The Bulletin has the largest olr- culation of any peper in Basters Cobneotleut, and from thres to four times larger than that of any In Norwich. It is delivered to over 8,000 of the 4,053 houses in Nor wich, and read b ninety-thres per ¥ cent. of the people. In Windham § it 1s doltversd to over 900 houses, § in Putnsm and Danielson to over i 1,100, and in all of these places it 15 considered the local dally.

The permission to sell disedsed meat | given by Dr. Peters, chief of the Mas- | sdghusetts cattle bureau, has called | forth & storm of demunciation which must make his ears ring, If tubercu- | logls is so much to be feared, it is a | crfine for a man In his position to| pefmit infactsd meat to be sold in| the market. A denouncer of Dr. Peters' | cofduct Is Dr. G. K, Hagen Burger, an | asgociate of Dr. Koch. and he says of | lightly Infected meat | “I would not eat beef that wa any way infected with tubercle ba nop would 1 give it to my dog.” This wide difference of opinion among men of ability and familiarity | with the subpect is very confusing to the.Jaity, and tends to queer the Wi subject; dut then doctors seldom d MgTee, =0 It Is not 5o surprising at i o at first seem. THWE EXPECTATIONS OF BOY- HOOD. | begin to take a serious view of Jite earller than most people think, | early decide what they intend to do'or to be as men. To see what these to be decisions amounted to, a super- intendent of schools in Wakefleld, Mass., eleven years ago, jade a note of ‘what 467 twelve-vear-6ld boys ex- | w'u dostn Mte for support of themeelves and families, should they | have them. He has now traced out 406 of ghese boys and finds that at 22 years of age all but five of them are fo ing different occupations from wh they thought they should. This goes to show that in this whirliglg world of ours that the growing man cannot do what he will but what he must It is not probable that these 400 boys of.22_will_remain In the occupations they: were found in, for it {5 by fol- lowifig an oceupation unpreferred that the preferred calling or business is attained.” “Lite is a hard road to trav- el” but the American boy gets over the road and ‘wing out oftener than any other, WHO INVENTED THE MONITOR? 1t has.always been supposed that ¥ricsson invented the turreted, low- hoard monitor which overcame the ironclad confederate ram, the Merri- mae, but on the 47th anmivérsary of that' event, March Sth, it was an- nounced that Theodore R, Trimby of Brooklyn, now living in cramped cir- cumstances, invented the boat and ‘was pald 35,000 royalty by the com- pany bduilding the first two monitors, ‘but further than that has never re- celved a cent, or even recognition by the government who are using the tur- ret on the battleships today, The New York legislature has recognized the elaim of Trimby to the honor. And had it not been for an enterprising company of Conneeitcut capitalists, the Monftor would not have been rea and’ the Merrimac would have bom- barded Washington, as Secretary Stanton feared, and Jaid ail the cities along the seaboard under eontribution. Connecticut not only shines as the ‘Constitution state but as the state which had men whose foresight saved the nation when it seemed impossible to do so. UNMINDFUL OF THE NERVOUS. Dr. Thomas F.

CIPRIANO CASTRO AGAIN. President Castro of Venezuels, if reports are true, has not the miflions in foreign banks which he was re ported to have had, and he salf to be short of funds and in love with fs country as never before. His pat- riotic fervor is shown in this utter- ance of his: “Upon the altar of noble purpose I bave sacrificed all that is highest to man—my lelsure, my possessions and my very existence. In the service of sacred duty which love of my country has fmposed upon me I have exhaust- ed all my strength, . . .

My attention was recently called to one who was bringing up eight children, four hboys amd four girls, with a husband whom she de- scribed as “a $12-a-week children and me a multimillionaire in goodness.” 'That is mot the kind of an' endorsement that a man‘a paying job in the world, but it is a great compliment from a happy help- meet Here are ten people in a great v who are trying to keej home and raise good American s on | an average of 25 cents a day for fuel, rent and raiment; and somebody rises up to ask If two can mate ap $12 a weelk.

Some men act as if they thought it was effeminate to be it, d when in authority, m-{ stern because théy think these net- tling qnnhflu best become a boss. It has been sald that the best governed nation is the one governed with the least law; and the best boss is the man who can get from those in his employ the most work with the least bossing. The affable: man is & power; haughty man is usually looks and frigid commands Inspire no kindness—wake up no co-operative spirit. The man who assumes supe- fority and shows it is pretty sure to excite the Il will of those upon whom he is most dependent for success in life. The man who knows how to always be sunny has all other men beaten to a standstill whatever his vocation in life may be. Too many youag men, as well as old, depend upon “the giddy jamboree of the night” for their entertainment. They are without purpose—they are rot bent upon increasing their treas- ures, but only upen multiplying thelr amusemerits. The fellow, be he young or old, who after supper tilts his \'u_st on his ear and & cigar in his mouth is usually bound to the devil mithough he would get mad were you to to him about it. While others are add- ing to the real joy of living, life is slipping away from him and he feigns Tot to know it. “The glddy jamboree of the night” has got him, and the police have their eve on him as one of the suspects of the town. The man of polse and character k%owl ‘where be is and when, and what he goes for. No man can tell what can be got out.of a garden excopt the one who runs it. While the principal purpose of gardening is for the crops, one inol- dentally gets health and no end of ex- perience; and the experience varies from week to week and from year to year. The smallest garden baich can teach a man patience, and take the conceit out of him. ' The garden is the school tiat teaches one what he doesn't know. It always holds plenty of sug- gestions and hard knocks, takes some time to understand a garden patch—its nature and its needs; and then when you think you are the mas- ter of it, it does mot take it long to disclose o you your own deficlencies. A little garden has great possibilities, and as & source of recompense it can never be exhausted. The man who is always needing a fresh start In life is not as rare as he ought to be. He gets to the point where he must have a new suif of clothes and the services of a barber before he can get a permanent {:b. He never tHinks, poor soul, that needs new habits and a pefter breath. A breath which has to be disguised with cardamons is never above suspicion. He loves the enemy, but it is not the kind of an cnemy whith makes love for it a Chris. tian virtue, and the enemy steals away every quality—he gets where looks his worst and smells ditto; and then he reforms and kind people help him. He needs a fresh start, but his appetite is against aim, and he doesn’t go far or keep fresh long, and this is lite to him. The fresh. hard crew, for thoy are always on their uppers when they are not living upon their friends. They complain of poor health and wonder why they should break down early in life. | think that giving good advige is the poorest work P«cr in—1 am conscious that I do not know how to do it: and sort of semi-conscious ef the fact that if I could live up to my good advice 1 should find no need of offering it to others. I somehow am inclined to take good advice very much as a tramp takes a pair of old shoes which have no service in them, as evi- dence of a lack of inspection which is defenseless. We mortals have queer ways of doing things, or half d them; and then sitting * down an shaking hands with our consciences on our own goodness. * Our own goodness s our worst conceit; and the man.who prides himself on his excellencies is always blind to his own fauits,. What it becomes us to sée is the good traits in others, and we should be able do it without carrying about with s a hand magalfying giass for the purpose, It is better to live advice than it is to have so much to give away. | haven't seen the first blushird yet, but 1 have seen the first peekaboo waist.

The man with the most time and increment upon his hands is far from being best loved or happlest. It is possible for a man to be as much a slave to wealth or selfishness as to ap- petite. B‘ap&lnm has less to do with what a man has than with what a-man is! The mam who makes things is suporior to the man who buys things. The frult of tofl is wealth, and the joy of wealth is in making it serviceable to others. The idle rich are unenviably distinet. SU HUMAN TYPES—THE PESSIMIST. Only last week I stood with one for a half beur on the froat platform of a car. The sky was overcast and his face more s0. As from time to time he turned the “juice” on and off I could see that it was a tired, dispirited man who wes guiding that car. Ask- ing him if he had attended any of the special_religious meetings in the city lately, I learned that all his spare time bad been given to caring for a sick friend who had died the night before. “And mow,” continued the man at the brake, “things look pretty dark.” I tried to rally him by reminding him that he had still his own life to live and that he could naturally expect at least twenty years of happy life. “T don't care whether it Is twenty or two,” ‘he gloomily replied. “In fact, I shouldn’t care if it ended today.” There you have your pessimist and this pariicular one has ample com- pany today, not only in men of his own class, but in men who stand high in philosophy. But somehow I have less symapthy with the philosophical pessimist, the man who reasons it all cut theoretically that this is the worst possible world, than I have with the pessimist who thinks he is forced into pessimism by the hard conditions of his own life. If I were going to spend my days and nights constructing a svstem of philosophy. I should try to build a cheery, hopeful one. But for the man whn i# chronically =loomy be- cause he has to stand at the brake all day long, or to do even harder and n:ore monotonous things. who has to shovel coal into the fires that drive the throbbing engines of an ocean Mner, the woman who has to leave her own children with a neighbor while she earns their daily bread, the child who goes to some monotonous and paralyz- ing employment every morning, when he ought to be on his way to school, I have a heart full of sympathy. Were T in their places I might be a pessi- mist, too. Certainly we who are more favored | in our surroundings, who have more congenial and varied, if nct less ardu- ous tasks ought to be considerate of the pessimist, And we who are con- stitutionally equipped ‘with a sunny temperament should be patient with the man whose temperament is just the opposite of ours. Poor fellow, he ay have Inherited it from some gloomy ancestor several generations back. And all of should recognize the service which the pessimist renders by recalling us now and then to the hard, sober, painful facts of life. But let the pessimist also see things straight and see life as a whole. A cute distinction some witty fellow has made’ between optimist and pessimist. The former, he says, sees the dough- nut, the latter the hole, Is it too much to ask of any motorman, for example, that he be falr and broad enough to look occasionally at the doughnut, to hear the laughter of the happy chil- dren whom he carries day by day, to recognize the beauty and order of the universe all aboyt him and the in- disputable fact #hat' more ‘people are happier more often than they are sad. Aye let him, as he probably can, re- call moments of supreme happiness in bis own experience. Let him be can- dld enough to own that these are the real things in human life; to admit with Archbishep French: That doubt and trouble, fear and pain, And anguish al] are shadows vain; That death itself shall not remain. Another bright characgerization of the pessimist ig this: “He is the man who, when he sees the tide go out, thinks it will never come back.” Are you so impatient, my pessimistic friend. that vou camnot wait for the turn of the tide?
