Is it not a trifle late to discover that
the Portland’s life preservers were de-
fective ?

Ramon Blanco ought to be able to
engage in the banking business when
he returns to Spain.

One reason why editors rarely in-
dorse checks is their natural aversion
to handling paper with writing on both
sides. 1

The buttons Johnny Judge is distrib—
uting are not the kind designed to be
pushed—Telegram.

How is this ? We thought Johnny

belonged. to the “ push.”

EVE’S RAMBLINGS.
COMMENT A—NDEOSSIP AMONG

THE WOMEN. BY ONE
OF THEM.

 

"Women who regard it as their chief
end in life to attract admiration will
spend hours before the looking glass
and devote days in dress, not realizing
that one-half this time spent in culti-
vating their minds and in acquiring
the“ability to talk well. would accom-
plish the same purpose in a far greater
degree,” writes Mrs. Moses P. Handy,
when discussing “The Art of Conver-
satien.’

“ In the fi1st place. in order to talk
agreeably, it is 1equisite to have some-
thing to talk about. You cannot draw
water from a well where no water is,
therefore you must cultivate your mind
through reading and observation. Ac-
custom yourself to talk about what you
see and read.

It is a mistake not to talk to the peo-
ple of your own family; many a one has
g1 own tacitu1 n from conside1ing it not
worth while to entertain the home
folks.

Let the habit of story-telling be cul-
tivated; you cannot lack for auditors
while you have children among your
acquaintance. You will find that by so
doing your mental and lingual faculties
will be strengthened.

Keep yourself in touch with the
questions of the day; to do this give a.
few moments to the newspaper every
morning.

Always find out whether the person
whom you are to entertain prefers to
speak or to listen, and govern yourself
accordingly. Avoid as far as possible
all unpleasant subjects, and endeavor to
discover what is most interesting to
your companions.

With some persons this faculty
amounts to intuition, with others it is
laboriously acquired, but it invariably
grows by exercise. Talk of things and
not of people; gossip is not conversa-
Lion.

Never talk much of yourself nor of
your own affairs; it is in bad form and
generally it bores your hearer.

Avoid, also, unkind and censorious
observations about other people, and
never, if you can help it. make person-
al remarks, unless they are something
in the nature of a delicate compliment;
thus you will avoid treading on your
neighbors’ corns."

FEMININE CHAT.

Every one’s lot seems brighter than

If you can’t have what you like try
to like what you have.

It is a wine woman who knows when
she is really well elf.

Why is it one’s purse is always short
est when the days are also.

Satu1days and Sundays are of late?
blewer than the bluest Monday on 1ec-'

Some of the up-to-date hymns have all
the go of Sousa’s marches about them.

Thackeray says that a women with-
out a laugh in her is the greatest bore

 

in existence.

It is easy enough to criticise, but not
so easy to improve upon other persons’
actions. _

Many of us can be dreadfully fierce
who wouldn’t dare say “ boo ”in a per-
sonal interview.

Great trials have a dignity thatlittle
ones fail to possess, but the latter are
just as hard to bear.

No matter how often a- woman _is

' robbed she never seems to gain sense

enough to lock up any articles she may
still have left in her possession.

Not so many women are showing the
white feather this year as last. This
does not indicate any greater amount of
feminine bravery, but simply denotes
that blanched plumage 1s not so fash—
ionable as it once was.

In making Christmas, for goodness’
sake try this year, to remember your
poor friends more bounteouSly than
your rich ones.

Candy toys are again on sale at the
confectioners’, and there are many
of us who really p11efe1 them to the

If in doubt about the Christmas gift
for husband, father, brothe1 o1 friend,
by all means go to the Boston Store,
leaders in men’s furnishings. Their
stock is teeming with good ideas in

IIEGIIIIILESS OF AGE.

The kidneys are responsible for more
sickness, suffering, and deaths than
any other organs of the body.

A majority of the ills afflicting peo-
ple today is traceable to kidney
trouble. It pervades all classes of so-
ciety, in all climates, regardless of age,
sex or condition. .

The symptoms of kidney trouble are
unmistakable, such as rheumatism.
neuralgia, sleeplessness, pain or dull
ache in the back, adesire to urinate
often day or night, profuse 011 scanty
supply. ”

Uric acid, or brick-dust deposit in
urine are signs of clogged kidneys,
causing poisoned and germ~filled blood.
Sometimes the heart acts badly, and
tube casts (wasting of the kidneys) are
found in the urine, which if neglected
will result in Bright’s Disease, the
most dangerous form of kidney trouble.

All these symptoms and conditions
are promptly removed under the in-
fluence of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root.
it has a world wide reputation for its
wonderful cures of the most distress—
ing cases.

No one need be long without it as it
is so easy to get at any drug store at
fifty cents or one dollar. You can have
a sample bottle of this wonderful dis-

 

covery, Swamp-Root, and a book telling '

all about it, both sent to you absolutely
free by mail. Send your address to Dr.
Kilmer St 00., Binghampton, N. Y. and
kindly mention that you read this lib-
eral offer in THE NORWALK GAZETTE.
