Otherwise, according to a member of the hoard of heaith, one may devour incongruities.—Boston “Transeript The Drug Man, Franklin Square. Norwich, Ct. febsd The annual inspection of the two local companies, the Third dnd the Fifth of the Coast artillery corps, took place at the armory on Monday ev ning, this being the occasion when the regular army officer makes the inspec- tion., The companies were drawn up on the drill #hed floor in battalion for- mation by Lieut.-Col. H. S. Dorsey of New London. In the Third company there were sixty men and in the Fifth forty-one. The regular army officer who was detailed to do the inspecting was First Lieut. F, K. Adams of Fort Jay, Gov- ernors Island, N. Y., and he was, ac- companfed by Inspector General Schulze of this state, who made the state inspection a month or more ago. There was Fresent Captain Morgan of Poquonoc also. The inspection of the companies was made in heavy marching order and two squads from each were drilled by cor- porals. There was a test at day and night guard duty. The rolls were in- spected and so was the equipment. Lieutenant Adams was evidently well pieased with the inspection, as he said First Lieut. Adams of Regular Army eral Schultze Look Over Third and Fifth Commands. ) — s e Cans it was a pleasure to visit companies where it is evident they take an inter- est in the work, He was mudh pleased with the equipment rooms.

The inspection will serve in place of drills for the compa~ nies this week, but the Third company will have its regular meeting, as. there are overcoats to be issued to those whose measurements must be secured, and it is done now becduse of the ‘Washington trip, which 1s the one topic of interest in the company at the present time, the ball being ovi The treasury shows that about $275 will be realized from the ball, One recruit was secured Monday , evening and a re-enlistment. Four of the ab- sentees of the Third company will probably be dropped from the rolls shortly, Lieutenant Adams was entertained during his stay in town by Major Steiner, a dinner being served at the ‘Wauregan to a few friends, including the inspecting officers, following the inspection.

War- ner, members of the New Pngland con- gress, commission of Connecticut, are sending out nptices for the congress this year. 5 Thé New England congress of Con- gregational churches, held for the first time last year in Worcester, was a marked success in every respeet. It ‘was not only a great meeting, 1,062 del- egates being present, a majority of them laymen, but it quickened denom- inational consciousness and church iife throughout New Bngland, and the year has been one of progress.

Luck seemed to be following in or rather preceding the footsteps of Addi- con Scholfleld of Lafayette street Sat- urday night. Mr. Scholfield, who is a well known resident of the Falls, was walking to the city with a friend about 7.30, and as he was passing the Broad- way theater his eye caught a sparkle, and, stooping, he picked up a hand- some gold bracelet of considerable val- ue. But Mr. Scholfield still had some- thing coming to him. As he was on his way home, at tha top of Broadway hill he’ discovered a black pocketbook of good size, with its sides bulging out. Before Mr. Scholfield could ex- amine the contents a well dressed | woman, who had been walking up the | street a short distance ahead of him, | turned, after feeling nervously in her pockets, and asked him if he hgd seen anything of a pocketbook, saying that ! she had just lost one containing § As her description tallied with the purse he had picked jup, Mr. Scholfield | at once surrendered She was over- joyed to recover her lost possessions, | but was doubtless so overwhelmed tha she omitted to eay thank you.

At a public protest meeting held in Carpenters’ hall, under the auspices of Local Norwich Socialist party and Branch No. 128, Workmen's_circle, on Sunday, resolutions were adopted re- garding the attempts of Russia and Megico to extradite common crimi- nals.

FOR GOOD FRIDAY. ‘A feature of last week's session of the Waterbury Business Men's asso- clation was the deliberation upon a communication received from the Rev. J. G. Davenport, D. D., pastor of the Second Congregational cHurch, 'pro- tsting against thg recommendation of the board of diractors that the various places of business remain open all day Good Friday. This remonstrance was couched in language which left, no doubt as to the sincerity of the writ- er's views and among other things ap- pealed to the state traditions and the significance of the Jday -itself to the e assoiation i e assoclation in wi s ter In various u‘hu'fln‘ the conclusion that the day hdd been so thoroughly given up to the com- merclal spirit that to endeavor to re- claim it from the vulgar detalls of commerelalism would be & task so ;t‘:pendo s to make it Impractica- the mat- 1y reached | £ % Fine, Pur’rlpw.' for Kidney Trouble. nyone Can Prepare. ’ The following prescription for the “|cure of rheumatism and Kkidney and bladder troubles has no doubt been filled millions of times, viz.: Fluid Compound Kargon, one ounc pound Syrup Sarsaparilla, ounces. These simple, harmless in- gredients can be obtained at any good prescription pharmacy at little cusi and are mixed by shaking well in a bottle, The dose for adults s a teaspoon- tul after each meal and at bedtime, drinking _a full tumblerful of water after cach dose. It is stated that this prescription positive_remedy for kidney trouble and lam ack, weak bladder and urinary difictlties, espe- cially of the elderly people, and one of the best things to be used in rheu- matic affiictions, relieving the aches and pains and reducing swellings. A well-known authority states that this mixture acts directly upon the eliminative tissues of the Kkidneys; cleanses these spongelike organs and gives them power to sift and strain the polsonous waste matter and uric acid from the blood which is the cause of rheumatism, 1 your back or sides ache and you suspect kidney trouble, it would be wise to try this for a few days b bl B ALl B el s SO BAPTIST MEETINGS TODAY. Getting Together fo» Work in Missions and Removal of Detbs — Prominent Speakers. The big meetirigs which Baptists are to hold in this city today are part of a series which before it is completed will extend from Maine to Kansas and probably to the Pacific coast. Bap- tists of the northern states have three general missionary societies, the American Baptist Missionary union (for forelgn missions), the American Baptist Home Mission society and the American Baptist Publication society. These are all co-operating in a grand project to pay off their accumulated debts, provide enough money for their surrent work and give to each a small working capital. In this they have the backing of the Northern Baptist con- vention, which is the new national representative body of the denomina- tion. The budgets of these three societles, aggregating $1,600,000, have been ap- ‘portioned among all the churches, so that each church knows what its share is. In large churches and .small, in city and country, everywhere, they are rising up with ‘the determination to wipe out the débts of thelr great mis- sionary socleties and furnish them with money enough to carry on the mam- moth work which they have in this country and abroad. A general committee of seven, rep- resenting the whole denomination, is in charge of this campaign, the details | in the several states being looked after | by state apportlonment committees. These include in their membersnip | prominent business men, who are giv- | ing largely of their time to the carry- ing out of this big scheme in a sys- tematic_and businesslike way. It is expected that most if not all of the whole amount needed will be secured bv the end of tha financial year of the three socfeties, March 31st. “Budget conferences” is the term applled to the great missionary meet- ings. Special efforts are being made to bring fogether from the churches as many of the men as possible. and pas- tors and laymen together will meet in earnest discussion of ways and means for raising the apportionments in the varfous churches. The morning and afternoon_sessions will be devoted to informal discussion of practical phases of the problem. After supper Dr. Barnes will answer all questions which may be thrown at him, and prominent laymen will speak. The evening ses- sion is to be a great mass meeting at which Dr. Bowley Green of Providenca will be the chief speaker, assisted by others of prominence. No effort will be | made in the meetings to raise money. Tt is expected, however, that sufficient interest will be aroused among the churches to lead them to contribute | their full apportionment. This is understood not to be a spas- modic effort. but the beginning of a new order of things. Groton.—Dlstrict Deputy George R.

Prominent dentists all over the country, dentists who serve the very best clags of patients, are fast com- ing to a realization of the fast that as gold at one time su other perseded methods of filling the teeth, 80 porce- lain is now, in many cases, gold. However the dentist who has been using goldéfor many years finds it difficult to change to Poml:h be- cause of the fact that it takes time and study to learn to properly manipu~ late porcelain. Gold in the teeth is really un- sightly. There is a contrast between the gold, which oftens becomes black, and the pearly white of the teeth, that Is annoying indeed to particu- lar people, and especially is this so where a great deal of gold is . Many people find the constant o ing and hammering consequent upon gold - filling p.:nmf and nerve rack- ing. In order to_give the people of Nor- wich the besefit of the Porcelain Method, which represents all that is modern’ in dentistry, Dr. Jackeon, the manager of the King Dental Parloss, with offices on Franklin Square, has equipped a department with a com- plete outfit for doing this class of work. This department is in charge of an expert dentist from New York city, who has for several years mmade a specialty of Porcelain Dentistry and the Alveolar method of restoring lost teeth. With porcelain, a tooth can be filled to defy detection, because of the fact that the porcelain will perfectly has- monize with the color of the strue- ture of the teeth. There can be no injury to the nerves, and for this reason, and because of the lack of unpleasant features attending its use, porcelain dentistry s partic: adapted to children. Metals in often generate an electric current and their proximity to the nerves In juve- 1o teeth often causes unfortunafe re- Ats. This is not so in the case of porcelain. Any intelligent person who gives this matter any thought will at once appreciate the advantages of the new dentistry, and the number of peo- ple who stay away from the dentists because of unpleasant experiences or because they prefer imperfect testh | to & mouth full of unsightly metal, rec- ognize the fact that here is dentistry which' they can take advantage of | without hesitation. Dr. Jackson in well known in the city, and the fact | that he ts now introducing modern porcelain _dentistry will und: ly bring to his office many people who have long appreciated the unsatistac- tory results of the older methods. Anyone who has remained in a den- tist's chair for hours during a tedlous session of painful drilling or contin- | uous use of the mallet knows what | such experiences mean and will be | quick to appreciate the aifference in | methods, and it s because of the fact | that the best w‘nlvnat:“:lre des | porcelain work that sts are - :\in:: to awaken to the advantages, | both to thelr patients and to them- elves, Dr. Jackson will welcome & visit to his office and will be Tu‘ to | explain personally the many points of ntage In pegcelain dentistry that only been hinted at in this arti- 1t may be well to state here that | for bridge work porcelain fills a want { that has been long felt, for re-ename | eling it has attalned a state of artistie | perfection, and porcelain plates have | been used extentively in the highest | class work for many years. | Dr. Jackson assures you of the | highest amount of satisfaction in den- tal work. It would be well also to take your chiliren to him as you will find porcelain dentistry unusually de- x(r:\hvl- for their needs—it robs going to the dentist of all its terrors for the little folks. The King Dental Parlors are located on Franklin Square, over Somers Bros., the most convenient location in the city, The offices are clean and pleas- ant.
