ML— Speaking of the senatorship fight the New Haven News says that “Plain Sam” isn’t saying a word to indicate that he’s in the race at all. There’s more danger in smokeless powder than in a brass band. The sudden backing out of Col. Si- monds in the senatorial race isaco- incidence. It is safe to say that a rigid cross ex— amination of some Of the remonstrants in the Kirsch case would prove mighty interesting. a.“ The custom of wearing orange blos- soms in the hair originated in Spain, which probably accounts for some marriages being failures. Now that we’ve had the snow storm an avalanche of “oldest inhabitant” ,weather comments is about due. Genial John Rodemeyer of the New Haven News wants to know when will exemplary young men get their eyes opened to the bedevilling tendency of the cigarette,and seek the soothing sol- ace for brain and nerve that is to be found only in a briar pipe and navy cut plug. The answer is dead easy. When Fairfield County goes back on “ Our Sam.” EVE’S RAMBLTNGS. COMMENT AWSSIP AMONG THE WOMEN. BY ONE OF THEM. Martyrdom is magnificent, but noth- ing is more unsatisfactory in life than to suffer in’ silence. I always tell peo- ple my troubles. As a rule they listen kindly, and I feel- cheered when I leave them. Perhaps that is because I like talk- ing about myself. There was a time when I used to believe in the ideal wo- man to whom everybody went for sym- path y. In my 1magination she inhabit- ed a cottage with a smiling maid ser' vant, and yellow snap dragons in the front garden. I think she had white hair in the present, and an unhappy love affair in the past. Any way she was peaceful, and beautiful, and ideal. She always won everybody’s confidence, and she never betrayed it. I have never found that woman yet, and I have told my troubles to so many people that I am convinced I must have come across her bad she been in ex- istence. As a rule, the women in‘ whom I have confided have been worth- less. They have gone straight home and told their husbands “ all, about it. ” I have not blamed them for this. On the contrary I have been conscious of a faint feeling of sympathy. I have com- mitted the same sin myself, and I do not believe that my temperament is wholly despicable. But a long course of telling my troubles has brought about a certain attitude of philosophy and ob'Servation. I am quite certain that I never tell my troubles to any woman because of the intrinsic beauty of her character. On the contrary, "I do it on account of the inherent rashness of mine. FOr this reason it annoys me when women take the telling of troubles as a compli- ment paid to their personality. It is no such thing. Anybody will tell their troubles if they can find somebody 'willing to lis- ten to them. If they do not, then they are those ditlident, reserved people with whom all things are deep secrets. And I would defy even the lady with the smiling servant, and the snap drag- ons and the white locks, and the remote love affair. to obtain one glimpse of their feelings. g fiaty‘fet a/(gue. ————-‘__. FEMININE CHAT. The shortest andhappiest days are the busy ones. 'Does'any real liiIe woman ever look like the figures in the fashion plates? Judging by the great demand for lockets, women are growing decidedly more sentimental. Some of the wonderful sable capes we see and envy are not sable at all, but only dyed fox. Skating costumes do not seem to be such utterly ridiculous ideas '1 ow as they were a week ago. ' ' , 1“” coald beg ashard for ourselves as we can for charity, how suddenly rich we would become. ‘ . A wonderful memory is really not to be envied, as it makes us think of things we would like to forget. No one realizes what an ugly simile it is to say that anyone is born with a person of atrocious table manners is ob- served in the act of eating soup. There will be no_ better place to buy Christmas gifts than at the Boston Store. ‘ Some small boys grieve because they are tanned by their father, while their big sisters are tanned by the sun. There is nothing a woman worker envies so much. as the privilege of her more fortunate sisters to stay at home when they feel ill. Many a woman went out with a white skirt yesterday who returned with a black one, and she didn’t stop en route to change, either. Nothing makes you so furious as to receive a note from a friend asking you to defer'a visit that you had al'.l ready decided not to make. A woman has to possess a positively angelic temper, if she can smile sweet- ly when a man in the street car puts his wet umbrella against her best frock. Wives are Often blamed for telling their husbands all the secrets reposed in them, but there Would be much less matrimonial difficulties if there were more such confidences. A A-_ ‘ V 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 suffering 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.

He is under arrest at White Plains, N. Y. Andrew Schlechtweg has been designated to go after the pris- oner. I 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- ne 5. 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 sizes at 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.

Hand Win-k; Apropos of the death of Winnie Da- vis. there is a story told of her by a resident of Philadelphia, which shows why she was held so dear by the 'vet- erans of the Confederate army. The man who tells it was a colonel under the stars and bars, and is now a rich man. “But five years ago I wasn’t." he says. “I’d lost every penny I had before the war and I had not made many since. A big slump in the West had done for me, and I put up at a New York hotel with just enough to pay my bill and no more. My nerves gave way and I was taken ill. The doctor said I must have a long rest and a complete change of scene. I said I might rest in the grave and change this scene for that of the next world, but that I had no money or friends and would never leave the city any way but feet first. Well, Miss Davis was stopping at that hotel. She knew I Wouldn’t accept money from her, so she got the doctor to pretend he was lending me his own. I went abroad and came home cured and al- ready on the way to health. It was only then that I found out whom I owed 'my life to. You know her book.

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.
