Only a Watermelon Seed.
, Some four months ago Wyllys Smith,
the six years old son of Mr. and Mrs.
Theodore E. Smith, indulged in a feast
of watermelon. Since that time he has
suffered from a cough which has been
assigned to all manner of causes but
the correct one. His father had about
dispaired of a cure and had made ar-
rangements to take him to a New York
specialist for treatment, when on Wed-
nesday last the youngster coughed up a
watermelon seed, since which time he
has not been troubled with the cough.
The seed is a treasure which will ever
prove to be a pleasure to parents and
child.

Sacrifice of Turkey to the Enjoyment of

Thanksgiving day was quite gener-

out-of-towners who came here for real
solid enjoyment.
The stores for “accommodation sake”
kept open until 10 o’clock in the morn-
ing, not including the dry goods stores.
The weather was fairly good but re-
solved itself into a min in the evening.
Union services were held at the Bap—
tist church in South Norwalk and also
at the Methodist church in Norwalk.
At the Methodist church a good

Prayer offered and the Proclamation
read by Rev. F. E. Robbins. The ser-

HOW TO FIND OUT.
Fill a bottle or common glass with
urine and let it stand twenty-four
hours; a sediment or settling indicates
an unhealthy condition of the kidneys
When urine stains linen it is evidence
of kidney trouble. Too frequent desir e
to urinate or pain in the back, is also
convincing proof that the kidneys and
. bladder are out of order.

Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy
fulfills every wish' 1n relieving pain in
the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and
eve1y part of the urinary passages. It
corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pain in passing it, or bad ef-
fects following use of liquor, wine or .
beer. and overcomes t at unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to get up

AMUSEMENTS.
The-Star Gazer.
Local theatre geers will be pleased
to learn that Manager Hoyt has se-
cured that inimitable laughter-provok-
ing comedian, “J oe” Ott, in his famous
farce comedy, “The Star Gazer.” Mr.
Ott is too well known to need any ex-
tended introductory encomiums. For
his present season he is credited with
having surrounded himself with a-com-
pany of comedians far and away supe-
rior to any he has yet offered. “The
Star Gazer,” with everything new and
'up- -t-0 date. including a host of pretty
girls. comes to Hoyt’ sTheatr e, Friday
after noon and evening. Matinee p1 ices,
15 and 2.13 cents. Evening. 25. 35, and
50 cents. .
Alabama?
The most delightful stOry of Ameri-
can life upon the stage will be told
Monday, Nov. 29th at Hoyt’s Opera
House, the story of Augustus Thomas’
now famous play, “Alabama,” The
mellow moonlight of the South will
gild the battered walls around Col.
Preston’s little yard. The sweet music
of darkey voices will rise and fall
through the shades of palmetto groves.
In .the glamour of the moonlight that
pours down so warm and tender through
the trees Captain Davenport will meet
again the love of his early years, will
find his father and his daughter, and
the old wounds will be covered with
poetry and peace. N 0 play was ever
so fascinating as “Alabama.” One
can see it over and over again and dis-
cover new beauties in it each time. It
is refreshing in these days of horse-
play and sensation to witnessa play 3
like “Alabama” and it is pleasant to
record that it is one of the most suc-
cessful plays of the day. The cast of
this famous play will be up to the high
standard that has always been main-
tained for it. The company to present
the piece here is with a few exceptions
the same as has been seen in it for the
past three seasons.
