ARENDT, Box 44, Remlig, Texas 2E-RU-NA THE REMEDY FOR EVERYDAY ILLS “I have used Pe-ru-na for years in cases of colds and Lacupia and can easily say it is one of the best blood puri- fiers I have ever used.” For Catarrh and Catarrhal Conditions The evidence of one man like Mr, Arendt is more convincing proof to youof the merits of Pe-ru-na than any written words of ours. For fifty years Po-ru-na has been the standby of the American Jamily for diseases due to catarrhal inflammation of the mucous membranes lining theorgans of the body. Thousands, like Mr. Arendt, have proved the effectiveness of Pe-ru-na for coughs, colds, n: and liver.disorders or any disease characterized by a catarrhal condition. 1f your suffering is the result of a catarrhal disorder try Pe-ru-na.

A visitor threw a bundle of 12 hack saws over the top of a grating and they were taken away from Trent after he had been chased inside. the prison.

Mr. ‘Downer . was. one of the seven candidates seeking the appointment. He will commence his duties soon, getting familiar. with the law at the work which e will perform when payments begin, on May 1. A gang of the strikers, forty or more, made a demonstration before the men in the émploy of a New London cor- tractor engaged in building a spur track to the new silk mill plant, and ‘threat- ened to do bodily harm unless the men quit work. Special Officer Burke remon- strated with the strikers, advised them not to resort to violence as it might in- jure their cause. - Other bodies of strikers went down Pleasant View way and tried to induce employes of the Newall company, of Uxbridge, Mass., to stop work on the highway and join their ranks. This the laborers from Massachusetts declined to do, as they were satisfied with their pay and were under agreement to continue work undér the firm's contract with the town of Westerly. It is said these men were warned by the strikers that if they were on the job, Thursday morning, there would be something doing. At the present time out-of-town con- tractors, five of them, have contracts for work in. Westerly, begun before the local laborers went on strike, and upon which no local men had been emploved, them in an effort to escape from a prison van, and Jean DsMarquette, serving five burglary, years for are the prisoners but jobs were open to them if they de- cr.((:'rh.’l;heresuhshavebeen sired o work.

Contractors have applied to the town council - for - police protection of their workmen from outside intimidation. The police* committee held a session follow- ing- which Police Chief Brown was in- structed to prepare for any emergency. Mr. J. F. Arendt Chief Browym does hot anticipate. any trouble. - He declares that the main body of the strikers is disposed to peaceable methods for the solution. of the situation and satisfied no good would come to the effort to secure more pay by resorting to methods unlawful. The strike, if not speedily settled, is liable to interfere with the progress of roads to Dradford and Pleasant View, the rebuilding of the Shore road, the Lorraine mill extension, the new silk mill, the work on the public highways, the sewer and water departments, and the general building throughout the town.
