COMFORTING WORDS.
Many a Connecticut Household Will
 Find Them So.

To have the pains and aches of bad back removed; to be entirely free from annoying, dangerous urinary disorders is enough to make any kidney sufferer grateful. To tell how this great change can be brought about will prove com forting words to hundreds of Connecticut readers.
 Mrs. M. Wagner, of 1927 Kossuth St., Bridgeport, Conn. says: II suffered for years from kidney trouble. There was a severe pain across my Joins so that I could not rest at night When I caught cold it settled in my kidneys and at such times I became weak, and also very nervous. After trying several remedies without relief procured Doan's Kidney Pills at F. s. Stevens drug store, and they soon relieved me of the aches and pains. The nervous and weak feeling also left me. I can speak as highly in praise of Doan's Kidney Pills to-day as I did six years ago when I recommended hem through the papers,"

sIumber That Led to the Death OH King Charles l.
 In the middle of HOlborn once stood an inn, the George and Blue Boar, and there took place an incident which en- tirely changed the whole tale of Eng lands history.
 AS twilight was falling in October, 1648, very tired post boy mounted on sweating horse pulled up outside the old inn. The lad knew nothing of the importance of the letters which lay In his post bag. His orders were to convey them to a point on the Great North road, where he would be met by other messengers.
 But Cromwell's spies had followed him from the south coast, for Eng lands liberty depended upon his dis patches miscarrying. The boy had some supper and afterward fell asleep. his head pillowed on his post bag.
 While he slept CromweH's men took the bag and found in it a letter from King Charles I. to the Scottish gener- als arranging for his rescue, an imme- diate advance on London and the ar rest and execution of Cromwell and his friends. That same evening Cromwell had the fatal letter and determined on Charles death.-London Tit-Bits.

 Zenas Washburn recently killed a strange dog which he found fighting with his dog, and which appeared to he rabid. About the same time a neighbor of his found one of two calves which he had in the pasture to be so badly bitten and mangled that he felt obliged to kill it, know ing nothing of how it became injured. Since then the other calf sickened and
 finally had hydrophobic symptoms and was killed. Examination showed that it also had been bitten. and the inference is that the dog which MT. Washburn killed had done the mischief to MT. Snow s calves.

The procession, which had tbe day been fair would have been the longest that ever went the rounds in Stafford on Decoration day. was composed of members of Winter Post, the band and the flower committee of young ladies. The cemeteries in this village and West Stafford were decorated, when the rain increasing, and the indi cations being unmistakably of rainy day, the procession returned to their quarters, leaving the ether decorations to be done informally on another day. The balance of the day was spent under cover, the grove emblage being out of the question. The rooms of the Post in Rockwell block were che rendezvous, the collation. there being served. Esq. Reed being called upon made an appropriate after dinner speech commendatory of the sentiment which prompted the observance of the day. After this the gathering adjourned to Borough hall, which was we'll filled, and when after pray CT by Rev. MT. Painter and music by the band, Rev. H. A. Shorey deliver ed the oration of the day.

THE EDUCATED MAN.
Not All of His Knowledge Comes From
 Books and Schools.

The most important part of educa- tion comes from intercourse with peo- pie. From this side comes the educa- ton in love and duty and service. The actions of people stimulate imitation and emulation. By these men grow in power and skill. From observation of the character of people men form ideals of character for themselves and are transformed thereby. Herein lies the consummate educative power in Christianity-the transforming power of the divine man.
 According to this new idea, educa- tiOn is not merely receiving, but giv- ing; not learning alone, but doing The educated man is open eyed and open minded, quick to respond to influ- ences from without, learning from all his experiences and growing in power as he grows in knowledge. Charles Kingsley said of his father that "he possessed every faculty but the facul- ty of using his faculties He was not an educated man, although he was a very learned one.
 Education is an individual matter. No two men can be educated alike in manner or degree. They respond to different influences and grow in differ ent ways. One becomes educated by way of schools and colleges and life, another by life alone. The measure of a mans education is the measure of his use in the world.-George w. Mar tin in Boston Globe.

I hauled them up and showed them for four or five days in, my whale tent; then I sold them to the fishermen, who salted them down for bait, taking out the bills, eyes and pens, which I sold as curios.
