WASHINGTON.
TIE POoUAssET CLUB.

The Poquasset club, a social organlza- tion which has existed in Washington for the last four or five years, has lately branched out in new direction. It was organized originally with two purposes in view, one to earn money, so that an available fund might always be on hand, to lend pecuniary aid to any unfortunate family or individual and for making gen eral local Improvements and the other as a means of drawing together the resi- dents of Washington for social enjoy ments and fostering public spirit among the townspeople. Formerly the money was raised through the efforts of the members who earned it, by getting up plays and giving various performances and the meeting were given up to card playing and social entertainments. But now they have decided to hold meetings once a week at the different member houses and at those meetings to make different articles the sale of which it is hoped will bring quite a sum into the club treasary. The president is Dr Will liam J. Ford and the treasurer and secre tary is A. c. Baker.

 MT. Lawlcr was hardly able to attend to business and drspaired of ever finding relief. He had lost flesh and appetite, strength, ard ever desire for life. Dr. Kennedy prescribed Favorite Remedy. told him 10 follow closely the printed directions and to write him as to his con- dition in few weeks
 Mir. Lawicr had little idea or hope that the treatment he was about to follow would start him anew upon life of health and happiness.
 To state from Mir. Lawlcr's letter to Dr. Kennedy, few weeks after.

I weigh 176 lbs coStiveness and rheumatism have entirely left me. l wish also to say that in every case where l have recommended Fayorite Remedy, it has rot in a single instance failed to effect a speedy cure"
 The case is a remarkable one and will add still further to the reputation Dr. Kennedy's Favorite Remedy has acquired. Many regular physicians are prescribe | ing it. P rscns suffering with these | diseases, ortAose run down either from | overwork, or the changing seasons, sleep | lessness, or nervous prostration and | women suffering from the ills peculiar to l their sex, should obtain this medicine at once.

On Satur- day last, Main street was unusually lively with sleigh riders and the jingle of sleigh bells, with little merry laughter, the icy atmosphere closing the mouth of the girls against hearty giggling.
