' THURSDAY, JANUARY 19, 1899. W The weather clerk is getting him- self disliked by the frequency of his prognostications. Editor Helmer was probably a trifle lame and took an early start. Every business man should join the Business Men’s Association. One can’t have'too much of a good a thing even hough it comes from Bridgeport. , Mayor Van ‘Wyck of New York says his watch cost $3,000 counting money he has paid pawnbrokers for loans and interest. His honor states that as a boy and a young man he often visited his “uncle” with his timepiece and pledge it for money he spent foolishly. It is to be hoped Mayor Van Wyck will redeem his election pledges as faithfully as he did the watch. Even a mail carrier’s life sometimes becomes spicy. According to Dairy Commissioner Noble, Connecticut has 140,000 cows with a total value of nearly $5,000,000. The Nutmeg state may not have much :honey but she is way up on milk. The collapse of that Denver platform may have been caused by the silver in Bryan’s pockets. The Wortman opposition to the re- turn of County Commissioner Miller will meet a regular free silver collapse. _ The return Of coal dealer Harris has nothing to do 'with the present cold Wave. From the latest returns it would ap- . pear as though Senator Hawley had defeated Daniel Nash Morgan. " ' Now let "Representative Osborn, of Net-walk, achieve a still higher degree Ioflfa'me by introducing a bill providing that all bicyclts shall have vestibules. - —~New Haven News. Perhaps he will if you will designate on which end to place them. ' ———-——<0.0>—————-— 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 now 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. ’l‘rial'bottles free at John A. Riggs’ drug store, 11 Main street; every bot- tle guaranteed. d.-. THE 0TH ER} FELLOWS. It is said the reason that there is no ice trust is because promoters always get a frost in trying to organize—An- sonia Sentinel. It is to be hoped that the war inves- tigators will probe into the affairs of some army contractors before they od- 'journ sine die—New Haven Union. _ An inventor claims to have discover- ed a plan for exterminating all dis- ease germs by sending a. strong cur- rent of electricity through the human body. This is an experiment which has often been tried with success in Sing Sing—N. Y. Herald. ' Don’t diScard your chest protector just yet. The present ethereal mildnoss may be all a bluff on the part of the weather cleric—New Haven News. Why doesn’t Bridgeport get up a world’s fair or something of the kind ? St. Louis is going to ask congress for an appropriation of $5,000,000 for an exhi- bition in 1903.—~Bridgeport Post. Spain is for contraction. As soon as the cortes is convened the Spanish gov- ernment will ask authority to sell the Ladrones, Carolines and Pelew islands in the Pacific. Who will bid ?—Hart- ford Post. ‘ . A perusal of the new list of commit. tee clerkships shows that the relatives of the Democratic senators have, as usual, been made to step one side for the relatives of the Republican senators. Thus is senatorial courtesy observed.— Derby News. 2 Poverty and dogs don’t always go to- gether. Ono of Jay Gould’- boys is . Street. the proud owner of 132 dogs—New Ha- ven Courier. 9 By consulting almost any comic pa- per, .Aguinaldo can become fully in formed as to the danger of dallying with a kerosene cam—Washington Star. In this moving, bustling, growing country we must look at things from a practical standpoint. We have made a treaty, and we must ratify it in the name of progress, intelligence and hu- manity.—Philadelphia Inquirer. Ought a woman who blinded her stepdaughter with acid," then smother— ed her and later fractured her hus- band’s skull with an axe, to be spared the electric chair because she is not a man? That is the question Gov. Roosevelt is called upon to answer in the case of Mrs. Place—VVatel-bury American. Gov. Roosevelt has expressed himself in favor of extending the 'right of women to vote, but he declines to com- mit himself in regard to the execution of women in the electric chair. haps herthinks that if the members of the gentler sex share in men’s privi- leges they should also share their pen~ alties.—-New York Herald. The divorce question will come up before a number of legislatures this winter, and an earnest effort will be made to reform some of the laws and make them more stringent. The move- ment in this direction has gained much headway, and especially in Indiana and North Dakota. In both cases re- form is urgently needed—Philadel- phia Press. The Kidney Cbmplexion. The pale, sallow, sunken-cheeked,dis- tressed-looking people you so often meet are afflicted with “Kidney Com- plexion. ” Their kidneys are turning to a pars— nip 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. Usually the sufferer from kidney dis- ease 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 medecinc or a doctor until they find themselves sick in bed. Dr. Kilmcr’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 dollar, or you may first prove for yourself the wonderful virtues of this great discov- ery, Swamp-Root, by sending your ad- dress to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton 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 liber- al Offer in THE EVENING GAZETTE. A ‘_ ‘VV 7 Seven Good Reasons. During a temperance camm'ign a lawyer, was discussing with no little show of learning the causes of the proposed temperance law. An old farmer who had been listening atten- tively shut his knife With 5. snap and said: “I don’t know nothin’ about the law but I’ve got seven gocd reasons for votin’ for it." , “What are they?” asked the lawyer. And the grim old farmer responded: “Four sons and three daughters.“— “rssbvtcrian Review. FOR SALE. OR SALE—Farm, 24 acres land, buildings, barn; good place. will be sold cheap. Enquire of J. T.
