NORWICH TOWN.
Death of Charles E. Treadway-Funer- al of John Desmond-Lightning Strikes Greenhouse Furnace-Sunday Sermons.

In 1885 Joshua Yeomans, a soldier of the Revolution, who fought at Bunker Hill, died at his home near what is now Hospital corner. It was deemed fitting to give him a military burial; it was the first military funeral in Nor Wich.
 Colonel Converse wrote of this fu- neral twelve years ago. Colonel Con-. verse was one of the Rifle Guards, a company attached to the Eighteenth regiment.) They marched in a body to the house. There with folded flags, muffled drums and reversed arms they waited while the coffin shrouded in the flag was borne out.
 At the first tap of the drum the bell began to toll and the regiment and people proceeded on foot to the old cemetery. There the military formed in double platoons each side of the grave After the prayer three volleys were fired over the grave of the soldier and patriot.
 The Bulletin containing the account at length is in the possession of Cap tain Yeomans' grandson, George l.. Yeomans, of the Falls.

Rev. Jerome eresr's Sermon.

At the Methodist Episcopal church on Sunday morning Rev. Mir. Greer took for his text Rev. 3-s: Behold. I set before you an open door and no man can shut It." An open door means an opportunity to enter. The open door promised by Christ to the Phila- delphiansi is but Q symbol of that set before his people today. The open door of missions and reform work along diff ferent lines confront us. The freeing of the slave in the days of our fathers illustrates this. There is an open door of privilege for each one of us which we may enter or refuse to enter. No man can shut the door against us If we choose to enter.

men will ever have the honor to show the world the dignity and virtue of war more conclusively than the men of '60-'65. Moreover, no more fitting place in which to pay tribute can be found than place of worship, Catho- lie or Protestant, because the cause which they died to serve in its last analysis was a religious one. They died to make men free.
 In scores of cemeteries tomorrow will be seen planted the stars and stripes and over two million of flags will wave among the wreaths of love. These flags above two million graves are the proc lamations of great truths. They teach the preciousness of principle. The struggle of principle was on. Thank God, evil was put down and right pre- vailed. Great principles are precious because they bring out the best that is in us. because they cost so much.
 These flags teach us the value of in- dividual service. The nation had a great president, but he couldn't solve the problem. It had great generals, men of brain, of brawn, of bravery and skill, but they couldn't do it. What did 1t? It was the response, the ser vice, the faithfulness of individuals who rendered a kingly service that Is recognized the world over. And final ly these flags spur us on in the cause of right May God lead us, guard us, and give us the victory in this cause.
 The Souls Memorial Day.
 At the First. Baptist church Sun day morning, taking as his text, "the first day of the week. (Luke xxiv: D. Rev. MT. Thayer announced his theme The Souls Memorial Day. This day is doubly sacred, to the patriot because of what 1t means to his citizenship and his nation; to the Christian because of what 1t means to his soul and the kingdom of God, and the patriot and Christian should be one. The analogy between Memorial day and Sunday is striking. One reminds us of the sac rifce of our nations heroes for an enslaved people; the other of the sac

Rev. George H. Ewing on A New
 patrintisrn

At the First Congregational church on Sunday morning Rev. Mir Ewing took for his text For our citizenship is in heaven" Phil. 3-z0. He said:
 One of the most serious counts in the modern arraignment of the church is that church people spend their en- ergies in fitting themselves for heaven to the neglect of the practical problems of human living. The charge must pc met by a new patriotism-a well di- rected enthusiasm for civic righteous ness. We need to start a crusade to redeem society as the home of the liv- ing Christ

THE MEN OF IRON.

| sing of the Men of Iron,
Who in the days gone by,
Full fifty years and more ago,
| Through winters numbing, drifting
snow,
And then when summers sun was
high,
| BraveIy built the iron highway
Over Indian trail and byway,
Over the wilder west,
Over the mountain crest,
Over the rivers breast.
Aye, sing OF the Men of Iron;
Young men who dreamed the dreams,
Old men who saw the visions grand
Of western empire, mighty spanned
By engine-traveled trail that CLEANS
From where the lakes and streams
abound
On and one to Puget Sound.
Over prairies wide,
Over the Main Divide,
On to the oceans side.
Yes; sing of these Men of Iron;
Undying be their fame.
For many a graceful, arching bridge,
And many a conquered mountain
ridge,
And many a city bears their name.
Empire builders, they Of old
Poets, prophets, princes bold:
Men of Iron-strong.
To you shall e'er belong
A glad, triumphant song.

Dreams Rule the World.

The Interpreter, American Maya
Zine.-The world would go to pieces
without its dreams. 1t is all that
holds any one of us to the grindstone
all that forces US to support the
chain of convention and the burden
we call duty. Somehow there has
come into us a vision of a thing we
might do or bet may be the picture
OF a trivial or fantastic thing. But it
is what we live up to.
My 6-year-old youngster is today
living up to his dream of being a DO
liceman some day. He walks straight
en- strides longer because of it and he
loves to pilot his mother across the
road and to hold up his hand and see
the COachman stop the horses to
please him. Four years from now
he'll dream of a football captaincy
and try to live up to it. Eight years
from now, of college honors, perhaps,
and who can tell of what he will
dream at 81? All know is that OF
what he dreams then depends his
hearts content through life.
[ count on the ideal of Womanliness
his sister is forming to keep her
straight through life. 1t is all that
saves women in my judgment-a Wis
ion that pulls them back as they are
stepping over the precipice-that i'm.
pels thousands of them to climb back
after they have stepped over. Dreams
rule us. They are the compelling
force of the young, the staying force
of the middle-aged. Dull them and
life duIls with them. Take them from
Us and we are seldom plodding beasts.

pretty fine creed. Demand laughter
and tears in the drama you pay for.
The laughter will tonic you, and the
tears will chaser. Then the message
has been delivered. The author and
actor have served.
ITO wake the soul by tender strokes
of art,
To raise the genius and to mend the
heart,
To make mankind in conscious virtue
bold,
Live DER each scene, and be what
they behold;
For this the tragic muse first trod
the stage,
Commanding tears to stream through
every age"

THUMB PRINTS ALL DIFFERENT

1t is a strange thing that while all
people are more or less alike, still no
two human beings have ever been
found who showed themselves exact
ly alike when compared closely, Nat
ure is unlike man, for she never
makes even two leaves alike; all her
work bears the marks of handicraft-
manship In the identification of Grim
mails it is sometimes necessary to
take advantage of the slightest pers-
Onal characteristics. NJ. Bertillion, a
great Frenchman. has made a life
study of this matter of Identification,
and his methods are now used in
many countries. BY measuring diff
erent parts of the body he is able to
identify any person from every other
person in the world.
Thumb-prints are so found to be a
sure means of identicaftion, and our
government has adopted the system
of having the Indians sign their pa
pers with prints of their thumbs, for
, these cannot be forged or counterfeit
ed In a criminal case in Paris re-
Gently the cuIprit was identified and
brought to justice purely through the
telItaIe thumb-marks he had left on
a bottle When his own and the sus-
pected marks were magnified and COM
pared they were seen to correspond
precisely. Compare the little ridges
on your thumb closely with those OF
some else's and you will find that
there are always slight differences.
These differences persist in each per
son throughout life. A thumb-print
autograph album, in which you have
your friends sign with their thums,
daubed with ink, as well as their or
binary handwriting, are interesting
fads.
There is a new devil or apprent-
ice in the Pathfinder office, and he
seems to be a victim of this thumb
print craze, for we find his finger
marks scattered over everything he
has touched-and that is pretty much
everything within a mile Of his pain.
He has been cautioned repeatedly TO
keep his hands clean, but he is a boy,
and that is perhaps too much to eX-
pect (There, now, he has gone and
left one of his thumb marks right on
this paper He asks, however, that
you will please excuse him, as he
didn't mean to, and promises that
hereafter he will be more CAREFUL

Mendinu STOCKINGS.

When children's stockings begin to
get thin on the knee, cut the legs off
at ankle, turn backs to front and sew
OH neatly. They will wear again as
long. When they finally do come to
stocking like the one you are mend
ing, sew a good firm patch on wrong
side, then cut the worn place out
neatly and hem down edges. They
will look heater than SO many darns
and wear longer. Nor does it take as
long to mend them this way.

When the heart action IS
weak, it fails to pump the blood
through the lungs with sufficient
rapidity. Then the lungs do not
absorb the proper amount OF
oxygen, although they may be
taking IN normal amount OF
air. The result is shortness OF
breath, smothering spells, diff
cult breathing, oppressed feeling
in chest. DR.. Miles Heart Rem
edy strengthens the heart nerves
and muscles, and in this way
increases the circulation.
