Mr. Jiwing's second text was from John 14: S. 1 am the way, the truth and the life, no man cometh unto the Father but by me.

The- words of the text are full of movement and tho t'hristian life Is a Journey and the movement is a definite goal. Jesus is the only and sufficient way. Man is the only one of God's creatures that is always unsatisfied. The soul is rest less until it finds its rest m Him. Mane Ctarist the sum and substance of your life.

Gager of Bozrah will Celebrate Golden Wedding this Afternoon and Evening. The spacious bonus of Mr. and Mrs. Charles A. Gager of Bozrah will be the scene of festivity and rejoicing to day when their sons and daughters and other relatives and friends gather to help them celebrate their golden wedding. They were married in Boz rah. hardly half a mile from where they now reside. About one hundred invitations have been issued and prob ably between two and three hundred people will call between the hours of three and ten this afternoon and eve ning, to pay their respects to Mr. and Mrs. Gager and congratulate them on the occasion which happens in the lives of but few. The house has been attractively decorated in the appropri ate color of yellow, with green trim mings. Already many handsome and valuable gifts have been received and the event will be made a memorable one to the happy couple, who. though slightly advanced in years, are still as youthful in spirit as ever. Charles A. Gager is a native and life long resident of the town of Bozrah. He was born in the Gager homestead off Bozrah street, June 15, 1837, the eon of Wealthy Ann Huntington and Samuel Austin Gager. He received his early education in Bozrah and later attended Monson academy at Monson, Mass., where he was a school mate of the late Judge Charles W. Carter. On his return to Bozrah, Mr. Gager at once took up farming, an occupation which he has followed ever since. On January 11, 1859. he was united in marriage with Harriet Francis Fargo by Rev. Nathan S. Hunt, the wedding taking place in the old Fox house on Bozrah street, the home of the -bride. Soon after their marriage Mr. and Mrs. Gager took up their residence on FIFTEEN YEAR OLD BOY DROWNED IN PARK. Paul Brosofske Broke Through Thin Ice at Spalding's Pond Another Boy Rescued. Paul Brosofske, the 15 year old son of Mr. and Mrs. William Brosofske. of No. 665 Boswell avenue, broke through the ice and was drowned Saturday af ternoon about 3.30 o'clock at Spalding's pond, in Mohegan park. Another boy of about the same age, Dan Williams, who lives on North street, also broke through the ice Just afterwards, but struggled towards shore until he was reached and pulled out in safety. The body of young Brosofske was recover ed from the bottom of the pond about 8 o'clock Sunday morning. When found it was by the side of a stump on the bottom and the position of the arms indicated that he probably grasped tho stump In his drowning struggles and thus kept himself from coming to, the surface. The unfortunate accident, which put an end to skating there for the rest of the afternoon and evening, occurred when tho pond had a crowd of about 300 skaters on It, the ice being about four inches thick and furnishing fine skating except at the upper end near the shore, where there was a stretch f thin black Ice which had been newly formed in the last freeze. While skat ing alone, young Brosofske broke through here and sank after a short struggle. It was said that he could nt swim. As soon as he was seen in the water a number of men skated down the pond to where Superintendent Duff had a rope which he had provided- for such emergencies, and this was thrown to the boy, but fell short and he sank, and did not rire again. Just after he had disappeared from view the Williams boy broke through some distance farther along the shore and the rope was rushed over there to rescue him and planks were also brought which Superintendent Duff keeps in the pavilion, having provided them last week with a view to possible accidents. The Williams boy could swim and broke a path through the ice for some distance until he was about ten feet from shore, where a tree trunk was pushed out on tha ice and Harry Chounaira climbed out on it and puked young Williams in. The rescued boy was taken to the pavilion, where his clothes were dried out In front of the log fire. While watching the search a third boy broke through, going only up to his knees. W. Russell Baird with his automobile drove down to police headquarters for an officer, returning with Policeman Irish, who cleared the pond, assisted by Supernumerary Sullivan, as it was not considered safe to have a big crowd gather on the ice while the recovery of the body waa attempted. Archibald Torrance, the contractor, offered his team to Superintendent Duff, who came to the city and secured a boat lwm Calvin Bri-ggs of the East Side and grappling irons from Charles H. Butts of Thames street. When these had been brought up to the pond a search for the body began, H. Levltsxy anu Philip D. Wllhelmi dragging the bot tom, but without success. This waa given u at dark, when the grappling irons were lost. The boy's father also helped in the search At daylight Sunday morning Super intendent E. L. Burnap of the water department, Calvin C. Williams and William Bllcq went up to the park with Superintendent Duff and locateo. tne body in arout twelve feet of water, lust about where he went down. They lo cated the spot with a stick and Mr. Burnap brought the body to the surface with a hook that Mr.Wilhelml had made and had brought up to renew the sea rch. The body was taken ashore, where It was viewed by Medical Examiner Paddock, who returned a verdict of accidental death by drowning and gave Undertaker Murphy permission to take charge of it. Dr. Paddock expressed considerable surprise that there was no roat at the pond and said he thought this was a precaution the park authorities ought to provide besides having the rope and planks on hand. The drowned boy was one of a fam ily of nine children, being the fourth, and would have been 15 on the ISth of this month. He was a native of thij city and was well spoken of by all who knew him, and much sympathy is expressed for his family. PRAYER MEETINGS Will Be Continued Five Nights This Week at First Baptist.

CATARRH CURED No Cure, No Pay, is a Most Generous O.ler. To get an antiseptic strong enough to kill catarrh germs and not destroy the tissues of the membrane at the same time, has been a problem which was never solved until the discovery of Hyomei (pronounced High-o-me). Hyomei is prepared from eucalyptus, the most powerful yet healing anti septic known. Breathe it through the inhaler over the inflamed and germ ridden membrane; four or five tlnjfj a day, and in a few days the germs will disappear. The inflamed condition will go, too, and the snuffing, hawking and offen sive breath, and the discharge of mu cous and crusts in the nose will cease: Then why should any cat arm suf ferer hesitate, when The Lee A Osgood Co. have such faith in Hyomei that they offer to return your money If after a fair trial Hyomei does not cure catarrh. A complete Hyomei outfit, including the Inhaler, costs $1.00. and extra bot tles. If afterwards needed, cost but DO cents. Hyomei also cures asthmn, croup, sore throat, coughs, colds or grip. ff w Wi CURES CATARRH, ASTHMA, Bronchitis, Croup, Coughs and Colds, oi money back. Sold and guaranteed by THE LEE & OSGOOD CO.
