food, or have feeling Of dizziness,
heartburn, fullness, nausea, bad taste
in mouth and stomach headache, you
can get blessed relief in five minutes.
Ask your pharmacist to show you
the formula, plainly printed on these

then you will understand why dys-
peptic troubles of all kinds must go,
and why they relieve sour, out-of-or-
der stomachs or indigestion in five

food you eat; besides, it makes you
go to the table with a healthy aDpe-
tite; but, what will please you most,
is that you will feel that your stom-
ach and intestines are clean and
fresh, and you will not need to resort
to laXatives or liver pills for bilious
ness or constipation.
This city will have many "Pape's
Diapepsin" cranks, as some people
will call them, but yo, will be enthu-
siastic about this splendid stomach
preparation, too, if you ever take it
sOurness, dysp epsia, or any stomach
misery.
Get some now, this minute. and rid
yourself OF stomach trouble and in
digestion in five minutes..--Adv.

resignations, it was said after Fri days meeting, and also that more new corporators may be elected, probably five, this bringing the number of new ones up to Is, as suggested by the bank commissioners. It Is possible that additional corporators may be elected at the meeting of August 17. but this was one of the things that remained uncertain after Fridays meeting.
 It was learned that when the meet ing was called to order Friday, some changes had occurred in the alignment of the groups of corporators as they have stood recently and that there were some assertions of importance from the group that has not looked fla vorably upon the plan to increase the list of corporators.
 Delay Opposed.
 At the opening of the meeting. one present stated, motion was made that the meeting proceed to elect new corporators When the motion was put there were about half a dozen affirmative voices heard and none in opposition, some of the corporators refraining from voting. Previously, it is understood, a suggestion had hcen made, but not in the meeting nor to all the corporators, that action be postponed for another month, but this was rejected by an officer of the bank on the lIe OcpOSAlOIS MCAN clamoring for action that would bring about the reopening of the bank
 Blanket Ballot Used. A blanket ballot on which 15 names were printed was used in the balloting for the new corporators. On the first ballot nine selections were made an5 on the second ballot a tenth new cor porator was elected. Of the ten new men the names of nine were suggested in the list furnished by the bank commissioners.
 Encouraging Outlook. Those of the corporators who have 1 favored increasing their own number were well pleased with the action taken at the meeting Some of them were really elated, for they take the action as an indication of willingness | to comply with the suggestions Of t.ie bank commissioners and that follow 1 ing this course will result in the early resumption of business by the bank. They regard the action as encouraging ] for the depositors and all concerned | If the new corporators all qualiS y as it is sincerely hoped they will. the bank, they feel, will soon be in a po- sition to emerge from its difficulties

FOR COLLEGE DoRMIToRY
Mrs. Rienzi Robinson Head of Commit
 tee in KiIIingIy.

Mrs. Marinda c. Butler Robinson has been selected as chairman of a committee for KilIingly that will lend itself to aiding the plan of Dr. F. w. Sykes, president of the Connecticut College for Women to be established at New London of raising a fund +or the building of a dormitory to 1e known as Windham dornitory. A plan is to appeal to all women of the coun- ty to contribute one dollar each toward the erection of the building, and as much more as they find it convenient to give.
 Dr. Sykes is to be the guest here of Dr. and Mrs. Robinson early in Sep tember, and at that time the people of Danielson and vicinity will have an opportunity to hear him speak of his stltution that doubtless will eventually take a high rank among the womens colleges of the country.
 There is a very friendly feeling tow ard the movement to arouse interest in the college in this section of the state which will undoubtedly send many stu dents to it, and 1t is hoped that gen. erous contributions will be received from Windham county. Mrs. Robinson will mittee that will take up the work in this town.

WORMS AT BALLoUvuLE.
Found in John Perry's OatfieId-Pre- cautions at Scott PIace-BuIIetins on the Pest.

It was learned Friday that the army worms have appeared on the farm of John Perry, near Ballouville, so Xiii Hngly can no longer hope to escape from the ravages of the pest. As the Perry farm is not far from the Put nam line, that nearby town may also count itself as almost certain to be visited. The worms on the Perry farm are in an oatfeld. Farmers hereabouts continue taking precautions to pro- tect their crops from destruction by the pest. Frank Scott, whose home is on Broad street, has plowed a triple furrow around his oatfelds and has cut the oats back several feet all around the borders of his fields.
