WASHINGTON.

F. J. Hurlburt has probably the larg- est herd of swine in town, having over 10 porkers of varying sizes. In speaking of the old days, Mir Hurlburt said at one time he took in as high as so dressed hogs in a week, from the farmers, which he carried to New Haven. He is of the opinion that the farmers made quite as much in those days as they do now.

A JOLLY COON HUNT.

There was a jolly coon hunt, the other night. Did you hear about it? A party explained by Joe Stillson, and including MT Hine of New Milford, the painter, MT Logan and others, marched forth to the conquest. Logan was to carry the game. They tramped around the pin nacle, and MT Hinc lost his enthusiasm. He tramped so far, that at one point, where he came across heap of rocks, he declared he had discovered the Cana da line. One or two of the party came near being stuck in a swamp hole, up near Christian street. Two of the party also discovered a diamond rock. Those New Milford boys are great hunters, you know.

HE IS A BUSY MAN.

J. B. Stillson, the popular market mar, is a busy man these days. In addition to uperintending his large meat busi- ness, he is just now buying furs and skins of trappers and hunters in towns for 20 miles around. Mir Stillson buys is just now commenced and lasts till next April. Many boy, and some of their fathers too, make handsome thing at trapping, and they are glad to have buyers for their furs. The skins he buys are those of the mink, coon, fox, muskrat, etc., and this season he expects to handle as high as 5000 worth. MT StillsOn has been handling furs for three years and knows just how to select them. A fine mink skin brings a good price. One New York dealer advertises to pay as high as $200 for the pelt of a silver fox, but just the right animal doesn't turn up every day. A good story is told of the genial marketman and it ought to be repeated. He was down New Mil ford way, the other day, and was accost- ed by small boy for ride. Mir Still son granted his request, and asked the lad question or two. For little fun Mir StiIlson asked the boy if he knew where he could get a little fur, "Oh down there in the woods," said the youngster, and Mir Stillson succumbed. Mir StillsOn travels after fur as far north as Salisbury. file also buys consider able game, cartridges and the like, which are brought to his market. Mir StiIIsOn is an experienced hunter, by the way, but doesn't get much time to enjoy this sport.

so don't fret at the present fashion. If you can't coax your hair to set in side curls. you can buy side combs with curls all ready attached, and get along very we'll. The hair should cover the ears, and, though you may look like a fright that way, you must part the hair in the middle. You must have color in your gowns, even if you do it with rows of narrow ribbon at five cents yard. Your gown may be shabby, but the lin- ing of it must crinkle and crunch as you walk.
 You may take advantage of the fact that this sentence begins a new para graph and stop for breath, but you'd better go on again and read the descrip- tion of the dress in the sketch. It is made from steel gray silk and trimmed with black velvet. The bodice hooks in front and has a wide pleated plastron that hooks over and is edged with velvet brettelles. It forms epaulettes, is round in the back and is edg2d with narrow jet passementerie. The sleeves have a IUUCu anu iull bdIiOoH pulIS IIdbkt of straight breadths of silk. The skirt of the bodice is made up of umbrella gores and is lined with silk and garnish- ed with two circular fi0unces of velvet headed with jet. You may like this style of dress or you may not, but be- fore you definitely decide, be assured that it is a brand new model and ought to be just right.
 A serviceable black house dress can be made with full straight skirt of china silk of good quality, fastened to a belt through which a drawing ribbon runs with the bodice fastened to this same belt so the whole thing goes on at once and fastens in front. With great droop- there tight cuffs to the wrist, and with high choker collar, because low collar is so unbecoming in the morning, the lit tie gown will last, and with constant use, too, till you are sick and tired of it, and even then you will not have the heart to throw away so faithful ser want. When you are tired of it, into the washtub with it, then give it a good pressing, and remodel it to your liking.
 Such gown is for a working dress, but the stylish house gown of the illus tration is an exceedingly dressy one with much attention paid to what is purely ornamental. The material en- ployed is a pink woolen stuff, with front of white surah trimmed with bands of moss green passementerie to match the garniture of the gown. The dress is cut princess. The front panel buttons over and is held in place at the waist by straight passementerie belt and the back has no seams as far as the waist

and the skirt part is gored and shirred to the top. The fronts are left full and turned back to form revers that reach from top to bottom. These are either embroidered or ornamented with passe- menterie. Thes same trimming comes around the bottom. The fullness in the waist is laid in few pleats above the shirring. and the sleeves have double epaulettes edged with passementer e.. The latter also trims the cuffs.
 Basques are made with little skirts about the waist that stands out in fluffy frills. It is a most trying style for any but very slender figures. Round waists are all gone by, but you may put frill to the belt of your round waist and be stylish.

WhyP

Why should the truth be sup
pressed?
Why should crime be condoned?
Ifevlls exist, is it right to conceal
them?
If wrongs against society are being
committed, is it just to society that
those wrongs should be winked at,
the results Of those wrongs covered
up, aud society made to suffer through
timidity, expediency or policy9
The above are few OF the ques-
tions that every citizen, male or fe-
male, should PROFOUND and answer
each for himself or herself, because
the welfare of the nation depends
upon the honesty and purity of the
individual.
Until we realize this fact and EN-
body this principal into our acts, all
in vain will be our protestations of
patriotism and professions of Christi
anlty.
Ii we were to ask any sane man or
woman whether or not it were better
that the exact condition of our town,
state or nation should be made
known, the answer, if made after even
brief reflection, would be: Let the
truth be known. If, after the truth
were once established, it was found
that everything was not just as it
should be, what then would be the
duty of each and every loyal man
aud woman? The answer would at
once come; Go to work and make
right that which is wrong. When
once the people Of any community
have arrived at clear understanding
of what is best, there will be no long
delay in bringing that thing to pass
Among the reasons why all do not
see conditions alike are the different
points of view from which things are
looked at, the conflict of interest and
the prejudiCes which have taken hold
of people. For instance: New Eng
land papers, notably the Boston
Globe and the Boston Herald, are di-
lating on the EZRA of good feeling
that now exists. A leading Boston
lawyer speaks of the country as being
never SO prosperous as now, and q
great many papers, looking only al
the enormous aggregate of the wealth
of this nation, are taking up the cry
Of prosperity" and sending it out tc
the world, when, if we take the trou
BILE to study the question only in +;
small measure, we see capital every
where combining in trusts and the
wealth OF the world flowing in gol

produce it and dropping with a mu
steal jingle into the Golfers of tht
