years ago, at the age of 29 years, and
went out in service. She attended the
same church as Dwyer did, and on one
Sunday about six months ago she saw
him there. Visits followed and a. mar-
riage engagement was soon announced,
culminating in the marriage on Aug.
29. But two friends were present. Mr.

THEY WILL BOLT.

The People of the IIorwalks are
ViIaIIy Interested

 

One Case, and There are
Others.

 

There is a large body of bolters in
the Norwalks and vicinity.

The movements has been gaining
force for some time and has become so
powerful that those'interested are anx-
ious to declare themselves. They are
bolting ancient and useless’ methods of
eating catarrh and hay fever, ard
they have come over in full force for
California Catarrh Cure because they
have tried it and know its worth. Here
are the words from a N orwalk man
who has tried many medicines and
treatments before he got what he
wanted California Cat-arrh Cure the
greatest and only known cure for ca.-
tarrh.

Mr. Alfred Flatt, 9 Maple street, N or-
\ 'alk, says: “ I have been a great suffer-
er from catarrh for over thirty years,
having contracted the disease during
the war. My whole head seemed full of
scabs, and the discharge from the nose
and into the throat wassomething awful.
My head ached almost continually, and
I never got a. good night’s sleep. I pro-
cured a bottle of California Catarrh
Cure at Plaisted’s drug store, South
Norwalk. It has given me more relief
than I have had for years; my head is
very much improved and I can now
sleep all night. It is certainly a. great
releiver, and I am glad to recommend
it. Nothing among all the things I tried
before helped me one quarter as much
in months, as C. C. C. has in a few
weeks. ” ,

You don’t have to wait to find out if
it will help you for it relieves at once.
To avoid Hay Fever in its season, use
C. C. C. It is a sure reliever of this
and all mucous diseases. Use it to
break up your colds, and to prevent
colds “hanging on.” Price, 50 cents;
three times as much for one dollar.

THE DEAD HERMIT.

Johnson Used to (‘llmb'a Tall Hickory
. Tree to Pray and Sing.
Elizabeth, N. J., Sept. 7.—P. Johnson,

76 years old, an eccentric hermit who
died yesterday at a little hamlet called
Unionville, back of the read leading to

near Union and to whom he has not
spoken for years. Johnson was a vet-
eran of the late war, having served in
the First Connecticut heavy artillery,
and drew a pension.

After coming to Unionville he requed
to associate with any one. He walked
to the Union postoifice every three
months and rgceived his pension. His
only Eonipanions were a cat and a few
chickens. He was found dead by neigh-
bors. On a 60 foot hickory tree near his
hut Were a number of ladders, lashed to
the tree. Johnson used to climb at all
hours of the day and night to the top
of the tree, where he would pray loudly
and sing old fashioned hymns. .

The grounds and fences about the
place are covered with signs which he
painted in big black letters. On the
fence near the road is a. sign which
reads, “If you hitch here, I’ll cut you
clear." Over the gate is a huge sign,
“Infidelity is a through ticket to hell
without change of cars.” At the side
of the house is a sign six feet in length
on red poles, “Pride shuts the door of
heaven and opens wide the gates of
hell.” Over the well are the words,
“Glory be to Jesus.” On the top, of the
woodhcuse a sign stands clear and
bold, inscribed “My righteousness in
the sight of God is as filthy rags.” The
hermit was short of stature, wrinkle-'1
and bent, and wore a full, shagg
beard. Arrangements were made for
the funeral in the- old Connecticut
Farms church.
