No More Piles
Doctors Prescription Guaranteed

Thousands of Pile sufferers do not know that the cause of Piles is internal--bad circulation of blood in the lower bowel.
 This Is the scientific truth about Piles--the real reason why salves and suppositories do not give last Ing relief. why cutting does not re- move the cause.
 Your itching, bleeding or protrud- ing Piles will only go when you actually remove the cause. External treatments can't do this-an inter. nal medicine should be used. HEM ROID, the prescription of Dr J. s. Leohhardt. sold by good druggists everywhere, succeeds because. 1t stimulates the circulation, drives out congAsted blood, heals and re- stores the affected parts.
 So why waste time on external remedies or worry about an opera tion when Apotheearies Hall Go. in- vites every Pile sufferer to try HEM ROID with guarantee of money back if not joyfully satisfied with the help one bottle gives.

 Naugatuck, March Tt is not yet certain whether the board of public welfare will discuss the mat ter of selling land near the town farm owned by the town, at its next meeting, Monday night, it was learned today. 1t had been ex- pected the matter would come up for discussion but Borough En- gineer Robert D. Beardsley had not completed thorough survey con- cerning conditions there which he has been making.
 It is possible Warden Sheridan may bring the matter up using the incomplete plans as a basis. The warden is known to favor the plan which he believes would en- courage building in that section and help to solve the housing problem to some extent.
 At the meeting the town farm committee, consisting of Patrick Scully and Frank w. Eaton, Is eX- pected to report to the board set of rules governing which will be expected of the new town farm superintendent, Marshal McCann These may cause much discussion as there was difference of opin- ion about what work the superin. tendent should do at the last meet. ing, and 1t was finally decided tt put the matter in the hands of this committee.
 Supt N. Hadley Cox will report the addition to the hospital is un. derway with considerable work on it having been done. The town farm committee was authorized al the January meeting to investigate the need for this and have the work started.

N. P. CHURCH NOTES

The 25th Anniversary and Home
Coming of the NJ. P. Church Of Mil
ford was a great success. The pro-
gram was carried out exactly as
planned. There was not a single
break anywhere. The services were
simply great. All of the living eX-

were 2.s47 people who attended the
main services. That does not include
those who attended the Sunday
School and C. E. who did not go in
the main service, neither does 1t in
clude those who attended the sup
per. All together there were more
than 5000 in attendance. The flow
ers were simply beautiful and lots
OF them. In all il was a great sue
cess. Special thanks are due the
business people OF Milford. for the
beautiful manner in which they CO.
operated in taking the ads in the
program; these ads betrayed the en-
tire cost of producing. To add to the
greatness Of the occasion Mr.. A P.
Collins Of the Harrison Nursery do
mated a large amount Of shrubbery
and came and planted II in the
to add to the beauty Of
the scenery. The pastor and the en-
tire church appreciate very much
me kindness of Mr.. Collins. In all

Of the Anniversary. and the splendid
cooperation Of the people Of Mil
ford
