laid out and nicely cared for, there are
rustic seats placed about the grounds
and down in the valley is pond where
boating can be INDUCED in if desired.

of Bethel and ElmWood, returning to

THROUGH REDDING TO PUTNAM
MEMORIAL PARK.

THROUGH REDDING TO PUTNAM
MEMORIAL PARK.
That all of the pleasant drives about
NeWtOWn do not lie to the north and
east, is testified to by those whose good
fortune it has been to take the drive by
way of Redding to Putnam Memorial
Park, which is situated about half way
between Redding Center and Bethel.
Leaving Newtown by way of Sugar
street, the road plunges Immediately
into the woods, whose cooling shade is
most grateful should the day prove a
warm one. IL is rather lonely road
30 Redding after leaving Sugar street,
there being only few houses at Hope
we'll, in all the six miles. But it is not
unintereSting, forat many places there
are pleasant bits of scenery, and more
lovely drive could not be selected dur
ing the time that the laurel is in
bloom, for it grows in great abundance
afraid Of steep hills it will pay to visit
Redding Ridge first, for it is a slightly
place and about as high up as its
neighbor, Redding Center, on the
opposite hill top, although between
the two places there is great gulf Tor
rather valley and the hills leading
from one place to the other are un-
usually steep. Taking the north road
from Redding Center, drive of about
three miles brings us to the Putnam
Memorial Park, which is the principal
attraction of this drive. The state has
expended considerable amount of
money in making this place attractive.
Massive stone gatewayS are at either
entrance to the park and dotted here
and there are monuments and little
log cabins which mark spots Of historic

In order to remove any doubt that
may have arisen in the minds of some
that the first purchase of land from
the Pootatuck Indians in what is now
the township of Newtown bears date
Of July %, 1705, we give below from
our Town Records copy of a deed to
that effect. The names of the l. In
dams who signed the instrument, to-
gether with their marks, are SO indS-
tlnct that no attempt was made to
copy them for this occasion, and as
they have 20 acquaintances living in
NeWtOwn at the present time, that
seems good excuse for the omission.
The deed was given in the reign Of her
Majesty, Queen Ann.

nected with the celebration. He has
much pride in his home at NewtOwn.
He was pleased to show the scribe the
garden, which is in flOuriShiDg con-
dit1on. t appears, in the early spring,
that the frost several times nipped
the fast-growing vegetables. The gar
dener was in despair, wishing to make
a good showing when Mr. Ronaids re-
turned from abroad. He conceived
the idea of using the droppingS VIII ich
are scraped from under the hen rOoSts
every day and mixing that with a little
earth. He found that everything
grew SO much faster than when using
other dressings, and now the garden
is yielding beautifully. Corn that was
planted with common manure is two
weeks behind that where the hen coop
scrapings were used. A farmer, see.
ing the garden, asked how he made it
thrive so we'll, and was surprised to
learn what was used, saying he threw
his scrapings away. In the coop men
toned, under the three roosts, is
platform five feet wide, keeping the
Sanded floor clean. which is most es-

SchiIIar's Mean Revenge.

When Schiller was boy at school
he was tormented by a Swiss tutor
named Kuplig who came from the
Grisons canton Years later, when
the poet WIZ THE Ro. Jers," he re.
venged himself on Kuplig and the
Grisons by introducing this little
speech: ITO be scavp you must
have genius. Moreover, special eli
mate Is needed for the growth of
scamps, and to prove this ! recon-
mend you to visit the Grisons canton.
1t is the veritable Athens of modern
rascality." In the later editions OF
The Robbers" this quaint pit Of spleen
does not appear. 1t is suggested that
Schiller was not moved to expunge
it by any remorseful feeling, but by a
very forcible protest from the resi-
dents of the abused canton against
this calumny.

INDIAN TREATMENT OF SICK.

superstitlous Ceremony That Is Often
Last Resort.
In answer to inquiries as to the
meaning Of the word it was explained
that a pachofsha is feast and a part
OF the incarnation and superstitious
ceremony conducted over the sick by
the lower class of ignorant Indians.
When a man is thought to be sick
enough to require the services OF q
doctor he is put into a. hut, and for
three days no one except the doctor
sees him. The doctor goes into the
woods and gathers herbs, from when
he prepares potion for the sick man
and then keeps a lonely vigil with him.
At the end Of the third day, If the pa
tient is not Improved, the order is CIV
en- to prepare pachofsha Corn and
meat, either beef, pork or game, are
put in a large kettle and stewed until
the corn is soft. @"$s
All the relatives Of the sick man are
entitled to attend, and they gather
around the kettle for the feast. The
sick man is brought O. and served
first. He is fed as much. as his stom-
ach can hold, and the others then turn
in and devour the remainder of the
stew. When this is concluded bon
fire is built and lighted, and the crowd
circles around and dances to the tune
of a weird chant. After this, if the
sick man does not show signs of get
ting better, nothing more is done for
him, and he dies or gets well by act of

Balzac flattered himself more than

But he made sad mistake on one
occasion. A lady brought him an ex-
tract from the exercise book of r.

an opinion az to the youngsters char

whether the child was her own. An.

the exercise carefully and delivered

pronounced SO severely was one of
his own which had been discovered
hidden away between the leaves of an
old lesson book.
