 Earth Swallows Auto.
 James F. Cuff, of Danbury, and members of his family were automo- bile riding Sunday afternoon on the Ridgefield road, just below Maple wood, when the earth seemed sudden ly to pen up and swallow the lower part of the machine. The road was marshy and too soft to bear the weight of the automobile, which drop ped nearly four feet into the ground.
 Putnam Park Trees.
 That many of the lofty chestnut trees at Putnam Park are doomed and that many of the diseased trees should be cut down in order to save those which have not been diseased as yet, is the opinion of State Forester Sam uel M. Spring, who inspected the trees in the park on Friday. It is now feared all of the chestnut trees in the paIk VIII De destroyed uH4SSS the uIS- ease can be held in check. The blight consists of growths of fungi, which first occur between the bark and the wood of the tree and then spread rapidly to all parts of the tree. The disea sed trees are being marked and will be cut down and removed

DEAFNESS,
 HEAD NOISES
New Book on New MethOt- Hoy to Recover Hearing Without Drugs or
 Electric Devices
Message of Hope and Joy tO
 All Afflicted Persons

There Is hope of a welI-based kind which should bring joy and ultimate eOntentment to multitudes of persons who have been troubled for years with deafness or head-noises.
 Dr. Coutant, an able specialist. has evolved a newly perfected method for 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 amenable to proper treatment.
 Dr. Coutant does not advocate the use of drugs or electricity. He relies chiefly upon cooperating with Nature in bringing about a speedy and enectu- al cure of morbid auraI conditions. Re- marka bIe cures are reported. many of them being in the cases of deafness that had existed for about 20 to % years. With the description given lH his newly published book, the learned docto provides a long series of letteras 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 pr. COutant'g natural home method.
 Anyone who is interested can write to a dozen or a hundred of the persons who. not long ago, were victims of deafness or head-noises tor b0thl and who are now delighted to proclaim themselves ss marvellously benefited or completely cured
 Dr. Coutant Is not one OI Eue S[S- sponsible Quacks. Of which there 18 such a large number. but is a reput- able responsible, Hcentiate, practising physician with a third of 8 century'a active experience.
 The doctor believes there are many who are troubled with deafness. etc, who might be permanently freed from their inability to hear and from ttn- nitus (noisesI if they would do as oth- CTS have successfully done. merely fol- lowing the advice given
 The book. which any reader can ob- tain from the author. Dr. George E. Coutant, 2G9 D. Station B. New York, N Y, has been declared by many to be worth its weight in gold One needs only to write for it and the treatise will promptly come in a plain wrapper.

MUNICIPAL ENTERPRISES GREAT PROFIT PRODUCERS

| I'The British City" was IN ADDJ- TION TO ALL OF THE OPERATING AND FIXED CHARGES of the plant and the payment Of local taxes the same as a private company
 Last year THESE BRITISH CIT HE'S MADE OVER TEN MILLION DOLLARS CLEAR PROFIT OUT OF THEIR MUNICIPAL ENTERPRISES.
 Parliament takes care that the cit ies do not create a permanent debt. Each municipality every year must set aside a certain percentage of tha capital value of the loan to retire the indebtedness at the end of ap- proximately 30 years. The financial success of these British trading en- terprises proper is unquestioned, ex- cept by those who know nothing about which they are talking or writing, or who talk or write to misIead. Far edness being a peril to the munich palities, the trading enterprises have created A SPLENDID SURPLUS in excess of the debts against the plants
 But haven't the taxes in British cities increased during the past 10 years? is asked. Certainly, and taxes have increased in cities conduct ing no municipal enterprises. This is true for England, for Germany, for the United States, and for all other civilized countries. Cities are indulg- ing in public baths, better pavements, more extensive and more scientific methods of sewerage and in none of these is there any direct and visible money profit, though it would not be difficult to prove that most of them by keeping people well and making them healthier, return to the com munity indirectly more than they cost.
 At least five municipal enterprises can be made to pay from the very beginning in Bridgeport or any other populous community. These are gas, telephone, electricity, water and street car service. A municipally owned street car system is the greatest reve- nue producer of the five, for both the rates and the service can be kept under such complete control of the community that failure is impossible.
