ofa Highly Useful and Beneficent organi-
 zation-Its Past and Present.
 Thirty years ago, l. e., November 16, 1867, through the faithful efforts of a few Odd Fellows in this city, headed by the late Joseph R. Bunday the Odd Fellows Mutual Aid association of Con- necticut was organized, an association formed for the purpose of affordlng aid and pecuniary assistance to the widows or other heirs of it's deceased members.
 Being almost the first association to attempt this work based on the assess ment plan, 1t was looked upon with some misgivings and It's stability and ability to perform it's work questioned. Yet to-day it completes its thirty years of active business life, and is probably the oldest fraternal organization of its character in existance in this country.
 That it has been of material assist ance to those for whose help and aid 1t was formed the following figures will show, for during It's business ca reer it has paid benefits 70 the widows Oi OtiGl uClIS u lllllC LeaAtoASA eAio thirty-two (932) deceased members, ag- gregating the sum of $1, ,73S, and at a cost to the deceased members of S269,- 503.27.
 Its membership. at present is 2,97O; its united funds about $30,000, and its claims promply paid and in full.
 No suit at law has ever been brought against the association, neither has the association had occasion to bring suit against member or his beneflciaries, and to-day it stands in a quiet and un- ostentatious manner, keeping within the grand lines laid down by it's found- CTS and affording an example for many to follow.
 Its first officers were: President, Joseph K. Sunday; vice president, AL fred w. Phelps; secretary Ellery Camp; treasurer, S. H. Harris. All are now de- ceased.
 Since 1888 Hon. L. P. Deming has been its president George N. Moses has occupied the position of secretary since May, 1873, and Frederick Bots- ford is its treasurer.
 Its record is one of which It's meln- bers are proud, and its prospects are bright for a continued and useful ex- l istance.

HELP THE POOR TO KEEP WARM
 THANKSGIVING DAY.

For a. number of years past it has been the custom of the Organized Char ities association of this city to remem- Der poor families known to them, with donations of fuel at the Thanksgiving season, as there is likely to be dupli- cation, if food is supplied.
 This form of relief has the merit of some permanence, is greatly appreciat- ed by the recipients, and applications are now coming in rapidly In order to continue the custom, and to supply the need as already indicated, contribu- tions are now solicited from those who wish to use this office as the vehicle of their benevolence to the unfortunate.
 Good coal can be supplied at S5 for tons or for $2.65 for half tons, and con- tributions for any amount will be gratefully received at the office, 200 Orange street, and carefully expended for the purpose designated.

Stop! Women,

And consider that in addressing Mrs. Pinkham you are confding your private ills to woman--a woman whose ex- perience in treating woman's diseases is greater than that of any living phy- sician, male or female.
 You can talk freely to a woman when it is revolting to relate your private troubles to man; besides, man does not understand, simply because he is a man.

MRS. PINKHAM'S STANDING
 INVITATION.

Women suffering from any form of femaleweakness sareinvited topromptly communicate with Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass. All letters are re- ceived, opened, read, and answered by women only. A woman can freely talk of her private illness to woman. Thus has been established the eternal confidence between Mrs. Pinkham and the women of America which has never been broken. Out of the vast volume of experience which she has to draw from, it is more than possible that she has gained the very knowledge that will help your case. She asks nothing in return except your good will, and her advice has relieved thousands. Surely anywoman, rich or poor, is very foolish if she does not take advantage of this generous offer of assistance.

The "Theater of Current Events" il
the latest proposition in the line Of
theatrical novelties, says the New York
journal. The owner Of this idea, Har-

poses to found this theater on the news
interest principle. He thinks people

I'VE propose to give" he says, "stage
representations Of the news of the day

just as the daily papers do.
THE first natural objection is that
no performance dealing with entirely
new material every night could pos
sibly be prepared for the stage in time
to learn their parts and rehearse the
piece. After thinking it all over, l find
that that objection, like many others,
is utterly groundless. In the first place
we should not try, nor would the audi
ence expect us, under the circurn-
stances, to give finished performance

There would be only a few lines to
learn. Much of the sketch would be
business and pantomine. OF course,
all this has to be learned as well as
the lines, but it is comparatively
small matter There would Of course
be some lines. The characters in this
sketch, for instance, would be Mrs
