Good Grippe Weather

This kind lof weather produces epi- demics of grippe and heavy colds. Protect yourself by
 1st. Wearing warm, dry clothing. 2nd. By keeping your feet dry.
 3rd. By eating plenty of nourish-
 ing food.
 4th. By taking dose of pleasant
 to-taste Sirolin night and
 morning.
 With these precautions you need not fear the grippe, or any other pulmonary affection.
 Modern medicine is largely a science of means to prevent disease. Sirolin-the celebrated Swiss prepar- ation-not only prevents colds and coughs, the grippe and other disorders of the respiratory organs, but it relieves these ailments, when they are develop ed, in few days.

Withdraws Appsal and es<tiss Pinss and costs--TstaI sf eee5-Fsrfsits License.

John McQuillan, who took an appeal from the decision of Judge William A. Arnold of the local police court Satur- day morning, at the time he WAS charged with violating the liquor law and with attempting to brfbe a states witness, has withdrawn his appeal and paid the fines and costs imposed at the time of his conviction in the cases re- ferred to. These amounted to $50 on each count of three for violating the liquor law on Sunday and $100 for at- tempting to brtbe 8 witness, amount ing in all to about 32s6:
 It is probable. inasmuch as t is . second conviction, that Mir. NcQuillan will be obliged to forfeit his license bond and his liocnse to sell. Judge Arnold will, according to procedure In such cases. notify the county commits sioners, who will declare his license re- voked and 90 notify ME. McQuiilan of the fact, after which he cannot sell liquor in this commonwealth. Mir. Me- Quilian wi1l, according to the law. bl adjudged an unsuitable perDon to sn- gage in the tra6ae in this state for . period of one year.
 The number of the saloons in tho town will therefore be reduced by one. as the law now provides that there may only be one. saloon for each 800 population, except in such places as Willimantic, where the 1icenses were in force prior to the passage of tho new law.
 Wherever a conviction is made in such a case the law states that the county commissioners cannot grant that hcenSe to any other perg0n.
