The Jubilee Book, containing a complete record of the celebration of the 250th anniversary of the founding of the town of Norwich, with complete | illustrations, containing at least 100,- | 000 words and 50 pages of portraits and scenes of decorated streets and sections of the parade, ete. The Bul- Jetin hopes to have the book ready for ! delivery early in December. If you have not ordered one, fill out the cou- | pon printed elsewhere and mail to the “Business Manager of The Bulle- tin, Norwich, Conn.” THE LICENSED HUNTER. The licensed hunters of the state, who number fifteen or twenty thou- #and, find l-an picking in the rural districts. By virtue of their license they may hunt for game, but they have no right | to trespass, and the extent to which farmers post warnings on their land against trespassers, they must have much difficulty in hunting game in this part of the state as a Thirst does hunting a drink in a dry town. The extent to which private woods are *“boarded” may show that the! owners are extremely selfish, or that the hunters are an unbearable nuis- ance. The Bulletin suspects that the damage done to walls and fences by hunters, that the bars left down and gates left open, are the cause for the | warning signs, “Keep Off This Prop- erty,” rather than any desire on the part of the farmer to kill and market his own wild game. Looking the field over, it does seem as if the hunter receives little for his money and finds it rather difficult to do any legal business when he has the hunting permit of the state in his pocket. A LIVE QUESTION. H Notice has really been served upon | all political parties by the recent ac- tion of the Connecticut Business Men's | association at Waterbury, that the | public utilities issue is a live lssuei and will not down. | This organization declared anew for | an efficient public service commission, to supervise rates, service, condem- nation of land and issuance of stock, and this means that they believe in it and will lend their energles to its promotion wheénever an opportunity | offers, The next campaign is somewhat dis- tant, but there are far-seeing politi- | cians who see both the justice and the | opportunity of such a movement in! Connecticut and they will not let it| die. ! The Ansonia Sentinel hints that the | next campaign may have been com- | menced Dbefore the legislature of 1909 closed, and it says: “There were pres- ent in that body not a few men whose services will prove valuable in a new contest over the old subject of pub- lic utilities, and, as they have already | committed themselves, their views, | their strength and their weaknessesi are pretty well known. Therefore lti | | { | i is pretty thoroughly determined in advance whether or not their re- nomination and re-election is. desira- ble. In view of this, the caucus activ- ities of a year hence promise to be well worth experiencing, and the voter | will be dull indeed who does not make | up his mind that he will do his best to determine the lay of the land in advance, with a view to knowing for what policy, as well as for which man, his vote is to be thrown.” This simply means that the gum- shoe sleuths of both sides are in the field quietly trying to select the rep- | resentatives and to shape the general | assembly of 1911 for the success of this important measure. Professor Todd has decided that he will go up ten miles in a balloon. Eince no man has been up more than »ix, this is a stunt equal to reaching the North pole. Dr. Cook is not an orator, but it is conceded that he knows how to tell an, interesting and impressive story, and most of his auditors believe he has been there. There are men in this country who are willing to be taxed on half a mil- lion who now and then in their gener- osity show ability to give away a mil- lion, James Jeffries tells what he is go- ing to do to Jack Johnson; but what he fs likely to have done to him he -never permits himself to talk about. { tions it offers, JUSTITE BALDWIN. A great lawyer is wanted as the successor of the late Judge Peckham. Chief Justice Baldwin of Connecticut is such a lawyer. It is said that the successor of Jus- tice Peckham will be a democrat. Chief Justice Baldwin is a democrat of the highest type and character. The supreme court bench is the summit of the legal profession. Chief Justice Baldwin is conspicu- ously fitted for place on that summit. Almost 70 years old—yes, that’s trye, but in the full flower of men- tal and physical strength. Chief Justice Taney lived to be 89 years old, John Marshall 80, Gabriel Duval 92, Samuel Nelson 81, Noah Swayne 80, Stephen J. Field 83, Will- iam Strong 87. They were all strong men, but-none of them a bit stronger than Chief Jus- tice Baldwin—New Haven Leader. This is well said. The whole of eastern Connecticut heartily endorses the.sentiment, every man of us will be glad to add energy to the movement. The qualifications of Chief Justice Baldwin as successor to Judge Peckham would give strength to the supreme court bench and that he would be an honor to his country and his state is self-evident. May President Taft see it in the same light! BANNER PLACARDING. Banner placarding daily is the new method of political campaigning in Vew York, and it is good and effi- cient ehough to spread, for the old dummy banner hardly pays its keep. The people like to see something do- ing every day and when such placards as the following are daily put up to the voters the political arena cannot continue to be dull: “(Get the hook! Anybody can get it for six cents anywhere. The city got the hook from O’Brien & Ryder—sixty cents per hook, five cents per screw. “It took 31 days (38 per day) to put up 1656 hooks, total cost, materials and labor $365.10, cost per hook $2.21. “Adjustable handcuffs. Police de- partment pald $4.75. We paid $2.25. “Lath nalils. Police department 20 cents. We paid 4 1-2 cents. “Lost: Below Fulton street, $52,500 a year. Total water supply 9,500,000 gallons daily. Total used 6,000,000 gal- i lons daily. - Where does the water | go? “Spotless Town hall Municipal building 1 1-2 rooms cleaned per per- son employed for the purpose. Park Row building 17. To keep this build- ing ‘clean’ cost $19,707.25 in 1907. The | American House & Window Cleaning Co. offers to do it as well as it is be- ing done for $1,500 a year.” Voters sit up and take notice when shown that tax funds are being dis- posed of in this we The people who graft after this fashion should be re- tired from public life and the tempta- PROPOSE TO CONDEMN THE AIR There is no doubt that a good doal} of air is condemnable, but the air in the open which we breath and think that we own over our property to the blue agch above us is now to be navi- gated and the old theories as to prop- erty rights are to be are right on the verge of benig re- stricted in our ownership of the blue atmosphere above us. The Aero club of America in discussing the matter is reported to have suggested that the states could condemn the air as a highway and take title to It subject to the right of the 1and owner to build as high as he likes or to make any other private use he wishes of the air above him. This isn’t going to be done without some opposition and claims for dam- ages, and it is going to make work for the lawyers and courts and “mu- sic” for all the property owners who think that the stars cross their aerial patches and that the limit of their holdings is today undefinable. Air navigation is about to compel defini- tions and limits where there have been none before. But there is no cause for worry since thig century is not likely to see this question completely settled. EDITORIAL NOTES. A western city is bound to re-elect | its mayor on the ground that he gives his entire time to public dutles. If men ever do make a Metchinkoff average in life of 140 years, it will be a most discouraging triumpH for heirs at law. ‘When men have their pictures print- ed it becomes apparent that most of them have not aged any in twenty- five years. A great many wives never become conscious of what a hard time their husbands have had keeping out of the penitentiary. President Taft gives notice that life is not made up of a series of grand- stand plays. He believes in a contin- uous performance. Vinegar may be a sure cure for shake bites, but it is not likely to be popularly accepted as a substitute for the traditional cure. Happy thought for today: It is easy to steer clear of remorse if you lend your mind and efforts to doing right from day to day. The New York politician who is now professing the love for e voter he should have for a long-lost brother, will be all over it next week. The way in which Taft and his party are moving gives assurance that he will reach Washington in time to issue his Thanksgiving proclamation. Uncle Sam’s cereals will crop four and a half billion bushels this year; and all his harvests will turn ecight billions in cash in the market. The freedom with which political leaders call one another liars in New York does not show that the unwrit- ten law is in force everywhere. The Arkansan who thinks that the world is coming to an end in Novem- ber, 1912, must be a democrat. It is very likely to be a hot old month. Better Drawing Cards.

Mrs. Blanche E. Hyde of Newton, Mass., has been elected head of the department of household economics in the new technical school at Newton. She recently completed a «our years’ course in Teachers’ college, New York, and since then has been associated with the vacation schobls in Newton. Mrs, Emmons Crocker of Oak Bluffs, Mass, state vice president of the woman’s river and harbor congress, was the only woman speaker at the national irrigation congress at Spo- kahe. She had the chief place on the programme one morning when more than 2,000 delegates from all over the world were present. She represented the General Federation of Women's Clubs. Miss Jane Wright of Cincinnati has been elected to take charge of the art library of Princeton university. She was librarian at the Cincinnati art museum and resigned to go to Prince- ton.” The trustees of Princeton are said to bave allowed the place to re- main vacant for over a year because they were anxious to get a person who measured up in every particular to the standard which they had fixed. Mrs ton, Frances Beauchamp of Lexing- speaking of the subject of prohibition, says that it is a great mis- take to think that a local-optiel measure is a victory for prohibition. “Local option was born in:a saloon in Kentucky,” she says, “on a Sunday afternoon, and it is a child of the liquor interests. They use it to de- feat us when they see our national cause growing strong.” Mrs. Beau- champ is a member of the national prohibition committee, NEEDLEWORK SUGGESTIONS.

An exquisite home-made baby cap was seen to Dbe constructed of four kinds of embroidery and three Kkinds of lace, taken from the piece bag of the clever needlewoman. Rustproof hooks and eyes are worth ripping. They should be kept in sep- arate card envelopes and be plainly marked with size and color. The hook can be slipped through the eye before putting in envelope to save time}when wanted again in a hurry. 3 When fishnet is wo for the draping of evening gow best manipulation is shown by its use on the and shoul- der drs are more elastic and ap- graceful when thus draped. a swish and swing given them by this treatment, which is foreign to even the most sheer fabrics “on the straight” of the goods. It is a nice precaution to cover large shields with silk left-overs like the lining of your new fall coat and slip- stitch the shields firmly in place un- der the arms. They are more neces- sary in the autumn than in winter, and decidedly more in order while the coat is new and its lining fresh and unspoiled. The pulling in of shields after the dama s done is like clos- ing the stable door after the horse is stolen. Corn Bread. into them a tablespeonful of melted butter. Sift together in a bowl a cup- ful of flour, two cupfuls of cornmeal, a teaspoonful of salt, a tablespoonful of sugar and two teaspoonfuls +of baking powder, Add two and a half cupfuls of milk to the eggs and butter, whip hard and beat gradually into the meal-and-flour mixture. Bake in a greased pan. HEALTH AND BEAUTY. « Gold teeth are more dificult to clean than one’s own, or even the porcelain artificial sort, for food causes gum to form on them. The very best cleanser is tepid water, but soda or borax should be used on the brush. The following mixture makes a bath to the bag that adds refreshment \ you have a sick headache, > Piils lace and daintily embmidcredi Beat three eggs very light and beat | bath: A pound and a half of new bran, three-quarters of a pound of almond meal. eight ounces of grated castile soap. Make the bags five or six inches square and fill each with three tablespoons of the mixture. The quantity given will supply seventeen bags. Before frost touches the lavender, gather it with the stalks. Dry it in the house and cut the stalks and flow- ers into pieces, Make lavender bags of lavender messaline. Line these at’ the top with silyer and tie them with silver cords and tassels. Long bags, narrow and tied at both ends, can be used to hold full-length stalks and the flowers. These can be placed in the dresser or on coathangers. The odor of lavender Is lasting. In shops were women go to have the hair treated, the op®rators are us- ing the violet ray, which is said to be very stimulating to the hair and very soothing in its effect. The harsh electrical comb treatment is no longer given through brushes, but the cur- rent is directed through the operator’'s hands. She wears an electrical brace- let upon the wrist, while the person having the hair treated holds the wet electrotrode in one hand, thus carry- ing the current through the head inte the arms. Spirits of menthol is used in the hair treatment. If has a cool, refreshing effect and is excellent for use in treating some forms of head- ache, especially eyestrain or nervous headache. DISHES. The few spoonfuls of left-over mashed potato can be used to form the foundation of rice soup. If mixed with cold chopped meat and rice, with an egg and suitable seasoning, they make appetizing croguettes. The last spoonful of jelly can be added to pies or cooked prunes. A hard-boiled egg is useful as long as there is a piece of ti in the house. Unpalatable soup meat is made very appetizing when chopped fine and mixed with a small can of salmon to form croquettes. Old bread just mow takes its form in breaderumb cakes. Soak the bread in buttermilk and use flour to thicken the batter. ! A half can of tomatoes can be used to make tomato souffle, Season with salt and pepper, add butter, strain and add a cup of cream. Serve with salt- ed crackers. A saucer of baked beans can be heated with catsup in a pan and a spoonful “on toasted crackers serves nicely for the noonday luncheon. Tough steak should be chopped and mixed with diced potatoes and then baked. Cheese grated over this dish improves the flavor. 0dd pleces of fruit, such as one ba- nand, an apple, or an orange, are mixed with lemon gelatine. LEFT-OVER Buttered Carrots. Cook peeled and sliced carrots until tender in boiling, salted water. Drain and put into a saucepan with two tablespoonfuls each of butter and su- i gar for each two cupfuls of carrots. Stir constantly until covered with syr- up and colored a little. Sprinkle with lemon juice and serve immediately. IN THE KITCHEN. Raisin Cookies. One cup sugar, creamed with 1-2 cup butter, 1 egg, 1-4 cup of milk, 1-4 cup of water, 2 cups of flour, 2 teaspoonfuls baking powder, 7 tea- spoonfuls vanilla, 1 cup chopped rai- sins. Drop a teaspoonful at a time in a buttered tine about 2 inches apart. This makes 24 cookies. Bake in moderate over 20 minutes. A Nourishing Luncheon Soup. Use the stock from boiled mutton, cooking it down to about two quarts. Add a large cupful of green peas which have been previously boiled and ‘slightly sweetened. Season with a teaspoonful of butter and a little pep- per. Cook until the peas are soft enough to press through a coarse strainer after which return to fire and when hot stir in a coffee cupful of hot milk and serve immediately. Cream Candy. Two cups sugar, 1 teaspoon cream of tartar, 1 cup water, 1 teaspoon flavor- ing. Cook sugar, water and cream of tartar until brittle when tried in cold | water, add vanilla, pour upon greased | platter or marble. Pull as soon as it can be handled. | Parker House Rolls. I To 2 cups of scalded milk add 3 tablespoonfuls of butter and 2 of su- ygar. When Jukewarm add 1 yeast ke, dissolved in 1-4 cup of tepid wa- ter; 1 teaspoonful of salt and 3 cups of flour. Beat thoroughly, cover, let rise until light, cut down and add sufficient flour to knead. Let rise again, toss on a silghtly floured board, knead, pat, and roll out to 1-3 inch in thickness, then shape with the biscuit cutter, first dipped in flour. With the blunt edge of a knife make a crease through the middle of each piece, brush over 1-2 with melted butter, fold and press » edges together. Place In greased pans an inch apart, cover, let rise and bake in a hot oven 15 to 20 min- utes, If the sponge is made overnight 1-3 of a yeast cake will be sufficient. These rolls are delicious and well re- pay the trouble of making. PLAIN FROCKS GOOD TASTE FOR CHILD. Just now the mothers of girls of school age are confronted with the problem of planning dresses for the little ones. Plain frocks are much better taste for tke maid or ten than elaborate dresses. A number of the tailored suits have deep yokes to the skirt. This adapta- tion of the styles of adults is also seen in the soat The most exclusive of the shops make a big feature of wash dresses for winter wear. The exclusive set affect a rigid simplicity in the dress— ing of the child The washable materials are so at- tractive for young girls that where expense need not be considered it is much smarter to follow this plan of dress. - The English linens come in fascin- ating shades and they respond so read- ily to the artistic touch of the em- ! broidery. In hats for young girls beavers take the lead, but French felts are also quite popular. At the smart shops children’s school hats are extremely simple ,showing only small bows, small bunches of rose buds or a band of silk.
