Ordinance to
Make Peddling
of Booze Hard

Police officers will find their
work of catching "bootleggers"
simplified as the result of an or
dinance passed by the city council
today on Commissioner Mills re-
quest.
The ordinance provides a fine
of 500 or 30-day sentence for
any person who has liquor for
the evident purpose of selling It,,
giving it away, or otherwise vio-
lating the statute
Heretofore, although the police
caught suspected peddlers of
liquor, they could not convict
them because the law allows
every individual to have in his
possession two quarts.

Halifax, Feb. 2.-Hope for the safety

reported that she had been sending out
numerous calls for assistance and HAT

by. The Silver Shell reported that all

ports that the two ships had crashed to-
gether overnight, though previous
message indicated that stories that she
had sunk probably originated from her
inability to reach other ships by wire.

dental. The real purpose of the oecas
ion the spirit and motive prompting
the same is what we all should recOg-
nize. Since the organizing of the So
cial Service Center serious and pathet-
ic conditions have been discovered. A
great number of most deserving people
are momentarily in need Of assistance
and help. The Social Service Center
has ministered unto these needs un-
til its funds became exhausted. To
continue this relief work and ministra-
tiOn the play was suggested as a
means Of giving every one a chance to
make a cheerful contribution to this
noble work.
Here then is our golden opportunity
as a Christian people to lend a hand.
Here is our opportunity to bear wit
ness to our deeper spiritual impulses.
Here we may answer the call of the
needy and deserving brother. Let us
as people arise to answer the call by
our presence, by our help and sympa-
thetic cooperation. Let us each bring
our offering of lovins nelpfulness. Let
each contribute our mite to make glad

an old preparation, used all over the
world for centuries, combining natural

ROAD TO HEALTH IS
THROUGH THE KIDNEYS

No person alive is stronger than his
kidneys. The minute the kidneys be-
come disarranged or clogged with
waste the warning is flashed through
out the entire system. The greater
part Of all sickness today can be avoid
ed by keeping the kidneys working
properly.
Most any reliable druggist in this
vicinity can probably tell you Of many
well-known people whom Solvax, the
standard kidney remedy, has restored to
health, often after they have tried
many other methods of treatment with
little or no benefit.
There are hundreds of people who
were not the least bit surprised when
they read awhile ago that Daniel j..
Fry is selling Solvax on a guarantee
to refund the money in case it did not
relieve. This remarkable kidney rem
edy is guaranteed to help the worst
case of lazy, sluggish, or clogged-up
kidneys, or the general headaehy, kinRy
backed, played out condition that af-
flicts people suffering with kidney
trouble. Solvax does not simply re-
lieVe. 1t aims to cure.
The best kind of Advertising is the
praise of pleased customer, and there
are hundreds today praising Solvax be-
cause it has done for them what it is
advertised to do. Not very long ago
they were afflicted with all manner of
sickish, uncomfortable pains and each
day seemed to bring with it new ache
in some other part of their body. Since
using Solvax they are once more bright
and clipper and able to enjoy life at
its fullest with no more fear of suf-
fering.
We doubt if any other kidney remedy
has made such a large percentage OF
cures as Solvax. 1t is so large that its
owners are perfectly safe in standing
ready to refund the price to any Gus
toner whom it does not help. This is
good time to get well and you ought
to take advantage of this offer. Get
it from Daniel j. Fry or any well
| stocked drug store.

Unexpected Check After
Years Of Waiting Is Fatal
to Fish Dealer

After five years of waiting I. H. Taf-
fe received a rebate ON an overeharge
from the express company but the shock
was too great and he dropped dead on
the spot according to the information
received by the Public Service commits
sion this morning. Mr.. Taffe was a
pioneer fish dealer of Cello and on De.
eember 10, 1910, shipped ear load of
fish weighing 2l,60U pounds to New
York by way of the American, National
and Northern Express companies. 1t ap-
pears that he was overcharged $24S.40
on the carload and the Interstate Com
merce commission issued an order De.
cember 80, 1915, requiring the compan-
les to return to Mr. Taffe the sum of
s24S4O with six per cent interest from
December 10, 1910.
The rebate check arrived January 81,
of this year, and Mr.. Taffe was unable
to withstand the shock. His funeral
services were held at Cello last Sun
day.
Mr.. Taffe at first attempted to secure
the rebate through attorneys but was
unable to accomplish anything and the
matter wyas placed before the state
Public Service commission in 1914. The

FOR TAKATA MARU
Wireless Stations Are Send

Boston, Mass, Feb. 2.-Wireless sta
tions from here nOrthward along the
Atlantic seaboard snapped out calls to-
day to steamers in the vicinity of Cape
Race in the hope of gaining further
word of the japanese steamer Takata
Maru, reported sinking at midnight aft
er q collision off Cape Race with the
tank ship Silver Shell.
From the Silver Shell came word
indicating the Japanese vessel had gone
down and that the Silver Shell was
crippled, with the steamer Ammonia
standing by. The last previous word
of the Japanese ship said Groom full of
water" indicating probably that the
waves had gone through to the dynamo
compartment.
The Silver Shell was petroleum laden,

while the Takata Maru was 10 days
out of London for New York.

O'Clock last night, We picked up an

we heard, You are badly hit, we will

last message saying, I'VE will trust you.

over meantime, one vessel signalled
that she was the Silver Shell and gave
her position. We did not get the name
of the other nor how badly she was
hit"
Other wireless messages gave code
signature, however, indicating that the
second ship was the Takata Maru.
