Sunday Fishing.

The bill before the legislature, pro- hibiting Sunday fishing, has been de- feated This is bad. It is bad for Sun day, bad for the fish, and bad for the fishermen. Though it might be boot less and thankless task to endeavor to convince the offender of this last fact. it is nevertheless true. Sabbath breaking is the first and easy step toward promis- cuous lsw-breaking; and we do not hesi- tate to say that the mechanic or laborer, when he properly observes God s day, ,- no matter what actuates him thereto,- feels better, does better, and is better, all the week, than when he desecrates tho day pleasureing. Granting every one the legal and moral right to do his own pleasure, on the Sabbath, how long would it be before these untrammelled wills came into contact and conflict, and the day therefore become one of discord and violence. instead of peace and rest? We think every intelligent man under stands and comedies the moral obligation imposed, whether or not he remains true to it. Gall it superstition, or what ever you please, it meets vital need oi human nature that cannot be a.gued out of sight or out of mind. Sabbath observers are always good citizens; Sab bath breakers rarely are. Shore Line Times.

Did it ever occur to you that the judi- cious use of good paint on the outside of a honse can materially increase the value of the building? Most of the increase is in fancy, of conrse-just in the appear ance of the house-tbats all But what n difference one or two coats of paint can make to be sure! Perhaps you have property you want to sell or rent and are thinking of painting it You wonld like it to be good and permanent job, hut you don't want to spend any more money than you can help. Here is where the Chiffon Paints prove themselves the most economical, as they are also the most enduring and weather-defying
 They are we'll ground in pure linseed oil and turpentine drier, have good solid body, and will be found to do as much work as twice the quantity of some paints, and do it better, too. Get estimates on one coat, two coats, and three coats of Chiffon Paint.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
That Petition.


 Editor of Neaos
 Is it morality or immortality that we wish to sustain in Cornwall?
 Within few days petition has been circulated praying the Board of Pardons to release man from state prison, who last autumn was convicted before Judge Fenn and twelve disinterested iurymen, of crime against the sanctity of the marriage relation. The sentence was light one, for only three years, so that we feel justified in asking: Why do prominent men of Sharon, Salisbury and Canaan sign petition which, if it has any effect, will make that trial, con- viction and sentence a mere farce
 It is only fair to suppose that these men from neighboring towns are honest men. If so they must have reasons which appear to them valid. for signing this petition. They must either consid- CT unchastity venial fault, or else they believe him innocent. It cannot be that men of influence in Puritan New Eng land would condone a crime which tends to destroy the safeguards which the state has placed around the family relation. Then they believe him inno- cent These men did not hear the tes- timony at the trial. They know prac- tically nothing of the case. Do they think the witnesses for the prosecution perjured themselves? ? Do they believe the jury were untrue to their oath, and that an innocent man is suffering an un. just penalty
 This petition seems strong testimo- ny to the kindness of heart of the men of North Western Litchfield county, but offers pathetic indication that the rug ged common-sense, and regard for jus tice, which characterized New England men of a quarter of a century ago, are gone.
