EMBROIDERY HINTS
 TO HELP THE AMATEUR.

A thing to remember in embroidery is always to fasten- your thread by running it backward and forward on the wrong side of the embroidery and then to cut the thread and start afresh on the next design.
 Never carry the thread from one de- sign to another, as it invariably shows when the embroidery is done up.
 If the material is sheer it shows through and if heavy it makes an ugly ridge.
 Afternoon tea cloths with crochet lace borders are among the newest patterns in this department of the linen outfitting.
 Many women are making edgings for this purpose, and some of the pat terms are fine and beautiful
 The crochet cotton should suit the fabric on which the edging is to go, and when the lace is worked with a fine crochet hook a more delicate pat tern is the result.
 A rose crochet design with leaves Is a popular edging and one that is com- paratively simple to do.
 The corners are made to lie flat and are crocheted separately as a general thing and the four sides made to be joined

The Cold and the Will.

What charming shivery days we have been having! Blue skies, quiet air, and the soul of the iceberg all in one There are two things that men, ace the joy of these natural glories, and they are the lack of proper clothes and the lack of natural gas. These things, and especially the latter, make the glorious cold days seem harsh.
 We do not incline to belittle the cruel inconvenience, but to regard it as the opportunity for the exertion of that unconquerable spirit, which can raise the thermometer ten degrees in ten minutes. To illustrate: We asked a man on the street recently, who was out on the street without an overcoat saren't you cold?" There was a tri- umph in his eye as he proudly an- swered: No, sir; not bit of it. don't mind the cold"
 Here was the triumph of mind over matter. That man was cold as we were, but he didn't know it. He had made up his mind that he would whip out that cold day, and he did. He was just as proud, yes, prouder of not hav ing an overcoat, than we were of hav- ing one. While we were talking, a brisk breeze. filled with a thousand invisible razors, rushed around the cor 7 ner and fairly froze the roots of our hair, but he only smiled and said:s AAh, isn't that nice ?"-Ohio State Journal.

Dr. B. Halstead Scott, of Chica- go, H., says "I have prescribed your Castoria often for infants during my practice and find it very satisfactory"
 Dr. William Belmont, of Clevc- land, Ohio, says $ Your Castoria stands first in it's class. In my thirty years of practice I can say l never have found anything that so filled the place."
 Dr. R. J. Hamlen, of Detroit, Mich, says I prescribe your Cas- toria extensively as 1 have never found anything to equal it for chil- dren's troubles. I am aware that there are limitations in the field, but I always see that my patients get Fletcher's.
 Dr. Charming H. Cook, of Saint Louis, Mo-, says: "I have used your Castoria for several years past in my own family and have always found it thoroughly efficient and never objected to by children, which is great consideration in view of the fact that most medi- cines of this character are obnox- ious and therefore difficult of ad- ministration. As a laxative I consider it the peer of anything chat I ever prescribed"

(Continued from Page 12.) NlNETY-NINTH BIRTHDAY
Celebrated on Friday by Miss. Annie
 Conant of Spring Hill.

Miss Annie Conant observed the 99th anniversary of her birth Friday at the home of MT. and Mrs. R. W. Gardi- ner of Spring Hill. Miss Conant en- joys the distinction of being the old est resident of the town of Mansfield, and one of the oldest in eastern Con- necticut. She is a native of Mansfield and has always resided there. Mrs. Sarah Conant, aged 96, who died on Sunday. December 5, at the home of Mir. and Mrs. Gardiner, was a sister. Miss Conant enjoys fairly good health but is unable to leave her room. She reads some. and her sight is good, but her hearing is somewhat affected. She is a direct descendant of Roger Co., nant. who came to America from Dew onshire, England, in 1923, and is said to have built the first house at Sa- lem, Mass.
 No especial demonstration marked the day. although a number of neigh bors called to congratulate Miss Co., nant and leave some pleasant remem brances in the form of gifts.

FIaIuient EruCtati0nS
 and Offensive Breath
ReLiier Many People Obnoxious To Others, and Cause Them
 To Be Summed

The eructatien or beiching of gas from the stomach is a very common circumstance. and may depend in some cases upon the nature of the food in gested, without the existence of any deviation from health. In cases of ex- treme 1atulence, the eructation of large quantities of gas may take place, forming a source of considerable in- convenience. and frequent annoyance, although affording some relief to the 4eeling of distension that exists in the stomach.
 Sometimes the gas discharged is of a fetid character-may be so foul, in persons presence almost unbearable to others Owing to imperfect secreting action, or to a defective state of the gastric juice putrefactive changes take place among the contents of the stom- ach, and as the result sulphuretted hydrogen and other such foul gaseous products of decomposition, are evolved Hence the eructations or belchings pre- sent the offensive odor of decayed ami anal and vegetable matter, and the vic tim of this deplorable condition usual ly has continuous bad breath, which ds so disagreeable as to cause them to be summed by their friends.
 The medical profession invariably Hrescribes and recommends the use of (ibdPCohl TUT IAe correction ana cure or fhis condition. which has often been the means of causing people to avoid social intercourse, and the pleasures of the theatre and other public places of amusement. This deprivation is, however, wholly unnecessary, as char < coal Is a wonderful absorbent of gases, and possesses the power of absorbing one hundred times it's own volume; and when Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges, which are made from the best willow charcoal are taken into the stomach, every particle of the foul gases exist ing there is removed by absorption, decomposition and fermentation of food is prevented, and the stomach and en- tire intestinal system is made pure and antiseptic, all disease germs and mi- crobes being destroyed and removed.
 As natural consequence the breath, which before was so offensive is now purified, and the person who formerly felt constrained to remain out of com pGny and away from public meetings, has no longer to contend with such a drawback, but mingles freely in the society of his friends, feeling assured that Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges. when used freely after meals, will absorb and prevent the generation of foul stomach gases, and purify the infected breath, making. it sweet and pure < Secure a package of these wonderful lozenges from your druggist at once for 25 cents, and note how quickly they purify the breath and prevent the bel ching of foul gases.

ALLIANCE FRANCHISE.
Second Lecture in Course Before Bridgeport Society by Distinguished Frenchman.

The second lecture of the Alliance Francaise took place at the Stratfield a dn Bridgeport Wednesday evening, with a large audience in attendance. The lecturer was M. Camille Enlart, curator of the museum of the Troca- dero, Paris. His subject was the arch itecture and life of the monasteries of the Middle Ages.
 M. Enlart has made special studies of architecture, particularly the arch dtecture of the monasteries. His leg ture was Illustrated by views, made mostly from photographs taken Ly himself.
 After a brief introduction in whieh he detailed the organization of the orders, their history. their daily pro- grammes, he proceeded to give by means of the views a most graphic idea of the life of devotion led by the monks. He showed the cloisters refectories, chapels. chapter rooms of the various monasteries of Italy, Spain, and especially France and Cyp- rus. In these monasteries are found some of the most beautiful examples of Norman and Gothic architecture to be found anywhere, and by reason of this the views were most attractive Bridgeport Telegram.

Dr. W. F. Wallace, of Bradford, N. H., says: "I use your Castoria in my practice. and in my family"
 Dr. Wm. I. McCann of Omaha, Neb., says !" As the father of thir- teen children 1 certainly know something about your great medi- cine and aside from my own family experience, I have, in my years of practice, found Castoria a popular and efficient remedy in almost every home"
 Dr. Howard James, of New York, City, says : " It is with great pleas ure that I desire to testify to the medicinal virtue of your Castoria. have used it with marked benefit in the case of my own daughter, and have obtained excellent results from it's administration to other children in my practice"
 Dr. J. R. Clausen, of Philadel- phia, Pa., says "The name that your Castoria has made for itself in the tens of thousands of homes blessed by the presence of children, scarcely needs to be supplemented by the endorsement of the medical profession, but I, for one, most heartily endorse it and believe it an excellent remedy"
