 To do any kind of work, or to play for that matter, is next to impossible if you are suffering from some form of female trouble. It may cause your back or your legs to ache, it may make you nerv ous and irritable. You may be able to keep up and around, but you do not feel good.
 Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Con- round is a medicine for women. It is especially adapted to relieve the cause of the trouble and then these annoying pains. aches and mo good" feelings disappear.
 It has done this for many, many wo- men: why ,ot give it fair trial-now.

 Legion Refuses Rooms
 At the recent meeting of the Brock Barnes post, the signing of the lease for a suite of rooms in the new Neri block on Central square did not satis- fy the members of the post and was not signed, therefore the Legion mem hers are still in their present quarters in the Grange hall and are seeking 2 new location.
 It is understood that clause in the lease did not come up to the expecta- tions of the post officials who refused flatly to sign the papers. The clause which did not satisfy them read to the effect that the lease would be void and the Legion forced to vacate thelr rooms at the slightest complaint of the tenants in the block if they see ample cause for any such complaints
 The post officials believe that the Legion members can handle them- selves we'll enough without any such clause and so told the owners Of the block. The clause stood nevertheless' and the proposition for a new neaa- quarters fell through. They were 10 have six rooms for $40 month

POLITICS ACTIVE
 IN NEXT FEW WEEKS
Town Meeting and Republican
 Caucus to Take Place Soon
SUNDAY IN THE CHURCHES
Church Meetings Next Week-Epi- demic of F1ies-Attend Newington Fair-Questions at Town Meeting Other Items.

Within the next few weeks the town will be in the throes of another political discussion, deciding whether Francis Deming or Arthur Benson shall be the republican candidate for representative to the state legislature. The field is now left open to those two men, as Claude Stevens, the third opponent, has dropped out of the race.
 The questions to be brought up at the town meeting, which is to be held in the town hall on the eighteenth of this month, are of vast importance to residents.
 The first question is the removal of the honor roll from in front of the town and placing permanent one near the monument, the permanent memorial to take the form of a tablet There are many in the town, it is said, who would vote for the removal of the present honor roll if they could permanent board of health, there be- affixed. The present honor roll Is far from an ornament, they claim, as it Is badly in need of paint. A bronze tablet would be an ornament to the town, as we'll as being practically in- destructible by weather conditions, they believe
 The question of forming a board of health in the town is another one to be taken up, discussed and voted upon at this time. Many feel that the town is now large enough to have a permanent boar dof health, there be- ing more work in that connection than one man can handle.
 The question of raising the salary of the first selectman, George B. Carter, also comes up. The work be- ing done by MT. Carter is extensive and employs a great deal of his time. For this reason the question of rais- ing his salary has been included in the business of the town meeting.
 The institution of speed rules, in, and about the. town is another mat ter of great importance, as it involves the safety of pedestrians, as well as autom ohile owners. The down grade running north on Berlin street is temptation to speedsters.
