that time to the present day the story OF the
river has been calm and uneventfu it's
course from Hartford to the sea.
The men from Plymouth and the Bay had
'cOme TO stay" and 'in scarcely more than two
years three OF the settlements from the Bay
colony-HartfOrd. Windsor and Wethersfeld-
had seeded from Massachusetts and established
the first genuine democracy in America" Two
years later deputies from the river towns, by
this time largely increased in number. assem-
bled in convention at Hartford and adopted the
Fundamental Orders OF Connecticut" the first
Of all written constitutions of representative gov
ernment. From the narrative of David Pieter-
zen de Vries. master Of artillery in the service
of Holland. who visited the river, we learn that
the Hartford folk lived soberly as a rule. They
drink only three times at a meal" he wrote,
and whoever drinks himself drunk they tie 10
a post and whip him. as they do thieves In HOl-
land" Upon a foundation of such sobriety, and
animated by a determination to maintain their
independent status and to preserve the home
steads which they had founded in the wilder
ness-thOugh with little regard, perhaps. to the
rights real assumed, of others-the settlers
opposed a strong front to their savage foes in
many valiant encounters. During an expedition
in the PequOt Wars led by Captain Joe Under
hill and Lion Gardner. note was made of va
rious special prOvidences'' and escapes from
death by the Indians arrows. "a unique case"
cited by the author was that of Lieutenant
Bull, who had arrow shot into hard piece
Of cheese, having no other armour; upon which
Captain Mason shrewdly remarked that it might
verify the Old saying, "a little armour would
serve il a man knew where to place it" -

Mr. Bacon devotes several chapters OF his
book to the "Romances of Navigation" asso-
cated with the river. The many falls and
rapids in the stream, while affording splendid
water power for manufacturing industries, were
equally obstacles to the free passage of boats,
and early efforts were made to overcome them
The Connecticut was, in fact. the first river in
the country to be improved by canals, and one
of its sons John Fitch, the first man ito
applv steam successfully to the propulsion of
vessels through water" Two hundred miles up
the river, in the Vermont village of Fairlee, is
deposited the model of the engine Of the first
American steamboat propelled by paddle wheels,
invented by another Connecticut Valley man.
Captain Samuel Morey. Fitch's first steam
boat, a crude affair. propelled by paddles oper-
ated by a steam engine made it's first feeble
essay on the Delaware, twenty years before Full
toms Clerrnont was put on the Hudson. Moreys
! first boat was launched on the Connecticut four
teen years before Fulton's success. Efforts to
navigate the river by means Of these primitive
! craft were long retarded by the curious neglect
| of their builders to make them narrow enough
of beam to pass through the locks Of the canals.

DIED SUDDENLY
 OF HEART DISEASE.

How frequently does a head line simi- lar to the above greet uS in the news papers. The rush, push and strenuous ness of the American people has strong tendency to lead up to valvular and other affections of the heart. attended by ir- regular action. palptation, dizziness, smothered sensations and other distress ing symptoms.
 Three of the prominent ingredients of which Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis covery is made are recommended by some of the leading writers on Mdterid .hedica for the cure of just such cases. Golden Seal root, for instance. is said by the UNITED STATES DIsPENSATORY, d stand ard authority, "to impart tone and n- creased power to the hearts action Numerous other leading authorities rep resent Golden Seal as an unsurpassed tonic for the muscular system in general, and as the heart is almost wholly cem- posed of muscular tissue. it naturally follows that it must be greatly strength ened by this superb, general tonic. But probably the most important ingredient of Golden Medical Discovery so far as its marvellous cures of vaivular and other affections of the heart are con cerned. is Stone root, or COiiHS0flid C'Oft Prof. Wm. Paine, author of Paine's Epitomy of Medicine. says of it:

He however gradually recovered under the influence of Gollnsonin medicinal principle extracted from stone root. and is now attending to his business. Heretofore physicians knew of no remedy for the removal Of 50 distressing and So dan gerous a malady. With them it was all guess work. and it fearfully warned the afflicted that death Was near at hand. Col linsonin unquestionably affords relief in such cases. and i'll most instances effects cure.'
 Stone root is also recommended by Drs. Hale and Ellingwood. of Chicago for valvular and other diseases of the heart The latter says; It is d heart tonic of direct and permdHeHt influence
