Never read or sew directly In front OF
the light OF window, the better light
being that that comes from above or

Too much light is an evil. just as is
scant light. It creates a glare that
pains and eonfuses the sight.

NEW JERSEYS ACTIVITY

If New Jersey has cooled down on the mosquito question, it Is not inert upon the automobile issues. There have been six different additions made to the law by the legislature and in future it will be a misdemeanor for anybody, whether a regular employe or member of the family or a friend or what-not, to drive an automobile without the consent of the owner; to drive one when in an intoxicated con- dition, even though there be no reck- lessness or lack of care: to drive one for a bet or wager or in order to break the speed record; or to act as driver after a license has been revoked; fail ure to display registration numbers or the display of false Identification num- bers is also made g. misdemeanor.
 Twenty-Five miles an hour is fixed as the maximum in the open country where the houses are.non an average one hundred feet apart, and another reducing the fees allowed justices of the peace, constables and witnesses to such a low figure that there will be no incentive for making wholesale ar rests; this law also throws the court Np'AS A1OA- tA4C Ng4ll AeAlAlell4L III NeLSH Ll4b judgment Is reversed upon appeal.
 The law permits non-residents to go into the state of New Jersey for eight consecutive days, or for four periods of two days each in any one calendar year, upon the payment of a fee of S1 for @ certificate; license may be ob- tained upon written application and, iE case .he nonresident motorist is properly registered in his own state, he need not take out a drivers license in New Jersey; the permit granted by that state will be sufficient to enable him to operate a motor vehicle"
 These are commendabIe changes, and they point the way to better con- ditions fer the public and the owners Of motor carriages. Other states will do well to follow suit.

TENDERNESS.

Tenderness is a good quality-that gentleness which not only cares for the welfare of human beings, but for lite wherever it abounds-whereyer IL beautifes. When the frost has been dispelled and the earth mellowed, the sun calls up the wild flowers which will soon dot the greensward by day as the stars dot the heavens by night and those who go out to pick them have learned a new lesson. They do not, as of old, wander about, plucking Ehem up by the roots and exterminat- ng them, but realizing their beauty sake knife or scissors and carefully clip the stems, leaving the roots in the earth to grow and strengthen and increase their flowers another year. Vandalism Is getting to be a thing of the past. Real lovers of wild flowers do not now forget those who may come after them, but leave nestling in the sod the life which may blossom in beauty for years to come. The sweet arbutus has been rooted up un- til 1t is scarce, but of all of Mays wild flowers it is the sweetest and if those who gather it will also foster it, it may respond to the sun for ages yet to come.

A MILL BOYS TRIuMPH.

The Boston Athletic associations Marathon race On Monday of this week was won by a 19-year-old mill boy from Nashua, N. H., who won the 25- mile race in 2 hours 53 minutes and 36 As seconds, in such shape that it is assumed that he could have run at least ten miles further He worked days and ran for exercise nights, do- ing ten and eleven miles after a days work. He ate bread and butter with now and then a little meat, and took one cup Of tea with each meal. There was but one runner in the whole 35 who showed more endurance. His longest run prior to this event was IS miles. run for a trial, when he took a day off. Henri Renaud says he is American for speed and a Frenchman for gameness and he thinks that will hold them for Awhile. He has dem onstrated what can be done where there is a will if the diet is lean and the opportunities for training as poor as they can be. He ran himself into fame inside of three hours and can never again be a dark horse.

A Man of the PeopIe.

Governor Lilley came from the ranks. He illustrated the possibilities that ex- ist today for every earnest, honest, in- dustrious and intelligent American boy however humble his origin and how ever limited the advantages given him by fortune. What he had gained he had earned by work and worth and in his start he owned nothing to the ad- ventitious help of wealth or station. So far as he had been spared in the administration of the governorship he had shown the same earnest zeal for the public welfare and for the accom- plishment of reform that had been his characteristic in all his public life and which brought upon him the crushing power of a political and finan- cial cabal, which determined upon his destruction. and whose abuse heaped upon him in Washington and at home was the indirect If not the immediate cause of his physical failure-Bridge- port Standard.

 Now, wait a minute, Johnny" said his employer, wheeling around in his chair and putting on his glasses to sur vey the small pleader. Don't tell me that dear old lady Is dead. I couldn't stand it. You ought to be careful about rushing in here with such bad news, especially at this season of the year."
 T was just going to say that my grandmother is-"
 T remember her very well, Johnny. She came here with you when I hAed you and she seemed to be very pleas ant and agreeable sort of grandmother to have. 1 can hardly believe that she would die right now-when Kling is holding out and Evers Is out of the game. too. It isn't bit like her, John ny. I can scarcely believe it."
 The office boy squirmed uncomfort- ably and studied the knob of the door with marked attention. Brown wink ed at his partner, who came in through the private entrance. Then he return ed to the charge.
 "Of course, I have known grand mothers who were thoughtless enough to die right dE the start of the season, but it struck me that your grandmoth- CT wasn't that sort"

HIa sterIlna Manhood.

George Lilley died the governor of Connecticut. He wanted the office, as we believe and have tried to show, chiefly to vindicate his own estimate of himself to prove his right to seek it and his power to fill it worthily, and to justify the loyalty of his friends under severe trial. But he wanted 1t also, we think, to make up for the things that were denied him in his preparation for life's duties, as an honor the more valuable because the road to it was so hard and steep, and for the. happiness and satisfaction of his aged mother, his devoted wife and his faithful sons, whose pride and confidence in him and a crown of corQ- pensation for all that he went through. Could his assailants have pursued him into the refuge of his home they might have been surprised to find In its gentleness and affection evidence as convincing as the stiff fight he put up against them of his sterling manhood.
 In the sympathy born of so untime- ly a death, the commonwealth stands beside his loved ones in their faith in his honor and goodness and sees the man as he looked to those who knew him as he was.-Waterbury American.

 "Well, well, I am surprised!" said hi employer, affably. T had supposed you would keep up to date on all that. But then. I guess your work here has kept you so busy you haven't had time to read the pink sheet, eh?' And he winked again at his smiling partner. So you want to get off tomorrow aft ternoon%' he continued Maybe we gould have fixed that up all right, John ny, but the trouble is that l want Co get off myself tomorrow afternoon. It isn't my grandmother that's bothering me, but I've got date out on the west side in the afternoon that l wouldn't like to miss, and I don't see how we could both get away at the same time.

 Tt would be too late next week." said Johnny, eagerly. You see my
 "Ah, yes, I suppose 1t wouldn't do to postpone 1t a week." said his employb-, thoughtfully. They usually have the funeral within a day or two, don't they? Well, we all have our troubles, Johnny. I'm afraid they'll have to bury your grandmother without you. It would be @ long, hard trip for you out to the cemetery, anyhow. You'd be much better off here in the office, with nothing to do but watch the tele- phone for me while I'm out at the ball game. You knew was going to the ball game, didn't you. Johnny?'
 "Yes, sir" said Johnny. T heard you maxim the date over the telephone with MT. Robinson and that's why I thought I could get away the same aft ernoon. You see, 1t was on account of that my grandmother"

LONG HOLSTERS.

The lobster fishermen of Boston are surprised by the size of the Holsters which they are daily catching. for they exceed in weight anything that has been seen in the market for years and they have been lower in price there the past week than for several years. An experienced lobsterman is quoted as having said: T get from three to six Holsters day now of a size which a year ago I would have considered enormous. I don't know how you'n explain Our traps are much the same and the law against small fry has not been in operation long enough to make any difference in the size or at least affect the size of this years catch"
 As Sunday dainty the lobster holds a firm place in Connecticut homes and it is good news to learn that they are being taken in largep sizes than for years and that the prices promise to ,un lower than they have in recent times.
 Considering the great increase In the number daily caught and the bigger size it Is evident that they come from some unexploited beds where they have been sporting and fattening for years.

Hia caresr Was rranin-

Governor LiIley's career was tragic in the extreme.
 By his own magnificent abilities as a business man he attained success. He was an honest man and a just man or this success would not have been possible. His domestic happiness was perfect; for there never was a fam fly the members of which were more devoted to one another. All the prizes which a man In private life could win had been won by Mir. Lilley before he was induced to enter public life.
 It was not the lure of fame which drew him into the maelstrom of polit- ical contention; it was not the desire for popular adulation; it was not the longing for group or power. The op- portunity to enter public life with all its turmoil, with all it's bitter jealouh- sies, it's hates, it's cunning webs of treachery and falsehood, was to him a call to duty which must be obeyed. Once he had entered upon this career which was to prove too exhausting for him to endure he kept his face ever

He Lovad Hla Wors.

The life story of the governor is known to all. His splendid fight in congress againt graft, dishonesty and mearness is too recent to call for re- hearsaL That fight undoubtedly cost him his life. It aroused the public conscience and awakened q determina- tion to demand character, fearlessness and fidelity to duty in officials.
 The death of the governor at this time is peculiarly sad and almost trag- ic.
 He was deeply in love with his work, intent on making the most of his op- portunties; he was fully confirming the hopes of his friends and winning the approval of his enemies. But death put an end to his activities and his en- deavors and brought to an untimely close a useful, busy, clean and honor ably life.
 A flood of sympathy goes out to the aged mother, the devoted wife and loy- al family.-Bristol Press.

CIRCULATION
DUST TO DUST AND ASHES TO
 ASHES,

The people have been asked to stand fn silence today a few moments-to let Connecticut stand still as a memorial to Governor Lilley, whom we hold in such deen regard. and 1t will be done with fervor and a feeling that this Is che place where the silence of a whole people will be more eloquent than speech
 Governor George l.. Lilley lived as if he realized that the truest end of life is to know tho life that never ends" and while he made no pretence of greatness, we in this day and hour take oognizanoe of his goodness, and we sense that to him the cultivation oE kindness was a valuable part of the business of life. We all feel that he was a true man. and if we are not laying away a saint we dare to claim that we are returning to earth the body of a risen brother.
 As we remember him refusing to say mean things of those who reviled him or to be guilty of a retaliatory act against those who seemed intent upon robbing him of everything-even his good name-we realize that he manifested the spirit of One who taught us the brotherhood of man and the fatherbood of God. We know nothing of Governor Lilley's religious views except what we saw gleaming out Of his lne in the midst of strife and persecution and in his daily commun- II 401f fe -p that practical value to which words are capable of adding nothing.
 While we stand in silence and tears beneath the half-masted flag today. he may be standing in peace where the choir invisible is rendering sweet music and where the well done, good and faithful servant" Is being said to those who seemed. while here, to have lost the battle, but who there are known to have won it.
 Beautiful floral forms and grief assuaging hymns and impressive words mark this day of the last sad rites; and as Governor Lilley is committed to earth the commhtal service will be read and the living will go about their business, but George Lilley will not be forgotten, for the future owes to him e true estimate of his character and his work and the ranking which true manhood deserves.

 curse,
