DANIEL.SoN

It would appear that the cynics are legion 4n the town of Killingly. What will 1t all amount to? This is a uues- uon that news writer is supposed to answer a hundred or more times a day out of some superior wisdom he does not possess. And 1t is all about Ku- lingly's politics and the entrance of a third party into the combat arena
 News writers are not usually con cerned about the why's or wherefores of any situation. What they are after is facts It is interesting, however, to. sit In a front seat on the observation plat form and ligten to the pros and cons on any situation or subject. At present local politics is the live issue in Kill lingly.
 The voters are talking on this sub ject and asking questions and making forecasts in manner to rival a weather prophet. If one group is to be credited with knowing what is what Killingly wants a chance. If another group of equally well informed people is to have consideration for its opinions, the whole proposition Is moonshine, an other evidence of nationwide unrest and dissatisfaction over one thing or another. One man Thursday was firm ly convinced that the present political agitation will result chiefly in one thing "a walk-over for republican candidates ln the town election and the disruption of what remains here of the democratic party. On the other hand, a well known democrat says that even if this hap pens 1t will be a good thing for the democratic party if control of that par ly passes into hands that will command Tor it more respect than has been gen orally accorded it by the rank ana file of voters in Killingly during the past decade. There is no accounting for opinions and no attempt Is made to do DO here.
 The writer was privileged to inspect Thursday a tentative list of candidates to be nominated at the citizens party caucus Saturday. The slate may be subject to changes, so is not reproduced here. However, it may be stated with out any violation of confidence that ii includes the names of well known re- publicans and democrats, some already nllinE town offices.
 The usual procedure is being followed as to caucusing. The republicans are allowed to step off and name their can nidGtes, and they will do it tonight. The democrats and the citizens tickets vii be named at caucuses scheduled fol Saturday, when advantage may be taken of any supposed errors the re- publicans make in filling their ticket.
 The three tickets will be complete by

HEALTH THE SECRET OF
 ATTRACTION

Women of today depend good deal upon the m05=En modiste and a know ledge of the cosmetic art to make them attractive. Too often there ex- fists beneath it all a suffering woman whose nervous laugh or forced smile covers a pang of agony caused by some feminine i'll. To such a woman Lydia E. Pingham's Vegetable Compound will bring health and happy relief from her suffering. that will make her far more attractive than costly gowns and cosmetics.
 For nearly fifty years American wo- men have relied upon this root and herb medicine to relieve their ailments.

nothing in the outside news to ac-
count for the rather sharp reaction
that occurred on the curb ex-

An accumulation Of selling or

a time but joined in the downward
movement when weakness devel-

onlys slightly changed.
Mammoth Oil company, class A,
among the Independent oils, was
an exception to the general ten
dency. 1t was in active demand at
substantially higher prices. Mu-
tual Oil came in for more atten-
ton as the result of the bringing
in of well last week.
Mesabi Iron among the miscel-
laneous isues, lost fractionally. 1t
was reported that the contracts
will keep the plant working at an
increasing capacity we'll into the.

somewhat. 1t is expected that one
