so important In the use Of s. s. s. to
purify the blood, its action is a stimulant
to the myriad Of fine blood vessels that
make up the constructive tissues of the
Kidneys. All the blood from all over the
body must pass through the kidneys. They
act as testers and assayers. And according
to what they allow to pass out in the urine,
both as. to quantity and materials, tho
health of the kidneys and the quality Of the
blood is determined The catalytic energy
forced BY s. s. s. Is shown In the urine.
1t Is also demonstrated in the skin. And
as the blood continues to sweep through
the kidneys the dominating nature of
B. s. s., acting as it does through all the
avenues of elimination, shows a marked
decrease Of disease manifestations as DEM
onstrated by urine analysis. This assist
ance Is great relief to the kidneys The
body wastes are more evenly distributed to
the emunctories; their elimination Is stim-
ulated by the tonic action afforded the
liver. lungs, skin and kidneys. Thus, In
cases of rheumatism, cystitis, chronic sore

WILSON READY TO NAME COMM MIT:TEE ON NEW CHARTER
Men Active in Propaganda Will Not Have Place in
 Special Body.

If the voters today declare ln favor of the appointment of a committee to. draft commission form of govern ment charter, that committee will be appointed by Mayor Wilson no matter which ticket wins. At the meeting of the common council last night the al dermen voted to adjourn until Friday night when Mayor Wilson will name the committee.
 Off hand it is a fair guess that Nal colrn MacFayden, Republican leader of the couf1cil, will head that commis- sion. Alderman MacF'ayden was very much disappointed because he did, not receive the Republican nomination for mayor. He was annoyed because he was not appointed chairman of the commission to build the Stratford ave- nue bridge. Since then however, the Republican leaders have smoothed down the a1derman's ruffled hair and he is back in line again. The alder man has been told that if commission form Of government goes through he will be one of the commissioners
 The other members of the commit tee of five whom Mayor Wilson will name will be: Himself, Alderman Daniel E.. Walker, Alderman Mauritz Olson and Alderman Vincent S. Whit ney. Neither Frank w. BoIande nor any other man who has been active for commission form of government will get a place on the committed
 Only Alderman Cough1in was ab- sent from the meeting but not a single dissenting vote was registered against Alderman MacFayden's proposition. It is the first time in the history of the city that the common council on the eve of an election has adjourned to meet after election.
 The plan is that the mayor win name his committee and<theN council approve it before passing out because the new city officials will not take of- fee until next Monday.
 Attorney David s. Day appeared for the Bridgeport Brass Co, on the pubilc hearing for the extension of Grand street in connection with the building of the new Grand street bridge. He said his company was satisfied with the proposed layout of the bridge.

Asquith Says Germans Have Made No Gain

London, Nov. 2.-In his address be- fore the House of Commons this after noon, Premier Asquith stated that Field Marshal Sir John French, com mander of the British forces on the Franco-Belgian front, was now in command of nearly 1,O0O, 900 men.
 MT. Asquith said the total casualties in France and Flanders amounted to BIT 0OO. ~
 He asserted the Germans had not made a net gain of a foot of ground since April.
 Reviewing the work of British sub marines in the Turkish campaign, the premier said that in the Sea of Mar mora they had sunk or damaged two battleships, five gunboats, one torpedo boat, eight transports and 197 sup, ply ships.
 The premier asserted the financial situation of Great Britain was serious and that the nation must be prepared to make far greater sacrifices than it had yet done to enable it to sustain the burden imposed by the wal
 Mr. Asquith said there was full France to maintain the independence of Serbia, and not let it become the prey of the sinister and nefarious combination of Germany, Austria and Bulgaria.
 Premief Asquith said he strongly believed the recruiting plan of the Earl of Derby would succeed and that compulsion would be unnecessary.

QuILT TING PARTY STAGED IN COURT IN s2O,OOO SUIT
Mass of Quilts of All Sorts Introduced in Evidence
 Here.

Just before the party breaks up it is always the custom for the boys and girls to gather around the piano and warb1e ''It Was at Aunt Dinah's Quilting Party We Were Seeing Nellie @ Home" If court procedure had per mitted, Aunt Dinah could have staged a quilting party in the superior court this afternoon when the trial of a suit involving $2O,OOO worth of quilts was started before Judge william s. Case.
 The action was brought by the Cots wold Comfortable Go. of New York against Frank Cohen, manager of the New York Furniture Co. and Boston Furniture Supply Go. It is alleged that Cohen contracted for the quilts which were delivered to him as order ed. Later when payment was de- manded he refused ro pay. Cohen's contention is that the quilts were not satisfactory. He is being sued for $25,00O.
 Big bundles of quilts of all quail ties of thickness and softness were brought into the courtroom this af- ternoon so the court could inspect them and judge whether the goods were as represented. Some court 4aoues joker said the lawyers fell in pretty soft when they got into a suit with all those quilts. Perhaps Prof. Dan Guilty, the popular dancing mas ter, will be asked to give his opinion.

BANDIT BOSWORTH BEGAN CAREER AS CLERK IN BANK:
 PHELAN PROBES SHOOTING
CHILL DREN SAVED
 AS FIRE LEVELS
 ORPHAN ASYLUM
Attending Mass, They March Out of Danger in Or
 derly Manner.

Harrisburg. Pa, Nov. 2-Sylvan Heights Orphanage, the largest fnsti- tuition of it's kind in the Catholic dio- cese of Harrisburg, was destroyed by fire early today but it's 103 children, who were attending mass in the chapel when the flames were discov- cred, were marchd to safety.
 Defects in wiring are supposed to have caused the fire. Flames were discovered inside the wainscoting of a room in the north wing and in a few minutes the children were marched out under the direction of Sister Alo- ysius, the superioress. Father Rear don, who was conducting the mass, continued the ceremonial until all the children were out of the building.
 Most of the effects of the children were saved together with lconsi1ra- b1e furniture, as the wings where the fire started was used only for din ing rooms, study halls and class rooms.
 The orphanage was built prior to the Civil War as residence. It was converted into an orphanage by Bishop Shanahan in 1901.
