THE bOAN1NG Oh THE FAITH CURE
 About fifteen months ago Elmer Weimer, then of Meridsn, started project which re- suited in a handsome eight thousand dollar building being erected on hill which over- looks the Southington Driving park. The building was named by the elder the "Divine Restoration Home" and it was intended for faith cure patients. The building was put up by Meriden contractor and the money to pay for it was being raised by Elder Weimer, but he found that he had taken too much on his shoulders and when the funds ran cut the Merideu contractor put lien of $4 ,600 on the building Elder Weimer and his family have occupied apartments on the ground floor of the building, but most of the big building has been vacant and the elder was getting ready to move out soon and an out-of-town physician was arranging to take possession and turn it into a sanitarium However, on Friday morning about o'clock fire broke out in one of the upper rooms and in short time the building was entirely de- stroyed. The fremen could do little, no water being within quarter of mile. The building was insured for $4 500, the amount of the Meriden contractors lien.
