Described for Benefit of New York; --ers by Recent Putnam Visitor.


 The following letter. apparentIy written by a recent visitor to Put nam. appeared in a New York paper on Thursday:
 New Workers are familiar with the property" sandwich that validates a tot of whiskey or a bottle of beer on Sunday, and it irks them; but you must come up into Israel Putnam's country-the old hero, by the way. used to keep a tavern in these parts ito learn what Sabbath observance can come to mean. Arriving at Put nam on Sunday with thirst that seemed to be legitimate even under the blue laws Of Connecticut I ap- piled at a humble lunch counter for glass of ginger ale. sarsaparnla or any other soft drink It was about o'clock in the evening and not a drug store was open. although Put nam is a factory town with a popu- lation of 5000 or more. The lunch counter man. a sleek young Italian, was plainly embarrassed by my re- quest. T can't serve you.s he said unless you order something to eat" T don't want beer" I said. but some soft drink. I'm thirsty as the devil!' The Italian bent down and whispered with awe in his tones: "Tf4 sold you soft drink without food I'd be up agalnst me or S1Oi Well, I stormed out of that place and said things about Putnam At the hotel where I put up with a friend they served us some ginger ale only after a palaver and scrutiny. Everybody took us for "spottersn in that Spot less Town.
 The hotel clerk. getting confidential said it was all the fault of the civic league, which was trying to exercise the demon of unrighteousness in Put nam. No man could do a days labor on the Sabbath without paying the penalty. one Seventh day Adventist excepted. It was a misdemeanor to sell soda or mineral water without sandwich. and the sandwich had to be bona -fide. Down in old Norwich few hours before I had seen bottled lager beer served openly at the hotel table, but that seemed less strange when I read the placards on the elms left over from the 250th anniversary and learned that everybody's ances- tor kept a tavern in the old days.
 Putnam shocked me. but it was Pomfret that made tradition reel. Who goes to Pomfret makes a pilgrimage to the den where young Israel slew the wolf. All the way up the hill for two miles from the Center you en- counter signs pointing you to the

ATTENDANCE 6t,4t4.
Over Eight Thousand Went to See Automobile Races on Closing Day of Danbury Fair.

total of 61,41i people attended the Danbury fair last week, figures that have been exceeded but once since the fair was established, forty one years ago. The attendance of ,67 sos in 1907 still stands as the rec ord. says the News.
 More magnificent weather than that of last week could not have been de- sired It usually is the case that there are one or more cloudy days during the week. even if rain does not fall. but the sun was not obscured by clouds for a moment last week. Ev- cry morning dawned with clear skies and the temperature throughout the week was more like that of June than October. It was a remarkable week from the weather standpoint.
 The automobile races, the principal feature of Saturdays programme. at- tracted an unusually large crowd to the fair for the closing day. The attendance was s.523. which has been exceeded only once, and that was In 1903, when it rained on Friday and thousands of Danbury people who were unable to visit the fair on that day went on Saturday.
 It is figured that fully 1.500 of Sat urday's crowd came to the fair in au- tomobiles. the majority of them from distant points. Three hundred cars were parked on the grounds during the afternoon. The greatest day for automobiles was Thursday, when an actual count showed that there were six hundred cars on the ground. There were between three and four hundred there on Friday. It is estimated that the number of automobiles that en- tered the grounds during the week ex- ceeded 1S0O and that they brought nearly 10000 people to the fair.

 No woman should submit to surgi- cal operation, which may mean death, until she has given Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, made exclusive ly from roots and herbs, fair trial.
 This famous medicine for women has for thirty years proved to be the most valuable tonic and renewer of the female organism Women resid- ing in almost every city and town in the United States bear willing testi- mony to the wonderful virtue of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. It cures female ills, and creates radi- ant, buoyant female health. If you are ill, for your own sake as well as those you love, give it trial.
 Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass, invites all sick women to write her for advice. Her advice is free, and always helpful.
