LIFE.

The poets exclamatiOn: 70 Life! feel thee bounding in my veins," is q joyous one. Persons that can rarely or never make it in honesty to themselves, are among the most unfortunate. They do not live, but exist: for to live i'm plies more morn to be. To live is to be well and Strong-to arise feeling equal to the ordinary duties of the day and to retire not overcome by them-to feel life bounding in the veins. A medi- cine that has made thousands of peo- pie, men and women, we'll and strong, has accomplished great work, be- slowing the richest blessings and that medicine is Hoods Sarsaparilla. The weak, rundown, or debilitated, from any cause, should not fail to take it. It builds up the whole sysetm, changes existence into life and makes life more abounding. We are. glad to say these words in its favor to the readers of our columns.

SAMUEL S. OSBORNE.

Samuel s. Osborne, one of the oldest and best known of Readings citizens, died at his home on the Ridge, Sunday forenoon. He had been seriously ill only about week but the infrmities of old age had been making serious in- roads on his naturally strong consti- tuition for the past year. He was in his 9Oth year, having been born in Wilton in 1912. He was deprived of his father at an early age and thus thrown upon his own resources. His life is a fine example of what may be accomplished by economy and thrift. Commencing with small means he had succeeded in acquiring a competence and was considered one of our most we'll to do citizens. He was man of the strictest integrity and fulfilled the scripture injunction to provide | things honest in the sight of all men. One characteristic of his life was his willingness to help any one out of a tight spot and there are many men who can testify to the fact. For more than 50 years his hospitable home has fur nlshed entertainment to transient guests and summer boarders and all who came once were glad to come again. MT Osborne was Stanch republican and for some years was first selectman
 
 General Assembly. His wife died in 1886. A son, Henry s. Osborne, an only child, survives him. The funeral services took place on Tuesday after noon. He was buried in the Ridge Cemetery The pallbearers were Charles Sanford: Stephen Sanford, William H. Hill, J. l.. Blackman, Aaron Read and William H. Louns- bury.

There is a certain young man in the vicinity of Sandy Hook, engaged in instructing the young idea how to shoot, who never loses chance of writing up a joke, or getting one on any of his many friends. The writer has been several times a victim to his pen, and as we have heard nothing from him lately we started to investigate, with the result that we find that instead of getting shot at some one, as is his won't, he is now putting in all his spare time in a nearby city. It cannot be that there is fair friend in the case, as the genial instructor has proven i'm pregnable to the charms of the pretty NewtOwn girls and so our curiosity is aroused and we wonder what the at traction iS-I TX
