A LETTER AND ANSWER.


Editor TIMES:
Dear Sir:--I am young man. not
quite of age. j graduated from high
school couple of years ago. and since
then have been employed in one OF the
big industries out east Of town, so my
days are pretty well occupied. It's my
evenings that bother me, as / don't
really know just what to do with my
self after supper. / can go to the thea
tres and show places, / suppose, or run
in and play a game or two, of pool. and
that's about what ! have been doing, but
somehow of late l have been growing
dissatisfied with this way of putting in
my evenings. Seems as though I ought
to be getting more real value out of all
these hours of spare time. Mother
agrees with me. and suggests that L
take UP some sort of study for these
long winter evenings. My work al the
shop is not SO hard but what l fave
plenty of energy left after my eigh.
hours out there. You are a newspaper,
man. can't you kindly suggest some
thing2 Yours respectfully.

MEN REJECT PLAN
NIGHT TROLLEY WORKERS AGREE WITH DAY MEN IN TURNING DOWN PRO-
 POSAL

New Haven, May H-At a meeting of the night trippers of the local troI- ley union held yesterday afternoon it was unanimously decided by the members to sustain the action of the day men last Saturday in rejecting the suggestions of the Connecticut company in regard to the wage scale. As a consequence of this decision by the night men the matter will now rest in the hands of the joint confer ence board of the Trolleymen's un- ion and their decision at meeting to be held here Thursday will Joe pre- scented to the officials Of the Connec- ticut, company.
 < The original demands of the men in regard to the wage question was for a raise to 90 cents per hour flat. This was refused by the company which in turn offered a graduated raise to the men which has now been rejected by the trolleymen. This conference board is a joint group of men repre- senting the various divisions of the trolleymen's union about the state.

REDUCING THE COST OF LIVING.

A refrigerator makes every penny count when ice is used in it the year around You can carry two or three days supply of meat, milk, butter, etc., plan the meals ahead and pre- vent waste. Keeping meat on ice makes it more tender and more pleas ing to the taste. It also preserves meat, butter, and milk by contamina- lions from odors in the house and vegetables, such as tomates, lettuce and celery. Refrigerators are dust proof and clean, keeping the supplies in them wholesome and sanitary. With ice always in .refrigerators, cold dishes can be made more attractive and more pleasing to the taste. Food does not have to be put in the open win- dOws where the dust and bacteria is blown from the street and settles on it. There is also the advantage of having ice ready for sudden emergen- cies of sickness or other extraordinary calls for 1t. Celery, fruit, oysters, etc. are much more palatable when served with ice.

Bowels Get Weak
AS Age Advances
The First Necessity is to Keep the
Bowels Gently Open With Mild
Laxative-Tonic.


Bowels Gently Open With a Mild
Laxatve-Tonic.
Healthy old age is so absolutely
dependent upon the condition of the
bowels that great care should be
taken to see that they act regularly
The fact is that as age advances the
stomach muscles become weak and
inactive and the liver does not store
up the juices that are necessary to
prompt digestion.
Some help can be obtained by eat
ing easily digested foods and by
plenty of exercise, but the latter is
irksome to most elderly people. One
thing is certain, that state of con-
stipation should always be avoided
as it is dangerous to life and health
The best plan is to take a mild laxa-
tive as often as is deemed necessary
But with equal certainty it is sug-
gested that cathartics, purgatives,
physics, salts and pills be avoided,
as they do but temporary good and
are so harsh as to be a shock to a
delicate system.
A much better plan, and one that
thousands of elderly people are fol-
lowing, is to take a gentle laxative
tonic like DIR. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin,
which acts as nearly like nature as
is possible. In fact, the tendency of
this remedy is to strengthen the stom-
ach and bowel muscles and so train
| them to act naturally again, when
medicines of all kinds can usually be
dispensed with. This is the opinion of
many people of different ages, among
them Mr.. Daniel Shively, Coral, Mich
IAd,,nrf 4
