WE'VE HAD

the most troublesome time Of our lives since last week. If there ever was a sorry man in Waterbury it was the man who writes our ads. You see we wrote Santa Claus to send us a whole lot of dolls, sleds, etc, for Christmas, and Santa Claus said he'd send them. But he has been at the telephone talking to us every half hour since. He wants to know where all the good little boys and girls live and what's their names and how old they are. We'll, we've told him where every "kid' in town lives, so that part of 1t IS settled. But he continues to ask other ques- tions. He wants to know who are all the living saints that Mayor Thoms is going to put on his new boards shortly. He says the Hon William is to be congratulated on finding the required number o1 "saints" in the city of Waterbury. We'll, we didn't tell Santa Claus we were sorry to see him so mistaken in regard to his opinion of Water bury politicians Calling them "saints," oh me, oh my). But poor Santa Claus, as tired as he is, he asked questions for two hours about our board of health. He wants to know are they sleeping; he hasn't heard of them taking another trip of inspection a few hundred miles away. He kind,4 thinks they have not got over the last trip. He's well aware they are not good tea drink CTS. If they were they'd have new creamatory, the best in the state, built by this time. Remember, it you want your brain to act quick drink the kind of tea and coffee sold at
