TELEPHONE INCREASES IN CONNECTICUT. STOMACH TROUBLES Increasing. A Simple Remedy. It- has been said the body is like a machine and digestion and elimination of food are the two great factors to heaJth. It the digestive organs are weak, the stomach -overtaxed, waste matter accumulates in the system the liver gets sluggish and the blood becomes thin and devitalized.
We want to ask every person in this vicinity who is troubled with indigestion or a weak, wornout stomach to try our delicious cod liver and iron tonic, Vinol. We know it will strengthen and tone up the weakened, tired and overtaxed nerves of the digestive organs, create a hearty appetite, and replace weakness with strength. We just heard of a case of a man iu Portland, who suffered from a bad stomach trouble for years and had become so weak he could hardly walk who was built up by Vinol so he could eat heartily without the slightest distress. Try a bottle of Vinol and if it fails to help you we will give hack your money. Broadway Pharmacy.

The regular quarterly issue of the Southern New England Telephone company's directory will go into effect on Sunday, the 19th, and in con nection with this book it is interesting to know that the increase in in Connecticut since the first of UM year, the first quarter of 1914, has been 1,723. The telephone company esrjmates the increase forvthe entire year as 8,000, which will make the total number of telephones in use on Jan.
1, 1915, 119,219. On Dec. 31, 1904. the total number of telephones was If the 1914 figure is reached, it will mean a growth of 86.011 telephones in ten years, a growth nearly three times as great as the grand total in 1904. The preparation and distribution of the directory containing these telephones has now assumed considerable proportions, as may be seen from the following ligures supplied by the local management of the company.
The total- number of books issued will be 115,000, each book containing 600 pages not including the cover. It required six weeks to compile and print the issue. The number of changes from the January issue was over 12,000, and 12.1,000 thumb-cuts had to be made. The total number of pages in the isRiie was 69,000,000. If these were srpread flat they would cover approximately square feet.
The total weight of the issue is something over 87 tons. If these books were placed one on top of the other, a taper lower would rise 9,300 feet, or approximately one and eight-tenths of a mile, into the air. The base of this ffisantic sliver would cover 75 square 'nohes. There is probably no one thing that more graphically illustrates the growth of telephone service in this state than the telephone directory. And it will bo obvious, from the facts shown above, that it is something of a task to compile, print and distribute this book.

A Big Opportunity for the Ladiea! JM MA IT ST, Next to Chelaea Baak. Will Be Ready Probably June 1 Extent of Electric Operation.
In view of the interest manifested in the electrification of the Xew York, New Haven and Hartford lines between Xew York and Xew Haven, and the probable date of completion, the following can be said to summarize the situation as it now stands: So far as engineering and construction experience can indicate, the overhead contact and distribution system between Xew York and Xew Havfn, it is believed, will be completed by June 1. Electric freight, ipassenger and switching service can then be established between Xew York and Xew Haven. The extent of this service is dependent upon the electrical output of the power house at Cos Cob, Connecticut. Exaetis' to what extent trains will be operated by electricity upon the completion of the work now in pro gress it is difficult to state. The trains to be operated in this manner after that date will naturally toe arranged so as to secure the greatest electric movement consistent with the normal output of electricity from the Cos Cob station.
The original electrification of the Xew Haven road between Stamford and Wooulawn, begun in 1905 and completed in 1907, embraced 21 1-2 miles of route and 110 miles of single track. As the Xew York Central had the year previous electrified its track from the Grand Central station to tVoodlawn. where the junction with the Xew Haven tracks is made, a distance of 12 miles, this made the total route distance lor the Xew Haven's original electric service between the Grand Central station and Stamford one of 33 miles. The original electrification plant included, besides the overhead system, the power station at Cos Cab and 41 electric locomotives. This equipment was sufficient to permit of full electric passenger service between the Grand Central station and Stamford, where the transfer is made from steam to electric operation.
After a considerable experience with the electric service between these points it was decided to electrify the six track Harlem River con neeting Harlem river with the main line at Xew Rochelle, and subsequently to extend the electrification of the road east from Stamford to New Haven. In these plans the finai object in mind was the putting of all passenger, freight and switching service upon an electric basis. With this end iu view appropriations were made for an addition to the electrical out- i put of the Cos Cob station, for additions to the main line, yards and siding electrification and for additional locomotives of the freight and sitch- ing type. When these appropriation estimates were made, however, heavy expenditures were required elsewhere on the property. For this reason it became necessary at that time to forego the building of power plants required at the eastern and western extremities of 1 the rlectrificatlon none.
Tln increase made in the output of the Cos Cob power plant, as provided lor in these appropriations, would permit of a very large percentage of complete electric service as soon as the overhead contact and distribution svs-tom is ready. It will not, however, permit of ion per cent, of electric service until the eastern and western plants shall have been provided. Complete electric operation therefore will be delayed until suitable arrangements for additional power and electric lo-enmrtivp? can be obtained. When this will he (le'if-iuls on the general finan cial condition of ilie company and the co: in Try. for In Town and Out of Town Customers In Our Photographic Department We Carry the Largest and Best Stock of EASTMAN KODAKS AND CAMERAS Films, Plates, Film Packs and Supplies for Amateurs and Professionals to be found in this part of New England.

BETTER THAN CALOMEL Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets are a Harmless Substitute.
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets the substitute for calomel are a mild but sure laxative, and their effect on the liver is almost instantaneous. They are the result of Dr. Edwards' determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel. His efforts to banitsh It brought out these little olive-colored tablets.
These pleasant little tablets do the good that calomel does but have no bad after effects. They don't injure the teeth like strong liquids or calomel. They take Hold of the trouble and quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the gums. So do strong liquids.
It is best not to take calomel, but to let Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets take its place. Most headaches, "dullness" and that lazy feeling come from constipation and a disordered liver. Take Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets when you feel "lossy" and Xote how they 'clear" clouded brain and how they "perk up" the spirits.
