Doings of Day In the Valley Re low
 This City.
 NAUGATUCK, June 17.-It is ex- pected that grading will commence in a short time on the extension on Meadow street. Three hundred dollars was voted by the town to be applied to this some year or more since. The old school buildings will have to remain on the green for another year, and probably very little will be done on the hill back of the new school building this season. The owners of property on the brow of the hill stand in their own light when they do not continue the street across the hill at the edge of school property, which when terraced would give them some of the most valuable lots in town. We have the assurance of a gentleman of large means that if that street was extended, the heights would be made one of the finest in the state.
 Out of town parties have about com pleted the new fixtures at Church's market.

Kelly Says:

What the eye don't see the heart never grieves for. If friend Hewitt could see the dispatch that he has offered $50 to learn the secrets between KELLY and the mill and see the low price which KELLY has bought a whole trainload, consisting of 16 cars or 2,OOO barrels of the leading brands of flour, I think it would be enough to make the great grocer grow gray over night, and this would leave Hewitt's grocery store out of the fashion, for it is 8 we'll known fact that every business place from Dexters Corner to Holmes & Par sons Banking has Red headed Mascot.
 In regard to KELLY'S Veracity when he hangs up his fishing rod and takes off his hip boots he is at par with the rest of the world, and you could see the proof of that to-day, it seems that everyone who wanted to buy flour from Prospect to Woodbury, and from Wolcott to Oxford, came and ordered flour, to-day ''the proof of the pudding is in the eating. $4.95 will buy any of the following brands of flour if you will give my man an empty barrel: Niagara Falls, Pillsbury's .aBest, Jones' & Wash burn, Crosby company.
