WESTERLY v v v - Miss Annie Sisson, Once Deceived, Takes Another Chance in Think the Law Should Interfere—Installation of Frank- Miss Annis Stsson, the Pawocatuck in Lodge—Oddities of the Tax List. tigated by the town officials, as there ',Glm','s SECOND _VENTURE Catarrho young woman who went to Callfornia| W&y be & violation of law on the part| last summer, a8 the outcome of cor- respondence throush & matrimonial bu- reau with a view o mearriage, and who returned after an absence of two months, is to do the same thing over again, untess there in a change of in- tention by 11 o'clock this (Saturday) morning, the time for the departure of the train on which she proposes to start om the trip acruss the continent. Her transportation end about $10 in addition hes been sent her, just as was done and on Friday she declar- “ed she accept and try the expe- rience over again, but she hopes with more results. Hope is the neme of the man in the case, and An- nie feels confident that hope in this in- stance will not be blasted. Miss Sisson on her return home said that when she started for Fresno she supposed her prospective husband was a hotel proprietor, as he had writ- ten that he was connected with a ho- tel, but she learned that his ohief duty was dtshes. She said that Hope met her in Chicago and that they were married there, but subse- | quently she stated that she was not married. Arriving at Fresno, she found work in & vineyard, Hope acting as a sort of guardian for the strange girl in a strange land. She soon tired of her experieace and longed to be at her home in Mechanic street, in the town of Pawcatuck. She was a long way from home -and without funds; so she made her situation known to an asso- clation of charitable women whose ob- ject is to care for the unfortunate of their sex. She was tagged, furnished with transportation to the next city where a branch of the association was located, and then furnished with trans- portation to the next station. Thus she traveled from the golden shore to the bank of the placid Pawcatuck riv- er. Once at home, she told varied sto- ries of her travels. She told that Hope, referring to him as her_husband, aoccompanied her as far as Washing- ton, where he had business, and that she was going back to Fresno with him, that she was pleased with her married life, and that her future was bright and full of bappiness. Later the truth camse to the surface and she told a different story. - Mies Sisson is of age, and her moth- er daciares is beyond her control: is free to go as she pieases, and thore- fore 1§ to decide for herself the ad- visabflity of making the trip, This Is a case that excites much Interest in of Hope, or someone else, who furnish- ©8 transportation for Miss Sisson, who is not the brightest young woman in this section, and whose home sur- roundings are not of the highest order. It has been susggested that if Mr. Hope's employment is as represented, it would be difficult for him to save enough from his earnings to pay out $160 for the girl's transportation to California twice in about six months, and that perhaps the money is furnish- ed from another source and not for the best of purposes. George W. Parks of Providence, a summer resident of Watch Hill, has been selected as the progressive’s can- didate for the United Btates senate. His opponents are Judge LeBaron B. Colt, republican, and Addison P. Mon- roe, democrat. As the general assem- bly is republican there is no doubt as to the result. Mr. Parkes is a jewelry manufacturer, and purchased the plant of the Westerly Narrow Fabric com- pany at auction intending to remove his jewelry business to Westerly, but he subsequently sold the plant to the Moore Narrow Fabric company eof Worcester. Mr. Parks was born in Brooklynm, N. Y. in 1858, and four years later be- came a resident of Providence, He served several terms in each branch of the city government and was a repub- lican of independent character. He de- clined the republican momination for mayor at the time former Mayor Fletcher was nominated and elected. At the 56th anniversary communica- tion and installation of Franklin lodge these officers were installed by Deputy Grand Master Herbert A. Rice of Prov- idence, with Henry C. Decker of Paw- catuck as master of ceremonies: Harry L. Bolles, master; Frank ¥. Dodge, senior warden; Robert F. Barr, junior warden; Albert H. Spicer, treasurer; Adbert E.

Dexter, Louis J. Reuter, Thomas Mc- Kenzic and Samuel H. Davis. It was given out that the plan to separate the tangible and intangible property in the matter of taxation, and fixing the rate for imt: ible property at 40 cents on each 00 of taxable property, was for the purposc of fore- ing the wealthier people of the state to pay a more equal share of the taxes, but the result is directly opposite so far as goes Westerly. Here the tax was $1.50 on all taxable property, but with the intangible property lowered to 40 cents there came @ lowering in the amount of tax: sceived, and this deficit was made by an increased | valuation of tangible property,the raise being from $100 to $500, and in addi- tion a tax was placed on some automo- biles, but not some owners being relieved of taxation for reasons not known to_ public. While there are ir creased valua- Uoa in property of some of the wealthy, they do not as a matter of fact pay as much into the town 2 as for- merly. With against $1.50 and the valua taxpayer one case the r on intan on doubled pays less money. where proper: was increased from $50,000 to $100,000, and the tax on the in sed amount is $400, while on the old bases of $1.50 the tax was $750, and for the lesser Here 3 a few illustrations, at random rles Perry, valuation 191 amoun sele $57, 400; tax paid, valuation 1912, $62,- 600; tax paid, . ~Thomas H.

When a pretty coquette gets busy with her handkerchief, some sily young man {8 anxious to find out what the wild waves are saying £ ] ask®d various juestions sbout catarrh “of the stomach Some people seem to think it strange that there should be such & disease. T hey “Can ca- | tarrh, the same kind of catarrh that one has in the nose and throat, get into the stomach? And if so, what dd it do to the B. AARTMAN, M.D.S00 00,50 Columbus, Ohio. Yes the same kind of catarrh that one has in the nose, the same kind of catarrh that affects the cavities of the head, the same kind of catarrh to which the throat is subject, may affect the mucous membranes of the - stomach. As I told you in previous articles, the stomach is lined with a mucous membrane. So is the nose and the throat. Wherever there is a mucous membrane there is a Hability to ca- tarrh. Catarrh is essentially a dis- case of the mucous membrane. Pe-ru-na Removes the Cause. It is perfectly useless to take ar- tificial digestants, or to take dyspep- sia remedies. What is needed is a catarrh remedy. Pe-ru-na is not onmly a catarrh remedy, but i6 a digestant. There- fore, Pe-ru-na will not only tempo- rarily assist the stomach in its func- tion and thus give prompt Telief, but it tends also towards eradicating the catarrh. The cause of most cases of dyspepsia, heart burn, sour ris- ing, full feeling after meals, coated tongue, constipation, the cause of most cases of this sort is catarrh of the stomach. —_— MYSTIC Engagement Announced—Klam Klub Feasts' on Turkey—Surprise on Birthday.

This remedy has saved me a great deal of suffering when having trouble from my kidneys. I procured Doan’s Kidney Pills at N. D.
