REsoLUTIoNs OF Rxsrpcr,

At special meeting of the Trustees of the Otis Library at 12 o'clock noon on Friday, Aug. 15. 1919. it was unani- mously voted:
 That it is with profound sorrow we have to record the sudden death, on Wednesday. the 18th instant. at his home. of our honored fellow member of this Board, John c. Averill.
 MT Averili was elected to it's mem bership in -1sss and has served as it's Treasurer through most of the twenty three years since his election to this Board.
 His services have been invaluable his devotion to the welfare of the I4- brary Hnfailing. and marked by an un- usual generosity in placing at the ser vice of the Library his much occupied time and his personal means.
 His record of attendance. not only at the stated meetings of the Trustees. but by casual yisits at the Library has been the best index of a profound in terest in it's progress and prosperity.
 We have lost a sincere friend-a wise. conservative and most valuable counselor. whose presence will be greatly missed.
 His very recent domestic oereave- ment had so stricken him as to cause anxiety for his own health-an anxiety justified by this sad event. -- We extend to his household and to those nearest Of kin our sincere sym pathy.

 Dangerous

says Doctor Connor, formerly of Johns Hopkins hospital. Thousands of men suffering from fatal diseases would be in perfect health today were it not for the deadly drug Nicotine. Stop the habit now before it's too late. It's a simple process to rid yourself of the tobacco habit in any form. Just go to any up to-date drug store and get some Nfcotei tablets; take them as directed and To! the pernicious habit quickly vanishes. Druggists refund the money if they fail. Be sure to read large and interesting announce naent by Doctor Conner soon to ap- pear in this paper. It tells of the danger of nicotine poisoning and how to avoid it. In the meantime try Nic- otol tablets; you will be surprised at the result.

Cynicism.

We are reminded that resentment. doubt ava cynicism are so easily mis- taken for the wisdom of disfllusion- nent that there is double reason to guard against them. Many a hurt soul fancies it is growing wise in the ways of the world when in truth 1t is only growing hard and bitter. An acquaintance with mankind does not mean merely learning humanity's seamy sjde and being on guard against it. A wider study will bring far different and more hopeful knowledge.
