Lo ArTerTHRER YEARS | (. A. R. FUNERAL AT WESTERLY Norwich Testimony Remains Unshaken. Time is the best test of truth. Here| William F. Hawkins Fifth Member of Hancock Post to Die Since Memorial Day—Death of Mrs. J. E. B. Santee— is a Norwich story that has stood the test of time. It isa story with a point which will come straight home to many of us. Mrs. C. Bennett, 46 Palmer St., Nor- wich, says: my family suffered from backache. Every cold settled on the kidneys and made the trouble worse. The kidneys were disordered, as was shown by the kifmey secretions being -irregular in passage. Doan’s Kidney Pills, pro- cured at N. D. Sevin & Son’s Drug Store, brought prompt relief. A LASTING EFFECT. Almost three vears later Mrs. Ben- nett said: ‘Doan’s Kidney Pills cured one of my family of kidney trouble some years ago and there has been no sign of it since. I willingly confirm my former endorsement of this medi- cine. Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan's Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs. Bennett has twice publicly rec- ommended. Foster-Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y. Many Children Have Worms.

CONNECTICUT’S SHIP FOR RELIEF OF BELGIUM To Sail About New Year's With Cargo insured Against Wreck and Sub- marines. In the statement issued from the headquarters of the Connecticut organ- ization for the relief of Belgium it is announced that when the good ship Pontoporos sails for Belglum she will be in every sense of the word a Con- necticut relief ship. Citles and towns in every quarter of the state have done their part, over 40 of them hav- ing contributed $100 or more apiece since the beginning of the campaign, while 26 others have each given more than $25. In all, 148 separate locali- ties are represented on the books of State Treasurer Russ. Instances of self-sacrifice, generosity and hard work are too numerous to mention. “A Working Woman of Hartford,” who gave of her little that some Belgian woman might have food and clothing, and the “Mite” from “One of the Poorest Churches in the State” are only two cases out of many. The school children of Southington illus- trated through their $20.88 in pennies what small gifts, backed. by earnest effort, can do in the aggregate. And S0 with the sixth grade of the Deep River grammar school, the school chil- dren of Derby, and many others. Se- lectman Miller of Avon was an espe- cially conspicuous although modest figufe when he made his house-to-house cany: in the midst of last week's blizzard, and workers in other towns were equally efficient. Two subscriptions of $500 were re- cently recei by the state commit- tee from individuals, and several of $100 each, but the multitude of smaller & constituted the bulk of the week's inflow. Among the churches, the coun- iry pariehes in general came forward far Detter than their city brethren, : and the total of their offerings amounted to a handsome sum. Several towns and cities have made sreat trides in the last ten days. The t gain was $1,030 by New Lon- then came Waterbury, Hartford, Haven and Bridgeport, each with than $500, while Manchester, more Wallingford, Derby, Stamford, Norfolk, East Hartford and Madison added from $400 to $100 apiece. Hartford and New Haven still lead the state in totals. An exciting con- test for third position is taking place between Bridgeport and Manchester, which are now only a few dollars apart. Both are near the $2,000 mark and hope to reach it before the new ear. New London is fifth, followed by amford, Middletown and Fairfield, all of which have passed $1,000 and are very closely grouped. Norwich stands next with about $850 to its credit. Word has been received from na- tional headquarters of the commission for relief in Belgium that the Con- necticut cargo will be fully insured, s0 that even if wreck or submarine disaster should be met with neither the Belgians nor the generous donors from Connecticut will suffer thereby. It is also announced that the saliing of the Connecticut ship has been post- poned a few days owing to her hav- ing been delayed in making port. In- deed, it is probable that she will not begin her voyage of mercy much be- fore Jan. 1st. All delayed gifts will be credited to Connecticut even though the supplies they purchase may actu- ally go on a later ship. Similarly, the state committee will credit to each town whatever is received from it, no matter how late, although the Hst by towns will probably be published about Jan. 1st. Accordingly, even belated contributions will still be welcomed by State Treasurer Charles C. Russ at the Hartford Trust company, or by Gen. William A. Aiken, 157 Washing- ton street, this city.

Sent to Another Field of Operations— Complimented by King George. very London, Dec. 27, 7.51 p. m.—A British Indian army corps has left France for another fleld of operations, it was of- ficially announced tonight. At the parade of the Indian army corps before it left France the follow- ing message from their king and em- peror was delivered to the men by the Prince of Wales: “More than a year ago I summoned you from India to fight for the safety of my empire and the honor of my pledged word on the battlefields of Bel- gium and France. The confidence which I then expressed in your sense of duty, your courage and your chival- vou since have nobly justified. ‘I now require your services in an- other field of action, but before you leave France I send my dear gallant son, the Prince of Wales, ed with my armies the dangers and hardships of the campaign, to thank you in my name for your ser- vices and to express to you my satis- faction. ‘British Indian comrades-in-arms, yours has been fellowship in toils, hardships, courage and endurance, of- ten against great odds, in deeds nobly done in days of ever-memorable conflict. In the warfare waged under new conditions and in peculiarly try- ing circumstances, vou have worthily upheld the honor of the empire and §h§ great traditions of my army in n who has have followed your fortunes with the deepest interest and watched your gallant actions with pride and satis- faction, and I mourn with you the loss of many gallant officers and men. Let it be your consolation, as their pride, they freely gave their lives in a just cause for the honor of their sove- reign and the safety of my empire. They died gallant soldiers, and I ehall ever hold their sacrifice in grateful re- membrance. “You leave France with just pride in bonorable deeds already achieved and with my assured confidence that your proved valor and experience will con- tribute to further victories in the fields of action to which you go. “I pray God to biess and guard you and bring you back safely when final victory is won, each to his own home, there to be welcomed with honor among his own people.” ASKS RECEIVERSHIP FOR TEXAS & PACIFIC ROAD. Bill Filed by the Bankers’ Trust Com- pany of New York. New York, Dec. 27.—The bill asking a receivership for the Texas and Pa- cific Railway company, flled at Dallas, Tex.. today by the Bankers’' Trust com- pany of New York as trustee of the second or income mortgage of the rail- road, is intended to ascertain and en- force the rights under that mortgage of the trustee and bondholders, accord- ing to a statement issued here by Alexander and Green, attorneys for the trust company. The petition was filled at the request of B. F. Bush, receiver of the St. Louis, Iron Mountain and Southern rallway, which is the owner, subject to pledge, the statement adds, of more than $23,- 000,000 of the $25,000,000 bonds issued under the mortgage. The bill alleges that for a number of years the income rom operation, instead of being ap- plied to payment of the interest on the income bonds, has been used for im- provements and other purposes. George J. Gould is president of the Texas and Pacific,c, which has been controlled by the Gould family since the days of Jay Gould. Recent author- itative figures show that the Missouri Pacific, which is also in the hands of a_receiver, and allled lines owned $6,- 555,000 of the Texas and Pacific’s out- standing shares.

Richard R. Graham, preach- ed his Christmas sermon from the text of Hebrews, 12: 27, 28 and 29, “And this word, yet once more, sig- nifieth the removing of those thinzs that are shaken, as of things which have been made, that those thines which are not shaken may remain. Wherefore receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us have grace, whereby we may offer services well- pleasing to God_ with reverence and awe: for our God is a consuming fire. More Faith, Deeper Confidence, Needed When any great shaking takes place there is always the danger of con- fusing the permanent with the tran- scient. When everything around us is tottering because we ourselves are shaken we cannot always distinguish between the stable and the unstable. Then it is that we need more faith, that is a deeper confidence in the great truths of God and in the funda- mentals of our religious beiief. And with the world at war, or in the shadow of war, the character of the Christmas message cannot be alto- gether the same as it was in those years when it seemed to us that there was_fulfilment, or promise of fulfil- ment, of the angels' song of peace on earth. When there is thus an apparent failure to realize a hope founded on what seemed to be the sure promise of God we are forced to examine that promise more care- fully so that we may see its meanin: | more fully. ! And thus it is with the Christm message. We need to grasp, to h fast to its essential meaning un turbed by any failure we miay to see in what we had thought its_significance. The war has certainly awakened actual or ns to a new conviction of the difficulty if not the impossibility of obedience to the commands of Christ, those commands which if obeyel would bring about the condition of perfes and permanent peace of which we dream, in which war would be an im- possibilit Does God Care? Nineteen centuries of experienc- have, however, accustomed us to the contrast between things they arc and the expectations sux, promises of the gospel terrible may be this war it does not differ so essentially from other wars that have been waged; all were eq: ly in contradiction to the song peace on earth, even though we be accustomed to think of some these wars as righteous w the magnitude of this war so far ceeds all othe that it not alone sted by the and however P pals us by its immensity, but forces us to see things in a different as- pect. Just as the newly perceiv immensity of time and space forc men to a new conception of God, the immensity of this war has led us to think in larger terms, and this on- largement has caused a shaking of our faith. Some millions of men will be sacrificed before peace is declared and many more millions will be dis- abled, or crushed with sorrow. Does God care? After all what are a few million lives compared to the count- less millions that have lived and died during the unnumbered centuries in which man has lived upon this earth? If on an average these men who have fallen died some 30 years before their time, what are 30 vears in the mind of Him whose days are from ever- lasting to everlasting? Such questions will arise in our minds: they will suggest the idea that God does not care; that He is in- different to the trivial affairs of this little world. And this is not only the supreme, but the characteristic temptation of our age, and therefore the one before which we are most in danger of fall- ing. At other times in the religious history of mankind when great cala- mities befell the world, the explana- tion was that God was angry and had sent these calamities as a pun.sh- ment for sin, and therefore the peaple were forced to rch for and ac- knowledge their sins. But an angry God is obvlously a God who cares, or else He would not be angry. Now, however, when events occur which seem to contradict v had seemed to us the plans and rur poses of God, the tendency is to fecl. if there be indeed a God He is such as to have no plans or purposes for the world because He does not care a* all for the things which seen so im- portant to us. If then, this be the supreme tempta tion for us; if the circumstances of the times force this temptation upon us, then what we need to be assured of is, not How does God show His care for the world? but, Does He cure at all?; is it true that the High and Holy One that inhabiteth eternity Joes stoop to behold the children of the dust? The Inner Message of Christmas. And the essential message f Christ- mas is that God does care, because He cared enough, nay loved the world enough to give His only begotten S m, that is really to give Himsef for the sake of the world. This, the irner message of Christmas, is altogether independent of the particular circum- stances of the earth life of the Secn of Man, or the special form nis tearh- ing took, or even whether He came to save or to judge the worid; whsat- ever the circumstances, whatever the final purpose of that coming may be, the fact of the coming is the proof of God's care for the world. Therefore, if at this time we cun hardly hear the angels sing, because the roar of battle is too loud in our ears; if the lovely message of Christ- mas peace seems too untimely if not improbable under existing circum- stances let us give all the more at- tention to that deeper, and perhops less thought of meaning of the Christ- mas revelation which assures that there is a God who cares for mankind If we fAnd it hard to hail Him who at this time was born for us as the Prince of Peace, let us recognize that He is also Emmanuel, God with us; for if we do our sure trust in 1 will remain unshaken no matter what may occur; and the God who shuws Himself as a consuming fire will be seen to be the God who “so ioved the yorld that He gave His only begotten on.” ALL LOWER CALIFORNIA TURNED OVER TO CARRANZA.

Pain is a visitor to every home and usually it comes quite unexpectedly. But you are prepared for every emer- gency if you keep a ‘small bottle of Sloan’s Liniment handy. It is the greatest pain killer ever discovered. Simply laid on the skin—no rubbing required—it drives the pain away. It is_really wonderful. Mervin H. Soister, Berkeley, Cal, writes: “Last Saturday, after tramp- ing around the Panama exposition with wet feet, I came home with my neck so stiff that I couldn’t turn. I ap- plied Sloan’s Liniment freely and went to bed. To my surprise, next morn- ing the stiffness had almost disappear- ed, four hours after the second appli- cation I was as g00od as new.” March, 1915. At Druggists. 25c.
