BUTLER, Retiring Postmaster office department, and his zeal to es- tablish the best' possible service, coupled with his general personality, gave to Westerly an ideal postmaster. He leaves the service with the regrets of the townspeople, which gives him that feeling of self-satisfaction that he has served the government and the people faithfully. Mr. Butler was born in Birkenhead, England and when he was two vears old, his parents located in Irvington, N.'Y. When five years of age he reached Westerly and has resided here ever since. He attended the schools of Westerly, and when a young man entered the employ of the New Eng- land Granite works and became a gen- eral engineer and machinist at the works. He became connected with the post office almost by accident and never made an application for his first appointment. His brother, James But- ler, then, as now, was in the postal raflway service. ~Samuel Cross was postmaster, and Lyndon Taylor was clerk in the office and had resigned to become bookkeeper in the Willlam Clark Thread mill. Postmaster Cross sent for James Butler to call at the post office on a Sunday morning and Charles J. Butler accompanied him. Postmaster Cross offered the clerkship to James Butler, which was declined as the railway job was worth $1000 a year, while the salary of the post office clerk was $800. Then Postmaster Cross offered the clerkship to Charles J. Butler and the offer was accepted. Mr. Butler was appointed clerk by Postmaster Samgiel H. Cross, Febru- ary 1, 1892. Three years later he was | promoted to be assistant postmaster TRY THIS FORA COLD--IT’S FINE! “PAPE’S COLD COMPOUND” ENDS SEVERE COLDS OR GRIPPE IN FEW HOURS.

Clancy becamo postmaster, ‘Mr. Butler was continued as assistant. The late Walter Price was next postmaster, and Mr. Butler was assistant, during his two terms and a half of service, and untll Mr. Price died. On June 23, 1910, Mr. Butler was appointed post- master for a term of four years, his term expiring June 23, 1914. ‘Then there was a change of administration and Ke was ready to retire, to make room for a democrat. But the postal authorities evidently reluctant to part with his services, finally yielded to political power, over a year and a half after he expiration of his appoint- ment. Several months ago, in antici- ation of his retirement from the fed- eral servico he purchased an estab- lished coal business with which he is already more or less famillar.

Peacock made an admirable address on Interpretation and Preju- dice, based on a recent address by Professor Eugene E. Ayres, D. D, leading in a general discussion of the subject, in which all the ministers present expressed their views. In the course of the discussion it was brought out that a mind that harbors no dices is only an empty mind, and o an empty mind no new thought in be introduced.

To feel as fine as the proverbial fiddle, we must keep the liver washed clean, almost every morning, to pre- vent lts sponge-like pores from clog- ging with indigestible material, sour bile and poisonous toxins, says a noted physician, If you get headaches, It's your liver. If you catch cold casily, it's your liver. It you wake up with a bad taste, furred tongue, nasty breath or stomach be- comes ‘rancid, it's your liver. Sallow skin, muddy. ‘complexion, watery eyes all denote liver uncleanliness. Your liver is the most important, also the must abused and neglected organ of the body. Few know its function or how to release the damned-up body waste, bile and toxins. Most folks resort to violent calomel, which is a dangerous, sallvating chémical which can only be used occasionally because it accumulates In the tissues, also attacks the bones. Every man and woman, sick or well, should drihk each morping be- fore breakfast, a glass of hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phos- phate in it, to wash from the liver and bowels the previous day's indigestibl material, the poisons, sour bile and toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and freshening the entire alimentary canal before. putting more food into the stomach. Limestone phosphate does mot re- strict the dlet like calomel, because it can not salivate, for it is harmless and you can eat anythinz afterwards. It is inexpensive and almost tasteless, and_any pharmacist will sell you a quarter pound, which is_sufficient for a demonstration of how hot water and limestone prosphate cleans, stimulates and freshens the liver, keeping you feeling fit day in and day out. the charge of Pawcatuck Valley Equal Suffrage league, Mrs. W.
