The first business meeting of the new
City Council occurs to—night when the
hard work of the year will be com-
menced. The board has our sympathy.
It is now reported that the weather
clerk has been subsidized by Mr Grip.
N orwalk is well supplied with doct01 s
’but Mr. Grip is making them hustle to
keep up with the procession.
Mayor Bohannan of Stamford signed
his twenty-sixth veto On Saturday. As
a" chronic objector Mayor Bohannan
has no peer.
.A New York house painter commit-
ted suicide because he had been ac-
cused of bad workmanship. He should
have adopted the New Haven method
and drowned his sorrow by painting
the town red.
Tom Sharkey is not to visit New Ha-
ven. However, that city can content
itself with the small pox cases it has
on hand.
Representative Osborn is said to
have a bill in hand compelling the
placing of lamps on bicycles and motor
carriages. A similar bill was defeated
in 1897, but we believe that it should
,become a law. The riding of bicycles
at night without a light is not only
dangerous to the rider but dangerous
to pedestrians as well.
A Thousand Tongues
Could not express the rapture of
Annie E. Springer, of 1125 Howard St.,
Philadelphia, Pa., when she found that.
Dr. King’s New Discovery for Con-.
sumption had completely cured her of
a hacking cough that for many years
had made life a burden. All other
medicines and doctors could give her
no help, but she says of this Royal
Cure—"it soon removed the pain in
my chest and I can nowr sleep soundly,
something I can. scarcely remember
doing before. I feel like sounding its
praises throughout the Universe.” So
will everyone who tries Dr. King’s New
Discovery for any trouble of the Throat,
Chest or Lungs. Price 500 and $100.

THE, OlHIlTPELLOWS.
Some of the state papers criticise
the state prison directors for going
outside Connecticut to secure
a successor to Warden VVood-
bridge. Others endorse the step,
believing it tc be a wise one. We
think the directors knew what they
were about—Bridgeport Telegram.
Some modern altruists insure their
lives and then proceed to commit sui-
cide by working I...t:lLl:ClV€S to death.
—Troy Standard.
Don’t forget, members of the legisla—
ture, that only about one bill of every
five becomes a law. And this is at
least three times as many as ought
to get on the statute books ——St. Paul
Globe.
Mr. 'lobcrt, of Utah, may be, ex-
pected to put up a plucky iiight. A
man who has held his own with three
mothers-in-law at one time is not to be
frightened by a little thing like a
scrimmage in congress.»-—-.\leriden Jour-
nal.
In four hours recently a Paris court
granted 294 divorces, a little over a
divorce a minute. All the parties re-
ceived state assistance in' their cases
so that their divorce cost them nothing.
That beats the Connecticut courts.—
Hartford Post.
The Hon. Samuel Fessenden is still
a Republican and one of the most ' dis-
tinguished citizens of Connecticut. He
has thousands of friends .in the state
who k now g‘Our Sam”. as a whole-
sounded friend and one of the leading
Republicans 01’ the eouutryn-lllm-iden
Record.
The authority to declare principles
for the ,Democratic party is vested
only in a national convention. The
principles declared by the Chicago
convention will stand as those of the
Democratic party until the national
convention of 1900 acts.—-VVaterburyi
De mocrat.
Among those present at a recent so-
cial gathering in Louisville were “Miss
Sunshine Parsons, Starret, Meade,
Goldie Robinson and Sunnie Sander-
son.” All that was necessary to con-
plete this bright and shining galaxy
was Editor Wetterson’s stareyed god;
dose of reform—Chicago News. '
Apropos of Bryan’s call on the dead
and sleeping Moses: “Awaken 0 an-
cient lawgiver; Awake! Break forth
from thine unmarked sepulcher!” the
Bridgeport Telegram thinks that if
Bryan would only pattern after Moses
and keep silent he would be doing the
country a greater serv1ce than he is by
trying to stir up the reposing ancient.
——Waterubry American. ’
Anti—expansion organs seems to have
failed entirely in their efforts to_ pic-
ture President McKinley as the stern
conqueror riding over the dead bodies
of the victims of greed for territory.
Even the most rabid’are now obliged
to admit that the policy of the ., ad min-
istration is humane and conciliatory—
Scranton Tribune. .
The Boston Globe states that Gen.
Hawley “was nominated as candidate
to succeed himself 1n the United States
senate, after the most bitterly waged
political contest in the history of the
nutmeg State.” It was a lively con-
test, but a search of the political his-
tory of Connecticut, and of the Repub'
lican party during the past forty years,
would bring instances of a great deal
more bitter feeling than has been
manifested in the contest just ended.—
Hartford Times. .
THE KIDNEY COMPLEXION
The pale, sallow, sunken-checked,
distressed-looking people you so often
meet are afflicted with “Kidney Com-
plexion.” ‘
Their kidneys are turning to a
parsnip color. So is their complexion.
They may also have indigestion, or
sufier from sleeplessness, rheumatism,
neuralgia, brain trouble, nervous ex-
haustion and sometimes the heart
acts badly.
The cause is weak, unhealthy kid-
neys.
Usually the sufferer 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 Rdot. 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 man]. When
writing kindly mention that you read

Children's Poor Teeth.
» A recent article in The American.
Kitchen Magazine gives as the opiu-
ion of a dentist that the poor teeth of
children is often due to lack of exer-
cise. Much of the modern food given
to children is in the form of soups,
pmees and mush made from cereals,
and not enough work is given to the
teeth in mastication to draw the blood
in large quantities to them. It doc-s
not, therefore, give up its strengthen-
ing qualities in suflicien't quantity to
make strong teeth. The dentist recom-
mended that things hard to chew be
given to the children.

There is a Class of People
Who are injured by the use of coffee.
Recently there has been placed in all
the grocery stores a new preparation
called GRAIN-O, made of pure. grains,
that takes the place of coffee. _The
most delicate stomach receives it with-
out distress, and but few can tell it
from coffee. It does not cost over 3; as
much. Children may drink it with
great benefit. 15 cts. and 25 cts. per
ackage Try it. Ask for GRAIN-(J.

Many people who . grow winter
sqtt'ashos complain that the fruit Will
not keep for any length of time after
it is removed from the vines to the
vegetable collar. The trouble may or-
(-asionally rest in the choice of varic-
ties, but this is not usually the case.
since the favorite late variety is still
the old reliable Hubbard. a variety
noted for its keeping qualities. Gen-
erally the fault rests with the man.

his “hardy” vegetables lie in the field
exposed to the frost long after they
should be stored. and when he removes

How to Kill Lice on Hogs.
Hogs will invariably take to the WT
for when given'an opportunity. espi-
cially when troubled with lice. If the
animals have no wallow, one should
be provided. This is easy to accom-
plish. Simply dig a hole and fill with
water and the hogs will do the rest.
When the wallow is formed pour over
its surface kerosene oil varying,r in
amount according to size of wallow.
The mud and water thus treated b:-
comes. sure death to the lice on the
hogs.
Measuring Bay.
The quality of hay varies so widely
that it is very difficult 'to get an accu-
rate measurement or a certain quanti-
ty. Itis generally believed, however.
that 400 cubic feet, taking it right
through, will make a ton. A mow, 24x
12:16 would, therefore. contain very
close 0°, 11.1-2 tons. - '
Puzzled by so Many Ways.
A certain man made a display of
dense ignorance the other day When
he went into a restaurant, and asked
the waiter if he had any eggs. “Yes.”
said the waiter, “we have.” “Well.
bring me some.” “How do you want
them cooked?” “Oh, any old way.”
“My dear man,” said the waiter. “that
order will hardly do. T’Ve have over
500 different ways of cooking eggs,
and you will be pleased to make a sug;
gestion or mention a choice.” .This
astonishing fact had the effect of par-
alyzing, the" customer’s tongue for a
while. and he finally recovered enough
to whisper in awe, “Scramble ’em.”
“Yes. sir,” replied ~the astute waiter,
still lingering. “which way?” “Oh.
any old way.” “Sir,” said the waiter
in a determined way, “I mastinsist you
will make a choiceethere are seven-
ty different ways of scrambling eggs
in this establishment.” “Well, then,
fry them for me.” “TVhi'ch way?
“7e have forty ways of frying eggs
here?” “All right.” said the customer
slowly as he reached for his hat and
arose, “you have one way here that
I can find myself. and that is straight
out of that door. Good-day.——Philadel-
