Section 1688 of the General Statute reads: "Every person who shall assist, abet, counsel, cause, hire, or command, an? other to commit any Offense, may be prosecuted and punished as if he were the principal offender.” This section makes it look' bad for Imapassino, Fuda’s companion .on the night of the ‘East Norwalk murder. Each accuses the other and whichever is found guilty as principal it will go hard with the other. -———-———<+ _ “Nothing In it For Me." When questioned as to why he did not assist in unravelling the mystery of the East Norwalk murder an Official of this town replied, “there’s nothing in it for me.” This spirit is altogether too prevalent among some of our ofiicials, and unless “tips” are in sight they lose all interest in overtaking oli'enders. Here wasa brutal murder surrounded by much obscurity. but because fees were not-insured no action No one‘is expected to work without pay, but there are times when public cfficials should bestir them- selves regardless ef financial results. I’Dblic officials are necessary and their efficiency and activity are generally appreciated, but no particular indi- "Yidual is indispensable and when the first inquiry of a public official is, "what’s in it for me?" his usefulness is rapidly drawing to a close. “Qw— .~; gladlnns Quintin: Down.

How carefully mother guards the secrets of her boys and girls. At night as she carefully tucks the bed clothes round them she chides and warns that mother will be angry if they repeat last night‘s offense softly saying to her- self it’s only a. habit, but I must break them of it. This is mother’s mistake. The children cannot help it, and sweet, clean dry beds can be the resting place of every child when it is understood that the cause is not a habit but a weak- ness that can be cured. Active life of the little ones tendsto weakening the kidneys and weak kidneys mean ina- bility to retain the urine. This is a condition not a habit, and should have the same prompt attention you would give to the marked symptoms of any disease. One Dean’s Kidney Pills, .taken twice a day and at bedtime, will strengthen the kidneys of a child, and» in a short time there will be no cause to scold, for the so-called habit will disappear promptly. Here’s a grateful mother that adds her endorsement to our words: Mrs. William Wood who lives at 130 Colony street, Meriden. Conn., says: “My little boy of 10 years of age has always been troubled With weakness of the kidneys causing him to wet the bed. So many mothers punish their children for this, but I know he could not help it. I read about Doan’s Kidney PlllS curingincontinence of urine in adults and I thought they might help the little fellow. I procured a box and their use produced a marked benefit at once. It is very seldom he does it now and I shall continue giving him Doan’s Kidney Pills- until the kidneys are sound and strong. It is only out of gratitude that I permit publication but the trouble is a veryprevalent one and most people from modesty or diflidence do not speak of it. Physicians do not apear to be able to cope with the trouble and I consider it a mother’s duty to tell others about it when she has found a specific for this terrible annoyance. Doan's Kidney Pills are for sale by all dealers, price 50 cents per box, 6 boxes for $2.50. Sent by mail on re- ceipt of price. Foster—Milburn 00., Bufi‘llo.

Turner, of the State Insurance Of" fice, Salem, Ore, says: “Out of the scores of cough medicines in the market there is only one I have any confidence in and that is Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy. ' I make this statement after an experience of twelve years’ use of this valuable remedy. For coughs and colds it is splendid, but where its work is infallible is with children subject to croup. I keep it in my home at all times.” For sale by E. P. \Veed, Druggist. LIGHT PARCEL and l LUCKWUUU PACKAGE DELIVERY Cheap rates. Will also take orders for mes- «auger service in New York.
