A SUMMER HINT.
The Delights of the Housatonic Sum-

The Delights of the Housatonic SUM
mer Home.
Now is the time when the thrifty
purse holder counts it's contents care
fully with view to indulging in bit
of a rest and change of scene.
Our Connecticut coast Is fairly lined
with resorts of more or less renoWn,
where those who love the sea may nave
a glimpse of it's beauties at medium eX-
pense To others the green GOODNESS of
the country appeals. A thirty-tive cent
trolley trip brings such to the very
gateway of stopping place whose at
tractiveness of natural scenery and
pleasing accommodations are enhanced
by many a quaint appurtenance.
The house stands on high ground
Two immense buttonball trees guard
the entrance. Upon the long veranda
swings hammock with room to spare
for those who prefer to sit; the hall,
with rooms on either side, terminates
in a dining room, which extends the
full width of the house, and from
whose south door one may look upon
the beautiful Housatonic and never
tire. Sunlight and moonlight fall upon
the waters with always a message to
those that can hear The house IS
roomy, the accommodations plain, the
guests are limited in number and re-
stricted by one distinction, they must
be self-supporting the fare is ample
and the atmosphere within and without
speaks welcome. That the greatest
number may enjoy the hospitality of
the Housatonic Summer Home, two
weeks is the limit of each boarder's
stay, though this time may be extended
in certain circumstances. The price for
board is three and half dollars per
week, but to parties of twelve or more,
going at the same time, reduction of
fifty cents a week may be arranged
To protect guests from undesirable
companions, as well as to prevent over
crowding the house, those desiring to
go there must make application to the

bership of the House during the next

by the influence OF certain senators
from several Of the larger Northern
states who threw the weight Of their
influence into the scale in favor of the
larger membership.
When il became apparent that these
factors were at work against his BILL
Hopkins attempted to compromise by
giving an additional representative
each to North Dakota, Colorado and
Florida. but his adversaries refused to
compromise after complete victory was
assured.

sofa, New Jersey and Pennsylvania,
two each: and Arkansas, California,
Colorado. Connecticut, Florida, Louisi-
ana. Massachusetts,, Missouri, North
