June’s Store at Winnlpauk Suffers a Vlsilalior of Both. ‘ The variety store of John June at \Vinnipauk was burglarized last night and the burglars not content with des- poiling the same of a quantity of cigars etc., set fire to the building. They gained entrance to the store by busting off a catch to a window—shutter in the building and then helped them- selves to WhiltUVL-l‘ came within their reach. 3 The store is but a few feet distant from the owner’s home. whose atten- tion was attracted at about 11 o'clock last night by a blaze of fire in the store. June lost not a moment in giving the alarm to which the Norwalk Mills com- pany fire brigade responded and soon after had the fire quenched. It was found that the store had been burglarized, the thieves gaining an entrance by forcing a window shutter. They helped themselves to cigars etc., and there was evidence that they spilled kerosene oil on the floor just be- fore their departure and ignited the same. The fire caused a damage of perhaps $25, which with the goods stolen would make the loss something like $100. The burglars carelessly spilled a box of cigars on their way home, a fact that may lead to the apprehension of the guilty party or parties. The fire loss was covered by insurance with O. E. Wilson. ‘v VA 7" Select Winter Gowns Early. It is a question to many women whether it is advisable to select fabrics for winter gowns as early as this, in view of the fact that new designs and materials are constantly added to the importer’s display during the entire au— tumn season. On the other hand, it is very certain that with so many differ- ent weaves put upon the market, the early shoppers have unlimited choice, which is not afforded them later on. This has been proved over and over again by women who have bought some stylish or handsome texture when it first appeared, and later on, wishing to match these same goods, have been un- able to do so. No duplicates are im- ported in a single season or year. It 1:: therefore a. very good rule to make a. purchase of an entirely satisfying Dat- tern or weave when one finds it, be it early or late; to hesitate and decide to wait is generally to lose the fabric de- sired or admired, especially in a city where tons of material are sold in a single day. Where Cyclists are Benefactors. It is a strange idea to many folk that this could be so anywhere, but far away in Siam, where bicycling is the pleasure of princes and nobles, it seems likely to have an enormous effect for the benefit of the country. Up till now the roads in Slam have been, excepting in the towns, few in number and very bad. It is clearly no, good to be an enthusiastic cyclist with-1 out the roads on which to ride, and the‘ Siamese aristocracy have fully realized the fact. The result is that new roads are to be made which will be practical for the pneumatic tire, and incidentally of the greatest service commercially, for hitherto an immense amount of the produce of the country has been wasted for lack of the means for taking it into the towns for sale. It is hoped that the fashionable bicycling craze may result in a good system of roadways through- out the country. ' That Throbbing Headache.

Whether Hereditary or ill a Syphilillc llalure, as well as all of the Terrible Ills that Attend such Alleclions, GURED BY Syphilis is a disease that is responsible for more untimely deaths and terrible conditions than any other known malady. I For years this awful disease was considered incurable. In fact, there are many doctors to-day who do not hesitate to tell a patient that he might as well make way with himself at once, as ever expect to get. relief from this disease when once contracted. 3' Such a course of reasoning is unsound. Modern science has done much to stamp out this dreaded malady, and as long as we have Smith’s Green Mountain Renovator to depend upon there exists the greatest hope of recovery. Smith’s Green Mountain Renovator has cured many cases of Syphilis, and, in fact, it has effected cures where everything else had been tried in vain. There are any number of people living to-day in sound health, who have been cured by using this wonderful medicine. Smith’s Green Mountain Renovator contains a specific antidote for this awful malady and eradicates it completely, if used as directed and persevered in. The many troubles that are noticed in the latter stages of the disease can be Rheumatism, blotches on the skin, falling out of the hair, ulcers in the mouth and throat, glandular swellings, and the many other symptoms that are known too well, give way when Smith’s Green Mountain Renovator is used. For sufferers not only from this terrible afiection, but from minor cases of blood poisoning, we would like to remind them that Smith’s Green Mountain Renovator is purely vegetable in its composition and is a genuine remedy that was formerly the prescription of a well known doctor. Sufferers from blood poisoning should not lose valuable time, but begin to take Smith’s Green Mountain Renovator at once. Especially in such diseases are delays dangerous and prompt action necessary. . That many terrible cases of blpod poisoning have been cured should give confidence to sufferers who are similarly afllicted, or are in danger of becoming as hopeless. . “ My son suffered frightfully from sores that covered his body and limbs. I gave him Smith’s Green Mountain Renovator and cured him in six weeks’ time. Rev. E. .D. HORKINS, Albany,Vt.” “ My son, eight years old, was afflicted . with sores all over his face and neck. . He had suffered in this way for two years. I heard of Smith’s Green Moun- tain Renovator and thought I would try it. In four weeks’ time he was entirely cured. E. G.

Mrs. Knappen suffered with scrofulous eruptions and with severe swelling of the glands under her arm, which seriously affected her breasts. Her 'child also suffered with scrofulous sore face. A complete cure was effected in six weeks by using mith’s Green Mountain Renovator.

I like to think that Shakespeare was fond of his glass. 1 . even cling to the tale of that disgrace- ful final orgie with friend Ben Jonson. Possibly the story may not be true, but I hope it was. I like to think of him as poacher. as village ne’er-do—well, denounced by, the local. grammar school master, preached at by the local J. P. of the period. I_ like to reflect that Cromwell had a wart on his nose; the thought makes me more contented with my own features. 1 like to think that he put sweets upon tlie chairs, to see finely dressed ladies spoil their frocks; to tell myself that he roared at the silly jest, like any East End ’Arry with his Bank Holl- dlay squirt of dirty water. I like to read that Carlyle threw bacon at his wife, and occasionally made himself highly ridiculous over small annoy nnces, that would have been smiled at by a man of well balanced mind. 1 think of the fiftyfoolish things a week I do, and say to myself, “I too, am a literary man.”——Jer0me K. To come in The Second Thoughts of an idle Fellow. Labouchere’s Clever Woolng. Mr. Labouchere, father of the first Lord Taunton, was employed as a young man in the great mercantile house of Hope. He applied to Sir Francis Baring for leave to pay his addresses to his daughter. Sir Fran- cis demurred, as Labouchere, though a rising young man, had no fortune. “But it Hope takes me into partner- ship?” said Labouchere. “Oh, yes, if Hope takes you into arinership.” ‘ Labouchere then went to Hope and lnttmated his wish for this arrange- ment.
