Six Above the Coldest Bridgeport Has Experi- enced In This Spell of Weather - To Continue
 Cold If Predictions Are Reliable.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1912-01-06


 Although today has been the coldest of the winter the thermomter has not gone below zero as yet
 According to the Draper thermom- eter in front of the store of F. Lyman manufacturing optic4an, 960 Main St. the coldest period of this cold snap was at g. o'clock this morning, when the temperature was above zero. At noon the thermometer showed a tenn peratu of 10 above zero. At md night it was 12 above. The present cold wave has not reached its height and the mercury may drop still lower tonight.
 There is considerable difference in Jan. G. 1911 The record taken from MT. Lyman's thermQmeter shows that on this same day one year the tenn perature at midnight was 16 above were having rather warm weather and what is styled a January thaw
 The cold weather has not made ice thick enough for the local ice dealers to cut as yet It is estimated that the ponds In the vicinity of Bridge inch to three inches in thickness. In some places where the snow has blown off, the ice is thicker. Local dealers wait until tine ice is at least 13 inches in thickness before they be- gin cutting. They insist on this thickness so that they can plane off at leaSI4 an men rom Lne top tO Ilu II of dirt and other impurities.
 New York, Jan. s.-Poverty and terrible suffering, which seemed to in- crease with esrch degree the tempera- ture dropped, reached an alarming state in New York, today-the cold eat day New York has experienced in years.
 Municipal anP charitable lodging houses, early today, disgorged thou sands of i'll clad and hungry men and women into the bitter cold and wind swept streets. Some of them, man. agers of the lodging houses said. would freeze to death before noon.

 The municipal lodging. house, with beds for 800. could not care for all of the applicants and just TBS home long in the waiting rooms of the lodging house, where fires were kept going to try to kSep them warm. At midnight 300 men were sent to the charities dock. on the East river, where the engineers were forced to that the men would not freeze to death.

''SUNFISH SQUIRM"
THE LATEST DANCE

Pendleton, Ore Aug. Ito the
dump with the Texas Tommy Back
to the woods with the Turkey Trot
Abas the Bunny Hug, and AngleWorm
Wiggle and all other forms of fancies
In the modern terpsichorean art
which have movement of their own.
Something new has been discovered
which, its originators and sponsors
claim, will relegate all other heel and
toe phantasies to the darkest recesse
and itself claim universal fealty
from the dancing world 1t is called
the "Sunfish Squirm" and to a person
familiar with the wild and wolly
west, the connotation of that title
will be description enough.
The new dance does not take it's
name, as might be suspected, from
some denizen of the mighty deep but
derives it from peculiar movement
executed by some bucking bronchos
when attempting to project a rider in
to space. Such a movement is called
'sunfishing' in frontier .parlance and
consists of posterior twist combined
with an anterior rigidity and a mid
section upheaval, always of course
speaking of the aforementioned bron-
cho. About one out of every dozen
outlaw" horses possesses a mastery
of this peculiar and effective move
ment, which is neither here or there
in explaining the new dance.
The dance had its inception in the
clever cerebellum of a popular local
society belle who CHANGED to he watch

fisher and before he had finished his
exhibition he had not only dumped his
rider but provided an idea for a new
creation in the world of the dance.
The young lady Immediately saw the
possibilities which lay in the sun
fish movement" which had hitherto
been disregarded and forthwith she
evolved the "Sunfish Squirm." To
date she has taught it only to selec
few but declares its popularity is so
contagious that she will soon offer it
to an eager world.

HERE'S A WAY TO SAVE DOCTOR
BILLS
Physicians Give Free Advice by
Which Parents May Profit

ii 8 a matter of general interest
Just now how ones physical condi-
tlon can be got into shape to best
receive the benefits of the summer
season. Especially is this true of
the children. They have become
run down by winter of unnatural
manner of living because of ill-consid-
cred food and much time spent in
doors. Spring comes with its sunshine
Its fresh vegetables and all else in
vigorating, but the children are in
no condition to receive natures rem
edies.
Many parents call in the family
physician. Many other parents take
advantage of what the physician told
them when he was first called in con
sultation. All good family physicians
say: Give the children Castoria.'
Healthy parents know of this rem
edy OF old, for they took it themselves
as children. 1t was more than thirty
jears ago that Castoria made place
lor itself In the household. 1t bore
he signature of Charles H, Fletcher
hen, as 1t does today. The sigma
oure is its guarantee, which is &C
aepted in thousands of homes where
there are children.
Much is printed nowadays about big
antilles, DR.. William J. McCrann of
Omaha, Neb., is the father of one
Of these much-read- about families here
8 what he says:
AS the father of thirteen children
certainly know something about your
great medicine, and aside from my
WI family experience | have in my
Jears of practice, found Castoria a
popular and efficient remedy In al
most every home
Charles II. Fletcher has received
hundreds of letters from prominent
physicians who have the same esteem
Or Castoria that DR.. McCrann has.
Not only these physicians say they
Use Castoria in their families, but
hey prescribe 1t to their patients.
tfrst of all it Is a vegetable prepar-
alton which assimilates the food and
regulates the stomach and bowels.
After eating comes sleeping, and
Gastoria looks out for that too. 1t
allays feverishness and prevents loss
Of sleep and this absolutely with
cut the use of opium, morphine or
other baneful narcotic.
Medical journals are reluctant to
liscuss proprietary medicines. Halls
Journal of health, however says:
Our duty is to expose danger and
'ecord the means for advancing health
Ihe day for poisoning innocent chill
lren through greed or innocence
ought to end. To our knowledge
)astoria is a remedy which produces
,omposure and health by regulating
he system and not Supplying it, and
,ur readers are entitled to the infor-
| alton"

A GOOD STORY WILL
BEAR REPEATING

The Mountain States
Telephone and Telegraph
Company has invested in
property $l.l5 for every dol
lars worth of stock issued.
1t has no bonds, no interest
charges, consequently, its
rates are liz less than its in
vestment actually warrants.
Had you ever thought Of it
in that light9
The only possible answer
to lower rates is a reduction
in operating costs. These
are now as low as careful
management will permit
without injuring the quality
Of service. To give good
service, good rates are essen
tial. Good service and good
rates go hand in hand, and
are alike just to the public
and to the corporation which
has no water in its stock
whick pays only honest,
reasonable dividends. Safe,
reasonable dividends are de-
served bya corporationwhich
has more actual property than
stock issued.
Repeating, The Mountain
States has $1.l5 invested for
every dollar Of capitalization.
Arguing in a circle? Yes!
but its a true circle.
