Stop and Think
Manufacturers, Merchants, Me- chanics, Laborers and the Un-
 employed. "A real live text for a Thanksgiving Proclamation.

Ire country is going through mighty moral Revolution, and the people are help less bystanders. We want to blame SOMETHING or SOMEBODY. and we don't know what-Silver, Tariff, etc, etc. But, in the natural course of events We ought to be engaged in great war; and our Waterbury boys at this time would be kissing their sweethearts goodbye, hus- bands would be leaving wives, homes would be broken, shot and shell, the boom- ing of cannon and the crack of the rifle would be heard Tn the land. In the his tory of the world how often have nations passed through 8 years without war: His tory shows the time, B years. when some thing drops which makes the world listen! Thirty-three years ago the immortal Lln- coin, with his great personality, threw himself into the breach to avert war, but failed. It took 8 years for the Saviour of man to lay the foundation of Christian ity, and it continues to grow stronger-ls it marches down the centuries. Thomas Jefferson, at the age of B years. wrote the Declaration of Independence, which is next in importance to the Sermon on the Mount.
 Washington and Parnell compelled the world to listen to the voice of Liberty at the age of 8 years. At the age of B years the Spirit moved us to lay the foun- dations of the world-renowne1 Waterbury Furniture Co. It was B years after Lin coin was elected president that we bought the American Pin Cos plant on East Main street, which will change the course of all buyers to that spot as soon as We remove. We have beautiful line of hlgh-prlced Chamber Sets and Parlor Suits, on which the price is cut in two almost. Those Fold ing Beds are going fast. We must sell our immense stock before We move To East Main street.
