nent authorities be quoted at this time.
That every organ Of the human body
depends upon the glands for proper
functioning Is stated by DR.. Serge Vo-
Fonoff who has devoted years of study
and experiment to Organotherapy. 1t
, Is Dr. Voronoffs opinion that the
brain. the nerves, the muscles, as well
as the liver, the kidneys and all other
organs would be incapable of playfn g
any useful part without the aid of the
glands. The functloning of our organs

tivity of glands, and when the

not in the condition OF the organ itself.
but in the condition of the gland which
controls it.
Glands that function perfectly are
responsible for desired qualities which
should exist in every normal man or
woman.
This il the opinion of an eminent
American surgeon, who states that the
courage of the soldier ana the charm
Of the vivaciouS woman are largely de-
pendent upon the activity Of the thy
Poid gland.
Glands which have become inactive
or weakened should be nourisbed In or
der that they may supply the blood

Pennsylvania R. R. Co. versus Mr..
George A. Atkinson, Of Port De-
posit, was decided last week in the
Hartford County Circuit Court when
a verdict was handed down in favor
of Atkinson. .s,
The case dates back to more than
year ago when Atkinson had a.
road contract in Hartford county.
The railroad claimed damages of
$S76, account of demurrage charges
on twenty-eight carloads of stone
which they claimed were not unload
ed until two weeks after the ar

placing the cars in positions ac,
cesssible for unloading.

Cecil county for the past three
months resulted in Mrs. Weigele

divorce and some months after Mrs.
Weigele married again thinking she
was single. Five years later she
learned that her former husband
had not gotten his divorce and that
sne was married to two men. In
order to straighten out the tangle
she left her second husband for the
Time being and brought suit for
dVorce against her first husband.
lnls the court granted. Upon the
granting of the same Mrs. Weigele
at once married her second husband
over again in order to validate the
former ceremony.

secretary and treasurer of the Elk.
ton Development Company, was tried
in the/ Hartford County Court
charged with obtaining $1,000 from
the First National Bank Of Havre de
Grace, by false pretense.

the sale by the Elkton Development
Company of a mill property in Elk
ton to the A. J. Reach Co., for
$500, the Deibert Brothers having
borrowed !. money from the First
National Bank of Havre de Grace
and the National Bank of Elkton,
