 Miss Olson, a Newburyport war worker, revealed last night that she and Beatman were married in a St. Valentines day ceremony by the Rev.

 A wilted bridal bouquet found at Boston's South Station few days after their scheduled Jan. 9 wed- ding started a widespread police search for Beatman which ended a week later when he reported to army authorities in New York.

which flows into the Naugatuck a mile or so north of Waterville.
 The Thames river project entails series of seven dams - four small ones or tributaries of the stream in Massachusetts and three larger ones in northeastern Connecticut.
 Several years ago Army engineers developed plans for flood control in the Naugatuck river which en- tailed a large dam near Thomaston. However, the present plan is quite different. Speculation on what it would involve brought comments that it might result in the aban- donment of the Greystone road, now in heavy use as shortcut between Waterbury and Terryville, as well as possible relocation of Ehe tracks of the Highland Division of the N. Y, N. H., and H. R. R., which pass through the region drained by Lead Mine Brook.
 Local officials are not particularly concerned with the plans for the reservoir, although several years ago flood control throughout the Nau- gatuck Valley was pertinent topic both locally and in other communi- ties where considerable damage had been caused by spring freshets.

Noweveryone knows that to get the good out of the food you eAt-you must digest it properly. But what most people don't know is that Nature must produce about two pints of the digestive juice-liver bile-eaeh day to help digest your food. If Nature fails-your food may remain undigested-lie sour and heavy in your digestive tract.
 Thus, it is simple to see that one way to aid digestion is to increase the flow of liver bile. Now, Carter's Little Liver Pills start to increase this flow quickly for thousands-ofteni in as little as thirty minutes. When bile flow increases, your digestion may improve. And, soon you're on the road to feeling better-which ia what you're after.
 Don't depend on artificial aids to coun- tefact indigestion-when Carter's aid digestion after Natures own order, when taken as directed. Get Carter's Little Liver Pills today-at any drugstore only 25t. You will be glad you did.
