Every workman, even the chief inspec or, was sworn to aflence This Injunction was. formally repeated every month to the superior officers employ ed, while tho workInen had constantly before their. eTes in large letters the warning motto, Be Secret Unto Death.'' It was well known that any person diyulgiag the p-ceess would be imprisoned for life in the castle of Koenigstein.

 IN BRIDGEPORT SOON,

Postmaster Greene is having the mail which each carrier takes out weighed and counted for. the entire week, commencing today, for the pur- pose of determining the increase in the amount handled.

nneks and Mosauitoaa.

; According to experiments reported by S. G. Dixon, the most formidable animal enemy of the mosquito is the duck, and the introduction of this bird is recommended for eliminating mos quitoes and the diseases which these insects spread from marshy regions. where draining would be too costly. Two artifcial pools were constructed Of equal area ducks being placed in one and fish in the other. The former pool was quickly freed from mosquito punae and larvae, while in the other they continued to abound. Wild ducks are said to prefer quitoesSto all otfi CT food.-Indianapolis News.

THE SECRET

Of good coffee is to get pure, sound coffee
If you ask your dealer he will tell you
that all coffees are pure, as the law pro
hibits the sale of substitutes as coffee.
Not all apples are pure although they
are apples Some Of them are often rotten
Some eoffees are windfalls, and whilst
the law allows them to be called coffee
they are impure and have a harsh taste
Denison's Coffees are picked cotfees, the
berries picked by hand from the trees
consequently they are always pure and
sound in every sense of the word, reliable
and delicious
Denison's Coffees are always packed in
cartons, bags or cans with the name on
every package. Al others are limitations
If your grocer does not stock Denison's
Coffees, write the Denison Coffee Co., Chi
cago. H.. who VIII tell you where they
can be obtained in your yieinity.-Adv.
