A THREE DAYS
 COUCH |S YOUR .
 DANGER SIGNAL

Persistent coughs and colds lead to serious trouble. You can stop them now with Creomulsion, an emulsifed creosotc that is pleasant to take. Creo- mulsion is a new medical discovery with two-fold action; it soothes and heals the inhamed membranes and in- hibits germ growth.
 Of all known drugs, creosote is rec- ognized by high medical authorities as one of the greatest healing agencies for persistent coughs and colds and other forms of throat troubles. CreomuIsion contains, in addition to creosote, other healing elements which soothe and heal the infected membranes and stop the irritation and inflammation, while the creosote goes on to the stomach, is ab. sorbed into the blood, attacks the seat of the trouble and cheeks the growth of the germs.
 Creomulsion is guaranteed satisfac- !, tory Tn the treatment of persistent coughs and colds, bronchial asthma, bronchitis and other forms of respira- tory diseases, and is excellent for build ing up the system after colds or flu. Money refunded if any cough or cold is not relieved after taking according to directions. Ask your druggist, (adv.)

Officer Feeney testified that Wit tall left an automobile battery at the O'Neil Tire and Battery Co. to be recharged and was given a rem tai battery. on May IS.
 He then took the rental battery 10 the P. and |. Battery Co. at 265 Myrtle street and was given another one which he took to Holyoke, Mass. The officer testified that Vittali said he has experienced financial and domestic trouble and feared to return to the O'Neil Tire and Battery company.
 Prosecuting Attorney Woods said there was no question of the mans i'll luck. His home has been broken Up and his three children are in an institution.
 This does not relieve him of his guilt, however.
 Justice Roche said it must be understood that the law under which this prosecution was brought must be respected. He found Wit tail guilty and fined him s15 and costs but because it is the first prosecution and also in view of his trouble and the attendant worry he suspended execution of the sentence with a warning.
 Prosecuting Attorney Woods said he wanted it understood that per- sons w'ro mako a practice of de- traudlng battery station proprietors in this manner will be dealt with severely in the future. The O'Neil Tire and Battery Go. alone has $500 worth of batteries out and cannot locate them.

Portsmouth. R. l., Oct. 2S P-A move has been made toward settling the estate of Reginald c.

Tormay was so drunk he did not know who was driving the car. but when the prosecuting attorney pressed him, of course he said Hudak was driving, the lawyer said. Parsons was an admitted liar, the attorney said, and he was a s 'e's witness.
 "The state comes in here and tries to bolster up a weak case with a lot of drunken witnesses" the attorney said. How can your honor believe any of them?
 And if you lnnot believe them you cannot convict Hudak. And if there is reasonable doubt in your honor's mind, you must discharge him. The state Of Connecticut has fallen down woefully in this case"
 Mir. Woods, in rebuttal, character ized HUdak as 'slick liar" He and hls companions tried 10 frame Dyson, a poor colored man, but I cont believe your honor will stand for it."
 T don't care whether these men were. drunk or not or what story they told in MT. Sexton's office. They told the truth this morning and Hpiak is as guilty as any man who has ger been in this court on this charge"
 Justice Roche said it was signif- cant that Hudak could remember everything so clearly this morning despite his intoxicated condition at the time of the accident.
 He believed Hudak was driving at the time of the accident and imposed a fine of S100 and costs. Bonds of $2OO were fixed for an appeal.
