Folks who calculate to use ice next summer begin to look little glum. Lake Waramaug is not yielding very heavy crop of that cold fruit at present, acres of the northern extremi- ty being open awaiting the icy fingers of Jack Frost. If this state of weather continues the claret punch trade might as well go under next summer. H. O.. Averill has recently caused an ice house to bo built for himself, but it now looks likely to be an improbable in- vestment. Meanwhile the ice upon the lower end of the lake is about four inches thick and makes fine skating rink for those who pos sess dexterity enough to escape the holes the fisherman have cut, and thro' which good many pickerel are hauled from the chilly depths below, nearly every day.

Mass; Miss Hattie Cochrane, Miss Jes- sic Hart, of this place; and also Miss Alice Dakin, MT. E. A. Gillette and J. W. Ford, of Falls Village. We have good reason to be proud of our band; it handles difficult music with ease, keeping perfect time, and received great condensation from competent judges. It is under the leadership of MT. Will. North whose musical talent is widely known and ap- preciated. We predict an enviable career for Miss Harding, the cornetist, girl of thirteen years Her assistance at concerts is required for nearly every night in the week. The pi- ano duet by Miss M. J. Hart and Jessie Hart seemed to be appreciated by the audience. Miss Alice Dakin was repeatedly encored, and her distinct pronunciation gives added pleas n.e to the listener. The success of the enter tainment was greatly due to the assistance of the pianist, Miss M. J. Hart O..

Tea Table Talk
THE SAFETY VALVE.

THE SAFETY VALVE.
 The safety valve of public opinion is said to be the suffrages. It IS true that kingdoms have been disrupted because of it's absence, but limited monarchies have withstood many assaults, internal as we'll as external, A lim- ited suffrage only was given to obtain safety. Moderation in this right is as excellent, per- haps as in other things. One cannot however use too much of Arthur's Elixir of Sulphur. Itcures diphtheria, consumption, coughs, bron- chitis and all throat and lung diseases Ask your druggist for it. It costs only $1.
 HEATING CITY.
 What shall we have next? Gas, water, electricity to order the same as one draws mo- lasses from a cask and now steam at our very doors! Why, hot chops for dinner in the same manner? Let the Napoleon cabinet come by the same conduct, and do not forget a supply of Arthurs Elixir of Sulphur It cures consumption, bronchitis, dlphtheria, coughs, colds and all diseases of the throat and lungs. It can be had of druggists for $1 bottle.
 OLIVE iN INDIA.
 When Lord Give was boy, history states, he climbed to the top of the steeple of the village church and sat there unembarrassed by that attitude. Perhaps it was this inborn rash ness that made him the ruler of India and at first the idol of the English heart. But Ar thurs Elixir of Sulphur is calculated to do more for mankind. It cures consumption, bronchitis, diphtheria and all throat and lung diseases. Druggists have it at $1 bottle.
 MoNTAGUE's PHILOSOPHY.
 It was the great Montague who said that philosophy, taught man how to die. He feared the monster so little that he rose just before his demise aud with his own hand dis tributed his estate so that there should be no quarrel after his death. There is no quarrel ling over the fact that Arthur's Elixir of Sul- phur is the best remedy for consumption, bron- chitis diphtheria, coughs, colds and all dis eases of the throat and lungs. It can be bought of druggists for $1 bottle.
