\ SELF DENIAL" CONTRIBUTION

Asked for in a Circular Sent Out by
Commander Booth-Tucker of the Sal
walton Army.
The following circular letter has been
sent out, signed by Commander Booth
Tucker and his wife of the Salvation
army:
Once more it is our privilege to plead
with you on behalf of the multitudes
amongst whom we labor. l am sure
you will let me remind you that upon
your response will depend the happi-
ness, not only for time, but for eternity
of thousands whom you have never
seen, but who, we are persuaded, will
rise up on the last day to call you
blessed.
The help which you so generously
granted us during last self-denial week
has enabled us to deal with thousands
of the most unfortunate and needy
poor. Permanent shelters and other in
situations with accommodation for
about 5000 persons have been opened
during the year.
New rescue homes for fallen women
have been esta blished in several of the
leading cities. New schemes have been
launched for reaching the criminal
classes. Our work among the children
has been very considerably extended
together with which we have, during
the past few months, opened home for
waits and strays.
Besides these permanent operations
we were enabled to nightly shelter, dur
ing the severest weather of last winter,
upwards of 5000 of the homeless poor,
while independent of these relief works,
our ordinary spiritual operations, which
reach every week some three million of
the community, have been, by Gods
blessing, most encouragingly and sue
cessfully conducted.
But the need Is so great that we are
sure you will let us appeal to you again.
1t is for the most destitute we plead
those whose sin and misery place them
beyond the reach of ordinary methods,
and yet among whom, as a class, God
has made the army so singularly use
full
Those of us who minister to their
needs have already placed our all upon
the altar. We deplore our inability to
do more Our flesh and blood, our time
and talents, are given to the work. We
place in your hands, as it were, the Sal
walton army lifeline, and we ask you.
in Gods name, to throw it out to these
perishing multitudes.
If you cannot do all that your gener-
Gus heart would prompt, will you not
at least do the little that you can? Do
not despise the day of small things.
The quarter, the dime and the nickel
have been the most potent weapons in
Salvation army warfare. If you can
give more, we shall be deeply grateful.
If not, God will measure your gift rath-
er by your spirit than by it's amount,
and He, the great Rewarder, will re-
ward you.
Yours truly, on behalf of the perish
ing,
F. DE SAVIOUR BOOTH-TUCKER.
EMMA NJ. BOOTH-TUCKER,
Commanders.

GET WELL AND STAY WELL.
Get Rid of What Makes You Sick and
Stay Rid of 1t.

1t is so simple to be well that we Won
der why there are SO many sick people
Come to think about it, must be be-
cause they don't know what's made
them sick.
If they knew that, they could pre-
vent it, and when they were sick, in
some cases cure themselves. But, so
long as we don't take more care of our
health, we shall always be more or less
sick.
The simple rules Of health are: Keep
clean, take exercise, eat good food, scour
out your stomach.
This last means: Don't tolerate indi-
gestion. Cure it with Shaker Digestive
Cordial A stomach full Of undigested,
fermented, putrid food is the unhealthi-
est thing you can think Of
Half our diseases and troubles come
from the poisons of undigested food.
More than half Of them could be cured
with Shaker Digestive Cordial
More than half, because often when
we think we are sick we are only weak,
and course Of nourishing food digested
without effort by the stomach with the
aid of Shaker Digestive CordiaD would
reinvigorate the whole system and make
us well.
A ten cent trial bottle will prove it.
At druggists.

POLO NOTES.

New Ravens still go on their way re-
joicing. Saturday night again saw
them win we'll earned victory by de-
feating the swift Meriden team, 6 goals
to 5.
True, the game was close and neither
side had much to crow about. New
Haven by winning Saturday night s
game took still firmer hold on first
place, and brought to close week s
work that is worth recording. The
team have now won six straight games.
How many more in the league can
claim the same?
Doubtless when the team make their
appearance at the ring on Tuesday eve
ming to face the music of the Brass City
rooters they will be met by one of the
largest crowds of the season. From
their play the team deserve every en-
enlargement from the public.
Hartford Is the only team up to the
present time who have been able to
wrest victory from the New Havens
in their own rink Hartford will be
here Friday evening to try and repeat
the performance. But the New Havens
say mot if we know The meeting
will be sure to draw another big crowd.
Wallingford has at last awakened UP
to the fact that if she was to remain
in the league something would have to
be done in order to strengthen the team.
President Heineman went to Portland
last week and word has just come which
is official that he has been successful
in engaging two crack players, Dawson
and Kelly, who will take the places OF
Mitchell and Miller, who have been re-
leased. Both men will play against
Hartford tonight.
George Bone. the famous rusher OF
the Pawtuckets, is doing great work
for his team. Bone is son Of G. D.
Bone, the printer on Court street.

FIRST CHAMPIONSHIP BATTLE

FIRST CHAMPIONSHIP BATTLE.
The first championship battle ever
seen in the state Of Connecticut will
take place at the Hyperion theater on
Wednesday night, when Dan Murphy
and Jack Coston meet for twenty
rounds at 1856 pounds and box for the
Richard Fox belt and purse of $500.
The winner of this go will become the
champion middleweight Of the state Of
Connecticut, and as both men have
been training very faithfully for this go
they will put up one of the swiftest
bouts ever seen in the state. Murphy
has been training hard at his home in
Waterbury for the past two weeks and
as he is matched to meet Tommy West
on the Goth of this month in Water
bury he will try and do his utmost to
get a decision over the New Haven
man. Coston is a very clever fellow,
and knows that when he meets Muir
ply he will have to be in the best of
shape, as Murphy is one Of those men
that fights from start to finish and he
will be at Coston from the call of time
until the end of the twentieth round, if
it lasts that long. At all events, this
bout will certainly be one Of the swift
est ever seen in this vicinity.

THE LONDON MARKET

London, Jan. 9.-The ease of the mon
ey market was accentuated during the
past week. Money and discount rates
have fallen, and it is expected that
terms for deposits will be lower shortly.
One cause for the relapse has been the
disappearance of the continental gold
demand, which has resulted in fall in
the price for bars. On the stock eX-
change business increased substantial
ly.
There was big buying of Canadian
railway shares. The rise in Grand
Trunks ranged from 11S to 81 points:
and certain Pacific stocks went up 3%
points.
Argentine and Mexican railway secur-
tiles were also in good demand

birds were shown by each side, of which

In each instance they lost without putting
