THE LIFE IN A GLASS.
1t Does Not Seem to be Very Much, Hut 1t Is often Enough to be the Repfnufn~ of Death.


 Beginning of Death.
 Did you ever hold a glass of drinking water up to the light and notice how completely filled it
 was with little particles of matter? It looked per-
 fectly clear and pure when you poured it out but yet it was reeking with animal or vegetable mat ter. Do you imagine it can be healthys Do you
 wonder why, in a little while, your mouth tastes
 bad, your appetite is poor and you feel general
 disgust with the worldg
 But if water is so impure what shall we dos Boil ite Mo- that may kill the germs, but does not re- move them A far better way is to use pure
 whisky with it. The best physicians in America unhesitatingly declare this now, but-and bear this most carefully in mind-it must be pure
 whiskey, for impure whiskey is worse than i'm pure water.
 Doctors chemists scientists and professors are now fully agreed that no whiskey used in America to-day is so chemically pure or free from fusel oil as Duffy's Pure Malt. It has successfully withstood the enmity of all other whiskies, the prejudice of weak minded and the bigotry of narrow minded people. Why? Because it has
 produced results restored health, prolonged life, awakened the tagging faculties and counteracted the evil effects of poisonous water Indeed 1t is a pure medicinal whiskey. Do not, however, all low any unscrupulous dealer to impose upon you by declaring he has some connection Of his own that is siiust as good" or some bottled whiszey that is smuch better" It is the very popularity of Duffys Pure Malt that has caused these un- worthy decoctions to come into the market.

 ssJACK THE WINDOW CUTTERo Slashes About East Bridgeport Last
 Night - Several AstOnished StOre-
 keepers Find Neatly Cut Holes In
 Their Window Panes.
 The Bridgeport Standard of Saturday says: Although Bridgeport has no "Jaek the Ripper" nor "Jack the Ink Singer" she certainly has, from the appearances of several of the windows in East Bridgeport this morning, what might be termed ''Jack the Window Cutter" During last night some one who was either crazy or drunk made a tour of several stores and cut out part of the windows. The work was evi- dently done with glass cutter of some sort The first window that was found mutilated this morning was in Dundon's shoe shop on the railroad bridge. The next one was the Italian fruit store on the east end of the same bridge The window was cut in such & way that the intruder could help himself to any amount of choice fruit, which he probably did, as the proprietor claims that a large number of his best Bartlett pears are missing. On leaving this place the owner of the glass-cutter travelled around to barber shop near the center bridge, where he cut a window just in front of lot of canes. He might have secured nice walking stick to aid him in his travels had not the barber's dog inter fered. The work was done in very clever manner and no doubt there were several other places which have suffered likewise.
 It might be that this "Jack the Window Cutter" is related to "Jack the Peeper," who it is reported is in town at present Quite recently young lady who resides on | Noble avenue was followed by a man who, ! when she had reached a point near her ! home, grasped her arm. She cried loudly | for help and several men who were near
 rushed to her rescue. The man escaped
 however, but if he can be caught he
 will be severely dealt with. There are a
 number of instances known where this
 "Jack" has placed himself behind trees in
 badly lighted localities in order to spring out at girls and women who happen to be passing.
