Rev. D. B. MacLane and he choir of the Taftville Congregat tional church gave a delightful hour to the household at the Sheltering Arms Sunday after noon. Rev. MT.

PRESIDENT WARNE OF
 NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
Spoke Sunday Morning and Evening
 at First Spiritual Union.

Good sized audiences were in at- tendance at the morning and evening services at the First Spiritual union, when John Warne of Chicago, presi- dent of the National Spiritualists' as- sociation of the United States, was present and spoke.
 At the evening service he .congrat- ulated the local union upon having solved two problems that many are engaged in solving. One is the own ing of this fine chapel, the possession of your own house of worship, and the second the hiring of Q pastor, the trend being towards this by the majority of the associations You have demon strated the value of permanent pas- tor, which is much better than the Sunday. He also congratulated them on the condition of their work and the method of carrying it on, and be- cause of this work we shall look for further tidings from here.
 MT. Warne then took up the discus sion of the various religions. saying that each denomination has some truth and a message for some people, but there is no system which has all the elements of truth. Won Humboldt said there are three essentials in every re- hgion: code of morals. geological dream and tradition or mystical leg end, and of the three the last congresses the greater part of the attention. All the doctrines of Christianity have been borrowed from the so1der systems of the earth. Religion is not a fixed but a changing point of belief. In Amer ican spiritua1ism we believe in infinite intelligence and to the qustion, Did God make man or man make God he would answer with the single. word, Both. Men make their own concep- ton of God while He is behind us all We believe in an Oversoul who writes His greater revelations in nature all about us. No single book or generation shall be able to grasp complete con- ception of the Creator of this universe There is a soul at the center of the universe and therefore we arc souls as the children of the Oversoul. We believe in the continuity of life fol every individual who has lived on this mortal plane, and it is proved by the phenomena of Spiritualism. He re- lated instances to substantiate the claim. Spiritualism has done more te solve the origin and end of man thar any other system. We are our owr saviours and if we are not saved f is because we have not so lived as tt become the saviours of ourselves w make our happiness or unhappiness a! we obey or disobey natures psychic law. The door of reformation is nevel closed to the human soul here or here. after. We stand for a truth that sat. isfies all human need.

ONE BIG FOOL ]
But HE Do<sn't Live in Nor-
 wich Nor Read the Bulletin

A man in Connecticut gave doctor, . specialist tn-catarrh, $50 to cure him of this common yet most obnoxious
 The specialist gave him bottle of medicine and told him to use it.
 The fool took the medicine home. took one dose. put it on shelf and made no further effort to follow in structions.
 Three months later. with the medi- cine still on the shelf, he told 2 friend that the specialist was a fake: that he had paid him $50 and still had catarrh.
 HYOMET (pronounce 1t High O. me) won't cure catarrh If you don't breathe it: 1t will if you breathe it regularly.
 Furthermore, you don't need to give catarrh specialist $50 to cure you o1 catarrh, for the specialist is yet to be born who can write better prescrip- ton than HYOMEI.
 The Lee 6 Osgood Co. and drug gists everywhere guarantee HYOMEl to cure catarrh or money back. A complete outfit which consists of 3 bottle of HYOMEI, 8 hard rubber in- haler and simple instructions for use costs only $1.00. Separate bottles of HYOMEI if afterwards needed cost but 50 cents.

OTHERS ARE HELP LPINe TIE FUND
A. j. c.mpbell Here on Saturday in Behalf of the wo- mans College for New London. Subscriptions Can De Left at the Bulletin.


 The interest in mo $1oo,oeo fund being raised in New London toward the establishment of . woman,s cole l 1eEe there is spreading rapidly. Nor wtch people have already made volun- tary contributions, which fact, coupled with visit to New London made the other day by Henry TibbitS. encour- aged the committee to send A. ]. Campbell hero Saturday afternoon with a number of pledge cards and circu- lars describing the movement, which he has distributed In various places in the city.
 When seen by a Bulletin reporter MT. Campbell said: "The interest and en- thusiasm In this project has spread wider and faster than anyone realized would be possible. Originally plans were laid to cover New London only, because we assumed that interest In the movement would not extend far- ther. In this everybody has been most pleasantly disappointed. Not only has every man, woman and child in New London shown . deep and keen inter est in the movement, but outside places have shown a willingness to help that was unexpected, but that is, nevertheless, most gratifying and high ly appr eciated. Already subscription lists have been started in Mystic, Ston- ington and Westerly, and Norwich of it's own accord has already sent us 1n0kAy V0IQAlhIy QlSu&G8s Auu, Uy tA0 way, the editorial in Saturdays Bulle- tin pleased us all immensely.
 Nearly 2,ooo contributors. "The effort to raise the $10o,o0o is the best thing that ever happened to New London, and not even the pro- verbal oldest fnha'bitant can remember when the city has been so stirred to its depths. There is scarcely anything else talked about or thought about. Contributions come in in amounts that are surprising. Already we are ap- preaching 1000 individual subscriptions and the amounts range from 50 cents to $5,000. In many cases subscriptions of $1, s5 and $10 represent a greater personal sacrifice than larger pledges. The circumstances under which $6 and $10 have been given by those who could i'll afford 1t have been very inspiring. and on more than one occasion at the monday meeting the mon have sat with Jumps in their tiaroats as they listened to stories of how these pledges were given.
 .'You know, perhaps, how the work of raising this fund Is being carried on. There Is an executive committee to plan and citizens committee headed by the mayor and consisting of ten men, who are supposed to look after the larger subscriptions, and a cam pafgn committee, which h divided into eteVen teamS Ol SIX men oScn- The whole town has been card -indexed and the~cards are given out to the members of the teams, who use them as .. basis for soliciting There is a keen but good natured rivalry between all of the teams.
 At noontime all the members of the various committees meet at headquar- ters for a luncheon, after which the reports are made. There is great in- terest and enthusiasm at this time and the various announcements are received with cheera.
