 Both MT. Linke and Chief Dame were loud in their denunciation ot the railroad as are all of those who witnessed the episode at the Elm street crossing. Chief Dame has long advocated Hook X Ladder company to be stationed south of the railroad tracks to insure the right sort of pro- lection for the people in that section of the city. He will recommend that a hook and ladder company be sta toned south of the tracks in his re- quests for the coming year.
 Great credit is duo to the hrcmen for the energetic way in which they fought the stubborn blaze and when they had mastered the situation, Mrs. Linke served them with hot coffee and crulers, a kindly act that was greatly appreciated by them.
 Orders Arc Disrcgarded.
 Investigation, subsequent to the dangerous delay to the fire depart ment at the Elm street crossing this morning. has disclosed the fact that several years ago public spirited citizen complained to the railroad au- thorties about the blocking of the grade crossings in New Britain with the result that an official order was issued forbidding the conductors from blocking tho crossings except while their trains were going in one drec- tion.
 By this order the railroad employees were instructed to raise the gates and allow traffic to pass before a train should again cross the tracks. That this rule is hagrantly disregarded was evidenced this forenoon.

sNowBALL's REVENGE.

Puff and Kit became very popular
with all the kittens and cats in the
neighborhood after they gave the lee
ture and very much talked of, and
poor Snowfall was not looked upon as
quite their equal.
One day after he hadsbeen in the
city with his master he heard a
commotion in the barn, and he thought
Puff ana Kit must be giving another
lecture, so he went very quietly to the
barn door and looked in. All the cats
and kittens we're sitting around the
barn. drinking tea, and one old Mrs.
Tabby was saying to Puff: 1T is a
pity your brother SNOWFALL does not
care for the artistic things in life
as you and Kit do; it must be very
trying to have him. go to town with
his master instead of enjoying this
brilliant gathering you have here this
afternoon at your tea
Yes" replied Puff. Kit and
often speak Of it, but Snowfall does
not care for social life at all. He
is of rather rowing disposition. and
he does not care for style, either"
He seems to be very proud of his
tie and collar" said another Mrs.
Tabby.
"Oh, yes" replied Kit, 80 he is,
but he does not wear them with any

The next Sunday morning when all
the kittens and Tabby cats were sit
ting on their front steps in the warm
sunshine SNOWFALL donned his red
sweater. He stretched his neck to it's
full length SO that his tie and collar
might show to advantage. He slicked
his coat and pricked up his ears. and
then walked very slowly by the barn
door, where Kit and Puff were doing
in the sun, but he did not look at
them.
Puff was in the middle of yawn,
and he stopped with wide-opened
mouth. Never had he seen anyone
look so stylish as SNOWFALL in his red
sweater He tapped Kit on the head
and awcke him, and they walked out

Where did he get it?" asked Kit.
Il do not know said Puff, but he
will have all the neighborhood talking
about him, and we will be forgotten
again.
They crept along to the gate and
watched SNOWFALL walk down the
road. Out came the kittens and Tab
bies and looked admiringly at Snow
ball, who bowed and purred to each
one he met.
"Snowball's the most stylish cat
around here" said one kitten.
And his white fur with the red
sweater makes him the handsomest
cat ever saw" said another. Il must

said one old Tabby, and invite him to
dinner, for he will be the rage after

Poor Puff and Kit watched Snow
ball as he was greeted on all sides, and
finally surrounded by an admiring
crowd. They walked down the road,
but no one noticed them, for all eyes
were on SNOWFALL ard his red sweat

ed for SNOWFALL to return, but it was
very late before they saw him, for
everybody was anxious to have him
sit on their steps or in their yard,
that they might be able to say that
he had called upon them wearing the
wonderful red sweater.
When SNOWFALL reached home that
evening Puff said: You better keep

One of the very worst habits in
boyhood is the cigarette habit. This
has long been recognized by all the
judges of the courts who deal with
young criminals, and especially by
judges of police courts, before whom

are addicted to Incorporate habits.
These judges know that in nearly ey-

A Georgia girl has recently given a
striking demonstration of what lit
tie care will accomplish in the rails
ing of pigs. A SOW in her neighbor-
hood had eight pigs and could only
nourish seven Of them at one time.
The eighth pig was therefore given to
the little girl, who raised it by hand.
She joined her country pig club as a
Ham and Bacon member. and kept a
close record. as the club regulations
provide, of the feed given her pig. and
OF its weight. The pig was not a
purebred. At nine months old the
pig was killed. 1t weighed 225 pounds

yielded 50-pound can of lard. The

Kidney. Bladder and Uric Acid trou-

At the same time the seven other
pigs which had been left with the
