There is a surprise connected with this act which is too good to spoil by ad- vance hSnts. but you will do all the talking necessary after you have seen this clever team.

Everybody is trying to think of the best Christmas present for a man, but it is not difficult to select one for the fellow who smokes There are thousands of different brands of cigars offered for sale all over the country, but right here in Norwich are made two that are the equal of any. They perhaps do not cost as much as some of those with national regulations, but there are none better made. Take the New Avant. five cent cigar that is better than the great majority of those selling for more money, and you'll find difficulty in telling it from many ten cent cigars sold hereabouts. The Nugget is a ten cent cigar and worth the price Both have won great reputation all over-- Connecticut, so much so that twenty-f five men are constantly en- ployed in making them. You can buy them of any dealer or of the manu- facturer, George P. Madden. Buy a box of either and feel sure you are giving a present that. will please any smoker

POETRY
BELLS ACROSS THE SNOW.

0 Christmasl merry christmasi Is 1t really come again. With It's memories and greetings, There's a minor in the carol And a shadow in the light And a spray of cypress twiDfng With the holly wreath tonight And the hush is never broken By laughter light and low, As we listen in the starlight To the bells across the snow. o Christmas merry christmasi
 Tis not so very long Since other voices blended
 With the carol and the songi If we could but hear them singing As they are singing now, If we could but see the radiance Of the crown on each dear brow. There would be no sigh to smother No hidden tear to flow, As we listen in the starlight
 To tho bells across the snow." o Christmas! merry Christmas.
 This never more can be; We cannot bring again the days
 Of our unshadowed glee. But Christmas, happy Christmas. Sweet herald of goodwill, With holy songs of glory
 Brings holy gladness still. For peace and hope may brighten. And patient love may glow, As we listen in the starlight
 To the bells across the snow"

At the Davis.

At a time when dramatic offerings with decided leaning in the direction of religious thought and incident seem to appeal to the theatre going public it will be of interest to note that MT. Harrington Reynolds, lately a star of the original Rosary company, is to be presented by A. c. Delameter in a new play by Neil Twomey, The An gelus. In the Rosary, MT. Reynolds will be long remembered for his ex- cellent portrayal of Father Kelly, and it will be of interest to know that the character to be impersonated by him in his new piece, The Angelus will also be that of parish priest, Father OBrien, and will possess many of the characteristics which endeared the genial, whole souled priest to the many thousands that witnessed the former play. While, as the title will indi- cate, The Angelus has religious theme woven through the plot, it is by no means of sombre nature. The dram attic interest is unbounded and the clean, wholesome comedy that carries through the entire story contributes to a most delightful entertainment, possessing elements that must appeal to even the most critically inclined.
