finders Jacobsen Has Such Faith in this
 Dyspepsia Remedy that he
 Guarantees It.
 One of the greatest successes in the sale of medicine has been achieved by Mi-o-na, the standard dyspepsia rem- edy, and its sale is increasing so rap- idly that finders Jacobsen, the popular druggist, has hard work to keep a stock on hand. It is very popular with bankers, ministers, lawyers and others whose business or profession keeps them closely confined, while those who have brought on indiges. tion through irregular eating, worry, or other causes, have found relief in this reliable remedy.
 Mi-o.na comes in tablet form and is sold in metal box especially designed for convenience in carrying the medi- cine in the pocket or purse. It is pleasant to take, gives quick relief and should help any case, no matter how long standing. This remedy has been so uniformly successful that Anders Jacobsen will in future sell Mi-o-na under positive guarantee to refund the money if it should not prove entirely satisfactory.

While the people were enjoying this part of the entertain ment handsome easy chair was rolled in by Mrs. Leon Booth, and H. R. Howard presented it to MT. and Mrs. Williams with very pleasing remarks. MT. Williams responded very feelingly, stating their appreci
 ation of gift and kindness shown. There was music on the piano and cornet and singing. A very pleasant time was enjoyed by all present. The company left at an early hour, wish ing the newly welded couple long life and prosperity.
 Rev. George Curtiss, D. D., 79, died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Herbert K. Job, in West Haven on October 2. His father, Rev. Samuel I. Curtiss, was the pastor of the Union Congregational church for long time, and later served the church at two different times. Rev Dr. Curtiss was born at East Hampton January 5, 1857 and moved with his parents toAUnion when he was three years old. Here he spent his ohild- hood and youth and fitted for college. He was graduated from Amherst college in 1860. He secured his divinity education at the Hartford and Andover theological seminaries. After graduation he held several pastorates in Connecticut. In the spring of 1878 he removed to Union and ministered to the church here for about three years. He made quite a reputation for himself as pastor of the Wethersfeld Avenue Congre. gational church of Hartford, which church he served from 1881 to 1889. Then responding to the call of the west, he journeyed to Mayville, ND. where he was chosen pastor of the Congregational church of that place. Fargo college of North Dakota con. ferred upon him the honorary degree of doctor of divinity. He was g trustee of that institution. For the past fifteen years he had resided with his daughter, forsaking his chosen
