longs the praise and honor. l quote
from the secretary's book: Met at

Atchinson teacher of infant class, Dea

O. w. Hoyt, treasurer. Mrs A, G.
Barnes gave 81 to buy the first quar-
terlies with. The first summer we
hired an organ, with Mrs Adah, North
rop as organist and she has always
been organist, since that time. The
attendance during the first summer
averaged 80. The Sunday school clos

RHEUMATISM
CURED
BY DR. WILLIAMS PINK PILLS FOR
PALE PEOPLE,.
A RHODE ISLAND GIRL WHO SUFFERED
AGONIES FROM THIS TERRIBLE DIS
EASE is PERMANENTLY CURED.

Rheumatism is disease Of the blood
and must be treated through the blood.
External applications can give no
benefit that will last. The truth of the
above is we'll shown by the experience
of Miss J. B. Jameson, of No "a George
street, Providence, R. I. She says:
II had rheumatism in the knee and
it panied me dreadfully. Those who
have had this terrible affection know
what agonies 1 suffered. Liniments
gave me no lasting relief and l kept
getting worse. 1 became nervous and
all worn out, and also began to suffer
with severe pain in my side.
"My mother had taken DR. Williams
Pink Pills and obtained the very best
results from them and had given them
to me several years ago when was i'll.
They cured me then SO determined to
try them this time for my rheumatism
and nervousness. had not been using
them week before the pain began to
disappear, the nervousness to grow less
and in a short time was entirely my
self again. l have recommended Dr
Williams Pink Pills to my friends and
usually keep some on hand"
The real cause of rheumatism is the
presence of acid in the blood, which
initiates the sensitive tissues that
unite the joints and cover the muscles
thus causing those indescribable tor
lures which rheumatic sufferers en-
dure. DR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People go directly to the seat of the
trouble, exerting a powerful infiu
ence in purifying and enriching thu
blood by eliminating poisonous ele
ments and renewing health-givins

DEATH OF OSCAR sTAFFSTROM.
Oscar Staffstrom, who has lived for |
a few years on the so-called Mosely
Bronson place in the east part OF
Washington, died on Thursday, No
yember 20. Mr. Statfstrom had been
sick only few days, but his sickness
was of serious nature and suddenly
brought him to wandering and de-
lirious state and so violent at times
that it was necessary for the united
effort of several neighbors and the
doctor to restrain him. BY injections
of morphine and by final exhaustion
he settled into stupor aud sleep from
which he never aroused. Mr. Staff
strom was kind neighborand friend,
a man of kindly feelings, Of generous
impulses and of swift and compassion
ate action, and he has left in the path
way of his life many endearmentS in
the hearts of those with whom he la
bored and associated. He stood for
honor and integrity in dealing with
others and his word was his bond. His
sympathies were keen and his help
and services were always the nature of
gratuity. He scorned anything the
nature of tip. His life's career is
finished at 80 years of age. He was of
Swedish birth, coming to Connecticut
some Is years ago. He was of hardy
and vigorous family and till his last
sickness doctor had never been call
ed to attend him. His father died at
his house some three months ago and
he was worker OF the constant kind
and had subdued many brushy pas
ture and toiled hard till two or three
days before his death. Oscar Staff
[strom had worked with gang in re-
pair of roads for several years and he
was always known as simply Oscar
and that name always stood for work
we'll done and statement unquestion
ed. Often around name is organized
