Cascarets' Make
 You Feel Great
Gently cleanse your liver and sluggish bowels while
 you sleep.

Sick headache. biliousness, dizzi- ness, coated tongue, foul saste and foul breath-always trace them to torpid liver, decayed fernenting food in the bowels or sour. gassy, stomach
 Poisonous matter clogged in the in testines, instead of being cast out of the system is re-absorbed into the blood. When this poison reaches the delicate brain tissue it causes con- Eestien and that dull. -throbbing, sick eY1fng headache.
 Salts, cathartic pills, oil and purga- tive waters force passageway for day or two-yes-but they don't take the poisons out and have no effect upon the liver or stomach.
 Cascarets Immediately cleanse and regulate the stomach, remove the sour. undigested and fermenting food and foul gases. take the excess bile from the liver and carry out of the system all the constipated waste mat ter and poisons in the bowels
 A Cascarets tonight will surely straighten you out by morning. They work while you sleep-a 10-cent. box from your druggist means your head clear, stomach sweet and your liver and bowels clean and regular for months.

 Whereas.

 Resolved, That the Hartford Busi- ness Mems association urgently re- quest the highway commissioner to use every effort to complete the inn proved highway between Hartford and New London at the earliest pos sible date, and be it further
 Resolved. That the seer etary be instructed to forward a copy of these resolutions to the highway commits siener and to the New London Busi- ness Mems association
 The letter goes on to state that the public affairs committee has taken the matter up directly with the state highway commissioner and he has as sured it that it is his intention to con- meet the several links of this road, to make it an important trunk line at an early date, very material improve ments to be made this coming sum- mer. He also states that he has in storage in Glastonbury two stone crushers and two traction engnes which are soon to be placed at some suitable stone ledge along this route, so that stone can be crushed during the spring season for surfacing. At the present time he Is unable to state just when any portion of this route will be completed. That will be deter mined later.
