COMMUNICATED
Object to Mayors Action

Editor New Britain Herald:
1t certainly was disgusting to read
about the conduct of our mayor at
yesterdays election. Instead of COM
mending the officer for doing his
duty when ejecting him from the
voting place. where he appears to
have been lettering. and he knows
well that it is not permitted, he re-
turns a second time, whereupon he
was again elected.
This naturally irritated His Hon.
or. SO he complained to the chief,
who, 1t seems. instead of taking the
officer away, should have backed
him up.
Or does not the law regarding loi-
tering at voting places apply equally
to all of us?

prescription was first placed on the
market.
The preparation immediately had
as great a success in the drug stores

 PARIS, Feb. 2-The makeup box and its use and abuse on two sides of the Atlantic each year decides the profit and loss of many fabric manufacturers, as we'll as dressmakers. says an an alytical style creator.
 Because American women dv not make up extensively for the daytime they are unable to wear some of the colors French wo- men and French fashion-trades specialize in. Difficult greens, mauve and flat yellows, all of them colors about which Paris seems to be meditating more or less seriously for spring promo tion, may be among the most sue cessful of the new colors in Paris. but they will have only a limited sale on the other side of the At 'lantic, says the specialist.
