in disposition.
To aid the housewife in the attempt
TO serve nutritious soups without the

will perhaps be suggestive:

together and simmer In six quarts of
water about three hours. Rub through
