HUNTED WITH FERRET.
Law Violation Costs Israel ThetreauIt
 S2o.69 and Leon L'Heureux S10.69.

Because they hunted with ferret, in violation of the game laws of the state, and were caught by Game War den Harry E.. Battey of East Killing ly and hIs deputy, Christopher John son, Israel Thetreault and Leon L'Heureux were before the town court Friday morning and paid fines and costs.
 Their trouble commenced Thursday when game wardens found them hunt ing rabbits with 8 ferret on the Groome farm, near Elmville.
 In court Friday, Mir. Thetreault, who is in the neighborhood of 60 years of age, admitted that he knew that he was hunting in violation of the law, and assumed the responsibility for the hunting trip. He and L'Heureux, who is about r years of age are joint owners of the ferret.
 The costs in each case amounted to $19.60. and in each case contained a $10 fee for the game warden. In the case of L'Heureux, however, Game Warden Battey agreed to give up his s10 fee, ut did not do so in the case of the older man. Judge Back fined each of the defendants $1, so the total cost to Thetreault was $20,69, and to L'Heureux $10.69, which they paid. Prosecuting Attorney Bill remarked to one of the defendants that it would be much cheaper for them to buy tur- key, which was agreed to, especially in consideration of the fact that nc l rabbits were caught on the trip.

 Lacking Proper Parental Care.

First Selectman Robert E. Mitchell has made application to the probate court for the commitment of Sophia Potvin, aged ', and David Roberts, aged g, to the county home at Putnam.

Adopt a Plan

A definite plan is the foundation of success in saving.
 It doesn't make much differ ence what the plan of saving is, so long as it's systematic. Some people never spend the dimes they get-they put them in a con venient home savings bank.
 Some men shave themselves and drop into the bank the money they would have to pay the bar Der. Others walk to the office and save the carfare.
 You can select any plan which suits you. Regularity in your saving is the essential thing.

The increased use of whiskey for colds is causing considerable discussion among the medical fraternity. It is an certain other ingredients and taken properly From your druggist get two ounces of Glycerine and half an ounce of Concentrated Pine Compound. Take these two ingredients home and put them into half pint of good whiskey. Shake well and take one to two tea spoonfuls after each meal and at bed time" Smaller doses to children accord ing to age This treatment often knocks the worst cough or cold in day. But be sure to get only the genuine (Globe) Concentrated Pine. Each half ounce bottle comes in a sealed tin screw-top case. If your druggist does not have it experiment with cheap uncertain mix lures It is very risky. Local druggists say this has had a marvellous demand for the past six years.
