tion had hoated down to them and grounded in their garrets. The useless toggery was annually dragged from its dust bins and worn to do such duty as made the old veterans of 1776 lean back against the neigh boring fences and laugh till their rheumy eyes were dim.
 The importance assumed by the command CTS of these companies exceeded occasionally all attempts ct measurement. How to form the line, how to set it in motion, ,and above all how to stop it's impetuosity when onue start- cd, were problems the citizen officer felt no one could solve but himself. Frequently emergencies entered into these trainings, and circumstances arose, the which to manage was not laid down in any tactics these off cers possessed. It is alleged of the "West- siders" that on one occasion, while endeav- ing to outdo the 'East-sidsrs," they, by their military ciangor and vehemence, so ir- ritated an unadmiring colony of hornets as to cause the latter, like tho old Assyrians, to "come down like wolf on the fold" utterly routing the hitherto invincible warriors in second, and filling their places with their absence. This might have been over- looked, owing to the hotness of the attack, had the captain stood firm, but when 1t wac discovered that he himself had sought the shelter of . neighboring tree, and with ap- parent concern was intently examining the extent of his wounds on part of his body not necessarily vital, the "Eastsfders" gave way to one universal howl of merriment, the like of which no "trsining day" before or since ever heard. The "Westsiders" were never allowed to forget this signal disaster:
 As late as 1872 1t was customary, if muster day was stormy, to gather in the old Congregational church for drill and inspection, and many time the rattle ot the drum and the steady tramp of feet was heard within that sacred place. This practice, 1t seems, was common in the colony and had been continued here many years. To Deacon Joshua Barnes is sscribed the credit of ceas- ing this practice. Upon militiamsn's pot~ ting his feet on one occasion on the seats. Deacon Barnes remonstrated with him and was met by the rejoinder that ''it didn't hurt the old house." Turning to Captain Isaac 0. Stiles, who stood near, Deacon Barnes proposed that the next drill be held in the Episcopal church as fair change. By no means" said MT. Stiles, "our church is con. sscratsd to Almighty God" "Bs it so," said Deacon Barnes, "this ehall no longer be used in this way" And it never was.

The Useful Lem on.

Lemonade made from the juice of the lemon Is one of the best and safest drinks for any person, whether in health or not. It Is suitable for all stomach dissases, excellent in sickness, in case of jaundies, liver conn plaint, inflammation of the bowels and fe- yers. It is . specific against worms and skin complaints. The pippia crushed may be used with sugar and water taken as 8 drink. Lemon juice Is the best anticorbutio remedy known. It not only cures the dis- case but prevents 1t. Sailors mako daily use of it for this purpose. We advise every one to rub their gums with lemon juice to keep them in . healthy condition. The hands and nails are also kept clean, white, soft and supple by the daily use of lemon instead of soap. It also prevents ohilblains. Lemon is used in intermittent levers, mixed with strong hot, black coffee, without sugar. Neuralgia, 1t Is said, may be cured by rub bing the parts affected with cut lemon. It is valuable also to cure warts. It will re- move dandruff by rubbing the roots of the hair with It. It will alleviate and finally cure coughs and colds and heal diseased lungs, If taken hot on going to bed at night. Its uses are manifold, and the more we sm- ploy it internally the better VIC shall fad ourselves. A doctor in Rome is trying it ex- perimentally in malarisl levers with great success, and thinks that 1t will in time su- percede quinine.

These names, with the addition of a few others apparently non-residents of the town, made up the roster of "The North Haven Blues," an organization which added great prestige to the Tenth regiment, and which at one time was a crack corps.
 The causes which gave birth to this inds- pendent organization partly arose from pride Go have Q better equipped company than was the old militia body, and partly from dissat- isfaotion with Capt. Elizur 0. Futile, who at that time commanded 1t. Capt. Tuttle was 6 strict disoiplinsrian and had his own pe- culiar views of obedisnce and smilitary duty, and SO made himself somewhat obnoxious by frequent arbitrary fines imposed for slight causes on the men of his command. The ul- timate consequence was tho petition cited.
 Virgil N. Cook was at this time colonel of the regiment. He ordered an election at once, and on August 6th, 1888, the petition CTS met at Johu Ferrin's tavern (now the res idencs of Dea. N. W. Brown) and chose the following officers:
 Willis Churchill, captain; Peter L. vanhouten. lieutenaut: Isaac l.. Stiles, ensign.
 Ezra s. Munson, first sergeant Samuel E. Tyler, Charles F. Robinson, fourth sergeant.
 Charles Slade, first corporal; Justin Marks second corporal; Levi Churchill, third corporal: Orrin Mansfed, fourth corporal.
 Musicians Dennis Thorpe, Erus Bishop, Hobart Ives. Merritt Moulthrop.
 At this same meeting they adopted style of uniform which afterwards received the ap- proval of their regimental officer, and thus their organization was made complete.

The nervous system Is often in such condition that very slight causes or even no cause at al may ex- cite to sudden outbursts of anger. A feeling et pressure upon the brain is frequently followed by seasons of despondency. mental depression alter hating with periods of wild, illusive hopes. Vixen the brain begins to consume or decay, many O these symptoms become aggravated. The worla seems strange or different from what 1t in the rest thought becomes positive effort and life intense burden.
 Too often the victim of this great modern dis ease seeks to overcome these symptoms by stilnu- lants. Nothing could be more injurious. The sys tcm needs soothing, toning and building up. Something unusual is demanded. And here is where the great difficulty has always been-tofind something, pure and yet positive in its results.
