The young lady had gotten to- gether pile of books to read that even- ing. but. needless to say she had no use for them. Miss Dean was presented with sack larger than tEe one used by Old St. Nick. which was full of remem- brances of her birthday and was tied up with beautiful cord. She was asked to sit in the centre of the room and open them. The first happened to be a mould ing board, then came rolling pin, apple corer, cooky cutter, mixing dish, rattle. Lincoln pennies by the hundred of which Miss Dean is saving. Dress trimmings better known to the ladies as collar and cuffs, some beautiful cloth, for beauti- ful dress. for beautiful girl, cut.glass dish, 21 new five-cent pieces, a small parasol, Carrie Nation Ratchet. and dollar bill. Songs were sung. a duet played, games played, phonograph music and last but not least feed, six or seven kinds of cake, besides two birthday cakes handsomely decorated, sandwiches, chocolate, olives. cheese, candy and pea nuts. It came up to these Brotherhood suppers in every way. Much credit should be given Mrs. A. s. Dean, for getting up the surprise and the success with which it was carried out. The party broke up before Sunday morning.
 MT. s. E. Silvernale and Walter Dean are employed by Mir. John Bartle.

A REALLY TASTELESS
 CASTOR OIL AT LAST
Something That Science Tried to Get
 for 5000 Years.
Goodbye, drugs and pills l

Goodbye, drugs and pills
 The perfect laxative has arrlved- Kellogg's Tasteless Castor Oil-made tasteless by method which chemists have tried to find for 5000 years.
 This is not favored or disguised castor oil. It is just pure castor oil without taste or odor.
 Kellogg's Tasteless Castor Oil IS a better castor oil than the old evil tast- ing, evil smelling kind. While none of the taste remains. none of the good has been taken out. Kellogg's Tasteless operates quickly and freely, without gripping. causes no gas, and does not turn the stomach. Children take it easily and retain it.
 The drug stores have all been sup piled. You have only to ask for Kel- logg's Tasteless Castor Oil, 25c or soc size. It is not sold in bulk. The trade mark is a green castor leaf on the label. bearing the Kellogg signature.
 Made only by Spencer Kellogg & Sons, inc, Buffalo, N. Y, refners of vegetable oils.

SHARON

Miss Florence s. Knowles, who has been on an extended visit with friends in New York, returned to her home last Friday.
 Mir. and Mrs. F. A. Hitchcock, of New York, spent few days at the home of the latter's sister, Mrs. O. H. Eggleston, last week.
 Miss Martha E, Wilbur leaves today for two weeks visit with friends in Danbury, Bridgeport and New Haven.
 Miss Martha A. Mallory is in LaKe- vile at present where she is caring for Mrs. William R. Warner, who is seri- ously ill. -~
 Two of Sharon's grand old trees were cut down during the past week. One was in front of W. E. Hotaling's and the other down near the Congregational church and the Lambert. It is sad to see these old trees go but they were practically dead and unsafe to leave standing. t,. .~~4
 Our Dramatic Club journeyed up to Lakeville last Friday night where they gave that successful play, "A Night Off," There was a good crowd out and the young people came back much pleased with the results. They also wish to thank all who so kindly aided in giving them the excellent supper they had at the close of the entertainment.
 Postres are out announcing that the above play will be repeated by special request at the Casino, Monday evening, Feb. 23. Miss Cornelia Ryan has kindly consented to give songs, impersonations, etc, between the acts which will prove great drawing card as Miss Ryan is always warmly welcomed by Sharon people when eyer she appears. As this comes at the time of Washington $ birth day patriotic dance will follow the entertainment. It is hoped the young people will have good attendance as this is the last dance before the Lenten season opens.
 On Sunday evening. Feb. 15, Dr. Caskey, of Christ church will give a lecture on Lincoln at the Methodist church and on the following Sunday, Feb. 22, Dr. Caskey will lecture on George Washington at the Congrega- tional church. Doubtless both of these will prove very interesting.

 Frank A. Wike is mourning the loss of his black and white bull dog "Fritz. " It is not known whether he wandered away or whether some one has helped him. It seems strange that no one can give any information in regard to him as he was 8 dog that never wandered away and he was especially devoted to little Pauline, Mr. Wilkes little daugh- ter. A liberal reward has been offered for Fritz" and we hope MT. Wike will soon find him in good condition.
