THE GREAT EAGLES FAIR.
This is the Month When the Returns
 Will Come In.

Somewhere in this city, or state, or country there has already been sent out, or will be in the next few days, souvenir that will carry with 1t many thausand times it's weight in gold. There will be twenty one of those souvenirs and they may all drop right here in Waterbury. They have done so before and those who landed the lucky fish, can attest to how wholesome it was. The next few weeks will prove whether you are possessed of sand or not If you are, you will join in the possession and capture all the souvenirs in sight This is the acceptable time and perhaps after you read this lit tie story, you will go look up an Eagle. It will not be difficult to find one, for they are as numerous as the chestnut crop was this season. They are no chestnuts by any means, for they sell you no goldbricks. They have the best offering in the market They want to present to you and if you let your friend or neighbor get III ducdu OL !Out ihCn sou VIII bcNC no one to blame but yourself.
 Now as to that piano. If there is any young lady, who has not already entered the race, she should get blsy at once and join the procession. Just think of how easy 1t will be for you to get piano, for which you might have to work life time. You can l.. I..a l. II or across the street. You wan. a piano and here is the chance to get one.
