W0MEN'S STOMACH I RouBLES
The Great Woman's Medi- cine Often Just What
 Is Needed.

We are so used to thinking of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound as remedy exclusively for female ills that we are apt to overlook the fact that it is one of the best remedies for disorders of the stomach.
 For stomach trouble of women it i9 especially adapted, as it works In com plete harmony with the female organ ism, since it contains the extracts of tho best tonic roots and herbs. It tones up the digestive system, and increases the appetite and strength. Here is what one woman writes showing what this medicine does :-
 Newfeld, N. Y.-"I am so pleased to say can recommend Lydia E. Pink hams Vegetable Compound as an eco- nomical and beneficial remedy in most ailments pertaining to women. At least I found it so by only taking two bottles. I had indigestion in bad form and I am now feeling in the best of health and owe it all to Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. ''- Mrs. BURR WILLIAMS, R.D. No. .29, New field, NY.
 Many women suffer from that Gall gone feeling," and "feel so faint, '' while doing their work. Ten chances to one their digestive system is all out of order. A tablespoonful of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound after each meal should completely remedy this condition in few days.

by thoughtless parents. The doctor invariably gave permission but ad- vised against the plan resulting in many eases in the abandoning of the theater trip
 There have been parents who kept their children almost entirely at home, even going so far as to keep them away from other children that the efforts of the health officer to keep Plainville safe might bear fruit. At the same time their neighbors brought their youngsters to every conceivable gatherings in nearby towns and, re- turning endangered the safety of chil- dren whose parents were living up to the rules.
 The situation increased the health officers worries and for weeks he has been kept exceedingly busy He has displayed efficiency and sound judg- ment in his actions and if Plainville manages to escape any additional out breaks of the disease it will be a per- sonal victory for him.
 May Run Birdseye.
 Thomas B. Atwater of Southington. chairman of the district committee, is planning to send out to the delegates notice of the democratic convention which will be held in Plainv,lle, prob ably the latter part of next week. The session will name the candidate for st nator to run against Elijah Rogers of Southington, the republican nomi- nee
 Among leading democrats the sug- gestion that A. Birdseye of Farming ton be named is being given serious consideration. MT. Birdseye is not a candidate for the place, but it is gen. erally believed he can be persuade ed to make the run. He returned to the democratic party from the progress sives, and it is thought that he would receive the support of the Roosevelt followers.
 Ex-Mayor James Cray of Bristol, ! whose name has been mentioned in connection with the nomination, de- clareN that he is not a candidate. Mr. Cray would make an excellent show ] ing at the polls if nominated although his chances of election would be slim in view of the. overwhelming plural ity which the republicans h in the district.
 Consider Bill Monday. Commissioners appointed by the 1 probate court to view the claim of pr. J. G. Tanner against the estate of Frank s. Neal will meet Monday to consider the bill. The men who will serve are John B. Minor of this place, | Judge Scott of Terryville and Judge 1 Welch of Southington.
 Dr. Tanners bill is for $527, which | he claims is due for medical services 1 rendered during Mr. Meals last ill., ness. He will be represented at the bearing by Attorney Pierce, while the il terests of the estate will be looked after by Judge Kirkham of New Brit ain, representing the Pla1nvllle trust company. executors under the will.

 That the price of potatoes is liable t. be high this winter is the opinon of local farmers, who report that the crop of tubers in this section is likely to be very poor. A rainly spring and other unfavor- aLle conditions at the time of plant ing did considerable damage to the potato crop, and rot has been rppar- ent on many of the spuds already har- vested.

Republican Town Committee Holds Banquet and Maps Out Campaign Selectmen Have Last Meeting of Year-Leaves With Partners Money That the annexation of Kensington ] to New Britain, matter which has gems for the past ten years, may be- \ come a fact during the next year is the belief of many today as the result $of the action of the charter revision 8committee in New Britain last night Fin extending a virtual invitation to #Kensington to consider the matter & &Kensington is in need of just such ad- $vantages and improvements as New &Britain alone can offer and the pro- 8gressive citizens of the former place |have long recognized this fact. Two syeRss ago an attempt was made to bring it about, but New Britain didn't &rneet the proposition as it was hoped. Now, however, there is a change of sentiment and the present charter re- $vision committee is going to give the subiect some real consideration. It was pointed out last night that Ken 6ington needs water service and fire prot tection. The village is fast devel- Ripping along the lines of it's larger and more progressive neighbor to the north and it's interests lie with New Britain rather than with the more rural community of Warrington.

PaainViaAe News CERTIFICATES MUST
 BE GIVEN CHILDREN Doctors Testimony Required Of
 Pupils in High School
 ZABEL BOY IS RECOVERING

Only Children Who Have Been Here
 Ten Days Will Be Admitted to New
 Britain High School-Remove Quar-
 antine From Calor Home Soon.
 Certificates of health in addition to evidence that they have been in town for ten days and have not been ex- posed to infantile paralysis will be required of Plainville pupils m the New Britain High school before they will be admitted to their classroorns at the beginning of the fall term next week. The board of health of the Hardware City insists on compliance with these regulations and the sev- enty local children who will attend the High school will have to get doctors certificates.
 The regulations are considered peculiar here in view of the fact that the town has had but one case of the dread disease while eight children in New Britain have been afflicted with it. If Plainvil1e is to give New Britain assurance that it will not carry the disease to New Britain, local peopD believe the neighboring city should offer some guarantee that Plainville children will not become infected while at school.
 The situation as regards threat ened epidemic of infantile paralysis here is entirely satisfactory to Health Officer Bull. Rhinehardt Babel, the only youngster in Plainville to con- tract the malady, shows almost daily improvement. While the child, when first affected was completely paralyzed from his hips up, he appears to have regained the use of all his muscles and is gaining strength steadily. He is still confined to the bed but in few days it is thought he will be able to get about and the attending physicians are hopeful that he will have normal use of his limbs.
 While the state board of health has suggested that quarantine be kept for a period of six weeks, Dr. Bull be- Heves 1t will be possible to remove restrictions from the home of c. H. Calor, where the patient is confined within a few days. MT. and Mrs Calor were released from quarantine last week after all their clothing was thoroughly fumigated and they are now living with neighbors.
 Claims of incorrect diagnosis in the case have been made by a number of laymen and the theory has been of fered that instead of having infantile paralysis the Babel child suffered from a sunstroke. The doctors, however, report that all the symptoms of in fantile paralysis were noticed in him.
 That the town has not had more than a single case so far is undoubt- edly due in a large measure to the care exercised by the health officer who took every precaation to prevent it's spread.
 In his efforts pr. Bull had the CO., operation of many of the townspeople who made an effort to live up to the rules. Others, however, were not so considerate. Almost daily for weeks the health officer received numerous calls from people who wanted permis- sion to take their children out of town to the "novies," fairs and other assem mblages. 'DOctor, can't I take my Johnnie to the movies this after noon," was a query frequently made

MRS. GILLIGAN INDICTED
Proprietress of Home for Aged in Windsor Will Be Tried for Murder at December Term.

Hartford, Sept. 22.-Mrs. Amy E.. Archer-G Gilligan, charged with poison ing five inmates of the Archer Home for Elderly People at Windsor, was indicted for first degree murder on five counts by the grand jury late yes- terday.
 Benedict M. Holden, counsel for Mrs. Gilligan. announced he was not ready to proceed with the trial, and Judge M. S. Shumway ordered the case continued to the December term of the superior court. Mrs Gilligan pleaded not guilty, and was remanded to the county jail without bond
 The state alleged Mrs. Gilligan poisoned Mrs. Maude Lynch, of Lake vile, on February 21, 1916; Franklin R. Andrews, of Cheshire, May 30, 1914; Charles A. Smith, of Waterbury, April g. 1914; Michael W. Gilligan, second husband of the accused, Feb uary 20, 1914, and Mrs. Alice Gowdy, of Hartford December g. 1914
 Mrs. Gilligan was arrested last May for the murder of Andrews, whose body had been secretly exhumed. Since that time four other bodies have been exhumed and the state alleges evil dence of a powerful poison was found in each.
 Most of the inmates were admitted to the home, the state claims, after contracts had been signed providing for life care on payment of $1,000.

ATTITUDE OF NEWSPAPERS TO
FIGURE IN LORIMER TRIAL

''How do you stand with neWspa-
pers?" is the question put to venire-
men in the Lorimer bank wreck trial
It is clear that Lorimer's lawyers are
not going to let any man sit on the
jury who can be reached by the trust
press club.
Edward J. Weaver, the first juror
tentatively accepted, was asked by
Atty Albert Fink yesterday:
Have you observed that there ex-
lists between Senator Lorimer and at
least some of our metropolitan news
papers what might be called feud?"
The answer was yes" Then fol-
lowed:
Q.-Would the fact that a verdict
of not guilty might be unpopular with
certain newspapers affect you in any
way? A.-No.
Cts there any way the newspa-
pers could injure you in case you did
something they did not like? Al
don't think so.
Q.-Then you would see to it that
the defendant received square deal,
no matter what the newspapers or
anybody else would think about it?
Ayes. VI
Of the four tentatively accepted
Jurors, one is Sullivan Democrat, one
Harrison Democrat and another
plain Republican" Three are Ro-
man Catholics and one "a cross be-
tween a Methodist and Presbyter-
ian"
