A DOLL WEDDING.

A DOLL WEDDING.
 ? A picturesque novelty, by way of entertainment for few of her most intimate friends, was doll wedding given by Miss Catharine Hurd, last week Friday. or course all the dolls invited made every effort to attend. Miss Helen Keeler of Bridgewater was the proud mamma of the bridesmaid. while Miss Janette Sanford of Kings ton, N. Y., was equally as proud of the little flower girl. = The bride was gOwned in white lawn with lace trim mingS cut with train, and wore white satin sash with corsage bouquet. and veil reaching to train. The maid was gOwned in the same material as the bride and both looked very charming. The bride was the recipient of d few presents. Miss Emily Sanford of Bridgeport acted as clergyman and asked the bride if she would behave herself and not flirt with anyone else, to which she mOdestly answered "Yes." Miss Eva Pulver presented the brides loaf, a small cake artiStical- ly trimmed with cut flowers. After the pretended ceremony light lunch was served to the small guests. Just before the party dispersed for their homes, each guest was presented with a souvenir stick pin in honor. of the Oc- casfon. All went away with happiness beaming from their faces, and no doubt one afternoon will be cherished in each child's memory long after she has attained womanhOOd.

MIR KNOWLES SUCCESS.


 F. w. Knowles of New Milford, who owns the Bard homestead, which has been in the family 15O years, situated one mile east of the village on the main road to Bridgewater, and now known as Maple Shade farm, is one of the busiest men in town, notwithstanding the great fire. Last April he secured the agency for the Comet force and spray pump and he is hardly able to supply the demand. He has 20 men working for him and takes in four counties in Massachusetts, two in New York, and Litchtield and Fairfield in this state. The pump is almost an in- dispensable article on farm. It is used for forcing all kinds of pipes, whitewashing outbuildings, washing windows, wagons, etc., and does all kinds of spraying. It throws water 50 feet. He also gives the fly kill re- ceipt, which can be made for lOc per gallon, and the pump puts it on. The fire chemlca] receipt that the company gave $1, ,OOO for also goes with it, making one as we'll protected against fire as though they lived in city. The pump has a working principle peculiar to itself only, and is not like any other pump made. It consists of two hollow tubes or cylinders, one working within the other, with a brass valve in the bottom of each tube; (the inside cylin- der answers for both pump chambers and plunger). When the plunger is raised the upper valve closes and the lower valve opens, and when the plum ger is lowered the upper valve opens and the lower valve closes; one valve always working exactly opposite from the other, making a perfect double action and the stream always cOntlnu- ous, In the Comet sprayerS there IS combined simplicity, efficiency and durability and MT Knowles challenges any pump in the world to do the same work, to compare in beauty of appear ance, as it IS so simple and easy in management that child can operate it. Exactly the same work may be done with the Comet sprayerS as with sprayers which cost $15 to $2O each.
