pension for Mr. Wm. Taylor, but has also
made the “crooked” paths straight thereby

In justice to Mrs. Jones it should be said that

gratuitous, and that her difficulties were of
no ordinary nature.

ing at Mr. A. B. Hull’s. She is nearly eighty-
six years old, is remarkably active and VI);-
orous for a person of her age, and as she is

WESTPORT.
More than 200 persons. it is estimated,
visited Westport, Thanksgiving day. They
came from all directions, for WestPOTI has
representatives everywhere, and they enjoyed
themselves of course, as‘they always do
when. “at home." A light fall of snow gave
a Wintry look to all outside, but within busy
matrons garnishing turkeys, and hot fires
sending forth odors 0f plum pudding and
roasting poultry’s quint essence, made it
slimmer, as it were. Servicesin the churches
were well attended, the preachers taking
occasion to dilate on the country's prosperity
and the need of giving thanks therefore.
As hast; ball, shooting and other games could
not be indulged on account of the snow,
social matters wore a. bright hue and for
once, Thanksgiving was a domestic affair.
Mr. and-Mrs. Wm. L. Coley have been
celebrating their silver wedding.
County Commissioner Wright, was in
.town the other day looking after the appli-
cations for licenses. There seems to be a
difference of opinion among our officials as
to the number of licenses to be granted, some
being in favor of unlimited granting, and
others that the number should be curtailed.
In the latter view, it would seem to them
that one liquor stand on the west side of the
bridge, and two on the east side, will be ad-
equate to all requirements.
Our farmers are bringing large quantities
of manure by sloop from New York. Seven
loads having thus far been received. They

“What has become of our Indian sum-
mer ?” asks the New York Tribune of Sun—
day, 18th. Old 5farmers answer: “It is yet
to come," especially those who have turnips
in the field yet to dig. These are confident
that the late cold shap is premature ; that the
early closing of the river to navigation will
not last,—-that men ‘cannot yet commence
filling ice houses; that a great thaw is com-
ing which will surprise the prognosticators
who would have five months of winter, and
that before Christmas there will be a season
of mildness that will come acceptably to'all.
In the absence of this condition how are
farmsrs to do their fall plowing.
ABridgeport firm employing 100 hands,
will, it is said, locate in the buildin.r at Sang-
atuck lately occupied by thegpom Manu—
facturing Company. Piano Fortes and
Organs will be made by the company, and
there is a prospect of lively times again on
the south side of the railroad.
The foundry project is not yet abandoned
though work looking to the obtaining of
funds to be given to the foundry firm as an
inducement to come‘ here, are not as active
as they might be, This is so not for want of
appreciation of the importance of the case,
but from diffidence as to who shall make the
first move, one being afraid and another dare
not.

A Bridgeport paper suggests that the name
of the annual Thanksgiving day be changed
to “General J ollification." A good idea, as
the way in which the day is universally
spent, belies its name.

An effort is being made to form the Miles

The Bridgeport I-Iorse Railway Company
is now doing a paying business. Since the
farc'was reduced to five cents, loaded cars
has been the result. While the fare was
eight cents, a loaded car. was an exception.
Mr. Lashcr the superintendent is ever watch-
ful of the wants of the public, and the general
Verdict is, “the right man in the right
place." Drivers and conductors on other
roads might take lessons in civility and po—
liteness from their contemporaries of Bridge-
port, and profit thereby.

To Whom it May Canoe n ,
I take great pleasure in making the follow-
ing statement: I have been afflicted with a
disease of the kidneys for the past two years,
and have tried numerous remedies with only
partial and temporary relief. Warner’s Safe
Kidney and Liver Cure was recommended to
me, and after taking it the pain and distress
left me, and I am today feeling strong and
well. I am perfectly satisfied that Warner‘s
Safe Kidney and Liver Cure is the medial e
needed, and can cheerfully iecammend it to
others. G. W. STAMM.

Idle Experiments.
When a man is well and sound he can 8f-‘
ford to be indifferent to the character of all
the medicine in the world. But when dis
ease is fairly eating him up, he must do
something at once and do it intelligently.
Therefore, do not dose yourself with a bun-
dred‘things in the hope that some of them
may hit the mark, but try Dr. David Ken-
nedy’s “Favorite Remedy” which hits it
every time. For kidney and liver troubles,
piles and constipation, it is just what you
want. Druggists haVe it, or mail one dollar
to the doctor at Roundout, N. Y.

President-elect Garfield, when he was a
very small boy of three years old, went to
school to a lady who in her old age delighted
to relate the little fellow’s pranks. He was
so p. rsist :ntly mischievous that to keep him
still his teacher promised him that he might
sit on the larger bench as soon as he learned
to read. He went to work with a will to
learn, and bet" roe he had been at school a week
he could say his letters, and several weeks
before the end of the term he claimed and
received his permission to sit on the high
seat with the older scholars.

.Colonel T. W. Higginson says that the
feeling in England toward America is the
feeling of unwilling respect toward a power—

stuffs are making light the work of English
millcrs, and American machinery and inven-
tions are steadily advancing in the, English
market. Mr. Chamberlain. M. P., told a
friend of Colonel Higginson : “Formerly we
sent screws from Birmingham to America to
the extent of. tens of thousands of pounds an-
nually Now American screws undersell us

Operation performed by Dr. Kennedy,
of Bondonc, N. 1., Proprietor of
“ Favorite Remedy."
It. Abram Ellsworth, a wealthy merchant
of Port Ewen, Ulster Co. , N. Y., had suffered.
for more than twenty-five years with a disease
involving nearly the whole of the thigh bone,
and the suffering man was given up by all
the physicians who had attended him, who
said there was no help, he must die. Finally
Dr. Kennedy, proprietor of “ Favorite Reme-
dy," was consulted, who decided that ampu-
Ilation would save the patient. Dr. Kennedy
performed the operation, and then gave “Fa-
vorite Remedy,” to purify the blood, and thus
prevent the return of the disease,—and Mr.
Elsworth remains to this day, in the bloom of
health.
Are you suffering from any disorder of the
Blood, Kidneys, Liver, or Constipation of the
Bowels? Then use Dr. Kennedy's “Favorite
Remedy.”
For all the ills peculiar to Females, old or
young, Dr. Kennedy‘s “Favorite Remedy"

The Doctor lived with the Indians three years
and five months, and while with them learned
their different methods of healing the sick, with
roots. herbs, barks. and gums. The Doctor does
not worry on with a long list of questions, but
tells your (1 sense h looking at your tongue. The
Doctor takes the he a against the world in caring
all chronic diseases which inflict the human race.
and makes a specialty of all diseases of the lungs,
dropsy, liver complaint, dyspepsia, kidne com-
plaints, and Female complaints, viz.: Fa ling of
the Womb, Ulcers on the Womb. bites. and
weakness arising therefrom. The Doctor treats
catarrh, corns, bnnions, piles of any kind and all
private diseases of male or female, salt rhenm,
pimples on the face. scrol'ula affections and all
ilious complaints. 3m45
His medicines are all pro ared by himself and
are purely vegetable, ma 0 from roots. herbs,
barks and gums. When these extracts and active
principles are properly administered they far or:-
cel all other means of curin lingering diseases
that science has thus far pro ncc .
The Doctor does not claim to cure every one.
but if he can’t cure you he wili frankly tell you so.

Testimonial from “'m. N . Gra ’
_ . ‘Falr nave-u. mus’ or
_This is_to certify that for several years I was af-
flicted With disease of the liverand kidneys, and
was troubled very much with dyspepsia and a con-
stant pain in my back'and ail‘ection oi'the spine. I
was unfit for any hard labor. I was treated by
several physmians, but never received any perm-
anent benefit until I applied to Dr. Fiskc, am' I
am satisfied he is the only one that ever undo-r-
stoodm , case... He_examined nic clairvoyaiitly
and exp aipedmydmen so satisfactorily, and pre.
pared medicines which reached the seat of my
disease at once. He alsogave mcseveial magnet-
ic treatments, which entirely removeduthe pain
in my back andmpine. I have been under his
treatment only two-months, and I leel better noiv
than I have before in two years, and 1 think I am
entirely cured. I Would advise all who are af-
filiated to consult the Doctor at once. Ii he can do
for you what he has done for mcy‘ou will ever-have
cause to be grateful Sincerely yours.
WILLIAM M. GKANNISS.
Another Great Cure in new Haven.
_Thla is to ccrtifv that I have been sick fora long
trmc With difficulties of the Liver, Kidneys and
Spine. My lungs were very weak. and I had a
constant pain in my head. I have been treated
by different physwinns from time to iimc.biitnev-
er recei‘ved any permanent benefit until'l applied
to Dr. biske. He examined me clairvoyanilv. and
told me my feelings exactly, and I had taken his
medicines but a short time when I felt a change
throughout my Whole svsicm and I have trained
so rapidly that I pow consider myself cured ofall
my old chronic diseases with which I have suffer-
ed so long. ‘ I make this stmoment for the benc-
lit of suffering humanity, and I advise his valua~
blc treatment and medicines. Dr. Fiskc is a gen-
tleman skilled in his profession and honorable in
1” his dealings. Truly yours. -
