LARGE Diamond Imports.

The total import of gems at the port
of New York last year was over 43
million dollars, which is the highest
mark reached in the history of the
country. In 1905 the import was only
81 million and in 1904 but 26 million.
From this statement it will be seen
that the demand for precious stones
is constantly on the increase, and in
this latter respect it might be COM
pared to the ever increasing demand
for Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. From
a very humble start. 81 years ago, it
has grown until today finds it leader
of its class, due entirely to its won.

WE.THINK

if politician is running for an office and expects to receive the votes of the people he should be an honest man, and one who will look out for the taxpayers interest. But where do we find honest politicians? Why' over in Cheshire, of course?
 WE ALSO THINK
 any man looking for office should not tell lies about his opponent, for a man who tells little lies is liable to be able to tell big ''whoppers," and such a man as rule is a gol darn sight worse than the man he's talk ing about. But where do we tind politicians who don't tell lies? why, down in Naugatuck, of course.
 WE ALSO THINK
 any man who tries to secure an once by receiving the votes of our people should be a very pious, In fact ne should be quite a reverentlal person, always and ever looking out for the spiritual as we'll as the financial end. But where, oh where, do we ma such a makeup of humanity? Why, up in Thomaston, of course.
 WE AISO lHlNh
 any man who seeks an office at the hands of our voters should be man who believes in temperance-a man who wants no license, who knows the only drinks that should be al lowed in a city the size of Water bury is tea, coffee, cocoa and butter milk, for we know if everyone would drink nothing stronger than the kind we sell there would be less jumping from one party to the other. But where will be find such temperance man? Why, down in Bridgeport, of course. But if you want nice tasting tea, coffee or buttermilk, call at PHELAN'S T STORE l l2 EAST MAIN ST. TELEPHONE.
