If there is such a thing as pugilistic
lockjaw, Mr. Jim Corbett should make

every efiort to contract it.

 

By admitting that he is the only‘hon-
est prize fighter in existence, Bob Fitz-
simmons avoids the necessity of again

entering the ring.

The Litchfield Enquirer is fearful
that Fair field c0unty wants the speaker—
ship in addition to the governor and
senatorship. The esteemed Enquirer
can rest easy over the speakership as
Frank Brandegee of New London will
be the driver on that bandwagon, and
Fairfield county will have no candidate.

 

The telford road at Winnipauk will
probably be recovered when the last of

the snow melts.

COMMENT AND GOSSIP AMONG

THE WOMEN. BY ONE
OF THEM.

 

 

The whist craze among women seems
to be in no danger of subsiding. It is
still as- general as it is virulent. In
city, town and rural neighborhood the
country over one finds the whist club

n full swing.

' There are women who belong to such
organizations by the half dozen. and
whose entire time is spent in whisting
it first at one club and then at another.

.. A significant fact is the kind of
women making up these whist clubs,
being neither the society butterflies
pure and simple, nor yet those more in-
tellectual souls who go in for the mu-
tual improvement societies, but a kind
of cross between the two.

The feminine population of most
middle-sized cities is nowadays divided
into society women, club women and
whister-s. As in most things, the same
rule holds good of this city, but with a
Here the fever has not at-
tained its provincial virulence.

Norwalk women have too much
else to occupy them ever to become
wholly given over to any one frenzy.
An extravagant interest in whist un-
doubtedly exists, however, and it is
significant that of all frenzies that
women anywhere have lately indulged
in, this frenzy for whist has lasted
longest. .

Apparently age cannot wither nor
custom stale its infinite .variety. The
question of whether women play whist
as ‘well as ‘ men has long ago been set-
tled, and in their favor. Without doubt
some women play whist better than
some men, and there are steadily in-
creasing signs that before long it may
be that many women will play whist
better than many men.

There’s no getting away from it, how-
ever, that the average woman whister
plays the game in a very different way
from most men. She may follow the
rules to the letter, and it may be im-
possible to trip her up on a single tech-

pinch she looks for favors and she calm-
ly appropriates indulgences which the
very thought of would make a man
whister tremble in his boots.

“She may not call it cheating,” one
woman was heard to say to another up-
on a suburban train not long ago, “ but
I know they’d call it that in a man’s
club. What’s more, no man’s club
would put up with it for one minute. A
man that would do the things that Mrs.
Singleton does would be expelled from
any organimtion.” I

You know she always plays with the
same woman—Mrs. Yarborough—but I
never realized that there might be
method in such madness until the other
afternoon, when I played against them
for the first time.

. game, I turned and begged them to try

Blank’s, «cough mixture, they seemed
to be suffering from such dreadiul
colds.”

Glorious News

Comesfrom Dr. D. B. Cargile, of
Washita, I. T. He writes: “Four
bottles of Electric Bitters has cured
Mrs. Brower of scrofula, which had
caused her great sufiering for years.
Terrible sores would break out on her
head and face, and the best doctors
could give no help; but her cure is
complete and her health is excellent.”
This shows what thousands have proved
——that Electric Bitters is the best blood
purifier known. It’s the supreme
remedy for eczema,‘tetter, salt rheum,
ulcers, boils and running sores. It
stimulates liver, kidneys and bowels,
expels poisons, helps digestion builds
up the strength. Only 50 cents. Sold

FEMININE CHAT.

_-—_——.

Christmas shopping has set in early
this year.

Shoplifters find the new golf capes a .

great help to their business.

The fur coat now smiles supercilious—
1y upon the cambric shirt waist.

There was cleaner cut sarcasm than
when we call some domestic servants
“help.”

It is a wise woman who is photograph-
ed now if she wishes to utilize her pic-
tures as Christmas gifts.

Woman will never be able to possess
such a comfort as a man’s pipe is to him
in all sorts of trouble.

The darkest time in the day is said
to be just before the dawn, but for
many of us it seems like an all-night
blackness.

To fully appreciate the meaning of
the term “a mighty atom,” just inter-
view a head waiter on the, ar range-
ment and cost of a menu. ‘13-!

THE KIDNEY‘ COMPLEXION.

The pale, sallow, sunken-checked,
distressed-looking people you so often
meet are afflicted with “Kidney Com-
plexion.”

Their kidneys are turning to a
parsnip color. So is their complexion.

They may also have indigestion, or
suffer from sleeplessness, rheumatism,
neuralgia, brain trouble, nervous ex-
haustion and sometimes the heart
acts badly.

The cause is weak, unhealthy kid-

 

 

neys.

Usually the sufferer from kidney
disease does not find out what the
trouble is until it is almost too late,
because the first symptoms are so like
mild sickness that they do not think
they need a medicine or a doctor until
they find themselves sick in bed.

Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root will build
up and strengthen their weak and dis-
eased kidneys, purify their diseased,
kidney-poisoned blood, clear their com—
plexion and soon they will enjoy better
health.

You can get the regular sizesat the
drug store, at fifty. cents and one dol-
lar, or you may first prove for yourself
the wonderful virtues of this great dis-
covery,-Swamp-Root, by sending your
address to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Bingham-
ton, N. Y., for a sample bottle and a
book that tells all about it, both sent
to you absolutely free by mail. When
writing kindly mention that you read
this liberal offer in THE NORWALK
GAZETTE.

the Boy and His Cap.

“I can’t find my cap anywhere." is
a sentence more or less familiar in
the household, that, being what the
boy says, looking for his c‘fi‘p. when
he wants to go out to play Early in
the search he enlists his mother. and
that may make a serious business of
it. She has to drop her dusting or
whatever household work she may be
engaged in, and the search may take
a long time.

“Where did you put it when you
came in?” is a question sure to he
asked, sooner or later, but all the boy
can answer is:

“I don’t know.”

And then the search goes on. Every-
where. over and under, in all sorts of
places, all at a great loss of time, if
not of temper. It is found at last, as
most things are, in time, and in some
simple easy place. which makesthe
finding of it all the more exasperat-
log.

The boy takes it and goes out to
play, and straightway forgets all about

- it, but it may take quite a little time

to restore the normal calm in the
house. .

It is a mystery how the boy manages
to lose his cap as often as he do",
but. it appears to be a boy's way, and
common to almost all.

Then—well, I’m not particularly as- ;
tute, but if I’d had millstones on in-;
stead of pince nez I couldn’t have fail- :
ed to see what those women Were up to. ‘
I’ve heard my undergraduate son talk =
about “coughing up a yell for Yale,”
but what do you think of two women
whisters who will deliberately cough
in a certain way when they want acer- i
Lain suit led? '

That’s what those two did. For
clubs it was one cough; for spades,
two; for diamoads, three, and for
hearts none at all. I couldn’t out and
out denounce them then and there, but
I made up my mind to ltt it be general-
ly known that they hadn’t deceived
me. The other wondered whether the
accuser might not have been mistaken.

“Mistaken!” replied the ’ accuser.
“Well, if I had wan-tel proof I would
have had it in the way 15 may each turn-

and you’re unlucky."

“Why, then, did you come?”

“ 'Cause I ’ad to 'avo a. thirteenth.

Discbvered by a Woman.

Another great discovery has been
made, and that to, by a lady in this coun-
try. “ Disease fastened its clutches up-
on her and for seven years she with-
stood its severest tests, but her vital
organs were undermined 'and death
seemed imminent. For three months
she coughed incessantly, and could not
sleep. She finally discovered a way to
recovery, by purchasing of us a bottle
of Dr. King’s New Discovery, for Con-
sumption, and was so much relieved on
taking the first dose, that she slept all
night; and with two. bottles, has been
absolutely cured. Her name is Mrs.
Luther Lutz.” Thus writes W. C.
Hamnick 8; Co., of Shelby, N. C. Trial
bottles free at John A. Riggs’ drug
store, 11 Main street. Regular size 50c
and $1.00. Every bottle guaranteed.
