Francis George, the Liverpool bell
man, is to retire from the service Of the
city, after a public career extending
over n period Of sixty years. He was
ordinarily O member of the old dock
police force. 1t Is said that at n time
the office of bellman was worth to the
person who held 1t about $500 per an
num-. In addition to making public
proclamations, 1t was part Of the bell
mans duty on all civic occasions to
walk before the Mayor Of Liverpool
with q portion Of the regalia. 1t was
Mr.. Georges distinction In that capaci-
~ during his long period of office to
walk before fifty-three Mayors. In these
later days the office of bellman has be-
come practically a sinecure. The du-
ties which he had to discharge have
become obsolete, and other means OF
announcement have superseded that OF
the bellman. Up to the present, how
ever, to the bellman's house In Greek

fee, Mr.. George has received from po'
lice officers at the bellman's house the
custody of no fewer than 10000 stray
children, whom he restored to their
parents. Latterly this was the old
bellman's chief emolument, each paren'
paying Cd. for the recovery of the lost
children, and f25 a year was granted
to Mr.. George from the corporation.

ton to Business. A Great sufferer

Recovered.
(From the Springfield, Lass, Union)
There isn't a gun manufacturer in the
United States who does not know Jefferson
NJ. Clough, and why2 Because he has been
intimately associated all his life with the de-
~velopment Of the two best American rides,
the Remington and Winchester. For years
he was Superintendent Of the E. Remington
& Sons great factory at Ilon,'N. Y. After
leaving there he refused a tempting offer OF
the Chinese Government to go to China to
superintend their government factories, -
and accepted instead the superintendency of
the Winchester-Arms Co., at New Haven, al
a salary Of o., 500 a year.
1t was after this long term OF active labor
ns a business man that he found himself In
capacitated for further servlce by the en-
barge which rheumatism had laid upon him
and resigned hts position more than two
years ago, and returned to Belchertown,
Mass, where he now lives and OWNS the
Phelps farm, a retired spot where he has Ave
hundred acres Of land.
Being a man OF means he did not spare the
cost and was treated by leading physicians
and by baths at celebrated springs without
receiving any benefit worth notice. During
the summer Of 1898 and the winter of 1894
Mr.. Clough was confined to his house in
Belchertown, being unable to rise from his
bed without assistance, and suffering Coz
tinually with acute pains and with NO taste
or desire for food, nor was no able to obtain
mficient sleep.
Early in the year 1894 MI. Clough heard OF
DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People
He began taking these pills about the lrst of
March, 1894, and continued to do SO until
the first part of September following. Tho
first effect noticed was a better appetite and
be began to note more ability to help himself
off the bed and to be better generally. Last
August (1894) he was able to go alone to his
summer residence and farm OF 1853 acres on
Grenadier Island, among the Thousa 4
Islands, in the river 81. Lawrence, where
from the highest land Of his farm he COM
mands a view for IS miles down the river,
and 60 of the Thousand Islands can be seen.
Instead of being confined to his bed Mr..
Clough Is now and has been for some time
able to be about the farm to direct the
men employed there and he is thankful for
what DR.. Williams Pink Pills have done for
him.
These pills are manufactured by tho DR..
Williams Medicine Company, Schenectady,
N. Y, and are sold only In boxes bearing the
arms trade mark and wrapper, at so cents a
box or six boxes for %. 80, and are never sold
In bulk. They may be had Of all druggists
Or direct by mail from DR.. Williams Medi-
zine Company.
