A FAVORABLE BUSINESS SIGN-BUILDINa
 NOTES AND PERMITS.

One favorable sign of returning con- fidenee is noted, this week. This is the resumption of loauing freely upon real estate security by the savings banks of the city, and it is hoped that the inn provement may be permanent. No less than 12 loans were made by the local savings banks, last week, the whole amount of the loans aggregating S43, ,650. If the banks continue to loan as freely as before the panic, it will have a very beneficial effect upon building operations.
 Swan & Bushnell have opened their new office at No. ? in the Arcade, where they are very pleasantly located in roomy offices. A general real estate and loan business will be carried on.

AN AFFECTIONATE TRIBUTE
TO THE MEMORY OF REV II. L. WHEELER.

Rev Henry l.. Wheeler was born in Monroe in 1923 and was the youngest of three sons of Samuel and Betsey Smith Wheeler. In his boyhood he attended the district school, one of whose teachers was Mrs Zalmon Peck, still living at an advanced age on Mile Hill in this town.
 He remained at home on the farm, till at the age of 17 he commenced teaching. In this employment he had good success, and there are those still living in this and adjacent towns who were his pupils. In
 1S49, while principal of the public school in Sandy Hook. he was married to Mrs Sarah Tucker, whose family consisted of three children, one of whom, Mrs Emily 4. Bennett, is still living and a resident of this town. Another child born later died in infancy. In 1852 MT Wheeler purchased the tin and stove business of Timothy L. Jordan in Sandy Hook, in which he continued until he sold it to Ezra J. Hall about eight years ago. Since that time he has turned his atten- tion in part to agriculture. MT Wheeler's religious life commenced before he left
 the home of his childhood. When he be- came resident of this town he connect ed himself with the Methodist Episcopal church, in which for many years he was trustee and steward and an active and
 interested participant in all it's affairs. He took an effective part in the erection of the parsonage and ever gave his care to it's keeping and improvement as well church. His studious tastes, mental alertness and religious fervor were
 acknowledged by the church with the grant of license to preach and he made such proof of his ministry that the an- nual conference conferred on him dea- cons orders. When on several occasions
 a vacancy occurred in the pastorate he
 was called to occupy it. He served with acceptance, also in other. places as a sup ply. His health was always somewhat precarious. but was so judiciously con- served that he rarely, if ever, failed to respond to the demands of his temporal and ecclesiastical relations. During the
 last few weeks pulmonary difficulties, to
 which he was predisposed- increased upon him and remedies formerly successful failed to give reliet and pneumonia super
 vened. His death following so soon that
 of his estimable and beloved wife creates a sad vacancy in the household, the com
 munity and the church with whose his torv he has baen so long and so Drom- inently deutified.-CW. T. Gilbert. a.Ea

The Time to Buy Spring
 Goods Draws Near!

And we would like to call your attention to
 our stock of furniture at HawleyvilIe. We
 have finely selected stock, no back num- bers in it and all fresh and new. We have a
 demand, and a steadily growing one, tor fine
 goods and we keep them. We aim to get all
 the new and pretty designs as soon as they
 are out and one thing you rest assured
 of, you will find no old and out-of style pat
 terms in our stock. There is hardly town or
 city in the state that we have not shipped
 goods to during the past year, and if you have
 not seen our store and stock, your neighbors
 have and can tell you all about it, but we
 would like very much to have you see tor yourself, and we believe it will pay you to come and look over before you buy, this spring. Although we are away out in the bowling wilderness and all tangled up in the tall grass, can sell furniture here. Our
 many advantages of location, excellent rail road facilities, small expenses and the volume | of business we have been doing the past year
 enable to handle furniture on the very | smallest possible commission and still make | q living profit. Now if we don't sell you the | same grade of work at less than city prices | it's our own fault and you may set us right down as possessing vicious and selfish dis | position. We have a fine stock of goods and l if you want pretty china closet, sideboard, | bookcase, desl< or q fine chamber suit you | can't afford to pass HawleyVllle by. It won't | take long to come here, but if you are going | anywhere from anywhere, on the railroad, | you will naturally have to pass through Haw- leyville. Stop of train and look over. Now, come to look back and read what we have written, this whole article sounds very | much, to a person of our extremely modest | dcmeanor like blowing ones own horn, and blowing it very violently, too; but the ques- l tion arises, Who is going to do it ii we don't? | We feel very kindly disposed toward our | neighbors and would willingly lend our horn
 any day, but everybody seems to like his own | the best and then you can seldom find a man
 who can play the most familiar tune a | borrowed horn without making & discord. | You ask him to blow in "Yankee Doodle'' or | Hail Columbia" and when it comes out at | the other end 10 to one it's "Liliuokolanis La
 ment" or "God Save the Queen, just as plaIn | as notes can make it. They blow in straight, | but they put a sly base ball twist into the wind and we can't trust 'em. So,dear friends, you must excuse us if we seem to be forever | lastingly blowing our own horn; but without | any joking we would like very much to have you see stock, after which, if you advise | a small horn, we'll certainly get it. We are | now headquarters in Western Connecticut for l the New Home sewing machine. Don't you | buy until you have seen us. You will be sorry | if you do
 | Don't forget our reading room and free cot- | ice while waiting for trains.
