Court Evidence to
 Value of Rheun1a
Before Using Judge Rarhorst Was Cripple on crutohes From Attacks of Rheumatism.

If you suffer from Rheumatism and do not read this advice, then the terri ble disease must have robbed you of your power to be fair to yourself:
 T. John Barhorst, Justice of the Peace of Mclean Township, Ft. Lo- ramie, Ohio, do certify that after treat ment by three doctors without re- suit, have been cured of a very bad case of Rheumatism by using two bot ties of RHEUMA. It is now two years since l used the remedy, and I am still as well as ever. Previous to using RHEUMA, I was a cripple, walk ing with crutches. and I feel it my duty to let other sufferers from Rheu- natism know what it will do The re- suit seems almost miraculous to me. l have advised RHEUNA to at least q dozen persons, and each one speaks as highly of it it as l. I will answer anyone suffering from the disease if a two-cent stamp is enclosed"
 You can secure a bottle of RHEU MA for only 50 cents at The Lee t& Osgood Co, and they say if not as advertised, money back. It is just as good for Gout, .Arthritis. Lumbago and Sciatica

BUT ONE OBJECT.
Consumers League Neutral as to Suf-
 fragist and Anti -Suffragist

To suffragists and anti suffragists, merchants and labor unions. A state ment from the general secretary of the Consumers league:
 The position of the Consumers league on all matters not relating definitely to the one object for which it is working is neutral one
 Its one object is the amelioration of the conditions of labor of wage earning women and children in the state of Connecticut, and in working for this object it is dealing with such matters as oVerwork, underpay, non enforcement of the law, lack of training and child labor
 The league is not affiliating in even the most remote way with suffrage or anti suffrage associations, with labor unions or employers associations, Such affiliations would result in en- tanglements which would prove det- rimental to it's work.
 The officers and directors of the league are known in some cases to be anti-suffrag gists like the first vice president, and in some cases to be suffragists, like the auditor in most cases their position on this subject is not known 10 the secretary of the league. so far dis associated with suf- frage propaganda Is the work of the league.
 The subject is never brought lip in committee meetings. The secretary of the league has made ft a point of honor in her lectures on industrial subjects never to introduce it, at the same time assuming the privilege of accepting invitations from the various organizations in the state which are directly or indirectly interested in the good of womankind. To begin to dis criminate in favor of or against audi ences would be unfortunate. Indeed the secretary earnestly desires and asks the opportunity of appearing be- fore executive committees to explain the object and work of the league
 The secretary has received a letter from Mrs. Florence Kelley. who is 6 suffragist, in which she writes that she has. of course, no right to exploit her secretaryship of the National Con suners' league in the interest of sui frage, and has asked the state organ izer of the Connecticut Woman Suf- frage association to call in any cards bearing her name and title in con- nection with suffrage.
 The Secretary sincerely hopes that support to the industrial work of the Consumers league, which is difficult at best.

RESERVES DECISION OVER
 RUNNING BOARD RULES. Hearing Before Utilities Commission -EmpIoyes Want Order Towards General Public.

After a hearing of considerable length at Hartford Thursday, the pub lie utilities commission reserved de- cision on the petition of the Amalga- mated Association of Street and Elec- tTic Employees of America asking for a modification of the order passed by the commission June 26 1912, which requires the Connecticut company to make a rule to prevent the public from riding on running boards of open cars. The petitioners want the rule directed to the public and not the company.
 A. B. O'Keefe appeared for the pc titionerS and B. l. Spock for the com pany. Martin E. Breen, president of the association, Charles MinniX a conductor and William E. Boylan tes- tified in support of the petition. The former said that in test case in Orange the man arrested for the of fense was discharged by the justice and it was on the advice of the justice that the modification was asked for. Gen. Manager Punderford of the Con necticut company said there had been no accident since Jan. 1, for such rid ing. He said it would disrupt the serV- ice to have a conductor stop a car to have persons arrested He declared the rule made no difference in running board riding in busy hours of the day. MT. Punderford said he had enforced tne order or Jne coinl1lSSloH' he de- nied any knowledge Of Superintendent Judges having told conductors not to enforce it. In reply to a question he said the rule is impracticable.
 Chairman Higgins of the commission said 1t was a serious question whether or not the commission had the power to issue an order against the general public. MT. Spock said the only per- sons appearing in favor of the petition were the trOlleymen. He did not be- lieve a modified order would be valid.

DOW I TRUST CALOMEL
Thousands Experience Bad After Ef-
 fects From This Dangerous Drug-
A Safe Vegetable Substitute is Dr.. Edwards Olive Tablets for the Liver

Dr. r. Nj. Edwards, a prominent phy- sician of Ohio, has discovered a laxa- tive and liver toner in combination of vegetable material mixed with olive oil, which is in effect almost exactly like calomel, except that there are none of the bad after effects.
 Dr. Edwards has long been foe of calomel though he recognized it's value along with it's dangers
 His distrust of the uncertain drug eventually started him years ago, towards experiment with the view of discovering a substitute, and he has been for several years in possession of the long sought for combination, which is in the shape of little sugar coated, olive -colored. tablet.
 Inc results of r years eXpelience and practice are embodied in these marvellous little tablets.
 They are called pr. Edwards Olive Tablets. And their effect on the liver has been the means of relief to many of Dr. Edwards regular patients US well S to thousands of others who have suffered and were afraid of cal tnlel.
 There is no necessity, when you take Er. Edwards Olive Tablets, by follow ing them up with nasty sickening, gripine salts, or castor oil, as you do alter taking calomel. Try them. 10c and 25c per box. The Olive Tablet Company, Columbus, o.

ANAEMIc SINCE CHILDHOOD

 Health.

If you are anaenic. you need more iron in your blood and the tell symptoms are a pale face-colorless lips. ashen finger nails, poor circula tion and short breath, and more serious diseases are easily contracted when in this condition

I do not suffer any more from insomnia, nor do I have distress ing headaches as formerly and I am stronger than I have been for yearS

GARMENT WORKERS WAGES.
Manufacturers Issue Statement-Show
 Rangs from $a to $22 Per Week.

Upon the present strike situation among the garment workers of ths city, affecting from 80 to 90 workers, the manufacturers issued the following statement on Thursday:
 Tt was our intention not to pay any attention to the actions and nonsensi- cal talk of the sO-called New Garment Workers union of this city, as we fail to see the reason of their queer actions, and we are sure most of them do not know themselves any reason. They were only mis1ed by a few who gre looking for the opportunity of making trouble as long as it benefits them. However, seeing that their false stories are making somewhat of an impression on some of the public who dc not know the situation. and they even dare to announce through the To- cal papers, that their pay was 8 week we therefore, find it necessary to justify ourselves before the public. We here give a payroll of 8 few of our operators for the four weeks of the month of August as am example. You will note that the month of August was quite warm, and they did not work as steadily on account of the hot weather, and. besides, We never work ed more than 5 hours a week. As a result most of the operators of the Norwich Overall and Shirt company came back to work on the same con ditiOnS as before, as we never did make any changes in the prices of the piece or week workers.
 There are only a few vacancies in the Norwich Overall and Shrit com pany, and these will be filled very soon. The Ideal Pants company, Inc, are filling their vacancies quickly, and also the Eastern Pants company. The Blue Star Overall company is arranging to have tTle plant run, which, doubt, will be in operation shortly. The Connecticut Pants company is sure to fill it's vacancies as soon as ready to open up.
 Average pay of some of the em- ployes now on strike has been as fol- lows with the several shops:

MRS. EATON IS FOUND NOT GUILTY Verdict Rendered 510 Yesterday Morning Wo
 man Smiles and Pays High Compliments to Her Lawyers Many Persons Remained Up All Night Hear the Ver- dict-Jurors Ask Privilege of Meeting the Widow.

f child, both of whom need me. It means so much to them I shall go home probably late today and l hope that 8 new life will be opened to me and that the trials and tribulattons which have been mine in the past are ended. :"
 Verdict Was Expected. Her chief counsel, Mir. Morse, said:
 Tt was Mrs. Eaton's appearance on the stand an unusual event in any capital case and a remarkable one where a woman was on trial for her life, which decided the defendants in- nocence in the minds of the iurorS The verdict was what we expected. 1t frees an innocent woman but leaves as a mystery the end of the admiral, her husband. For six months | have tried to find out what was behind the poison which caused his death, but my Investigations have developed no satisfactory explanation. It must probably remain a mystery"
 Rendering the Verdict.
 At 5.07 the court came in Mrs Eaton entered the courtroom, looking 8 little tired. The air was chilly and she wore a heavy coat. She sat down and clasped her hands and as the jurymen filed into the room she folded her arms. The jury came in at 509 A moment later the roll was called. The defendant was ordered to look at the foreman, James A. Thomas of Middleboro.
 Have you agreed upon a verdict ?' came the question.
 We have,'' replied the foreman.
 What is your Verdict%'
 Not guilty"
 A smile lighted up Mrs. Eatons face and she leaned over and patted her counsel on the shoulders. The court S caution of secrecy was imposed on the jurors and they were discharged. Preferred Electric Chair to Insane
 Hospital.
 District Attorney Albert $. Barker, who retired early last night did not come into court to hear the verdict. His assistant, Frederick G. Ka6zmann. was present.
 Mrs. Eaton, during her seven months confinement in the Plymouth county jail here. has said repeatedly that she would rather go to the electric chair than to an insane asylum. Through out the trial her counsel insisted that her mind was sound, while the district attorney frequently suggested that she might be insane.

Plymouth, Mass, Oct. 30.-'@Not gull ty'' was the verdict returned by the jury today in the case of Mrs. Jennie May Eaton, charged with the murder of her husband, Rear Admiral Joseph Giles Eaton. at their home at Assinippi last March. The jury reported att ~5.1O a. nl., after considering the evidence for eight hours and three-quarters.
 Praises Her Lawyers.
 Mrs Eaton smilod joyfully as she heard the verdict. The moment the formal proceedings were ended she put her hands on the shoulders of her at tsjrneys, William A Morse and Fran CTS. ]. Geogan, and exclaimed:
 These are the greatest lawyers in Massachusetts
 Mrs Eaton sat in a private room at the courthouse until two o'clock this morning. Then she was permitted to go to the judges lobby where she slept on a couch until awakened at 4.30 and summoned to the courtroom.
 Judge Cautions Jurors.
 After the foreman had announced the verdict Chief Justice Aiken warned the jurors to keep secret the proceed ings in the jury room and to say noth- ing about the various steps by which the verdict had been reached. From the length of their deliberations it was thought the jurors were pretty evenly divided during the greater part of the night and in view of the courts careful explanation in Ris charge of the manner in which the defendants s mental state might enter into the case, many of the spectators believed that some of he jurors for a time might have favored, a verdict of not guilty by reason of insanity
 Nearly two hundred persons, some of whom had remained all night. were present in the courtroom to hear the verdict. Among them were a few wo- men.
 Her First Flow of Tears.
 After Mrs. Eaton had left the court room the jurors through their foreman asked that they might be allowed to meet her. The permission was grant ed and they formed a semi circle in the corridor. Mrs. Eaton came out from the judges lobby and thanked them individually As she did so she burst into tears for the first time since her trial started
 4 little later Mrs. Eaton gave out the following statement:
 T am so glad; glad most of all be- cause of my aged mother and my lame
