GOOD ADVICE.

ries a Moral.
Mind your business" are three
words stamped on a copper cent dated
1887, and now held by Maine man,
E. w. Rowell, of Brunswick. That
was one of the frs bits Of money coin
ed in the United tates. and 1t Is sig
nificant in many ways. but particular
ly on account OF those words. IL that
motto had been used more freely In
this country in the past dozen years
there would have been less panic.
There would have been less expense
for war preparations in late years.
The owner of the old coin says he
has been offered $500 for 1t, but has
always refused to sell, as his mother
gave it to him many years ago with
the injunction to keep 1t as long as he
lived and study it often with special
attention to the motto. He has found
that good advice. The word lucic, 81

The case OF Thomas Howe of New
London VS.. George .. Raymond and
Is others, which has been on the
docket l. years and. which has twice
been tried. was started Tuesday in the
superior court at New London by
judge Joel II. Reed AMI iEry.
The suit II one which involves many
ne-sor-s and several questions and is
xithaI an unusual case. Mr.. Howe sues
Tor the stallion Knoll Reward, and he
clGsns Mr. Raymond and his fifteen
co-defendants are liable to him for
that amount.
Mr.. Howe claims that the sale vas
made through III. =. Reynolds of
in horse selling all over the country.
The stallion Knoll Reward was
brought over from Ireland 1t is the
claim that Mr.. Reynolds and the other
men, all interested in horsefiesh,
bought Knoll Reward for breeding
IS shares of 500 each. 1t is further
claimed that these men. who were
known collectively rs the Cleveland
Fay Horse company, We're either to
pay cash or to sign joint note, pay
able in one two or three years
Some paid cash and others signed
thu joint note. The note was made
out payable to Reynolds or bearer.
Some of the men had two shares and
others but one, no one holding more
than two.
The defense claims fraud. 1t is
claimed by the defense that no com
panv was formed as agreed and that
in signing the note it was believed
that simply an agreement TO form a
company was being signed. Fault
WAS also found with Knoll Reward, ne
being claimed not satisfactory for
bree ling purposes.
The case has twice been heard The
suit was first heard before Judge
George Wheeler and jury and then
before Judge John Thayer and jury.
Once the jury disagreed and the other
time the jury returned a verdict f. I
Mr.. Howe. This verdict was set aside
by the court, however, and the ca se
then went up TO the supreme court,
where the setting aside of the verdict
was upheld.
This makes the status of the case
practically as though it had never
been heard. as it reverts to the super
Tor court and must be tried all over.
The transaction occurred in 1895.

matter with Mr.. Raymond were l.. L.

SAGE TEA WILL
DARkEN TIE HAIR.
Restore Faded and Gray Hair to Nat
uraI Color-Dandruff Quickly Re-
moved.

There is nothing new about the idea
of using SAGE for restoring the color of
the hair. Our great grandmothers kept
their locks soft, dark and glossy by
using a sage tea" Whenever their
hair fell out or took on a dull. faded
or streaked appearance they made
brew of sage leaves and applied it to
their hair, with wonderfully beneficial
effect.
Nowadays we don't have to resort to
time, tiresome methods of gather
ing the herbs and making the tea. This
is done by sl1illful chemists better than
we could do it ourselves, and all We
have to do is to call for the ready
made product Wyeth's Sage and Sui
plfur Hair Remedy. containing sa ge in
the proper strength. With the addition
of sulphur another old time scalp rem
edy.
authorize druggists to sell ii under
guarantee that the money will be re-
funded If IT fails to do exactly as rep
resented.
Don't neglect your hair. Get a
bottle of 3Wyeths Sage and Sulphur
today, and notice the difference after
a few days use.
This preparation is offered to the
public at fifty cents a bottle, and is
recommended and sold by all drug
gists.

Heard BY Judge Burnhan in Com :
mon Pleas Court.

A suit for ejectment was heard at
New London, Tuesday in the court of
common pleas. The plaintiff was
David L. Murray and the defendant
c. Nj. Shay. The case was heard by
Judge Burnham of the Griswold town
court.
Murray is minor. In 1901, when
he was ten years old. his grandfather
purchased a strip of land in Groton,
from n, S. Gallup and requested MIR.
Gallup to make oat the deed to this
boy. Soon after the boys father, who
was also named David, died.
Then the town of Groton, which
had furnished supplies to the father,
wanted to collect against the fathers
estate The deed did not specify Da
vid Murray, Jr., and the town claimed
that it belonged to the father. The
probate court ordered the plot of land
sold and G.. NJ. Shay bought it..
Young Murray, then residing in
Norwich, applied to the probate court
here for the appointment of a guard
ian and the guardian on his behalf
brought suit to eject Shay, who refused
to give up the property.
