FERN AND PALM TIME.

Now is the time to purchase your palms and ferns for home decoration during the winter. At this time of the years says MT. Beck, of the firm of florists of John Reck & Son, the public can purchase palms and ferns at a more reasonable price than at any time during the year. because the greenhouses are entirely filled up with plants and space under glass in the fall of the year is very scarce. There fore many florists have not room enough in their greenhouses to take in all the ferns and palms they have grown in their cold frames and there fore they must be sold before the weather gets cold enough to make it necessary to take them into the warm greenhouses. John Beck & Son have grown an enormous lot of palms and ferns this year and as MT. Beck says he will not have room to take them all into his greenhouses to keep for winter sales, he must necessarily get rid Of them at once and in order to do he has stocked up his store with these most useful plants which are being sold at ridiculously low prices. Anyone wishing to avail themselves of the opportunity to get a palm fern at a bargain, would do well to visit the store of this well known firm and see what they have to offer

GENERAL BOOTH AND
 THE BRIDGEPORT POOR

| Few men in the worlds history 1 have earned the esteem of such a large class of people as the late Gen era1 Booth of the Salvation Army, and even those who were not in sympathy with his work as an evangelist could not withhold their admiration for him homes he established in every city of any importance in the country provide
 a home for the friendless and give employment to those who would oth-
 erwise be a burden and expense to the taxDawers.
 The Bridgeport home, which would
 well repay visit, is at 515 dousa- tonic avenue, and as soon as the frost sets in it will be filled to its utmost capacity. It has been lately swept and garnished and is now under the mana cement of Staff Captain Milne, who was formerly in charge of the home at Springfield, Mass Capt Milne is about fifty years young, and is Q man of strong personality, who puts his heart and soul into the work to which he has been called.
 The home is maintained by collect ing old clothes, newspapers, maga- zines, books, furniture, etc. The old clothes are sold at low price at the Salvation Army store at 1885 Main street, or ar egiven away to the very poor. An appeal to the known gen. erosity of the people of Bridgeport to save up their old clothes and papers for this purpose will surely not be made in vain. It is within the power of almost every householder in the city to give something, if it is only few rags. to help on the work so well begun by William Booth, that good soldier of Jesus Christ and friend of the poor A postal card sent to Staff Captain Milne at 515 HousatOnic ave- to call for cast off clothing, old newspapers, shoes, old Fubbers. car l yresponded to, and a wagon will be sent for the goods

SACRIFICE Is FATAL.
Cripple Who Gave Withered Limb
for Girl He Never Saw Dies.

for Girl He Never Saw Dies.
Gary, Ind.-"I guess I'm some good,
after ALL"
Billy Rugh, the 41-year old cripple
whose withered leg was amputated to
save the life of girl by skin-graft-
ing operation at hospital here, spoke
these words and then died.
Pneumonia was said by the physi-
clans to be the cause of death. The
ailment, however, resulted directly
from his self-sacrifce, having been
due to irritation of the lungs by the
ether that was given him when his
leg was cut off to furnish skin for the
body Of a person whom he had never
seen.
Rugh had no relatives, and since
coming to Gary several years ago
made his living selling newspapers on
the streets. He had to be trusted for
the first bundle of newspapers with
which he started business.
Miss Ethel Smith, the girl for
whom he sacrificed his leg and later
his life, had been terribly burned in q
motorcycle accident. 1t was just two
days since her recovery advanced suf-
fciently to permit her removal from
the hospital in which Rugh died.
