 Beauty But Health
And the Basis of Her Health and vigor Lies in the Careful Regu-
 Iation of the Bowels.

If woman's beauty depended upon cosmetics, every woman would be a picture of Ioveliness. But beauty lies deeper than that. It lies in health. In the majority of cases the basis of health, and the cause of sickness can be traced to the action of the bowels.
 The headaches, the lassitude, the sal low skin and the lusterless eyes are usually due to constipation. So many things that women do habitually con- duce to this trouble. They do not eat carefully, they eat indigestible foods because the foods are served daintily and they do not exercise enough But whatever the particular ause may be 1t Is important that the condition should be corrected.
 An ideal remedy for women, and one especially suitE q to their delicate requirements, is pr. CaldwelFs Syrup Pepsin, which thousands of women endorse highly, among them, Mrs. C.. 5. Vance, of 511 s. Ray St, New Cas- tie, Pa. At times she had spells of indigestion so severe that she thought she would die. Syrup Pepsin reguIat- ed her stomach and bowels, and she attributes her excellent health to this remedy.
 All the family can use Dr. CaId- wells Syrup Pepsin, for thousands of mothers give it to babies and chil- dren- It is also admirably suited to the requirements of elderly people in fact to all who by reason of age or infirmity cannot stand harsh salts. cathartlcs, pills or purgatives These should always be avoided, for at best tnelr effort is only for that day, while

Bridge Engineers Fail to Find Hard Pan Thames at Suit able Depth For New Bridge-New Haven Road En- eineers Facing Big Problem-May Change Location Proposed.
1ucn1nnnnnnun

It is stated that the New Haven road has already expended about S60,0oo in its test borings of the bottom or the Thames river which are being car ried on by the T. A. Scott Co, and that up to the present time no bot tom suitable for the piers of the pro- posed new railroad bridge has been se- cured It Is said that the location which had been picked out for the structure which will span the Thames will probably have to be abandoned, leaving the alternative of going far ther up the river or else building the new bridge where the old one is-
 Whether the latter course would be possible, in view of the gift to the state by the railroad company of the present bridge for highway purposes is. of course, a question. The fact re- mains. however, according to reliable information. that the railroad com pany has run up against a decided snag in it's effort to find the proper place to put the bridge.
 It is said that at some points along the line of the proposed location it has been necessary to go down 200 feet before bottom of sufficient re- sistance could be obtained. It is evil dent from the thoroughneSS with which the preliminary investigation is being made that the company intends

SUES TO COMPEL
 KEEPING OF CONTRACT. W. E. Brown Wants to Buy Old Mys- tic Place He Lives On,

In a suit brought in the superior court papers having been filed with Clerk Parsons, Wilfred E. Brown of Stonington makes claim against John E. Hart, now of Elroy, Wis, who is trustee under the will of Elijah A. Morgan, late of Stonington, to compel the trustee to fulfill the terms of an agreement by which MT Brown has leased a piece of property in the vil- lage of Old Mystic. Since March, 1907, the plaintiff in this case has leased the property at tb>~dnnual rental of $180, and in the lease was 8 clause which gave the lesee, who Is the plaintiff. in this case, the first opportunity to purchase the premises at the same price and terms on which the sale would be made to any other person. Now it is claimed that on the 31st of January, this year. MT. Hart as trus- tee had an offer to sell the property to someone else and has arranged to do so, but he has declined to tell the plaintiff who this buyer is or to tell him what the terms of sale are, and also that the agent of MT Hart, who is Albert Denison of Stonington. has re- fused to accept the purchase price. MT. Brown affirms that he is still ready and willing to take the place, and he asks for a court decree for convey ance of the property, and he claims $2. 300 damages. Mir. Brown is now in possession of the premises.

to carry its announced policy of "safe- ty f1rst'' into it's engineering projects as well as the operation of trains and the care which is being exercised in the choice of bridge site is very gen orally commended by those familiar with it.
 That some new method of crossing the Thames must be secured within a comparatively brief period is admitted by officials of the road. While the present bridge may be safe for the slow passage of a single train, it is anti quated and an obstruction to speedy traffic
 Referring to the present financial condition of the road, an official of the company is quoted as saying that the Thames river bridge might in it's pres ent shape mean the loss of money through the necessity for slow running of trains but that the company could better stand that loss now than it could spending millions for a new bridge. Nevertheless the bridge must be built. according to President us tis, and the funds must be provided. A person familiar with railroad mat ters said Monday that he believed it would be necessary for the New Haven to spend from $S,000,000 to $9,000. 900 in and about New London in the near future.
