Finch prin- cipal of the school presided. The first number was delightful piano .se- lection by Miss Eulalia Madden; Il reading entitled Rejected" by Miss Lillian Bowes was one of the delicious treats of the session. Miss Mary Mad den gave an interesting history or the class and brief sketch of each mem Der. Miss Elsie Delaney entertained with piano solo. Miss Anna Bannon made great hit in telling about the auction of forty bachelors and Miss MdFy McCdrtny Iolu what the IuLur6 had in store for each member. Each and every number was loudly applaud ed by those present. After the exer- cises ice cream and cake were served. Dancing followed. It was a very pleas ant gathering and the members saw with sadness the approaching of the hour for parting. The room was pret- hly decorated with roses, ferns and carnations.
 The senior class presented to the school beautiful bas-relief of Carya tides. It occupies a conspicuous po- sition on the third floor opposite the normal room.

UPsoN, SINGLETON BALLOONS.
Letters Received From Hallville and
 Algonquin By Finders.

Algonquin By E1nuerS.
 Last Saturday during the noon hour the well known clothing firm, Upson, Singleton S Go, sent half dozen bal looms up in the air. To each balloon was attached tag, on which were words to the effect that the finder of the balloon would receive d suit of clothes, a straw hat, necktie or some other article of clothing by presenting the tag at the firms store on Bank street. Nothing was heard about the balloons until the latter part of this week when the members of the firm were rather surprised to receive letters from persons in Canada stating that the balloons had been found up there. One balloon was found near Ottawa about 6 o'clock Saturday afternoon. Tn the course of six hours the balloon had traveled 300 miles or more The other balloon was found in Algonquin in On- tdrio on Sunday morning. That theI above is no pipe dream is proven by the letters which the firm received and are published below:
 Hallville. June 16. 19o3 Dear Sirs-I picked up small bal loon here on Saturday, June 13. about 6 o'clock in the evening. We live 30l miles from the city of Ottawa So you will have an idea about how far itl came.

BROOKLYN BRIEFS


 Frank Johnson, student at the Ottawa university, is spending the summer vacation at his home on John street.
 Closing exercises were held by the pupils of St Patrick's parochial school yesterday and Tuesday. On Thursday many parents of the little pupils were present and were delighted with the exercises which proved very interesting.
 At the weekly prayer meeting at the Third Congregational church last night, Thomas B. Walker, ex-superin- tendent of Holmes, Booth & Haydens concern, gave an interesting account of his four months trip to California, the Hand of flowers" from which he recently returned. The travels have already been fully described in the Democrat by MT Walker. It is need less to say that the account of the trip was much enjoyed by those present.
 This warm and dry weather is apt to make persons dry and thirsty.W When persons feel thus they should at once seek a remedy for the benefit Of their health. The best remedy is those temperance drinks which are sold at A. 0. Walkers drug store. Here the finest soda is sold, the best of fruit juices being used. The ice cream soda is delicious.

Real Estate and Rents
O'NEILL'S BULLETIN,

About year ago was offered a po- sition as salesman for a western min ing company. All I had to do was to sell the stock and get the money for it. All my purchasers had to do was to pay the assessments and wait for the rich vein of ore that the gentlemanly engineer expected to strike any minute. If my memory serves me, the company were so close to striking fabulous wealth.
 What am selling Is real estate right here in Waterbury, where you can keep your eye on it. My real estate is not on the outskirts of Kalamazoo, Mich.

Your advertising should reflect the spirit, the enterprise and the attrac- tive features of your store as truly as a mirror would do. By and through your advertising you project glimpse of your business into the homes of the city. It is bad policy to make this reflection too modest; it is suicide to make 1t lack fidelity.
