New Shoes. Nothing pleases child more than new shoes. There is always the idea that that particular pair is the only pair of real importance in the vicinity. Children's shoes now come in such a variety and are so attractive that it is not strange that they are so valued by the little ones. At Mollan's, suede tops in grey, brown, and white are among the different styles, which include many feathers. The broad toes, are used almost ntirely now for chil- dren, and are by far the best for the feet. Close attention is given at Mol lan's to the fitting.

The question was asked in a paper recently, "What is home?" E. A. Un- derhill of Bethel has written the fol- lowing answer: Home is the place where we have complete contentment. Where we are surrounded by those we love and where those are who love us. It is the place we seek in times of trouble and adversities. It is the place where the innermost thoughts of the soul are revealed, and cheering words of sympathy are exchanged. It may be in palace where want is never known or perhaps in a dwelling where the wolf howls loudly and where the cares of the world weigh heavily, yet with the above conditions it is the grandest place in the universe.

SAVE THE FORESTS.
IT'S TIME TO WAKE UP TO THIS
 GREAT FACT.

Editor Newtown Bee: The careless cutting and destruction of our forests and wanton waste of tree tops, rails and other valuable wood ought to be prohibited. Every good citizen should take an interest in preserving our nat ural woods. One cannot travel far in the country without noticing the im- mense amount of fuel going to waste.
 1 venture to say that at present there is sufficient wood lying on the ground to keep the entire State in fire wood for a year. The present generation evidently is not giving much thought about the future and will not realize our danger until too late. te.-[Observer.

Fatal Accident at Bobbin Shop.
/. Gilman Peavey, superintendent of the
Chelsea bobbin shop, was caught in the
shafting Monday afternoon about
O'Clock and fatally injured.
He had been repairing belt and hav-
ing completed the work was putting 1T
in place with the machinery in motion
when the shafting caught his clothes and
carried him to violent death. No one
was present to see the accident and just
how it occurred can only be imagined, as
the men were all out in the yard after
load of logs, while he was repairing the
belt They were not gone from the shop
over ten minutes and when they returned
they found the ynangled and bleeding
body of Mr.. Peavey on the floor, his
clothing completely torn from him with
the exception of his shoes and stockings.
Besides external bruises, his head was
terribly cut and he was bruised internal
ly. A physician was summoned at once
and the injured man carried to his home
a short distance from the shop. He par
tally recovered consciousness once or
twice, but only for moment. He died
at 7:3O p. m. His age was 81 years, 10
months, 10 days.
This is particularly sad case as Mr..
Peavey was the sole reliance of an aged
father and mother and one daughter,
aged about IL years. His wife died sew
eraI years ago. Mr.. Peavey came here
from Tunbrdge last November to take
charge of the manufacture of bobbins for
the Chelsea Electric Light and Bobbln
Co.
The funeral was from his late nome
Wednesday afternoon at O'Clock, Rev.
Fred Daniels officiating. The interment
was in Tunbridge.
