' ‘ .1, A ._ MONDAY, DECEMBER 19 1898. _ W Norwalk actually seems to be waking up. It is predicated that by 'early Jan- uary every hatter in Nor-walk will be at work. It is to be hoped that in making his annual visit in Norwalk Santa Claus will not forget the boys and girls at the Childrens’ Home. Many a man loses his job trying to support the dignity he thinks ought to go with it. The Christmas shoppers should re- member the girl behind the counter. She is but human, and there is such a thing as making her weary. A Norwalk'man has succeeded in bunkoing a bucket shop. He has the admiration of his fellow countrymen. It will not be the least bit surprising if there is somewhat of a McKinley boom in the State of Georgia. Christmas never fails to bring about handsome displays of goods in the shop windows and those who tell about them in the columns of THE GAZETTE are the ones who sell them. A Louisville man has patented a fire escape. It is seldom that a Kentucky man invents anything more compli- ' cated than bung starters, cork screws, faucets, and other articles pertaining; to the principal product of the state. Au Indiana girl who was in love with a bank robber turned the man over to the police because he jilted her and married her mother. W'e believe this is the warmest society item Indiana has produced this Season. Some Foclish People Allow a cough to run until it gets be- yond the reach of medicine. They often say, “ Oh, it will wear away,” but in most cases it will wear them away. Could they beinduced to try the suc' cessful medicine called Kemp’s Balsam, which is sold on a positive guarantee to cure, they would immediately see the excellent effect after taking the first dose. Price 25c and 500. Trial size free.

Three new trains daily from New York, make the quickest time between here, Philadelphia, Baitimore and Washington, reaching the latter city in 5hours. They depart from Central R. R. of New Jersey station boat of Liberty street at 11:30 a. 111. 1:00 p. m. and 3:00 p. m. South Ferry boat of Whitehall street, 5 minutes earlier. The latter train is known as the “Royal Blue Limited,” composed entirely of parlor and dining cars that were built especially for this service by the Pull- man Palace Car Company. and are con- ceded to bethe finest specimens of the car builder’s art turned out in modern times. A general change of time on the Royal Blue Line occurred Novem- _ her 20th, involvin‘Ir other fast trains throng h to Philadelphia, Baltimore and ‘ vising accepted opinions with regard to books, proverbs and historical charac- ters. Even the Bastile has recently been whitewashed, and turns out to have been a palace in disguise. Surely, then, the time must have come for the popular list of virtues and vices to be» overhauled. It is true that the adjectives which are often prefixed to the seven deadly ——and other—sins of our ancestors show that some modification has already been felt to be necessary. We are familiar with such expressions as “virtuous indignation,” “divine dis- content,” “righteous anger,” “proper pride,” and so on, but there is, so far as we remember, no'stock epithet at- tributing merit toimpatience. _ Patience is classedwith the virtues, therefore, impatience, in the abstract, must be a vice. But it is certain that patience may degenerate into a vice, virtue—nay, that there is a kind of pa- tience which, if not exactly criminal in itself, at least results in lasting and far-reaching harm. Isis the impatient people who re- move abuses, who improve defective systems, who cause impossibilities to be performed. People will tell you that it is a waste of energy to be impa- tient about trifles; but trilies are what make up life, and the indolent and fatalistic proverb. “What can’t be cured must be endured,” reads much better in the inverted form, “What can’t be endured must be cured,” for patience is often a mere euphemism for indolence, and impatience a manifesta— tion of energy. “Ye suffer fools gladly,” says the apostle, “seeing yo yourselves are wise." But is this, one is tempted to ask, always quite good for the fools ‘3 It seems as if a virtuous character sometimes perfecte‘l itself at the ex— pense of a vicious one. The mother, whose patience with her eldest son's evil ways leads her to sacrifice for his sake not only her peace and comfort, but even the very necessaries of life, with the result that the youth, know- ing that he has always this resource to fall back upon, never pulls himself up and realizes that he must depend on himself. ' The wife, whose uncomplaining en- durance allows the husband todevelop, bully; the gentle girl, who bears with all the whims and fads of a selfish and overbearing sister, till the latter has grown into a querulous and exacting old maid, a terror to all her friends and relations. These are not imaginary cases: they are familiar to everyone. What would have been the result if the mother, the wife, the sister had one day “lost patience,” as we say significantly, pointed out to her tyrant in plain language the baseness of such conduct, and shown clearly that her mildncss was to be relied on no longer '3 ' These are serious instances, butin smaller matters a—shall we say judi- cious?~impatience may have beneficial effects. It is the impatient master of the house whose meals are ready punc- tually, whose potatoes are properly cooked, whose books and papers are not “tidied” out of existence, whose tastes are consult-cd,‘a‘nd who, there— fore, is a valuable influence in the dis— cipline of a household. lt is the impatient traveler who keeps hotels and railway trains up to the mark, and the impatient customer who compels the tradesman to look to the quality of his goods, and goadshim into enterprise and novelty. But let no one think that impatience is a virtue to be cultivated; it is a constitutional quality inevitably accompanying red hair. Not that itis wholly denied to own- ers of locks of other shades; rash would he be who should assert so much; but it requires no rashness to assert that, though an impatient person may culti- vate, and even to a certain extent acquire, the virtue—of patience, yet it is morally impossible for a patient person ever to become genuinely im- patient. Wonders, however, may be achieved by the simple process recommended by Hamlet to his mother, “Assume a vir- tue if thou hast it not,” and there are times, we contend, when impatience should be assumed if it is not possessed.

The streets are well-filled in the early hours of the evening with shoppers and during the afternoon the trade is good, at most of the stores. The Christmas trade this year according to tie views expressed by local merchants will ex- ceed that of hot car. . W ' and impatience serve the purpose of a. half unconsciously. into a tyrant and a . scalding in passing it: if after passing there is an unsatisfied feeling, as if it must at once be repeated, or if the ugine has a brick dust deposit or strong 0 or. When these symptoms are present,no time should be lost in removing the cause. - Delay may lead to gravel, catarrh of the bladder, inflammation. causing stoppage, and sometimes requiring the drawing of the urine with instruments, or may run into Bright’s Disease, the most dangerous stage of kidney trouble. Dr. Kilmer’s Swam -Root, the great discovery of the emi ent kidney and bladder specialist, is a positive remedy for such diseases. Its reputation is world-wide and it is so easy to get at any drugstore that no one need suffer any length of time for want of it. However, if you prefer to first test its wonderful merits, mention, THE N ORWALK GAZETTE and write to Dr. Kilmer & 00., Binghamton, N.
