FireieSe Cooking

The use of the FirelesS Cook Stove
will be demonstrated in this city in
the near future and cooking lessons
given free. The old cookers we're
very wonderful. They would cook
with ninety percent of the fuel used
in ordinary cooking.
The new Calonic will do practical
ly anything that gas, coal, oil. wood,
or electrict range will do, with from
seventy-five to ninety percent of the
amount of fuel. ~ItROAsTs, BAKEs,
BoILs, sTEAMs and sTEwS. 1t will
roast beef deliciouSly and does not
require basting. 1t will bake cakes.
pies, and bread. 1t will bake BoS-
ton beans as they have never been
baked since the days of the brick
oven.
The only fire required is to start
the food cooking, that is to have it
come to a boil, if boiled or steamed
and to heat the steatite radiators, If
it is to be baked or roasted. The
saving of time is great, asno stirring
or watching is necessary. 1t will
not BURN. The quality of the food
is very much improved. Watch
for the announcement of the time

these stoves.

A Possible Six Numer Jackson
Club Entertainment
Course For Next
Season

The entertainment committee
wish to express its grateful appre-
citation of the very liberal patronage
extended to it for the season now
closing.
The pledges secured at the close
of last season lessened the work of
the committee to such a degree that
they will again ask their patrons to
assist them in the same way.
More and more our patrons re-
alize that it is greatly to their adj
vantage to secure season tickets.
Next Wednesday evening. Feb. "a,
Montaville Flowers will give the
closing number tor this season,
It is earnestly hoped that at that
time all will be ready to sign pledg-
es for tickets for next seasons
course.
If a sufficient number of pledges
are secured at that time to warrant
the action, the committee will Sc
cuae six attractions instead of five
for next year.
The price of season tickets will,
however, remain the same, $3.50 for
adults and 81 for pupils of the pub
lie schools.
The committee are pleased that
they have been able to secure Adrian
Newens for next year. The other
talent is not yet decided upon.

IN ROTTEN ROW.

~ IN ROTTEN ROW.
In Rotten Row the poor ships lie
Pathetic .hulks gainst the brazen sky.
Drowning life through on lazy tide,
At anchor the vanquished vessels ride.
The surf on the reef vents a hideous
sneer
At her oceans victims resting there
Never again to plough the seas,
Nor faunt their flags in the bellying
breeze.
The good ships come and the good
ships go
With neer salute for Rotten Row.
But the green weed loves their un-
kempt sides,
And the sea-worm hither and thither
glides.
At night when the moon breaks
through the clouds,
1t chases ghosts from the feeble
shrouds,
OF men who down to great seas did go
With the broken tenants of Rotten
Row.

MEN DRESS WELL NOWADAYS.

Dress is no more a problem for the average man. Thee last few years have witnessed marvellous advances in the tailoring art as applied to making clothing for men, ready to wear. The most skilled craftsmen in tie country have been located and employed by the greatest tailoring concerns. Enormous salaries are paid for successful designers of styles. Every operation in the mak- ing of a garment has been special ized to the finest point of perfect production. The leading cloth mills weave thousands of yards of patterns especially for the great clothing makers. The ready for service clothier is now the man who shows the ex Dasive weaVes and colorings, not the cuit-at- -a-timee tailor. Thus it is that today man may walk into a store such as Meigs & Co. $, and for a few dollars select a suit which in material, tailoring, style, fit and service is the marvel of the age, combining the experience and skill and brains of the vast organization trained to 2Oth century perfection. No wonder men dress better now adays than ever before, and for less money. Meigs & Co.,, of Bridgeport, are showing a tremendous range of the new Summer models in high colors, plain and silk-striped blue serges, beautiful gray clay Worsteds,
 and silk mixtures, at prizes men
 gladly pay for first class clothes such as Meigs & Co. have the reputation | for sellng,
