Hardly a man in Norwich was better known generally than Charles E.

He had shown no preliminary symptoms of illness and was around the hotel where he was us- ually to be found in the evening in connection with his business, but shortly after he had gone to his home and retired he was taken with an at tack of acute indigestion and this was followed by shock from which he expired about 11.45 o'clock, very soon after he was stricken. Dr. J. J. Don ohue was called and reached there before the end, but medical help was of no avail.

How to Use Red Cross Seals.

The post office department has ap- proved of the Red Cross Christmas seal design being used this year, and the seals may, therefore, in accord ance with order No. 5020 of the post office department "be affixed to the re- verse side of domestic mail matter" Red Cross seals must be placed only on the back of letters and not on the address side of any packages that are going through the mail. They may be placed anywhere on matter going by express. Care should be exercised in sending merchandise through the mails not to place seals over the string with which the package is tied, since this seals the package against inspection and subjects it to first class postage rates. Red Cross seals may be used on reverse side of mail mat ter sent to Austria, Germany, Great Britain, and most of the British col onfes, except India and Australia Guatemala, Uruguay and Portugal re- fuse to admit mail bearing non- post age stamps.

CATCH COLD INDOORS.
Badly Ventilated Rooms Arc a Source
 of Discomfort.

Dr. Joseph H. Townsend, secretary of the state board of health, in speak ing of colds. says that they are trans ferred from one persons to another by an infection, and that the best place to take cold is not out of doors, but in close, i'll ventilated rooms, cafes. theaters and churcehs. The fact that colds are much more prevalent in win ter is chiefly due to the fact that at that season of the year we take less exercise out of doors and live in houses with doors and windows clos ed. To avoid taking a cold, Dr. Town end says we should keep the body in such excellent condition that it will resist the invasion of germs and we should avoid infection as far as pos sible.
