Telephone Lady Assistant get-together day, with outdoor sports, and other things in the line of en- tertainment, with possibly a play in the evening, by local people, On Wednesday the day will be given over to the grammar schools, with their sessions open to public inspec- tion, and a public mass meeting in the evening with speechmaking and sing- ing by a school chorus. Thursday will be the big day of the week. The morning will be devoted to exercises at the high school. In the afternoon the monster parade will take place and the address of the week, given by ex-President Willam H. Taft, will be delivered, probably at the ' playground of the American Thread company. Friday will be “Civic Day” when the interest and enthusiasm manifested for old Windham may be used in some way, either by a monster public meet- ing, or as may seem best, to the co- agulation of public sentiment on defl- nite plans for the future welfare of the town and city. In the evening a banquet will be held, with addresses. Saturday will probably mean a gen- eral exodus of visitors. A committee on memorabilia has been appointed, of which D. A. Lyman is chairman. It is hoped that every- one having knowledge of old records or relics, will get in touch with this committee as soon as possible, for this can be made one of the most im- portant parts of the work, and a suit- able display of mementoes of past, tribulations or frolics can be made a never failing source of pleasure to old grads and old residents. Plans for Sale of City lce. Now that bids have been <alled for the city ice, there has been consid- erable discussion in some quarters as to the proper method of Seiling the commodity. One sugeestion, which finds much support, is that the ice should be sold by the number of tons in the houses when they are opened in the summer, and not by the num- ber of tons stored in them when the houses are filled. This matter will come before the appropriate committee on March 18th, when the bids are opened. To Take Office April 1st. The question which everybody has been asking of Charles A.

There were also MEAT CAUSE OF KIDNEY TROUBLE Take a glass of “Salts if your Back hurts or Bladder bothers—Meat forms uric acid. 1t you must have your meat every day, eat it, but flush your kidneys with salts occasionally, says a noted author- ity who tells us that meat forms uric acid which almost paralyzes the kid- neys in their efforts to expel it from the blood. They become sluggish and ‘weaken, then you suffer with a dull misery in_the kidney region, shaip pains in the back or sick headache, dizziness, your stomach sours, tongue is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine gets cloudy, full of sediment, the channels often get sore and irritated, obliging you to seek relief two ur three times during the night. To neutralize these irritating acids, to cleanse the kidneys and flush off the body’s urinous waste, get four ounces of Jad Salts from any pharmacy here; take a tablespoonful in a glass cf water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This ‘famous salts is made from the acld of grapes and lemon juice, com- Dbined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize the acids in urine, 80 it no longer irri- tates, thus ending bladder weakness. Jod Salts is inexpensive; cannot in- jure, and makes a delightful efferves- cent lithia-water drink.

They were doliciting subscriptions for a maz- azine with each one they secured they hoped to get a vote In their favor. They visited the Riverside Grammar school where one of them, when asked where his place of residence was, be- came somewhat fresh. Nelther would give any definite an- swer, relative to where he lived or where they were hoping to attend col- lege. It was necessary finally to in- vite them to leave the building.

About 25 acres, prin- clpally bush and sprout land were burned over; also three hundred rods of rail fence were burned; the demage will amount to but little. This fire was no sooner out than A. A.

The fire started in the southern bor- der of the town of Plainfield and at incredible speed worked into Griswold and in late afternoon reached the wa- ter company's property.
