An Opinion Of Mine.

A girl is foolish to marry without
having some kind of an idea of the re-
} sponsibilities which await her. 1t is as
important to understand the care OF a
home and the mysteries of cpolSing. and
even the sewing-on of buttons, as 1t is
to know how to control ones temper
when things go wrong. The average
marriage starts off well, but when the
novelty wears off and husband and
wife begin to note each others short
comings, look out for trouble.

A HELP TO OTHERS.

THAT was a beautiful thought the
minister gave us about being on the
lookout for little unobtrusive ways we
can help others, wasn't it?" said Miss
Spears, fervently. to Mrs. Valley, as
the two women walked slowly home
from church together.
"Um-m. yes, it's beautiful thought" !"
said Mrs. Valley, in guarded man
ner, ''but the last time parson preached
that sermon-'twas five years ago, just
before you came here-it made con-
siderable trouble in my family.
'Yes," continued Mrs. VALLEY, with
an unseeing gaze on the changing fol-
iage of the village trees, Hiram saw
letter directed to his Aunt Letitia
lying on the sitting room table, and he
thought he wouldn't wait for me to
ask him to post it, same as l always
had to do two or three times before
he remembered.
''That sermon was right fresh in his
mind, and he picked up that letter.
sealed it, stamped it and posted it,
all without saying word to me till
next day. Then he spoke of it real
modest and yet pleased with himself.
I'm going to try to live up nearer
to that sermon than I've been doing.
Mandy he said to me, and maka
things easier for you; lift some O. the
little burdens O. life off'n your shoul-
ders.
"'Well, Hiram l said, as soon as l
could speak without taking his head
right off, for you know I'm high-tem-
pered, excepting for what grace I've
got, / know you meant well-but that
wasn't letter to your Aunt Letitia
you've sent off.
THAT envelope had her old address
on-of course you didn't notice that.
She'll get 1t, but it'll make her mad
as hornet when she sees 1t and thinks
I've been careless and forgotten the
new place; and inside were three ele-
CANT crochet patterns | was calculat-
ing to take over to the minister's wife
tomorrow. 1 put 'em in that old en-
velope for safe-keeping- been
there more'n six months. / was In
tending to let the minister's wife copy
them. l laid the envelope out soon as
we got back from meeting, so I'd re-
member.
Your Aunt Letitia desplses fancy
work, so she'll throw them in the fire
and then sit down and write me-
$50 she did," added Mrs. VALLEY,
grimly, "and 1t took good deal of
work to get her Strengthened out
''On the whole, there wasn't any
lasting harm done, but | was only
thinking as / sat there this morning,
l was sort of relieved to think Hiram's
cold KEEP him home from church to-
day, all things considered"

There never lived a more steady and
persistent grumbler than Reuben Hail.
Not only the weather, the state Of his
health and his crops furnished him
with subjects, but the most reasonable
and lenient laws which could be con-
structed raised discomfort in Reuben's
mind.
"I dunno what they mean by telling
folks to cart their waste stuff over TO
that dump at the end o. Grantham's
Woods instead O. leaving it in the
Lawton sullar-hole," he said, indig-
nantly, one day. Suppose the sullar-
hole does show up from the road, what
business has this town got to put an in
junction on folks dumping stuff In it?'
..@The towns bought the old Lawton
place." said his neighbor, in the pacific
tone people usually employed in ad-
ddessing Mr.. Hail. And l thought
you were one of those that said twas
an eyesore. Do you want to dump any
O. your old junk in there, Reub, tidy
as you are?"
"No, don't wanter," said Mr.. Hall,
sullenly; but 1 wanter have the right

OF Interest to Women.

Every woman naturally should be healthy
and strong, but great many women,
unfortunately, are not, owing to the I'M
natural condition of the lives we lead.
Heada he, backache and general tired
condition are prevalent amongst the
women of today and to relieve these
conditions women rush to the druggists
for bottle OF some preparation supp sed
to be particularly for them, and contain
ing nobody knows what. If they would
lust get box of Brandreth's Pills, and
take them reg Ilarly every night for time
all their trouble would disappear, as these
pills regulate the organs of the feminine
>ystem. The s me dose has the same
effect, no matter how long they are used.
Brandreth's Pills have been in use for
over century and are sold in every

The HOwIing Old Blizzard.
How dear to my heart is the fierce howl
ing blizzard,
Which comes from the north like wolf
on the fold,
Predicted by Foster or some other wizard,
The charger of snow and the demon of
cold;
How sweet to be caught in its grasp like
a feather,
And find yourself wrapped round tele-
graph pole;
Oh, how we adore, in this wild wintry
weather,
This blizzard that comes when you're
clear out of coal
This wild, whirling blizzard, the razor
edged blizzard,
The loud-howling blizzard fresh from
the North Pole.

pIANoFoRTE RECITAL.

Last Friday evening in the Gilbert Memorial church was given a most de- lightful lecture recital. Miss Marie Benedict of Danbury WIS at her best and gave q fine program with taste and feeling. Her descriptions of the com positions and the circumstances under which they were written. enhanced the enjoyment of her exquisite rendering, The fact that Miss Benedict is totally blind makes her still more remarkable. As Miss Benedict has formed a large class in music here it is hoped that we may have the pleasure of hearing her again later in the season.
 The annual report of the Gilbert Memorial church was presented in q neat printed form before the members of the church and parish a week ago. It shows an unusual growth in all lines of church work. Eighteen new mem bers have been received into the church during the past nine months. the larg- est number in any one year since the church was organized. Seven children have been christened; a large Junior Endeavor society organized: new upright piano has been put into the Sunday school room. Sunday school in- terest has been greatly increased by the introduction of supplementary work through the pastors efforts, and the social work has revived strong in terest among the young people. This report, marking the first year of the present pastorate, shows the church ir the best condition for many years.
 Invitations have been received 1T town for the marriage of Miss Florence Jones of Bridgeport and David Carl of New York City, which will takt place at St Johns church, Bridgeport on Thursday afternoon, October 3.
