50 Cottage St, .Melrose, Mass.
Dear Sir:
Ever since I was in the army I had
more or less kidney trouble and within
the past year it became so severe and
complicated that I suffered everything
and was much alarmed-my strength and
power was fast leaving me. I saw an ad-
vertisement of Swamp-Root and wrote
asking for advice. I began the use of the
medicine and noted a decided improve
ment after taking Swamp-Root only a
short time
Il continued its use and am thankful to
say that I am entirely cured and strong.
In order to be very sure about this 1 had
a doctor examine some of my water today
and he pronounced it all right and in
splendid condition.
Il know that your Swanp-Root is pure
~ vegetable and does not contain any
harmful drugs Thanking you for my
complete recovery and recommending

CORRUPT PRACTICES ACT.

Mr' Fox and the Bridgeport Election
 To-Day.
 The following letter appeared in last evenings Bridgeport Standard;
 New Haven, Conn.,, Nov. 6, 1905. To the Editor of The Standard: The election in Bridgeport Tuesday interests others, some outside of Bridgeport, as good opportunity to test theanew corrupt practices act and it's efficiency in bringing about clean elections It was framed to secure an honest expression of the peoples will, free from bribery, and to make it possi- ble for man to win public office with moderate expense. .5sssS
 earnestly appeal to the citizens of Bridgeport to cooperate in the strict enforcement of the law. What is most needed is the continued presence at the polls that day of citizens, vigilant and earnest to detect the corrupt use of money in any way.
 The new law makes it easy to bring offenders to justice. Any citizen of Bridgeport who has goon presumptive evidence of violations of the law can bring petition for an election court, which shall probe the matter to the bottom. Note that in such court the two judges had absolute powers, ii the find that candidate has been guilty of corrupt practices, to nullify the election. dismiss the elected candi- date from office. and disquafify him for four years.
 I shall be glad to. spare the expense of such petition with any defeated can didate pr citizen who. has good prima facie evidence of corrupt practices.
 If any one, wl1 1ogats good evidence of this sort on election day, d3es not care to make the light himself, but will reveal it to me. I will see that it is thoroughly sifted and acted upon.
 In a democracy, the electorate, which is the fountain of power, should be kept as free from taint as possible, and I hope that many citizens in Bridgeport, high or low, will cooperate to that end next Tuesday.

REsouRcEFuL WOMAN.

They were discussing shocks and jolts in the dairy lunch room the other day, and one of th4 newspaper men contributed his experience. Never found your wife running a candy butchers cart on Seventh street, did your" he inquired of the crowd. Well, that is what happened to me the other day. Found she was making a pretty good saleswoman, too. I was sailing down the street the other day when found the head of my honshold chape- roniftg one of the aforesaid candy carts, and when I had picked myself up, after dropping dead with astonish- ment, she asked me if I wanted some Turkish delight or peanut brittle, Just about that time the candy man came back, and blessed if she did not hand him over a quarter in dimes and nickles that she had taken in while he was gone,
 When I wanted to know the why foreness of it, she explained calmly that she had asked him where a store was. that she was looking for, and he obligingly went over to the next corner LU dSh d IlLG, somebody came along and wanted some candy, and as she said she thought it was 8 shame that he should miss the sale on her account, she sold a nickel bag of candy that was already done up oh the cart. I don't know if it was sympathy foe a lady reduced to that sort of, work, but people scanned to throw trade her way, and before the Dago had gotten back, she had sold three five-cent bags and a. ten-cent bag, and turned over the quarter to the proprietor of the cart. Search me if you can ever tell what a woman will be up to next, but I have come to the conclusion that if get out of a job I will borrow enough to set up candy cart and let her support the family. If she made sales at the rate of twenty-five cents in three minutes and half, she would make more in an eight+hour day than do, and that is no joke, either Washington Star.

LONDON'S IDLE SEE BALFOUR
RAGGED AND HUNGRY WOMEN
 CALL ON THE PREMIER.

 Brothers or There Will he BIOOdshed
 MT. BaIfOur Sympathetic, but Says
 He Can Do NOthIng-At Close of His
 "Speech of Despair" Women Invite
 Him to Come Out and Live Among
 Them.
 London, Nov. 6.-The desperate con dition of the poor of London was brought to the notice of Premier Bal four this afternoon by a remarkable deputation of the wives, sisters and mothers of the unemployed, who did not hesitate to tell the premier that unless something is speedily done to lessen their sufferings there will be bloodshed.
 Don't forget that hungry men are desperate men," said one of the speak CTS. All had the same tale to tell of husbands out of work and starving wives and children. The pinched faces and taftered clothing of the women, some of whom had babies in their arms, bore eloquet testimony of the truth of their complaints. Enormous crowds of women from all parts of 1cyI, Ia stra fe< behind the deputation, which Mir. Bal four received at the office of the local government board.
 The "MaTseillaise" was heard az the procession advanced, perhaps the first time it ever was heard under such cir cumstances in the streets of London.
 Only thirty of the women were ad- mttted to the presence of MT. Balfour. The premier was very sympathetic. He acknowledged that the evil was very real, but had little to suggest in the way of alleyiation, except through the expression of hope that public charity would come to the aid of the unem- ployed. He deprecated the socialistic suggestion that industries should be started at the public expense for the benefit of the unemployed, as calculat- ed to destroy the springs of enterprise and energy of the nation.
 At the close of Mir. Balfour' Speech of despair" as the delegates describ- ed it, Mrs. Crooks, wife of William Crooks, a labor party member of the house of commons, and several other women, excitedly invited MT. Balfour to come and live among them for a few months. The premier remarked that he was quite aware that nothing he had said could be other than dis appointing. They had his genuine sym pathy and he felt most acutely the magnitude of the evil from which they were suffering.
 A mass meeting of the wotaen was held at o'clock in the afternoon to hear the report of the delegation. MT. speeches. MT. Crooks said that MT. Balfour's reply to the delegation was greeted with a storm of misses. MT. Crooks said that they had started an agitation which would not cease until every man who wanted work was SUD- piled with sufficient to support his wife and children. The speaker urged his hearers to continue the agitation. He said that a revolution in England would not be behind a revolution in Russia in securing the demands of the people. <,
 The meeting unanimously adopted a resolution to continue to fight for the employment of the unemployed and the meeting broke up amid uproarious scenes and the singing of the Mar seillaise."

by the inimitable Billy B. Van as Patsy Bolivar" the errand boy, and Rose Beaumont, who very ably takes the part of "Gloriana," the leading lady of the "Glorlana Bird Musical company, and are ably supported by Florine Sweetman, Edith Hart, Flor ence Brooks, Clement Bevins, Charlie Saxon, Ali. G. Prarce, Frank Evans, and a dozen others equally trustwor- thy. Thte comedy might be termed one continuous shower of funmaking, which keeps the audience in roars of laughter fom its start until it's finish. As a funmaker Billy Van is, of course, host in himself, and keeps the, audi ence in fits by his comical antics and witty sayings. Rose Beaumont, in her up-to-date songs and dances, was an other successful feature of the pro gramnls, and one which at once won the favor of the audience. who were not slow to appreciate her work.
 The Church city quartette, compos- ed of Misses O'Sullivan, Bohlman, Campbell and Wilson, were one of the many good things thar took with the auulSI4CG, anu us WOEh were IGpSstt eu- ly encored. The chorups is one of the best drillsd that has been seen here this season, and is composed of a bevy of winsome young ladies. Their exc cptions in the military dances, the Spanish and the Irish pallets, were clever and sprightly, and brought forth perfect hurricane of applause that was only appeased by repeated en- tries
 The costumes used are smart and pretty and this, together with the many popular songs rendered the spirited nu- sical numbers makes the errand boy a successful and enjoyable entertainment that is bound to please the most fas- tidious who may go to see it. The performance will berepeated again to- night and Wednesday matinee and evening. Seats can be had in advance at the box office.
 HOW HEARTS ARE BROKEN. It will be a pleasure to hear that Langdon Mccormick, the author, has added another work to his list of suc- Cesses. His last is a. four-act melodra- ma entitled How Hearts Are Broken and deals with life in small village on the coast of Maine, where a young girl has been duped and wronged by an interruptions man who deserts her and her babe. She has hard time of it with an invalid mother and the un- friendliness of her neighbors, and when she is finally tried for the murder of her child her cup of bitterness seems full. Through the kind-hearted Ken lucky lawyer who pleads her cause she is freed and eventually the wicked man is brought to punishment by the aid of an old musician, Blind Bill. The play is well cast and the production carried by the organization is complete in every detail, and will be seen at the New Haven theater for three nights and Saturday matinee commencing next Thursday.
