That is why MALT NU-
TRINE has taken the lead of
all other preparations contain
ing the curative properties of
Malt.
A few reasons why Malt Nu-
trine is superior to other ex-
tracts is:
1. That it contains almost Is
per cent of Pure Malt Extract,
with less than 2 per cent of Al
cohol.
2. 1t can be given to children
with perfect safety.
8. 1t is not an excitant slim
ulant. The benefits to be de-
rived by Nursing Mothers dur
ing the period of lactation can
not be overestimated.
All persons requiring Tonic
and Fat Producer should not
fail to give Malt Murine
trial.
People of every walk of life,
from the laborer to those in
the highest ranks of nobility,
will find beneficial results from
taking Malt Murine.
The feeling of exhaustion,
brought on by the prevailing
south wind, can be overcome
by this valuable preparation.
The demand for Malt Murine
has increased so greatly that
we have been enabled to pur-
chase large quantities, thereby
reducing the price to within the
reach of all.
Single Bottles, 35 cents.
Per Dozen, $3.50.
We are giving away with ev-
cry purchase of Malt Murine
an elegant Nickel-Plated Cork
screw and Match Box, worth
at least twice the figure asked
for the article.
Don't fail to avail yourself OF
this opportunity to receive
much for little.

A BIRTHDAY PARTY.

The surprise birthday party which took place, last Friday evening, st the residence of J. w. Collins in Christian Street, was a decided success and de- lightful affair in every way. It was the anniversary of the birth of MT Collins. His sister had so arranged every thing to make it a pleasant affair both to her brother and all the the guests. There were between 50 and 60 persons present, including niece of MT Collins from Bridgeport, who came to enjoy the fes- tiYities. The parlor was prettily trim med with greens and hemlock boughs, which together with the potted plants, made grand display in the lighted room. The ballroom was gaily trimmed with red, white and blue banners, one banner being 12 feet long. Bunting of the same colors draped the windows and doors and folding doors and hemlock boughs decor. ated every side of the room, making the grandest display your correspondent has ever had the good fortune to witness. Next comes the dining room, which was trimmed with hemlock boughs. Over the folding doors banner 12 feet long was draped, which made gay display. Mu. sic was furnished by Young's orchestra and the merry dancers tripped the light fantastic toe until the small hours in the morning. At midnight cake of many kinds, coffee and all the good things were served. Then with singing and music on the organ all indulged in dancing and at last came the time to depart for home. All seemed 10th to leave the gay scene, but as all good things must have an end, 90 must this also. All departed declar- ing it the best time they had ever had, after wishing MT Collins many happy re- turns of the day.

WARREN.
AN IGNORED VETERAN.

Martin Strong, in the sudden loss of his voice, is blessed with the use of
 speech once more, though somewhat
 labored. It requires an effort to express
 himself. He seems to be we'll as usual,
 otherwise. This paralysis of his speech
 did not affect his memory in the least or
 his locomotion. Indeed, he rose up and
 walked about the room, before in any
 degree he recovered the power of speech
 We found him sitting up and ready to converse in his way. He is in his 87th year, his birthday occurring in septem- ber. He was born in 1910, during Madi sons administration. He attended a singing school here in the winter of 1S24-25 and sang in the choir at the set clement of MT. Talcott as pastor of the church in 1825.. R Petet Siarr was made pastor emeritus and died in 1929. In the large choir of the church at that time there were five about his age Only two of the five are now alive, the sister of Closson Stone and MT Strong. He sung in the choir over half cen tury or un il his voice refused to assert it's right, in the high keys. He was an expert on the bass viol or the violor- cello. He had New Years present of his picture, which represents him as seated in a chair with his instrument, in l the act of playing. Miss Crane is the artist, and the work shows that she is not wanting in taste and skill in this direction and is a prognostication of what may come from her pencil and brush in the future. We hope Mr. Strong will. be spared to the family a org time yet. All of his faculties seemt and he is the only link, with he proper capabilities of linking the present. to the early years of this cen- ury. In one sense, noihifg can take
