THE VERDUN FIGHT.

In the fight which Germany is MAX
ing for the possession of the French
stronghold of Verdun there is no letup
In the determined effort. In spite of
the great losses which have been suf-
fered for the amount of territory
gained they continue to rush new di-
visions into the contest, and regard
less of the resistance which the
French are offering they are able to
make progress even though it is slight.
Little by little they are gaining pos
session of the vantage points, lust as
If they had come to the conclusion that
1t was only by the slow grinding pro-
cess that they could ever attain their
object.
Gradually are the lines being ex-
tended about Verdup, first on one side
and then on the other. Bit by bit
nave the Teutons pushed forward, and
wherever they have been temporarily
repulsed it has only meant that more
determined efforts were made with the
eventual result that they are steadily
pulling down the obstacles which
stand in the way. 1t cannot help being
felt that they are paying a terrible
price for whatever gains they are
making, but they apparently feel that
they not only can but must meet it,
The French are having the advan-
tage of the natural and artificial de-
tenses in that locality, which make IL
possible for them to get the most eff
Client results from a small number of
men IN comparison to the large num-
Ders which Germany is using and los
ing. Thus far the French have seri-
ously impeded the German onslaughts
but they have by no means stopped
them and it remains to be seen whether
the slow eating process will eventually
lead to victory, or whether the de-
tenders are reservlng their greater re-
sistance for a time when 1t can be
more effective.

FLYING ACROSS THE ATLANTIC

1t was two years ago that claims
were made that it was possible to
cross the Atlantic in an airship and
considerable thought was given to such
an undertaking, with plans being made
for attempting it by the shortest
route. Nothing came of it and the
big flying machine America, in which
the flight was to be made, was sent
to Europe for use in the war In the
meantime extensive experiments have
been made with aeroplanes and the
part which they have played in the
war has demonstrated more than ever
their serVicability in making fights
under all conditions, so that now when
Rodman Wanamaker again revives the
idea of crossing the ocean it creates
less surprise than it did when the
plan was first presented.
In the matter of aeronautics this
country has always been a leader. so
that 1t is nothing new or would not
be strange if such a feat should be
accomplished by an American, but
with the ingenuity and ability display
ed by American inventors in this di-
rectiCn it is surprising that this coun-
try does not keep pace with the prog
ress made in the science in other
countries.
After the Wrights had demonstrated
that it was possible to navigate the
air by flying machines, the nations
across the water were quick to real
lze the Importance of the discovery
and steadily improve upon it through
extensive experiments and those gov
ernments are now getting the benefit
OF such work, while in this country
almost all this development has been
left to individuals and the aviation
service in Mexico shows the effects
of it.
Thus it is but likely that if it is
round possible to cross the water in
flying machines that it will be the
countries on the other side which will
be the first to make commercial use
of such an advantage,

BIG EXPORT BUSINESS.

A few days ago rumors of peace were
started because New Orleans bust
ness house had received the cancella-
ton for a largo order for lumber, the
conclusion which was jumped at being
that since the lumber contracted for
could not, be used the war was about
to end. There have been no subse-
quent signs of peace, however, and
there is no evidence that there will be
peace until some important victory
has been won.
The run1or likewise gave ground for
the claim that our export business
which has run up into large figures
wonld likewise feel the effects of a
declaration of peace and that was to q
certain extent borne out by the de-
crease in January, but the figures
which have just been issued by the
department of commerce for the
months OF February set that all askew
for 1t Is shown that in that short
month American exports reached the
highest point in the history Of the
country, the total amount of goods
sent abroad reaching the sum of s409,-
896,525. which exceeds the previous
bigh mark for last December by $780,

An Easy Way to
Increase Weight
Good Advice for Thin Folks

The trouble with most thin folks who
wish to gain weight is that they insist
on drugging their stomachs or stuffinE
II with greasy foods: rubbing on use
less flesh creams, or following some
foolish physical culture stunt, while the
real real cause OF thinness goes untouched.
1ou cannot get fat until your digestive
tract ass initiates the food you eat
There is a preparation known to re-
liable druggists almost everywhere
which seemingly embodies the missing
elements needed by the digestive or
rich, fat-laden blood. This modern
treatment is called Sargol and has been
termed the greatest Of hesh-builders.
Sargol aims through regeneratiye re-
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
down cells and tissues Of your body.
You can readily picture what result
this amazing transformation should
produce as with increased weight the
checks fill out. hollows about neck
shoulders and bust disappear and from
is added to the body. Sargol Is abso-
lutely harmless, inexpensive, efficient.

ity have il and will refund your money
If you are not satisfied as per the

NOTE: Sargol is recommended only
results in cases of nervous indigestion,
etc. have been reported. care should be
taken about using II unless a gain of
weight is desired.

THEIR KINDEsT REGARDS

The stout woman rustled across the
hall and tapped excitedly upon the
door Of the thin woman's fat.

friend appeared, 81 simply had to come
over and tell you the minute Elsie

ed me up for? To tell me that Beryl

woman, Come right in and sit down!
Well, if a girl like Beryl can get en-
gagged I think the world is coming to
an end! OF course she is Elsie's
daughter and suppose Elsie has to
make the best of it, but"

woman. why, If my daughter had a

nice on that account! Edgar has such
a good hearth"

stout woman firmly, 81 want to keep

cause it must be such a relief to get
Beryl off her hands. I presume she
had felt she was destined never TO

the opposite case with Irene and me!
I have guarded her very carefully to
escape the mistake of an early marri-
age"
Irene is %, isn't she?" asked the
thin woman smoothly.

In old Serbia the inhabitants suf-
fered in the most inhuman manner.
After having all their goods looted by
the soldiers, their wives and daughters

lie two soldiers who had violated a
young girl were killed by the inhab-
itants. All the inhabitants were hello
responsible for the alleged crime and
had to answer for it.

has become a common saying whenever
anyone suddenly DISAPPEARS to say
hat he has gone to Sofia. AS the
hospitals are all lacking in sanitary
equipment, the Bulgarrians announced
some time ago that the wounded would
be sent to Sofia. 1t is believed that
they have all been killed.
There was a massacre among the
students at Skoplje. Practically all
the inhabitants of Old Serbia who had
settled in New Serbia have been killed

Oh, she has plenty of timel Why, Ell
sic was positively gurgling with Joy!
She can't have much motherly affec-
ton for Beryl to be so cheerful over
losing her!"
II should say noti" agreed the thin
woman. why when Edgar would call
on Berry,, just because he felt sorry
Tor her, her mother would simply break
her neck to cook things for him and
show Off Beryl using the chatting dish
and everything! She passed ii of by
saying that she loved to have young
people about! However, with my adj
vice, Edgar was able to escape the
traps they laid. I've no doubt Elsie
would have been overjoyed to get Ed

told me to whom she is engaged"

because he has a big income she thinks
it's going to be all right! Why, she's
Irene never did like him, but Beryl and
some of the other girls around here
simply chased after him outrageouslyi
Il wouldn't have Irene marry a man
like that for anything! He'll probably
run through his money and those good
looking men are always being flirted
with by other girls and I've not the
slightest doubt 1t will end in a divorce
before two years are out! You mark
my words! And Beryl so homely!
What can he see in her!"
Hendricks Jones!" echoed the thin
woman Indignantly. 'sWell," she pro-
ceeded, 81 suppose when she found she
couldn't get Edgar she just took most
anything! WHY, Edgar is enough bet

making more than any Hendricks

I'm sure Elsie knows it and is just

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Norwich was not spoken of by any of
the speakers at the last meeting of the
Board of Trade.
And when the grand list of Norwich
is where 1t ought to be, at least $780,
100000, with a tax rate of IA mills in
stead of 81, 900, with a tax rate of
20 IA mills, Norwich will be on the
map, and not before.
The real boomers are not the husi-
ness houses that insure their business
for $4,000 or $4,000 and hand in a
$4,000 or $4,000 list, but the common
people that own their little homes
that cost $500 and go into the tax
list for $4,000. You may have all the
civic bodies going, but, until the tax
lists are put in at somewhere near
their value, you can talk until doom's
day about prosperity, and it will not
amount to a row of pins against a
% IA mill tax rate, and the town
meeting, March 90, and Mr.. CarrolPs
wooden mill prove it
And as to Mr.. Ayers moral. IF you
don't want to see it, don't look at it,
if he will only give US another moral
as to what to do with our smelling
apparatus. so we cannot smell it, il
will be all the glory anyone could de-
sire.

AUTOMATIC TRAIN STOPS.

With the additions to the train
wrecks, in which so many lives have
been lost and in which the failure of
those in charge Of the trains have ap-
parently played such an important
part, it is but natural that there
should be a revival of the demand for
an automatic stop which would halt
the train even when the engineer,
either carelessiy or Internationally
runs by signals set against him.
1t wasn't long ago that the New
Haven road upon realizing the point
of such a claim made an effort to get
the inventors interested in devising
an arrangement which would prove
satisfactory and accomplish what was
sought. It offered a substantial prize
for device which would meet the re-
quirements but though several ideas
were investigated none was acceptable
The demand for this automatic stop
arose after a series of accidents in
which it appeared that engine drivers
were to blame in not obeying the reg
ulations or the signals, and this same
situation is revealed by the recent
wreck which occurred in Ohio, when
three New York Central trains were
involved, the claim being that if the
signals had been properly observed
and respected there would have been
no collision and consequently no loss
Of life, and that inasmuch as it is
possible to perfect a signal system it
ought to be possible for those familiar
with automatic devices to perfect a stop
which would work in connection with
signals in case the man at the throt-
tie Should fail from any cause what
ever Every wreck of the kind causes
a renewal of this demand and it is a
matter which ought to get deserved
attention.

Exemptions.

Mr.. Editor: There is no doubt spe-
cial exemptions from tax are pernic-
ious in their effect because they do
not contain within themselves the
principles of justice.
The voters have a right to vote
these exemptions. but why should they
not extend $4,000 exemption TO the
new Hopkins & Allen Arms Co. as well
as to this wooden company. Why not
have a regular system instead of $751;
600 to the Thermos Bottle company
$4,000 as an auxiliary investment to
the Arms company, ETC., etc.
Why should new establishments be
exempted from tax for 10 years and
old, struggling concerns or new home
concerns be given no consideration
whatever.
Is it not better to do things sanely
and methodically rather than spas
medically in response to the argu-
ments of hired agents?

NO LEGISLATIVE ENCOURAGE.
MENT,

The impression appears to prevail
in certain quarters that because there
have been so many ships made I'M
available because of destruction or in
ternment that the opportunities for
the American merchant marine which
exist today are going to continue after
the war. It is well to understand that
this country has found itself handi-
capped by the lack Of merchant ves-
sells. It's shipyards are crowded with
orders in an endeavor to meet the re-
quirements Of the transportation bus
mess, and in some instances it is i'm
possible to get deliveries of much
needed ships inside of three years, but
the reasons for this activity on the
part of American shipping is not be-
cause conditions have been made so
inviting in this country but because
those countries, which have in the past
made it advantageous for registration
under their flags, are for the time being
experiencing the disadvantages i'm
posed by the war, as the result of
which we are getting the benefit.
The conditions are such that for the
present the obstacles which have pre-
vented the development of the Ameri-
can merchant marine can be disre-
garded, for rates are high and vessels
are in demand, but following the war
there will be a resumption of the old
time competition. The shipping of
this country must compete with the
shipping of countries which have the
same old time advantages, if not more,
and then there will be felt the full
meaning of the failure to encourage
American shipping. 1t is the war, not
ell live
shipping in this country today. and
when that war is over there will be a
return to the normal, which, as the
past shows, leaves the American ship
ping interests in an unfavorable posi-
ton.
