For COLDS

We all catch colds and they can make miserable;
but yours needn't last long if you will do this: Take
two three tablets of Bayer Aspirin just as
possible after cold starts. Stay in the house if you
can-keep warm. Repeat with another tablet or two
Of Bayer Aspirin every three four hours if those
symptoms of cold persist. Take good laxative when
you retire. and keep bowels OPEN If throat is sore,
dissolve three tablets in quarter-gassful of water
and garge. This soothes inflammation and reduces
Infection. There is nothing like Bayer Aspirin for
cold or sore throat. And it relieves aches and pains
almost instantly. The genuine tablets, marked Bayer,
are absolutely harmless to the heart.

 of Probate
Would Be Unable to Complete Twe-
 Year Term

Harmony reigned at the Demoerat- ie caucus held m the Municipal build ing. Monday evening. The full state ticket was named by exclamation. The caucus lasted little more than five minutes.

 A. D. Mcintyre was nominated to oppose Judge Henry N. Benoit, present incumbent and Republican nominee. for judge of probate. Major Mcintyre has held public office. Among the other offices he has been city clerk, member of the board of relief and of the town school committee. He has had an outstanding military career and Is man widely known in Put nam where he was for years in busi- ness, first as a photographer and then as dry goods merchant.
 Will Reach Age Limit
 Major Mcintyre was born October 9th. is62. and is therefore 6s years old. If elected he would assume office in January, 1881. As he would reach the age limit for judges. 70 years, 0c- tober 9th. 1882, he would be unable to serve the full two year term to January 1888.
 The following were nominated for justices of the peace, the leaders of the party being sure not to make the mistake and nominate more than the law allows as they did in naming their nominees for constables on the town ticket: James ]. Charron, Alexander Gilman. Henry J. Dubois, John J. Me Garry. George Potvin. Frank Vadnais and P. ]. Ryan.
 The caucus was adjourned and Thomas P. Ryan called meeting of the town committee on the fiooI above.
