ooh, yes, we have a wonderful
climate" said the man from southern
Texas. "Why only last season, on
my ranch, We raised a pumpkin so
large that, after saving it in two, my
wife used each half as a cradle to
rock the babies in" yes" twitters
the man from New York, but in my
State it's a commc1 thing to fnd
three full-grown policemen asleep on
one beat"

If a man could only see himself as
the neighbors see him he could easily
see his finish.

birth of l 300 children-almOSt equal to the entire present population of the town. And, as THE NEWS observes. ''The most remarkable part of it all is, that ln this long list every mother has survived and the percentage of children who have not lived is remarkably small. |" It is unquestionably a fine record for the doctor, good thing for the census enumerator, and a creditable showing for the good old town. But best of all, it IS 300 feathers in the caps of the Ca- naan ladies-God bless 'em every one. And many happy returns
 The Village Water
 For number of days. especially dur ing the excessively high temperature there has been an unpleasant taste and odor to the village water. During the present week the water company has been met with complaints from all quarters. Many of the patrons have been boiling water, others have ceased using it for drinking or household pur- poses and have travelled a considerable distance to wells and springs of people who live outside the zone where there is no danger of the water being polluted. Superintendent Rhoades of the water company states that there is nothing wrong at the reservoir, notwithstanding the various rumors which have been afioat during the past few days, and his statement is supported by a number of citizens who visited the reservoir on Monday. All tell the same story, i. e., that the water is as clear as crystal and apparently pure. MT. Rhoades claims that the unpleasant taste and odor is caused blythe vegetable growth 1n the reservoir, weed which has not grown there to any great extent until this year. This is probably the solution although 1t does not relieve the situation in the least. The villagers believe a thorough cleaning is what the reservoir needs. MT. Rhoades says that it would not be safe at the present time to draw off the water for the reason that the reservoir would fill very slowly and hardship would be imposed upon the patrons. He further says that the water is now down about two feet below the normal level and if it lowers another foot, which it is probable it will do, the south end can be thoroughly cleaned, and a sufficient portion of the reservoir banks can be freed from the weeds above men, tioned, to do away with the present ob- jectionable features. Therefore it ap- pears to be an instance of "grin and bear it' until more favorable conditions prevail.

 Sheffield gave young Sohmid perfect support and in so doing showed how good pitcher he really is. He allowed only twenty-niue men to come to bat in nine full innings. C. Breen and Stilson were both caught trying to steal second, with yards to spare by Little's fine throwing. The only man to reach sec ond did so on wild pitch by Sehmid, Four men reached first and the rest were retired in one, two, three order.

 change in existing conditions. That MT. Macdonald is doing his level best to give Connecticut superior highways cannot be gainsaid, and he will succeed if he is given time, but the job he now has on his hands is too large to be finished quick ly enough to satisfy the people in every section where better highways are de- manded. In northwestern Litchfield county such highways are necessary in almost evDry section where state road does not already exist and we have reason to believe that this is also true of nearly ever other section of the state.
