spective advances Of rs and 5-s per

Eleven Year Old Boy Tells of Al.
 leged Indecent Assault .

Frank Dutton, IS, of 277 Hart ford avenue, was bound over to the December term of superior court in bonds of $500 by Judge James T. MeskilI in police court this morning on a charge of indecent assault upon eleven years old Sidney Allison, son of Morris Allison of 169 Hartford avenue.
 Case of Serious One.
 Should the state be able to prove it's allegations against young Dutton when he is tried next month the case will go down in the annals of the courts as one of the most vulgar and revolting of it's kind evere brought Lawyer P. F. McDcn6ugh has been retained by Dutton and he offered no evidence this morning, preferring to take his chances in the higher court.
 Tells of Assault.
 . The story told by young Allison savers of truthfulness. He told the court that on Sunday night, October 3, he met Dutton in Kolodney's Hartford avenue store and the latter invited him to go home with him to keep him company. Arriving. at 1 the house, Dutton played the piano while and then invited the boy into bedroom where the unnatural prac- tices are alleged to have taken place Allison said that Dutton threatened to lock him up in a dark closet all night if he cried or told. Upon going home the boys par ents noticed his flushed and nervous condition and he confessed to them what had happened. This was short

A Great Kidney Remedy According to Thousands
 of Reports

My wife has been suffering with kidney and bladder trouble in a had form since she was nine years of age. She was in such a condition that she was confined to her bed and several doctors here treated her but to no effect.

At the time she was sick she suffered greatly and it looked as if she would die, but thanks to your valuable remedy, she is now a new woman. can recommend Dr. Kilmer's swamp Root as the best kidney and bladder remedy on earth and if you deside you may publish this letter in the hope that it may enable other suf- fers to get relief.

Since VAR BEGAN

Arthur Larimer of the Y. NJ. C. A.
has received letter from Waldo H.
Heinrichs, former fellowship seere-
tary at the local association. Helm
richs is now connected with the Y. M.
G. A. in Madras, India, and has been
active in the campaign for new mem
bers. He states in his letter that the
poor OF India have been neglected
since the opening of the war, as the
most of the contributions have been
sent to the front a- :.
Heinrichs also states that the sani-
tary conditions in Madras are poor,
but that the Y. NJ G. A. is doing a
great work in that section. Heinrichs
was the head of the campaign for 300
new members for the association at
Madras, and at the completion of the
canvass 1913 members were secured.
He sends his "aloha" to friends in Ho-
nolulu.
