FARMERS DYNAMITE DAM.
Oklahoma City Threatened With
 Water Famine, as Result.

Oklahoma City, June 12-Oklahoma City is facing two grave dangers in connection with it's waiter supply as a result of the destrudtion of its waterworks dam across the North Canadian river late last night by 20 men believed to be farmers whose land contiguous to the river was eatened with inundation. Should the flood waters recedes before re- pairs can be made, water short age is certain, according to Com missioner Donnelly. The other danger is that the river may form a new channel.
 Guards who had been placed at the dam in anticipation of an effort to cut it, were powerless to prevent the work of the men, who escaped before assistance could arrive from the city.

What to Do to Get Fat
 and Increase Weight
The Real Cause of Thinness.


 Mon. people eat from four to six ponn6s of good solid making 2ooo awerY day and still do not increase In W6igh< niRs ounce. while op the ;other MAnd mrnY Te bhe pl9xnp, chunky FOLKS :ss M lFeay, x, ana .s hssp se say gishht shat this m N She nature of the individual. It isn't ERtura'e Tny at all.
 Moa4 thin people stay thin because their pcwers of assinilation are de. teeiiys They ahsor5 just 5Inta;n en9Hgh fgs and oI a eennoiauce of health and strength GanYing won't help them. A dozen meals Q day won't make them gain a slngie 'stay there" pound. All the fat = producing clements of their food just pass from the body as waste What ' such people need is something that will prepare these fatty food elements So that their blood can absorb them ana deposit them all about the DoaEyNi tEyci-. rcd blood corpuscles and increase their hlooo's carrying power.
 For such a condition it is well 10 recommend eating a Sargol tablet with every meal. Sargol is not. as some, be- careful combination of six of the most effective and powerful assimilatiVe and flesh building elements known to chem istry. It is absolutely harmless, yeI has been wonderfully effective ana a single tablet eaten with each meal or the effect of increasing the weight oi a thin man or woman from three to nNe pounds a week. Sargol is sold by H NJ. Lerou's Drug Store, Norwich, Ches- bros Drug Store, Willimantfc, anC other good druggists everywhere or a positive guarantee of weight in crease or money back.

Not a Bite of
 Breakfast Until
 You Drink Water Says a glass of hot water and phosphate prevents illness
 and keeps us fit.

Just as coal, when it burns, leaves behind a certain amount of incom- bustible material in the form of ashes, so the food and drink taken day after day leaves in the alimentary canal certain amount of indigestible ma terial, which if not completely elimina- ted from the system each day, be- which infest the bowels. From this mass of leftover waste, toxins and ptomain-lil5e poisons are formed and sucked into the blood.
 Men and women who can't get feel ing right must begin to take inside baths. Before eating breakfast each morning drink a glass of real hot water with teaspoonful of lime stone phosphate in it to wash out of days accumulation of poisons and toxins and to keep the entire alimen- tary canal clean, pure and fresh.
 Those who are subject to sick head ache, colds, biliousness. constipation, others who wake up with bad taste, foul, breath, backache, rheumatic stiff ness, or have sour, gassy stomach pound of limestone phosphate from the drug store, and begin practicing internal sanitation. This will cost very little, but is sufficient to make anyone an enthusiast on the subject.
 Remember inside bathing is more important than outside bathing, be- cause the skin pores do not absorb health. while the bowel pores do. Just as soap and hot water cleanses, sweetens and freshens the skin, so hot water and limestone phosphate act on the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels.

WoMANs PARTY CONVENTION
To Be Held in chicago-caII Issued to
 Local Suffragi

A call to the Woman's Party Con- vention in Chicago, June 5, and :, was received Monday by the members of the Congressional Union For Wom- an SuffraSe. Putnam has a large who belong to the Congres- sional Union and who are deeply in- terested in the very active work be- ing done in Connecticut. The officers of the Congressional Union met in Washington April and representing thirty-siX unenfranchised states, ap- p<6led to the four million enfranchised women of the west, urging them to do all in their power to press for the inn mediate passage of the national suf- frage amendment.
 Putnam members are confident over the fact that one-fifth of the electoral vote and One-third of the vote neces- sary to elect the next president comes from the suffrage states, gives voting women such power in congress as to make certain the passage of the na- tional amendment if they unite in sup port. A call upon all fellow members in the suffrage states to assemble in Chicago to launch a woman's party which will work independently of all existing political organizations to se- cure the immediate passage of the national suffrage amendment.
 Very active work is being done by suffrag gists with a view to the placing of woman's suffrage plank in both the republican and the democratic plat forms at the national conventions in Chicago and St. Louis. Large num- bers of women are planning to go to Chicago and to take part in the great parade which looks now as though the number will be nearer fifty thousand than forty thousand which was ex- pected. Very soon a meeting in Put nam will be held with Mrs. George Day and Mrs. Edward Porritt of Hart ford as speakers.
