suinu tbeTown

Yesterday Registrar George R. Bill of the Third ward brought suit against the town to recover bill of $25O for services as regis trar. A copy of the writ, which is signed by John W. filling, commissioner of the Super for Court, summons the agent of the town to appear before the City Court, civil side, on Tuesday, November 16, to show cause why the bill should not be paid The suit arises out of the action of the selectmen who on Tuesday evening laid Mir. Bills bill on the table for one week, because he refused to place mans name on the registry list that had been ordered there by the board. The suit will probably settle the legal aspects of the case as regards the powers of the select men and registrars.

The ancients possessed knowledge of many valuable arts, all records and traces of which are lost. We, in our day. are slowly re-dis- covering what they discovered thousands of years ago; thus the discovery of the art of curing lung diseases may be regarded as re- covery of one of those lost arts. There is no record of death from such diseases among the ancients. Dr. Roberts Cough Syrup of Tar, Boneset and Wild Cherry, which is a sure cure for all diseases of the respiratory organs, no doubt embraces principles as old as disease itself.
