1S POUNDS OF BLOOD

Is the average quantity in a healthy adult, but it is the quality of the blood that determines our strength to resist sickness. With weak blood we find cold hands and chilly feet; in children an aversion to study, and in adults rheumatic tendencies.
 In changing seasons get abundant fresh air and take spoonful of Scott's Emulsion after meals, because Scott's Emulsion is rich blood-food that will increase both quantity and quality of the blood while it warns the body and helps carry of the impurities.
 When multitudes of people are to- day taking Scott's Emulsion to avert winter sickness, and are giving it to their children, it is careless to neglect its benefits. Look out for substitutes.

 nesses stated that it was a case of cirrhosis of the liver in a preliminary state, the line of defense at the form CT trial, that if suchsa a condition as outlined by the plaintiff existed ever, 1t would have resulted either in heal ing due to natural processes, or would have proceeded to bring about condi- lions which would exhibit more mark ed symptoms of pieurisy, abscess. and what-not than were found. In addition, George A. Nye, Joseph 1 Belalr, Eugene Paquette. Joseph Pot win, Fred Chapman, Fred Larue and William J.

 The Messrs. Grimshaw, the two new ly appointed patrolmen. are regarded as two highly efficient men for the places to which they have been ap- pointed. They are not novices at the work which they will take up, botl having seen much service and piping times as constables within the town of Killingly. Both are physically im- pressive and compelling and are abso- lutely fearless, mention not being made of this so much to suggest ap- prehension on the part of anyone as to write into the record a testimonial to their ability to take care of thoroughly well the positions to which they have been assigned.

County Agent Calls Attention to Ma
 tional Potato Day Today-Farmers' Institute and Dairymen's Field Day.

There is quite a large amount of corn still out in the fields. This should be under cover. writes the county agent. The influence of the weather will not only injure the corn itself, but will make the fodder poor and un- palatable. A considerable quantity of its food value will be washed out by rains at this time of the year. Farm CTS who have not silo should get their corn stover under shelter as soon after cutting as it can be cured. Prop erly cared for. corn stover makes ex- ceilent roughage. Try getting 1t in early and sec how much more the cattle will relish it.

 Unnecessary Flashing of Police Lights.
 Phoughtless persons who desire to talk with the police are causing mem bers of the department much trouble by asking the operators for the num- Der that flashes on the police signal lights on the streets. Every time these lights are flashed on it means a trip to each light by an officer that they may be eNtinsuished. something like two miles of hiking each time the lights are flashed on. The police lights are intended more for emergency calls for the police than for any other req son, for service calls. Persons who wish merely to converse with some one at police headquarters should look up the listing under City Prison 1T, the telephone directory. Nowadays the po- lice signal system flashes. a number of times each day and almost invari- ably for a trif1ing matter. Much of ing the daytime is occupied in chas- ing from one end of the city to the other to shut off the lights.
