near Ithaca. He continued his ex- pertinent for several years, and be- came the host to several hundred boys and girls. However, he was dis satisfied with the result, since his ef- forts smacked of charity and pauper- ized the recipients. He determined to make his guests earn their living. and in 1895 the first Junior Republic was founded with this end in view The Republic was so called because the citizens were permitted to govern themselves and elect their own off, cials. under a constitution and laws similar to those of the United States. Nothing without labor" was the motto of the republic, and the farm became an all-the-year-round com munity of workers. who paid their own way and were proud of it MT. George was superintendent of the Re- public until 1910, when he resigned to devote his entire time to establish ing similar institutions in other parts of the United States.

DADDY" GEORGE
 IS 5s TO-DAY

2 William Reuben George. interna- tionally famous as the founder of the Junior Republic at Freeville. x. Y.. and the inspiration of a number of other kid nations for bad young sters in America and England. was born at West Dryden, \. Y.. 53 years ago today.
 It was a little human interest" Story in a newspaper which led -ieorse to establish the kid republic which has been SO widely copied. It was about 30 years ago. when George was a young but highly successful business man in New York, that he read tho article which stirred his im- aginstion so effectively. It told of a street urchin who dared arrest by walking on the grass in a park to { pick what he thought was a flower. and of the lads keen disappointment when he found 1t was only a scrap of orange peel.
 This passionate love for flowers en- tertained by nearly all the poor chill dren of New York gave Mir. George the idea of taking a number of street gamins to tho country, where they loouid have all the wild flowers they wanted for the picking. Tn 1890 he took % boys and ten girls-young- 4sters-about as tough as they make 'eD-to c sumnsr camp at xresville.

THE FIRST FAMILY HOTEL.

The first family or temper ance' hotel in London, the forerun- ner of tens of thousands of such hos telries in all parts of the world. was opened in Covent Garden 145 years ago today.
 An inn for the more or less per- ranent accommodation of families. and minus bar, was an undreamed or thing, and other hotel keepers laugh ed the project to scorn. Despite tnelr derision, the scheme was successful and made a snug fortune for its founder, David Low. London now has hundreds of family and temper ance hotels, and before long the United States will have thousands or them.
 The edtfce in which Low started his hotel is still standing, and is now used for the boxing matches of the famous National Sporting Club. The building was erected early in the 17th century, and was originally the home of Sir Kenelm Digby. Cromwelps council held sessions in the building. it is said. and it was the scene of many other noteworthy gatherings before it was converted into a hos telry.

"I have not been able to work for two years on account of my health said MT. E. G. Anderson 24o0 3rd ave- nus, Birmingham, Ala. T had an at ts ok of Jaundice and my whole body became yellow as a. pumpkin, even my finger nails were yellow as the yolk of an egg. I was badly constf- pated-even two glasses of Pluto Wa ter would not move me. My stomach was very weak and did not seem to extract the strength from the food I ate. Gas would bloat me up and I'd be very uncomfortable. Often had pains in my back and limbs so bad I could hardly stand 1t.
 When the dizzy spells hit me I'd just have to stop right where I was and sit down till they passed off. I've taken two bottles of CINOT and it is the greatest medicine I ever saw seemed 1ke it was made especially for my case. It began to act on my bowels and the action was so easy and pleasant; no straining about it at all. My liver also seemed to take on new life and the dizzy spells stopped and the yellow color faded away. My food now digests well, and I am get ting my old time strength back again. so that I expect to go to work soon.'
 Cinot is a natural herb medecine which acts on the stomach, liver, kidneys, bowels and the blood in a Eay to assist nature. It tones up all the vital organs, increases the strength and gives new energy to run down systems.
 The Cinot Expert is at Hartigan's Drug Store, s Fairfield avenue near Main street, where he is introducing this remedy to the Bridgeport pub Hc.-Advertisenent.

AMERICAN SPEAKERS.

The first speaker of the House of Representatives of the United States Congress was Frederick A. Muehlen- berg, of Pennsylvania, who was born in Trappe, Pa, in 1750, and died in Lancaster, Pa, 11S years ago today, June 4, 1901. Muhlenberg was the son of Rev. Heinrich Melchior Muh- 1enberg, the founder of the German Lutheran church in America, and the brother of John Peter Gabriel Muh- lenberg, clergyman, general in Wash ington's army, congressman and United States senator. Muhlenberg served as speaker throughout the first Congress of the United States, and was succeeded by Jonathan Trumbull, of Connecticut, but was re- turned to the speakers chair in the third Congress. Among his famous successors were Henry Clay, who was speaker for six sessions of Congress; James K. Polk, Robert c. Winthrop, Schuyler Colfax, James G. Blaine John G. Carlisle, Thomas B. Reed, David B. Henderson, Joseph G. Can non and Champ Clark. Only one speaker of the House of Representa- lives. James K. Polk, has ever reach ed the White House, defeating Henry Clay, an ex-speaker.

AMY ROBSART.

On June 4, 1850, Lord Robert Dud- ley, under the title of Earl of Leices- ter, married Amy, daughter of Sir John Robsart of Cornwall The bridegroom was only 1 8 and the mar riage took place at Sheen, in the pres ence of the young King Edward VT The pair lived happily together for 10 years, but had no children. Dudley rose in the favor of his sovereign, Elizabeth. and, had he been unmar- ried. might have aspired to the royal hand. In order to advance his posi- ton. when Elizabeth showed her fondness for him, Dudley got rid of the wife of his youth by having her thrown down the stairs, claiming that she had fallen down accidentally and had been killed. Although he paid outward respect to her memory, by burying her magnihcently in St. Mary's church. he was never beyond the suspicion of his neighbors. He is known to have committed many wicked deeds and his subsequent life shows that he was fully capable of ordering one woman out of the world to make room for a new.
