The manufacturers will also ask that the provisions of the present law be re- moved that forbid full grown girls and boys weighing 135 to 145 pounds from operating machinery of which they were skilled operatives previous to the passage of section one, chapter 123 of the general statutes.

activity here. People cannot live in the streets, so there seems to be onlY one solution of the problem-build new homes, and build them at once. There are several instances in town at the present time of millmen holding good positions and being obliged to live in the hotels or in private families be- cause they cannot rent homes.
 It is possible that this persistent demand for more homes may lead 10 the Business Mems association giving consideration to the matter. The pros pect for builder. in any event, seems to be excellent for getting a substan tial return on an investment in houses costing on an average $1.500 to $2,00G each.
 4 suggestion heard Wednesday was for the formation of cooperative building bank as a. solution of the more buildings needed problem. The objects of such banks, which have been very successful in Massachusetts, saf2 to give the mem bers a regular, safe and profitable investment for their savings and to help them in acquiring homes.

for Men, Women and
Ten Reasons Why
You Should Send for Brooks
 Rupture Appliance

1. It is absolutely the only ApplJr ance of the kind on the market today, and in 1t are embodied the principles that inventors" have sought after for years.
 2. The Appliance for retaining the rupture cannot be thrown out of posi- ton.
 3. Being an air cushion of soft rub Der it c1fngs closely 10 the body. yet never blfSters or causes irritation.
 i. Unlike the ordinary sO-caIIed pads used in other trusses il is not cumbersome or ungaiuly.
 ,. It is small soft and pliabie, and positively cannot be detected through the clothing.
 g. The soft, pIiable bands holdinT the Appliance do not give one the uR- plea sant sensation of wearing haE- ness.
 '. There is nothing about it to got foul and when it becomes SOiIed 1t can be washed without inJuring 1t in the least.
 s. There are no metal springs in the Appliance to torture one by cut tng and bruising the flesh
 g. All of the mat eriaI or which the Appliances are made is Of the very best that money can buy. mak king it a durable and safe Appliance 10 wear
 10. My reputation for honesty and fair dealing is so thoroughly estab- lished by an experience of over thirty years of dealing with the public, and my prices are so reasonable. my terms so fair. that there certainly should be no hesitancy in sending free coupoa today.

 Dear Sir
 Perhaps it will interest you to know that have been ruptured six years and have always had trouble with it till l got your Appliance. It is very easy to wear, fits neat and snug, and not in e..e way al any time. day or night. In fact, at times I did not know had it on, 1t just adapted itself to the shape of the body and seemed to be part of the body, as 1t c1ung to the spot, no matter what position I was in. It would be veritable God-send to the unfortunate who suffer from rup- ture if all could procure the Brooks Rupture Appliance and wear it. They would certainly never regret 1t.
 My rupture is now all healed up and nothing ever did 1t but your Appliance. Whenever the opportunity presents it. self I will say q good word for your Appliance and also the honorable way in which you deal with ruptured peo- pie. It is pleasure to recommend a good thing among your friends or strangers. I am,
 Yours very sincerely,
