SIGN POSTS AND COW PATHS.

When man. woman or child country lanes. byways and alleys ha or she expects to find the way as best he or she may. Cows which wander about the hills and meadows have no particular destination except either end of the paths they wear in their travels back and forth. Pedestrians who walk these paths must take their chances on the ultimate end of their journey much the same the cows.
 When people live, work, reside or visit in 3 city of between 60,000 and 10000 people, such for instance as New Britain, no one expects to walk ahead blindly trusting to luck to come out somewhere. Nor does anyone want to walk the modern streets of city, leading they know not where, trusting to the same blind luck to bring them to their destination
 Strangers, newcomers to the city, and even residents of long standing oftt1mea are at loss to know where to find certain streets and have diff culty ascertaining the names of streets upon which they sometimes find themselves. When a person must walk an extra block, or half a block in the wrong direction in order to ask some one tho name of the street,
 
 equally ignorant, it is time something is done.

JTTNEY, "wATCH YOUR STEEP

This is a particularly important time for jitneymen and for those in- terested in furthering their interests
 Jitneymen should be careful to watch their steps," They may be sure that those opposed to them, q ief1ly the Connecticut company, are watching those steps most eager ly, and would be eager to see them slip.
 The jitneymen should see to it, if they have the certificates allowing them to run as provided by the law, that they give the best service pos sible. They should try to see that there be no falling off in popular sentiment for them.
 The few which are running are Ion trial" perhaps, though they may not know it. The jitneymen who have not been granted certificates, but who are eager to get them, should help the more successful operators and own CTS of jitneys to give good service, and should advise with them.
 Every complaint against a jitney now, every patron dissatisfied, will be meat" for the Connecticut com pany when the final decision is made If the Connecticut company could possibly create popular sentiment in its favor, the jitneys under no cir cumstances would have a chance. whether they are operating now O, not, should watch their steps,"

EXPERT OPINION.

The customary cry, anu Qulte properly is it made, is that a com mission should act on proposition before it, and not postpone decision.
 The water com missioners how ever, in the matter of fishing in the reservoir, may be pardoned perhaps for sending back for further con- sideration the communication from the state board of health asking that fishing in Shuttle Meadow Lake be stopped.
 Our own commissioners ara aware of the situation here. It isa3 lieved by many of them that fs ytaken from the lake furnish food for many who would otherwise find it hard to get plenty to eat for their families. The local health board realizes this also.
 If this is the actual fact; if most of the fishing in the lake is done by those who fish because of need, it would seem a heartless thing to do to deprive them of this chance to get food freely and without applica- tion to the city for charity.
 If, however, this is not the case; if the fishing done there is chiefly by men seeking pleasure, passing the time away in this fashion-men who dol not need the fish. or boys who fish for the delight of fishing-this places another aspect on the matter. A thorough Investigations practical one-should be made of the situation.
 There is no question that the danger of contamination of the water used by 6O.0o0 people of this city, is greater now than ever before because of the greater number of unemployed who have time to fish.
 The first duty, under ordinary times, of the state board of health, is to look after the~health of the state To request the prohibiting of fishing in the lake if there is danger of pollution therefrom, is a proper step.
 put Ut tulS llIIIS IL ucCOlAcS t'lS duty of every board to consider also the unemployment situation. It is quite possible that the state board, in its anxiety to do it's own particu- lar duty, have overlooked this fact. It may not be a bad idea, therefore. for it to reconsider it's request, view ing the matter from all sides and taking into consideration the lack of work and the fact, if it is found to be true, that many are finding sustenance in the fish of the lake.
 If, however, after further con- sideration by the state board, and after practical examination of the facts as to just how many needy peo- pie are being benefited by the lake in this way, the same request is re- iterated, the water commissioners should act in accordance with facts learned. .s
 Meanwhile the city should see to 1t, as far as possible, that the least chance of pollution is given. Of lenders should be punished.

 In almost any section of the city, on almost any street corner, conven- tent places for street signs can be found. The places are there, but where are the signs?
 If the board of public works has any such signs on hand they should be placed where they will do some good. People should not be made to walk the city streets, trusting to in stinct to find their destinations, as they would have to do in following a cowpath through the woods.

II You Need a Medicine

Have you ever stopped to reason why
1t is that SO many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
Of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is PLAINTIFF article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a
preparation / have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify
No other kidney remedy has so large a
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DIR.
Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it ful6lls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments: corrects uri.
