How Some Men Make Success-Come to
 Them While Others Fail
 William H. Wanamaker of the Phila- delphia firm of Wanamaker & Brown, is no believer in the dull season theory.
 We advertise the year round,'' said he recently. There is always some trade doing, even in the dullest season, and we strive to divert the floating or transient trade to our place.
 When business ordinarily is dull people who see our invitations in the newspapers are more apt to read them for the reason that they have more time to read and there are fewer adver- tisements then. Many merchants who have been in business for a certain number of years will say, Oh, we are so we'll known 1t is no use for us tc advertise There never was a greate, mistake. We would as soon think of canceling our insurance policies as our advertising contracts. We spend more money with newspapers each year that goes by; there are more people who want goods and new trade is always coming to the surface

SAVED HIS WIFE. Remarkable Result of an Ad-
 vertisement. Death Was Near When MT. Peck
 Read It. He Was With the Bridgeport
 Brass Co.

M. M Peck is a Bridgeport man, living for many years on East Main street, and who for eight years was in the employ of the Bridgeport Brass company. He writes:
 About five years ago we lost child while my wife was approaching con- finement and in her delicate state the shock brought on nervous prostration. My wife has never been the same since. The nerves of the stomach being affect ed caused what doctors called nervous dyspepsia. Her suffering was awful Why even the whites of a couple of eggs distressed her so that she was forced to give up all work.
 Gases in the stomach at the same time affected her heart until 1t seemed that death would result at any moment.
 Last April I saw Furitana adver- tised in paper and was attracted by the name of pr. Crosby, which is well known in our family. At the suggestion of my wife we tried Puritana.
 "As for the result it has been truly astounding. Before one bottle was used a change for the better was noticeable or I should not have bought another Now, after several bottles, she eats three good meals day and food does not distress her in the least. Before trying Puritana, we had al different times tried four doctors in Bridgeport to no effect.
 | T have convinced several friends by my firm belief in Puritana and gladly give my testimony to the public in tht hope that others may receive the sam. benefits that Puritana has brought tc my wife.'
 (Signed) M. M. PECK.
 Box 4S9, Stratford While MT. Peck was one, probably tht first person in Bridgeport to try Puri l tana, his example has since been fol. lowed by numberless citizens.

manner of "bound books" magazines and periodicals before the desired daily paper is produced? Is the condition of the road so desperate that you are ob- llged to resort to such petty, such con- temptible, expedients? It is not for me to suggest what ought to be done. If you will only put your mind to these matters the remedies will be easy.
 I suppose that long before reaching this point I would have been howled down and fired out. In the safety Of my study I continue, but in another vein.
 Why should not train be pushed in- stead of drawn? Electric communica- ton would enable the guard in front to control the locomotive behind as quick ly and as easily as if he were on it; while engineer and fireman would not be distracted from their immediate du- ties by lookout necessities. On steam ships the k-out and the engineer are quite as far away from one another as the length of an ordinary train; while the steamship, because it runs on no fixed line, or rail, needs at least as quick handling. If a train be strong enough to be pulled there can be no difficulty in making it strong enough to be pushed. With the locomotive be- hind, there would be no cinders, no smoke and far less dust. Seats in the front car would be so desirable that you might charge extra for them and use the extra cash for ventilating pur- poses. In case of head-on collision the locomotive would be the last thing hurt; while the engineer would be very careful to keep his train from any rear approaching danger The guard would be the one all-important conductor of the train Conflicts of authority be- tween conductor and engineer would be impossible Is not this idea a good one? Will not some road catch on? Why should not the Consolidated catch on first?
 Think all these things over, ye wise and benign plutocrats. Give us fresh air for breathing purposes during the coming winter. Let us have our news papers when we want them, Deliver us from the tyranny of the whisk- broom and consider the beauties of the push D. CADY EATON.

Judge Shumway's Decision in the Quo
 Warranto Case--The Danielson Church
 Trouble.
 Putnam, Oct. 25-Judge Shumway of the superior court rendered his decision late yesterday afternoon in the quo warranto case brought by Alderman James Sullivan to determine what title Police Captain William H. Langdon has to his office. The petitioner claimed that Mayor Smith had right to veto Langdon's appointment by the common council, but the court decided that the mayor did not have that power. The petitioner may appeal the case to the supreme court, as it is one that grows out of the incorporation of Putnam as city less than year ago.
 Judge Shumway now has the Daniel son church case to decide. Saturday he heard the arguments on both, sides. The case is one of quo warranto pro ceedings to approve or annul the elec- tion of trustees for St James Roman Catholic church. The judge reserved his decision, but 1t is looked for soon. Judge McManus of Hartford and Charles Burton of Middletown repre- scented the church authorities and Judge Arthur Bill of Danielson and Charles E. Searles of Putnam appeared for the dissatisfied parishioners.
