There is a Classof 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 l- as
much. Children may drink it with
great benefit. 15. cts. and 25 cts. per
ackage Try it. Ask for GR;A INO.

cooks will notepoil the broth at the

This is a good country. The treas—
ury received a contribution of three
thousand dollar notes from three sin-
ners who have repented. A man has
.truly repented when he is willing to

No war was concluded so quickly with
such destructive results as the Spanish-
American one. Yet there are many
fool writers in the magazines who are
trying to tell how it should have been
done—Norwich Record. ‘
We note in a New York funeral
notice that “relatives and friends and
Hell Gate pilots are invited to attend.”
Pilots‘of that sort are rather requir-
ed in New York, Chicago and Bridge-
port—Stamford Telegram.
The fighting in the Philippines
should bea reminder to the German
emperor that the pomp and ceremony
of camps in time of peace is not
necessaiy to the development of a
nation’s ability to furnish soldiers in
an emergency.—Washington Sta-r.
It may be cheap for Connecticut to
pay the members of th state expendi-
tures commission $2,500 to 'come before
the legislature and support the bills
by which they figure out that some-
thing like $400,000 a year can be saved.
That’s a pretty small commission for
so large a gain—Waterbury American.
Should that sick juror in the Guil-
ford murder trial die or reach that
state that he could not continue to
serve, it would seem to be quite a strong
home argument in favor of that bill in-
troduced in the present legislature by
a Meriden man calling for 'an extra,
thirteenth juror in all important trials.
"Meriden Journal.
The Filipinbs are naturally distrust-
ful of the promises of their foreign
rulers. It wasn’t long ago that the
Spanish government _ gave to them
solemn promises of reforms if they
would cease rebelling. The Filipinos
laid down their arms and every promise
of reform was violated. If they are
now skeptical of American promises it
is only because they judge all Western
'nations alike and have learned some-
thing by experience—Newark Adver-
tiser. , '
Thadollar banquet in New York is
not much to our liking. Since coming
(to the legislature we have had a ban-
lquet every midday with either a bot-
tle of beer or jorum of Cascade thrown
in, all for fiteen cents. Ours is not a
pride that apes humility, but. we be-
lieve in 3 Democracy that don’t have
to wear its coats or shoes in the house.

children have selected places for young
trees either in the school yards or
along the streets, have bought the

' Antitrust League Fornlea.
ST. LOUIS, April 10.—-The National
Antitrust league has been formed here.
It proposes to fight the combines by
boycotting all the goods which they
place on the market and by inducing
the consumers to use only the goods
manufactured by independent factories.
Headquarters have been established in
the Lincoln Trust building. -H. A.
Thompson is president and James Mc-
Clure treasurer.~ The league claims a
city membership of 10,000, and a coun-
try membership of 35,000 and hopes to
destroy all trusts in a few years.
Meeting of Press CIubs.
BALTIMORE, April 10.—The ninth
annual convention of the International

The Journalists’ club of this city will be
the host of the delegates, who will num-

Millions Given Away.
It is certainly gratifying to the pub-
lie 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 New 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
guaranteed, or price refunded.
