LORD MONBODDO AND SOME OF HIS cox
IEMPoRAIIES By William Knight IL. i.
Svo. PIP. 5l4 T. +. Duton X co.
A picturesque figure in the literary society Of
Edinburgh at the md of the eighteenth century
was James Burnett, Lord Monboddo. He a
law lord whose fame as a barrister was chiefly
derived from his connection with the great
Hamilton-Douglas case. 1t was as somewhat
fantastic philosopher, a scholar, lover of clas-
sical learning and a kindly host that he made
the deepest impression upon his time. His for
mdable works on The Origin and Progress Of
Language" and on Ancient METAPHYSICS now
appeal only to special students and not greatly
to them; but the general reader viii find much
to interest him in the character and career Of
the eccentric Scotchman who foreshadowed the
doctrine Of the evolution Of man. He held, Pro-

BUYERS, ATTENTION |

Don't be bamboozled into going out of town to buy your >dry goods, your furniture, your groceries or your knick- knacks. Waterbury merchants have just as good goods and at as low a price as New Haven or Hartford mer- chants. The business men should work with might and main to keep trade at home. The Hampson-Sellew Co has made a move in the right direc- ton, as a reading of their ad in an- other column proves. The business men should spend few dollars extra in advertising at this time. 4 stitch in time saves nine, and few dollars spent now may put money in the tills of the home merchants.

COFFEE

has it's charms We've always claim ed that coffee was not only a bracer In the morning, but 1t also had other virtues which we felt little timid in making known. Now we refer you to last Sundays New York Herald, page five, column two; there you will read where a lady one night dreamt that Martinique was being totally destroy ed by volcanic eruption and that thou sands upon thousands of human lives were being lost. She then awoke ana in the morning informed her husband she must go back to America and gave him her reason. "Bosh,'' said the hus- band, tits the COFFEE you've been drinking" She admitted that, but she was bound on going home. She can now thank her stars, for the dream came true and thousands upon thousands have been called to their last home. Now, the terrible catas-. trophe which has taken place is cer- tainly an event which is appalling. But this lady having this particular dream. which unfortunately came true and sine laying it to drinking coffee, aronses our curiosity regarding coffee. If it's true that coffee was the cause of her finding out what events were to take place we suggest that every one should drink coffee so that you can tell what's going to happen in the near future. The kind we sell will make you dream because we have dreams ourselves once in a while and invariably we strike the nail on the head. Our coffees are always fresh roasted. our teas are new season and our 27-cent butter is the nice new made kind: look at our specials with one pound of baking powder.

ROAD WILL 40.
New Broad Gauge Line Necessary
to Welfare of Florence.

1t islearned upon good authority
that the apparent indefinite com
mencement on the Florence, Victor
& Cripple Greek railroad is to be
taken in no wise as a meaning
that the line will not be built.
Everything at either end of the
proposed road looks promising
and tits fully expected by those
who know that long before the
summer season is gone the build
ers will be actively at work.
This line is almost necessity
for this section of the country.
Two standard gauge lines running
into the district from the other
side of the mountains makes it
almost impossible for narrow
guage line from this end to com
pete and it has proven in recent
months that it is not success.
With a broad gauge line on the
survey made all this will be chang
ed and its entrance into Florence
will bring back the days that were.
There is to be mass meeting
in the city hall next Thursday
evening at 8 O'Clock by those in
terested in organizing and main

matter was talked over short
