A WONDERFUL INVENTION.

It is interesting to note that for tunes are frequently made by the in- ventiun of articles of minor impor- tance. Many of the most popular de- vices are those designed to benefit the people and meet popular conditions, and one of the most interesting of these that has ever been invented is the Dr White Electric comb, patented January l, 1899. These wonderful combs positively cure dandruff, hair falling out, sick and nervous head aches, and when used with Dr Whites Electric hair brush are positively guar anteed to make straight hair curly in 25 days time. Thousands of these electric combs have been sold in vari- ous cities of the Union, and the de- mand is constantly increasing. Our agents are rapidly becoming rich sell ing these combs. They positively sell on sight. Send for sample. Mems size 35c; ladies' 5Oc-(half price while we are introducing them). The Dr White Electric Comb Co.,, Decatur, Ill.

VIEWPOINTS WERE EASY.
EAST DANBURYS BEAT THEM AT BASE
 BALL, SATURDAY, 13 TO 0.

The way the East Danburys beat the NewtOwnS at baseball, Saturday afternoon, was so easy it was like talk ing baby's rattlebox away from him. Thirteen to nothing was the score and the visitors proved such easy marks that the home team would have had runs if they had felt so inclined, but it was one sided enough, as it was.
 Danbury fans who have memories running back 10 or l5 years or so have keen recollections of the teams that used to come over occasionally from Newtown and Sandy Hook and wipe up the earth with Danbury aggrega- tiOns of ball tossers. Consequently, the advent of this team was awaited with considerable wholesome respect. Baseball must have degenerated con- siderably in NewtOwn since the old days, at least, Saturdays game would so indicate.
 The story of the game would be an uninteresting one. It would be simp- ly tale of swatting and running 10 their hearts content on the part of the home team and diSheartening series of goose eggs on the visitors side of the score card. Hardly New But four safe hits were made on that while the East Danburys made IS. The teams lined up as follows:
 East Danbury: D. Fennell, If; w. Clark, 3b; w. Fepnell, 1b; c. Foley, 2; J. StraitOn, ss; H. Hunter, Of; J. Rog- CTS, If; w. Kane, c; G. Straiton, p. 1 Newtown: VIZ mHaugh, Il. lb; Bishop, sss; Tvroh k. TivorrOro n

Why should we care for the dying, That is but springing to life, Why should we shrink from the

Out of the sigh and silence Into the deep-swelling song! Out of the exile and bondage, Into the home-gathered throng. -[Miss Anna M. Botsford, Botsford, Ct., May "A, 1904.
