SSSSSS SSSSSSSSSSSNS l Springfield, September, 1892. We wish to go on record as having made the lowest prices ever quoted on blankets in the history of Western New En- gland.
 From now till September 14th will sell every blanket in our wholesale and retail stocks at a price to cause many a good and conservative woman to hold up her hands in sur- prise.
 The motive of the sale is to force people into buying now, instead of October. Besides we want to extend our blank ct trade to every town in Western New England. Our blanket business isn't half big enough. It is just as easy to handle twice as much. There's a way to get it: to handle it we'll. There's way to get it with a jerk: to sell without profit. Frankly, that's exact ly what we shall do from now till September 14th. A week is enough of this sort of advertising; so you had better be quick to respond.
 Right aisle.
 News of a most surprising sort at the beginning of the season. India twill serge, yard-and-a-quarter wide, for 58 cents a yard! French.
 This is the worst indication we ever encountered in dry goods. Perhaps it is a bad lookout for the manufacturing industries of our country to sell French cloths SO. We are powerless to prevent it. We catch what comes, and hand over to you. The mark ct is all the better for getting these great blocks of goods out of it quickly. You are the better. We are the better So far as our part affects the country nobody is hurt. That's Ione comfort.
 The cloths are limited ir quantity, and substantially SC as to color. There are only 5000 yards and just eighteer colors. Six yards will make a dress.
 Left aisle.

 After we have passed away, and our bodies lain beside loved ones gone before, some deed or act performed by us during our lives will be remembered. We think that the name of Warren. Kibbe, who died Aug. 3Oth at the ripe oldIage of 88 years, 5 upon these growing naples that he has set out by the roadside for more than half mile we shall remember with pride. And then again there are those who will remember him as the genial landlord of Kibbes tavern of years ago. No winter passed without one or more sleighing par ties making this their stopping place. MT. Kibbe was born in Somers, and has always resided here, and held many town offices, being at one time postmaster. Of him one thing can be said that is some- what unusual, and that is that until after he had passed his 8Sth birthday he never had doctor for himself.

 Last Friday, as Mrs. Chas. Baker was driving toward Stafford, the horse, which Mrs. Baker had never driven but once before, started to run down the hill near Chas. Brooks house. Fearing she might lose control of him, she refined him up the hill leading to the Sugar Hill school house. In turning the wagon was upset and Mrs. Baker was thrown to the ground with great violence. Her daugh- ter, Miss Grace, who was with her, was thrown over her. The horse freed him. self from the carriage and ran home In falling Mrs. Baker struck her head against sharp stone, making deep gash on her forehead above the left temple. Dr. W. N. Simmons, who was immediately sent for, found it necessary to take four stitch es in her face. There was also bad cut in her hip. Miss Grace was not injured beyond 8 slight bruise. Mrs. Baker is doing as we'll as could be expected under the circumstances. FLORA.
