NO MORE BACKACHE
 NO MORE MISERY

Hundreds of people have been re- lieved of the agonies caused by weak, diseased or clogged-up kidneys by using Solvax, the new remedy that quickly reaches the source of all kid ney complaints.
 If you suffer with pains Tn your back and sides or have any signs or kidney or bladder trouble such as rheumatic pains, puffy swellings under the eyes or in the feet and ankles, If you are nervous, tired and run- down, or both- cred with urinaTy disorders, Solvax will quickly and surely relieve you or your misery.
 Solvax is probably the most potent remedy yet devised for ridding the sys- tenn of uric acid and driving out all the poisonous impurities which cause such troubles. It neutralizes, dissolves and makes the kidneys slft out all the uric acid and poisons left by the blood, and renders the kidneys and urinary organs clean vigorous and healthy.
 Many of the best druggists say that no medicine ought to be paid for un- less if does the user some good. Sol wax therefore sells under a positive guarantee to quickly relieve the worst cases of kidney trouble or your money refunded. Try Solvax today and If you cannot see and feel decided change for the better just go to the druggist from whom you bought 1t and tell him you want your money back and he will return it without question. This Is the strongest argum ents that can be offered in behalf of any medicine. Solyax IS sold in Norwich and vicinity by Lee & Osgood and other leading dealers.

ZIONIST MEETING RAISES $l35
For War Relief and Palestine Fund-After Vigorous and Eloquent Address From Two Leaders in the Zionist Movement-They Appeal for Creation of Jewish Ma tonal Spirit

are the chosen people of God, let us show that it was wisdom on His part to make us His chosen people. We have a strong position in Palestine, the inherent strength of a people re- siding on their own soil and the soil of their fathers. If we have any en- thusiasm, hope and imagination we strengthen our place there. Because we are the chosen people we should not live in anignoble way and it is our shame that we have not done any, thing to relieve the situation where brethren are fighting against brethren for alien countries. This condition IS not to be remedied by adherence and conformity to various nationalities, but let us become a united people on our own soil where we may surely trust that the God of our fathers will al- low us to live in our own land.
 The school children sang again aft CT MT. Lipsky's address, giving the song Our Hope, and having American and Zionist flags as they sang. They were under the direction of their tea cher, Rabbi Joseph Silver.
 Dr. Levin, who spoke in Hebrew. made stirring speech, enlarging upon the need of a national spirit and that the Jews should use their strength for their own benefit and not for the help of other nations.
 He spoke for nearly an hour and when he had concluded Herman Alof-  buttons, which met a very ready re- sponse. The first and largest was of $10 there were many s5 contributions and many of smaller amounts. Among the contributions were S5 from the He brew farmers of Montville, S5 from the Young Mems Hebrew association. $1 from the Jewish Boy Scouts, and $2 from the Girls Zion club.
 At the rear of the stage hung a large American flag and small Zion ist flags of blue and white were also used in the decorations.
 The meeting concluded with the singing of America and two verses of the song. O My God, which had been written by Rabbi Silver and was sung by the school children to the tune of America.
 After the meeting at the Colonial there was a banquet given to the speakers at Pythian hall, where T cov- CTS were laid and those who attended were the officers and members of the Norwich Zion camp. Ore of the guests was M. Pleskoff of New London, who had escorted pr. Levin here after the meeting that was held there in the afternoon at which Dr. Levin and Hon. Lipsky were speakers and the con- tributions amounted to $190.

preacher set forth the enormity of the sin of impurity.
 In the early days of the church, man was penalized for this sin in the se- verest way and it was ranked in seri- ousness with idolatry and murder. The passing of the years has not lessened its enormity, the preacher said, all though the rigor of its punishment may have been relaxed.
 Sins against chastity reduce men to a level below that of the beast and profane that body which St. Paul calls the temple of the Holy Ghost Again, St. Paul declares all Christians mem bers of Christ; hence the gravity of such sins in these members is appar- ent.
 To keep free from impurity it is necessary to avoid the occasion of sin, to gain fortitude and grace by means of the sacraments and to trust, not in ones own strength. but in prayer. The preacher eXhorted his hearers to avoid this detestable sin and to so live as to merit the promise of the Saviour, Blessed are the clean in heart, for they shall see God.

FOUR THINGS THAT THE
 MUSTARD SEED SAYS
Made Topic fer Rev. Arthur Varley's
 Talk at Y. M. c. A,

Those who attended the Y. M. c. A. service in the association parlors Sum day afternoon heard one of the finest addresses delivered at the meetings this year. The speaker. Rev. Arthur VarleY, pastor of the Taftville COngre- gational church, chose as his subject the parable of the mustard seed. Rev. MT. Varley said that in his experience as a minister he has discovered that what men need most is simply en- phasis of the great truths of Jesus Christ.
 Imagining Christ making the tiny mustard seed talk Rev Mir Varley said the seed would say four things. The first of these was: Great results are possible from very small begin nings. Christ said in respect to his kingdom that it was like the mustard seed. There is such a thing as faith in the human heart and faith in the human soul, Rev. Mir. Varley said, and all that Christ asks is that faith have In it the possibilities of great results
 The second thing the mustard seed would say is: Make the very best of the situation. The third thing is: Listen and respond to the higher call That's the way a man must live and 1t is the way a man will live if he has the right sort of faith in his soul. Make the best of the situation you find yourself in and listen for the higher call
 The last thing the seed would say is: Be satisfied only with the largest and best possible. Don't let us meas ure our lives by the standard of other lives, unless it be Christ's life for we will go astray. It's no use wishing to be the other fellow. Let each one of us live our own lives and believe in the possibility of great results from small and almost impossible begin ninss. Let us listen for the higher call Let every one of us turn to Almighty God, have faith and let each one of us say: We will believe The way may be hard, the struggle long, but let us march on with the banner of faith and plant it on the very bat dement's of eternity.
 General Secretary Edwin Hill led the meeting and the music was furnished by SWahn's orchestra

ADVENT OFFERINGS TO
 HELP PLYMOUTH CHURCH.
Bishop Brewster Makes Request to
 Episcopal Churches.

The current issue of The Connecti- cut Churchman contains the following circular letter:
 ADVENT 1915. To the Sunday Schools of the Diocese
 of Connecticut:
 My Dear Children:
 You have all heard of Plymouth, Mass. and what made it famous. Here in Connecticut, we too have a Ply mouth, up among the hills of Litchfield county. There, on Plymouth Hill, for over hundred years. had stood a stately church. In and out of its doors had gone many children and their chtldren's children. This year the old church caught fire and was burned to the ground. Only few little things were saved. Would you not be sorry to have your church burned, and are you not sorry for those people who lost their church?
 Lately I laid the cornerstone of a new church. The good people of Ply mouth are bravely going ahead and doing all they can. But ask you this coming Advent to give your offerings 70 help build a church at Plymouth in place of the fine old church that was burned down.
 I am, faithfully your friend and bishop,
 CHAUNCEY B. BREWSTER.
