The distress begins In early morning — keeps up throughout the day. It's hard to get out of bed, it's torture to stoop or straighten.

When suffering so, use Doan’s Kidney Pills, the tested and proven kidney remedy, used "in kidney troubles for over 50 years. Doan's Kidney Pills are recommended by thousands for just such cases. Proof of their effectivenss in the testimony of this Norwich resident: Mrs. Jared Hewitt, Palmer Street, Norwich, Conn, says: “For several months I was bothered by pains across the small of my back and from other symptoms. I knew that my kidneys were at fault. I got a box of Doan’s Kidney Pills at N. D. Sevin & Son's Drug Store, and soon after using them the pain in my back disappeared and my health improved. I don’t hesitate to recommend this excellent remedy.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn. ~», Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United States. Remember take no other.

On that day schools were closed and bus- iness in great measure suspended. Ev- ery family had tralning cake on that occasion. These training days were obgerved until 1845 of 1850. The Green was a lively place with mounted troopers, the gunners in green frocks trimmed with gold fringe; the martial music of drum and fife. The children held their breath in awe while the gun car- riage was put in position and shot rammed down. Then the machine was raced towards the foot of the green discharging on the way with such force that windows rattled in the rous- es nearby. Troopers rode to and fro and everyday men seemed part of another world in their gay uniforms. The tavern now the Johnson Home, was an important factor, as all the sol- diers went there for their noonday lunch. RETAIL .

About 300,000 feet had been handled by Ruby, when he ceased hauling, as Tonon had cut trees thirty to 35 feet apart and told him he must haul them. This Ruby refused to do, saying they came under the Mead “mscattering trees” Ruby brought suit in the Tolland county superior court for $700, also for damages for the loss suffered because his men and teams were idle. - Police Duty Left to Burghers. In the eighteenth century the whols safety and order of Glasgow, Scot- land, were intrusted to the unpaid and reluctant burghers. Every citi- zen who was between the years of | eighteen and sixty, and paid a vearly | rent amounting to $15, had to take his turn at guarding the,city.. “On touch of drum,” says a writer, “the gentle- man was at his post at ten at night, and strolled with weary tread and vawning gait aldng the Trongate and High street, and up the pitch dark lanes, of winter nights till four in the morning. After that hour the city was without a police.” Why Not Stop Drinking Men and women .who drink regu- larly and excessively cannot answer this question.
