Easy on the woman and easy on the
clothes.
That's why progressive women are
washing their clothes with Fels-Naptha
IN cool or lukewarm water, in summer or
winter.
It's easy on the woman because it
does away with fires for heating water,
makes hard rubbing unnecessary and
takes less than half the time of the old
way Of washing.
It's easy on the clothes because there
is no boiling to make the clothes tender,
and no hard rubbing to wear them into
holes before their time.
Save yourself; save your clothes-use
Fels-Naptha.
Costs little money for big cake, and
lasts longer than ordinary soaps.
In using it follow directions printed
on the red and green wrapper.

Official notice has been served on Town. Treasurer J. M. PendIeton that Courtland P. Chapman has instituted suit against the town of Westerly in damages of $1,750 by reason of alleged injury to his property in connection with the rebuilding of the Watch Hill road about two years ago.
 Mir. Chapman, through his counsel, Judge John W. Sweeny, appealed from the action of the town council in ac- cepting the report of the committee on the layout of the road. as the sum al- lotted to MT. Chapman was not sat- isfactory, although verbal agreement with the committee fixed the sum specified in the report. The matter was taken to the superior court and the decree of the council was set aside. thus paving the way for the present suit.
 It is alleged that MT. Chapman of fered the town gratis as much of his land as was required in making the Improvements, under condition that his walls and fences would be satisfactori- ly rebuilt. No complaint came from MT. Chapman until after the work was completed. He then claimed that the town had taken more of his land than was necessary to make the improve ments, hence the suit. MT. Chapman is the only property owner on the Watch Hill road who claims damages by reason of the improvements.
