Do If Now

Have that old-fashioned. unsanitary plumbing replaced by new and mod ern open plumbing. It will repay you in the increase of health and saving of doctors bills. Overhauling and re- fitting thoroughly done. Let me give you a figure for replacing all the old plumbing with the modern kind that will keep out the sewer gas. The work will be first-class and the price reasonable.

HOW WOMAN IS SPREADING
 HERSELF,

Most of us are not aware of how woman has broadened her sphere in the past half century. The home and the school house are far from being sufficient to meet the requirements of her genius. In this day she dares venture anywhere man does.
 At meeting of universal suffra gists in New York, recently, lecturer stat ed that:
 The plumbing trade is followed by 12s women in the United States.
 The dental profession is graced by 7se others.
 More than 1.OOC are architects and builders.
 More than $500 are in the pulpit.
 The law profession is followed by 1,O1O-
 Five hundred and forty-fve are car- penters.
 Eighty-four are stationary engi- neers.
 One hundred and sixty-seven are masons.
 One hundred and ninety-three do biacksmithing for a livelihood.
 More than 1900 work in mines. Undertaking is performed by 323 women.
 They. are running farms and fac- tories and mines and bakeshops and piloting ships in all parts of the globe. The women who are merely ornamen- tai are growing less in number every year. The world needs workers more than 1t needs ornaments.

HE END oE SUMMER.

It may be said of 1909 that we are nearing the end of a summer that never had a good beginning and lacked the chief essentials of good season. It has been summer which has been referred to as being singuler. It has not been just like any other summer in the memory of man. There mas mot been, dryer summer hereabouts for forty three years, and we certainly hope that there will be no duplicate or it for forty-three years more. Sep tember is acting in a way which in- dicates an early black frost; but the black frost will be the end of the gardens, likely, and the beginning of seven weeks of the kind Of bright and growing weather which we should have had in July and August.
 The summer resorts are all closing and the schools and colleges opening, and the ways of business are becom- ing normal and with the line storm about the goth the astronomers and almanac makers will declare the sea son at an end. It will make no diff ference how much like June October is, or how mild the weather remains until mid -November-the summer has made it's record and left us in rather regrettable condition for winter sub- sistence,

THE oNLooKERs.

The people who should be married, but are not, are invited by Phila- delphia paper to tell why they are not for series of prizes offered, and is hearing daily from large number Of them. There is one thing patent they all cherish a hope. The bar to matrimony seems to be conditions over which they have no control. Few of thAm complain that they have not the fnciting passion-most of them aver that they have not the ability to enter upon a matrimonial venture. There are quite as many ifs and ands mixed up in these replies as reasons why. Some, of course, find such pleasure in their occupations that they do not care to seek it elsewhere; and some are conscious of having and enjoying homes better than they can provide for another There seems to be a general opinion that love cannot stand alone-that it needs a lot of coin to stand on. These onlookers would do better if they would forget mathemat- ics and dive in. Cold calculations never yet promoted matrimony. Mat rimony that looks like foolhardiness at the start has sometimes worn a halo in the end. The peculiar fact is that those married would be sorely tried were they compelled to give a good reason how they came to do it.

THE PosToFFlcE DEFICIT.

The postal deficit of s2oOoo,oOO last year shows that there is rare chance to improve this great public service by cutting out unbusinesslike methods and doing business with a view of making accounts balance. There are too many people who think it is legit- innate to bleed the postoffice depart ment to death. It would be interest ing to know how many thousand tons of mall matter are hauled free that the railroads have to be paid for. A shortage of s50,000 day, Sundays not excepted, is too much, and it is not surprising that President Taft does not like it. or that Postmaster General Hitchcock is resolved to exert all his business ability to stop the leak The registration of letters below actual costs IS said to be accountable for S300e,000 of the loss, and it is hinted that the money order service is re- sponsible for some of it. Franked mat ter is responsible for much more. It is difficult task to inaugurate econ omies here that will accomplish the purpose, but the people hope MT. Hitchcock will succeed in his en- deavor

Marjorie was a pretty girl NOW,
 just as water runs down hill unalter- ably, so will pretty girls be discovered by wandering youths-and Teddy was extremely bored with life. anyway,
 when his eyes first fell upon her.
 Therefore his case was extremely se-

 He grabbed the young man just com

 emotion. Who he got out, who is
 that perfectly wonderful girl just get

 That's sMarjorie Whitcomb," said
 the detained young man. She lives farther down the lake"
 Well, she can have me-" said Ted
 dy as he watched her approach the
 hotel
 That was the acme of praise from
 him. He strengthened his tie nervous ly as she passed him. There was a good deal of excuse for his excitement.
 Marjorie Whitcomb had curly, butter
 gold hair, brown eyes with evenly pen
 ciled brows and a complexion that de-
 fled tan and sunburn. Moreover, she walked like a young goddess and, as a
 goddess, was used to adoration- Fifteen minutes later Teddy was lowing before her and ten minutes af- kter that was padding her down the
 lake in her own canoe.
 "He is certainly the swift boy.' commented the astonished young man who had been shanghaied into per-
 forming the introduction.
 In the three days of that week which
 Teddy passed at the lake he kept up
 the same speed, much to the disgust Of other young men who admired Mar jorie. He danced. swan, rowed and walked with her and did them all equally well. When he left everybody said that it looked like an awful attack of the real thing on both sides. Here tofore Marjorie had always distributed her favors, but she had seemed quite content to be with Teddy. Then the next weekend Teddy and
 his brother Bert came down together. To the arnazement of the rocking chair brigade, which had picked out the ht- l tie Summers girl to pair off with Bert, the brothers both shadowed Marjorie | for one day and then Teddy retired to | the background and the little Summers | girl, while his brother Bert duplicated | Teddy's record.

 BOOK

It is not surprising that a great deal of Interest is felt in the pictures which are to be a feature of the 25oth an- niversary Jubilee book-what they are to be and what they are to repre- sent. Portraits of the officers and chairnen 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 a number of these photographs which will be given a full page.
 It is the purpose. of The Bulletin to make this book so attractive that 1t 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.
