Norwich and Norwich Men was the subject for addresses on Sunday even ing at the Central Baptist church by H. A. Tirrell, principal of the Acad- emy, and by Rev. F. C. Wright. pastor of the church The service was espe- cially for men and about 150 of them occupied seats reserved for them in the center of the church.
 Introducing Principal Tirrell, Rev. MT. Wright said that it was coming to be better recognized that life and re- ligion are one and that a religion on Sunday is of small value unless it op- crates also on Monday, Tuesday, We'd nesday and the rest of the week. It was to fulfill this conception of life and faith that this meeting was held We have a good city and out of q gathering like this ought to come things for a better city.
 Principal Tirreil declared in his opening words that he was not at tempting to lay down the law for any one but was only to give his individual opinion, which could be taken for what it was worth.
 Support Everything for Good of Nor
 wich.
 The citizen should live a clean life. for he is an injury to the coming gen eration if his is not an upright life. But he may be an upright citizen, yet of only a negative influence. His in fuence ought to be positive and every thing that is good for Norwich should have his support There seems to be some way in which every man can serve his city and each one must de- eide what that will be. In public af- fairs each citizen is a stockholder with an interest in the welfare of the cor poFation. There seems to be not much question but that every citizen fails to feel this unless he is elected to office.
 Defects in Present Government.
 Stating that 1t was his purpose to speak chiefly of the citizens public duties, Principal Tirrell said that as the most valuable part of the city is its people, the highest view is to con- slider what a man can do for the peo- pie. What are the main defects that the voter needs to cure? There are two defects in our present government resting on the people Under the pres ent system it is impossible for a man to vote intelligently because he can not know all the men who appear on the ticket. The first method of inn proyement would be to vote for fewer men. give them more power and center the responsibility. A second defect lies in our method of nomination for cleo tion. Up to this. time the slate pre- pared by local party managers has been the only system used, but Prin- cipal Tirrell said he believed it was not the best system Its defects are that it introduces national issues where they do not belong. it places the responsibility for the nominations and elections wrongly. and it tends to keep quarrels and rivalry alive through the bringing in of national politics

Requirements for Appetite.

Cleanliness and good appetite are twins; so are cheerfulness and good digestion. Avoid bickerings and heat ed discussions at the table. Eat slow ly taking time to chew thoroughly your food. You will be coaxed into an appetite through so little thing as the immaculate cleanliness of the lin en and the dishes, the garnishing of the meat with parsley, watercress or latticed potatoes. A relish-olives, onions, radishes. celery-often helps a stalled appetite into another course. And the serving hot-not lukewarm- of the vegetables and meats that come from the oven is a wonderful aid to digestion
