 Dr. William Belmont, of Cleve- land, Ohio, says "Your Castoria stands first in its class. In my thirty years of practice can say I never have found anything that so filled the place."
 Dr. R. J. Hamlen, of Detroit, Mich, says prescribe your Gas toria extensively as I have never found anything to equal it for chil- dren's troubles. am aware that there are limitations in the field, hut I always see that my patients get FIetcher's."
 Dr. Charming II. Cook, of Saint Louis, Mo, says: "I have used your Castoria for several years past in my own family and have always found it thoroughly efficient and never objected to by children, which is a great consideration in view of the fact that most medi- cines of this character are obnox- ious and therefore difficult of ad- ministration. As a laxative I consider it the peer of anything shat ever prescribed"

II can't tell in words how happy the word 'Cuticura' sounds to me, for it cured my baby of itching, torturlng eczema. It first came when she was between three and four weeks old, appearing on her head l used everything imaginable and had one doctors bill after another but nothing cured it; Then the eczema broke out so badly behind her ear that really thought her ear would come off For months l doctored it but to no avail Then it began at her nose and her eyes were nothing but sores. had to keep her in dark. room for two weeks. The doctor did no good, so stopped him coming. For about two weeks had used Cuticura Soap for her every day. then I got a box of Cuticura Ointment and began to use that. In a week there was marked improvement. In all 1 used two cakes of Cuticura Soap and one box Of Cuticura Ointment and my baby was cured of the sores.

WoMAN's RELIEF CORPS.

To the noble women of the w. R. C.. can be given much of the praise for the past and present. help they have been and are to the veterans of the civil war, but special honor can be ac- corded Mrs. Laura $. Richardson, who originated the widespread custom of decorating soldiers graves in national cemeteries with flags. Her death oc- cured recently in Canaan, Conn, al the age of S5 years. It was in knox vile. in 1874, that Mrs Richardson originated the present system of dec orating the graves of the soldier dead in national cemeteries. She was chair man of a committee of four women to procure flowers for decorating 3.V53 graves in the national cemetery there.
 While walking along the streets she saw great piles of miniature HagS Tn a store window. Like a flash the idea came to her that they would be fit em- belms with which to deck the graves of the nations fallen heroes. The flags were provided with sticks from her mill. and for the first time in the na- tion's history the red. white and blue was used on May 30. 1874. in the deco ration of soldiers graves. On that day former President Andrew Johnson was present and made a. few remarks. Later. the custom became national to place sfnalI flag on each vetera nsss grave in any. ceneteryy as an appropri-. ate and almost necessary part ot the proper observance of the day set apart for the honoring of the heroes of the. war.
 Mrs. Riehsttfsor's maiden name was Mary Smith Catlin. She was sbornffn a house in New Marlboro. Conn, which has been in the Catlin family for more than one hundred years. Her father was Joseph F. CatliD, a native of New Marlboro. Her maternal grandfather, Captain Ebenezer Smith, was a captain in the army of George Washington. hence she was entitled to the honor of being a Real Daughter of the Revo- lution. She passed her summers in New Marlboro and her winters in Canaan n

Besides the usual routine business there was a further report from the ball committee which showed there was now $165 net pro ceeds from this very successful affair, and there were still some tickets to he heard from.

Members of the New Britain Busi- ness Mems association have recently received through the mail cards con- taining the rule against advertising In programmes and other publications which have less than twelve issues eacn year. The suppcsition was that the officers of the association were aiming at certain violators of the rule.
 President Frank H. Johnson said

this week that it was the usual plan to send out the cards about every three years because the membership of the association is constantly changing. The new members would have no knowledge of the rule unless they were mailed copies. The officers have no particular business men in mind in sending out the cards Usually the rule is violated more through careless ness than deliberate intention.
