Makes Backache
Quickly Disappear
A Few Doses Relieves All Such
Miseries. Bladder Weakness,
Kidney Trouble and Rheu-
matism Promptly Vanish

1t Is no longer necessary for any
one to suffer with backaching, kid
ney trouble, have disagreeable blad
der and urinary disorders to contend
with, or be tortured with rheuma-
tism, stiff joints, and its heart
wrenching pains, for the new discov-
cry, Croxone, Quickly and surely re-
iieves all such troubles.
Croxone is the most wonderful
remedy yet devised for rdding the
system of uric acid and driving out
r all the poisonous impurities which
cause such troubles. 1t is entirely
different from all other remedies. 1t
is not like anything else ever used
for the purpose. IT acts on the prin-
ciple of cleaning out the poisons and
removing the cause.
1t soaks right in through the walls,
membranes and Innings, like water in
a sponge, neutrallZes, diSSolves, and
makes the kidneys sift out and filter
away, all the uric acid and poisons
from the blood, and leaves the kid
neys and urinary organs clean,
strong, healthy and well.
1t matters not how long you have
suffered, how old you are, or what
you have used, the very principle of
Croxone is such. that it is practically
impossible to take 1t into the human
system without results. There is
nothing else on earth like 1t. 1t
starts to work the minute you take it
and relieves you the first time you
use il.
If you suffer with pains in your
back and side, or have any signs of
kidney, bladder troubles or rheuma-
tism, such as puffy swellings under
the eyes OF In the feet and ankles, If
pou are nervous, tired and run down.
or bothered with urinary disorders,
Eroxone will quickly relieve you of
your misery. You can secure an orig
lnal package of Croxone at trifiing
cost from any first-class druggist.
All druggists are authorized to per-
sonally return the purchase price If it
fails in a single observation-disclosures

were exclusively Of the poorer class.
Mrs. Siegel declares that while her

At meetings of their directors on Saturday two of the Norwich banks, each the largest in the city in their class, and representing many millions in their banking capital and in the in- terests of their directors as individu- als or in fiduciary capacities, passed resolutions addressed to the senators and congressman and urging them to consider the peril to the industrial life of the commonwealth of Connecti- cut which is already apparent through the proposed government action re- garding the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company
 The Thames National bank and the Norwich Savings society were the two banks which took this action and urged the legislators to present these facts before the proper authorities at Wash ington.
 Thames Bank Resolutions.
 The following was the minute unani- mously adopted by the Thames Ma tiona1 bank directors:
 The strained situation at present obtaining between the government and the New York, New Haven and Hart ford railroad system is seriously af- fecting the welfare and prosperity of the entire people of Connecticut.
 ''The business community is actual ly, as well as senitmentally, disturbed, with q consequent curtailment of in dustry, and the result, especially for the wage earner. is becoming serious.
 We heartily endorse the action re- gently taken by the directors of the First (Bridgeport) National bank, Bridgeport, Conn.
 Knowing that our senators and rep resentatives must have the welfare of thls commonWe at heart, and must realize the perils of the situation we urge them 10 present the subject to the proper authorities at Washington, with

MAKE THE STATE
 INTO FIRE DISTRICTS
Bill Before Next LegisIature-Mutual
 Aid Is the idea.

The matter of dividing the state into fire districts has been the subject of much discussion at the different meetings of the State Fire Chiefs as soCiation in the past and it is expected that a bill authorizing the division of the state into fire districts will be brought before the legislature this year for action, so that before long the as sociation expects to have the state remapped for this purpose. The object is to have assistance at hand when needed and each district will central headquarters situated in a large town and have within call the fire fighting strength of other communities situated in the district. who will render all the assistance needed and in return will receive needed assistance from the fire fighting forces of the central body. It will be @ reciprocal measure and will prove an effective means of pre- venting large and disastrous fires. as well as checking the spread of small cOnagrations.
 Another matter connected with this proposition has been suggested and that is in giving power to the lire chiefs of the different communities to send their apparatus and men out or town In time of need without waiting for ocial action on the part or the municipal authorities This proposi- ton. which will doubtless soon be au thorized by legislative action, will practically place the fire department on a footing similar to that which con trols the military. Among the central towns already named unofhctally for state districts are Hartford. New Ha- ven, Bridgeport, Waterbury, Danbury and Norwich
 Another important matter which will probably be embodied in the measure is that only these towns which have fire departments equipped with up-t6- date engines will be included in the list of those places to which 1t will be obligatory to render assistance.

THIRD IN SERIES
 OF LENTEN SERMONS.
Rev. T. J. McNichoIas Breaches at St. Patrick's Church Upon Practical Re- IQion.


 For evening vespers on Sunday at 7.30 St. Patrick's church had con gregation that took nearly every seat in the body of the souse. The ser mon was by Rev. T. J. McNicholas, O. P of New York, and was the third he has preached here with great ac- ceptance during this Lepten season, ms vigorous exhortations to righteous life, couched in graceful but forcetul language and pointed with apt illus trations, making his sermons such as make a deep impression upon those who hear him.
 Sunday night he said he should speak upon An Application Of Values, placing on one side what might De called the theory of religion and upon the other side our practice of H. Speaking along patriotic lines first, he said that we can realize the value or our country when we see the danger for her of so many imported Ideas which If carried into effect mean an archy and destruction. When we real ize that these foreigners are being or ganized not to support but to over throw it makes us pause to consider the value of the country we love- 10 realize what our country means we must visualize all those things which we possess and then we have an eSu- mate of the value of the noble fabrAc which has been erected at such cost. Then our blood is riled and we are Te1QS 10 IISihG IdNS IO IC9bAi iSt CiAC -tA- trance of those who do not value the government we have. This Is noble and patriotic.
 But there is a higher value, that of our religion, and we ask what that IS wonth. To appreciate it, we must stand on Calvary and see that dying figure and hear him say Father, for give them, for they know not what they do' And hear. too. the words at the end spreading among the crowd: This indeed is the Son of God Oar holy religion is valued at the lie or God and to this are added all the lives of those who came after.
 This, as we may say. is the theory of religion, and we bow in admiration before the wonderful structure.
 Now what is our practice, and what the practical part of it? Religion is not something theoretical but emi- nently practical If we are not good churchmen. we do great damage to re- 1 ligiOn in general by our lives. So inn l be 9 true practicer of what he believes l What then in your practical religioT 1 life is wanting or missing? The people whom you admire in your parish fol noble, edifying lives do not so live ! without effort People are not horT ] good but reach there only by sustained 1 effort. By repeated acts we may grow ! in the habit of virtue and here we set how important it is that you sustain i all the devOtions that will stimulate | religion in your life They will keeI | alive the fire of religion in your sou i and your heart and your life and leaC i to that spiritual condition which now so edihes you in the lives of others.
