THE CAT CAME BACK.

Mrs W. E Curtiss, of the West Side, is the pOssessor of three bouncing cats, and it became evident that there was too much cat for one household, the old mother pussy was presented to friends in the country, being securely tied in a bag which was placed in a closed portion Of the carriage. Pussy, however, missed the whirl of city life and suddenly left. and when all had about given up for lost, appeared sereneIy at her former mistress door. How she found the road, not one inch of which she had seen from her po- sition in the bag, amazes all, and now she is the hero of the hour and has become SO endeared to the family that no thought of again parting could for moment be entertained -T Sentinel.
 In regard to the above item, which ap- peared in the Ansonia Sentinel, Novem- Der II, an interested party informs us the most important part of the story is left out, as the following facts will show. The cat was carried to Mrs Ruth Wells who lives in the lower part of Hull's Hill, l2 miles from her home, October 2, and remained there two days. Her first appearance in Ansonia November 3, it taking her over a month to find her way home again, but seemed to be in good conditi-n, yet somewhat hungry.

Do you contemplate committing
 matrimony this fall? If you do you
 will need Furniture and Carpets be-
 fore you can settle down to house
 keeping and we are going to suggest
 that it would b9 vary proper and 8 i very prudent thing to come to Flaw
 leyVill8 and look us over before you l buy. We have an immense stock to select from and our facilities for hand
 ling are such that we can make a liv- ing commission and yet sell way bs- low city prices. We have no 50 called leaders in the store. Did you ever an alyze leader? It's an article of low value, sold at cost or little less, for the purpose of creating false impress sion. No expensive piece of furniture is ever made use of as a leader. All of our goods are marked on a consis- tent commission. You can pick up some of the other fellows leaders at a less price than we will sell, but if you want fine piece, or general assort ment of furniture, to furnish up
 house, you will find that the sum tot al of bill selected at HaWleyville will b9 much less than the sum total of the same bill selected in the city We are sending great many goods to the cities of Connecticut in direct com potion with large stocks in those cit ies. This no doubt seems to you lat first thought absurd, and 8 stretch of the truth, that people should leave places like Hartford and New Haven and come to Hawleyville to buy but there IS a good and valid reason why we can make it for their inter- est to do so
 Did you ever think how much room it requires to handle a large stock of Futnl ture? And did you ever think what it costs to rent and maintain that room ia the city? Just consider for moment the odds in our favor, both in expense and facilities for hand ling, and you will see nothing 80 very absurd in city people coming to flaw IeyVille to buy furniture. In these times people are quite apt to buy where the purchasing power of a dol lar is the most. It will ever be thus until we have free coinage, and silver dollars are distributed around to the masses in 8 basket.
 We are selling pianos now, and if you are going to buy one this fall don't | fail to let us know it

SHILOH.
THIEVES NOT DISCUSSING THE CODE OF
 MORALS.

MORALS.
 There seems to be a question here with few persons, whether it is right to steal: The affirmative declare and main. tain that what they need is theIrs by the Divine Right of Kings" The neg atiye maintain that there is no "divine right to rule or steal. Yet, when a man is taking down chickens to one below. as Sambo did, and asks this question: "JOhn, is tbis right to steal these chick ens:'' sam says: That is a great moral question; no time to discuss that question nOw-hand down another chicken" The thieves who have stolen Willie Winton'g second suit of clothes, potatoes and other things, don't discuss moral questions at all. The question seems to be, how to do it and not get detected. The barn burners on BotsfOrd Hill think the same.

1t Is Not
Reasonable

To suppose that a dealer who
knows his business, who
knows values, as no novice
can know them, would
charge you for his knoWl-
edge. knowledge of goods
makes it easy for him to pur-
chase right; and to sell right.
We claim to carry the best
goods known in our various
lines, and quality considered
sell them lower than most
houses in our line of trade.

and most sympathetic soprano sole
by Mrs. Turner. The piano solo
of Miss Greene, which concluded
the program of three numbers, wa:
very much enjoyed by her listen

she plays it is to a sympathetl
audience.

again into small groups at the con
clusion of the program, liquid re
