A UNIQUE RECORD
Very Few Like It In Our Broad Re-
 public.

Grateful testimony for Doan's Kid ney Pills, published everywhere is of itself convincing evidence of merit. Confirmed testimony forms still stronger evidence. Years ago, a citizen of this locality gratefully acknowledged the benefit derived from Doan's Kidney Pills. The statement is now confirmed-the proof more convincing. Gases of this kind are plentiful in the work of Doan's Kid ney Pills the record is unique.
 G. B. Storey. "A Spring St., Willi- mantic, Conn.,, says: 1T was so bad as the result of kidney complaint that I was unable to work. A dull pain across my kidneys annoyed me constantly and couldn't stoop or istraighten without sharp twinges darting through me. The kidney secretions were also unnatural and caused me annoyance. Doan's Kidney Pills rid me of the trouble. I willing ly confirm all that was said in their praise by one of my family some years ago."
 Price 5Oc, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for kidney remedy get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that MT. Storey had. Foster Milburn Co. i. Props, Buffalo, N. Y.

HAMPDEN.

Sumner Smith, S9, the oldest man
 in town, and for years a prominent
 and active citizen died at his home Sunday morning about o'clock.
 His strength had been gradually fail. ing for several years. For over three years he had held the gold headed
 cane, which was prev iously held by
 the late Alanson Chaffee, as the oldest [ man in town. Mr. Smith was born
 in Wilmington, August 21, 1925, be- ! ing a son of Charles and Hannah Thresher Smith, and one of a family last survivor. He was educated in the public schools of his native town and moved to South Wilbraham, (now Hampden), March 16, 1864. He
 then went to work for Bradford &
 Scripture as foreman of the finishing department in the first woolen mill of the town. afterward known as the Lacowsic mill. Later he was em- ployed for while in the Scantic mill.
 MT. Smith was employed in the mills 31 years, during 25 of which
 he held the position of superintendent
 in the Lacowsic mill. In 1877 he
 bought the store of W. P. Fuller and continued in business 27 years. He retired from business about II years ago, on account of failing eyesight.
 MT. Smith was member of the board of selectmen of Wilbraham three years. After the town was divided
 he was elected town clerk and treas
 urer of Hampden and held the position
 1 years. Since then he has served several times on the board of select
 men, and was elected to the legisla-
 ture in 1892. He was justice of
 the peace 80 years, and has been a
 member of the Baptist church about 60 years. MT. Smith was married twice. His frss wife was Frances A. E. Stebbins of Monson, who died March 22, 1861. There were two children by the first marriage, who died young. On January 15, 1867, MT. Smith married Ellen A. Arnold of Somers. By this marriage he had two children who survive him. They are William S. Smith of Cambridge
 and Mrs. James V. W. Boyd of | Springfield. MT. Smith also leaves niece, Mrs. Hattie Walcott, of Stafford Springs. The funeral was
 held at the home Tuesday at ? p. m.
 Rev. Dr. Joseph Sullivan officiated.
 Burial was in the old cemetery in Hampden.

The many, old and young, afflicted
 with severe colds are recovering. Miss Stella Hyde, who has been
 visiting at Mrs. William Eldredge's,
 has returned to her home. Rev. MT. Darrow and Miss Preston , are storing a crop of excellent ice from w. Parasek' s pond. We hear that Mrs. Mary McFarlane is so much improved in health as to be
 able to write to friends here. Miss Ricketts leaves to-day for a few weeks in New Jersey, and at the
 home of her sister in Newport News, Va.
 Mrs Earl Smith and her niece, irene Korner, came to Charles Korner:s s from Attleboro, Mass. on Sunday. Mrs. Smith will return after short visit.
 Messrs. Amidon and Ruby caught a large coon just out of winter quarters last Friday night, the trained dogs being as keen on the trail as in the season.
 The moderate weather of Sunday morning brought out 79 to Bible school where Easter music was re- hearsed with Miss Cunning as in- structor for the half hour proceeding the regular session.
 Pastor Darrow's excellent sermon was from Matt. 7: 7.8, and suggested that usefulness, not happiness should be the aim of life and that usefulness made for happiness. The sermon was appropriate at this time when the raising of money for the increased apportionments absorbs the attention of all interested, in furthering the Lords work in the world.
 At the grange meeting Friday even- ing of this week H. w. Treat, deputy of the Housatonic Valley Pomona will be present to inspect the grange.

 William Armstrong prevented what might have been serious conflagration in the tenement of Walter Guyott in the Harwood block on Monday after noon. He happened to be passing in the rear of the block and was attracted by the smoke which came from Guyott's flat and breaking the kitchen he grabbed two rugs and the linoleum which covered the floor and threw them out. The fire probably started from spark from the stove It was very fortunate that he happsnedi dong as the family were out at the lime. As it was, the dainag6 vas 'light and the assistance of the fire department was not needed.

The warden | has had considerable correspondence from civil engineers relative to the new trunk line, but no definite de- ,ision has been made on the engineer. Public sentiment seems to favor the laying of the sewer the entire length )f the avenue, for the condition of the stream at the lower end, near the center of the borough caused by the sewerage that is now being emptied into, it is menace to public health.
