An Easy Way To Get
Fat And Be Strong

The trouble with most thin folks who
wish to gain weight is that they insist
ON drugging their stomach or stuffing
it with greasy foods; rubbing on USE
foolish physical culture stunt, while
the real cause of thinness goes I'M
touched. You cannot get fat until
your digestive tract assimilates the
food you eat.
There is q preparation known to re-
which seemingly ennbodies the missing
elements needed by the digestive orr
gans to help them convert food into
rich, fat-laden blood. This modern
treatment is called Sargol and has been
termed the greatest of flesh builders
constructive powers to coax the stom-
ach and intestines to literally soak up
the fattening elements of your food
and pass them into the blood, where
they are carried to the starved, broken
down cells and tissues of your body.
this amazing transformation should
produce as with increased weight the
cheeks fill out, hollows about neck
shoulders and bust disappear and from
10 to 20 pounds of solid. healthy flesh
is added to the body. Sargol is abso-

Store, Willimantic, and other leading
druggists of this vicinity have it and

NOTE:-Sargol is recommended only
as flesh builder and while excellent
results in cases of nervous indigestion,

taken about using it unless a gain Of
weight is desired.

o 0 GEORGE OF GREECE-o o

Ex- Premier venize1os' following has
several times during the course of the
European war considered the overthrow
Of King Constantine and the placing of
Crown Prince George on the throne,
Salonflzi dispatches now report When
Constantine Of Greece was reported i'll
and dying in the summer of 1915 it was
expected that If Crown Prince George
succeeded he would instantly reverse
the pro-German policy of his father and
follow the advice of Venizelos, who adj
vocated participation in the war by the
allies on Behalf Of Greece. Prince
George was horn July 19, 1890. He is
unmarried. His engagement to Prin
cess Elizabeth of Roumania was an
nounced in 1914; but, owing to the war,
the wedding was postponed. George
has kept in the background during the
war. When the entente troops landed
at Saloniki last year the king sent the
crown prince to take charge of the
Greek forces there. 1t was reported
ssdsxal IRonths saSp that the prince

had been sent on mission to the Ger
man Austrian emperors. But allied
diplomats and others who have studied
George reached the conclusion that his
attitude on the war was nearly the OPP
posite of that of his father. Before the
war the father and son were both con-
sidered anti-German, like the rest of
Greece, for the reason that Germany
had trained, n1unitioned and in part
differed the Turkish armies during the
first Balkan war and had taken the
part Of Bulgaria in the second. AL
though Queen Sophia was the sister
of the German kaiser, the Greek royal
family was for long time unfriendly
with Wilhelm because ne had address,
ed what was regarded as an insulting
message to her when she allowed her
self to be converted from the Lutheran
to the Greek Orthodox church without
his sanction. This quarrel had been
patched up before the war;, however,
and Queen Sophia was a loyal Hohen-
zo!legnl as well as q. Creek queen.

for employment at higher schedules
of pay than the government provides

Two NURSES SECURED
TO VISIT CITY HOMES.
sNNiII Examine All Children and Report
to Health Officer Jenkins - Orders
!. Issued.

: City Health Officer DR. C. "A jenkins
Ehas issued the following orders in re-
gard to the paralysis situation in Will
Flimantic:
{ ALL fruit or vegetables exposed. for

wise same will be condemned as UNFIT
for human consumption.
aChildren under 16 years OF age
must be excluded from churches, Sun
day schools, theatres or public gather
ings until further notice.
3-Children should be prevented from
Ifondling cats and dogs.
These orders, which will be rigidly
enforced, are the outcome of a confer
Ience of the mayor and the health Of

also decided at the conference that DIR.

act as he saw fit in regard to issuing
iorderS in the present situation The
of two nurses, who started on their
duties Wednesday. 1t will be their
duty to visit every home in the city
where there are children and conduct
an investigation. In this way it is
Thought that if there are any suspicious
cases that have not received medical
attention they will come to the notice
of the officials and at once be put ul;-
der quarantine. In order to avoid con-
fusion in this matter, the city has been
divided into sections and the nurses
will work under the direction of Dr..
Jenkins.
There has been only one case of tho
disease reported to the officials in the
last "a hours, and that a mild one

at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Andrew
iNuczyn at 78 Chapman street and
found that their year old daughter
Mary was suffering from a mild case
of facial paralysis. The child was put
under suspicion Tuesday but paralysis
did not develop until the next day.
There is another child in the family
that is i'll, but as yet no signs of pa
ralysis have become apparent.
There are now six cases of the dis
ease in the city, some showing i'm
provement, while the others remain
