Soap

Why is Pears Soap--the
best in the world, the soap
with no free alkali in it
sold for IS cents a cake?
1t was made for a hospital
soap in the first place, made
by request; the doctors
wanted a soap that would
wash as sharp as any and
do no harm to the skin.
That means a soap all
soap, with no free alkali in
it, nothing but soap; there
is nothing mysterious in it.
Cost depends on quantity;
quantity comes of quality.
All sorts Of stores sell
it, especially druggists; all
sorts of people use it, espe-
cially those that know what's
what.

MORRIS.

SOMETHING DECIDEDLY LIKE A STILL g
 A few days ago, while Frank Roots and his brother-in-law, J. B. Roots, 2nd, were driving on the East Morris road, they came in collision with wag- on containing Mir Rylander of East Morris and his two sons. The force of the concussion was such that all five were thrown to the ground. MT Roots horse, high spirited creature, but we'll broken, stopped short at his masters word, but MT Rylander's went half way down the hill before his master got him under control. MT Roots was bruised in the back. Mir Rylander received a few gashes and bruises. The boys escaped with a sound shaking up, (always considered good for them.) The wagons were somewhat demoralized. As old Mother Earth shows her ribs quite prominently in the vicinity of the accident, it is wonder there in no sadder tale to chronicle. On reaching home, Frank Roots found a visitor had arrived, whose horse was stabled in his barn. As he was passing this horse, it gave him severe kick in the stomach Perhaps this will serve as remedy for a bruised back, on the old principle that
 ''Tis meete to soalke ye feete,
 Ye ailinge heade to menden
 Certainly almost any one would think it a case of 'sjustifiable swearicide'' if Mir Roots, at this point, had uttered words that no printer could spell.

A LIVELY RUNAWAY.

J. B. Whiteheads' s horse became fright ened in this village, last Saturday, and with carriage attached, but without a driver, made things lively from the har- ness shop to Rev H. Upson's. Fortu- nately no one was injured on the road. But one wagon, that belonging to James Reed, which was near c. P. Lyman's store, was run into and slightly injured. The horse, on account of the tie rope be- coming fastenened in the shoe of one hind foot, was obliged to stop and was then returned to the place from where it started, minus the carriage top, which became detached from the body near Tyrrell's blacksmith shop.

Probably the largest garden>in Wash ington, if not in Litchfield county, is that on the Richmond place, now owned by Mir Van Ingan, which supplies the tables at the Vacation Home with fresh and tempting garden products. The BEES representative visited this garden, the other day, and although little past it's prime, could get grand idea of it. Here we found at least four acres of ground devoted exclusively to garden stuff. Mir Irwin has but two men to as- sist him in the work of caring for this garden. It was model garden, too, in being free from weeds, while the luxuri- ant growth of corn, peas, beets, beans, etc., showed the results of generous fer tilization. The garden contains most everything in the vegetable line. As there has been from 30 to 60 people day at the Vacation Home right along, one can gain some idea of the quantity of vegetables necessary to supply them Mir Irwin has also raised five acres of oats, an acre of corn, all acre and half of potatoes, so he has quite a considera- ble general farming to attend to. Mir Van Ingan provides MT Irwin with three horses and he finds quite enough work to keep these busy. That MT Irwin is a good farmer may be shown from the fact that for l2 consecutive years he carried on the Mrs Polly Seeley farm. At any rate he thoroughly understands garden ing, and knows how to carry it on on an extensive scale and make success of 1t.
