CHRISTMAS GIFT SEASON
The Eternal Problem of the Present
 Bobs Up Again.

-fN~-A-
 Bobs Up Again.
 Christmas is the gift season of the year, and the attention of the public is already turning to the annual problem, What will be the most acceptable of gifts?" Some will solve the problem by the giving of some merely fancy, orna- mental gift; some will figure value by cost; more will try to devise some strictly useful article, and others still will try to combine usefulness and or nament knowing that utility gives value, ornament delight, and the gift means a token of friendship. In ac- cordance with the last suggestion, it may be said that sewing machine is an almost indispensable necessity in a. home. A sewing machine is certainly useful, a New Home sewing machine can easily be rendered ornamental, and the giver of New Home machine will long be remembered
 With view to enabling puzzled giv- CTS to solve their question satisfacto- rily, the prominent home furnishers, F. J. Kelly & Co, are making a special feature of this splendid New Home sewing machine, and are inviting you to come in and inspect these handsome articles of home furnishings. A com .prehensive guarantee covering ten years and easy payment terms are two features. outside of the construction of the machines themselves, which are at trative to buyers. A ten-year guarara- tee that guarantees Is not obtainable with many gifts, however attractive and costly they may be. A visit to the stores at 817-S23 Grand avenue and S6- 3s Church street should be starred feat ure of your Christmas shopping tour, for there will be found at these stores a vast stock of elegant furniture, includ- ing hundreds of ornamental pieces ex- actly suitable for the Christmas gift season.

 Waterbury. Nov. sO-The sleeping residents of NIiddlebury were aroused this morning at o'clock by the sound of church bells tolling the doom Of the house of Horatio M. Smith, one Of the best known residents of the village. who lived in Middlebury Center. Short ly before the bells were rung a mem Der of MT. Smiths family discovered the flames eating their way around the chimney in the kitchen. The alarm was given and the occupants of the house got out. They saved a few of their belongings.
 The bells caused practically all the able bodied citizens to assemble for the protection of the surrounding prop .erty, if any protection was needed. It was impossible to save the burning house, but a bucket brigade performed valiant service on the barn and this building was rescued from the flames. The house was burned to the ground. The nearest house was across the street, and was owned by Mrs. George Camp. This house was not in any dan- ST at any time, nor was the Congre- gational church nor was the parsonage, which are at the opposite end of the green. The house was worth about $2,5OO. The loss is partially covered by insurance.
