A Fishing Excursion

Not quite out Of sight Of land, but
a good ways out in the ocean sat a
fisherman and five children in an
old fishing boat. 1t was not often
that the fisherman had so much
company. but today he was taking
his children for a ride and picnic
also after he had caught some fish.
Though he didn't expect to catch
many with five noisy children in
his usually quiet boat.
Just before starting each of the
children had tied string to stick
and their father gave them a hook.
For they each expected to catch
many fish that day. "But that's not
likely" said their father, "for they
are too noisy" But they did catch
a few small fish.
After they were through fishing
they went to a small island. There
the fisherman cooked his fish and
the children unpacked the lunch.
After they had eaten their lunch
they fished some more. This time
the fisherman made them be quiet,
so he could catch some large fish
which he knew were in the still
water around the island. When
they got home that night they
were tired but happy Margaret

 Sfrond by Vinot

Strong by vinoi.
 For the benefit of Norwich school girls who, overwork and get into highly nervous, weak and rundown condition, we publish this letter from Doris Coplier. of Forth Worth, Tex "I go to the high school and take music lessons, and became run down, weak and very nervous, so could not do anything would shake all over and could have screamed at times, and was really unfit to keep on with my studies. Mother purchased a bottle of Vino1 for me and within a week I was better. and in two weeks had gained five pounds and felt fine"
 It is the curative, strengthening elements of beef and cod liver pep tones, aided by the blood-making, revitalizing effect of iron and manga nese peptonates and glyceropl1os- phates, contained in VinoI, which made it so successful in building up health and strength and overcoming the nervous condition of Miss CopIier, and we ask every school girl in Nor- wich who is in a like condition to try Vinol, on our guarantee to return their money if it fails to benefit.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
SATURDAYS MARKET.
Dull Because of Complicated Interna
 tionai Conditions.

New York Feb. 10.-Business on thu stock exchange today dwindled to the insignificant total of 1S2, 900 shares, oi which U. $. Steel and a few othel favorites contributed almost 40 pei cent. Next Mondays holiday and the complicated international situation &C., counted largely for the extreme apathy
 The tone was irregular throughout Steel and a few war Specialties, as well as some Of the high grade rails, evincing a fair degree of strength, this being more than neutralized, however, by the heavy to weak tone Of special plemented it's recent break with fur ther loss of almost points. Air Brake dropped points, Bethlehem Steel 4, Saxon Motors 1S, Barrett company 4 34. and American Agricultural Chem
 Shippings were strong, regardless of the embarrassment which threatens the general export trade in consequence of the embargo on outbound freight ere ated by the German submarine menace. Coppers were active and generally higher, presumably in response to the excellent statements of earnings for the final quarter of 1916 submitted by the Utah and Chino companies.
 Declines in some of the equipments already mentioned were offset by firm ness in Central Leather, American Lo. comotive, American Zinc, International Nickel and Industrial Alcohol. U. s. Steel made an extreme and net gain of l 3s points at 105 1-2.
 The bank statement was the most noteworthy exhibit in many weeks, ac- tual loans showing the enormous con- traction of SIS, ,60s,ooo and net demand deposits a decrease of S104,514 900. These unusual changes are direct re- dection on the pronounced falling off in market operations, as well as the probable consummation of recent i'm portant financial undertakings.
 Weekly reports of the nnercanfile agencies denote a continuance of &C., iEity tempered by hesitation arising rom foreign conditions.
 The bond market was irregular, with total sales (par value) aggregating e1. .770, 900.
 All United States and Panama bond Issues were lower by 3-4 to 1 1-2 per cent. on call.

Although considerable opposition developed last spring among certain of the big league magnates asains1 the playing of ante-season fnterleagut games the agitation appears to have had little effect for more contests o1 this class have been scheduled for the next two months than was the case in 1916. A year ago the various clubs of the two major leagues met in more than thirty of these training season games while close to fifty have al- ready been announced for the coming campaign with several clubs yet to make public their plans in this direc- ton.
 As a preliminary to the pennant races of last year the big circuit
 teams met in thirty-nine games either interleague or interciub with the re- suit that the National League clubs won twenty-four American League combinations fifteen. The senior or ganization piled up a total of 30s hits and 154 runs to the juniors aso American League players made a slightly better showing, the final an- aIysis crediting sixty-one to the Ma tionals and ffty-eight to the Ameri- cans.
 This year forty mine interleague games have been scheduled to date with Brooklyn in the National and Boston and New York in the Amerf- can League playing with the greatest numOef or contests. The New Ofk Giants and the Boston Braves are sec ond in the National while Detroit holds a similar position in the Ameri- can League.

YALE WINS IN
 OVERTIME GAME St. Niek's Put Up Stiff Fight But
 Lost.

After a bit over eight minutes of hard fought battling in an extra hockey period Yale succeeded for the second time this season in defeating the St. Nicholas seven at the New Haven Arena Saturday night to g. The game was by far the most bit terly contested affair seen on the To- cal ice and it was only when the vis- iting defence weakened that the vic tory came to the Eli men.
 Both sevens showed great team work, both in defence and offense and neither side found it easy to carry the puck any distance. The shift made in the Yale lineup seemed to have done it good and the men in their new positions worked well. The stickwork was especially fine, both teams using every trick in the trade to try to score. The ice was in perfect condi- tion and the men found little dif1cul- ty in exhibiting their speed.

Steamship Mongolia Again Has Brush
With Submarines in Which Is Be-
Iieved Sent to Bottom.

London, June 6. = The American
armed merchant liner Mongolia has
put into British port bringing as
dramatic a tale of a brush with sub
marines as has been told in Germany's
submarine warfare
The Mongolia ran into a NEST" Of
submarines when 225 miles from her
port of destination on June 1. One
"eye" of a submarine was sighted
hundred yards distant, and immedi-
ately the American naval gun was
trained on it. Almost simultaneously
the aft gun spoke in shot fired at
the second pe1scope, this one about
1900 yards distant. Lieutenant Sey-
mour, U. S. N, i'm charge of the gun
crew, believes this aft guns shell
reached it's mark, and that the subma-
rine was sunk.

Equestrian SITUATION
sternation in German Press Which
Fears RevoIts.

Copenhagen, June 6.-The opening
of the Austrian parliament has caused
something akin to CONSERVATION in the
German press and the pan-German or
gans especially are filled with gloomy
predictions over the political situation
in the dual monarchy. Their uneasi-
ness is largely based on the fact that
the German party is in a very marked
minority in the Austrian chamber of
deputies, while the fall of Count
Tisza in Hungary has given renewed
confidence to the Czech and other
anti-German elements.
