GEORGE H. BRADFORD REMAINS
 AS MOTOR VEHICLE INSPECTOR

George H. Bradford of Montville has been appointed a motor vehicle inspec- tor in the sre-organized state police de- partment. MT. Bradford held the office of motor vehicle inspector in the old state police department for some time past.
 Thirteen members of the old state police department and 25 of the pres ent motor vehicle, inspectors have been appointed special state policemen. These B men will hold temporary appoint ments on probation until the commits sion is prepared to make permanent se- lections. They are now designated spe- cial state policemen to obviate the nee essity of preferring charges, as required by statute, against regular state police men who are to be removed.
 Temporary subordinate officers will be appointed later and, as the commission found many of the 500 applications filed for places as state policemen unsatisfac' tory in various respects, it was decided to issue new form Of application blank. The authorized strength of thu reorganized department is 50 men.

An Easy Way For
 Thin People to Put on
 Flesh and Gain Weight
Strong, Straightforward Advice to Thin
 UndeveIoped Men and Women

If you are thin, scrawny and undevel oped, if your face is peaked and your cheeks and neck exhibit unsightly hol- lows, it's almost certain that your nerv- ous system is at the bottom of the trou- ble. You can eat three, yes four. substan- tial, fat-producing meals a day but as long as your stomach has an insufficient supply of nerve force this food you eat will pass out of the body with little if any benefit.
 In order to assimilate properly the nourishing food you eat and convert it into healthy tissue and fat the nerves that control the process of digestion and as similation must be put in first class shane and until that is done you might just as well quit trying to put on flesh Your ] turn the food you eat into healthy stay- l there flesh and it can only be done in one way--by correcting faulty nervous diges- | ton.
 Thin, nervous. rundown people, how ever, with impoverished blood and half starved looks are haifing with delight a | quick and certain maker of solid flesh called EVANS TRIPLE PHOSPHATES that is unequalled for repairing faulty digestion and correcting nervous digestive l troubles. In fact, the makers of Evans Triple Phesphates guarantee that one | months treatment will increase you1 l weight by several pounds and within fen days make you feel like a new being, fulI i of ambition, vigor Ind a desire to accom-. ! plish things.
