The Late David TowsIee

Died at his home at Pownal Center,
VT, July 9rd, 1914, David Towslee in
the 10th year OF his age In the
death of this good man, not only his
immediate family, his relatives. and
neighbors, but a large circle OF
friends have sustained an irrepairable
loss. He was born in Pownal, VT, in
1889. and lived on the old homestead
until 1910. When on account of fail
ing health he moved to the little vii
lage of Pownal Center. He was
married Oct. 20, 1868, to Mrs. Ellen
Mayhem Otis. He was an active
member OF the A. c. church and
strictly honest man. The noblest
work of God. He had all the rare quail
tiles that belong to such man.
Everyone with whom he came In
contact felt this and was helped by
his life. His example, and memory
remain to help, and the hope OF fu-
ture life and reunion comforts those
who mourn. Among them, are his
widow and two daughters, Mrs. Al
media u. blanchard OF Worcester,
Mass, and Mrs. l.. Victoria Brown OF
North Adams, Mass, also a step-son,
George w. Otis of North Adams,
Mass. These deeply mourn his loss
and were IL not for the Christians
hope OF soon seeing Jesus and being
made like him, their sorrow could not
be assuaged. but the comfort of his
words, that he was ready is a con-
soling thought and a great stimu-
lus TO meet him beyond. BY his re-
quest the funeral sermon was preach
ed BY the Rev. A. c. Johnson Of
Westeeld. Mass, assisted by Rev. II.
A. Mitchell OF North Adams and he
sweetly sleeps in the old Towslee
yard. waiting the summons to come
forth. The singing was rendered by
Mrs. Arthur Parker and Miss O.
Gardner OF Pownal, VT. The last
hymn being one OF his choice.
I'VE shall sleep but not forever
There viii be a glorious dawn,
We shall meet to part. no. never

SERIOUS CATARRH YIELDS TO HYOMEI

De wise in time and use Hyomei at he first symptom Of catarrh, such as frequent colds. spasmodic coughing, sTatery eyes, husky voice, or constant saiffling and raising of mucus
 Do not let the disease become deep seated and gradually extend along the delicate mucous membrane going from the nose to the throat and finally into lie lungs-then you are in danger of @. serious if not fatal illness.
 There is no other treatment for ca tarrh ills like the Hyomet method. none just as good or more simple and pleasant to use. It is in no wise a cure-all, but certainly Is mos. effective and almost instant relief for head culds croup or catarrh. Hyomei contains no dangerous or outlawed drugs, and can be safely used in the treatment of small children.
 The Hyomei method is not round about process of stomach drugging that cnly uPsets the digestion-its natures way-you breathe it. Hyomei is a combination Of antiseptic and gerni- cidal oils. It mixes with the air you breathe, almost instantly reaches all the hooks and crevices of the sore and infamed mucous membrane lining the nose anu throat. and immediately be- gins it's sure and safe healing.
 The Lee & Osgood Co. and druggists everywhere sell Hyomei. The com plete outf1t-s100 size-contains in haler and bottle of liquid. Extra bot ties of liquid, if later needed, 50 cents.

Act No. 3 is Caprice Lewis, a petite little lady who does many daring feats on the trapeZe and Spanish Webb; you win like her right from the start. McNally and Stewart are a mixed team doing a neat comedy singing, talking and dancing speciality that is in a class by itself. Last, but not least. is Zita- the charming gypsy violinist, who can play a violin in a manner that gets her audience to lik- Ing her whenever they hear her sweet music. In the photoplays Monday the feature is a two reel Broncho drama called Wolves of the Underworld, a powerful picture enacted by clever artists. The Mutual Weekly will also he shown as well as a Keystone con- edy called Mack At It Again, scream ing funny comedy with Mack Sennitt and Mabel Normand featured. Owing to the extreme length of the shows there will be only one complete vaude- vile show given in the evening Pic lures will be shown from : to SIS, NanTrvtffa from $T5 . sff and nip- tures from 9-3g to 1G30 This gives everyone time 10 get in and see a complete show.
