WHY WOMEN LOOK old.
Some Women Look Fresh and
Young at Fifty.
Others Appear Old and Dragged
Out at Twenty-Five.
Did it Ever Strike You That There Must
Be a Reason for This7

" How old look " is what women say
to their mirror.
The passing years are not what make
the average woman grow old in looks, but
the condition of nerve weakness, poor
blood and low vitality. Some women of
fifty preserve the youthful appearance of
twenty-five. The average woman of to-
day, however, appears old at thirty, with
dull, hollow-ringed eyes, thin, pinched,
pale cheeks, salow complexion, dark or
bloodless lips, the face lined, and the ex-
preston the opposite of vivacious.
With good digestion, strong nerves and
good blood any woman can keep herself
young, fresh and youthful appearing, and
she can attain this much desired condition
by using that greatest nerve and blood in
vigorator known to modern science, DR..
Greene's Nervura. 1t is positively aston
ishing what this remarkable remedy will
do for women. 1t is almost a Fountain
of Youth, for it renews and maintains
youth by creating perfect and complete
health. Just see what its use did for Mrs.
Ormiston Frain, of So Park Place, Passaic,

ADJOURNED MEETINGS.
PuGRIM Parish.

The adjourned annual parish meeting
of Pilgrim Church, held at the close of
the Wednesday evening prayer meeting,
was very largely attended. The meeting
was taken up with a consideration of
the financial side of the church work.
The collector, treasurer, auditors and
board Of trustees all made their annual
reports, after which the usual appropri-
atoms for the year were presented and
accepted. The meeting was adjourned
from some time in December, when the
annual election of officers took place.
The report of the collector presented
some interesting figures. 1t showed that
of all the sittings in the church, valued
at $4,000, 601 sittings were rented during
the past year, the income derived from
the same being $5349.10. During the year
113 additional sittings had been rented,
while g. sittings had been relinquished,
making net gain of 81 sittings and
a gain in the income derived from that
source of $241.50.
The treasurer's report dwelt mainly
upon the various funds of the church.
1t showed that the amount raised for
the debt fund for the year had been
$1976. 50, and for the interest fund
$1,000. 72. The total amount collected
during the year from all sources was
S12. OS7.86, while the total expenses had
been $11, S20.2S, leaving a balance OF
$679. "a on hand. AS nearly as the treas
urer could estimate, all the departments
of church work had together during the
year raised $14, 222.92.
The board of trustees, through John
M. Russell, made a report, in which the
present condition of the church's
finances, together with all the assets
and liabilities, was made plain. In the
report it was stated that arrangements
had been made whereby the interest on
the mortgage had been reduced from
to Az per cent annually, or saving OF
$3.50 per year.
The church appropriated $4,000 for
the expenses of the current year, of
which $4,000 was for the pastor, $4,000 for
interest and $4,000 for music and incl
dentals Horace Hobbs rather objected
to appropriating money for music and
incidentals combined but the appropria-
tions as presented were adopted, and
the matter of music was left with the
board of trustees.
PLYMOUTH PARISH.
The adjourned annual parish meeting
of Plymouth Church was held Wednes-
day evening, at the close of the usual
rnid-weekly prayer service. The meet
ing was of short duration, and but little
business was transacted. G. Henry
Whitcomb, on behalf of the committee
ON benevolence, of which he IS the
chairman, presented his annual report
1t was accepted and ordered printed
and distributed among the members of
the congregation next Sunday.
The matter of changing the hymnals
was discussed, but no formal action
taken upon this matter.

A Local Victim of New Law Prohibiting
Importation Into This Country.

Miss Lemina M. Rocheleau, daughter
of H. Louis Rocheleau of the firm Of
Rocheleau, Granger & Company, is
mourning the loss of a fine sealskin
sacque, which was taken from her by
the customs officers of the United States
last Saturday night, while she was on
her way home from Montreal. Since
Miss Rocheleau went to Canada, the
new law prohibiting the importing of
sealskin garments into this country or
their return, unless the owner secures
a certificate of possession before leav-
ing the country, went into effect, and
Miss Rocheleau's ignorance of this
fact cost her a fine garment She in
formed the customs officer when he
found her sacque that she had owned
it for the past five years. but he had to
do his duty, and confisca5ed the gar
ment although he was very courteous
in. doing So This left Miss Rocheleau
without any outer garment; but one of
the male passengers on the train came
to her assistance, and gave her a cape
which he was wearing on his heavy
overcoat.
Miss Rocheleau secured a certificate
from the Boston firm from which she
purchased the coat five years ago; and
this, with an AFFIDAVIT sworn to before
her counsel, John F Jandron, was sent
to the collector at st. Adams, VT, where
the sacque was seized.
