Mayor Mitchell was Called to the
stand at $40 o'clock. He said:
I'm my judgment two Commissions
are desirable and necessary. I
don't think upstate Commissioners
would be able to deal adequately with
city problems. nor would Commission
ers from this section be best to wrestle
with upstate affairs. 4,
II shbuld prefer to see a Commis-
sion OF five to deal with the local situ-
alton.
: There should be a similar COM
mission up State.
AS to one Commissioner at large,
I'm not prepared to answer.
''The law seems to me to be in
adequate; it's O question Of admin
istration. 1t did not seem to me that
the administration was effective.
Concerning the separation Of the
work done under the Rrapid Transit
Act from the regulation work. I'd not
like to see such a separation effected
now. with all the work under way.
II believe that when we get a new
charter would be the time to make
such a tEansfer--say on June /, 1918.

COLONIAL THEATRE.
Clara KinnbaII Young in Worlds Film
 Hearts in Exile, Five Reels.

Clara Kimball Young has outdone herself in the mammoth World film feature at the Colonial theatre today entitled Hearts in Exile, in which she is starred. The story tells of Hope Iyancva, the daughter of a Russian patriot who died while serving term of imprisonment for promulgating doc trines of humanity and political free dom, and how she has devoted her life to carrying on the work amongst the poorer classes. She is girl of high mora! character, steadfast in her prin- nation. Her hand is sought in mar riage by two men. One, Paul Pavlow, B poor student, and the other Serge Palma, scion of wealthy Russian aristocracy. Hope accepts the latter fin order that her charitable work may not oe Fampered by lack of money. The chief of police, cruel. relentless and lascivious, has met Hope and deter mines to possess her, and to this end has bac her husband sentenced to 15 years in Siberia and his friend to five years in East Russia on false charges. Hope, however, is proof against all his advances and makes a long journey to Siberia to join her husband in exile. After many months of travel, during she arrives, not to find her husband, but her lover, who in a spirit of won derful selfsacrifice. actuated by his high-sou1ed love for Hope and deep friendship for Serge, has exchanged sentences.
 The end of the story is replete with thrills and heart throbs and in the role of Hope Ivanova, Clara Kimball Young has a part in which her strong pow CTS of characterization are demon strated and to which she gives a re- marEsble and powerful interpretation.

POPULAR LECTURE.

The Slater hall course of popular lectures has been arranged with the distinct purpose of making some con
 tsibution to the intellectual life of Norwich. Because of the greater hrHadtk and stimulus which a variety of subjects insures, the entire course has not been confined to purely literary addresses. It would be difficult to of fer tiiree lectures devoted to literary s1bjectg which could be more ably presented than by such men as Pro-
 lessor Phelps. Alfred Moves and Pro- lessor Winchester. President Had- lcy.s audience will have the unusual privilege of observing authoritative opinion in the very act of formation, for the timehnesS of the subject, The Demand for Military Education, and the aIninence ofet1le speaker attach an unuscai degree of importance to the expressions of opinion of this distin- guiEkeG gentleman on so vital an issue, Ire broadening influences of travel have already been represented in MT. .Worcester's interesting lecture on the Philippines.

HERE'S NEW VIGOR FOR
 OVERWORKED STOMACHS

Lee &. osgood. the popular druggists. have been in the drug business long enough to have their own opinion Of the best way Of selling medicines. They say the plan adopted by Mi-o-nas the great dyspepsia remedy. Is the falrest they have ever heard Of. They don't believos that a medicine ought to be paid for unless it does the user some rood. And Mi-o-na is sold under a positive guarantee to relieve dyspepsia or to refund the money: You simply leavo 50 cents on deposit with Lee & OsEooo, and If, after you have used the box of Mi-o-na, you decide that it has done you no good. all you have to do Is to tell them so and they will return your money.
 Hundreds of people have been re- lieved of stomach agonies by using this remarkable remedy. It is not simply a food digester; 1t is a medt- cine that puts all of the digestive or gans Into normal condition and lives iuddy glowing, vigorous health. A change for the better will be seen af- ter tha first few doses Of Mi-onas and it's continued use will soon give the power to eat any thing at any time! and not suffer distress afterward. 4
 Mi-,,-na is sold under positive guarantee to refund the money If 1t does not cure. This is the strongest proof that can be offered as to the merit of the medicine.
