1t has been truly said: EVERY man
owning farm, however small it may
be, ought to plant an orchard. He
should be able to have fruit on his ia
BILE in some shape every day in the
year. It is not only great luxury,
enjoyed alike by old and young, but
as an article of daily food the healthi
est and most nourishing that can be
used. In fact, it is both food and me-
dicine the year around. &C. H. Ogle

Deafness CANNOT be Cured

by local application as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
andthat is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con,
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have rumpling sound of
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed deafness is theresult, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition. hearing will be destroyed
forever; nibe cases ont of ten are caus-
ed by catarrh, which is nothing but an
infiamed condition Of the mucous sur
faces
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case OF Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
Catarrh Cure.

A course of practical business train. Ing that is flexible and adapted to the pupil, that will give to each student individual attention and aid in just what he needs, and that fully recog- nizes time value, are some of the prin- ciples that R. s. Cunningham proposes to establish in his new Bridgeport Bus mess college which opens Monday, Oc- tober 5. Mir Cunningham has been prominently identified with business college work for 15 years, and during that time has been the means of plac- ing hundreds of his students in good positions. His contact with business men has convinced him that in all office work thoroughness is of first inn portance, and having this in mind, he has engaged for instructors ladies and gentlemen of wide experience, both as teachers and in actual commercial work. The new school is located in light and airy room in the Court Ex- change building on State street, right in the business section of Bridgeport. New furniture of modern design and comfortable lines is being made to or der and will be installed this week. In all that goes to make a school prac- tical and of help to young man or young woman taking up the study of bookkeeping, shorthand, typewriting or other commercial work, the new school lacks nothing. A modern and a model school deserves, and will no doubt receive, the liberal support of the people of this county.

STUNNING FALL STYLES ON
 EXHIBITION.

OPENING FASHION SHOW Al
 MEIGS & CO.'S ANNOUNCED
 A GLORIOUS GALAXY OF CAP
 TIVATING MODELS.-EX HIBI-
 TON DAYS TO BE OCTOBER l,
 2, AND 8.
 Not in years have women's styles
 shown such radical changes as this
 season brings forth. For this reason,
 the big fashion show at Meigs & Co. s
 announced for the first three days of
 October, will attract more than the
 usual degree of attention in the femi-
 nine world. The flashing costumes
 worn by the beauties Of the D;rectoire
 period dictate the lines of the new
 styles. Parisian creators of style
 have wrought many daring innovations
 but American costume makers have
 cleverly adapted the best features of
 the Directorie styles and the recent
 French copies of them, and the results
 oftheir work will be seen in this Fall
 fashion show. A group of Directoire styles will be shown, which exhibit the most beautiful draping. These are in soft silks. satins and messaines. and are shown in jockey blue, peacock green, taupe, smoke mais, ivory, reseda, sapphire, purple and Edison blue. The broadest range of tailored suits ever shown in Bridgeport will be found in this exhibition, Do tn as to price and varety of styles. It includes all the new and smart hipless effects. pointed coat suits, Empire styles and severely tailored mannish styles. Ev- cry new shade is represented, wisteria, taupe, burgundy, smoke etc. in solid colors and two-tone effects and the ma terials employed and broadcloth, chev- tot, serge. worsted and the new chev- ron weaves. Satin and braid are the used. A group of one-piece dresses will arouse much enthusiasm among women. They are beautiful gar ments of an Empire model, made of soft, clinging wool challie, chiffon broadcloth, wool eolienne, messaline, taffeta and satin, in black and colors, and exquisitively trimmed with faces. The price range is extremely moder- ate. Special attention has been paid this Fall, to the requirements of misses and girls. the result of which is seen in splendid gathering of tailored suits at modest prices. in sizes which are for small women. Girls and children's needs are also fully met in the showing of school and fancy dress es, and dresses for dancing, the latter a number of entirely new &C., cordeon plaited models. The display of women's coats, skirts and waists is the most exhaustive ever seen in the ,ity, and will be found satisfying both n the quantity of models shown as we'll as in the style and quality of the garments offered at a very wide range )f prices. Every garment in the wom- en's section is en fate for the Exhi- oition Days, and visit to the base nent will discover wealth of the new est things in hosiery and footwear for misses and girls. The under wear section in the basement is also worthy a visit, and it will be found to supply everything in knit ,ed underwear. Meigs & Go will issue 10 cards for their Exhibition Days, but extend a cordial invitation to every )ne to visit the store during the exhib- t and see the beautiful apparel they nave gathered for the women of and vicinity.
