is building numerous new buildings in
town—on paper—might erect a new
hotel and a soldiers’ monument and

latest victim to read his own obituary
through the enterprise of a local jour-

The workers at the last. town caucus
continue to receive their reward by
being fed at the town crib.
There are a. few unimportant people
in town who have not had the grip.
An elaborate pamphlet filled with
press extracts favoring Samuel Fes-
senden for Senator, is being circulated.
Its front page contains a portrait of
the Stamford statesman, with the
legend, “The man of the Hour.”
Eastward the march of the politician
will take its way to-morrow.
When ex-oepresentative VVOrtman
of Bethel finishes his fight against
County Commissioner Miller he will
be in the same condition as the boy
who tickled the mule. Not so good
loOking but know more.
Keep your appendix says Dr. Hutton
in the Medical Record. Thanks doctor
if we can.
Weather conditions promise to favor
the spread of grip and pneumonia.
Sudden and extreme changes of tem-
perature are a menace alike to the
strong and the weak, especially when
accompanied by rain, snow and sleet.
The first duty of everyone is to avoid
catching cold. Avoid draughts. Avoid
exposure. Keep your feet warm, your
body warm, and your chest protected.
Watch your food and your digestion.
Al ways consult common sense.
With two or three months Of \Vinter
still to be faced, and with grip almost
everywhere epidemic, the need of un-
usual care in the protection Of health
cannot be too strongly insisted on.

The leaders of the Democratic party
seem to be'much more anxious to find
a campaign issue to serve the country.

While there’s an open door in the
Philippines it would be well for
Aguinaldo to utilize it and come in
without further trouble.——Meriden

The old family physician is the best
thing for the grip and there is little
danger of his being called too early——
Norwich Bulletin.
Many engagements to go to New
York on January 18 are now being
made by men. Of course there is no
connection between these and the
French ball which occurs that night.—
Ansonia Sentinel.
The Yale divinity student who was
found to have purloined so many books
recently, has taken among othervolumns
a copy of Dr. Tucker’s “ Making and
Unmsking of the Preacher.” He
evidently failed to read it carefully.—
Hartford Post. '
The Havana editor who comes out
now and tries to create a sensation by
declaring that the Maine was blown up
by Spaniards is rather late. Every-
body in this country has been satisfied
on that score almost from the first.—
New Haven News.
Several big damage suits have been
instituted in CouneCticut lately by hus-
bands who assert that their wives” sf-
fections have been alienated. What is
wanted is the man who will consider
his wife’s afi'ections to be worth 810,-
00001- so while he still has them.—
Derby News. .
If William, McKinley can have his
way there will be no. ”crushing ” of
rebelsvin either Cubs or the Philip-
pines. Sensible natives will be concil-
iated, and law-breakers arrested and
punished. But the“ military power will
wage no war save in self defense.—
Scranton Tribune.
Lieutentant Colonel John H. Wade
of General Frost’s stafi‘, and of the
Hubbell 6t Wade company, is the
father of three sons, the youngest of
whom was born the day after New
Year’s. The gallant colonel seems to
be doing his part toward providing
future recruits for Uncle Sam’s army.
—-Bridgeport Telegram.
The sooner the general assembly
makes up its mind to get down to busi-
ness the better. There is every indica-
tion ofa business like session and every
reason to hope for a reasonably. short
one, as well as one that will be a credit
to the state in the laws it makes; the
laws it unmakes, and the laws it does
not make—Hartford Post.
The Waterbury American says that
it is immodest for Senator“ Hawley’s
friends to assume that the state would
lose much of anything by a change
from Hawley to’Russell. It would lose
still less, in our humble opinion, by a
change from Hawley to Hill, supposing
that General Hawley finds it impossible
to secure a reelection.——Torrington~
Register. . '
Reapportionment of Senatorial dis-
tricts, as advocated by the governor,
will not quiet the agitation for repre-
sentation reform. If made, it would be
merely another gerrymander, but the
main defect is that, even if fairly car-
ried into efi’ect, Such reapportionment
would reverse the proper order and
make the upper branch the popular
body or the representative of popula-
tion—Bridgeport Farmer.

THE KIDNEY COMPLEXION
I
The pale, sallow, sunken-checked,
distressed-looking people you so often
meet are alfiicted 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-
evs.
Usually the suti‘erer 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. When
writing kindly mention that you read
this liberal offer in THE NORWALK
,GAZETTE.
Catching Smelts.
Down in Maine in catching smelts
in winter the fishermen build shanties
on the ice over good fishing grounds
and cut a hole through the ice and
make a trap door in the floor of the
shanty to fish through. The shanty is
built upon timbers laid on the ice and
the first thing the fishermen do when
they get the building up is to pour wa-
ter over these timbers, so as to freeze
them down to the ice; otherwise when
a wind sprang up it might blow the
shanty along on the ice on these tim-
bers, which would thuspractically be-
come a sort of sled on runners.
They have a stove in the shanty for
greater comfort, and when they are.
not fishing they close the trap door
and thus have an unbroken floor. Each
man uses two lines at. fiShing. and as
fast as he hauls up the fish he puts
them in a box, the boxes being made
of various sizes, each containing a
specified number of pounds of fish.
When he has a box packed full he sets
it out on the ice and pours water in
it. The fish are frozen solid in the
boxes, and in this cohdltioln are ship-
‘w‘ to market. ______ ._.
England has determined thht her
naval armament must be kept at least
twice as strong as that of any other
Power, and wisely so, since England
has more than twice the need of any
other Power for means of oflence and
defence in connection with her distant
colonies and her vast maritime inter-
este; but she is not going to make the
mistake attributed to our naval au-
thonitles and build her new ships in-
terior in important respects to the old
ones. And it we are going to keep
control of distant islands for an in-
definite time, with an excellent pros-
pect of having to do more or less fight-
ing for and about them, we shall! want
the best ships that can «be built. In
rapt, we always want tnst kind, it we
want any, and we cannot the satisfied
iwith anything less.
