That Touch of Refinement.

Nothing is more delightful to the dinner party guests than to be serv- ed after dessert with those dainty. delicious Nabisco Sugar Waters, the confection that instantly marks the genteel refinement and thoughtful consideration of the hostess. Every one is not certain to fancy the des- sert you have served, but all will de- light in nibbling Nabisco Sugar Wa fers. They cant help melting in your mouth, leaving just sugges- tion of the delicate fiavoring so pleas ant to the taste. You'll never be at loss for a popular and attractive des- sert If you keep several tins of Ma bisco Sugar Waters in the house.

Horace Taft, the press reports, has uttered the following judgment Of his fellow citizens of the Nutmeg state: If crowd of rascals should steal the whole Capitol, half the Con- necticut backwoods towns wouldn't know about it. and, if they did know, they would keep right on blowing just the same.' The dispatch adds: Leaders of the republican organiza- tion say MT Taft's hot words cannot be dangerous to his brother Bill, be- cause the state is too solidly republi- can." Naturally, let us further add. immovable allegiance to party and immutable indifference to grand lar ceny go together; both flower from the same stalk. A constituency which can be absolutely depended upon under all circumstances for a safe majority is just the one in which sequestration of public proper ty may be undertaken with brightest promise of success. In solid old Pennsylvania, for example, they took the whole Capitol twice over.-Sat- urday Evening Post.

Democrats and republicans too. should take the political hash served by the Democrats Grand street con- temporaries with a grain Of salt. For instance look at the report of that meeting in the first ward Friday night. One might safely say, not a word of truth in the report, and the evening paper followed the morning, just as night follows day. The Dem ocrat carried in its columns satur- day night denial from the man the other papers heralded as chairman of the meeting. In the words of Davy Crockett, Be Sure You're Right. Then go Ahead"

POLITICAL POINTERS
First Ward Democrats Meet To.
 Night Lilley's SisndiDg.

First ward democrats will meet in the city court room at 8 o'clock tonight to prepare ticket for the primary. All democrats of that dis trict are invited to be present.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1908-08-31

Candidate Lilley, he of the "un- common anxiety" as shown by his summer long touring of the state by automobile, with the accompanying distribution of pictures and buttons, but whether with the display of ban ners and notices after the fashion of patent medicine vendors, we do not know, is now assured of the re- publican nomination for governor, provided the delegates now claimed for him can be held, of which there is more or less doubt. If the nom- ination is made by ballot, as usual, which Is secret, MT Lilley may be de- feated, for, as matter of fact, few of the delegates claimed for him are bound by instructions. Hence the attempt, now in progress, to make the nomination by roll call, in which procedure each delegate would be compelled to stand up and nane his choice. What predicament for a professedly great party-compelled to an unusual, and, perhaps, un- precedented procedure in order to force upon its rank and file a dis tasteful candidancy. - Bridgeport Farmer.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1908-08-31

If it is true the Journal-Courier has done more with its abuse" to force the nomination, or the impend- ing nomination, of MT Lilley, why should those who rejoice in his political advancement make faces at us. If our critics are right, the least we can expect, iii event of his cleo tion, is a fine uniform and place on the military staff for services rem dered.-New Haven Journal-Courier.

Hon Frank T. Brown of Norwich, head of the republican state delega- ton of that town, spent Sunday with Congressman Lilley at Waterbury Mir Brown is beyond queqstion the leading lawyer of the eastern part of the state, and one of the fore most in Connecticut. He was coun- sel for Mir Lilley at the time of the so-called inquiry at Washington. and is to make the nominating speech for him at the convention il. New Haven next week.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1908-08-31

Congressman Lilley has mother, 75 years old, who is naturally fond of her son and anxious for his sue cess but still more interested in his good name. It is part of the his- tory of this peculiar campaign that some thoughtful opponent of Mir Lilley has kindly arranged to have her receive every day copies of the two newspapers of the state that are engaged in trying to discredit him before the people of Connecti- cut This is graceful touch of con- sideration that would not have oc- cured to everybody.-Hartford Courant.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1908-08-31

The delegates elected in republi- can caucuses Saturday night from the town of old Saybrook are for Congressman Lilley, he also gets Woodstock. Lake got one and Woodruff one in the latter town. The Courant's standing to date is Lilley 341, Lake 102, Woodruff 51.

cuRE 20 LoNgLINEss.

selfshness is one great cause Of
Loneliness. n a man builds walls
around himself 30 that he may keep
all that he has 10 himself. he soon
finds that he has built walls around
himself which shut out all that
might come in to him from others
So the cure Of loneliness may be the
overcoming Of s~elfshnoss. The medi
cines for this disease Of loneliness
are potions OF generosity, Of
thoughtfulness for others, Of self
sacrifice, taken in large doses. Even
when the loneliness comes from the
bitterness Of loss and sorrow. for
getting self, going out Of self and
doing for others, is the only cure
that God has given on earth for its
healing.-Sunday School Times.

"For more than 80 years the most
popular woodsmnn's bank in Maine
was a bank on two legs says Maj.
Holman Day, author Of king
Spruce" 'dUntil he was over 20
years old, Uncle Nate Swan was
conductor on the Bangor and Pts
cataquis railroad, running between
the city and Moosehead lake. with
him rode the woods and driving
crews. When they forgot themselves
and made a racket on his train he
used to cuff them into submission
and no man ever raised his hand
against Uncle Nate. When the men
came out Of the woods with their
pay most of them realized from bit
ter experience that the city folks
would get all their money away
from them in a few DAYS. As soon
as thcv would get aboard the train
they would begin to strip ten-dollar
bills Oft their rolls and hand the
money to Uncle Nate to sink for
them-banking it on call. They
never forgot, nor did he; and in all
the years there was never a dispute
between Conductor Swan and any Of
his depositors. When they came
back ON his train they were sure Of
enough money for their fare and
their tobacco at the lake Quitting
store. They wouldn't have known
very well what TO do with more"

A story is being told Of Mr.. John

shows how strongly he has the re-

we're once travelling in Paris, and
they stood in the Place de Ia Bas-
tile on the centenary Of the down
fall Of that famous prison. For a
time they gazed in silence at the
July column, but at last Mr.. Burns
companion yentured the question:
what would you have been doing

One night as a Canadian doctor
who lives in Eastern Ontario was
driving into q village, he saw a chap,
a little the worse for liquor, amusing
a crowd Of spectators with the antics
Of his trick dog. The doctor watched
him a while and said; "Sandy, how
do YOU manage to train your dog?

The sheriff Of the county learned of
the affair and threatened the gypsies
with arrest on the charge of cruelty
TO animals. Before the shooting the
farmer who offered to buy the horse
again appeared, and this time was will
ing to pay 500. He received the same
answer-no. They told him that should
the jury declare the horse to be not
guilty Il would be turned loose and al
lowed to roam wherever it pleased, and
thereafter be the property of the man
who claimed him. No money on earth
could buy the animal-it must either
suffer death or be released. The band
left Montana soon afterwards and
came TO Salt Lake.
Law of the Tribe.
For q period of six weeks after the
death of a gypsy, the men are not
allowed to shave or the women to
braid their hair. At the end of this
time there is feasting and praise SER
vices. After the first six weeks they
must then go for five months without
shaving. and then for another period of
six months. Covering in all about one
year. during which time the men are
allowed to shave only three times.
At the feast prepared Saturday
night, wine played an important part
in the spread. On each table were
fifty-one candles. which denoted the
age of Marine when ne was killed
The celebration is one of the most sa-
cred in the religion of the gypsy. and
the more wine he drinks the greater
his reward. No expense Is spared o
make these celebrations complete to
the smallest detail, men, women and
children all joining in eating and
drinking until they can hold no more
The gypsy Of the present day is not
n beggar. as many people suppose, but
makes his living trading horses and
cattle. The women are rare fortune
tellers and great money makers. The
men, too, have a way of getting the
big end of every trade they make, and
are always we'll supplied with money.

DREADED INSANITY DUE TO
KIDNEY DISORDERS
Symptoms and Home Treat
ment.

Gaut. the celebrated German special
ist, asserts that seven-tenths of the
Predetermined and insane are the vic
Tins of kidney diseases.
Nervousness, eXcitability, restless
ness, melancholia, pains in the back
and head. neuralgia and rheumatic
pains, fevers. chills, scanty urine, high
ly colored and acid urine, burning
pains. fullness and soreness in the re-
gion of the bladder, all indicate that the
kidneys are affected and weakened,
needing tonic treatment.
The very best physician should be
consulted at once, unless the patient
fully recognizes the symptoms. in which
case the following simple, inexpensive,
but reliable prescription be used for
several weeks.
Ask any honest druggist to mix one
half ounce fluid extract Buchu, with
one ounce compound fluid Balmwort
and two ounces compound syrup Sar-
parilla- Then take a teaspoonful
after each peal and one at retiring
drinking plenty of good. pure water be-
tween meals This mixture makes a
splendid tonic and blood purifier.
