THE
ATTRACTIVENESS BEAUTY

The managers of the Connecticut State fair put the proper valuation upon the attractiveness of beauty. | They do not consider plain acres all that is required for a great and suc- cessful fair. By their direction a part of Charter Oak park has been given
 over to a landscape gardener who will
 construct an artificial lake with trees,
 underbrush and even the rock forma-
 tions of natural body of water. In it will be seen the ducks, geese, swans and other fowl of the home states with rarer fowl, wild and domestic from other parts of the country and from other lands Curiously enough, this little conceit has been greeted with the greatest enthusiasm among the work CTS at the fair even those whose own interests lie with the much more worldly lines.
 The country estate idea has been extended even farther and the borders of the lake have been planned with walks, shrubbery, trees and rustic fur niture of a little park in which the land fowl. as varied as the water birds. will be exhibited. The domestic poul- try in varieties so endless as utterly to astonish the amateur have their usual place as well as the dandifed little game cocks, the pheasants, quail cartridges and pigeons in every known variety. Some will be seen in the reg ular show cages but others running halt-confined in shady corners, in and out among the bushes and grass of little park.
 And when one thinks in this connec- tlon that there are forty-eight classes or land fowl and 296 for pigeons, this concept of beauty makes one feel the impulse to attend.

CIRCULATION
THE BULLETINS ILLUSTRATED

It is not surprising that great deal of interest is felt in the pictures which are to be a feature of the 25oth al- niyersary Jubilee book-what they are to be and what they are to repre- sent. Portraits of the officers and chairmen of committees and the guests of the city will number score or two and then there will be photographs of the decorated streets, the parade, the performances and objects of spe- cial interest, it is expected, will make about 50 pages. Where there are large assemblages of people the pictures will be made large enough to make the Identification of citizens possible. There are quite number of these photographs which will be given full page.
 It is the purpose of The Bulletin to make this book so attractive that it will be in prompt demand when it appears in December for delivery.
 The Bulletin has had submitted to it for examination about 200 photo graphs already and expects to have others submitted.
 The letterpress and the illustrations will represent the best part of the an- niversary celebration. and the book will be prized for it's accuracy and value by Norwich people everywhere.
 Order books on the coupon to be found in The Bulletins advertising columns.

TO CURE sTAMMERINc.

"An ingenious ex-stammerer tells in a lively strain of the expedient he has hit upon for mitigating the in firmity:
 !" I cured myself two years ago by initiating another persons way of talk ing forcing myself to speak in an unnatural tone of voice. One day a neighbor called on us. She was a southern lady and airy and affected in her manner. That night at dinner gave my sisters an imitation of how" Mrs. S." talked A short time after I began to stammer awfully again My little brother spoke up and said: Put on airs and talk like a dude, then you want stammer" I did so and discovered that I could talk straight. After that they gave me no peace, but forced me to talk like dude" In few months l was cured Two broth CTS have benefited by my method CD. One speaks as though tongue tied and the other drawls his words like a down-east Yankee. I still talk like dude" "'-E. R., in Chicago News.

CHICAGO, June 6. One hundred
Shriners from the Pacific Northwest
Coast arrived in the city today, en-
route to Louisville in a magnificent
special train, donated and stocked
with food by Edward H. Hartman as
the ransom he paid for being releas-
ed from "kidnapers" in Oregon one
year ago. When he started from Pc
lican Lodge, his hunting camp, for
Portland, orders were issued to side
track every other train. One of these
happened to carry a lot Of Portland
Shriners, and for being shunted to
a side track they decided to get even.
Harriman's train was tagged. He
was whisked off, taken into the woods
and initiated" good and plenty. He
promised to obey all orders, and when
the Shriners planned the Louisville
trip, they wrote him. asking what he
could offer in the way of accommo-
cations. He was game and sent the
following message to his general
transportation agent in Portland:
Give that - Shriner bunch any
thing they want Nothing too good
for them"
Hence the luxurious special train.
