your liver and boWeIs-there' no need
of having a sallow complexion-darlz
rings under your eyes-pimples-a bill

no sparkle.
Your doctor will tell you ninety per
cent. of all sickness comes from mac
tive bowels and liver.
DR.. Edwards, a well-known physician
in Ohio, perfected a vegetable COM
pound mixed with olive oil to act on
the liver and bowels, which he gave
to his patients for years.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets, the sub
stitute for calomel, are gentle in their
action, yet always effective.
They bring about that exuberance of
spirit. that natural buoyancy which
should be enjoyed by everyone, by ton

new INDUSTRY FOR NORWICH
Winchester Wooden Company Buy Large Tract River
Front at MISUNDERSTANDING Erect Four-Story
Concrete Building TO Expend Over $25O,OoO for
Equipment
Equipment.

After several weeks Of negotiations
between the Winchester Wooden COM
pany of New York and George w.
Carroll of this city, the Winchester
people have been granted options on
10000 square feet of land along the
riverfront at Thamesville, and if sat
isfactory tax arrangements can be
made with the city the concern intends
TO purchase the tract and to erect a
four-story concrete building, boiler
house, engine house, warehouse and
equipment. at an expenditure of over
$780, 900.
The tract of land is located along
the Thames river, south of the Inter-
national Silver company's plant, and is
owned by Mr.. Carroll, John P. Hunt
ington and others. The tract has a
frontage on the river of several nun
bred feet and extends back to the Cen
trail Vermont railroad tracks, a dis
lance of over 800 feet. In view of its
location, having both rail and water
facilities, the tract provides an ideal
location for a manufacturing plant
such as the Winchester Wooden COM
pany intends to erect.
The Winchester company has a num-
Der of mills at various points and if
the proposed project is carried out the
local plant would be in the nature of
a branch office. The company has or
ders booked ahead that will keep them
busy for months to come.
1t is said that other cities have Of
fered to give the company not only a
low tax rate and cheap water and
power, but have also offered to make
liberal subscriptions to the company S
stock. The company asks no money in
stock subscriptions, their only de-
mands being a reduced tax rate for a
term of years and satisfactory rates on
water and power. From the present

indications it appears that this is an
excellent opportunity for the citizens of
Norwich to secure another large indus
try for the city.
In purchasing land, erecting a four
story concrete building, constructing
docks and in erecting boiler and en-
CINE house and warehouses, the COM
pany intends to make an expenditure
of over $3.50, 000 The main factory is
to be 150xSO feet in dimensions and
four stories in height. 1t will be To-
Gated along the brook which enters the
enabling the company to make use of
the sewer. Nearer the river and in
front of the factory, the boiler and
engine house will be located. 1t is eX-
pected that it will require over 500
horse power and a large amount Of
water to run the plant at full capacity.
A siX-inch main would be necessary
to provide the company with the
necessary water to operate its plant.
According to a statement made on
Thursday, the company is ready to
purchase the land and start cOnstruc-
ton work Immediately, provided the
citizens of Norwich are willing to vote
them a low fixed tax valuation for a
term of years, and provided that salts
factory arrangements can be made in
regard to water and electricity. A spe-
cial town meeting has been called for
next Wednesday evening at S o'clock,
when action on the matter will be
taken by the voters of Norwich. Blue
prints which are now being prepared
will be exhibited at the meeting in
order to give the voters an idea of the
factory and other buildings which it is
proposed to erect. There is little doubt
but what the meeting will have a rec
! ord attendance, as the matter is of in
terest to every voter in the town.

PUNCHING MAIL MATTER.
Prohibited For the Future BY Post
Office Authorities.

The punching Of mail matter by
nostmasters is prohibited in an order
just received by pose offices from the
department at Washington
The department says that at has
been more or less of common prac-
tce among pohtmasters to take mail
matter of different classes, tie them
together in one bundle. placing the
required number of stamps on the
outside Of the composite package and
forwar o. return it to some sender
or addressee.
This practice the post office DEPART
ment hints has cost the government
much money, on account of the fact
that when mail of different classes
such as the second, third and fourth
classes is placed together in one pack
age. the postage is lower than when
such parcel is weighed separately and
postage is affixed TO each separate
piece of mail matter
