ELIZABETH.

Elizabeth was poor little girl.
She lived with her father. Her mother
died when she was one year old. At
last her father found that he was get
ting too old to work, and so Elizabeth
had to go and stay with her aunt. Her
aunt was good to her but finally her
father died and her aunt said she could
not keep her and the girl had to live
with an old step-mother Now, this
old lady had daughter who was very
ugly. She was so very ugly that no.
body liked her. The step-mother anu
her girl went to church and left the
girl to get dinner. But the girl did
not stay and get dinner, but went to
church too. but. got home before the
step-mother and girl did and got din
;ner started. When they got home
they said, There was a girl at church
who looked just like you" But Eliza
beth said that she had cousin here
that looked just like her, never letting
on that it was herself that was at
church. And that evening they sent
her out to gather wood and she did
not get the wood but went to where
her cousin lived and that is where she
stayed for the rest of her days.

GOOD SHOOTING COMINS
Game Birds Wintered Well and Are Now Seen With Big
 Brood of Young Ones
Special to The Farner.)

Southport, July 20-Dr J. L. Hetzel of this village is one of the most en- thusiastic sportsmen in this section, and one who keeps tabs on the condi- tion of the different varieties of game in this vicinity Yesterday he said that he believed that there would be good shooting in this vicinity this fall, for he has found that quail and part ridge are more plentiful this year than usually. The birds wintered well in spite of the severe weather. The Hungarian cartridges which were lib erated here have done well as far as can be seen, and many have been matching. It is believed that the propagation of the birds here has been a success. Sportsmen in this section favor the recent change in the game laws which lops off a week from each end of the open season and while it gives the sportsmen a chance to do some hunting still gets the State the income from the hunters licenses which it would not get if the shoot ing was entirely prohibited. Deer are plentiful here. They have been seen often in this section and only last week a doe and fawn were seen plac- idly feeding with herd of cows close by, the town They have done no ap- preciable injury to crops so far. Wood  than in many years In one swamp north of this village two focks of woodcock have been reared. Other swamps are reported to have shell tered broods varying in number from a dozen to 50. People here favor more liberal law concerning the shoot ing of migratory birds. They would like to see the open season on sea fowl continued till Feb. 15, or at least to the first It is believed here that hunters should have an opportunity to hunt sea fowl, such as malard, teal and wood duck in the spring as well as the fall.

Democratic View
 Of Reciprocity By Senator Smith
Special from United PressA

tSpeCidl ITOIIl CHlloQ PreSS.l .}
 Washington, July 2O-The Demo- cratic view of reciprocity was ex- plained to the Senate, today, by Sen ator Smith, (Dem., Mich.) who ad- vocated passage of the measure as well as enactment of the Democratic free list bill
 Tt is misleading and absurd" he said, ito say to the farmers that they are going to be protected by making manufactured Canadian articles free. I do not believe that the rank and file of the American farmers believe in or advocate protection for the rea- son that were they given protection, being so merous, so difficult to or ganize and a class so poor, they could never hope to. cope with the wealthy manufacturers who buy their products
 .It may be that reciprocity seeks to cheapen the raw material for the manufacturer. The Democratic free list bill seeks to cheapen the manu- factured article to the farmer. The one applies to Canada, where the farmers greatest competitor is, the other applies to another foreign world where his relief iS."

Senate Passes Bill To License
 Billiard ParIorS
Yearly Permits to Cost $1O-
 Hours Fixed at 8 A. M. to A. M.
(From Our Special Cores. )

Hartford. July 2O-A bill to li- cense billiard and pool rooms and to limit the hours during which they may keep open was passed in the Senate yesterday after an amend ment had been passed, fixing the hours at a. m. to 1 a. m.
 The bill as originally reported fix ed the hours at 5 a. m. to midnight. This was opposed by a number of billiard room men on the ground that there is a strong call for their rooms from midnight until 1 a. m. by thea tre patrons who like to play a game before going to bed.
 Senator Thomas Spellacy offered the amendment changing the hours as stated. Senator Garry Paddock .of Bridgeport stated that he had the same amendment in mind and would have offered it had not his Hartford colleague preceded him.
 The bill as passed provides that the first selectman of any town, the chief of police of any city and the warden of any borough may grant to suit able persons permits to conduct bill Hard and pool rooms, said permits to cost $10 and continued in force one year unless revoked.
 In case the pool or billiard room is conn ected with a saloon it must keep the same closing hours as the saloon. Otherwise it may open at 8 a. m. and remain open until a. m.

VIEWPOINT

A great many complaints in re- gard to the open muffler nuisance are heard around town. The annoying noise, suffocating smoke and the dan- ger of frightening horses, is as great in a small community as in any large city and many are of the opinion that the law in regard to this matter should be enforced. It is being con tinually violated day and night The eagerness to save a minute in time by speeding with an open muffler through the town should be stopped, not only as an annoyance but also as a source of danger.
