HIGH COST OF
 SMOKING HITS NORWICH
Three For a Quarter Cigars Are Now
 Ten Gents Straight.

The high cost of smoking has hit this city The chap who has been in the habit of ordering three for a quarter" cigars has been paying 10 cents straight for his smokes for some weeks Now the five-cent cigars are to be advanced to six cents, 1t is said, and smoking tobacco will henceforth be 10 cents more a pound. The five cent packages of pipe tobacco will not be advanced in price, but where they contained 1 1-2 ounces of tobacco now, in the futur ethey will weigh less than an ounce. While the high priced cigarettes have been advanced five cents on a package, it is intlmated from reliable sources that the five cent packages will be reduced from 10 cigarettes to 8, instead of raising the price.
 The National Retailers Council of the Tobacco Merchants association gives as an exclamation for this raise in tobacco the following statements on the situation in the retail tobacco field:
 ''The time has come when a serious crisis is confronting the retail cigar business. The producing Of all to- bacco products and the cost Of all mat~tals entering into manufacturing of tobacco products, have been stead ilv increa sing. The raise. the associa- tion further asserts. is also due to the exorbitant price now prevailing for leaf tobacco. Contracts for 1917 crops are now being made and the prices are the highest in years

SPARKS. CIRCUS.
Trained Seals Posing Horses and
 Dogs Were Feature Attractions.

There were large audiences at both performances Of the Sparks circus Wednesday afternoon and evening. The program was one Of the best ever seen. in the city and deserves special credit for a snappy and clean per formance. The features were the troupe of trained seals, which went through their act with almost human intelligence and without a slip. An other pretty feature was the posing horses and dogs which in their snow white coats made many pretty pic lures. Still another which deserves special mention is the pony tha. ran on the revolving disk keeping bis foot ing with perfect ease when if seemed almost impossible that any animal could make his feet go so fast.
 The wild west show after th3 main performance was of a high order. The evening performance was largely at tended nearly every seat in the big tent being taken.
 The street parade in the morning was one of the best seen here in a long time.

WOMEN BUSY ON

To Issue Four Language Circulars De- seribins Methods of Food Conserva-

Circulars in four languages, de- scriptive of methods used in food con servation, are to be printed by the food committee of the women's divi- tributed throughout the state. This will be done at the expense of the food committee.
 The announcement was made at a meeting of the women's division by the food committee, who further an nounced that the committee was to arrange exhibits of canning apparatus in the stores of the smaller towns. There will also probably be demon strationS of canning.
 Mrs. Morgan G. -Bulkeley, chairman of the Liberty loan committee. report ed that some of the methods used in Connecticut during the recent drive were so successful that they would be adopted in other states in the ap- preaching campaign. Mrs. Bulkeley said the Liberty loan committee was arranging for the next local drive.
 A campaign to interest women to carry their own parcels has begun, according to the report of Mrs. E. W. w. Hayward of the Housewives league. This is in accordance with the wishes of the council of national defense, the state council of defense and the commercial economy bureau at Washington, which organizations have strongly urged retailers that ev- cry possible man must be released from their delivery departments
 Two organizations of the Camp Fire Girls have offered their services to the women's division. This matter was turned over to the food conservation committed The girls will probably be used in connectior with the registra- ton of women and with canning club activities.
 Miss Christine J Haas of Hartford was appointed on the committee on the protection of women workers
 Miss Elizabeth Hooker of New Ha- ven and Mrs. c. B. Buell. of East Hampton were appointed on the com mittee on conservation of existip g moral and spiritual forces of the na- tiOn
