 Southington, Feb. "A question in regard to tax abatement has arisen in town and promises to be of great in- terest. For years the power of abate- ment has rested in the hands of the selectmen in Southington and now 1t is said that there is question of legal ity in their abatement In a nearby town this matter is brewing at pres ent and the town counsel has given out that taxes can be abated only by the board of relief or the board of asses sors. This will undoubtedly make some difference with the present claim of William H. Barnes for tax abatement to the amount of $1,925.64 Al the town meeting of January the committee was appointed to investigate the claim and then report to the selectmen the i findings of their investigation. How ever. if the town counsel finds that the matter is one which must by law go to the board of relief or board of as- sessors, 1t is a question what will be- come of the note of the meeting which clearly stipulated that the matter eb referred to the selectmen. Undoubted- ly the town counsel will be called upon 10 give a statement in regard to this mattef.

When the Nose Bleeds,

When the nose is bleeding
never hold II over a basin or hold
the head down in any way. THIS
only causes further rush of the
blood to the broken tissues IN
the nose. The head should he
held up aud back, the flow being
caught IN handkerchlefs or cloths.
One of the most effective aud sim
pie means Of checking a nose
bleed is to press on tie uTer lr.
Near the undersurface of the lip
runs the artery that supplies tie
interior nasal passages where
the ruptures occur. If this is
pressed, the flow of blood is
mechanically checked, thus allow.
ing the blood around the broken
tissues to CONCEAL and seal up the
opening. If merely pressing
with the finger does not succeed,
place a wad of paper under the
lip and fold the lip over it, hold.
ing II down tight. Again, If this
does not succeed and a drug store
Is near get some adrenalin satur-
ate piece of cotton with it and
apply to the interior of the nose
from where the blood flows.

Written BY Republicans.

The truth of history demonstrates
that the great organization. the great
power that saved the Union, was the
Republican organization. remember
a few years ago when my genial friend
from Ohio, James f. Campbell, was
member of the house he took the floor
to prove that there was no Republican
party in 1864. when Lincoln was re-
elected and he brought in copy of
the Tribune Almanac which showed
that the votes for Lincoln were given
under the caption Of Union Republic
ans" and, he clai Il. showed there
was no Republican party. The argu-
ment Of my colleague the other day
brought back the fanciful argument Of
James Il. Campbell, / think. way back
in the Forty-ninth congress. The Re.
publican party In behalf Of Abraham
Lincoln appealed to the Union men In
the United States to strike down that
party, which In their platform declared
the war failure. Mr.. Chairman, from
the sixties down who can name an i'm
portant piece of legislation for the good
of the people of the United States that
was not written on the statute books
by the Republican party?- = Congress-

wife az a Companion.

A distinguished author says that a
woman who cannot read or write, but
who makes her home and husband
comfortable, is far better wife than
a girl who can speak six languages
and does not know how to cook a
dinner and keep house clean, says
a writer. Unless brides brains are
turned to domestic account they are of
very little practical use to husband.
The fact that she is brilliant mu-
stefan and mistress of French and
Italian is poor consolation for burnt
chops and muddy coffee. Talent. like
charity, should begin at home, and
no woman can be called clever who
does not use her wits first toward
achieving home comfort and skilled
housekeeping. At the same time
know many bride who is ignorant
of book learning shaky in her
spelling and shocking housewife
too! After all. to be clever and to
cultivate ones mind-without neglect
ing cookery and the domestic arts
makes a wife more charming com
panion to her husband.
