Miss Mary Roach, of 198 Center street. Meriden, Conn. writes under date of April 4. 1902: “The first time I ever heard of this wonderful medi- cine was about ten years ago while ly- ing in a cot at the Post Graduate Hos- pital suffering from the effects of an operation. An old lady in the next bed told me when I left the Hospital to get a bottle of Mother Seigel‘s Cura- tive Syrup. At the time i was not only suffering from the effects of the operation but also from Dyspepsia and General Debillty. I had Dyspepsia so badly that I could eat scarcely any- thing and if I did eat any solid food at all. a lump would arise in my throat which made rue feel like spitting all the time. and when i did so. would spit flecksaof blood. I was so dizzy that If I looked at any moving object such as swaying trees i thought I was swaying also. My face was covcrcd with pimples and I Was altogether in a dreadful condition. brrt after using Mother Scigcl's Curative Syrup for months i was entirely cured and have enjoyed the best of health ever since. lcan heartily recommend it to anyone suffering as i was."

Attorney Stiles Judson in a speech on school matters in Strntford recent- ly stated that the town of Stratford did not buy one cent for the tuition of pupils from that town enrolled in the Bridgeport High School. The statement made by Mr. Judson resulted in much discussion in vari- ous other towns taxed for the tuition of pupils living within their borders and being educated at the Bridgeport High School. One parent showing a reporter a receipt for his daughter. the tax being levied on him, wanted to know how it was be was taxed for the expense. Dr. C W. Deane explained the mat- ter by stating: ‘lt is true the town of Stratford pays no tax for the tuition of its students at the Bridgeport High School. because the town maintains a high school. The parents of the pn- pils pay the tax. however, In Fair— field. the town pays all the tax. The town of Trumbull pays three-fifths of the fax and the parents of the pupils the remaining two-fifths. The City of Bridgeport receives no pupils from oth- er towns into the High School without the town or the pupils paying the tax and the city is sure to get it from the fact. that the payment is In advance." The explanation proves that Siratford receives no more privileges than other towns in this matter, despite the mis. taken impression resulting from Attor- ney Judson‘s statement.
