Henry Bass from one of the Carolinas who was on a visit to this city, his native place, first i preached here the doctrines of faith and salvation, as expounded and pro- mulgated by John Wesley. The next year Rev. William Jewett, an itinerant was here, and both these ministers preached in the old Osgood Hill school house. The center of the city, Monument Square, is today a striking picture, compared with the same locality in 1820. There were then but five or six scattering houses about the square, and some small shops. One of these was a little west of the site of the New Britain National Bank. The stream which supplied water power for this shop, crossed Main street, and of DI"NX MORE WATER IF KIDNEYS BOTHER Eat less meat and take Salts for Backache or Bladder trouble— Neutralizes Acids. Uric acid in meat excites the kid- neys, they become overworked; get sluggish, ache, and feel like lumps of lead. The urine becomes cloudy; the bladder is irritated, and you may be obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night. When the kidneys clog you must help them flush off the body’s urinous waste or you'll be a real sick person shortly. At first you feel a dull misery in:the kidney region, you suffer from back- ache, sick :headache, dizziness, sto- mach gets sour, tongue coated and you feel rheumatic twinges when the weather is bad. Eat less meat, drink lots of water; also get from any pharmacist four ounces of Jad Salts; take a table- spoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This fa- mous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to clean clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activ- ity, also to neutralize the acids in urine, so it no longer is a source of irritation, thus ending bladder weak- ness. Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in- jure; makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink which everyone should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and active. Druggists here say they sell lots of Jad Salts to folks who believe in overcoming kidney trouble while it is only trouble.

There was a dwelling house near the site of the church, and a little north of this building, there was a cattle pound for restraining stray animals. The only store was at the corner of Main and West Main streets. There was a dwelling house a little distance south of Franklin Square, and near it there was 'a cider mill hearse was kept in a room over one end of the mill. A Parish of Berlin. New Britain at this time, had the distinction of being a parish of Ber- lin. Interest in this new doctrine of religion increased, and those who accepted it became staunch and fear- less pioneers in this place. The exact date of the church or- ganization is not known for a cer- tainty; however, it is assured that it was not later than 1820, and may have been in 1818. Incidents showing the strong aver- sion to Methodism on the part of New Britain residents were related by Mr. Smith. Difficulty was experienced in finding a good location because of the pressure brought to bear upon those with whom the church negotiated in regard to a lot. Richard S. Cornwall, a man of no religious pretensions, ri- nally bought the lot at the corner of Arch and Walnut street and sold it the same day to the Methodists. A very plain building about thirty by forty feet was erected, and so far advanced, enclosed from the weather, the first meeting, a quarterly confer- ence was held in it. For some years, plain board benches were the only sittings, and all seats were free until 1848. This building was not completed till 1828, four vears after being commenced. The Sunday school was organized in 1829, curing the pastorate of Rev. Raphael Gilbert. Second Methodist Church Built. In twenty-five years the capacity of this small church had become alto- gether inadequate to accommodate the people who would attend worship there, and in 1854, during the pastor- ste of Otis Saxton, a much larger and commodious building was arected on the site of the first home. This church in turn became the cherished home of Methodists for thirty-six years. In 1869 it was im- proved, decorated and reflnished, and & first-class organ was installed. Ground for the present church was broken on the newly purchased Lewis iot, July 1, 1889 and the cornerstone wag laid April 14, 1890. South Congregational Church.

Candidates For Office Forget How to Say “Have a Smoke, Boys.” Judging by expense returns being filed with the city clerk the old prac- tice of passing around cigars is out of style with politicians. Thus far the only candidates for office who spent any money for cigars and who has included it in his expensés was Louis J. Arata, elected a councilman on the republican ticket from the fifth ward. Smokes cost Councilman Ara- ta $2. His only other expense was $1.76 for milage. Others who had expenses were Ar- vid H. Nero, successful candidate for selectman, $5, a contribution to the republican town committee; John J. Riley, unsuccessful candidate for al- derman in fifth ward, $8.: and A, M. Paonessa, successful candidate for councilman in fifth ward, $2.25. Those who had no expenses were as follows: Robert Clougher, unsuccessful candi- date for alderman in third ward; Jo: eph Preissl, unsuccessful candidate for alderman in fourth ward; Thomas C. Smith, unsuccessful candidate for councilman in fourth ward; Alfred M. Peterson, unsuccessful candidate for councilman in first ward; Daniel Sul- livan, unsuccessful candidate for school committeeman; Lorenz Kopf, unsucessful candidate for councilman in fifth ward; Gustaf F. Kosswig; un- successful candidate for alderman in fifth ward; George A.

Worse than that it reduces the body’s power so that each attack is worse than the one before. If any disease nceds curing early it is rheumatism but there is almost no dis- ease which physicians find more difficult, to treat successfully. When a mediciné docs hel% rheumatism nobody knows how or why it does it. All authorities agree that the blood be- comes thin with alarming rapidity as rheumatism develops. Maintaining the quality of the blood thereforeis a reason- nl)lewav of preventing and combating That it works out in fact is shown by the beneficial results in the treatment of rheumatism, acute, muscu- lar and articular, with the blood tonic, Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. That hundreds who take Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for their rheumatism get well is a fact beyond dispute. That the rheu- does not return as long as the blood is kept rich and red is equallytrue.
