CRAFTS SHIN BONE
TO SPINAL COLUMN
Wilson Hancock Undergoes Delicate
Operation Today for Broken
Back

Wilson Hancock, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Peter w. Hancock, of No. 81
Fairview street, underwent a most del
icate operation today in Waterbury
hospital the outcome of which will be
awaited with interest by his many
friends.
The operation was an unusual one.
Almost two years ago young Hancock
was thrown out of an automobile in
New York state and fell across a
railroad track. The fall fractured one
of the vertebrae in his spinal column.
He was in hospital for long time
but finally recovered enough to re-
turn home. His condition improved
and a year ago he was engaged as the
pianist at Fox's theater. Once before
preparations were made for him to go
under the surgeons knife in an at
tempt to remedy his injury and pre-
vent growing deformity but it was
postponed.
Todays operation consisted of laying
bare the injured portion of the young
mans back bone. Then small piece
of bone was cut from his shine bone
and grated onto his spinal column in
place of the broken vertebrae. 1t will
be months before the young man re-
covers and his condition will be-
watched with interest by many medi-
cal men.

There are many worthy cases where illness or other causes has made it impossible for the head of the family to provide holiday dinner. If the proper au- thorities are notified these cases will be attended to. Of course Thanksgiv- ing dinners are not purchased with out money and that is where you can help. Don't forget the children;
 don't let it be said that any little boy or girl in New Britain went with out a big, steaming, succulent din- ner on Thanksgiving day while you were sitting down with your fine lin- en, silver, servants and the best the markets can afford. The finest dcs- sert you could furnish for your own dinner will be the knowledge that you have made someone else happy.

LESS DEMAND THIS
 YEAR FOR CHARITY
New Britain Is Now Riding on
 Crest Of Wave Of Prosperity

Prosperity is in the air, if one is the judge by the preparations being made by the New Britain Charity Or ganization to furnish Thanksgiving cheer to it's clientele. Inquiry at the office of the association today elicited the information that the demand for sid this Thanksgiving Is much less than last and that while financial as- sistance will be necessary, the outlay will not be as large as in 1914.
 Miss Elsie Osborne, agent of the Charity Organization, said this morn ing that she was making preparations to dispel the gloom in the homes of the deserving poor but she could not state just how many dinners would be sent out The organization is re- ceiving lists from the churches and will answer these appeals. The lists show that the needy cases this year are fewer than in the past.
 Nowhere in the city is there a bet ter barometer of labor and financial conditions than the Charity .organiza- ton. In times of financial distress the organization is stormed by ap- peals for assistance. The fact that g. great many people are able to pro- Vl06 CnelT OWH IldIhSSiNlIlS oAllllCi D this year shows New Britain to be er:joying 8 wave of unusual pros perity.
 At the Hospital.
 The usual Thanksgiving observance will be held at the New Britain Gen eral hospital, offering charitably in- clined people an opportunity to exer- else their philanthropy. Donations will be gratefully received and those who wish to contribute may notify Mrs: Jennie l.. Bassett, the matron, or Mrs. George P. Hart, Mrs. George w. Corbin or Mrs. Robert S. Brown. This affords an excellent chance to those who wish to bring happiness

HEADACHE FROM
 A COLD LISTEN
'Pape's Cold Compound' ends se- were colds or grippe in
 few hours.

Your cold will break and all grippe misery end after taking a dose of Tapes Cold Compound' every two hours until three doses are taken.
 It promptly opens clogged-up nos- trils and air passages in the head, stops nasty discharge or nose run ming, relieves sick headache, dullness, feverishness, sore throat, sneezing, soreness and stiffness.
 Don't stay stuffed up! Quit blowing and snuffling! Ease your throbbing head-nothing else in the world gives such prompt relief as "Papes Cold Compound" which costs only 25 cents at any drug store. It acts without assistance, tastes nice, and causes r.o inconvenience. Accept no substitute.

Tells How VinoI Made Her
 Strong.
 New Britain women who are weak. rundown and suffer from the consr- quent effects of such a condition, will be interested in Mrs. odells letter. She says:
 ."I am a farmers wife and was all rundown, weak, tired, and suffered from indigestion, and sometimes it seemed as though I could not keep around and do my housework. I had taken many medicines without benefits One day saw Vinol advertised, and made up my mind to try it. I have taken four bottles and have gained seven pounds in weight, am much stronger, and feel many years young CT than before" Sarah Odell, Lock port, N. r.
 The reason Vinol builds I'D weak, rundown women so quickly is be- cause it contains a delicious combi- nation of the three most successful tonics, peptonate of iron to enrich and revitalize the blood, the strength creating, bodybuilding elements of fresh cods' livers without oil, and beef peptone.
 We want to say to every weak, rundown, overworked woman in New Britain that we will return your money if Vinol fails to help you as 1t did Mrs. Odell. -.
