important factor in the frugality of tl1r
nations, and i am convinced that if it
were practiced more generally in our
country. More would be less poverty

The civility and politeness among
"mas-cs abroad is another marked fea-
ture of life which we might well imi-
tate. It is not similated for effect up
on foreigners; one meets with it every-
where, and observes it in the inter-
course of the native citizens. Hand-
shaking and bowing and courtesy arc

jostlcd in a crowded street. the most
profuse apologies are offered. If one
abandons an unreserved seat in a con-
cert and returns to find it Occupied. the,
occupant will almost invariably sur-
render lt without any obligation other
than common civility. If you pass a
party of working men in the street
and they appear to obstruct the side-
walk, they will move aside even to
the street pavement to make room

this universal politeness among the
middle classes They are just as polite

A Citizen of South Norwaik Supplies
the Information.

Over ludf the complaints of mankind
originate with the kidneys.

A slight touch of backache first.

Twinglug and shooting pains in the
tolns follow. They must be checked.
’l‘bey lead to grnver complications.

The sufferer seeks relief.

Plasters are tried. and llnlments for
the back.

So culled kidney cures which do not
cure.

The l1111g-iooked-for-result seems till-
attainable.

if you suffer, do you want relief?

Follow the plan adopted by this
South Norwulk citizen.

Mrs. James Jennings, of 3 Tollcs
street, resident of South Norwalk,
says: ”i. like a lot of other citizens

got lioan's Kidney Pills at Plalatcd's
drug store. My back ncbcd at the
time and although I had very little
faith in proprietary medicines, i
thought. they wouldn't hurt me and
they might do some good. I was sur-
prised how quickly and quietly they
acted. thu i finished the box the
backache disappeared.”

i nctd not say much about the super—
ior roads of Europe. i am mct of
11111111 by such remarks as that "they
made their fine roads abroad for mili-
tary purposes." which is only partially
.rnc. They may have done so fifty or
1 hundred years ago, but they have
-onlinued to do it long since the, net-cs-
.:ity for it vanished. and are going
ahead doing it now in all countries.
The mountain roads in Norway l have
inscribed. Those of Switzerland are.
wcll known and have been described

ienple. The secret of it all is that they
build roads here to last centuries, and
find it economical. The small begin-
ning we have made in Fairfleld county

best abroad.

The conditions of railway travel. the

of the people to music and the univer-
