This Man Developed
 Arthritis While In Service
Pains Greatly Relieved-Gained Pounds an dDistress After Meals Vanished After Taking
 BOn-TOne

member of the Corporal Coyle post and of the American Legion, Water bury, states:
 For several years I was troubled with constipation, and l had to be taking something for 1t all the time Then I began to have trouble with my stomach-my appetite wasn't so good, and had considerable trouble with gas. l would have a heavy feeling in my stomach most of the time, and bitter, sour taste in my mouth. While I was in service, arthritis set in; and l have suffered with that ever since. T heard so much about Bon- Tone that l decided there must be some thing to it. so I got some. Now, after having taken only five bottles of Bon n-Tone, l feel better in every way. My bowels are regular; my appetite is good; and 1 am not in such distress after eating. The ar thritic pains are much improved, and l have gained seven pounds. I think Bon-Tone is very good, and l am glad to tell others about it."
 The Bon Tone man is at Miller X Henson's 50 Church street, New Britain. Conn, where he is meeting the public and eNplaint-g the merits of this wonderful herbal remedy.

OPTIMISM GAINING,
 P.F. KING REPORTS
Stanley Works Official Makes
 Business Survey on Trip

That there is general feeling of ing prosperity throughout the coun- try was the observation of P. r. King, assistant secretary of the Stanley Works, on a recent trip throughout the western part of the United States
 MT. King left here March 6 and returned April 16. His journey took him to Denver, Colo: Salt Lake City, Utah; Spokane and Seattle, Wash j; Portland, Ore; San Francisco, Calif. Los Angeles, Calf; Fl Paso. Tex: Galveston, Tex, and New Or leans, La.
 In Denver and Salt Lake City the low price of silver and lead have affected industrial conditions mere than any other factor. A spirit of optimism prevails there and better conditions arc expected during the summer.
 In Spokane and Salt Lake City a recession in the lumber business left business stagnated, but the indus u ieAA iIduSio tilCiC lCCl HullC ldpPS over newspaper announcements of a proposed increase in the tariff on lumber.
 The entire section from Portlan l down to San Francisco and Los An geles, which has been suffering from d business reaction finds conditions improving and on the up grade.
 In Fl Paso, business seemed to be good, Mir. King reports There was quite a lot of building going on and q general air of prosperity prevail ed.
 Galveston and New Orleans re- hected the same conditions as the rest of the country, but sensed a change for the better.
 Throughout the entire trip Mr. King found that underlying the whole situation there was d general feeling of optimism and d belief that business is getting back to nor nal.
 Returning to the home plant he found that the past few weeks have shown an improvement in conditions at the Stanley Works.
 New $. W. Products
 The Stanley Works has put a number of new products on the market recently.
 Probably the most radical depart ure from the Stanley Works general line of hardware is q new commo- dity which will be retailed through gift shops. This is the Stanley combination card table trays and smokers sets.
 The set consists of two round trays, so constructed that they can be securely attached to alternate corners of a card table, a novel cigarette dispensing jar and four ash cups.
 The set is destined to become popular for bridge and other card parties inasmuch as it successfully dlsposes of the problem of serving refreshments as we'll as handlin, smokes and ash trays without clut- tering the card table. The outfit is made in many colors.
 Another article recently marketed by the Stanley Works is a line clamp. It is a small brass appliance which fastens on a rope and which tightens and removes all slack from clothes lines, tennis nets, tent ropes, boat lines or any rope, cord or wire of similar nature.

Charlotte, N. C., April 25 LP-A hit-and-run driver who reached to the side walk, seized a 14 year old girl by the arm and dashed her to death against the pavement was sought today by Charlotte police.
 The girl. Lillian Dorine Condon, was fatally injured last night as she was walking home with a friend, Gregory Walker, in a Charlotte su- burb. The two were walking along the side walk swinging hands, Miss Walker said.
 Suddenly, a speeding brown road ster swung up to the curb and an occupant reached out and caught Miss Condon by the arm. The girl was dragged several yards and thrown against the pavement. Her skull was fractured and she died d few minutes later.
 Miss Condon was a daughter of MT. and Mrs. J. L. Condon. Her mother recently left the city to ac- cept a position in the Skumgum sanatorium, Morristown, N. J. Mir. Condon and Lillian planned to leave Saturday to join her
