"WESTERLY HISTORICAL SOCIETY [Dr. Hartman Speaks About Committee Appointed to Draft Constitution—Gilt Edge and ! Federal Expresses to Stop Regularly—Rhode Island Tu-' o berculosis Exhibit—Barber Rose Reported Left For Parts Unknown—$50,000 at Auction For Westerly. & Con- I ; necticut Railway Company. i Misg Julia Smith presided at a meet- ing of parties interested in the forma- tion of a local historical society which was_ held in the juvenile library de- pertment in the Memorial buildins. M¢ss Smith s the prime mover in the project and she explained in detail the need'and benefit of such an organ- ization In Westerly. Among those who were invited to give their views on the subject was ISthan Wilcox, librarian emeritus of the Westerly public libra- ry. Hoe told of the early formation of the Pawcatuck Valley Historical so- ciety, of which he was secretary, and which was never formally abandoned, and of his individual efforts in carry ing on the objects of that organiza- tion. He had been for many years collecting for preservation documents | and articles of local and general vhls- torical interest. As a result the West- erly library is now rich with afticles of historic value and a nucleus for a museum that was sure to materialize | in the years to come. It could not be expected that the collection in the li- brary would be given into the custody of any historical society or that |.h_c - brary association would discontinue the collection of articles of historic value for preservation. Mr. Wilcox said his preference was & continuation of the plan of the libra- ry association, so far as went the col- lection and preservation of articles of historic interest, rather than an his- torical soclety plan, for ih the library the articles would be on exhibition on every weekday and evening, while in a istorical socfety the exhibition w»uuld e chiefly for the benefit of members. e did not wish to be misunderstood being opposed to the formation of an historical society, for he was not, and would be glad to be enrolled in the membership. Librarian Joseph L. P endorsed in a genergl v ment expressed by Mr. encouraged the formation torical society along the lines sug- gested, and believed the Memorial building a proper place for the head- quarters of the society. He thought recommodations could be furnished for meeting purposes, and in time perma- ment quarters in the second story of the building. He said ti 1 the two Grand Army pos ep- srate quarters in the building, might be consolidated, and then perman quarters could be furnished the his- torical soclety. Thomas Perry also spoke favorable to the formation of a society and made motion, which prevailed, that Miss Smith appoint a committee of five to draft a constitution and by- laws And make report to a meeti be held Jan. 14. Miss Smith app 4s that committee the following: Joséph L. Peacock, Rev. Samuel Cathcart, Mrs. Frede P Mrs. Thomas Perry and Mrs. M. Burke. By unanimous vote M Smith was added to the committee. ock said he the senti- Wilcox and of a his- Frank W. Coy, chairman of the Waesterly Board of Trade committee on traffic and municipal improvement, has been in commun i with railroad mmodations for Westerly, with special r rence to having the Gilt Edge expre bound, due to arrive in W 7.35 p. m., make regular s Since the change in tim is, for the accommoda gers for Bridgeport and beyond. consequence no dependence could be placed on that train for passenger or mall service, and there was not assur- ance of early morning delivery of mail in New: York on trains leaving West- erly Ilater. ster Butler, ho ever, took a chance and sent mail mat- ter regularly to this train, but was not always sure of connection. Wednesday Mr. Coy received com- municatfon frcm railroad authority stating that arrangements were being sompleted to have the westbound Gilt Edge train make regular stop at Westerly. It was also thro the ef- forts of the rd of y > that the eastbound IFederal expr rive at 7.45 a. at Westerly, thu press train to To forward its educational campaign throughout the state, the Rhode Isiand Anti-Tuberculosis association is 1o have a small traveling c will show some of the cau culosis and how the lead to the di Bpecial attention is this exhibit to nursing work, sanitation and hygiene, dairies s heousing. 6f mill employes.

Tt is intended that considerable time will be devoted ta the work in parts o6f the state where education along been much developed. 1f Peter M. Rose responds when his case is called for trial Friday in the Third district court at Westerly, the court officials will be surprised, as Peter at the vresent time is to them in parts unknown, and sureties on his bond of $600, Mr. and Mrs. Purpuro, have lost faith in nkind. It is al- leged that the owners of the furniture in ;Peter's barber shop have taken possession of the same and at least one of the barbers is searching for employment elsewhere and declares he has no knowledge of the wherelbouts of Peter, Several weeks ago Rose ‘was arrested on the charge of embez zlement in connection with liquor raids | Peter, it is alleged, | ~ made in Bradford. secured $17 from each of the defend- ants, giving them to understand that $5 for the judge, $5 for the town solcitor'; $5 for chief of police and $2 for himself, and were assured that they would be immune from arrest after the cases against the seized liquors were disposed of. But the men were arrested, brought into court and penalized. The charge against Rose resulted and he wae arrested, charged with em- bezzlement from two of the. four men who had been found guilty of violating the liquor law. Rose was adjudged gullfy - dn the district court, but the case was dismissed in the superior court by reason of defective complaint. Rose was subsequently rearrested upon complaint more carefully drawn. In court his attorney entered demurrer and the judge took same under con- slderation. At the next session of the court the demurrer was overruled and the case was assigned for trial on Fri- day of :the present week. While his attorney has no knowledge of the whereabouts of his client, he has hope that he will appear for ‘trial on Fri- day. ) .

Catarrh of the Lungs .Qu!'.e s stir in medica] cir- article in which he refers to the £8l remarkable cure of Mrs. Eberlein, of Pittsburg. The impression prevails that Dr. Hartman claims to be able to cure incurable diseases, A re- port of these ; t ents §.B. HARTMAN, M.DS 5 3 b o e e Columbus, Ohio, o1y ears. As soon as he heard what people were saying he was very quick and emphatic in his denial of any intent ‘| on his part to create such an impres- sion. No, said the Doctor I do not claim to have any magical cures., I do not claim to have a cure for any: thing. Judging from the number of letters I receive, however, concerning Mrs. Eberlein’s case, from people who have similar complaints, I should judge that catarrh of the lungs is vegy - prevalent. The number of peo- ple afflicted are increasing. In sSpite of the strenuous efforts of health boards catarrh prevails more and more every year. No, I do not claim to have a mir- aculous cure. I only recite some of the things the people tell me who take Pe-ru-na. The case of Mrs. Eberlein, for instance. She was ap- parently dying of catarrh of the lungs. Her physician had told her so. Many people who had seen others die under similar conditions thought her to be dying. She commenced taking Pe-ru- na and recovered. Now, I do not undertake to explain her recovery. I certainly do not un- dertake to say that Pe-ru-na will cure anybody In the last stages of catarrh of the lungs. I make no such. claim, But I do undertake to say this. As long as there is life there is hopé, The doctors are Hable to be mistaken. They often condemn people to die when they do not die. They say, “Mrs. So-and-So cannot live twenty-four hours,” and then Mrs, So-and-8o gets well. They say, “Mr. So-and-So has not a ghost of a show of living,' but Now, what is it that cures such cases? Every doctor knows that it is the vitality of the patient, The last grain of vitality was not exhausted, just enough vitality left to make one a short wedding trip Mr. and Mrs. Crouch will reside in New London. Officers of Betsey Ross Council. Betsy Ross council met Tuesday in their rooms in the Gilbert block. Be- sldes regular business the annual elec- tion of officers took place, the choice being: For councillor, Miss Etta Belle Woodmansee; assoclate councillor, Betsy A. Doyle; vice councillor, Helen Knight; associate vice councillor, Louise Jones; recording secretary, Ed- na Prentice; warden, Jennie Schaffer; conductor, Mary Cottrell; inside sen- tinel, Sadie McGregger; outside sen- tinel, Louise Payne; trustee: for 18 months, Mary B. Lewis. Fayles—Bailey. Cards have been recefved in town from Providence announcing the mar- riage of Miss Eleanor Bailey, daugh- ter of Mr. and Mrs. George N. Baliley, and J. Richmond Favles of Pawtucket. Mrs. Fayles is the granddaughter of M Mary Bailey of -West Mystic avenue and for many years has spent her summers in this place, where she has a host of friends. Village Interests. Miss Eliza Grinnell is seriousiy ill at her home on Church street and is being cared for by Miss Eva Fish of Noank. Mrs. Grinnel]l is 89, The regular session of Stonington lodge,. No. 26, I. O. O.F, was held on Wednesday night. more' struggle, and the disease was overcome, Now, it may happen that Pe-ru-na is taken at the critical moment in the patlent's struegle against dis- ease. The patient may have been losing ground day after day. At last the fight seems hopeless; death in- evitable. Some one . suggests Pe- ru-na. The patient takes it without any hope. The medicine actually does infuse new life into the circulation. They fee] its genialinfluence as soon as it is swallowed. This constitutes the turning point in their disease. The little assistance which Pe-ru-na gives Nature at this important point turns the tide of affairs in favor of the patient, Not that Pe-ru-na cures incurable diseases. No, not at all. But Pe-ru- na does lend a little much-needed as- sistance at a time when a feather weight on one side or the other of the balances turns the scales in favor of or against the patient. Scores and scores of times Pe-ru-na has come in at these critical moments and saved patients from imminent death. At Jeast it seems so. I have bushels of letters reciting such things. » Pe-ru-na is a diffusive stimulant. It stimulates the circulation. It causes a warm glow of health to pervade the mucous membranes of the body. The mucous membranes of the stomach, alimentary canal, kidneys, bladder, lungs, all the mucous mem- branes are. apparently revivified, re- juvenated, re-endowed with the glow of health. That is what Pe-ru-na will do. And this often saves life. The-rei can be no doubt of it. | ‘Whether the case be one of catarrh of the lungs or any other chronic prostrating illness, the right stimu- lant at the right time, in the right doses, does the work. Explain it as you may, such things are happening every day. 1 prefer not to use tife word cure. I do not like the sound of it. I do; net like the idea that people gener-| ally attach to the word. But that Pe-ru-na helps Nature, and helps Nature sometimes when she is saaly in need of help, that I know to be the truth. That I do not hesitate to pro- Jaim. That is exactly what occurred | n ihe ¢ of Mrs. Bberlein, the ac- count of which has caused so much comment, If T or any of my immediate rela- tives had catarrh of the lungs, Pe- ru-na would be given a thorough trial, I assure you. That being the case, I can conscientiously advise any one else to do the same. £ Pe-ru-na, Man-a-lin and La-cu-pia manufactured by the Pe-ru-na Com- pany, Columbus, Ohio. Sold at all drug stores.
