Too Much Scoffing at Bald Heads.
 Providence JOurnal.)

We learn vaguely that a bald-hea d. ed man in Connecticut has been awarded the prize for being the hand sOmest man in a parade in his home town. It would be immensely interest ing to know how he managed to cre- ate the illusion. "-The Evening Bulle- tin.
 To begin with, he proba bly, kept his hat on.
 But why should anybody deny the right of bald-headod men to inclusion in the ranks of their goOd-IOOking fel- lows? Some men are handsome in spite of their baldncss. To some tho absence of hair lends positive dignity -mcl0rcholy but unmi@taLnblo.

Official warning has been given to milk dealers who do business in New Britain to hasten in putting their H- cense plates on their wagons as re- qured by statute. If these m1lkmen do not do this at once prosecutions will follow. The idea of having milk men licensed Is good one. It not only provides another source of rev. enue but it makes it possible for the inspectors to keep an accurate record of all dealers that their methods may be watched and their products care fully inspected. The plan works out well too, and there is not very often milkman who refuses to abide by this law A couple of years ago, however, there was one milkman who, because of alleged personal enmity to the in spector, steadfastly refused to equip his wagons with license plates. Just as regularly did the inspector have him arrested and regularly the case went to the higher court. It got so at one time that these prosecutions came as a matter of course and finally the higher courts became disgusted ana declined to accept the cases.

Recent disclosures showing that through faulty construction, the new PrevOcatiOnal Grammar school foun- dalton is sinking and repair will cost in the neigh borhood of $1O,0O0 have brought forth a new subject for the charter revision committee to thresh
 out. It is the amendment for the or sanitation of a municipal building commission that will have full charge of the supervision of all city buildings,
 such as schools, etc. Heretofore the school board has had full charge of all school building construction, from ac- cepting the plans and specifications to accepting the building. Those who are promoting the proposed ordinance change think the school board should devote it's entire attention tO edUCa- tom! rN"ttoTs and permit some other board to take ca 70 of construction TnH cr'. It is argued that with a mu- n-9iE0! building commission. the duty of which would be to get the best at the lowest cost, the commission could devote it's entire time to the matter of construction and might get better re-

It is the word "insanitary," meaning things not sanitary. A great many people believe the correct word is "unsanitary' and it is not through lack of education either. It is merely false idea. One of the best educated men in New Britain during the past week had occasion to notice publicly the word "insanitary" and called at tention to the fact that it was a n1is- take. Shown that he was wrong, he ad- nitted his own error and declared he had learned something. Webster has no such word as "unsanitary.'

The Folly Of Taking
Digestive Pills
A Warning to Dyspeptics.

The habit of taking digestive
pills after meals makes chronic
dyspeptics of many thousands of
me, and women because artificial
digestents. drugs and medicines
have practically no influence upon
the excessively acid condition of
the stomach contents which is the
cause of most forms of indigestion
and dyspepsia.
The after dinner pill merely les
sens the sensitiveness of the stom-
ach nerves and thus gives a false
sense of freedom from pain. II
those who are subject to indiges-
ton, gas, flatulence, belching,
bloating, heartburn, etc., after eat
ing would get about an ounce of
pure bisurated magnesia from
their druggist and take teaspoon
full in a little water after meals,
there would be no further neces-
sity for drugs or medicines because
bisurated magnesia instantly neu-
tralizes stomach acidity, stops food
fermentation and thus insures nor
NAL. painless digestion by enabling
the stomach to do its work with
out hindrance.
