WHY DO THEY DO IT?

Why people should weep over the imaginary sorrows shown on the stage, when there is so much real sorrow in the world, I never could un- derstand,'' says well known writer.
 And it is just as hard for us to see why people will suffer needlessly for months or years. Here is the case of M. Carter of South Akron. O., who Says:
 For two years I was in a badly rundown condition, felt weak and miserable and lost considerable flesh. Then I heard that Vinoi was a great thing to build up the body and create new strength.
 New. after taking vinol and get ting so much good from 1t I have de- eided to write and tell you that it has made me strong and we'll again, and have gained in weight too"
 If you are weak and siclxly, need new strength and better blood, take Vino1, our delicious cod liver and iron remedy, for depend upon 1t, that is what you need and it win build you ID. We guarantee it-noney back If you are not satisfied. Broadway Pharmacy, G. G. Engles. Norwich,

ELECTION DAY IN WESTERLY
Systematic Fight Against Lcense-Ofcias Polling P1aces-Dry Regime Begins in Pawcatuck-Catholic Club Established in Elegantly Fitted Quarters Town Votes For Continuation of License.

There was a state election in Rhode Island Tuesday, but in Westerly, the stronghold of republicanism, interest Was centered on the license vote, the majority of workers being on the side O. no-license. Ministers and merchants were assisting in getting out the vote and many owners of touring cars loaned them for the day, with chauf- feurs to aid in the party work. Never before was there such devoted and sys- tenatic work against license, caused by the town of Westerly going into the no-Ecense column for the first time a year ago. If there was Sys- te1natic working for license it was not manifested in the vicinity of the poll Ing places, and there was no scurry- ing about in automobiles to get out the elusion that the republican nominees For senator, representatives and state officers would receive the full party Foee, all effort was devoted to the vote Rr> the license question.
 The First representative polling dis lrict was in Unity hall and the officers FePe: Ira B. Crandall moderator: John }. Dunn, clerk; Robert G. Thackeray, Everett A. Kingsley, republican super >~fsors; Dwight Cornell and Edward Farrell, democratic supervisors; Her bert P. Clark, officer.
 The polling place of the Second dis trict was in the town hall and the election officials were: Eugene B. Pen dleton, moderator; Lewis Stanton, elocun, republican supervisors; Hor- Dee Swan. Bernard Cristy, democratic tupervisors; Adam Archie, officer.

In the First district there were IS defective and blank ballots and in the Second there were 16 blank ballots The First district last year gave majority of 65 for license, and the Sec ond district 50 against license. The to- tai vote on license in the First dis trct was 559 and in the Second 622. grand total of 1,1S1. The total vo @ of the town is 143S. Therefore all but 457 qualified electors voted on the li- cense question.
 Tn the First district there were 299 straight republican tickets, 96 dem ocratic, 13 prohibition and socialist. There were 136 split tickets, blank and defective ballots.
 Tn the Second district there were 362 straight republican tickets. 10s demo- cratic, 20 prohibition, 2 socialist and [ socialist labor.
 The result was a complete surprise to ell who engaged in the active work of the day. for up to the time of the commencement of the count no one could be found to openly declare opin- ion that the town of Westerly would continue In the license column for an other year. It is self-evident that those who voted for license a year ago were satisfied with the experiment and favored It's continuance. Statewise there were four tickets on the official ballot, republican, democratic, prohi- bitfon, socialist and socialist labor, and
