Danielson ladies who are always in- terested in the institution are making arrangements to send Thanksgiving gifts of the usual variety to the Day Kimball hospital at Putnam. Each year at Thanksgiving a number here practice sending gifts of vegetables, canned goods, fruits, groceries, etc. to the hospital and this is also true of workers for the hospital in Brook- I¥n and other surrounding towns.

Ben- nett of Mechanic street as a star wit- ness for the state in the trial of At- torney Frank E. Howarth at the su- perior’ court in Willimantic came as a decided surprise for all but a very few persons in Danielson who were aware that she has been working with the state police on the case since May. Mrs, Bennett is the widow of Israel Bennett, who was a well known turf- man and hotel owner in Danielson for many years. Dayville Men’s Club Meets.

Richmecnd A CHILD'S LAXATIVE % IS “8YRUP OF FIGS.” Ther Love to Take it and Harm the Tender Littie Liver and Bowels. it Don’t Stomach, If your little one’s tongue i8 coated, it is a sure sign the stomach; liver and bowels need a gentle, thorough cleansing at once. When your child is cross, peevish, listless, pele, doesn’t sleep, eat or act naturally; if breath is bad, stomach sour, system full of cold, throat sore, or If feverish, give a teaspoonful of “California Syrup of | Figs,” and in a few hours all the clogged-up, constipated waste, sour bile and undigested food will gently move out of the bowels, and you have a well, playful child again. Sick children needn’t be coaxed to take this harmless ‘“fruit laxative.” Millions of mothers keep it handy be- cause they know its action on the stomach, liver and bowsls is prompt and sure. They also know a little given today saves a sick child tomor- row. {2 Ask your druggist for a 50-cent bottle of “Californla Byrup of Figs” which contains directions for babies, chidren of all ages and for grown-ups plainly on the bottle.

Reassessing Held Back. Now that Attorn Charles E. Searls has given his opinion that the special committee appointeq at the annual town meeting last month has no right to expend funds of the town in con- nection with the re sment of prop- erty plan it is not likely that any defi- nite action will be taken relative to re- assessing until a special town meeting has expressed itself on the matter. Does His Whole Duty. Hon. George A. Hammond of this city pays a tribute to Congressman Jeremiah Donovan of- the Connecticut delegation for his attention to his duties at Washington.

An Abington correspondent writes of a pear tree planted 150 years ago on the oid- Trowbridge place on ragged hill and of a pretty legend relative to the tree, which still bears fruit, which | though small is perfectly formed and of fine flavor.

The seed of the pears was members of sweet - planteq by Jthe heart’'s family, a ‘tree eventually grew and continues to hear fruit after all the years. “What could the motive have been’ This seems to be the universal qu tion asked in connection with te trial | of Attorney Frank B.
