Mrs. O, Bennett, 46 Palmer St., Nor- wich, says; “Some years ago one of 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 kidney secretions being irregular in passage. Doan's Kidney Pills, pro- cured at N. D. Sevin & Son’s Drug Store, brought prompf relief.” A LASTING EFFECT. _Almost three vears later Mrs. Ben- wgtt said: “Doan’s Kidney Pilis cured one of my family of kidney trouble some years ago and there has beeri no sign of it since.

SPECIAL TOWN MEETING cepted—Voted to Gravel a Section of Highway Between Dayvillo and Williamsville. Only a small number came out Mon- day afternoon for the special to meeting in the town hall. Town Clérk F. T. Preston called the meeting_to order and F. A. Jacobs was selected as_chairman. The first matters in the warning— the acceptance of streets at Industrial place—were quickly and favorably disposed of, the town voting to accept specified hishways, including Lewis Boulevard and Connecticut Mills ave- nue, in accordance with a survey made recently under the direction of the se- lectmen. No one appeared to talk for the ac- ceptance of Griffiths strect. so that matter was laid on the table, The meeting accepted the following report of the special committee rela- tive to town finance, but vote on the matter was deferred until the next special meeting on the third Monday in June, when the special committes appointed at Monday afternoon’s meet- ing to investigate relative to placing record vaults in the town hall build- ing and providing rooms there for the town clerk will make it report: To the Citizens of the Town of Kil- lingly Your committee appointed at the annual town meeting October, 1915, consisting of the treasurer, first se- lectman, Milton A. Shumway and Frederick A. Jacobs, to take the whole matter of borrowing money under consideration and report to the town, beg leave to report Immediate steps were taken respondence and_personal ints with prominent financiers and it was the conclusion of your committee that better terms could be made in the spring_towards floating a bond is- sue. Therefore, arrangements were made with local banking houses to take up the floating indebtedness of the town (bearing interest at 5 per cent) and place the same at 3 3-4. These loans being secured by short term notes. It is evident that this low rate of interest cannot continue long, but is liable.to be advanced upon the renewal of the notes, and if the Euro- pean war should suddenly cease, it is the consensus of opinion amonsz bankers that interest rates would be very much higher. There is no doubt in the minds of your committee that bonds of the town of Killingly, fo the amount of $75,000, can now be sold advantage- ously. They believe that a 4 1-4 per cent. serial bond issue can be located af a premium, as municipal bonds are now in good demand. The town of Putnam recently sold 4 1-4 pér cent. bonds at o premium and the fown of rague last month sold an issue of xso 000 of 4 per cent. bonds at a pre- Your committee recommend a serial FURNITURE--CARPETS Our aosorttnents unequalled in variety and attractiveness of style and price. tllm.

A few of the questions asked and the answers given by Mrs. Bartlett readily marketable, since the variety | in maturity meets the varied require- ments of institutions and individuals who are generally in the market for issues of this kind. Your committee recommend that the town of Killingly issue & 1-4 per cent. bonds for $75,000, maturing $3,000 each year, for the next twenty-five vears, and ‘in order to meet these bonds at maturity, the town levy a tax of 3-4 mills each year, the money Paised by this tax to pay up the bonds as they mature. In this way the town will gradually pay its indebtedness and thereby improve its financial standing.
