WANT MAcADAM ROAD
TO GARDNER LAKE
Petition to Highway Commissioner Is
Being Circulated Asking for Much
Needed Improvement.

Through an effort which has been
started by Charles l. Beebe in pre-
pairing a petition to be presented to
State Highway Commissioner Mac
Donald. it is hoped by the petitioners
that they can get him to construct d
state road from the foot of Leffingwen
hill, so called, in the town of Boz
rah, to the New london and Hart
ford turnpike in the town of Salem.
The petitioners are securing signatures
of citizens of the towns of Bozrah,
Salem and Montville, as well as Of
Norwich, whose residents use this
stretch Of road on the way to Gardner
lake.
The leaders ip the petition move
ment point out that this four miles
Of road In question is one Of the poor
est pieces that can be found around
the state, but really presents no great
difficulties in road work. as Lenff1g-
well hill could easily be cut down and
The material from there would be
handily available for fills close by
that would make the road of easy and
level grade. On both sides of the
stretch of road in question there is
good travelling. From the Norwich
end there is macadam and on the 9TH
err end it is g fine road all the way to
the Connecticut river. The ever in
creasing use Of the road by Norwich
people who go to Gardner lake gives
them special interest in seeing this
improvement carried through

Two contested divorce cases occu-
pied the attention of the civil superior
court, Judge Ralph Wheeler, in this
city On Wednesday One of them was
completed and the other partially
heard when court adjourned until this
morning.
The first case was that of Charles
a. Walker of New Haven, formerly of
Groton, against Mary L. Walker of
New London, on the grounds of deser-
ton. He wants the custody of his IA
years old son.
He claimed that Mrs. Walker ran
away from him in 1899 and had re-
fused to return to him.
Mrs. Walker said that she was mar
ried to Walker in 1897, and that he
was employed in Groton. His pay
was but IS per week and he could not
provide properly for her. For that
reason Mrs. Walker said she had gone
out to work and that she is now en-
ployed in WanamaKer's, New York.
She denied desertion and claimed that
she tools only such action as she was
forced to by circumstances. She is
the daughter of Policeman Leary Of
the New London police force.
Walker is now employed in the
factory of the Winchester Arms Co.
in New Haven.
On statutory grounds, George Leo
King of New London asks for a di-
vorce from Flora NJ. King, whose
maiden name was Markham. They
were married May 2S, 1908, and Irv-
ing Capwell, a conductor, is named as
the correspondent in the case. The

hoarder at the King home, testified to-
the alleged wrongdoing of the-w wife,

company Of Capwell twice, once talk
ing in the yard and another time on
the veranda. Mrs. Westrick said she
was a close friend of Mr.. Kings moth
er. She is 81 years of age and she
testified her husband died three years
ago. Mrs. King had told her that
several men were crazy over her.
Miss Anna w. Rehin testified to
knowing Mrs. George King, having
met her in May, 1911. She went to
call on Mrs. Westrick and met Mrs.
King quite often.
Mrs. King let her IN when she called
on Mrs. Westrick and as she waited
for Mrs. Westrick Mrs. King waved
and whistled to Mr. Capwell She
begged him to come up and he sat in
the doorway. Mrs. King also sat in
the door, put her arm around him and
kissed him.
Harry Hulivan took the four out mo-
toring and on the return Mrs. King
and Mr.. Capwell got out at Mrs.
Kings. 1t was after ten o'clock.
She testified to seeing Mrs. King
en- the street with different men about

Gases In Stomach
Poison the Blood

Gas forms in your stomach because
the food you eat ferments and turns
sour.
Allow this fermentation to go on
and these gases become poisonous and
the poison gets into the blood.
MI-O-NA stomach tablets stop the
fermentation almost instantly, turn
the poisonous gases into liquid, and
eliminates the poison mostly through
the kidneys.
If you have any stomach trouble
such as gas. sourness, heavinesst fat
ulency, or shortness of breath, MILO
