Social Notes

Two women were discussing a step
mother recently. The 6~-year-oId son of
one of the women listened Wonderingly.

The women laughed, forgetting that,

the second wife as a being of terror,

If the second wife is a young woman
and strange as it may seem, men
usually choose for the second wife a
gtrt in her early twenties-she is an%-
ious to please. She has never run a
home. but settles down to do her best
and to win by her achievements all the
dissenting relatives. Her attention to.

thoughtful affection, for in nine cases
out of ten a stepmother will hopelessly
spoil the children rather than run the
risk of being critised for h~arshness.
If she has children of her w she will,
because of the mother love within her
heart, make no distinction between

A woman prominent in private and

band came to her before they were
married and asked her about the future
OF his children.
Your children she said. "Do any
thing you want with them, only don't
have them near me" So he children
were semi away to be cared for by their
grandmother.
Many people, when they heard of the
incident, declared a man with children
should not have married a woman of
that ~type--that the woman had no

mother has several children of her own,

HAIL! GENTLE SPRING
 SHE IS DUE TONIGHT

The vernal equinox, which marks the beginning of the gladsome season
 of Spring, is due tonight. She is scheduled to arrive at Washington at 6:21 this evening. The equinox, in as- tronomy, is either one of two points at which the sun, in its annual apparent course amdng the stars, crosses the equator, and is so called because the days and nights are nearly equal when the sun is at these points. The yer nal or Spring equinox, beginning to- night, is always meant when but one equinox is referred to. The season of Spring, sstronomicaliy speaking, continues to the Summer solstice, which this year will begin on the af- ternoon of June 21 The Autumnal equinox will usher in the Autumn sea- son on the morning of Sept. 2S, while the Winter solstice will commence shortly after midnight on Dec. 21. It takes the sun seven Or. eight days longer to go from vernal to autumnal equinox than from autumnal to yer nal. The equinoctial gales, which of ten rage at about the time of the ver- nal and autumnal equinoXes, are de- clared by the meteorological wise men to have nothing to do with the equin- oxes. and to be merely coincidences. No old tar, however, will believe this.
 Tonight the sun enters the sign Aries, or the Ram, which governs the period from March 20 to April 19. According to astrologers, persons born under this sign have executive ability and a. faculty for commanding, and are at the same time capable of blind obedience, when necessary. They are also of an inventive turn of mind. original and determined, and .sot in their ways" Aries subjects are also said to be charming conVerSatlonalsts

to Republican tax equalization. Yet the Courant's table shows that con siderable chunk of tax equalization was accomplished during Mayor Smiths time, so that he is entitled to some of the glory.
 The figures also direct attention to the fact that Hartford has a smaller grand list than Bridgeport, which doesn't indicate that Bridgeport is wealthier, but that Hartford has some distance to go before tax equal ization is accomplished. So indeed has Bridgeport. The Courant also called attention to the circumstance that there is no state tax, of which it seems glad, although, if recollection serves, it was vexed with Mayor Buck ingham at the time mayor of Bridge port, and this newspaper for venturine to suggest that the state taX'was un- necessary.

 Without Drugs or
 Electric Devices Message Of Hope and Joy tp All Afflicted Persons

There is hope of . well-based kind which should bring joy and ultimate eontentment to multitudes of persons who have been trov bied for years with deafness or head-noises.
 Dr. Coutant, an able specialist. has evolved a newly perfected method tor treating cases where the hearing Is not perfect or where the sufferer is harass- ed by ringing. roaring. buzzing or other disagreeable noises in the head. It ap- pears that about 95 out of every hun- dred cases are from causes amenabse to proper treatment.
 Dr. Coutant does not advocate the use of drugs or electricity. He relies chiefly upon cooperating with Nature In bringing about speedy and effectu- al cure of morbid aural conditions. Re markable cures are reported. many or them being in the cases of deafness that had existed for about 20 to 4O years. With the description given in his newly published book. the learned docto provides long series of letters, written by persons WI had been given up as hopeless. and who were speedily cured at home without loss of time and without inconvenience by Dr. Coutants natural home method.
 Anyone who is interested can write to dozen or hundred of the persons who. not long ago. were victims ot deafness or head-noises tor both, ana who are now delighted to proclaim themselves as marvellously benefited or completely cured.
 Dr. Coutant is not one of the ire sponsible quacks. of which there h such large number. but is reput- able. responsible. licentiate. practising physician with a third of century's active experience.
 The doctor believes there are naaey vho are troubled with dea mess. tfc.. vho might he permanently r+<en from their inability to hear ana rom tin nitus noisesl if they would do as oth. CTS have successfully done. merely fol. lowing the advice given.
