And & could tell him also that he’s just like a million other men. It doesn’t make any difference whether he Sweet Caporals were the first American cigar- ette, the first blended cigarette and the firse pure and mild cigarette ever made. It may not interest him to hear that WEET Caporals have never been changed in over fonf' ears—nor that the London Lancet, the world’s leading medical journal, says that “Sweet § CAPORAL Cigarettes are the purest form in which tobacco can be smoked.” The thing that counts most with him is his first reason—"he likes ’em.” They are good CIGARETTES ~—which means that if you dom’t like Sweet Caporal Cigarettes you can get your money back from the dealer. Chauffeur Philip Pedro, in the em- pioy of George S. Babcock, whose sum- mer home is known as El Reposa, off the Watch Hill road. was held up While driving on the Potter Hill road at 10 o'- clock, Monday night, when near the Biddies place. Mr. Pedro.as was his custom, was driving to the Wayland | Lewis farm for vegetables, and was ac- companied by a woman also in- the em- ploy of the Babcock family. Pedro {was driving at moderate .speed when {iwo young -men, one masked and point- {ing a revolver at Pedro, stepped in front {of the machine and commanded Pedro to stop. This he did. He was then or- dered to hoid up his hands and get out of the automobile. He was next told to hand over his wallet, which he did, re- marking that it contained only his oper- ating license and that he had no mon- ley. The men were about to investigate |the latter statement, when another au- tomobile was approaching and the high- lwaymen took to the woods. | The approaching automobile was that of Rogers Trainer, znd with him was Mrs. Trainer, and they were on their Way jo their home in Potter Hill. Pedro held up the Trainer machine and Warn- ed Mr. Trainer to drive along in close company with the Pedro machine. This was done. After going a short distance Pedro told Mr. Trainer of the hold-up, lin explanation of his action. 1In the meantime Mr. and Mrs. Trainer had rea- son to believe that they were to be hold- up victims with Pedro as the bandit. Pedro believes but for the timely ar- rival of Mr. Trainer, the bandits would have become enraged at not securing any money and would probably have done him bodily harm. In the future, so says Pedro, he will mot heed re- quests for a ride after dark nor Wwill he {stop when ordered to by men to him un- known, and added that he will bs pre- parc@ for emergencies of this kind in the future. Tolice headquarters were notified and i Poticemen 1l and Champiin pro- | ceeded to the seene of the hold-up, inter- viewed Mr, Trainer and Mr. Pedro, re- ceived a fair description of the highwav- men from Mr. Pedro and began a search for the offenders.

A. Varney, Dear Sir— “‘ For seven years I did not know a day that I was without pain. All my joints were afflicted; when I moved my head I could hear and feel grating like there was gravel or sand in my neck. My knees were so drawn up I was unable to straighten jthem. To sit down I would have to literally fall in a chair. The last doctor said Iwould never get rid of the disease as it ‘was the worst form of rheumatism, Arthritis Deformans. I was in bed sixteen months. After taking Var-ne-sis, fligfin and stiffness became less noticeable.

The only thing remarkable about this coin_is its age, and there are undoubt- edly a numbdr in Westerly older than the one picked up by Mr, Doherty. Way- land Stillman has carried as a pocket- piece for more than twenty years one of the same date as-the Doherty coin. The obyéFse side is the same but on the re- verse side is the word Hibernia and the date, with Hibernia seated beside a harp; probably the cain that suggested Liberty and the shield for United States coins.
