LETTERS DISTRIBUTED IN THE WRONG WAY. it Broke When Rural Carrier Tooker Was on His Route. Love letters, pioture postals, news- papers and the other things that make up the usual mail were ruthlessiy strewn along the road from Montville 10 Palmertown Thursday morning when the horse drawing the rural free aeliv- ery wagon ran away, threw the carrier, Fred Tooker, out into the road and demolished the mail wagon. Mr. Took- er was severely shaken up and suffered a badly cut hand and a bruised thigh. The runaway occurred about 9 oclock. Mr. Tooker drew up on the Palmertown road near the Palmer Memorial school, to talk to a friend As he did the bit broke and the horse dashed up the road. Mr, Tooker was tossed out apd the horse continued on its wild up the road, leaving love missives and less romantic mail in his wake.. In Oak- dale, near the residence of Bernard Johnson, the herse coilided with one of J. D. Latnrop's coal wagons. Here the horse freed himseif from the wagon. which was left in the road, severely damaged. When last heard of, the meil horse was runnine down the back road toward Quaker Hill. The next horse that is put on the Montville mail route will be obliged first to pass civil service, particularly that part relating to runaways, for Montville maidens want to take no chances on having their love letters tcssed onto rustic bridges or into vil- lage brooks.

Two peddlers who were selling bas kets of grapes from a wagon in the sireets on Thursdav. disposed of one “Sang man who teok the caution to open it before he got away. The result was that he fcund a mess of mou.dy grapes. TUpon asking to luve the basket exchanged he had troub'e with the seller, with the resuit that he took the matter to the pelice.

The town and county authorities made no objection to the plarr which was proposed by the exes utive committee, and on Thursrday the insurance 'was renewed. There was about $100,000 of the total of $140,000 carried which on a but that which did not expire was can- celled and new insurance written for the entire building, so that it will all re now in three years. he insurance is now $£240,000 on the building and furnishings, and it was divided among the 20 insurance agents L NU| here, so that each has $12,000 of it, the forms furnished by the rate commit- tee of the local board of fire underwrit- ers being used. Under the old insurance of $140,000 there was the flat rate of 1.42 a thou- sand, but the new Insurance is taken out under the 30 per cent. clause, which cost 18 1 per cent. of the total, or $2,400. This is for three years, At the ned of the first year it is possible | to cancel such a part of it as will bring | a third of it due each year, instead of making it necessary to pay it all every three years. By the mew plan in case of a loss the city will receive more money from the insurance than under ihe old. The insurance is paid by the city, town and | county, the policles being made out in | that form. The cost of the insurance | by this change is about $300 more, but it was considered that the.increased protection warranted it. The insurance is divided as follows: Building $220,000, fixtures $20,000, which are considered | the sound valué of the property.

Waite Book of Ceremouial Magic. Here is a recipe for becoming invis- ible: “Begin this operation on a Wednes- day before the sun rises, being fur- nished with seven black beans. Take next the head of a dead man. Place one of the beans in Lis mouth, two in his eyes and two in his ears. Then make upon the head the character of the figure which here follows. (Omit- ted) This doune, Iuter the head with the face toward heaven, and every day before sunrise for the space of nine days water It with excellent brandy. “On the eighth day you will find the cited spirit, who will say unto you: “What doest thou? You shall reply: ‘I am watering my plant” He will then say: ‘Give me that bottle; I will water it myself." You will answer by refus- ing, and he will again ask you, but you will persist in declining until he shall stretch forth his hand and show you the same figure which you have traced upon the head suspended from the tips of his fingers. In this case you may be assured that it is really the spirit of the head, because another might take you unawares, which would bring you evil, and, further, your operation would be unfruitful. ‘When you have given him your vial he will water the head and depart On the morrow, which is the ninth day, you shall return and shall find your beans ripe. Take them, place one In your mouth and then Jook at yourself in a glass. If you cannot see yourself it is good. Do the same with the rest or they may be tested in the mouth of a child The Old, Old Story. “What did you do when your hus- band told you the old, old story ?" “I told him to shut up before he was half through.” “Why. what a funny way to reply to & confession of love!” “Oh, s that wkat you mean? 1 thought you meant the story he told Iast night when he came home from a time with the boys.” —Houston Post.
