AS q Pa He Doesn't Shine.

There may be some family reason
to explain the attack of George 3.
Chambers father, but there is moth
ing in the letter to justify it's publ
cation. It is most drivel. We are not
filed with admiration for George B.
Chambers work in this campaign, and
are 3istructful of his disinterestedness.
but he is about the best spelIbinder
the republicans have and is carrying
the burden of the oFatorical battle in
q capable way. His prominence in
public life during the past two years
has been great and creditabIe enough
to deserve the silence at least of 9th
er members of the family who may
differ with him. So far as his publi2
career goes he has done nothing de-
serving of such humiliation. There
are good examples to follow in cases
Of this kind. where the inferior mem
bers of the family have yielded, not
their principles, but the aggressive
public expression of them in submits
sion to the superior claims of the
most active and distinguished mem
bsr. Mr.. Chambers fathers letter
ought to win sympathy for him if not
for his cause.-Waterbury American

LIFTING THE PRICE OF BACON.
And the Reason Given for Doing 1t.

1t does not take much to advance a
price every little while and an expIa-
nation of the recent increase in the
price of bacon illustrates the point
surprisingly. The price Of bacon, as
the public has already discovered, has
gone up as much as five cents on the
pound, where the best grade is con-
cerned, and almost as much on the
lower grades. Here is an explanation
that has been offered by man who
has his being in a bacon atmosphere:
There was such an enormous crop
Of corn this year that it behocved the
hog raiser to feed his stock almost ex-
clusively on corn. though in normal
years Stops have been largely depend
ed upon. As result Of the corn diet,
the hogs have grown to unusual sizes
And here is where the question of
bacon, and the price of bacon. comes
in. 1t seems that a hog must not
weigh more than $50 to 175 pounds if
it is t. yield the best grade of bacon
according to the expert whose fig
ures and facts we are taking into con-
sideration But the hogs this year
have attained q weight of from 205
to 300 pounds; that is to say, the hogs

GOODWIN TO CHASE.
Replies to a Recent Attack in New
Haven.

Charles A. Goodwin has written the
following letter to P. w. Chase of
New Haven and it appeared in the
Register of Saturday evening:
To Mr.. Prentice w. Chase, New Ha-
ven, Conn:
Dear Sri have received a copy of
the New Haven Register under date
October 81, containing an open letter
to me from you. I do not recall even
claiming. publicly or privately, that
the mantle of George L. Lilley has
fallen upon me Had I not agreed
with Governor LiIIey in substance as
to the measures he desired to advo-
cate should not have been his execu-
tive secretary. J. Pierpont Morgan is
my first cousin once removed; he is
also probably the ablest man that
Connecticut ever produced. You say
in your letter: Nov, sir, in view of
the fact that you are a relative of
Mr. Morgan, a cousin in fact. and in
view of the fact that this cousin was
in Hartford the day when the repub-
Ifcan convention which nominated you
was in session, and was aiding you in
your efforts to get this nomination"
etc Mr. Chase if is not true that Mr.
Morgan was in Hartford the day of
the convention and you know 1t, and
Won should not make reckless asSer-
lions of this kind without giving the
source of your information. Never
theless, I viii say that if Mr. Morgan
had been in the city of Hartford on
the day of the convention. he would
have been there for a lawful purpose,
absolutely disconnected with my cam
paign. I am sorry that you who pre-
tend to have been a friend of George
L. lilley. and a republican, are lend
ing your assistance to a campaign Of
MISREPRESENTATION which was only
surpassed by the campaign against
him I should not have taken the
trouble to have answered your letter.
except that you made q definite ale
CATION of fact which / know is IN
true I am always willing to answer
representations of fact; I am unwilling
to answer such reckless rumors as
have been circulated by those opposed
to my candidacy. AS you chose the
medium of a newspaper to commune
cate with me- I am doing the same.
Yours truly.

NORWOOD HEARD FROM.

A former Norwich man, who was
amused by The Bulletins reference
to the selection of Norwood, Mass as
a trial town for a postal savings
bank, calls our attention to the fact
that it is a live and progressive place.
He says:
II have heard the Rose Of New
England harped upon for good many
years, but never saw the real rose of
New England till I landed here May
30th 1910"
But as Norwood has population
OF only 5000 and a grand list of only
a bout $14000.0G she is in no sense
yet rival Of Norwich
With reference to the results Of the
experiment Of the government, he
says:
'.The people Of Norwood are not 60
ing TO take their money out Of local
sa wings banks to loan it to Uncle Sam
a. two per cent. when they are now
getting three and a half and four.
The postal savings bank will not be
such a bowling success here" ..
It seemed to The Bulletin rather
ridiculous that such place should
have been selected for the experim ent
in the old Bay state. when it has iso-
lated. banlSless sections where the
utility and success of such a service
could have been more sensibIy. and,
doubtless, mere successfully, tried.

people of Hartford that my work in
public life, whether l am elected gov
ernor or not, viii continue to be in
opposition to corrupt methods of ev-
cry kind. l have had some expert
ence in state matters, but this has
been my first state campaign, and the
conditions of century are not
changed in night. If in my work
for you in Hartford there has been an
earnest of larger possibilities, at least
weigh carefully what l have told you
this evening for this is not campaign
talk but my own personal feeling
expressed to you with all sincerity.
Respecting what I have said before, I
ask Judge Baldwin TO place the evil
dence he has at once in the hands of
the states attorney for Hartford coun-
ty or some other proper officer. and
again / say that evidence is not affi-
davits of what A said about what b
said about what c said about what d
did. because affidavits will be only
evidence in this sense-that they are
evidence of the insincerity of those
who present them
Judge Baldwin in his Norwich adj
dress declared his faith in the honor
and integrity of the republican nomi-
nee. and when his audience showed
evidence of accepting his statements
as satiricaI. he affirmed in all candor
that Mr.. Goodwin. he believed, was
too much Of a gentleman to counte-
nance the corrupt practices reported
to have taken place in the republican
convention In view of this, the later
reference to Mr. Goodwins stupidity
with reference to these practices does
not Increase his opponents reputation
as d gentleman.
Mr.. Goodwin calls for thorough in
vestigation and proof. and it is up
to the compliments to furnish it be-
fore any republican regulates the

A BURNING ERUPTION
FROM HEAD TO FEET

Four years ago I suffered severely
with a terrible eczema, being mass Of
sores from head to feet and for six
weeks confined to my bed. During that
time I suffered continual torture from
itching and burning. After being given
up by my doctor I was advised to try
the Cuticura Remedies. After the first
bath with Cuticura Soap and applica-
ton of Cuticura Ointment l enjoyed the
first good sleep during my entire illness.
j also used Cuticura Resolvent and the
treatment was continued for about three
weeks. At the end of that time | was
able TO De about the house, entirely
cured, and have felt no i'll effects since.

from any form Of skin trouble to try ths
Cuticura Remedies as I know what they

me that perfect ladies are few and far

such a place must be a perfect lady
But is she? Far from it, ma'am. If
you want to find perfect ladies you

such matters. I'm afraid that with

Oh very well, ma am, I'm sure /

have the right to demand all sorts of
angelic things in a girl, it seems to
me the girl has a right to satisfy her
self that you are q perfect lady. You
may be pleasant enough when you're
engaging a girl and then when she
brings her trunk and it put into a
dark bedroom in the garnet you may
be so naughty that you can't look low
enough to see her. and if she was the
dirt under your feet you couldn't treat

And so. according to our truthful
authority there is a scarcity in AL
