 Miss Margaret Sullivan. has resign ed her position at the Union News Co.,, Palmer, and has taken position at the training school at Worcester.
 Miss Grace Sullivan of State street has resigned her position in Spring field and has taken position as book keeper for the Squier coal company of Monson.
 G. W. Seymour, who has been quite seriously i'll for the past two weeks at his home on Main street, has recovered sufficiently to be able to be about.
 East Hill farmers were carrying water for domestic purposes, in some cases as far as half mile, the first part of the week, many of the wells in that disrict having gone dry, Some of the private springs in the village have also given out.
 The marriage of Miss Florence Carpenter and G. W. Hobbs, IT, <, of Florence, N J., which took place at the home of the bride in Spring field Wednesday evening, is of local interest, as Mrs. Hobbs is a daughter of Homer I. Carpenter, formerly of Monson, and a granddaughter of the late Daniel Carpenter of East Hill. Several relatives and friends from Monson were present at the ceremony and reception.
 Mrs. William Flint, a former Mon Chicopee street. Willimansett. Tues day, the 9th, after long illness.

 A team driven nv three noisy young men dashed around the corner SnnIh of Adolph Nothe's home on th, Stafford road and crashed into the team of Michael Meurisse, who was returning from the Palmer fair MT Meurisse was thrown several feet, aud after Intellectually attempting to set the injured joints, Dr. McQHaid was called to the home of F. c. Sherman where he attended to the case, placing splints upon the middle fingers of his left hand. As without the splints the fingers drop downward from the middle joint, and as with the splints the joints will probably be stiff MT. Meurisse expects never to be able to use the fingers again. He is also suffering from a lame shoulder and other bruises. One wheel of his vehicle was demolished The horse, a fine, recently purchased young grey, did not run, but after leaving part of the harness with the wagon, went on a short distance then faced around and stopped to see what was the matter. Mr. Meurisse seems to be having more than his share of accidents.

First Opera Glasses,

The single opera glass was first used in the time of Louis XIV. It became the rage. and everybody used one The double opera glass (Jumelle' was in vented in 1925. but did not at first find favor with women. A treatise was written in the early part of the nine teenth century on Tart de lOrgner. ih which it was shown that woman with fine arms would hold the glass with both hands, if she were blessed with fine hands she would take off her gloves. if her neck were long she would recline back in her chair. and so on. It was quite a treatise on coquetry.

A n.innitu nf Death maska.

Although there is no mention of death masks in the works of Homer or In any of the later classics, modern ex- plorers have satisfied themselves that in the early burials of all nations 1t was the custom to cover the heads and bodies of the dead with sheets of gold so pliable that they took the impress of the form. and not infrequently. when in the course of centuries the embalmed flesh had shriveled or fall en away, the gold retained the exact cast of the features. Schliemann found number of bodies covered with large masks of gold plate in repousse work" several of which have been re produced by means of engra wing in his 'Mycenae." and he asserts that there can be no doubt whatever that each one of these represents the likeness of the deceased person whose face 1t GOV cred.

Our Sixteen Striped Flag.

How many stripes ill the American flag? Thirteen. of course. yet there's an American flag flown legally today which has sixteen stripes. 1t is the flag of the revenue cutter service. and the stripes are vertical. not horizontal. aS in the ordinary ensign The stripe nearest the staff is red: then come white and red alternately, so that the outermost stripe is white The reason for the sixteen stripes iS found in the fact that when the revenue flag was authorized. in 1799. there were sixteen states i'll the Union. three having join ed the original thirteen. - New York Tribune

As the ice upon the mountain, when the warm breath of summers sun breathes upon it, melts and divides into drops, each of which reflects an image of the sun, so life, in the smile of Gods love, divides itself into separate forms, each bearing in it and refecting an im- age of Gods love.-Longfellow.

The Proof That Stafford Springs Read

 What could furnish stronger evi, dence of the efficiency of any remedy than the test of time. Thousands ot people testify that Doan's Kidney Pills have brought lasting results.
 Grateful endorsements should prove undoubtedly the merits of this remedy. Years ago people right in this locality testified to the relief they had derived from the use of Doan's Kidney Pills. They now confirm their testimonials They say that time has completed the test.
 Marshall Holbrook, farmer, W. Main St.. Willimantic, Conn.,, says 1T sufferd a great deal from kidney complaint and backache. One of my family had used Doan's Kidney Pills with great benefit and so decided to try them. In few days was cured and although that cure was made some years ago, there has never been a sign of the trouble since willingly confirm my former statements given in praise of Doan's Kidney Pills and authorize their further publication.

To the exhortation, "Let us pray" he would reply, By all means" and during dry summer he added to the Amen" after the prayer for rain, But we sha'n't get 1t till the wind changes" On hearing the words, "For we brought nothing into the world, neither may we carry anything out, !" he would ejaculate, True, true; too many calls upon us for that."-London Globe.

Conroth Ia not making a special trip

CLAbbY FAILED
TOSHOW PUNCH
IN RECENT CO
Los Angeles Fans Give Jimmy
Credit for CIeverness, but
Think He Lacks Wallop.
By Sol Pick.

~HICAGO, Feb. 1e.-"Punchless
Jimmy Clabby," they are call
ing him on the Coast. 1t seems
that the Hammond flash, though win
ming by basketful of points over
Petroskey. did not make as favorable
impression with the critical Los An
geles fans as he did with those Of San
Francisco.
They like the man with the wallop
in Southern California, and they are
convinced that Clabby Is minus that
asset. Reports of the controversy say
that James set himself time and time
again and shot his right squarely to
the chin point without making the
sailor back up. It's too bad. A Clab-
by with a punch would be a ring
marvel. They give James credit for
being an Attell for cleverness, but
they ask more than skill in the Wesr
We would advise T. McCarey to
send for George Chip, Of Scranton.
Pa, If he desires a middleweight who
can clout them to sleep. When the
Lithuanian hits a foe clearly, said
foe sits down and blink
Clabby and Chip would make a fine
match over a route. because while
James may not be able to punch, he's
a mighty hard man to whip, just the
same.
