Antoine departed with a resentful
twist of the shoulders, and l decided
to meet squarely the matter of the
visitors who had so troubled him.

Where are those good hearted and
benevolent souls who insisted that we
would have no more wars-who pro-
phesied that the capitulation Of the
German army marked the doWnfall of
the sabre and the shell?
Each day it is becoming more evil
dent that the scotching of the kaiser
only served to bank the fires of war.
They are still smoldering, and the sur
face is getting hotter and hotter, and
the flames are breaking out in many
spots.
For many years we predicted and
waited for the explosion in Europe. 1t
came, suddenly and without warning,
and the population of the earth was
materially reduced. We did some of
the reducing.
We expect much from civilization.
We may get a little, for civilization,
it seems, is little more than name,
if we may Judge by what it has ac-
complished.

There are even many of us who have

get some of that back before handing
out more, or at least the interest on

The plain voter may decide to do a

may even think for himself, much as
the leaders secretly disapprove of such
a course,
In the past the p. V. hasn't done as
much thinking as he might. 1t hasn't
been necessary. Others have been
good and kind to him and have saved
him that trouble
But the p. V. is no longer in the pri-

right along and has about decided to

He feels that he has reached the
graduating stage and is entitled to do

breakfast.

you bathe outside. This is vastly more
important, because theskin pores do
not absorb impurities into the blood,
while the bowel pores do.
To keep these poisons and toxins
well flushed from the stomach, liver,
kidneys and bowels, drink before
breakfast each day. a glass of hot wat
er with a teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate in it. This will cleanse,
purify, and freshen the entire alimen-
tary tract before eating more food.
Get a quarter pound of limestone
phosphate from your pharmacist. 1t
is inexpensive and almost tasteless.
Drink phosphate hot water every
morning to rid your system of these
vile poisons and toxins; also TO pre-
vent their formation.

MAKES SALE OF SHORE LINE TRACkAGE

Receiver Robert W. Perkins of the Shore Line Electric Railway has effected a sale of the trackage of that portion of the road which the superior court gave him permission to abandon, which is the section from Flanders Corner westerly to New Haven including the Chester and Stony Creek branches.
 The purchaser is the United States Rail and Equipment Co. of Newburgh, New York. which buys the property as junk and will speedily start to tear up and remove the rails, which will eliminate the last hope of the residents of this section of the state that they might some day have restored to them the trolley service which they have been without since the road stopped operations there when the employees struck in July of last year.
 The sale. involves $S4o,0oo and has as one of it's conditions that the purchaser taking the rails shall restore the roads and highways where the rails are remoc- ed. A time limit of Jan. 1, 1921 has been set for the completion of the contract, but it is anticipated that the work will be finished long before then. It is under stood that the purchaser has already found customer for one lot of the rails and will sell off the balance in lots as other customers are found.

MISS SUZANNE GALLAUDET
 BEFORE WESTERLY POLICE

Miss Suzanne Gallaudet, whose father is Denison Galsaudet. formerly of Nor wich. head of the Gallaudet Aircraft company, at East Greenwich, with res idence near Wequetequock on the West y-Stonington road. was the operator of the touring car that crashed into. the automobile of J. s. Porteous of Middle town, Conn, on the. Watch Hill road on Wednesday morning. doing considerable damage to the Porteous car and injurinG Mrs Porteous and MT. Quinn, the three other occupants of the Porteous car es- caping injury The fender of the Gal laudet car was twisted but no other damage to that car resulted.
 Upon request of Police Chief Brown, Miss GalIaudet called at the police sta tion in Westerly, Thursday. She was told that Mr Porteous desired to be fair in the matter, had no intentions of seek ing damages for any personal injuries, to his car. Miss Gallaudet declared she was not at fault for the collision, there fore would not pay any damages.
 It was ascertained that while her car bore Connecticut registry plate 50.9S9, she had no license to operate. She said she had no Connecticut license but did have special Rhode Island license. The chief EScided to take no action until after consulta ton with Mir. Gallaudet- as the young lady did not seem to appre- ciate the seriousness of the offence.
 Miss Gallaudet will be arrested for operating an automobile without li- cense. It is probable the charge of reck- less driving will not be made. as it is expected that Mir Galaudet will settle damages with MT. PSrteous.
