rightly directed There is comfort in
the knowledge that SO many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to constipated condi-

remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. It's beneficial

one remedy which promotes internal

MARINE SEASON CLOSED.
Lake Vessels Now Sailing on Their own
Risks

Lake Vessels Now Sailing on Their own
Risks.
The marine season, as far as insur-
ance on first class boats is concerned,
closed at noon Thursday, ana vessels
on the lakes, that have not extended
their ir surance are navigating at their
own risk. Notwithstanding the fact
that during the past season a large
number of boats were wrecked, and
among them were several total losses,
the business Of the marine insurance
people was profitable, with the excep
ton, perhaps, of a very few companies
which were unfortunate enough to have
a couple Of total wrecks on their hands.
The freight season was not up to the
standard and the net earnings of vessel
owners is very small, and number of
them will be fortunate if they pay ex-
penses.

MR.. RoBLEE is WELCOME.
rhe Reception Given Him by the Congre-
gational Church

One Of the most beautiful sights
which ever greeted the eyes of the
Congregational people was that Of the
parlors OF the church Thursday even
ing. The occasion of their identifying
was the reception to be given to the
Rev. 81. s. Roblee and his family. It
was without any. question the most
handsome welcome ever given any
pastor of that church, if in fact it was
not the finest reception ever given in
this city upon any occasion.
The parlors of the church had been
taken in hand by the ladies of the
church and were decorated in most
excellent fashion. Fine pieces of fur
niture from the various homes of the
members were taken to the church and
so arranged as to give the .parlors the
appearance of pleasant home. The
success the ladies attained in this par
ticuIar was beyond the widest hopes of
those who attended, but who had had
no hand in the arrangements. Palms,
potted plants, roses, carnations and
smilax were handsomely disposed in
all parts of the room. Lamps were so
placed as to heighten the effect, maxi
ing a scene of homelikeness one seldom
sees equalled.
Rev. and Mrs. Roblee and daughter,
Miss Genevieve, were assisted in re-
ceivng by Judge Van yck, Mrs. }. j.
Hoyt and the Misses Weeks and Wells.
After the reception a supper was
served, at which about 200 covers we're
laid NTesdames o S. Newell and F. S.
Newell presided at the table. The
walters we're eight of the young ladies
of the church.
1t was needless to express in words
the welcome which was extended to
the new pastor of the church. Looks,
actions and surroundings all showed it,
and all were sufficient to spur any pas
tor to labor earnestly and long for such
a hospitable congregation.
Mr.. Roblee can be certain that he is
very welcome.
