TRoUT-A writer makes suggestion to
the Hartford CoWdnt, that the farmers would
do an excellent thing If they would stock the
little brooks on their farms with trout Most
of our streams have few trout in them and
they are growing fewer every year. Those
few have each an average OF a dozen fishermen
after each one during the season and those
that escape tho hook are liable to fall into the
net. The farmers might easily stock the heads
of the brooks with thousands Of trout every
year. J heir propagation is very easy, and the
supply Of this delicate fish might be album
dant. In addition to this, let them prosecute
every man who attempts to use net in the
brooks, and in year or two all our little
streams would again abound in speckled trout.
We urge this not merely in the interest OF
sportsman, but the farmers might thus supply
themselves with a delicious article of food du-
ring the season when fresh meat Is most diff
fcalt to obtain, and when fish ia especially a
healthy article Of diet, The theory is good
one and we should like to see the experiment
tried

NECESSITY FOR 1T.

view to accommodate the river trade, has long
been felt. Many important towns are now with
out any telegraphic communication whatever and
the lines now established between other points
are, In most cases, disconnected, following cir
euitous routes, hundreds of miles out of a direct
course, causing yexatious and unnecessary delays
to business, by reason of numerous repetitions
and the frequent interruptions incident to long
lines. When the facts are borne in mind that the
liability of a telegraph line to damage from any
cause Is increased in the same proportion as its
length, and that the repetition of message dou-
bles the time necessary for its transmission the
great and very important advantages of a direct
route over the circuitous now in operation
can readily be seen.

4 GRAND EPOCH In mEDIcIKE

DR.. Maggiel is the founder of a new medical
system. The quantitarians whose vast internal
doses enfeebls the stomach and paralyze the bow
els and with whose external remedies the ulcerat-
ed and eruptive surfaces of the skin are deluged
in vain must give place to the man who restores
his health and appetite with from one to three
harmless pills, and cures the most virulent and
scrofulous disorders with from one to three bexes
of his matehiess salve. 1EE
DIR. Maggieps Pills and Salve have ushered in
O new medical era. No more nauseating avalan-
ches of drastic drugs need be poured down sick
peoples throats One of Maggiel's Pills rectifes
the disordered condition of the stomach and liver,
cleanses the head and restores the nerves in q
space of time short enough to be almost ciassed
as marvellous.
In fact Maggieis Bilious, Dyspeptic and Diarr-
hea Pills cure where all others fail. While for
Burns Scalds Chilblains, Cuts, and all abrassions
of the skin, Maggiel's Salve is infallible.

Proofs Of the Superior Quality

wALTHANG, MASS.

The American Watch Company, of Waltham,
Mass, respectfully submit that their Watches are
cheaper, more accurate less complex more dura-
Bile, and better adapted for general use, and more
easily kept in order and repaired than any other
watches in the market. They are simpler in
structure, and therefore stronger, and less likely
TO be injured than the ma orty of foreign watch
es, which are composed of from 125 to 500 pieces,
while in an oldEnglish watch there are more thap
7Oa parts How they under the hardest trial
watches can have, is shown by the following let

years by our engiuemcn, to whom we fnrnlsh
watches as part of our equipment There are
now some three hundred of them carried on our

time keepers. Indeed, have great satislactlon
in saying your watches give US less trouble, and
have worn and do wear much longer without re
pairs than any watches we have ever had in use
on this road. As you are aware, we formerly
trusted to those of English manufacture, OF ac-
knowledged good reputation; but as a class they
never keep time as correctly, nor have they done
as good service as yours.
