"Pekin diplomacy is not enamored

Obituary
EIIFN IEDNAPn

Miss Ellen Leonard, aunt of Rev. H.. A. BesdIe, died at the Congregational parsonage in Ponfret, February 2Sd, of pneumonia, after brief illness. AL though Miss Leonard had been with the Pomfret people but little over q year, she had by her beautiful ehris- tian character, and sweet, sympathet- ic, womanly personality .endeared her self to all who became acquainted with her. Always with modest de- meanor she yet spoke the encouraging and aelpful word, and at each trifiing courtesy extended her, the ready .I thank you" sprang to lips whick spoke only good of all, and in many silent ways gave evidence of always and at all times exalting her Master. Her sweet presence will be greatly missed and her going has caused shade of deep saGness over the church to which she lent her presence whenever possi- ble, and of which she was so fond. On her devoted nephew, Rev. Mir. Beadle, the blow will fall with double force, she having stood in the twofold place of aunt and mother. The church and community at large extend to him their deepest sympathy.

 State Farm Probable

Judge E. M. Warner of this city who has been an able, earnest and en. thusiastic worker for the establish. ment of a state farm for dFunkards, was delighted Wednesday over the fine hearing held at Hartford Tuesday in relation to the establishmentof such an institution. There was no opposi- tion before the committee of the legis- lature that has the various bills on the subject under consideration, but there was as strongly representative gathering present in favor of one or more of the bills as is ever seen at the state capitol to lend aid in furthering the passage of pending legislation. Judge Warner characterized the re- marks before the committee as the best and strongest set speeches he has lis tened to in a long time.
 Judge Warner appeared as the rep resentative of the state Christian En. deavor association and of the Prison association. He is in favor of the bill that has the backing of the probate judges, police, city court and town court judges in Connecticut and many of the lawyers of the state.
 Indications seem to be that some one of the hills introduced will be passed by the present legislature and that the state farm so long, so ably and earnest ly advocated by Judge Warmer will become reality.
 Judge Warner points out that no at- tempt at the reform of drunkards is now made in the jails of Connecticut, where the drunkards are almost inva- riably sent after an appearance in court. He believes that they should be segregated, and allowed the fullest opportunity of environment and occu- patton as aids to becoming valuable citizens through the permanent shak ing of of the drink habit. He is cont dent that state farm such as is advo- cated would be certain source for such reformation. Committed to such farm for terms that might be as lengthy as five years, given an oppor tunity to do healthful work in the open air, given comfortable clothing and shelter and body building food, he feels confident that the majority of the ,000 (estimated) habitual drunkards now in Connecticut could be made in. to good citizens, as most of them would be if they stopped drinking liquor permanently.
 Under parole those committed to the state farm talked of would have an op. portunity to make good outside of the institution as soon as their record oi good behavior warranted, but if they broke their parole, they could imme- ,diately be recalled to the farm.

HOW AN INDIANA GIRL
Got Strong and Well Again at
 Small Cost.

Miss Alta Abel. of West Baden, Ind. says: T was complete wreck, al ways tired, wornout and nervous. I had 10 spend about one-third of my time in bed and my life was not worth living. vinol, your delicious cod liver and iron tonic, was recommended, and it has done me more good than all the medicine I ever took in my life That nervous and tired feeling Is all gone. I have gained in health, flesh and strength, until I feel like another per son"
 Vinol Is the most efficient strength creator for such women. It is the medicinal clements of the cods' livers contained in Vinol, aided by the blood making and strengthening properties of tonic iron, which makes 1t so far superior to all other tonics to build up health and strength for weak, tired. ailing women. It contains no oil and has delicious taste
 We give back your money if Vinol does not do all that we claim.
