HERE IS PROOF THAT RESINOL STOPS [TCHING The, best evidence of what the Resi- nol treatment will o for YOUR tor- tured skin is what it has done for others. Here is a man whose WHOLE BODY was_covered with tormenting eczema. When HE says that Resinol stops itching immediately, he knows what he is talking about. Just read his simple, straightforward letter: “My entire body, even my eyelids, was completely covered with blisters. The burning and itching were some- thing terrible, and I COULD NOT SLEEP nor rest. I think I had one of the worst cases of eczema a human eing ever had. “T used eight different kinds of rem- edies without success. I then .tried Resinol 'Ointment and Resinol Soap and it stopped the itching IMME- DIATELY. I gradually noticed a change for the better. Now I am tirely cured."—(Signed) McCullough, 249 River St, Mass., Aug. 11, 1914, Now ask yourself this question: “It Resinol could heal THIS man's skin, will it not also heal mine?

The Temperance Paper Has Been Sent to 14 Norwich Pastors. The regular business meeting of the W. C. T. U. held on Monday after- noon at their rooms in the Bill block | was largely attended and was presided i over by the president, Miss Harriet G. Cross. The meeting opened with the singing_of the hymn, Something For Jesus, Mrs. H. F. Palmer presiding at the piano. Miss Cross read the scripture lesson and then asked each one to quote a verse from Scripture, | which many did. The report of the January meeting was read and Mrs. J. J. Fields was asked to give the re- port of the February meeting. Mrs. S. Howard Mead presented the treas- urer’s report which showed all bills paid and a good sized balance in the treasury. Mrs. Mead who is superin- tendent of the parlor meeting depart- ment reported on the meeting held with Mrs. Jacob Starkweather recent- ¥. The meeting proved profitable and at that time two new members were received into the ranks. Mrs. Mead said she would like to have some one of the members volunteer her parlor as she wishes to hold another parlor meeting in the near future. Monday was Union Signal day hav- ing been named as such in honor of the birthday anniversary of DMrs. L. M. M. Stevens, the late state president of the W. C. T. U. ix new subscrip- tions were received for the Union Sig- nal. In keeping with the “Campaign Number,” an idea originating Mrs. Stevens, the paper has been sent to 14 pastors in the town and seven subscriptions to the Young Crusader have been distributed as follows: Two to the County Home, two to Rock Nook home, one to the Y. M. C. A., one to the Otis library and one for the use of the union. Miss Cross announced that Mrs. Ar- mour, president of the Georgia W. C. T. U., and one of the leading temperance speakers will be in Connecticut for a week or ten days in April. She is to speak at New London on April 9 and at Willimantic on April 12 and Miss Cross urged the members to go to either place, whichever was the more convenient, and hear her. “Then Mrs, Mead who had charge of the literary programme took charge of the meeting and spoke on parlor meetings. She said that in' Connecti- cut the past year there were held 137 red letter days. and 41 union ob- served the Stevens Memorial day, con- tributing in all $90 to that fund. By these meetings there have been gain- ed 54 active and 29 honorary members. In this state last year 8152 pages .of literature were distributed and the to- tal offerings amounted to $168.91. Throughout the United States there were held the past year 11,677 socfal meetings and 6,138 red letter days have been observed. Twenty states are on the honor roll and Connecticut is num- ‘bered among these. | In the United States 1,754,342 pages of literature were .distributed and the| offerings amounted to $11,628.42. To the L. T. L. of Connecticut was award- ed a badge for the observance of the largest number of social meetings and red letter days in proportion to the number of unions in the state. Miss Cross read a letter which Miss Anna A. Gordon, National W, C. T. U. president, wrote to the Czar of Ru sia congratulating him on the abolish- ment of the liquor trafiic in Russia. Another article read showed that through the influence of Billy Sunday 80 saloons were closed in one day in Des Moines. Mrs, Nickerson read an article which stated that 36,000 ‘men have pledged themselves to work for the closing of the saloons in Penn- sylvania, through the influence of Bil- ¥ Sunday. Mrs, Mead read an intes esting story on the influence of wo- men who took a decided stand for pro- ‘hibition. The union voted to order 100 copies of the song. A Saloonless Nation in 1920, ‘Thess songs are to be used by the union and Sunday- schools. The collection was then taken and the meeting closed with :he singing of Send Showers of Bless- ng.

Williams’ Property —Norwich Ci!izens! Working To Get This 400 Acre Plot With Buildings | Taken as Location to Which to Move Lakeville School— | Its Many Advantages Will be Shown to Committee. that is the property which the state committee will be urged to decide upon as the location to which to remove the school now at Lakeville. Included among the buildings is a modern cat- tle barn capable of accommodating 40 head of stock. On the property there is a water supply capable of develop- ment to 20 million gallons, and ice supply and an icehouse. i Of the 400 acres in the tract, 25 acres are tillable and with a small expenditure in the future the tillable area could be increased by 100 acres. There is abundant wood on the land, both for fuel and for building. The location of the plot is another recommendation in its favor. Through the Yantic river that flows along one side it is naturally set off as an iso- lated plot. yet it is accessible on all sides, and it has a railway line run- ning through it from which a spur track could be extended as required for freight facilities for should it be located there. The city of Norwich and the village of Yantic are both close by and a trolley line from Norwich would make visitation an easy matter for those coming to see relatives or friends in the school. ‘The buildings are within half a mile of the city water main, so that it would be an easy matter to increase the water supply from there. Elec- tricity from the city lighting plant could also be secured. the school, RECALLS PRISON RELEASE FIFTY YEARS AGO Capt. “Eb” Woodward Was One to Come Out of Confederate Prison. Fifty vears ago Monday, March 1, -865, 600 of the 1,800 Union officers who had been confined in the differ- ent Confederate prisons, were sent through the lines at North E: Bridge, N. C.. six miles out from Wil- mington, N. C., for exchange. Among them were the officers of the ‘Eighteenth Connecticut regiment, who had been captured at Winchester,. Va., 21 months before. They had been in Libby, Danville, Mason and Columbia prisons. Prisoners at Charleston, S. C. had for three months been und fire from Union batteries at Morris Island. Speaking of the transfer one of the prisoners, Capt. John E. Woodward, | or Eb Woodward, as he was known during the years he was purser on Norwich line steamers, showed a keen memory of the event. Captain Wood- ward says: ““We were counted through the lines by the Union anq Confederate com- missions. There was a guard of Con- federates on one side and the Seventh Connecticut regiment on the other stood at present arms. We- passed into a plece of woods where we found 300 enlisted men from Salisbury, N. C. In the darkness of the woods we presented the appearance of an army of skeletons; we were so pale and so poorly clothed. Some of the men wore only a shirt and a pair of drawers; some only a blanket and drawers and hardly any of them had shoes to wear. | Some of them had become demented | from starvation and exposure. They could not tell their names or the regi- ments they belonged to. God only knows how they lived through it. “After all had gone through the get rid of your cooking things and keep your blankets. You are now in God’s country. We are glad to see you and we are going to feed you’ - “One mighty shout went up. The air was full of hats, blankets, tin pans and kettles. Men fell down and cried like babies and the general expression was ‘Thank God we are free once more!” “We were then marched out to the pontoon bridge over the Cape Fear river, which was at the foot of a hill. On the opposite side was a huge arc of greens and the word ‘Welcome, surmounted by Old Glory. At the sight of that flag the men went wild. They were simply crazy: lost all control of themselves. They cried, sang and shouteq themselves breathless. Some fell panting to the ground, thankful God for their release. “It was a spectacle, the impressive. ness of which 50 yvears cannot eras We were marched up the hill between two lines of guards—the Seventh Con- necticut on one side and the first col- ored troops we had ever seen on the other side. They stood at present arms while the 900 men marched by. | At the top of the hill we found 2 real- ization of heaven—coffee, hard tack, bacon and beans—and the first good meal we had had in many months. That night we slept in Wilmington ang the next day we officers were sent to Annapolis on the steamer Euterpe, Captain Mallory of Mystic, Conn." to GRANITEVILLE MAN CARRIED A GUN He Was Fined at Hearing Before Jus- tice of the Peace. Charles Loper of Graniteville was fined $40 and sentenced to 20 days in jail by Justice of the Peace Morris Lubchansky Saturday afternoon on a charge of carrying concealed weapons. He took .an appeal and was released on bonds of $250 furnished by his mother. Loper was arrested Saturday, Feb, 20 on a charge of adultery with Mrs. Flora Corey, wife of William Corey of Montville and his_case continued until last Saturday, Loper going to Jail in default of bonds of $1,000. Saturday when his case came up for a hearing, the state was unpi to go on, although the defendant was anxious to be tried. A continuance until Thursday was taken, but Justice of the Peace Lubchansky would not consent ‘to continuing the bonds which the accused was unable to furnish, in view of the fact that he was willing to be tried and Loper was released in the custody of his attorney, John J. Lawless. At the time of his arrest a revolver was found in Loper’s possession and a count of carrying concealed weapons was added to the complaint. Satur- day afternoon he was arraigned this count to which he pleaded guilty. His defense was that he had been ad- vised by his former counsel, Attorney George C. Morgan, to carry ‘weapon and he did not know it was against the law. Norwich Singers on Programme.

The Consumers’ league of Connec- ticut has introducea five bills in the present session of the general assem- bly. One is to increase the educational qualifications of children between 14 and 16 vears of age who leave school to go to work by requiring a knowl- edge of percentage. In 1909, ability to pass a test in fractions was made a requirement. Undr this law, the state board of education had much latitude in making out the tests, and has actu- ally been gradually raising the edu- cational requirements by making tests harder year by year. At first it re- quired only the ability to do the si plest examples in fractions awhile it required compound after another period it required dec- imal fractions. The limit has been reached in dealing with fractions, but by adding the subject of percentaze we make the same procedure possible for them. They may begin by requir- ing calculations in percentage only and later may add interest. A second bill asks for the appoint- ment of a woman vocational secretary to look after the educational interests of working girls. A third bill defines the meanings of the terms, manufacturing, mechanical, mercantile, factory and workshop. One department of state has been defining the Western Union Telegraph Co. as a mercantile establishment and enforc- ing the employment certificate law there; another has been defining it as not mercantile and not enforcing the hours of employment law there. Many establishments employing women de- clare that they do not come under the hours-of-employment law. In or- der to remove all misunderstanding, the league has introduced this bill, having drawn up these definitions on the basis of definitions already estab- lishéd by the Massachusetts law to- gether with recommendations made by our factory inspector. A fourth bill asks that mercantile establishments shall employ women and children not more than & hours a week. It aims to bring into line with the large department stores and drug sfores a great many small com- peting retail stores which are open several nights {n the week and more hours, A fifth bill asks for the abolition of night work for women between the hours of 10 p. m and 6 a. m. in fac- tories and after 9 p. m. in stores. Three factories in Connecticut are at present working night shifts of wo- men, largely to furnish supplies to the Furopean armies: The Winchester Re. peating Arms Co., the Union Metallic Cartridge Co., and the Connecticut Mills Co. In 1906, 14 nations of Eu- rope entered into an agreement to abolish night work for women in fac- tories, and England signed for nine colonies, including the Fili Islands; since then 16 other countries or prov- inces have entered into the same agreement, including Bulgaria, Ser- via, Manitoba, Victoria, New South Wales and so forth.

Tired, overworked Kkidneys allow poisonous uric acid to remain in the blood instead of expelling it from the system. That is the cause of chronic rheumatism. The disease gets into some joint or group of muscles and settles there, and only strenuous treatment will dislodge it. Rheuma softens the uric acid crys- tals lodged in the joints and muscles, causing the terrible pains, and passes them out of the system through the kidneys and bowels. All the blood in the body passes through the kidneys once every three minutes, Unless it is pure the organs become diseased. Rheuma purifies the blood and the kidneys, then regain their natural activity. Lee & Osgood and all druggists sell it is folly to be without it.
