IF THIN AND
NERVOUS, TRY
PHOSPHATE

French scientist has discovered
an organic phosphate which should
be a very effective remedy for weak
nerves, sleeplessness, thinness and
lack of strength, energy and yigor.
Its substance is described by spe-
cialists as identical in composition
with certain vital elements naturally
found in brain and nerve cells and
one which when taken into the hui
man system is quickly converted into
healthy living tissue.
This phosphate is already widely
known among druggists in this coun-
try as Bitro-Phosphate, and some
physicians claim that through it's use
strength, energy, vigor and nerve
force are frequently increased in two
weeks time
DIR. Frederick Ko1le, editor of New
York physicians Who's Who" says
1t should be prescribed by every doc
tor and used in every hospital in the
United States. AS there are a great
variety Of so-calIed phosphates, those
who wish to test this substance
should be sure to get the genuine
Phosphate.

BONAPARTE, Oct. 28.--A basket
ball team of girls and also boys team
from Douds played the first game OF
basket ball that was ever played in

played In the Rees hall. which is now
owned by w S. and A. v. Blackford,

teams did not expect to win, but they
had a fine time and got some good
experience. Following is the lineup
of the two girl teams, the score being
35 to in favor of the Douds girls:

Little Definite News on German
 Statement
(By the Associated Press)

Germany today made formal reply to the treaty term presented to her on May [. While not as vouminOus as recent reports have led the world to expect, the German counter proposals appear to take issue with the Allies on nearly all the important phases of the treaty, according to summaries re- ceived from Berlin and Paris.
 Imme ediately after the presentation of Germany's reply. Count von Brock dorff- Rantzau, chief of the enemy peace mission, will, according to re- port, leave Paris for Spa. Whether his departure will mark his retire ment as a member of the German peace mission is not known. Several minor members of the German mis- sion left Paris for Germany yesterday.
 This afternoon a plenary session of the peace conference will be held for the purpose of communicating to the nations which broke relations with Austria the peace terms which the council of four has decided to present to the representatives of the former dual empire. There is as vet some doubt as to the subject matter of the terms reports indicating that the reparation clauses will be presented at a later meeting.
 Dispatches from Paris indicate an agreement by the council of four oil questions relative to the Adriatic and the city of Plume. That city, accord ing to the latest reports, is to be an independent municipality. Regarding the other arrangements it is stated certain of the Damatan islands are to go to Italy but it is understood she will not get the Adriatic ports of Zara and Sebenco.
 The Vatican is represented officially at Paris for the first time since the peace conference began work. Mon- signor Cerretti, Papal under-secretary of state, being in the city to discuss with Entente chiefs the status of Catholic missions in lands affected by the deliberations of the conference. It is improbable 1t is said that he will he officially received by the conference because of the clause in the treaty of London, between Great Britain, France and Italy which barred the Vatican from participa ton in discus sions regarding questions connected with the war

PlainVille Loses One Of Its Oldest
 and Best Known Residents
SPECIAL MEETING TUESDAY
Citizens Will Meet to Discuss Ice Sit uation-Business Enterprises h. creasing-TomOrrow Program- Other News Items of Interest.

plainville lost one of it's oldest and best known women residents this morning by the death of Mrs. Jane Lewis Bull at the homo of her son. pr. J. N. Bull, of Whiting street. Mrs. Bull had been ailing for some time and death was due to a complication of diseases. She was S4 years and six months of age and was born in Southington. The early part of her life was spent in that town. She has been a resident of this town for the past Is years, living with pr. and Mrs. Bull. For some time she was most active and known by many of the older residents as an active worker. She was a life long member of the Southinston Congregational church and was active in the work of the church until failing health caused her cessation.
 The funeral will be held on Satur- day afternoon at o'clock from the home. Rev. F.. C. Gillette will officiate and burial will be in the family plot In Oak Hill cemetery, Southington.
 Special Town Meeti".
 The selectimen have issued a call for a special town meeting to be held ueSddA e\e1tIS dI clock. The purpose of this special meeting is to listen to the report of the committee organized by the Plainville Business and Improvement aSsOciatio to secure a supply of ice for this town to be used during the coming summer. Any action that may seem best in connec- ton with the town assuming re- sponsibility for this ice and as to the manner of handling it during the summer will be proper to come before the meeting.
 During the past winter the ponds in this town did not freeze solid fer the needs of the community dur ing the summer. Because of that fact several carloads of ice contain ing many thousands of pounds of the commodity were brought and shipped here from the north. The ice was un- loaded from tlfe cars at the Trum- bull siding and was stored in the Hart ice houses where it is at present. The disposition of the ice will be left to the voters. It is probable that a mo- tion will be. passed to have the ice paid for by the town and have it's disposition referred to a committee representative of the citizens The ice can be sold as a municipal pro- duct, which would be new step of progress on the part of the town or 1t might be sold to some ice dealer who would bid a good price for it. If the town assumes the care of the sale of the ice it is probable that it

Institutions in this country which now have been invited to bid on the meat were selected, it was said, because their requirements are sufficiently large to permit them to purchase in carload lots.
 While it is the desire of the war department to dispose of all it's sur- plus foodstuffs in the United States said an official statement, mot being equipped to conduct a retail business the department must seek purchasers who can buy in sufficiently large quan- titles to enable it to make sales through the organization it has cre- ated to dispose of surplus stocks"
 The canned meat is stored in ten great warehouses located in eastern and midWestern cities.
