The ceremony started shortly after 8 o'clock, rict Deputy Past Exalt- ed Ruler James Smith of Danbury was the presiding officer and Grand Secre- tary Past Exalted Ruler Arthur C.

Fol- lcwing the ceremony a social session took place, at which the talent came from the Nickel and Bijou theaters. The music at the festivities was by the Lyric Hall orchestra, an organiza- tion that takes pride in providing fine music, The beautiful home of the Elks nev- er looked more inviting than it did on Thursday evening, when it was in or- der for the reception of visiting brothers. They came, too, from all scctions of the state and they were made weléome as soon as they put in an appearance, Some of them saw the home for the first time and were enthusiastic over its splendid appoint- ments and its elaborate furnishings. The property represents a lot of the hardest sort of work and days and nights of dilizent labor by those who have provided it—those who did the real work as well as contributed to the fund who made it possible. Every Elk who put foot over the threshold of the new accorded to James 2 his deserved praise for his labors in raising the funds that equip- ped the elegant meeting place. He did splendid service, Many Elks arrived in New London in the afternoon and were received at the club house by a committee, Who extended to the visitors every court- esy, escorting them around the club and annex, where the lodge room, ban- quet hall, pool parlor, and bowling alley is located. The guests were high- ly impressed with the new home and lodge room, all declaring it to be one of the coziest and best arranged homes in_the country. The home and lodgeroom were illum- tnated so that the buildings were one blaze of light. Across the top of the home was the electric sign, “B. P. O. Blks.” so_that all visitors could be guided to the scene of ceremony. Gift from Norwich.

All were enthusiastic over the handsome time of the New London lodge. RIFLE PRACTICE AND GUARD DUTY.

Tremendous Popularity of the Vege- table Prescription for' Kidneys. That the readers of this paper ap- preciate advice when given good faith is plainly demonstrated by the fact that one well known local phar« macy supplied the ingredients for the “vegetable prescription” many times within the past two weeks. The an- nouncement of this simple, harmless mixture has certainly accomplished much in reducing the great man: cases of kidney complaint and rheu- matism here, relleving pain and mis- ery, especially among the older popu- lation, who are always suffering more or less with bladder and urinary trou- bles, backache and particularly rheu- matism. Another well known druggist asks us to continue the announcement of the prescriptions. It is doing so much real good here, he continues, that it ‘would be a crime not to do so. It can not be repeated too often, and further states many cases of remarkable cures wrought. ‘The following is the prescription, of simple ingredients, making a harmless, inexpensive compound, which any rer- son can prepare by shaking well in a bottle: Fluid Extract Dandelion, one- half ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsapariila, three ounces. Any first-class drug store will sell this small amount of each ingredient, and. the dose for adults is one teaspoonful to be taken after each meal and again at bedtime. There 1s enough here to last for one week, if taken according to directions. Good results will be apparent from the first few doses.

OBITUARY. John C. Ripley. John C, Ripley. president of the J. C. Ripley Art company, and a promi- nent Mason of Hartford, died suddenly at his home there Wednesday evening. For more than a year he had been in poor health, but his death, which was indirectly due to heart trouble, was not_expected. He made no complaint of feeling ill Wednesday and ate his dinner at § o'clock as usual, after which he moved from the tabie and sat on a couch for a short time, then bent forward to untie his shoes. A second later he fell backward and be- came unconscious, Dr, E. R. Storrs was called and arrived within ten min- utes, but his visit was futile, as Mr. Ripley was beyond medical aid before the physician was summoned. He had been suffering from heart trouble for & year or more. Mr. Ripley was born in Windham in November, 1845, a son_of Mr. and Mrs. Jeremiah Ripley. He received his early education in Willimantic, When he had completed his schooling he went to Norwich and opened an art store, where he remained a num- ber of years. His store was burned and he Tebuilt it, but after the freshet in 1878 he left Norwich and opened a store in New Haven, where he re- mained for a brief period, He then went to Hartford and entered the em- ploy of J. H. Eckhardt, but began business for himself in 1900, continu- ing the business until his death. When a young man he married Miss Jennie Kimberly of Guilford, who died in 1883, and in 1898 he married Miss Laura Chapin of Hartford, who sur- vives him with two children by the first marriage, Charles E. Ripley and J. Stewart Ripley. The oldest son, Harry G, Ripley, died fifteen years ago, leaving one daughter, Jean K., of Chi- cago, He also leaves a brother, Capt. E. H. Ripley of Washington D..C., and a sister, Miss Bunice Ripley o Willimantic. 'Mr. Ripley was a thirty- second degree Mason, being a member of Columbian commandery, K. T. of Norwich, of the Connecticut Sovereign consistory of Norwich, ad of Sphinx temple, A, O. N. M. S. of Hartford. He was aiso a member of the Unitar- ian church. TOOK WRONG TRAIN. Member of Merry Widow Orchestra Started for New Haven Instead of Norwich, One of the violin players connected with the Merry Widow company had a tale of trouble to tell here Tuesday when he reached Norwich late in the afternoon. While wating at New Lon- don for the train to start for Norwich he stepped into the station to have 2 bite at the Junch counter. While d ing so his train moved out, In the excitement he rushed out and boarded a train which was leaving the sta- tion, supposing’ it was a Norwich train. Instead it was a through ex- press to New Haven. The man's violin and trunk were in the baggage car of the Norwich train while he was speeding towards New Haven figuring out where they would land. After his explaining the situa- tion to the conductor on the Shore line, he was given a pass back to New London, and arrived in Norwich on the 4.50. He was relieved to find that his violin and trunk had been taken oft and were waiting for him hers, AT BROADWAY THEATER. Fenberg Stock Co.

Just as long as you have dyspepsia your food will mot properly digest, and the nutritious élements in the food will not be extracted or absorbed, and impoverished or watery blood wili fol- low. This condition may not be apparent at first, but it will come just as sure as the sun will rise again. Any stomach allment, Including all forms of indigestion, can be promptly cured by using Mi-o-na tablets, a solentific treatment unsurpassed. It stops fermentation, belching of gas and taste of sour food almost at once. The mighty power of Mi-o-ra to in- vigorate and restore the stomach t perfect condition is known every- where. Mi-o-na cures by building up—by banishifig the cause. For thin people it«s a great flesh builder, because it causes the stomach to give more and purer nutrition to the blood. It cures sea and car sickness and vomiting of pregnancy almost jmmediately. The Lee & Osgood Co. sells Mi-o-na for 50 cents a large box, and guarantees it to cure or money back.
