The Population of Connecticut.

The comptroller of the state has re- ceived almost complete returns of the enum eration of children of school age in Connecticut. These offer oppor- tunity for a number of interesting studies. In the census of 1900 it was found that the ratio between school children and total population was one to 4.56, so that if the total number of school children were multiplied by 4.56 the result would show the num- Der of people in the state.
 The school enumeration for 1909 shows a total of 242,663 children, and these, if we assume the old ratio, rep resent a total population of 1,106,5 3 for the state. This is especially timely in view of the very conservative esti- mate thrown out yesterday by Pro lessor Bailey, the supervisor of the census, who put 1,050.000 as his fore cast. If the ratio holds. the popula- tion will exceed the supervisors esti- mate by between 56,00O and 57,000.
 The increase over 1908 is 4,962, which represents a total gain for the year of about 22,626. It is note worthy that every county in the state shows net gain in children enumerat- ed In proportion to total population Hartford county shows the greatest gain, although the gain in New Haven is actually greater, as that county contains so many more people. Out of the state. three counties, Hartford. New Haven and Fairfield, show some thing over 4.45O-another suggestive Illustration of the drift to cities. If the state has increased to the extent intinnated by he school enumeration, then it's increase has exceeded 21 per cent. in the decade, and, if we are not mistaken, that is about as fast as the country as a whole is supposed to have grown If this proves correct, then Connecticut will have the same relative standing in the house of rep reSentatives after the 1910 census as before. There has been talk of re- ducing our esentation.-Hartford Courant.

The Bow BalIinqer.

In his Sassy way, Alfred Henry Lewis gives this bit from Secretary Ballinger's life in Kansas in a cur rent Farm and Preside number:
 Not that his nose was never be- tween the covers of a book. While his pony dozed and the cattle grazed, Boy Ballinger dipped blindly into Latin and Greek. He recited his Latin to an erudite hospital steward at Fort Larned. Once a week he galloped sew enty miles to go over his Greek with clergyman adrift in those parts. For there were more stage stations than school houses. bullwhackers than ped agogues, in Kansas during those far days
 ''Greekl Latin! There's a deal of educational claptrap abroad on the that claptrap more evident than in that business of Latin and Greek. And yet that seventy canter on the trail of Greek shows energy, en- terprise, force
 Boy Ballinger, no one knows how, put in three years at the Kansas state university, and later went through the Washlburn college at Topeka Odd hours he read Burns. and, having touched 21, voted for James A. Gar field. He talked with Senator Ingalls,. That togaed henhawk said. Go to Williams college. It's a poor bows seminary
 Boy BaIIinger pointed east for Williams college, nose tip-tilted as though somewhere in the distance he snelled an orchard. At Williams he ran a students restaurant kept boarding house, pumped a church or gan-for considera tions fiscal rather than musical or reIigjous-and in forty other ways jumped sidewise for what coin was needed to pull him through. In the end he won his sheepskin. At the same time he won and welded Miss Bradley, the sister of a class mate. The latter was the more inn portant triumph. I'll back a marriage license against a college sheepsl1in any day when it comes to sending a man forward in this world"

For months Norwich readers have seen the constant expression of praise for Deans Kidney Pills, and read about the good work they have done in this locality. Not another remedy ever produced such convincing proof Of merit.
 Mrs. Catherine Hogan, 22 Hickory Street, Norwich, Conn, says: For some time I was severely troubled by kidney complaint I had pains and aches across my back and an inde- scribable feeling of weakness all through my body. I tried numerous remedies but did not obtain relief. I was finally told about Doan's Kidney Pills and procuring a supply from N- D. Sevin X Sons drug store I took them according to directions.
