Are you still writing it ’98? The weather clerk seems to have a grudge against street commissioner Kellogg. Attorneys Hurlbutt & Gregory are said to have a grape vine twist on complainant Hawxhurst. New Haven old maids are said to be counting the days to 1900, the next leap year. ’ King of the green good's men McNally'has not yet arrived in Bridge- port. Can it be possible that that city is too wicked for ,“Jimmy?” Since going to Europe Detective Cronan of Bridgeport is said to drop his h’s. Another snow storm and our highway department is liable to go into the hands of a receiver. As soon as the senatorial candidates ascertain just how many votes are needed, the legislative shopping will begin in earnest. The game of corporation squeezing will soon be in full blast at Hartford. The city council might heal the feel- ings of the recently defeated candidates by making them inspectors of pure beef. It is feared that the large hail stones that fell early yesterday morning will discourage the hens and hurt the egg industry. A man's courage may be determined by the way he talks back to his mother- in—law. _ "Judge Hamersley’s decision in the electric light appeal seems to have dealt City Attorney Light a solar plexus blow. Old Sleuth died just in time to escape the Adams’ murder mystery. If an internal revenue tax had been levied on bread would the baker stick on the stamp with the same avidity he does the Union label ? The microbe crop of grip should be largely augmented by yesterday’s sleet storm. MW Try Grain-0! Try Grain-0! Ask your Grocer to-day to show you a package of GRAIN-O, the new food drink that takes the place of coifee. The children may drink it without 1n- jury as well as the adult. All who try it, like it.

It was a Yankee selling liquor with out a license that placed three skunks about the barrels in his tap room and drew the liquor through pipes.

" Welcome, Governor Lounsbury, to the executive chair, with New Year’s greeting and good wishes for a pleas- ant administration.

'Superintendent'G. W. Beach of the Naugatuck division, as well as the su- perintendents of the other divisions of the Consolidated road, has been or- dered. to provide sufficient seating capacity for all passengers so that none will be compelled to stand, under any consideration. This order will certain- ly meet with the hearty approval of the traveling public.—Winsted Citi— zen. . The choice of Daniel M. Morgan for president of the Democratic Associa- tion was a graceful tribute to a man who has always been a Democrat, and who is ever ready to bear any part that his constituents may demand. Presi- dent Steward retires from the office with an excellent record. He did much to spread a conciliatory sentiment through the Democratic party in the city—Bridgeport Post. It is not necessary now in traveling on the Consolidated railroad for one passenger to ask another, “Is this seat engaged ‘9” The conductor and brake~ man have orders, to find a seat for every passenger, and to exercise “firm- ness and diplomacy” in carrying out the rule. Each seat, says the general superintendent, is intended for two persons and noone passenger will hereafter be allowed to occupy the whole of it. Sometimes a passenger appropriates and occupies two seats. It is in cases of that kind that “diplo- maey" will probably have to be re- sorted to, for arguing with a hog of that kind is a waste of breath—Bridge— port Telegram. >«oo->—- The Homeliesi Man in Norwalk, As well as the handsomest, and others are invited to call on any druggist and get free a trial bottle of Kemp’s Bal- sam for the Throat and Lungs, a reme~ ody that is guaranteed to cure and re- lieve all Chronic and Acute Coughs, Asthma, Bronchitis and Consumption PriceZéc. and 50c. ————“o-o Hawaii paid her obligation to Japan, and retired with balanced accounts. The life of the island republic was not very long, but it Was distinctly busi- nesslike and honorable. An emigrant from the blue grass region to the Klondike gold fields has written home that a man can live bet- ter and save money by working for $1 a day in old Kentucky than he can by digging for the precious metail in Alaska. ‘ Thanks to persistent scientific ex- periments, the odorless onion is now a reality.

The odor- less onion is fully entitled :to recogni- tion as a civilized institution. WHAT SHALL WE no A serious and dangerous 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 1nto three distinct stages is, First, Kidney trouble, indicated by pain in the back. rheumatism, lumba- go, frequent desire to urinate. often with a burning sensation. the flow of urine being copious or scant with strong odor. If 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 being passed with dif- ficulty, sometimes necessary to draw it with instruments. If uric acid or gravel 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 druggists. 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 by mail on application to Dr. Kilmer 3t 00., Binghampton, N.
