ings may be paraphrased happily to ex-
press the condition in which the town
Of Woodbury., of all the rs towns Of
Litchfeld, finds itself.
Says the Waterbury American,
which penetrates, enlightens and en-
| tertains the good people of that hill
town: "Our venerable but vigorous
neighbOr, Woodbury-a town with
fame and history-has contributed
many good men to public service in
years past, without exhausting the
self and adds strength to both state
tickets by giving one of it's citizens to
each. Judge Huntington, who is can
| didate for secretary of state on the
democratic ticket, is held in Affection
ate esteem by all who know him, eve
ry one of whom will want to vote for
him; and Mr. Mitchell, candidate for
comptroller on the republican ticket,
is a younger man of creditable achieve
ment and promising future, who is
sure to keep up the honorable tradi-
lions of the old town which Mr. Hunt
| ington has done much to establish.
We take pleasure in extending to
Woodbury. our admlrlng compliments
and to her two worthy SONS our good
wishes.
In other words, Woodbury. is to be
represented at Hartford, in state de-
partment, for the next two years,
whichever Of the two old parties wins
out at the polls. That is equally true
of the towns Of New Haven and Har t.
ford, but it is not unusual in large
centers of population to have it's voting
population tempted in that way.
counts itself equal to the task of pro-
yiding both parties with responsible
men for responsible Office, and is taken
at it's word, it becomes correspondence
ly more interesting. Woodbury. is 23O
years old and has population Of near
ly 1000 souls. 1t is one of the small
towns Of the state which has held it's
own in first rate shape for the past
hundred odd years. It does not num-
Der as many people to-day as it did in
1855, but it numbers more than it did
in 1890 or 1870. In 1774, upon the &C.
casion Of it's first centennial, it pos
seSsed population of nearly 5000.
During the hundred years which fol-
lowed, its sons, at least many of them,
yielded to the temptation to go down
into the level plains, where the cities
were building, and it's daughters we're
carried there by the strong men of
commerce who needed their society
and help. 1t appears to have reached
it's new normal condition early in the
last century, for since then the popu-
lation, though experiencing ups and
downs, has remained practically the
same. @zs 'sa"s
1t is fine thing to have one Of the
old towns of Connecticut thus put
spurs to its ambition, and seek COM
parison with the cities. So long as
the Connecticut town, whether locat-
ed in the hills of Litchtield county, or
the valleys of New Haven county, pos
sesses the men to fill acceptably the
office of secretary Of state or comp
troller, we need not weep ourselves in
to Mysteries over it's moral and intel
lectual future. Score one for old
Woodbury., say we, with it's history,
it's beautiful center thoroughfare and
it's hospitable tavern. Hurrah for it's
large agricultural and manufacturing
interests. Woodbury. is a sure winner.

June 9, 16, %, and 80 are the next
dates for great coach excursions to St.
Louis via Pennsylvania Railroad on ac-
count of the Louisiana Purchase Exposi-
ton The rates for these excursions
have been fixed at such low figure that
they afford those of limited means an op-
portunity of seeing the Worlds Fair at
an exceptionally small cost. The un-
usual success attending the first Pennsyl-
vania Railroad excursion indicates that
these will be very popular.
Special trains of standard Pennsylvania
Railroad coaches of the most modern
pattern will be run on the above mention
ed dates from New York, Philadelphia,
Harrisburg, Altoona, and Pittsburg. di-
rectly through to St. Louis with ample
stops for meals at convenient hours.
Each train will be in charge of a Tourist
Agent of the Pennsylvania Railroad.
The rates will be the same as for the first
excursion, May 10, 500 from New York,
$3.50 from Philadelphia, and proper
tionate rates from other stations.
Specific information regarding time OF
special train and connections, and rates
from principal stations east OF Pittsburg,
will be announced shortly

A Political Development.

There is considerable talk just now
of Elk county having third political
ticket in the field this fall, and we
understand that J. II. Bennett, the
well-known Ridgway painter, has
been selected as the candidate for
Sheriff We have not yet learned who
the other candidates will be, but Mr..
Bennett admits that he is in it and in it
to stay till the polls close. THERE'S no
denying the fact that Mr.. Bennett is a
hustler and he has very wide ac-
quaintance throughout the county. He
is also quite familiar with some of the
tricks with which this county has been
carried in the past, and might be
able to make things very interesting.

Triumphs ofModern Surgery,

Wonderful things are done for the
human body by surgery. Organs are
taken out and scraped and polished and
put back, or they may be removed entire
ly, bones are spliced, pipes take the place
of diseased sections of veins; antiseptic
dressings are applied to wounds, bruises,
and like injuries before inflammation sets
in, which causes them to heal without
maturation and in one-third the time re-
quired by the old treatment. Chamber
lain's Pain Balm acts on the same prin-
ciple. 1t is an antiseptic and when ap-
piled to such injuries, causes them to
heal very quickly. 1t also allays the
pain and soreness. Keep a bottle of
Pain Balm in your home and it will save
you time and money, not to mention the
inconvenience and suffering which such
injuries entail. For sale by Jno. L.
