Association Notes.

The annual meeting was held last week
Tuesday evening. There was not large
attendance but the various other events
of the evening were to large extent the
cause of the small attendance. There
were a number OF recommendations for
changes in the charter, the constitution
and bylaws, The most important were
the changing Of the time Of the annual
meeting from September to May, and
instead of having the entire board OF
directors elected annually. to have a
board, consisting of the officers Of the
association and nine others elected, elect
ing three each year to serve for term OF
three years each. These officers were
then elected:
President. E. L. Hunt.
Vice Pres, c. H. Dempsey.
Vice Pres, c. E. Somerville.
Treasurer, H. A. Hawley.
| Rec. Secretary, Prof. Stevenson.
Directors, George Ranney, F. II. Brooks,
]. M. Perham, Robert Mackinnon, Prot.
Henry Fairbanks, Rev. J. M. Frost, Rev.
A. F. Walch, c. c. Bingham, John o.
Hale, Carl Turner, M. S. Aldrich.
| Reports from the various officers were
very encouraging, and while all the bills
are not all paid, the association was
enabled to pay all the bill on last years
account and when all the money is col
lected that was pledged, will enable them
to make a good showing. The work
was outlined by the general secretary
who told something of the plans for the
coming season. The lines to be empha.
sized the coming winter will be the relig.
ious work, gymnasium, membership and
social work. The committees are to be
appointed soon and the work ready tC
start the first of October. The anniver.
sary will be held the first Sunday of Octo
Der. A number of speakers have already
been secured for the occasion. The pro
posed changes in the laws of the associa
ton will be voted upon at the next
annual meeting and will 60 into effect al
that timeif carried.
At last the building is clean from tor
to bottom. With little paint in place:
where it is needed it will make much

Do Not Dose the Stomach.
Cure Catarrh by Natures Own Method
Every breath of HyOmei Brings
DAhs af

IhClACAs
Nearly everyone who has catarrh
knows how foolish it is to try and cure
it by dragging the stomach. Tempo
rary relief may be given, but cure sell
dom comes.
Until recently your physician would
have said the only way to cure catarrh
would be to have change of climate
but now with Hyomei you can carry a
health giving climate in your vest pocket
and by breathing it few minutes four
times day soon cure yourself.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs but
$1.0O and consists of an inhaler that car
be carried in the vest pocket, a medicine
dropper and bottle of Hyomei. The
inhaler lasts lifetime, and if one bottle
does not cure, an extra bottle OF Hyome
can be obtained for so cents. 1t is the
most economical of all remedies adyer
tised for the cure of catarrh, and is the
only one that follows nature in hel
method of treating diseases of the res
piratory organs.
w. B. Eastman has sold great many
Hyome outfits and the more he sells thu
more convinced he is that he is perfectly
safe in guaranteeing to refund the money
if Hyomei does not cure.

Back In California.

A recent issue of the Whittier, CAL,
News has an interestingiitem about some
of our former residents:
Murray E. Clifford, wife and little
daughter, Hazel, who came here from Sc.
Johnsbury, Vermont, week or so ago,
have already made up their minds that
Whittier is good enough for them, and
this week they purchased of ]. T. Gar
rison the pretty place formerly owned by
Mrs. Mason, on Bright avenue. Mr.,
and Mrs. Clifford made many friends
here few years ago when they were
residents of this city, Mr.. Clifford at that
time being the proprietor of the c. ]
Hurst cafe. They found that Whittier
even from a distance OF 5000 miles, hat
too strong an attraction to resist, ant
have accordingly returned here with thu
idea of making this their home per
manently."

which Is conservatively estimated at
$SO0,OOOOO0. AS a merchant prince Mr..
Field does a business Of $60,OOO,O0O a
year. But he is not a merchant mere
| ly; he Is the greatest manufactures Of
dry goods IN the world.
In every country on the face Of the
globe, where cotton, wollen and silken
goods are manufactured in quantities,
| he has factories. He owns scores Of
enormous plants in England, Ireland,
Scotland, France, Spain, Italy, Ger
many, Austria and Russia. Even the
Orient is not neglected. Flooding Chi
nese and skilled japanese are num-
bered by the thousand on the pay roll
Of the Chicago merchant prince and
manufacturer, and on the other side Of
the equator are vast wooden mills in
Australia, the chain extending to South
America, where looms in Brazil and ad-
Joining republics turn out the finished
product.
Nor Is dry goods his only vocation.
No enterprise is better known in the
United States, England and Europe
than the Pullman Sleeping Car Com
pany. In the popular mind, George
NJ. Pullman has ever been deemed the
dominant factor in that vast and profit
able enterprise. When Mr. Pullman was
alive nine persons out of ten WouIi
have named him as a man Of greater
wealth and influence than Marshall
Field. But they would have been In
error. Marshall Field was and Is the
preatest single owner Of Pullman stock.
Pullman was a sort of head clerk.
Mr.. Field Is a large owner OF real
estate In Chicago and New York, and
in the Calumet iron region in Michigan
he owns hundreds of acres lie mas
heavy investments in railroad securi'
ties and in one road alone owns $lO'-
100000 worth of stocks.
Mr., Field has been conspicuous as
business man for more than genera
t!on. He was born in Conway, Mass,
August 10. 1885, and when II years Old,
firing of the farm, went West. .Locat-
ing in Chicago, he obtained a clerkshlp
in +he wholesale house Of Cooley, Far
well & Co., his equipment being health,
brains, sound principles and ambition
In four years he was made a partner
in the firm-196O. The war came, and
the advance in prices meant a small
fortune for the young men who con-
stituted this dry goods firm. During the
fonr years of the war they coined
money. In 1865 there was reorganl-
zotion, the new firm consisting Of Mar
shall Field, Levi 2. Letter and Potter
Palmer, Since 1881 Mr.. Field has con-
dncted the business alone.

Miss Morley of Winton Center had
never been twenty miles from her ma

"a weekly sheet which gives q
synopsis Of events and has choice ar
ticles as well, is more to my taste,

dignity, when frivolous summer resi-
dent offered the second reading Of her
New York daily paper. "The records
of crime are most distasteful to me,
whereas literature has a constantly in
creasing charm"
There came a day, however, when
only a timely explanation prevented
Miss Morley from changing the habit
of a lifetime. She had been one Of a
social gathering at the house of the
frivolous summer resident, and there
she had seen a Chicago banker and his
wife.
"They were fashionable, worldly ap.
pearing people," said Miss Morley, in
describing the party to the minister's
wife, who had been kept at home by
illness, "but l presume 1 am too quick
to judge by the outward seeming, for
