SCHOOLS ARE READY
Tuesday VIII Be the Opening
 Day in All the Schools.

The public schools in this city will reopen on Tuesday, all the buildings having received thorough overhaul ing. Although Superintendent of Schools B. w, Tinker. who has been working the past couple of weeks getting in readiness for the opening week, expects a big increaoe !n the attendance. he is of the opinion that the new scholars will be well taken care of. Several new rooms will be opened in the Brooklyn and north end districts. where the increase is expected to be the largest Although the graduating class from the gram mar schools last June was the big. gest in years, Crosby high will with out doubt find room for the fresh- men, although 1t is likely to be taxed to it's capacity. School Inspector Michael Slagin has made tour of the entire system and says that ev- erything is in tip top shape for the opening on Tuesday.

In Geer's directory, Hartford has the distinction of Lav- ing the most complete encyclopedia of any city in the world. In no other similar publication Is so much infor. nation of a local interest printed. The Hartford directory is sought for the libraries in many cities on account of the mass of subjects covered.

The population for the city. estimated on the ratio of 2,O65 persons to each name In the di- rectory, the ratio used for many years, Is 1O6,04S.

Some Stray Leaves from Reporter's
 Note Book.
 Some strange things occur in con- nection with Uncle Sam's postal ar engagements. A few days ago man received a paper that was mailed to him in Greenfield, Mass, in Sep tember, 1884. The paper was twen- ty-two and a half years on the way.
 One of the curious phenomena of geography is found on the southern coast of the island of Cephalonla, In Greece. It is stream of salt water which for an unknown period has left the almost tideless sea and flowed in land with a volume sufficient to fur- nish water power to two mills. For some generations the mills were operated by undershot wheels, which took their power from this little river of ocean water. They supplied four to the people of the island until re- gently, but now they have been dis mantled, owing to the completion of larger and better equipped mills.
 In certain western town there lives a couple, both of whom, before their marriage, had been widowed She had been left with four children to face the battle of life, while he had three to take care of. To-day they have ten children running around the house, and the mother has a hard time to keep peace in the family Usually the trouble is between the children of the former marriages, but the other day things were some what different, and the woman knew not what to do in the case, SO she rushed out of the house and shouted to her husband: "Oh, John, come in quick; your children and my child ren are whipping our children.
 q have been engaged in the prac- tice of law a good many years,' says Judge s. s. Urmy. of Topeka, Kan, ''and the most humorous thing I ever saw, In a courtroom was In Topeka. One day an old negro was being tried and demanded a trial by jury of his peers. He could neither read nor write, and the lawyer insisted that the jury, to be his peers. as required by law, must be unable to read or write too. To avoid dispute agreed to It, but we had some time finding twelve men who could neither read nor write. But we did find them and the case went to trial. Before the jury re- tired, I took two pieces of paper and wrote guilty on one piece and not guilty on the other. and instructed the foreman of the jury to destroy the one he did not wish used and return the other when the jury reached verdict. The jury was out only a few minutes when 1t came in. The fore man handed me piece of paper with the word guilty written on 1t. Well, gentlemen, you find him guilty, dc youy I asked. No, sah. jedge, no sah, we done found him not guilty" spoke up one of the jurymen. Then be ad. ded with disgust: I tole that fool nIgger he was tearin' up the wrong piece of paper"

To-day we want to talk to you about 1fcatarrh cures"

edy that we know is right--that we can back up with all our reputation for hon. esty and square-dealing.
 And wouldn't you rather buy that kind of a remedy? Wouldn't you rather hold us responsible than to hold no one responsible? We are right here, right where you can get at us every day in the week, right where one false move on our part will bring upon us your condem- nation, the loss of your friendship. your patronage, your influence. Can we afford to tell you anything that you win learn later is not absolutely true7
 Are you not safer in taking our word for the merits of an article, than you are to rely on the printed statement of pa- tent medicine manufacturer. whom you never even saw and probably never wills
 Common sense most emphatically tells you that we cannot afford to depart one hairs breadth from the rigid truth.
 None of us can deny that there is sucH a disease known as "catarrh." Those who have it, or who have had if, know that 1t is one of the hardest diseases to cure.
 Perhaps the worst thing about catarrfi is it's prevalence. Almost everyone especially in a climate like ours-has catarrh in some form or another. That is what has made the "catarrh cure" busi- ness so profitable. There are so many thousands of cases of the disease and iti is so hard to cure, that the patent medicine manufacturers have reaped harvest in preparing remedies that appeal to this large class of sufferers.
 One of the most serious things about catarrh is that 1t breaks down the sys- tenn, so that the sufferer becomes prey to other diseases. This fact has led the proprietors of so many "catarrh cures'' to advertise their remedies as a specific for almost every disease under the sun.
 We. have ONE catarrh cure that we are willing to say to you; "We know this is all right Take it home and use it with the full assurance that if 1t does not cure you, you can bring it back to us and we will promptly refund your money" That catarrh cure is

During the past few months we have been publishing what some of our good friends have called "heart-to-heart talks on patent medicines.
 That name suits us all right-"heart- to-heart talks" is just what we have intended. There can't be anything more serious to sick man or sick woman than his ailment and the remedies he or she takes to cure it.
 Our talks have been "heart-to-heart." Every word we have printed has been written in absolute earnestness and sim cerity, and judging from what our GUS toners tell us, we have not been talking in vain. We are convinced that our frankness has been appreciated, and that OUT suggestions have been welcomed which naturally encourages us to com tinue.
 To-day, and perhaps for some time to come, we want to talk about that big class of remedies known generally as "catafrh cures"
 Broadly speaking these are the patent medicines that have. been the chief tar gets for the attacks of the Ladies Home Journal" Golfers Weekly" and other magazines which are waging such a lively warfare against patent medicine abuses.
 As we have pointed out in previous talks, it is not our business to pass judg- ment on the crusade of these well- known, highly-respected publications. The public alone must be the judge and jury. Our business, as we see it, is to carry in stock complete line of patent medicines, and to sell those medicines at the lowest possible price.
 We sell hundreds--yes, thousands of bottles of so-called "catarrh cures" and know nothing of their ingredients. The manufacturers advertise them, the public demands them: we order them from the manufacturers, and sell them at the low est price. That is absolutely as far as our knowledge goes. The manufactures keeps his formula secret. It maySbe good, or it may not--we don't know, and we have no means of finding out.
 Naturally, we would rather sell rem
