It is now Governor Lounsbury.
Mayor Glover did well in casting the
decisive vote that elected “Mart” Kel-
logg street commissiOner.
The length to which some people
will go to get their names into prom-
inence passeth all understanding.
Bank cashier suicides are becoming
numerous and the wise editor keeps a
standing head ready for emergency.
Did you read all the good suggestions
offered by the new mayors?
The man who gets something for
nothing is generally the greatest fault-
finder.
Are you still holding on to those
good resolutions?
‘ Gossippers and scandalmongers are
becoming entirely too numerous in this
locality.
By the inauguration of Governor
George E. Lounsbury at Harthrd to-
day, old'Fairtield county demonstrates
her ability to furnish men capable of
filling any office in the gift of the peo-
ple.
If the good roads suggestions made
by Mayors Glover and Coburn are fol-
lowed out Norwalk will have the'bcst
roads of any town in the state.
The grip is no respecter of persons.
It will even invade a printing office
and single out the “intelligent com-
positor. 5’

Thef’Appetite of a Goat
Is envied by all poor dyspeptic:
l whose Stomach and Liver are out of
order. All such should know that Dr
King’s New Life Pills. the wonderful
Stomach and Liver Remedy, gives a
splendid appetite, sound digestion and
a regular bodily habit that insures
perfect health and great energy. Only

THE OTHER FELLOWS.
The man who resents being 'watehed
is invariably the man who ought to be
watched, and watched hard.-—Derby
ii News.
If President McKinley feels at all as
if he had Congress on his hands, he is
saying nothing about it and acting as
though he rather enjoyed it.—-New Ha-
ven Palladium.
The new year of 1899 may not be
happy for the United States, but it
promises to be busy. and what Mr.
Conkling used to ctil ”halycon and
vociferous. ”—VVateI-bury American.
The economists and the historians
didn’t havea word to say about the
war. They were too busily engaged in
delving into the past to think of the
present.—-\nsonia Sentinel.
The village of Yale, Mich, isn’t
much like the university from which it
gets its name. The local paper says
that there isn’t a man in the place who
smokes cigarettes.—.\leriden Journal.
a Mrs. Frye says "there are hundreds
l of dukes and duchesses in Paris whom
. one would not consider it an honor to
know.” Titled immorality is not fas-
cinating to the American lady of
Maine—Norwich Bulletin.
The Norwalk Baptists have extended
a “call” to a young clergyman bearing
the illustrious name of T. De Witt
Talmadge Van Doren. A minister
with such an array of initial letters
ought to make a capital preacher.—~New
Haven News.
They are still busy finding Sunday
golfers down in Connecticut, but, as
the fines do not exceed a couple of dol-
lars for each offence, it looks as if
wickedness would continue to flourish
regardless of the expense.——Boston Her-
ald. __
William J. Bryan’s slack Wire per-
formince is positively announced for
1900. One end of the wire will be at-
tached to free silver and the other end
to anti-expansion. Positively no post-
ponement on account of the weather.—~
Waterbury Republican.
Many an aspirant for some lucrative
position in the service of New York
State is still meandering through life
in a solitary and hungry way. Every
mother’s son of them thinks that Gov-
ernor-elect Roosevelt is awfull slow in
filling up that slate—New Haven Reg-
‘ister.
It does not seem possible that the
New York, New Haven and Hartford
railroad should have made such gigan-
tic advance in fifty years. But the fact
is that its most wonderful and perma-
nent prosperity has been under the
present management.——New London
Telegraph.
The fining of Sunday golf players in
Connecticut the sum of $2 apiece leads
somebody outside to suggest that this
would be an easy way to raise money
for public purposes and relieve tax
payers, just as in some places where
prohibition prevails illicit liquor sel-
lers are held up and plucked oncea
month or six times a year.—Waterbury
American. '
V
Millions Given Away.
It is certainly gratifying to the pub-
lic to know that one concern in the
land who are not afraid to be generous
to the needy and suffering. The pro-
prietors of Dr. King’s N cw Discovery
for Consumption, Coughs and Colds,
have given away over ten million trial
bottles of this great medicine; and
have the satisfaction of knowing it has
absolutely cured thousands of hopeless
cases. Asthma. Bronchitis. Hoarse-
ness, and all diseases of the throat,
Chest and Lungs are surely cured by it.
Call on Druggist, John A. Riggs, 11
Main street, and get a free trial bottle.
Regular size 500. and $1. Every bottle
uarantecd, or price refunded.
His Due Condition.
As an artist Jack Gamble is consid~
ered as independent as ,he is success-
ful, says the San Francisco News Let-
ter. He possesses an unlimited quan-
tity of candor, upon the expression of
which he places no restraint... He is
much liked. "notwithstanding, and was
not long ago offered a commission to
paint the portrait of a wealthy liquor
dealer. whose features are more re-
markable. for their bloom than for
their refinement. Jack critically
scanned the broad features of his pro-
posed subject. '
“Upon one condition will I paint
you!” he declared, dramatically.
“I’V'h'a-tl" gasped the amazed Croe-
sus, speechless at the effrontery of
this poverty stricken artist.
“Yes,” pursued Gamble, with easy
grace. “Upon condition that I shall
be allowed to put in a little intelli-
gence.” . ~
And the funny part of it was that
Jack got the commission.
Story ofa. Waiter.
This is the story of a man who went
into a store to buy a nickle spool of
thread—he wanted nothing more. The
doorman took him by the 'al‘lll and di-‘
rected him aright to where a blonde
presided from morning until night.
He bought the thread and settled with
El. sort of reckless dash and the blonde
girl lifted up her voice and loudly
called for “Cash.” Then came a lit-
tle short-haired girl, with beads about
oer neck, who took the thread to an.
other clerk, who entered up the check;
she then transferred it to a boy in
uniform and cap, who took it to the
basement for.“ another clerk to wrap.
I‘wo .hours later it came back only to
be rejected by the blonde girl, just be-
cause it wasn’t marked “IDSpected.”
Then from another hour it went from
place to place till at last the thread
Ind purchaser were brought face to
face. Grabbing it, he hurried homr,
and said unto his wfie: “Had I tried
;0 spend a drilar they’d have kept me
there for life.”—-Chicago News.
WHAT SHALL WE DO.
A serious and dangct ous disease pre-
vails in this country. dangerous be-
cause so deceptive. It comes on so
slowly yet surely that it is often firmly
seated before we are aware of it.
The name of this disease which may
be divided Into three distinct stages is,
First, Kidney trouble, indicated by
pain in the back, rheumatism, lumba-
gn. frequent desire to urinate. often
with a burning sensation, the flow of
urine being copious or scant with
strong odor.
It allowed to advance. this reaches
the Second stage, or Bladder trouble,
with heavy pain in the abdomen low
down between the navel and the water
passage. increasing desire to urinate,
with scalding sensation in passing, -
small quantities beingr passed with dif-
ficulty, sometimes necessary to draw it
with instruments. If uric acid orgravel
has formed, it will prove dangerous if
neglected.
The third stage is Bright’s Disease.
There is comfort in knowing that
Dr. Kilmer, the great kidney and blad-
der specialist. has discovered a Remedy
famous for its marvelous cures of the
mOst distressing cases and known as
Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Boot.'.
It is sold by all d: uggists.
As a proof of the wonderful virtues of
this great discovery. Swamp-Root. a
sample bottle and book of valuable in—
formation will be sent absolutely'free
