ASSOLANT'S WIFE
 MAY ENTER REVUE
AViator's Estranged Mate Weeps
 When Questioned

Paris, Aug. 14 UP)-Madame Jean Assolent, the former New York chorus girl, Pauline Parker, has been offered the lead in Paris revue at the Casino de Paris it was learned today. Harry Pilcer, who is at pres ent starring in the revue, offered Mme Assolant a contract to replace the French star now holding the role.
 Mme. Assolant when seen in her modest Latin quarter boarding house, burst into tears and would neither discuss the reports of es- trangement from her famous aviator husband, pilot of the French trans atlantic plan "Yellow Bird" nor the proffered theatrical engagement. However, she said that she was in communication with her husband, having received letters from him at the various halts in his European tour. The last one she received was from Madrid, she said.
 Papers for the divorce are now in process of preparation and will | be filed probably within a month. II is learned on best authority that As | solant claimed his American wife insisted on living in a style beyond his means. Mme. Assolant counter ed by saying that all she wanted was to live a modest home life. Her hus- band, she said, during the early days of her stay in Paris, stayed out each night until early hours of the morning. She called attention to the fact that she was content to live in modest boarding house.

MIR. NJ. D. WOODWARD Tone Representative

It seems that there are some skep- tics and doubting Thomases who are astounded at the vast amounv of testimonials for Bon-Tone that are used day after day in the local papers. And to these skeptics and doubting Thomases comes the thought-"Aw, they are paid for" Eanish the thought! Bon-Tone will gladly pay to any charitable institu- ton in this city. $1,000, if it can be proved that there has been paid a single cent for any testimonial we use. Bon-Tone's success is due sole- ly to its merit and the many grate- full users of this supreme medicine who have come forward with word of praise so that others who are suf- fering as they did, may know about Bon-Tone and enjoy the full measure of life, as they are doing now. Yet 1t is not strange that Bon-Tone should triumph when all other rem edies have failed-for Bon-Tone is really Mother Natures own remedy made from fourteen of the purest roots, leaves, barks and berries that are obtainable. It may be expected to bring results for ailments arising from certain disorders of the stom- ach, liver, kidneys and bowels and for rheumatism, neuritis and nerv- ousness. We have placed out rep resentative in New Britain at Miller x HansonS Drug store, 30 Church street, where he will be only too glad to show you the remarkable tri- umphs over half-sick, depressed and discouraged men and women right here in your own city. He will not make any promises for Bon-Tone-- he doesn't need to as the record oi Eon-Tone has been built up on deeds, not idle words or promises. Sufferers want results ard Bon-Tone has scored time after time for the sick, ailing and discouraged. Is it not wise to profit by the experiences of others? Then read every word of this statement from Mrs. A. NJ.

K|WAN|ANS HEAR ADVERTISING TALK
Pulling Power Depends Upon
 Way They Are Directed

That money spent on advertising is wasted unless properly directed Was the general theme fan address given by Cyrus Stevens. advertising and publicity manager for the Phoenix Mutual Life Insurance Co.,, of Hartford, at the regular weekly luncheon of the KiWanis club at the Burritt hotel today.
 Mr. Stevens spoke mainly on the subject of national advertising but interjeCted some of the facts he has learned in his work in connection with local newspaper advertising.
 He pointed out to the kiwanians that no advertising will sell a com modify or a service very long if that commodity or service has noth- ing to recommend it. He explained that q man must be able to back up his advertising with the particular thing he has to sell, that the product must be good or advertising will not help it.
 He said no product can be sold 'iN'i'''' 't't 'lFNlllS, put llldl tue dI- V"rtsing must be intelligently di- rcctcd. He exhibited many spcci- ments of advertising pointing out how one type of advertising drew more business than another, because of the appeal it carried. Each ad in this case sold the same commodi- ty.
 He stated that one man may get more for his advertising money in local newspapers than another. but said this was not the fault of the neWspa apcrs, but of the man and the way his advertising was handled. "A | lot depends on the man himself" he added
 Asked if he believed in repcatinp the same copy, Mr. Stevens replied: As long as it pulls business, why | discard it? l am very much a be- leVer in repeating copy. We some times run the same advertisement for a year and a half"
 MT. Stevens was introduced by Jo- seph NJ. Ward.

After the charge was changed from attempted rape to simple as- sault, Bronislaw ny Cobb" Guida 25 of 102 1-2 Gold street, was sen- tenced to 30 days in jail this morn- ing, following a conference between Judge William Mangan. attorney for Guida, and Assistant Prosecuting At torney William Greenstein.

 'The girls sister came into the house and screamed. Guida jumped out of the window.
 Judge Mangan and I have agreed that a charge of simple assault be entered, Realizing that the man was under the influence of liquor at the time of the attack, recommend that he be given a sentence of 30 days in jail"

NAVAL PARITY NOT
 PEACE GUARANTEE
Count Ella Says Equal Factory
 Strength Real Problem

Williamstown, Mass, Aug. 14 P(- The world is approaching the prob- lem of disarmament from the wrong direction in attempting 10 reach the solution through naval parity, Count Giovani Ella of Rome, Italian naval expert and inventor of a depth bomb, told members of the Institute of Politics today.
 Parity of Factories
 Parity of factories producing arm aments is the essential factor to be considered, he declared Tt is ne cossary to do everything possible to avoid a new war and naval disarm- ament tends toward this end,' he said. "but to talk of naval parity is absurd, for naval parity means Eothing whatsoever.
 "The idea of establishing an ab- sClutc naval parity is unattainahle I am convinced, for even if the fleets of Great Britain and the United States should be made abso- lutely equal, there would still re- main the vastly superior industrial power. and the unassaila bla geo. graphical position of the United States.
 Even if the two great fleets or Great Britain and the United states should reach parity. some new in- vention might be perfected at any moment which would destroy the whole arrangement.
 United States Could Build Quickly
 'If war should come the United States could build cruisers so much more rapidly than Great Britain tha. any existing parity would be quict- l ly oyerbalanced. The United States | within an exceedingly short time, could bring a fleet of cruisers into | teing which could sweep the British cargo boats from the seas, and starve her population; whereas she | herself is so large, and has such in in her own borders that she could | last indefinitely without ever send ing out a ship from her ports
 Parity of the factories, I am sure, is what really counts today, and on this basis the United States has so great q superiority that she | is, in effect, supreme"
 Young Discusses Changes | George Young. labor member of the British parliament discussing post war constitutional changes in l Europe, said that the strength of the Soviet union lies in the indc- pcndcnce which it has granted to surrounding minority countries and it's own states.
 "The czarists of the old Russian empire ruled by the repression ot every other race and religion from the Poles. Let's and Films in the west to the Georgians, Tartars and UlSranians in the east" he said.
 The communists, he continued. be- lieVed that ring of independent nations was the best protection fol their new regime against invasion and intervention from the west, anC had not grudged independence tc the Poles, Films and Letts."
 Grant Self Government
 In dealing with their states Inc maintained. the communists hat acted on the principle that self gov, ornmont need not lead 10 secession provided the new -govcrnins states accepted and applied the so. cialist system that cemented tho union together. They had therefor, felt that they could grant not only

N FF the coast of Australia the
 warm sea is studded with
 islands, palm. fringed. lazy. numerous as stars. Some of these are known only to island trading schoon. CTS, and in their unexplored interior tribes live in prehistoric savagery. The Dutch New Guinea group harbors many such tribes, whose customs have remained unchanged for countless generations.
 Elinor Mordaunt, charming English author, heard of these mysterious primeval races. She resolved to go and observe them, to brave dangers that hardy seamen shrank from, in order to fill her notebooks with atmos- pheric literary material.
 She went, with her young son, and . succession of adventures befell her that throw into shadow the tale of "She," H. Rider Haggard's imaginative account of . lovely girl ruler of an unknown race. For Elinor was not only crowned "lady king" of a tribe of fierce cannibals. but actually ruled them over period of months.
 It was not easy to gain access to the lovely but forebodng island fastnesses. Staid Dutch officials were reluctant to see an attractive and talented young woman risk, together with her son, un- speakable dangers. They knew that the stories of head-hunting warriors, of naked savages indulging in feasts of human flesh, in sensuous and indescrib- able orgies, were not idle rumor.
 But Mrs. Mordaunt persisted. She and her son at last set out among the islands. For weeks they visited little-known shores, met many natives But this was far too tame for the ad. venturous Elinor; she wanted more pungent adventures. Her publishers, while naturally eager for fresh and "exclusive" copy from the typewriter of the gifted lady. had implored her not to take unnecessary risks. The venturesome Elinor paid not the slight
