''About $50 citizens of WallingfOrd,
together with friends from New Haven
and elsewhere, Tuesday evening testi-
fed in part their love and esteem Tor
Hon. William II. Newton, for 80 years
a resident of the borough, and who is

corps of trained walters from New
Haven did good work under the direc-
tion of Caterer Frank l.. Ray. The
menus were printed on n heavy brown

ing at each plate.

feeIingIy of his associations in Wall
i ingford and of the old home he was
about to return to. He assured all that
he would remember each and every one

broke into cheers and long and hearty
applause.

REMOVED NUTS FROM HUBS.
Dastardly Trick Perpetrated-Might
Have Caused Injury to Children.

A dastardly trick was pepetrated in
the north part of the town the first
of the week. Someone entered the
carriage shed of William McClenning
and removed the nuts from the hubs,
the kingbolt from the axle and nuts
from the springs of the carriage which
he uses in transporting the scholars
from district No. 3. When it is re-
membered that Mrs. MeClenning usual
ly drives the team and that there are
a number of very small children in the
company, it Will be seen how serious
the offense was. Mrs. McClenning had
not gone far when one wheel dropped
off Fortunately she was driving slow
" at the time, and had her horses un-
der control, so no one was hurt. An
investigation revealed the other mis-
chief done to the wagon. Other things
of such serious nature have been done
in that locality of late that the au-
thorities are determined to leave no
stone unturned to put a stop to it even
if it means bringing the matter into
the courts.

League Scored Big Success.

The Hadassah league scored a big
success with their entertainment We'd
nesdav evening in the vestry of the
Congregational church.
The first number was piano duet
by Miss Jessie Hawley and Miss Mary
j. Bane of Brattleboro. Then followed
piano solo by Miss Hawley. These
pieces were enthusiastically received
by a large audience. Miss Bane sang
Old Black Joe and Coming Through
the Rye Between the acts they rem
dered a piano duet. These young wo-
men are deservedlv popular in Towns
bend. and are real artists in their line.
Miss Hawley plays with so much en-
thusiasm and expression that she al
ways arouses the enthusiasm of her
audience, and Miss Bane 5 singing
combines natural ability and thorough
training. These qualities with her
pleasing manner always make her eff
forts of marked interest.
The farce, Six Kleptomaniacs, pre-
scented by the league, was humorous
from start to finish. There was moth
ing serious or pathetic in it. 1t was
truly side splitting all the way through.
Everybody had their p cents worth
of fun. The play consists of female
characters only, but as a special fea-
ture they introduced Rastus, the part
being taken by J. J. Cudworth of Cal
ifornia, who is at the Inn. He sang
with Miss Elisabeth Cudworth the ne
gro song, Dat Chicken Pie, which made
a big hit.
The play had been thoroughly re
hearsed, and all the parts were rem
dered with such a degree of perfection
that it might seem invidious to men
tion any in particular. All III all IT
was one of the best entertainments
given in town for many moons. IL

OF MOT ERHOOD
Advice to Expectant Mothers

The experience of Motherhood is try
ing one to most women and marks dis
tinctly an epoch in their lives. Not one
woman in hundred is prepared or un-
derstands how to properly care for her
self. Of course nearly every woman
nowadays has medical treatment at such
times, but many approach the experi-
ence with an organism untitled for the
trial of strength, and when it is over
her system has received shock from
which it is hard to recover. Following
right upon this comes the nervous strain
iof caring for the child, and distinct
change in the mother results.
There is nothing more charming than
"a happy and healthy mother of children,
and indeed childbirth under the right
conditions need be no hazard to health or
beauty. The unexplainable thing is
that, with all the evidence of shattered
nerves and broken health resulting from
an unprepared condition, and with am
pie time in which to prepare, women
will peAoist in going blindly to the trial.
Every woman at this time should rely
upon Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, a most valuable tonic and
invigorator of the female organism.
