kAISER'S YACHT

Incidents described in few words by the
Ambassador have turned out to be extraordinary
scenic subjects, and full advantage is taken Of
them on the screen. For example, one Of the most
dramatic moments in history occurred thirty days
before the war at Kiel week. MIR. Gerard stood
on the deck Of the imperial yacht while the Kaiser
stood beside him and watched the entrance Of the
British feet for friendly celebration.
The Kaiser knows that within month that feet
would be all that stood between him and world
dominion.
That evening there was dinner to the admirals

of the British feet. The Kaiser could not bring
himself to attend. It was his brother, Prince
Henry who closed with toast to his visitors, An
which he said, "We are sorry you are leaving and
sorry you came"
This untactful remark was put down by the
British az slip Of the tongue. It was fraugha
with meaning.
Another dramatic incident in the Aim Ia the pro
posal by Hollweg, the Chancellor, to Sir Edward
Goschen that England stand neutral while France
was robbed Of her colonies and the neutrality Of
Belgium violated.

BETTER THAN CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets are
Harmless Substitute.

DR.. Edwards Olive Tabiets-the substi-
tute for calomel - are a mild but sure
laxative, and their effect on the liver is
almost instantaneous. They are the result
of DR.. Edwards determination not to treat
liver and bowel complaints with calomel.
His efforts to Danish it brought out these
little o~live-colored tablets
These pleasant little tablets do the good
that calomeI does but have no bad after
effects. They don't injure the teeth like
strong liquids or calomel. They take hold
of the trouble and quickly correct il. Why
cure the liver at the expense OF n teeth9
Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the
gums. So do strong liquids. 1t is best not
to take calomel, but to let Dr. EoWaros'
Olive Tablets take its place.
Most headaches, "dullness" and that
lazy feeling come from constipation and
a disordered liver. Take DIR. Edwards
Olive Tablets when you feel 'loggy" and
heavy" Note how they 'clear" clouded

VERNON STILES AT

Camp Devens Musical Leader Appears Before Slater Hall. Audience.

At the concert Friday evening in Slater hall the Bass Clef sang to a. crowded house, the audience being particularly enthusiastic and respon- sive. The club under the leadership of Charles D. Geer presented an un- usually interesting program, much of it being of a patriotic nature. Those who have followed the progress of the Bass Clef from year to year most note the great stride taken each season and the finished work of last evening de- notes a high degree of perfection only gained by close attention to detail and
 unrenaitting work on the part of both club and director. The ensemble was extremely good, the attacks assured and in perfect unison. The patriotic | songs were well selected and well sung, and the camp songs spirited and full of life. I've negro songs were unusual and very enjoyable, in one,

MAR SAVINGS COMMITTEE
 EsTAHLIsIiae AGENCIES s
For Sale of Thrift and War Savings Stamps-Reliexed That Norwich Will Not Be Lax in Responsibilities.

The local war savings committee makes the following appeal to the people of this vicinity: I Are you willing to take an agency for the sale of U. s. government thrift
 stamps and war savings certificates? These stamps must be sold in Con
 necticut by Jan. 1, 1919, to the extent
 of S26, ,o09,00O per capita for the twelve months of this year. This is con- siderable sum of nloney, but the be- ! lief Is expressed that our community will not be lax in it's responsibility and that our allotment will 9be raised without serious difficulty.
 The cost of these stamps repre- sents 8 saving, not contribution. The
 man who buys them buys /tlie best security in the world, pledged by the
 word of the United States government. If war savings stamps are held for five years they will yield a { per cent. fineome, comRuunded quarterly, and
 guaranteed by the government. They are, unlike most securities, free from taxation .; 4sa N
 These war, savings certificates may be- disposed of at any time before their maturity, with 8 per cent added t They may be turned in at any time I desired and the interest received
 There is no possibility of a decrease 1T value, as the government makes a ta- bic of specified amounts at which j will redeem them at any time before
 their maturity.
 Now let us take up the question O the sale of these stamps by yourself F It is your duty as a patriotic eiti zen to sell them.
 It is also your duty to use you place of business as a location to sel them. ., e.,ssa, I
 I It is your duty to advertise them to urge their. sale; to devote a gred II amount of your energy toward sellin them to your friends and patrons. It is our war just as much as
 is that of the. boys who are in tn 2 trenches or who are in training. Tn { government can take us to fight :. necessary, and it may yet be neeessar II to do so.
 . E Under the ruling of the treasur fl department you must furnish you 1 own capital for selling these stamp $ A few dollars worth should be suSi : elent. They are readily obtainable a ] any postoffice,. or from your bank o We expect to establish an agenc
