HEAR TWO SHARP POLITICAL ADDRESSES

An attempt by the Connecticut Woman's Suffrage association to se- cure non -partisan discussion of the merits of the republican mad demo- cratic parties resulted in sharp poiit- ica1 addresses at the convention dinner at New Haven on Thursday night, when Homer S. Cumn1irgs. acting chairman of the democratic national committee, and John T. King, Con- neeticut national republican commit teeman, were the principal speakers.
 MT. Cummings declared the demo- cratic party has a just claim to the support of the suffragi gists. He assail- ed the two republican senators from Connecticut as ''reactionary and ap- parently proud of it. He called Pres ident Wilson the leading figure in the world, and said the voices raised against him are those of the "Prus- sians of America
 Referring to Colonel Roosevelt, Mr. Cummings described him as the "bloodless warrior of the war"
 Mir. King called Colonel Roosevelt the leader of the republican party" He said the test of leadership is found in the sincerity of the leaders and as- serted that MT Wilson was insincere in his endorsement of the suffrage cause. He dwelt at length on the tariff question.
 Other speakers were Mrs. Arthur L; Liyermore of New York and Miss Caroline Ruutz- Rees of Greenwich, Miss Katherine Ludington and Mrs. Henry Townshend welcomed the dele gates to the city at the opening ses- sion of the convention. Mrs. Grace Thompson Seton, in a military blue uniform, her custeme as member of the Bienetre do Blese society, made the. response.

Physicians claim there is nothing that will supply this de- ficiency so well as the organic phos- phate known among druggists as bitro- phosphate, which is inexpensive and is sold by. Lee & osgood and all good druggists under a guarantee of satis- faction or money back. By feeding the nerves directly and by supplying the body cells with the necessary phos- phorfc food elements, bitro- phosphate quickly produces a welcome trans formation in the appearance; the in crease in weight frequently being as tonishing.
