hand with which to smother the
flames, Mr.. Clemo had to go to the

TO MY LITTLE GRANDSON

Sweet innocence of childish mi.th,
How lovely thou dost seem,
oh, thou dost to my soul recall
A truly happy theme.
When with my children dear, I played
And watched them toddling 60
To greet their father with smile,
In the days of long ago.
Scenes of the past with sorrows
fraught,
Deep anxious thoughts and cares
Which falls unto the lot OF man,
Amid life's many snares.
Yet oh, there is a pleasure sweet
Which doth our souls oerfiow
With gratitude to think of scenes
OF the happy long ago.
And in our childrens children dear
We taste those joys we love,
Our thoughts are led from earthly
things,
To heavenly joys above,
And In this life there is a hope
Which makes our souls to glow
With thankfulness to think OF times,
OF the happy long ago.
And till life's weary struggles Ger,
May strength to us be given,
To guide our footsteps eSS on,
To happiness and heaven.
Oh, joyous scenes Of childhood days,
How pleasant It's to know,
And feel even now sweet foretaste
OF the happy long ago.

Later it was found out that the chim- ,ney soot had been burning through the afternoon The recent fire loss at Bean Hill and the nearness of three houses caused the people to send for the fantic lire company and for help from the city. One chemical company, Chief Stanton and an auto of firemen were there in a short time. A large crowd gathered; many auto and mo- tofcyclists were in evidence The roof was chopped in to see if the fire was smouldering and the fire was de- clared out in 20 minutes.

Attorney Daniel M. Cronin qualified Tuesday as temporary receiver of the Thames River Specfalties Co, of Mont vile in the superior court in Norwich Tuesday morning Judge Milton A ShumWay signed the necessary paper approving of the appointment of At torney CroninS as temporary received Attorney Cronin filed bonds of sfeo. 900 with the court and later went to Mont vile and took charge of the plant and it's affairs.
 The action of the court followed steps taken last Friday when Judge Shumway announced that he would appoint Attorney cronin as receiver and requesting him to appear to quail fy.
 Attorney Cronin qualified after . hearing on the application of Hull, McGuire & Hull, representing the mi nority of stockholders for a correctly CT of the company to work in conjunc- tion with Attorney Cronin. Major Hull stated ti the court that a core to all the parties interested.
 Attorney Thomas M. Shields. repre- senting some of the creditors. opposed the application of cO-receiver, stat ing that it was unnecessary until it had been shown that the receiver had done something wrong.
 Attorney John c. Geary representing other creditors. made a spirited argu- ment against the application. He said that the concern had been misman- aged. that it owed over $200,000 and that its stock, which was valued at s100 a shore. was down to s25. Superintendent Van Rensellaer under his management the concern had run down. He said that w J. AL word was well qualified to conduct the business and fntimated that the af- fairs of the concern will have been strengthened out and the plant would be all right again in 30 days. He aSerred that the appointment ofsa CO., receiver would only tend to cause clashing and would drag the concern down still further. and would end by going into bankruptcy; He said that Superintendent Can Rensellaer had $50, eco worth of stock for which he intimated the latter had not paid any thing.
 Major Hull replied to Attorney Geary at some length. He stated that 600, Attorney Shields $S,000 and Attor- ney Lucius Brown. who also opposed the appointment of co-receiver two suits. He urged that the appointment of a co-receiver was necessary to safeguard the interests of everybody had been well managed and the criti- cism which had been heaped upon 1t was unjust. He intimated that his son, Attorney c. Hadlai Hull,1 might be made the co-receiver.
 At the conclusion of his statement, Judge Shumway said that he would take the matter of appointment of a co-receiver under advisement. He then inquired of Attorney Cronin. who was present, if he had secured the bonds. and later the bonds were fur nished and Attorney Gronin qualified.

OLD AZ TWENTY Return of Youth with Proper Food.

Many persons who eat plenty never seem to be properly nourished,
 That's because the food is not di- gested and absorbed. Much that is eaten Is never taken up by the system as real food. and so the tissues simply starve and the individual may, as in a recent case, look and feel old in what should be the bloom of life, youth. r
 At twenty I was prematurely old. The health and vieor and brightness of youth had been, as it seemed, stolen from me. I went to work in the morn ing with slow steps and dull head.
 My work through the day was un- satisfactory for my breakfast lay in my stomach like 6 hard lump. I was peevish and the gas in my stomach was very annoying. After supper I usually went to bed to toss half the night from sheer nervousness.
 rThis was all from. Indigestion caused by wrong eating.
 Finally I tried Grape-Nuts and cannot describe the full benefits re- ceived from the food. It gave me back my health. It has completely restored good digestion and my ail- ments have disappeared. I steadily improved and am now strong and in perfect health"
