THE STOVE CLUB sREoRGAN1zEs.

THE STOVE CLUB PROGRAMMES.
With the falling of the leaves, attend
ed by the chill frost of the air, comes
the groups about the stoves in shop and
store, and while 'stobaker" is not the
crop it has been here, and consequently
the discussion in reference to that weed
has seemed to wane, we are obliged to
listen to the same old tales of fishing
and hunting and cooning as of yore and
little later vast amount of cordwood
and stove wood will be the principal
theme of inspiration. We enjoy each
year to hear "the lives of great men" SO
thoroughly warranted by the s'great
men, themselves and only wish our
birthday had commenced under such a
planet as we know some Of theirs did
to result in deeds so appalling and un-
excelled. Solomon in all his glory
never could have contrived the gigantic
greatest wonder seems to be that such
exploits and labor should not have re-
sounded to the fartherest shore. There
Is nothing which brings out some mems
life work and achievements equal to a
good fire in public sitting place, and it
is such satisfaction seemingly to these
old warriors to narrate over and over
their past deeds we truly envy them
the satisfaction consequent and the re-
Election of their life's work and successes.
Long may all live to enjoy it in retro
spect, and how fortunate the winters are
so long that we may enjoy often and re-
peatedly narration of past time and
olden time experiences and exploits.
May we all live too, SO as to realize and
profit if possible by present day oppor-
tunities.

LITCHFIELD.
L1TcHFIELD's FINEST STORE.

The stranger who visits the fine old
town Of Litchfield, is sure before leaving
to have his attention drawn to the jewelry
establishment of E. L. Pratt, as it is in
deed the finest store the village boasts.
Mr. Pratt may be called hustler, for no
slow-going man would have thought it
possible that Litchfield should have a
iewelry store, larger and more elegantly
stocked than anything in the Naugatuck
valley. Mr. Pratt had the store arrang-
ed to perfection, when along came the fire
of last winter, and laid the block he oc-
cupied in ashes, while the many beauti-
full goods in his store helped to add fuel
to the flames, or melted and added to the
pile Of debris in the cellar. But not dis
heartened, he engaged store in the new
and improved block erected by bis uncle
and in the spring time opened up again.
His quarters are now handsomer even
than before. The cases are of rich de-
sign, and everything is as a live business
man Of to-day would wish it. A repre-
sentative OF TEE BEE who dropped in the
other day, was shown some of the beau
tiful goods carried. Here was tray,
10x12 inches, which contained $1,000
worth OF diamond rings. Here was an
other tray filled with solid gold rings,
worth $1,000 or more. In fact, when
you come to fine jewelry it doesn't take
long to run up into the thousands. Mr.
Pratt's idea is to have the best. He
calculates to have so fine a stock that
any visitor to his store can be made
happy without tedious journey to
Waterbury or Torrington. The city
guests also find his store good place to
trade. just now Mr. Pratt is preparing
for Christmas, and he proposes to give
his patrons such feast Of bargains in
beautiful goods that they are bound to
buy in large quantities. He has an i'm
mense repair trade and Is called on to
doctor anything In the time-keeping line
from granddaddies' clock to the finest
watch.

were read:
WRITTEN AT THE DEATH OF HARRY j. Kill
BORN, OCTOBER 81, 1895, BY HIS BROTHER.
Asleep in death, dear brother
Oh! God. Thou knowest best.
Have mercy on father and mother,
May they, by Thee, be blessed.
Teach us to say, as our Saviour did,
"Thy will, not mine, be done"
Help us to respond to Thy bid,
That we may meet Harry beyond.
Always in life his home he loved,
And close to his mother was ever found.
In death his soul ascends above
Where joy and love abound.
Harry, dear Harry, forever gone
To partake OF eternal reward.
May we ever remember the good he has done
And with Gods help govern ourselves in
accord.
