A DISCOVERY THAT
 BENEFITS MANKIND

Two discoveries have added greatly to human welfare. .... ~
 In 1885 Newton originated the vac- uum process for condensing milk with cane sugar to a semi-liquid form.
 In 1883 Horlick at Racine, Wis.,, dis covered how to reduce milk to a dry poncder form with extract of matted grains, zcithout cane sugar.
 This product HoRLIck named Matted Milk. (Name since copied by others.) It's nutritive value, digestibility and ease of preparation (by simply stirring in water) and the fact that it keeps in any climate, has proved of much value to mankind as an ideal food-drink from infancy to old age. - Ask for noRllcKs-AvoId umft.tlens 5

A special town meeting has been called for Monday evening by the board of selectmen to take action on the matter of reconstructing the East Berlin road as provided for in Chap te> 307 of the PublicS Acts of the State" It is, now possible to have this road built if the town will avail itself of the opportunity now at hand. It is upon the advice and request of Highway. Commissioner Bennett that the town: avail itself of the special ap- propriation for the construction of connecting links that this special town me eeting is being called. Senator Claude w: Stevens in company with Ernest Mildrum, W. I. filling, A. A. North, Francis Deming, Oscar Benson and L.:tA. Westcott waited upon MT. Bennett last onday, and were advised ty him that the East. Berlin road could now be fixed under the special appropriation. The commissions CT stated that he had had a number of complaints registered at his office in regard to this road and he would like to see the road fixed up imm ediately as 1t was a trunk line. A great deal of credit is due to Senator Stevens, who discovered that the road could be constructed under chapter 307. He immediately got in touch with Ernest Mildrum and upon the advice of MT. Bennett started the ball rolling for a new highway.
 There is nothing to prevent the starting of construction on the new road as soon as the special town meeting passes on it as the state is ~Ix the measure. The road has been ;t discfedit to the entire town for years and complaints have been registered with the missioner about it for a long time and no one would like to see D new road there any more than he would The entire town, it Is stated Ho;l1G benefit by the new highway as every autom obilist in the town has to 20 over the road more or less, IS it is a tripnk line to MiddletoWn and New London. On the petition calling for the special town meeting there are r names from the three districts which shows that the move has the endorse nnent of the entire town.
 The outstanding feature in the con- struction of this road is that the town will not have to pay a cent for the building of the road until it has been entirely completed and then the cost to the town will be one-duarter of the total cost. This is much to be pre- ferred over the other system which provides that the town put up their money at the beginning of the con- struction. Under the new act the town will not have to pay out a cent until the completion of the contract. ThAs will give the town ample time to : raise it's share of the cost, giving it

Truckers Threaten to
Feed Corn to Swine

Gettysburg, Pa, Aug. 12.-While
housekeepers and wage earners are
complaing of the high cost of living
truckers who attend the curb mar
ket are strong in their belief they
will not sell their goods except for
a good price. In other years sweet
corn sold as low as ten and twelve
cents a dozen ears. This year the
price has remained at 20 cents. The
truckers say unless they can get
this price they will feed it to, their
pigs. The high price which yellow
or field corn commands in the mar
ket influences the growers in the
price they ask for the sweet variety.
One of the market men said:
with yellow corn selling at the
price 1t is I believe it is to my ad-
vantage to feed sweet corn as soon
as I have to take less than 20 cents
for it. Pigs like the sweet corn
better than the yellow. They eat
the husks and appear to thrive on
them" This opinion is held by al
most every market man.

U. 5. Flag, Flown by English
Premier, Waves in St. Marys

st. Marys, Pa. Aug. IA large
American flag which flies in front of
the residence of Lieutenant Harry
Conrad, of st. Marys, is attracting
considerable attention in the Summit
town, for it is none other than the
flag which flew gaily in front of the
residence of Premier Lloyd George
when the United States declared war
on Germany and graced the front of
the London mansion thereafter.
Lieutenant Conrad was in London
the night the armistice was signed
and the city went mad with joy. The
st. Marys man was in front of the
residence of Lloyd George and a
British sergeant was given the flag
by Mrs Lloyd George and a parade
was started. Lieutenant Conrad ask
