CONCERT UNDER NORWICH
 COLLEGE CLUB AUSPICES
Given by Brown University Musical CIubs-Followed by Dance at Nor wich Club

There was a good attendance at Slater hall on Friday evening for the concert by the Brown University Mu- sical clubs, which came here under the auspices of the Norwich College club. The sixteen members of the Glee club under Harold L. Myers, '15, leader ship, provoked much laughter and ap- plause with their various songs, both grave and gay. There were several, in cluding many encore numbers, by a quartette from the glee club, and also a solo and encore by MT. Myers.
 The Mandolin club of ten members were also generously applauded for their selections and, like all the others, added to the programme several extra numbers. The two clubs joined in the fine Brown university songs and one could easily find the Brown university graduates among the audience as the Alma Mater was given.
 A most enjoyable part of the enter tainment was the contribution of Ralph B. Graham, '15, who gave quite a mum Der of clever tricks in magic and later a good exhibition of ventriloQuism.
 The College club committee in charge of the arrangements for the concert were Misses Mary Gibbs, Marion Pull len and Faith Bonfoey. The ushers were chosen from the girls who are planning to enter the Women's college in New London and were Misses Maria T. Gallup, Kitty Sloan, Sadie Colt Ruth Avery, 1rma Hutzler, Clementina Jordan. Susan Wilcox and Rosa Will COX. The proceeds of the concert will go toward the scholarship fund being raised by the club.
 After the concert, subscription dance at the Norwich club compli- mentary to the Brown college boys attracted many of the young people.

FOR WEAK, SOUR,
 GASSY STOMACHS

It's torture to sit down to a well filled dinner table and know that to eat what you want means misery afterwards. Eat ever so little of the forbidden foods and you have to take soda hints, pepsin pills or other artificial digestants to stop the bIoating, heart burn, soeIrness, gas and stomach lump that always follows. But the more of them you take the more you must and soon the pills become a Dart of your reg ular diet. You think you can not eat without them, but you can.
 There is an old time stomach pre- scription called Mi-o-na Stomach Tablets that acts directly on the stomach itself and not on the food. One or two Mi-o-na tablets after each meal not only prevents all stomach distress but stimulates healthy natural flow of digestive juices, strengthens the muscular walls and makes the stomach strong enough to do it's own work and that's the only way to stop indi- gestion. Lee & Osgood and other dealers sell Mi-o-na on a guaran- tee of quick relief or money back. Get @ package of Mi-o-na, keep it handy and watch your stomach ills get out for good.

Fish Die When Drawn From Depths.
 In the great depths of the ocean the temperature is little above freezing, no matter what it may be at the sur face. When the dragnets which are used in the work are brought to the surface containing specimens of anil mals and fish inhabicing the deep, most of the creatures are dead. In fact, all those from the, deeper points are killed by removing them from wa ters of great hydrostatic pressure to continuously decreasing pressures.
