GYPSY MOTH NESTS
 FOUND NEAR WESTERLY
Government Entomologists Send for
 Help to Fight Pest.

The government gang of entomolo- g1StS, who have been working around Westerly in search of the gypsy moth and other insects have found the be- ginning of veritable pest hole" if that term can be used in connection with bugs that fly and bugs that crawl
 They had reported gypsy moths in two places in Pawcatuck, but now they announce that they have found at least four places which have the moth or will have it in time if something is not done. They are so fearful of the dam age that may be done that they have sent word to Washington asking that 20 men be immediately assigned to the section, that 1t may be covered thor oughly- From the outlook they fear that the moth has struck into the tim berland. If that is the case the situa- tion is very serious.
 In the past week they have found the gypsy moth at Dunn's Corners; to the east of White Rock at the juno tion of the Boom Bridge road and the White Rock road; at the Westerly pumping station: Varietyville. and on Marriott avenue, just off Pleasant street
 The experts believe that there is a big centre for the moths over in the timberland of North Stonington or in Stonington, and that they have been ly wind. They do not fly of their own accord.
 The brown tail moth has been found in only a couple of places. They are in Dunn's Corners and Varietyville. It is believed that the big swarms which came into the town last sum mer. alighting on the buildings, were all males, and that females were not brought into town in any great num- hers

PACKER MILL DAM
 STILL HOLDS FAST.
Is Bent Into Semi Circular Shape With
 Water Coming Through.

Up to late Wednesday evening the big dam at the Cutler cotton mill at the village of Packer was reported to be holding fast, although through the day the stone structure had assumed something of a semi-circular form. and it was understood that some stones had been dislodged and that water seemed to Oe working underneath the dam. The hashboards had been re- moved and it was believed this had been one of the means that had been effective to prevent a break through the day. It was the opinion in the village that the dam would hold unless there should be a further rising of the water, and this was not looked for. The ise in large masses is still behind the dam, which is from 50 to 75 feet in length.
 The threatening conditions have not yet driven the people from the dozen or so houses just below the dam, a1 though it is stated that there is a pos sibility that they might have water up into their second stories should the dam give way. The houses are structures about 100 yards old and only set on top of the ground so that it was predicted they would be swept off without doubt if the mill dam broke and sent mass of water and ice down on them. The second story of the houses along the stream is about on a level with the mill pond.

CASTOR OIL IS
 TASTELESS NOW A Remarkable Step Forward in Oil
 Refining.

Pure, clear castor oil, without taste or smell, is a recent discovery of the house of Spencer Kellogg & Sons, re- liners of vegetable oils.
 The Kellogg Mills take away the nauseating taste, but remove none of the good properties of castor oil
 As Kellogg's Tasteless Castor Oil fs merely a purified castor oil, it works better than tho evil-tasting, evil smelling dose of the past, and does not upset the stomach. Children take it easily.
 Kellogg's Tasteless Castor oil has been supplied to all druggists, not in bulk, but in neat 25c and soc bottles. It is necessary to ask for Kellogg's s by name, to distinguish it from dis guised castor oil, favored with pepper mint and other strong essences. The trademarked label bears green castor leaf, with the signature, KelIogg's

FiIipinos Need Good Food.

Experience has shown" said Dean C. Worcester, foITnerly secretary of the interior in the Philippines, when he addressed the Chicago Association of Commerce recently, that the Fili- pinos make good form and factory laborers if paid a living wage and well fed. Much if the laziness with which they have been so freely charged is demonstrably due to physical weak ness resulting from improper and in sufficient food. Careful consideration has been given by the government to the working out of diets made up from the food products of the country and inexpensive, which will remedy this difficulty"

VEIL OF SECRECY VET
 OVER COURT MARTIAL
But Four Reporters from New York
 Allowed at Fort Terry.

The fact that four reporters for New York newspapers were admitted to the government reservation at Fort Terry Wednesday has not served to lift the veil of secrecy surrounding the court martial of Major Benjamin NJ. koehler. Although granted the privilege of transportation on the government steameds and of landing at any of the island forts, the newspaper men are forbidden to attend the hearing. At the same time those connected with the court mtrtial in any way are in structed to refrain from repeating any thing that may be said at the trial. Accordingly any information which reaches the public must be gathered more or less from hearsay. The court resumed it's session Wednesday morn ing It is rumored that at least six other official investigations are under way as result of the koehler case.
 It was understood in New London Wednesday evening that the ban against cameras was to be removed and that the newspaper men would be allowed to use them on Thursday.

Proposed French Customs Stamp.

EFOPoSS0 SuSbOnnS
 An international stamp for customs duty on parcels sent through the mails has been proposed by the French Min istry of Finance, and has been accept ed by the postal department. Hitherto the government ha stolerated the send ing by post into France of certain dutiable articles, such as lace, be- cause the duty was really so small that it was supposed to be covered more or less by the postage. But since the duty on laces and similar fabrics has been considerably raised, the Ministry of Finance proposes a way of collecting it by creating a GUS toms stamp. The sender abroad will have to declare the value of the arti- cle enclosed in the mail, and affix the corresponding stamp. It is supposed that as the stamp will really be only slightly more than the ordinary post age, the senders will not hesitate to use it to escape the confiscation of the articles sent. The matter is to be proposed by the French authorities to the other members of the International Postal Union at the next annual con gress- London Telegraph.

NO PIE CRUST PROMISES

Wise advertisers never make "pie-cruSt promises"
 They know that to break faith with the public would be fatal worse than throwing their money away.
 That is one reason why ad- vertised goods are more in de- mand.
 People know that there is quality behind them.
 They look on them as stand ards. Any dealer knows that there are more calls for adver- tised goods than for goods not advertised.
 This is especially true if they happen to have been advertised in the newspapers which direct ly reach the people.
 The standard of advertising is more exacting today than ever before. Advertisers are more careful of their promises and more interesting in their text N and illustrations.
 The world grows better.
