A MEMORIAL TO THE LATE
HON. CALVIN l.. HARDWOOD
Adopted by the Directors of the Nor
witch Savings Society.

At the meeting of the board of di-
rectQrs of the Norwich Savings soci-
ETY. held Saturday announcement was
made of the death of Hon. Calvin L..
Harwood. and the following memorial
was adopted and ordered made a part
of the record:
BY the death of ex-Mayor Calvin l..
HARDWOOD, this board has been called
upon for the third time in a little
more than one brief month to record
the loss of one of its vice presidents.
As a trustee for twenty-six years, a
director for twenty-one years and a
vice president only since the fifth of
March Mr.. Harwood.s long continued
and faithful services have caused his
loss to be deeply felt by the board.
His mature judgment and absolute in
tegrity have made him an exceedingly
valuable director, while his genial So
cfal character. his fair mind and warm
heart have endeared him to every one
of his associates. AS a friend he was
one Of the staunchest, gentlest, kind
est, truest. There was little that he
would not do for those who held his
confidence and esteem nor did he
wait on invitation. The troubles and
own. filed his thoughts and brought
out freely his able counsel and gener-
Gus aid.
Though he had been bearing in his
own consciousness the premonition
and foreshadoWing of the fatal shock
for months, so placidly did he speak
of it that his closest friends hoped
and believed it a misleading of his
own thought
Experience has taught US that often
in life. the Master comes into the
busiest group and beckons one into
the open door. He follows and the
door is shut. Gods finger touched
him and he sleeps" That is the death
which we in our blindness regret. but
1t is only ''the gray eve between two
shining days" the day of the past and
the immortal day of the future.
In profound sorrow we find a CLEAN
of consolation in the characteristic
fact that Mr.. HARDWOOD fell at his post
in the seeming fullness of his powers.
doing all that he could for the city
that had honored him with its highest
gift. and for his business associates
and friends, and all Immediately de-
pendent upon him.
Dep1oring his untimely loss. this
Board tenders to his sorrowing family
sincerest sympathy.
Attest:
COSTELLO LIPPITT,
Secretary.
It was further voted that the bank
be closed at one o'clock on Monday
afternoon, and the Board attend the
funeral.

NO HEALTHY SKIN LEFT

MY son, a boy Of five, broke out
with an itching rash. Three doctors
prescribed for him. but he kept getting
worse until we could not dress him any
more. A medical colleges treatment did
no good. He was SO bad that it was
impossible to touch him with the bare
hand. There was not one square inch
OF skin on his whole body that was not
affected. He was one mass of sores.
The bandages used to stick to his skin
and in removing them it used to take
the skin of with them, and the screams
from the poor child were heartbreaking.
Il began to think that he would never
get well, but after the second appfca-
ton of Cfiticura Ointment / began to
see signs OF improvement. and with the
third and fourth applications the sores
commenced to dry up. His skin peeled
of twenty times, but it finally yielded
to the treatment. Now / can say that
he is entirely cured, and a stronger and
healthier boy you never saw than he
is to-day. twelve years or more since
the cure was effected. Robert Wattan,
