INDIGNANT MERCHANTS.

An Alleged Reformer Destroys Many
 Dollars Worth of Advertising.
 A week or ten days ago the announce ment was made, through the medium of the press, that the ladies of the asthetic town of Naugatuck would refuse to trade with Waterbury merchants who advertised their wares by painting upon fences, trees and stones along the road to the Rubber town. Yesterday it was learned that the movement had taken definite shape and that somebody armed with brush and pail of muddy look ing paint had obliterated about two hundred advertisements of the local merchants. The sufferers by the outrage are justly indignant and will make an effort to detect and punish the reform artist. The statute bearing upon the matter reads as follows: Vi.
 Section 1490: Every person who shall willfully destroy, or deface, any adver- tisement, hand bill, poster, or notice, upon any private billboard, shall be fined not more than seven dollars, or imprisoned not more than thirty days or both.
 Attorney O'Neil is of opinion that defacing advertisements painted upon rocks or fences along the public high way is no crime.

handkerchief? 1t is disgusting, sir!
Permit me 10 lick of that little spot

truth Miss J. Is homely enough, but
sensible. "Shall I send the carriage

Of forty-fve degrees.
But let poor Jones fall and Mes.

wants to lick no more spots from

her own books to school and Mrs.

and away runs Mes.
To shake with laughter ere the jest he

To pour, at will, the counterfeited tears
And as his patron hints tits cold or hot,
To shake in dog-days, in December
