HOSE COMPANY FUND GROWING RAPIDLY
Expenses of Fixing up and Furnishing Fire House Will be Easily Met
 Practice Run Tonight.

Practice Run Tonight.
 A meeting of the Hose company is call ed for this evening, for business and practice. It is proposed to have the first drill and practice. in getting to hydrant and making coupling.
 Chairs have been procured for the fire house. for the business sessions, and the members will soon meet to be measured for their uniforms, which it is desired they shall procure before July 4, in order that the fremen may make a good ap- pearance on the occasion of their first public appearance, in the parade.
 The subscription paper for the fund for completing the improvements at the fire house and supplying material for making the equipment available efficient, is being generously signed, and it is con- tidently expected that the amount real ized will warrant the company in nego- tiating with the chemical engine manu- lecturers for the shipment of an engine here, for experimental demonstration, with reasonable assurance that it may be purchased. If this plan goes through, the chemical engine will form another attractive feature Ill the Fourth of July parade.
 A dance is to be given in town hall or the evening of July 3-the first social function in the history of Canaan Hose Company No. 1, at which the people of town will have an opportunity of show ing their good will toward the new or ganization, and enjoying themselves al the same time.

pears from below. Looking at the dial
Of Big Ben from tue northern footway
OF Great George street or from the
Thames emhankment, IL appears as IL
its diameter might be equal 10 the
space that a man OF medium size could
cover with outstretcbed arms. as a
matter OF fact, however, the diameter
Of the dial is twenty-three feet. From
the ground the minute marks on the
dial look like ordinary minute marks
and as II they were close together
Really they are foot apart The nu-
merals are two feet long. The minute
hand, with its counter balance-the
heavy piece of metal that projects be-
yond the center Of the dial-is fifteen
feet in length. This hand is so massive
that during a snowstorm the clock IS

Shorthand Pioneer.
That the ancients were thoroughly
conversant with shorthand is an un.
disputed fact. 1t subsequently became
a lost art until revived or rediscovered
toward the end of the sixteenth cen
fury. At this time there lived William
Lawrence, who died in 1921 and was
buried in the cloister of Westminster
abbey. There the visitor may read his
epitaph. which includes the following
lines:
Shorthand he wrote: his flower in prime
did fade
And hasty death short hand OF him hath
made.
Answering the Dean.
The man whom Thackeray calls "the
greatest wit of all time"-Dean Swift
of st. Patrick's cathedral, Dublin-was
as ready to take as to make a retort.
"Why don't you don your hat to
me?" he asked small boy who was
coaxing along an obstreperous goat
II WILL" said the lad, eff your honor
will hold the goats hornsr' an answer
that delighted the dean.
When a Man Dies.
1t has been discovered that II hui
man being dies after an ordinary ILL
ness and not a violent death he does
not die all over and all at once. He
may have a diseased liver, heart or
lung. and this may be the cause of his
death, but it has been found that IL
the diseased organ could have been
replaced by a healthy one life might
have been maintained indefinitely.
This is no imagination or speculation.
1t has been confirmed by the most
careful experiments by the ablest
medical scientists in the country

c. A. 6545 confirmed by r. p 5694 conveyed by llaaio to
John Hamauka by deed Of May 13, 1878, recorded in book

of July 49, 1888 recorded in book 81 pp 272274 1t
shown by probate records that Loo Ngawk died in China July
1S 1896 that plaintiff, administrator of his estate filed an
inventory including the land in question: that Loo Ngawk left
one son. Loo Wing Chew who died China December 1898
leaving and daughter minors for whom the plaintiff Is
guardian. The plaintiffs evidence showed that the land was
included in the award and patent and that the defendant Wong
Sal in possession August H. 1908 when the action was
brought; that the defendant kapano guardian of the MINOR
children of the defendants had leased the land to the de-
fcndan Wong Sal. The plaintiff by competent and undis-
pued evidence showed clear title in his wards. The defense
relied solely upon adverse possession, beginning with Kae
who died in 1898 witness for the defendant thinking she
died in February witness for the plaintiff saying If my
memory tells right she died about October the latter part OF
October of that year. Before her death Kae conveyed the land

The Cadillac owner sees nothing
I'm any other car which he enVieS

made In reply, tO-wit: That the Ca
dillac Company had always prac-
ticed the principle that, in building
motor ears, II costs less to do work
that Is clean, close and accurate
than 1t does to do work that Is poor
and sIOyenly. But In order to do
work that Is close and accurate,
you must have the right equipment
and the right organization.
When your Cadillac owner tells you
that he Is perfectly cOntent-that
he can't see anything In any other
car, at any price, which he does not
enjoy in his car at $17OO-he bears
witness to the fact that the Cadillac
policy Of close, fine, conscientious
workmanship Is the correct policy
from every standpoint.
The Cadillac was awarded the Dewar
Trophy precisely because of the pur-
suit Of this principle.
The Cadillac owner Is content with
his car because II exemplines the
same qualities TINT won the Dewar
Trophy.
Every Cadillac ever built Is Dewar
Trophy Cadillac.
In other words, It Is the finest speci-
men of Standardization, inter-
changeabllity and perfect alignment
In existence.
When you have said these things, you
have said that II Is the best motor
car alue-because upon the quail
tiles which we have specified de-
pends, and depends entirely and
exclusively the kind and the extent
of the service you get out of your
car.
For your own enlightment-test the
