 The village will include stores and a school house and the entire plan, in cluding the landscape gardening and laying out of recreation parks, etc, is the work of R. Clipston Sturges, an English architect, established at pres ent in Boston, who has become famous throughout the country for these gar- den city developments of small homes.
 MT. Sturges was in Bridgeport on Friday to look over the tract before work was begun on the first half dozen houses Streets have been laid out and graded, water put in, and the ma terials all assembled so that the work will go forward in the most efficient manner. A similar development will be started at Lordship, as soon as the Fairfield scheme is under way.

BACKWARD BOY SPRINGS SUSPRISE
 ON HIS PARENTS
They Had Worried About
 Him For a Long Time.

He was one of those ambitious boys the city is full of, had the will and desire to work but not the strength, had never been oyer strong, always pale and anemic, it was up hill work for him to keep up his end either in play or at school.
 His mother remarked to one of the neighbors how bright and well her little girls had been looking, she was so rosy checked and full of life and good spirits, where before she had been so pale, sluggish and backward about everything.
 The girls mother smiled and said, Why that is easy, that child gave her father and me loads of worry, we had tried everything and were about desperate, when the farmer who brings in our eggs told us to try Phosphated Iron, he bet that would do the business, his oldest daughter was just the same. but now looked like a new child and they would never be without a box in the house. The boys mother took the tip, and you should hear her praise Phosphat- ed Iron,( she says he is full of boyish good spirits and tricks, eats the way all boys should, no more restless nights, sleeps like a log, and now
 leads his class with ease, where be-
 fore his work had been an effort and a drag.
 ] It just seems as if the boys whole system absorbed the Iron he was ir
 such need of it and the Phosphates
 were just what his overworked little
 brain needed. It sure made won. derful change. Doctors all agree that four-ffths o1
 all trouble is due to the lack of Iror and Phosphorous. If one has then
