It seemed as though every joint in my body was involved, and the pain through my hins was almost unendurable. *“So many peopls had been helped through Var-ne-sis that I decided tc! try it, although I had very little faith that it would benefit me very much. 1 secured the medicinc and started tc take it faithfully, and after severaj months I could see a decided change i1| my condition; by continuing the treat ment every sign and symptom left me sven the hard swelling on the finge joints disappeared.

Swan garage located at the junciion of CIiff street and Franklin square wus practically destroyed by fire which broke out ahout & o'clock Eight - automobiles, liam W. Backus hos- pital ambulance, were almost totally de- stroved in the flames, the (otal loss to building and machines being estimated at $20,000. The loss on the building and on the majority of the destroyed machines is covered by insurance. The garage office and store and the stock room escaped the flames but were damaged to some extent by smoke and water, The machine shop and repair shop which comprised the garage prop- er are a totai loss, the wooden frame building in which the garage was locat- cd being badly gutted. The roof was ai- most completely destroyed, leaving only the walls standing. The New BEngland Chemical company which is located in a brick building in the rear of the garage escaped With slight damage. The- window frames on the south side were burnt and. there was some damage by water. The ma- chinery and most of the stock escaped injury. Flames Spread Rapidly. The fire started in one of the eight| automobiles in the repair shop when the engine short circuited and backfired while it was being cranked. The flames spread rapidly to nearby machines and to.the walls and ceiling of the story and] a half wooden frame structure. Within| a few seconds the interior of the ga-' Was a mass of hre | Ferry and Franklin square, | in anc at the same moment a telephone call reached the Central| Fire station. All the apparatus in the center of the city responded to the call. So rapidly had the fire spread that when the firemen arrived, the flames fed by gasolene and oil, were shooting through Bo; was pulled the roof and huge voiumes of dense black smoke were roliing out of the; doomed structure. The fire had gained such rapid head- way that it was impossible to save the repair shop or to rTun to safety the cight machines within the building The prompt and most efficient work of the fire department kept the flames con- fined to the repair chop and without| doubt prevented what would have been a most d trous fire in the heart of! the business section. of the city. Fight-| ing against odds, the firemen stub- bornly braved the suffocating smoke, intense heat and the possibility of ex- ploding gasolene tanks, and within a half hour had the fire under control. Half Dozen Lines Laid A half dozen lines of hose were laid by the department and Were soon pour- ing water into the heart of the flames.!

Although the recall was sounded 3:30 o'clock it was close on 1o five eo'clock before the last company rolled back to the Central Fire station. Eight Machines in Garage. In the garage were eight automobiles, including the automoi™: ambuiunce owned by the Backus hospital and onc or two public service cars. The am- bulance which was being overhauled. is| a complete wreck. The engine had Leen taken down and even if there had been time to run the machines to safety. it would have been impossible to move the ambulance. The body of the ambulance was burnt and charred beyond repair and the tires were virtually* baked. The loss is onl partially covered by insurance. The machine cost $3200 and the insurance on it is about $500. The ambulance was purchased for the hospital seven years ago by the women of Norwich through public subscription. Leon Hutchins, superintnedent of' the Backus hospital said Tuesday evening that the hospital will now have to fall back on the ol horse drawn ambulance which is at the hospital. The horse drawn ambulance will be used for stretcher cases and Supt. Hutchins said he will use his sev- en passenger touring car to transport other patients to and from the hospital When occasion arises. Loeal P. 8. Uar Destroyed rage was a public service car Packard, P. S. 100, owned by Lewis H. Swartz- burg of Maple street, this city. Mr. Swartzburg's car, which was in perfect condition, had been run into the garage to be greased. 1t is almost a total loss. The tires are badly burnt and the body, cushions, seats, etc., were destroyed. Two other cars, on either side of the Schwartzburg car, suffered «the same fate. The other touring cars destroyved were Cadillacs and there was also ~a Ford touring car. Machine Shop a Wreck The machine shop connected Wi h the garage is a wreck. The benches are badly burnt and charred and most of the ;. such as lathes, drills were damaged almost beyond repair. George Kramer of Greeneville who had his car at the garage for repairs had just run his machine out of the garage shor before the fire started. Smoke nd water is about the only done to the temement over the store occupied by Mrs, Mary A. Wolfe The. building is owned by Dr. A. I Howard of Linceln avenue.

Chief Stan- ton sa the convention went on record endorsing th movement as a othe fire prevention work. Not big asset t only are the scouts an aid in fire preven- tion, but also are at times of great as- sistance to the fire departments in other capacitie Chief Stanton spoke to the conven- vention on the methods of teachinz fire prevention in the schools and through the Boy Scouts in Norwich. Norwich wa apparently the only citv represented at the convention which teaches the nec-} essity of fire prevention in the kinder- gartens.

Allen and William McLoughlin. who were arrested Monday afternoon for op- erating a car without a license and la- ter found to have stolen the car from New London, were before the court on Tuesday morning.
