The superintendent of a Sunday

Here is the mother. Here is the

LOVE YOUR WORK.

Do not look on your work as a
dull duty. Ii you choose you can
make it interesting. Throw your
heart into it, master its meaning,
trace out the causes and previous his
tory consider it in all its bearings,
think how many even the hunblest
labor may benefit, ana there is scarce
ly one of our duties which we may
not look TO with enthusiasm. You
will get to love your work, and if you
do it with delight you will do it with
ease. Even if at first you find this i'm
possible, if for a time it seems mere
drudgery. this may be just what you
require; it may be good like mountain
air to brace up your character.-Lord

HYOMEI SOOIHES, PURFIES, HEALS
 CATARRH ILLS

When you have frequent attacks Of sneezing or head colds, tickling in the throat, dull headaches crusts in the nose, raising of mucus or spasfnod1e coughing, and seem lacking in vitality, you are affected with catarrh-a dis ease that cannot be neglected since It often leads to serious if not fatal all- ment. The ravages of catarrh will in time wreck the health of even the strongest person. Besides catarrh Is so unpleasantAit makes your life mis- erable and annoys your friends.
 At the first catarrhal symptom surely use Hyomei It's the right to the point remedy-you breathe it-no nauseatlng drugs to upset your stomach.
 Hyomei is q combination of anti septic oils that you breathe into the nose, throat and lungs in the natural way. Just put a few drops into the inhaler and breathe it in. The germi- cidal fumes mix with the air and at once penetrate to all hooks and creVices of the mucous membrane. It destroys the dangerous germs that may be turk ing in the delicate tissues, and imme- diately soothes and heals the raw and infiammed membrane.
 The Lee & Osgood Go. sells Hyomei with an agreement to refund the pur- chase price to anyone who is not bene- fited. You surely can afford to try it on an offer like this. All druggists have it. Get the complete outfit, S1.00 size.

FIRE DEPARTMENT DEMONSTRATION
Chief Stanton Plans Big for Tuesday Morning of Merchants Week-In Union Square-Old Torrent En- zine to Perform By Side of Modern Apparatus.

For the Tuesday morning of Mer- chants Week, Chief Hiward l.. Stan ton has worked out the plans for the fire department demonstration along lines that will make this one of the most complete exhibitions of the local fire equipment that the city has ever enjoyed.
 It is a certainty that the firemen will play to a crowded house.
 One important point about the dem onstration is that it is to be given at the place where most people can sec it with comfort, which is in Union square. Here the best places to see what Is going on will be in front of the Otis library and the Central Bap- tist church where thousands of peo- pie can find place to stand.
 Of course with the fire apparatus rushing in when the alarms are given, people will need to keep on the side walks. but the spaces named near the Otis library and the Central Baptist church will be safety points for the crowds into which the apparatus will not intrude. Autos and teams will be kept out of the Union square terri tory at the time of the demonstration and Broadway will be closed to travel from Willow street to Union square, either by foot or teams, as all streams of water will be directed up Broad way, from 10 to dozen streams.
 Through arrangements made by Erie Commissioner T. H. Beckley Mayor T. c. Murphy and the police com missioners, the police department will assist in keeping the crowds in safe places.
 Demonstration Programme.
 What Chief Ctanton has arranged for the demonstration, which is to begin at 1o.45 a. m-, is indicated as follows:
 Old Torrent Engine.
 No. 1 Demonstration of throwing water with old Torrent engine. the first fire engine owned in Norwich, built by John Bliss at Norwich Town in 1769, and is the sixth oldest Ameri- can made engine in the United States.

The subscription list showing the money subscribed in pounds and shil lings to build this old engine will be on exhibition in the window of John & George H.

AUTHORSHIP CONFUSED.
Massachusetts Poet Given Credit for
 Lyric by Norwich Woman.

Under the head of Wrongly Ascribed Authorships, The Dial, of Chicago says:
 A letter in The Dial calls attention to case of wrongly ascribed author ship by which the Massachusetts Mar garet Fuller, as she is remembered, although she became MarchioneSs d'Ossoli, is quoted as the author of a poem called Dryad Song, written by Margaret Witter Fuller of Norwich, Conn.,, who belongs to the latter half century. Several authologies and compendiumS of American literature have fallen into the discrepancy and the poem has been cited as expressing the transcendentalism with which the elder Margaret Fuller is associated. In Stedman's anthology, however, the authorship is correctly stated
 Such mistakes are always difficult to set right, once they get started on their way.
 In the case of the Fuller poem, the similarity of names partly accounts for the transference of credit For credit really attaches to the Dryad Song The writer has reason to be glad of it and the other Margaret, with all her intellectual gifts and fine accomplishment did not have it in her to write a lyric of such melody and fire.
 Miss Fuller is the daughter of Mrs. James P. Fuller of Norwich Town and for a number of years before the death of Edmund Clarence Stedman was his secretary and assistant in some of his most important literary work
