SUMMER COMFORT.

Thus far the summer has been most unusual in that there have been few really warm days. But prophets who lay some claim to knowledge of the weather say that August and Septem- Der are to be real summer months. Certain it is that we have had taste of real summer the last few days, and time has turned mems thoughts to the question of comfortable dress in hot weather. Meigs & Co. have been talking in their advertisements about the best thing about hot weather wear. They say that wool crash makes ad
 mirable suits for lounging and knock about wear for just such a summer as we have had so far. The wool crash suits they show are handsome and un- like the thin suits we have been used to, the coats keep their shape, as do all of the thin coats sold by Meigs x Co. This is brought about by trick in the making. For real hot weather, linen crash is light and cool. It possesses the advantages of being washable and cost ing very little. Flannel has its devo- tees-men who like a good deal of style in their thin suits. The flannel suits shown by Meigs & Go. are all that style loving men could desire, both in cut and fit. A wide variety of light anc dark shades is shown. Serge, of course is the ideal fabric for general summer wear, and Meigs & Co.,, as usual, show splendid lines of serge suits, in blue
 black and steel gray, guaranteeing fas
 color and long wear. The collection o

LOCAL BASEBALL ENTHUSIASM . YANNIaANs WE'LL WARMED BY
 NEWTOWN.

Last Saturday the Yannigan ball team of Bridgeport journeyed to the Newtown Fair Grounds with the de- termination to do the Newtown team at baseball, but they went the way of the previous five teams here, namely, down to defeat, and that by score of 13 to in favor of NewtOwn. Warner pitched the first five innings and Nich- ols the last four. The entire Newtown team made three errors and 15 base hits, against Yannigans 10 errors and six base hits. After the fourth inning the game did not prove as interesting inasmuch as the NewtOwn's had a walkover. The running catches by Adolph Schielke were feature of the game. He captured four difficult flies. Saturday of this week the New town team journeys to Lime Rock to play the Lime Rocks and Saturday of next week, namely August 23, NewtOwn plays the St JOsephs of Bridgeport at Newtown.

It corrects inability to hold water and scalding pain in passing 1t, or bad effects following use of liquor. wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go often during the day. and to get up many times during the night: The mild and the extra ordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.
