HAD LEFT.
thrive on the trees! But he couldn't
quite make up his mind to kill or real
ly hurt Bully and Mrs. Bully, SO he
thought that if he took their eggs and
destroyed their nest there couldn't be
any baby Sparrows to grow up and
make more trouble, and then perhaps
Bully and his wife would go away from
the Old Orchard.
But Farmer Browns boy didn't know
Bully. No, indeed! He didn't know
how persistent Bully can be. The next
day he visited the Old Orchard to see
if Bully had left. What do you think
he found? Why, he found that Bully
and his wife had built in the very same
hole that the old one had been in!
He tore this to pieces only to find an
other one the next day. And SO it was
on the following day and the day after
that. Farmer Browns boy just had to
admire the spunk and persistence of
Bully and Mrs. Bully.
"You certainly deserve to be left
Alone" said he, but can't do it. You
are a nuisance, and so you have got
to go if I have to come down here and
break up your nest every day all
summer"
A day or two after that Farmer
Browns boy found no nest when he
put his hand in the hollow of the
tree. "At last they've given up
thought he. "I hope they have left the
| Old Orchard for good" He was almost
| out of the Old Orchard on the other
| side when his sharp eyes caught sight
of little bird just disappearing in
| a hole in the very last tree. He
walked up and pounded on the tree.

How They Fight Uric Acid

If you eat meat, then you have uric acid in your blood And uric acid is the chief cause of weak kidneys. The. kid neys do their utmost to free the blood of irritating uric acid, but it is a losing fight for them. They become weak from the overworll They get sluggish; the affirmative tissues clog and thus the work of Altering the blood is performed very poorly and the waste is retained to poison the entire system.
 When your kidneys throb with dull ache, when they feel like Jumps of lead, when you have severe headaches, nervous and dizzy spells, sleeplessness, tired feel ing, constipation and bladder disorders, you can make up your mind that these troubles come from weak, sluggish kid neys. put them in good working order again by asking your druggist for about five ounces of Rheunaasalts. Take two tea spoonfuls in 8 glass of water before break fast for a few mornings and the results will surprise you.
 Rheurnasalts acts quickly without grip ing or nausea It is delicious to take, It is a uric acid solvent as we'll as 8 saline laxative-delightfully effervescent.
 These famous ealtS are very inexpen- sive. Every one can proAtably take a little Rheumasaits occasionally to keep the kidneys clean, working and efficient.

MOTHER SUPERIOR
 ROSARY HILL HOME
Tells How VinoI Restores Strength and Vitality to the Weak, Worn-0ut Ones in Her Charge.

Rosary Hill Home, flaw thorne, N. Y. -sfI have been at work among the sick and poor for nearly eighteen years, aad whenever have used Vinol for run down, weak or emaciated patients, uey have been visibly benefited by it. One patient, a young woman, was so weak and i'll she could hardly creep to my door for aid, and was leaning on friends arm. i supplied Vinol to her literally and in a month when she returned to thank me hardly recognized her. She was strong. her color charming and her cheeks rounded out. These words are uttered from my heart, in order that more people may know about Vinol, as there is nothing makes me happier in Che world than to relieve the sick. "- Mother M. ALPHoNSA LATHRoP, o. 3D., Hawthorne, NY:
 Such disinterested and reliable testi- mony should convince everyone of the merits of Vinol, our delicious cod liver and iron tonic to build up health and strength for all weakened and nervous Conditions, whether caused from over work. worry or chronic coughs and colds. If Vinol fails to benefit we return your money.

BURNED OVER 1000 ACRES.
Forest Fires Rage During Monday and Tuesday-Why Calls for Help are Not Heeded.

Forest fires that broke out with great fury during Monday afternoon in the towns of KiiIingly and Plainfleld and which kept many men at work fighting through all of Monday night at the end of which they were believed to be under control, broke out with re- neNcd Vigur during Tuesday forenoon and within a few hours were again raging, threatening to be more disas- trous than ever.
 East of the Green Hollow road In the southern section Of Killingly. one of the fires that has been sweeping over g. big area in that part of the town'continued to defy every effort to xtinguish it and ate it's way through valuable timber and sprout land, pll- ing up the amount of damage hour by hour. Hurried appeals for help brought men from various sections Of the town, and they fought long and hard to gain the mastery, succeeding, at least for the time being, in subduing the blaze at many points along the were sweeping. A neavy carpet of dry leaves throughout the woods, however, icakes it almost impossible to thor oughly eXtinguish the blaze and no permanent relief from the fire condi- tions is to be expected, until heavy rain thoroughly trenches the whole owners in the Half Hill section are losers on account of the fire. Valuable timber land, where the trees were ready for cutting, owned by Mrs. War ren Perkins. has been swept over by the flames
 In the Flat Rock section of Plain field 1t was said at the home of Henry Vars, early Tuesday afternoon, that the fire which ragged there during Mon day night had again broken forth and seer1ed more terrible than on the day before. Forces of men were in the woods fighting to regain control of the situation. In that section 1t was esti- mated from what various people said about the extent of the fire zone that Gully 1000 acres had been burned over.
 The fire wardens in killingly and Plainfield have had some success In getting men to fight the fires. but it was sSid in Danielson Tuesday the reason why more men did not respond to the call eor help is the long wait the men have for their pay, on account of the red tape of getting it through the system in vogue. The state bears half tho expense, the county and town quarter each. Twenty cents an hour is paid.

PosToFFIcE SITE UNDETERMINED.
Treasury Departments Agent Goes Back to Washington Without An- nouneins Decision.

Special Agent Robert A. 4iaddock of the United States treasury depart ment left here Tuesday afternoon af-s ter making an investigation and nu- merous inquiries relative to a new site for the proposed federal postoffice building, but this is not to be taken as indicating, 1t is said on good au- thority, that the idea of building a postofhce on the site acquired by the government at the corner of South Main and Grove streets has been aban- doned. There may be a federal build ing there yet. and then, again, there may not. It seems certain, however, that Putnam will get it's building in due course of time, wherever in the city limits it may be located.
 It is probable that MT. Maddock will make some recommendations upon his return to Washington that may result in the introduction of a new bill in congress providing for the sale of t!:e present site and the purchase of new one, for unless the present site can De sold another cannot be purchased. OF l the amount appropriated for a postof- f1ce site and building in Putnam, only $13,000 is available for the site. TlIe present site cost the government $S,- | 800. This leaves only $4,50o for the purchase of another site, plus what might be obtained through the sale of the present site. As all improvements
 have been removed from the present
 site, leaving nothing but the hare lo', | it will not bring at a sale anywhere | near the figure the government paid | for it the shrinkase in value by req l son of the removal of the improve ! ments being estimated as at least 3D. | 500. This would shrink the property,s
 value to s6.o60, which added to the | s4,500 additional available would lea ye | s10.50e for the purchase of another
 site, provided the lot would sell for sS,eoo.
 Various proposed sites were looked (Conkinued on Page Six.)
