The piaintiff was taken out of the cor by the conductor with other help and brought into the Colling’ house where a doctor was immediately sam- .moned to elve medical ald to Rer. Neighboring ladies came to her as- sistance and gave such trestment as they were able to do to Mrs. Doyle, The plaintiff was then taken by the doctor, aided by another man, to her home, No, 330 West Main street.

Lamb of Town street from the Con- necticut Humane soclety of Hartford, of which Dr. Lamb has been agent for over thirty years: H. Clay Preston for five years in charge of the Erie Coun- ty Soclety for the Prevention of Cru- elty to Animals in Buffalo, N. Y, as- sumed charge Oct. 15th of the Con- necticut Humane society activities as Zeneral manager, laking over a part of the duties of the late president, . Dr, William DeLoss Love, one- time a2 Norwich resident. The Erie County Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals is one of the larger societies engaged exclusively in animal protection.

An ambu- lanee service is maintained, two fbr collecting sickd and unwanted small animals, and ope for the remaval of horses. Before going to Buffalo, Mr. Preston was connected with the Brooklyn Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, where for ten years as superintendent he engaged in rescue work among children.

Y, in the re- organization of an animal protection ‘Boctety, which was later merged with the Broome County Humane soclety, with interests combining both chiidren and antmals.

WHEN YOU WAKE UP DRINK GLASS OF HOT WATER —— Wash the poisons and toxins from system before putting more - ‘food into stomach. ‘Wash muel: on the inside ‘before breakfast like you do on the outside, This is vastly more important because the ckin pores do not absorb impuri- tles into the Dlood, causing iliness, while the bowel peres do. For every ounce of food and drink taken into the stomach, nearly an ounce of waste material must be carried out of-the body. If this waste material is not eliminated day by day it qmck!y ferments and generates gasses and toxins which are bsorbedor sucked inio biood stream, through the lymph ducts which should suck only nourishment to sustain the body. A splendid health measure is to drink, before breakfast each day, a|f glass of real not water with a fea- spoonful of limestone phosphate in it, which is a barmless way to wash these poisons, gasses and toxins from, the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels; thus cleansing, sweetening canal before putting more food into the stomach. A quarter pound of limestone phos- phate costs but very little at the drug store but is suffici an enthu returned. | Men have been at work for the past few lays on Town street laying under- ground cable for the Southern New England Telephone Co.
