C0NQU:RS RHEUMATISM
 INA VEaY FEW DAYS

It is an established fact that one half teaspoonful of Rheuma taken once a day has driven the pain and agony from thousands of racked, crip- pied and despairing rheumatics during the last five years.
 Powerful and sure: quick acting, yet harmless; Rheuma gives blessed relief almost at once. The magic name has reached every hamlet in the land and there is hardly a druggist anywhere who cannot tell you of almost mar yelous cures.
 If you are tortured with rheuma- tism or sciatica. you can get a bottle of Rheuma from Lee & Osgood or any druggist for not more than 50 cents with the understanding that if it does not completely drive rheumatic poisons from your system-money back.

 DEAD IN KITCHEN

 tack of Heart Trouble.

 Mrs. Murphy leaves two brothers John and Daniel Kelly. and two sis ters, Mrs. Michael Donovan and Miss Bridget Kelley.

MAY REDUCE INSURANCE RATES
Renspection of Local Conditions De Made Effort Place Norwich in Class Elf Successful Plan Means Reduction of Approximately Ten Per Cent. in Rates

It will be seen from these facts that six or seven points more will place Norwich in the next highest class. which is class B. In class the rates are approximately ten per cent lower than in class C. Since the inspection referred to has been made the fire de- partment has been provided with the Seagrave bumper, several new boxes have been secured and placed, the Main street chemical wagon has been moved to Greeneville and the auto chemical taken from the Central sta- ton and placed in the Main street sta tion, larger mains have been laid and there have been a number of other inn provements made.
 Building conditions have also inn proved considerably. It is hoped with these improvements that the rating given Norwich may be increased so as to place the city in class B through a re-inspection of local conditions. Ac- cordingly the fire commissioners have filed with Engineer Caldwell an appli- cation for a re-inspection which will be made without cost to the city.
