STRICTER BAR EXAMS
Hereafter Students Will Not Be Permitted to Take Test After Test Until They Pass.

Bridgeport, July 19 tE9 - A new move to raise the standard of mem- bership in the Connecticut Bar asso- ciation Is contained in ruling Iadopted last month and just inserted lin the Connecticut practice book.
 It concerns the examinations talk en by students desirous of being ad mitted to the bar. doing away with the former practice of permitting a student to take, without restriction, examination after examination despite the number of failures against him in the past,
 The new ruling permits only two examinations and if an applicant failes to pass them both he may not take a third until a semi-annual ex- animation has intervened and he proves in the meanwhile that he has applied himself diligently to the study of law.

READ HERALD CLASSIFIED ADS

IL is not natural for children to be thin and scrawny. If they are well and healthy, they should be gaining weight right up to their twentieth year. ..
 Many children, however. with their young delicate digestive organs do not get from their daily food the vital elements of life itself-the inn portant vitamins and the organic salts of lime, iron and phosphorous.
 The son of George c. O'Brien of Mahwah. N. J., was thin and pale and did not get enough nourishment from his food. In little over two months he gained eleven and one half pounds and feels and looks one hundred per cent better. And what brought him back to sturdy strength was the new concentrated form of Cod Liver Extract known as Mc- Coys Cod Liver oil Compound Tab lets.
 Every physician and mother, too. knows that as body builder and appetite creator that nothing can compare with Cod Liver Extract.

The Elme- letter spoke of the writer coming to Philadelphia in few days and pay ing visit to Mrs. Van Alyston. T know better times are in store for you," the letter read.
