Unsafe Investments the Subject of Rev. C. H. Ricketts at Congregational Church-WeekIy Whist-Local Inter ests.

At the GreeneviIle Congrega ational church Sunday morning the pastor, Rev. Charles H. Riclzetts, spoke to a large congregation on the subject Un- 12:21
 fhe speaker said in part: The world has always had it's market places where men bought and sold. The question of investment has always en- gagged the serious thought Of men. Where can I put the little I have to the best advantage? Remember there is no more dishonor in receiving 20 per cent. on your investment than 2, pro vided you are not making the other fellow pay the extra percentage. We need to ppIy the parable of the talents in our modern tendency to indiscrimi- nately criticize rich men. It is wrong when in the getting, the keeping and the using of wealth God and humanity are forgotten With God left out of account, every investment is unsafe.
 Where one lives for a merely selfish purpose the investment of ones time, money and strength is unsafe, because one is not rich toward God. The first way to be rich toward God is to lay up treasure for myself with the right end in view. The really successful man who discovers early in life what his mission is and does it. The failure is the man who does not thus discover and consequently does not do. Occu- patton, provided it is decent, makes no difference in acquiring spiritual riches. The bod carrier has equal chances with the minister in being rich toward God I most gather for myself from every conC>-, able source so as to be in the best physical, mental, moral and spiritual condition for un- derstanding His will and doing His work. It is in this sense that I must lay up treasure for myself.
 A second way IS in doing the best one can for his family, holding up before them the influence Of upright and god ly living. Third one ought to lay up treasure for other people. One ought to look upon his mission as the 43hysi- cal and spiritual means of uplifting others. To do this is to make a safe investment.

Arrangements for State Banquet
day Night-Speakers of Prominenee-Politicians Get ting their Favorites Out-Mayor Lippitt for State Treasurer

President Taft and several thousand other visitors tasted the quality of Norwich hospitality last July and found that it left sweet flavor as they sped homeward past the lovely pano- ! rama of river scenery for which this city stands as grand figurehead. says the New York Herald on Sunday under a Norwich date. Their experience of tine capacity of Norwich for entertain ing a great throng such as descended upon the city at that time is a suffl- ciently broad basis for a confident as- sertion that Norwich will be fully equal to the occasion when it comes to the annual banquet of the Connecticut Mo political function will be held at the Hotel Wauregan next Friday evening.
 The banquet which for convenience will be held on the evening before the birthday of the martyred president, will be the seventh of the Connecticut as- sociation. The association has remain ed true to the ideals of the earliest promoters of Carnation day, and still makes the annual affair the occasion for the summing up of MT. McKinley's s career and the pronouncement of judg- ment upon his character and acts by a national celebrity who was in the late presidents confidence.
 This year the speaker to fulfill that mission will be Representative Ralph Cole of Ohio. Although MT. Cole knew Mir. Mckinley, and knew him we'll his vision was not distorted by proximity nor does he need the perspective which the lapse of years begets.
 Norris $. LipPitt of this city, presi- dent of the Connecticut Mckinley as- sociation, is to be felicitated upon his success in bringing Representative Cole here, which he was enabled to do through the good offices of Represent ative at Large John 0. Tilson of New Haven. whose services he enlisted in that direction.
 But MT. Lippitt is to be congratulat- ed not one whit the less upon the home talent he has provided for the signified their intention Of being pres- ent Friday evening. His father, Mayor Costello Lippitt, will be the welcoming speaker, and the others will be Gov. formerly governor, and State Senat tor Charles F. Searls- United States Sen- ator Morgan G. Bulkeley has been in- vfted to speei< and alas written from Washington that he will do so if pos sible.
 Mir. Lippitt has had hearty help in arrangements for the banquet from his fellow toWnsman, Tyler Cruttenden, assistant secretary of the Connecticut Mckinley association. Twelve hundred invitations have been issued.
 Not only the Mclean and BullSeley men will measure their strength at the dinner Friday evening. The friends and supporters of all the politically ambitious will be out in force. But it is not expected that anything will happen at the dinner to alter the course of events or recast the political dies which are already in the planers and lathes. The boom that comes here to invoke the midnight spectral skies is not destined to be f1edged with the sunlight the next morning.
 Mir. Lippitt for Treasurer.

Acid Dyspepsia
Nervous People Are Frequent Sufferers From Too Much Hydr0cEIoric Acid
 In the Stomach.
A Trial Package of Stuart's Dyspepsia
 Tablets Sent Free.

Sour stomach" or acid dyspepsia. IS @ form of indig estfon in which en- t1rely too much hydrochloric acid Is secreted by the stomach. A sour mon symptom of acid dyspepsia; and the saliva, which is normally alkaline. is found. when tested. to be changed of what it should be. and is a state of the secretion which causes rapid and extensive destruction of the teeth.
 Everything eaten turns more or less sour in the stomach, but sweets and acid fruits are far worse in this re- spect than other foods. If the erue- tation of liquids from the stomach occurs, they have such an extremely sour taste as to set the teeth on edge.
 Hydrochloric acid is an important constituent in the gastric juice, but when too much of it is secreted. it does positive harm to the mucous lin ing of the stomach; and when acid dyspepsia Is long continued it often and other serious diseases. The pre- mature loss of all the teeth has been caused by acid saliva, which was de- pendent upon the excessively acid con- dition of the stomach.
 STUART'S DYSPEPSIA TABLETS. besides furnishing pure. aseptic pep sin to the stomach to dilute the excess of hydrochloric acid. and to digest proteids and albuminous foods very thoroughly. also contain bismuth sub nitrate and calcium carbonate which are antagonistfc to the acid, and there fore neutrahze the effect of the ex- cessive amount of acid in the stom- ach. and the continued use of these tablets will change the perverted con- dition of the secretions to a normal state
 If you are suffering from hyper chlor-hydria," as physicians term it. or in other words, acid dyspepsia and experience a sour taste in the mouth. with acid eructations aor heartburn, begin at once the use of Stuart's Dys- pepsia Tablets. using one or two after each meal, or as may be required. and the same quantity at retiring time. for if this trouble Is allowed to run on, it may cause serious organic changes In the stomach. There are cases on record where the lining of the stom- ach has been completely eaten away through perverted action of the secre- tions
 Stuart's Dyspep psia Tablets have been tried In all forms of indigestion and dyspepsia. with unfailing success so that no matter which form you may be suffering from. the quickest way to bring about a cure is through the use of these powerful stoma ch tablets
