From reading the accounts of the hearings one might faucy that the only man in all Connecticut Who| favors the establishment of a public | utilities commission lies sick and helpless in the executive mansion on| Farmington avenu Yet the most effective appeal made by Ciovernor Lil- ley in his ante-election speeches was | his advocacy of such an institution. Undoubtedly 1t brought him many | votes at the polls. What has become of the demand which seemed so gen- eral? What has caused this stolid op- position in the assembly?—Waterbury American. The fate of the public utflities bill is a great disappointment to Governor Lilley, who was its champion and who HOW WE ARE TAXED. Everybody in Connecticut has heard of R. S. Hinman of Stevenson, the progressive farmer, who Is celebrated for his sound sense and quaint humor, and this is what he writes to the Con- necticut Farmer: “While not pertinent to corn grow- ing, I say that the high assessment of my land may not be entirely ow- ing to its improvement. A little more than forty years ago I set a row of maples for about an eighth of a mile on the south side of the road by my place. They have made a wonderful growth and are certainly a comfort to the traveling public, and ornamental. Besides that, some 20 years ago I graveled the road so well that it has cost the town nothing to .speak of since. It stands to reason that I ought to pay something for the maples and the road, and as there seems to be no law against taxing a piece of good road or a row of maples, the assessors add to the valfie of my land what I pald out for these public Improvements. If I were to spend §3,000 and macadam that road, I have no doubt but that the amount I expended would be added to my land.’ In fact, an acquaintance of mine has been caught that way lately. Quite a lot of my farm was well sprinkled with cobblestones when it came into my possession. It made my back ache some to pick up stones, and now the assessors say that there are no stones on it. I figure that I have to pay annually about one dollar per acre for picking up those cobbles.” This is no joke, The premium is on regarded it as the star feature of his | administration. What has caused the | flerce antagonism to it among Govern or Lilley's friends and supporters plainly stated at Hartford—it will close the door of opportunity to those who profit by special legislation and they do not disgulse the fact. The| champlon is disabled and we are told | “this measure is as dead as @ mack- | erel,” at rather an unfortunate time; | but it is & safe time and probab it is true. It s the triumph of selfish interests over. the public welfare. MAKING FOR CLEANLINESS. The city of Norwalk has grasped the idea of making itself so far as possi- | ble & “spotless town,” and the primary energy abides In the board of health, | which has requested the co-operation | of every property holder and tenant In | making Norwalk a cleaner and more | healthful oity. “That the citizen Norwalk should lend the board co-operation goes without saying,’ says the Norwalk Hour. *In th modern times the sentiment towards a cleaning up timejonce a year, es-| peclally in the sprihg after the storms of winter, and the necessity of keep- | ing clean throughout the year has been growing in Norwalk, the result of which is that the city has taken on a more pleasing aspect throughout and | has undoubtedly lowered the average | of mortality.” | of t Fortunate is the city which has an |’ official starting point—an authorita- | tive recognition of the fact that the| city which is clean and sanitary the lowest geath rate and an in, ing influence which prompts the peo- | ple to make the town shine, A c sade against filth and refuse matter one of the best advertisements any | city can have, | a- | DUSTLESSNESS TELLS FOR HEALTH. That eonsumption Is primarily caused by dust no one will attempt to deny, and a careful Investigation by the bureau of labor shows that the mixed mineral, antmal and fibre dust Is the greatest cause by Inhalation of | tuberculosis. “The Mortality From Consumy in Dusty Trades,” §s the subject od by Fretlerick L. Hoffman in B tin No. 79 of the Bureau of Labor which shows that of the deaths from sll causeg among males 15 years old and over In the registration area of the United States, 14.8 per cent. were from consumption. According to the industria] insurance experfence the corresponding proportions were 39.9 per cent for occupations exposed to| metallic dust, 28.6 per cent. for those exposed to mineral dust, and 32.1 per cent, for those exposed to animal and mixed fibre dust. The occupation show- ing the highest consumption mortality | was grinders, among whom 49.2 per cent. of all deaths were from that dis- ease. | In each occupation group the high- | est consumption mortality was among | persons from 25 to 34 years of age, the proportion of deaths from con- sumption for that age group being 57.2 per cent. In occupations exposed to metallic dust, 47.6 per cent. for those exposed to mineral dust, 53.9 per cent. | for those exposed to vegetable fiber dust, and §3.3 per cent. for those ex- posed to anima] and mixed fibre dust, as compared with 31.3 per cent, for males in the registration area, # The writer gives it as his opinion that by intelligent methods of ventila- tion and dust removal the consumption death rate amfong wage earners can be reduced from 2.2 per 1,000, based on the number of deaths among gain- tul employed persons ten years of age and oyer In the registration states in 1900, g8 1.5 per 1,000, the average rate for 200ismall cities, as shown In the mortity statistics of the United States jcensus for 1901 to 1905 Such a redffetion, he estimates, would re- | sult hi'en annual saving of 22,238 hu- man lives, tion | at- PURE FOOD LIMITATIONS. Dr. Harvey W. Wiley, chief of the Uniteq States bureau of chemistry, in ) recent address to a woman’s elub in few York, said that it was incy tpon the women of guch organizations @ the one he was addressing to see © it that the homes of this country vere supplied with food conspi or its purity and reality, and jort which was liable to be placed In he category of what he called “near bods.” He also sald: “All that could be 1 Washington was to prohibit itate commerce In adulterated fo wnd it was the duty of each state wlve its own own domestic trouble Chat wag where women's Org ould do a lot of good. bent done 1s to No man In his country can stand up against the | tomb scorn and denunciation of the women of this country,” eald Dr. | Wiley, and hls hearers showed their wpproval with any amount of ap- plause, The only way impure foods can be driven out of the market Is by the re- fusdl of buyers to have doctored or tmitation or stale cold-storage foods fiwposed ugon them. There Is plenty ot 100d, wholesome food in the market ara there Is no reason why any buyer should be Imposed upon. An eminept Frenchman says that it 15 bad for the health to get out of bed the moment one wakes up. He'll never eatch the white sparrow. ‘Thé trade journals say that this is & good time to bulld, and Norwlich has taken opportunity by the forelock. slovenliness by our taxing methods, not upon enterprise. The man who makes things shine has to pay for it. The citizen who keeps things looking up s the darling the assessors all over New England put the rates to. He makes things fine and he must pay for the looks of them. REGULATING BUNDLES OF SHIN- GLES. In Massachusetts they have discov- ered that even in this day of high- priced lumber, when shingles snould be shingles, many of the bundles are sim- ply frauds. There s before the legls- jature of that state a bill defining a standard bunch of ghingles, to be made up of shingles four inches in width and 25 rows by count on either end of the undle, and requiring that all nonde- cript ‘bundles shall have stamped in arge Roman numerals the exact num. ver of shingles in them, which Is plain evidence that they are not first class or put up according to law. We think back to a time when specific laws of this kind were not needed for the pro- tlon of buyers, because the prinel- s of honesty and honor Inculcated d 1ived up v by business men were 1 the protection needed; and this in. cident cannot be added to the cumula. tive evidence that the world is grow- ing better all the time. The commer- ods of robbery have the old- oned robbers beaten to a finish. EDITORIAL NOTES.

The finest contour of a female face, the sweetest smile of a female mouth, loses something if the head is crowned with scant hair. Scant and falling hair, it is now known, is caused by a parasite that burrows into the scalp to the root of the hair, where It saps the vitality. The lit- tle white scales the germ throws up in burrowing are ‘called dandruff. To cure dandruff permanently, then, and to stop falling hair, that germ must be killed. Newbro's Herpicide, an entirely new ro- sult of the chemlcal laboratory, destroys the dandruff germ, and, of course, stons the falling hair, and prevents baldness. Sold by leading druggists.

What others | say is not or should not be allowed to become a disturbing factor since it can neither change our destiny or our deserts. This temple of ours is in our hands and we can make of It a “whited sepulchre” or a “holy of ho- lles.” Whit we ourselves say or do determines just what it shall become. ‘Sometimes we have reason to think that Shame is dead; and while read- ing a miscellaneous work awhile ago I discovered that she lost her life by getting in bad company. As the story goes, Mind, Water and Shame met at a tavern. “Where, Shame, ls your home?" asked Water. “Of a truth, I cannot tell,” answered Shame. Then ‘Wind and Water took pity upon her because no man would give her shel~ ter, ang they said: “Let her live in our compan: She did so, and Wind rose 10 a hurricane and Water was thrash- ed into glant waves and Shame in the tempest was drowned. And since that day, it is said, Shame is not to be found in the world. The tavern and | bad company have ever been the wreckers of mankind | Harticulture is becoming so popular that there is profit in it for the great | department stores, and shrubs and | bulbg are to be bad right at our doors | at about 25 per cent. of the catalogue prices, This year these great business places have added thousands of rose bushes of the finest quality to the lawns and borders and gardens of Norwich and vicinity, and they were really superior in quality to plants u: ually received from standard houses by express for 35 cents each. It is an evidence that in floral beauty through the influence of the New Lon- don County Horticultural society the city is constantly improving, and our great business houses aid in the work by offering bargains the foreign flor- ists cannot duplicate. In 1859 Norwich had not come to be known as “the Rose of New England” to any extent. The grand toast at our last anniversary celebration ran lke this: “Old Norwich—a beautiful and rare mosaic set in emerald. proudly worn in the breast of every native at home or abroad”; and mow it would read: “Old Norwich—'the Rose of New England, proudly worn on the lapel of every citizen’s coat and dear to ev- ery heart, native or adopted.” “The world do move"—Norwich has made great strides since '59 in many ways— its industries and its men are differ- ent—its zone of trade and Influence is greater, but its dear old hills are the me and its precious memories have been greatly Increased. “One reason why we look back to youth as the happy time of life," says Librarian Dana, “is that youth s the tgs of generous thinking. As we grow old we get in the habit of thinking meen thoughts atout other people, and the mean thoughts recofl and leave us unhappy. If we could keep our sym- pathy with all the world we could keep the happiness of youth all the way through life.” He who finds this out | has a treasure thieves cannot break in and steal from him. There are real jewels of the mird and they are the finest jewels God has given to man. They are pricel and they are free to all who will accept them. They are a joy to the begear or to the king, and the re to be had by compliance with the of mind. Money cannot buy them 1a them—divine illumination puts | into our care and keeping.

The world is ever £o much more ready to put down the black mark than the credit mar, This is not because the world is mean, but because it is not as readily impressed by merit as by a serious accident, The little gentilities of everyday life create no agitation—it is the crudities that do that. Some day we shall be as ready to bless as to blame, | _ The man who works hard and denfes himself in the strength of his days that he may have lsisure in the sunset of life is lending himself to a vain de- sire.

It is easy enough in the midst of general rejoicing on Baster Sunday to share with multitudes the world around the hope that gives to this great festival its chlef significance. ‘We are all affected by atmospheric con- ditions, and when in almost every house of worship songs of Christian triumph are being sung, and flowers in profusion, processions of little children, and the words of the preacher all unite to make the day distinct from all the others of the year, he would be a vory big skeptic who could remain unaf- fceted by these joyous demonstrations and say to himself or to others, “Oh, it's all a pretty fable. They know no more about it than you or L. They are simply guessing and hoping, and they have no solid ground beneath their feet in reason or argument.” Such an_attitude on Easter day be- trays a nature out of tune with one’s fellow men, and yet we must never forget that the special observances of Baster pass with the day itself, and that unless one’s hope !s erounded on something else than what may be puh- lic sentiment at the moment, it cannot encure the tests that are sure to como | during the 364 days before once more the church and the world will cele- brate Baster. This universal Easter rejolcing is made up of the contributions to it of a multitude of individuals. It will not last when individual hope and faith decay, and it s Important that now and then one should ask himself what would happen If he were the only one in the world who believed in Easter and what It stands for. Would ‘that single conviction suffice to_ perpetuate | the belief in immorta!ity? 1Is your | personal faith in a life beyond the | grave big and vital enough not only to Inspire you, but to become an ii- fluence over others, so that little by | little it will generate the same faith? The bigness of the Baster hope pos- sessed by any individual will depend upon the sources from which it is| drawn. We go to philosophy, for in- | stance_ and get a measure cf assurance | therefrom. The wise men tell us that life may persist beyond the grave, because it is irrational to think that the enmergy and force bound up in a| human spirit can ever be dissipated. Or, we go to the people interested in psychical research. They say that re- cent investigations have pared away the barrier between matter and snirit so that we can almost discern what is going on beyond the other side of the vale. We can almost hear the far off sounds that come from another world, as imprizoned miners are thrill ed by the distant soumd of the pickax and shovel In the hands of their res- Again, we w0 to the poets, and ey say almost with one volce, though in different language: “Life 1s lord over death, And love can never lose its own.” But there s another kind of convic- tion concerning immortality that ¢ imes out of personal experience, out of the Iiving of the highest kind ‘of life that one is capable of living day by day. That in itself inevitably gives rise to a conviction of fmmortality, faint, per haps at first, but ever erowing strong in proportion as one devotes himseif to the life of love and faith and ser- vice: to the life that is ever putting away that which is false and selfish and_sensual, and taking on th finer qualities of meekness, humility, gen- tleness, eouraze and self-sacrifice. Tte early Christians felt that their life was bound up with that of their Lord, because they had come not only to he- lieve in his personal trfumph over death, but to share to some extent, at least, those fdeals of life and that pro- gramme of life which were his. They felt that such a life as that must go on In some other sphere. Si out of personal Ixperience those Christian Msciples and others like them through the centuries have comt to know that WELK, WEARY WOMEN Learn the Cause of Dally Woes and End Them. & ‘When the back aches and throbe. ‘When housework {is torture.
