These Autumn days are not half
so beautiful and rich as they were
forty years ago when we used to
chase the squirrel up the hickory
tree and pound the walnut limbs
until they gave up their fruit.
Not near SO fair and lively as they
were when we hauled the pump
kins, shocked the fodder and list
ened to the bleating of the lambs
that had strayed away. The sun
does not shine so bright, the woods
are not painted just the same and
the hills and steeples are not so
high. No, these days of closing
September are not what they were
forty years ago.-The Ellington
Press.

A CONTEMPORARY seems to think
that the Government should make
good to Mr.. Atkins that SCI, 800
stolen from the sub-treasury by
some subordinate, unfortunately
undetermined, whose bondsmen
else would have to pay it. 1t does
seem hard that Mr.. Atkins. whose
honesty no one questions, should
suffer because the courts and their
officers cannot locate the thief. 1t
is unfortunate, but would not the
Governments satisfying the deficit
set a dangerous precedent? This
aside, and L, as a citizen, would
cheerfully bear my proportion of
the loss. In this | will doubtless
be upheld by some Republican
neighbors who favor giving the
butt end of the law to Democratic
unfortunates and offenders only.

ROOSEVELT ALL SMILES.
We've Been Hitting Them Hard," He
 Says to Won Meyer.

Washington, Sept. 23. - President Roosevelt's special was met at the sta- tion by many officials, including mem. bers of the cabinet, army and navy officers and others. The president was the picture of health and vigor as he alighted to return to his duties. He was attired in frock coat, dark gray trousers and black slouch hat. His tronzed face beamed with delight as he gave the hearty handclasp and characteristic word of greeting to those who surrounded him. Secreta- ries Wright. Metcalf, Straus and Will, son and Postmaster General Meyer formed the center of the group.
 That was hot shot, said Mr. von Meyer, alluding to the presidents let ter grilling Senator Foraker.
 "I think we've been hitting them hard" responded MT. Roosevelt, laugh ingly. az
 As the president with a rapid stride passed through the gates and through the presidents room to his carriage he was given an ovation by a thousand or more people, who chee-ed lustily.

THE PENALTY OF OVERWORK.

Work has been mans lot since the creation, but day of toll should not have it's penalty of pain. Why is it, then, you ask. that backache so often follows? It is because the modern tendency is to overwork, to tear 1own faster than nature can rebuild. lAn unnatural strain is thrown upon the vital organs, and more especially upon the kidneys. which have the work of Altering the blood free of waste and poison.
 The heavy tax of overwork-the strain upon the back that is so com mon to many trades and occupations, is too great. The kidneys begin to fail in their work, and there Is a double danger to health. The poison ous matter collects in the system. and the kidneys themselves begin to break down.
 ] Pain in the back is only a warning of trouble in the kidneys. An infiam- nation has set in, and disordered condition of the urine soon becomes apparent.
 Too much or too little urine, with . constant desire to void the secre- tions; any noticeable deviation from the normal color; the appearance of . sandy sediment, proves disor-

Who was it said Waterbury repub- licans were enthusing over Candi- date Lilley? Look at that list of speakers at the republican smoker and rally last evening. Where were the men of the party, the old stock, the good old repuh'. cans that have been the bone and sinew of it in for mer years. Gone fishing, we are told. Unless the democrats help out MT Lilley on election day it looks as though he will be showed under. It Is rumored now that the subject has been touched upon, that some alleged democrats are doing missionary work already for the republican candidate, and hope thereby to gain enough from the ranks of the democratic party to offset the republicans that will not vote for him. Real demo- crats. however, are not in that kind of business. They might be classed with some of the former democrats that are now doing duty for ..te Taft marching club. Pretty soon We may expect a letter from President Roose- welt on the Lilley nomination. unless he is too busy booming Taft and "my policies"

South Africa is very far from the United States, nevertheless, says one writer, there are thousands of intel ligent Americans who cannot but be interested in the fact that that won derful, rich and extensive region is now essentially and enthusiastically an English colony--a region where the English language will be spoken :; where English institutions and civili- zation. will prevail; a country where an American speaking but one lan- guage, as is the case with at least ninety-nine in hundred, will be understood; and where he may travel and transact business with the same ease and confidence that he would in Canada and Australia. Six years have elapsed since the Boers surrendered at Pretoria and these sturdy descend ants of Dutchmen have, in the last few years, advanced from the primi- tive condition of peasants, such as ex- isted in the world hundred and fifty years ago, to a realization of the strenuous and advanced conditions of modern life. Autonomous government has been restored to them and a scheme for the union of the South Af- rican states similar to that which has recently been accomplished in is under consideration. South Africa will probably be united within the coming year.

 Evidently Jacob Elburwell of Mt Washington Is convinced that mar riage Is no failure. He ought to be pretty good judge of the subject, for while he Is but so years of age he has just taken his fourth bride in spite of the fact that he had one experience that resulted in a divorce. Elburwell doesn't seem to have q preference for any particular type of beauty in selecting his wife, for his first choice was French, his sec ond American, his third German and his most recent selection Is Irish. In spite of his experience Jacob is still very impressionable, for it is reported that he fell in love with his last sweetheart at sight and married her within two weeks after he formed her acquaintance.--New London Day.
 The clergy of twenty-seven Roman Catholic parishes in Brooklyn have signed an agreement that hereafter they will give no aid, direct or indi- rect to persons seeking permits for fireworks, bands of music, the stringing of lights and the erecting of altars and shrines in the public streets" They have also issued signed explanation of the agreement. These rackety street celebrations are largely promoted, they say, by ire ligious and undesirable citizens keep CTS of saloons and the like; are "a gross imposition" on simple, credu- lous Italian wage-earners; annoy Protestants and Catholics alike; are especially distressing to the sick; are not approved by the church, and are "a burlesque of the spiritual side of religion" One of the signers, Fath- CT Ubalbus, is nephew of Cardinal Sartolli.-Hartford Courant.
 Mark Twains sign on his door ad- dressed to burglars suggests the say ing relative to too tardy locking of the stable door. But the warning gives us a glimpse of the humorist' 8 aDlllty to De truly runny even when under provocation to wrath and in that light 1t was worth tacking to the door. One speculates, though, upon the effect the sign would have had on the burglars of the other night if MT Clemens had put it in place earlier. Would they have ap- preciated the joke sufficiently to deny themselves the opportunity of breaking and entering? Is there freemasonry among humorists which protects honest ones of the ilk from the dishonest ones? Have burglars a sense of humor? If they had, would they be busSlars? Some sociologists argue that a lack of moral perception is always accom- panied by lack of sense of humor. Transcript.

The converting In Washington of three important congresses almost simultaneously will inaugurate a "small' social season. A reception by the secretary of state, another by Secretary Straus and private view in the evening of the pictures in the Corcoran art gallery will be the most
 important of the unusual features of the early autumn weeks. As a con- sequence many prominent people are hurrying home and among the distin- guished ones who have arrived are Postmaster General Meyer, the Bel gian minister, and the family of Sen ator Elkins. Miss Katharine Elkins who is supposed to be engaged to the Duke Abruzzi, has been much feted this summer but she preserves an absolute silence as to her matrimon- ial plans. Society is very eager to know If the king of Italy is really go- ing to allow the match, but the fam fly of the senator and the crusty mil lionaire himself are exceedingly touchy on the subject and newspaper correspondents prefer any assignment than that of interviewing the Elkins on the subject.

MT Taft may not have been will ing to compromise with Senator For aker July 20, 1907. The fact re- mains, however, that he did compro- mise with him few weeks ago. MT Foraker's services were accepted, and long speaking tour arranged for him by Taft and his campaign man. agers. If MT Taft would not compro- mise with Senator Foraker during July, 1907, why did he do so in Sep tember, 1908? What change had the Ohio senator made in his attitude on the Roosevelt policies on the Browns vile affair that occasioned his well come to front seat in the Taft band wagon this fall? These are questions for MT Taft to answer.-New Haven Union.
 If Hearst had only delayed the on- slaught he made on Foraker for a few days longer it would have been even more difficult for Taft to ex- plain than it is at present, and per haps that Roosevelt endorsement and the letter of naughty-seven would never have seen the light.
 
 MT Foraker has been in politics for nearly thirty years. Twice the peo- pie of his state have made him gov- ernor; four times he has sat in the chair of Ohio republican conventions; six times he sat as delegate-at-large in republican national conventions; for the past dozen years he has been a senator of the United States, and a few months ago he was asking Ohio to name him (and not Taft) for the presidency. MT Foraker will not be reelected to the senate. He will not be renominated. On the third day of March, 1909. if he doesn't anticipate the inevitable by writing resigna- tion, the Hon Joseph Benson ForakeA will retire-involuntarily and def-, private life. Why?
