REGISTRARS CAN'T FIND THOUSANDS OF
 OLD BRIDGEPORTERS
Between 5000 and 4,00O Are Missing From City Vot-
 ing Lists

There are between 5000 and 1000 old voters of Bridgeport whom the registrars have been unable to lind
 in making their canvas this year. The registrars believe that these voters.
 due to the increase in price and the
 scarcity of rents here, have gone to live in Devon, Stratford, Fairfield, Southport, Milford or other surround ing places just over the city line. Un-
 der the state law they must reside SIX
 months in the town before they may vote on municipal affairs. Under a literal construction of the law these
 electors having lost residence in
 Bridgeport and not lived long enough
 in other towns to establish residence there, would lose their votes.
 However the registrars of voters
 find that Chapter 166, Public Acts of
 1915, page 2,00O provides for just this contingency. Those who have moved
 from Bridgeport recently and have
 not lived in other towns long enough
 tu establish voting residence, may
 be retained on the lists in Bridgeport to vote for National and State officers if they will notify the registrars of vo- ters here.
 In order to get in touch with these former voters the registrars have
 mailed slips worted as follows: Sir:-You were voter at the above address at the last election, but Re have been unable, so far, to find where you are residing at the present time. If you wish to vote at the coming election it is absolutely necessary that you mo- tify us not later than Oct IA. as to your present address or your, name will not appear upon the voting list. T As the largest vote is usually boiled
 at the presidential election the regis trars are desirous that old voters who hsve changed their places of residence
 imrnediateiy inn ? sny get in communication Those who have not voted in Bridge port and who have lived one year in
 tho etate and six months in this city
 should at once file application with the registrars, to be made voters. No application will be received or acted upon after Monday. October Is, at , r. m.

On one occasion in Central park, New

CHARACTER IN THE TONGUE

Is Any Sense TO This New
Science, 3o-CaIled.

Put out your tongue" is a phrase
associated in most peoples minds will
doctors, and is usually reminiscent oi
minor ailments and nasty medicines
spoken by a glossomancist, however
the curt command takes on an alto
gether different significance.
A glossomancist, 1t may be as wei
to explain, is a professor of glosso
NANCY, new science which consists
in reading peoples characters by the
shape and size of their tongues.
Thus. according to its votaries, the
possessor of a short and broad tongue
is apt to be untruthful as to words
and unreliable as to deeds. A long
tongue moderately pointed. denotes
frankness, and a loving. trustful, at
fectionate disposition When the
tongue is long and broad, however, II
is sign that the owner is shallow
snnd superficial and also a great talk
er. The typical woman gossip, say
glossomancists, almost always show
this shape Of tongue.
The small round tongue. plump, and
in shape like an oyster denotes medi
ocre abilities, and a nature that if
commonplace and colorless. A short
narrow tongue goes with a nature that
is at once quick-tempered and yet af
fectionate. strong and sudden in hat,
as in love
The worst tvpe of tongue is the
