TRURSDAY‘, AUGUST 5.1897 ‘
F avorahle Report.
In spite of the long continued wet
weather in the seaboard States the
latest government crop report is favor-
able. Wheat that was belated in har-
vesting in the New England and Mid-
dle Atlantic region suffered a gooddeal
from the rain, but the bulk of the win-
ter wheat in the West and South was
harvested before the rainy weather set
in, and the spring wheat, which is now
being harvested, is grown chiefly in
the States west of the Mississippi in
Which the rain is not excessive at this
time. ' I
Corn is also making good progress in
the States in whiOh it is an important
crop, although it is suffering from heat
and drought in Texas and some portions
of Kansas and Missouri. On the whole,
the corn prospects are up to the average,
and so much of the wheat has been har-
vested in good order that it is hardly
possible that any future weather con-
ditions can prevent this from being an
unusually good crop year. “That this
means in the way of a revival of busi-
ness prosperity is already manifesting
itself in many directions. . Nature has
been lavish in its favors to American
producers this year, and the hungry of
other lands want our surplus crops. .

That’s a very
a candidate for the coroner. A signifi-
cant fact is that a vast majority of
these towns have already had a taste
of improved highways and now they
want another bite. For instance, of

state aid. Of the 16 applying towns in

The four New London county towrs
and the two Tolland county towns that
want to be in the swim have all been
there before. Five of the seven Fair-
field county towns now knocking at
Commissioner MacDonald’s door know
by experience the value of better roads.
The same is true of five of the six

of two of the three Litchfield county

Shall He Say Lady or Madame?
When occasion requires it, how shall
the. street car conductor, likewise the
motorman, address the female passen-
ger? inquires the Philadelphia Times.
Shall it be “lady” or “madame?” .
Must they be compelled to employ dis-
crimination and say "Mrs. ” and “Miss”
accordingly? What shall it be?
Recently this momentous problem
presented itself to the brainy minds
which direct the policy of the West
End Street Railway company in Bos-
ton. It seems that dignified matrons
had complained because they were
called “Miss.” Equally indignant
were the sweet young things who had
been addressed with “Mrs.” The ofii-
cials were too chivalrous a set to see
the women so put out over the matter,
so they began to flounder in the depths
Of thought and erudition in the hope
that a solution would be reached. After
a period of suspense, this edict on eti-
quette was issued by the superintend-
Out:
“On and after this date, conductors
and motormen in addressing women;
passengers shall substitute the word
‘madame’ for ‘lady.’ ” “Lady had
been the most general mode used.
The result has shOWn the wisdom
‘ dis played by the officials, for even now
those self-same fair patrons who so in-
every 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 that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to get up
many times during the nightto urin-
ate. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.
It stands the highest for its wonderful
cures of the most distressing cases. If
you need a medicine you should have

The Morgan & Wright single-tub
quick-repair tire ié guaranteed not
porous. This is on account of the way
in which it is made. Nearly every
rider has heard of tires that “leak
like a. sieve.”
Many tires rot, because water gets
into the fabric between the two layers
of rubber. The Morgan & Wright
fabric is proof against moisture. .
Everybody knOws how comfortable
Morgan & Wright tires are, and yet
how seldom they puncture. This is
due to the fabric.
Ask any bicycle dealer whether
other tires last as long as Morgan &
Wright tires. Ask, also, what the
'Morgan & Wright guarantee means.
Morgan & Wright tires are repaired
free of charge, at the factory in
Chicago or at any of the Morgan &
