A Whittall THIS IS THE RUG ~ . . ON THE . SIDEWALK WHITTALL Anglo-Persian and sells for $53.75 : The Sidewalk Test The-public test is- made to demonstrate the su- perfor wearing qualities of Whittall Rugs. It is a perfectly new Whittall Anglo - Persian Rug taken ffom our regular stock, size 8-3x10-6 and sells the world over for $53.75. Its colors are ordinarily con- sidered perishable. Rain or ‘shine it will stay on the sidewalk for ene week. The manufacturers want this Rug to be walked on, they want as many as possible to pass over it. The reason for this unusual demonstration is a de- sire to 'prove beyond question that ‘Whittall Rugs are ;" durable ynder-extreme conditions and that the-colore " are absolutely fast. They hope it will rain so that mud .may be tracked upon this*rug and ground 5 inte it. The Anglo-Persian grade was chosen because of all the Whittail fabrics this is the most finely woven in the softest colors and.yet-durability has-not been sacrificed for boauty. ‘Murray’s Boston Store WILLIMANTIC, CONN.

After the test this Rug will be thoroughly cleaned and placed in the window where everybody will be invited to examine it closely and thus ses just how well it has withstood such abuse. Then it will be sold to the highest bidder. The bids must be sealed when sent in and anyone may bid for the Rug...See it before your make your bid. {You will find that even after such a severe eoxposure, this Whittall Anglo-Persian Rug is a better rug, and a far better money valus than most new rugs. Those who are familiar with Whittell quality know in advance that this rug will not be injured in the least, otherwise the public demonstration would not be made. But it is hard for the ordinary housewife to realize that any carpet, however good it may be can go through such a gruelling test and come out as good as new and this will be proven beyond a doubt.

Belief That Robert Carpenter Must Have Fallen Overboard. Robert Carpenter, son of Mr. and Mrs, George Carpenter, who live at Doyle’s Crossing, was supposed to be drowned Mondey afternoon, near New London lght. Mr. Carpenter, ‘who had been in ill health for for about a year, had been going craw fishing all summer, and stapted out Monday mornin- as uswmal, alone. ~About 3 o'clock Monday afternoon his boat was found by Frank Fitch floating around. Mr. Fitch on examination found there was no one in the Dboat and that the engine was rugning. It is supposed in hawling in his gears Mr. Carpenter fell_overboard. & Hig boat was brought into Noank by Rheumatism Soon Becomes Chronic The Result of Tired Kidneys Failing to Expel Poisonous Waste Matter. Tired, overworked kidneys allow poisonous uric acid to remain in the blood instead of expelling it from the system. That is the cause of chronic rheumatism. The disease gets into some joint or group of muscles and settles there, and only strenuous treatment will dislodge it. Rheuma softens the uric acid crys- tals lodged in the joints and muscles, causing the terrible pains, and passes them out of the system through the kidneys and bowels. All the blood in the body passes through the Kidneys once every three minutes. Unless it is pure the organs become diseased. Rheuma purifies the blood and the kidneys, then regain their natural aectivity. Lee & Osgood and all druggists sell Rheuma at a price s0 ine lve that it 1s folly to be without it. James Tevlin of New London was a Sunday visitor with friends in Dan- ielson, Hag Shot Four Coons. James Kent of Elmville has shot two ‘more ‘coons, one weighing 18, the other 15.pounds. This makes four of the animals taken by Mr. Kent this sea- son. District Meeting Planned.

Today (Tuesday) marks the ]lln}! of time for the filing by candidates in Killingly's last town election of their campaign expenses. Most of the re- turns will shéw go expensesincurred. It prescriptions for liquor are going to be available for ten cents each in the town of Killingly during the com- in? year of no-license the town's vote will not amount to much. This will probably not prove to be the case, however. Dancing—Instruction in modern dances, Phoenix hall, Wednesday, 4.30 and 8.30 p. m. Phone 275-5, Daniel- son. Marguerite I.

Death of Matthew McManus. Matthew McManus, for many years a resident of Danielson, living on, what is now the borough farm on lower Dyer street, died last Thursday in ‘Webster, where -he removed with his family a number of years ago.

John Lucier, Who Robbed Reommate of $100, Lost |t—Penalty for Taking Short Pickerel, One man, John Lucler, charged with stealing $100 from a roommate in a boarding house at Attawaugan, two others, Everett Albro and Charles Hen- ry, charged with taking “short” pick- erel, and Frank Rogers, charged with intexieation and bdreach of the peace in Dayvilie Sunday, were before Judge Harry E. Back in the town court Mon- day morning. Probable cause was found for hold- int Ducler for trial at the superior court, his offense being sufficiently gravated to warrant such action. default of the amount of his bond, fixed by the court at $500, he was taken to Brooklyn jail by Deputy Sheriff Michaei Grimshaw, from a rei- of whors he took the money, Lu- T was arrested in Woonsocket Sat- urday. When taken he was without the stolen money and told one of the officers that he became intoxicated and when he awakened from a sleep into which he fell he was broke. 0 and Henry, charged with tak- ing tie undersized pickerel, were ar- irested by Game Warden Arthur Day and Srecial Game Protector F.

Of the six men in the field for the two of- fices—candidates of the republican, democratic and progressive parties— no words but good words are spoken. It is this fact and the high standing of the men that makes the outcome of the contest so difficult to forecast. There is,-of course, an cccasional in- dividual who has a grievance against some one of the sextette, but the fact stands out that they are all stron candidates and vote-getters. It wil be a mighty difficult, almost impos- sible, feat, for party leaders to keep the rank and file from splitting tickets that votes may be cast for friends of opposite political faiths, but this is what they are striving to do—each with his own .party. The other fel- lows’ “splitting to help is, of.course, another praposition, Attended . Chapin-Hibbard Wedding. Many Danielson people were at Providence Monday afterndon for the wedding, at 5 o'clock, of Miss Mabel Hibbard, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Nathaniel Hibbard, and Henry W. Chapin of this town.

It was stated here Monday that a remonstrance may be filed with the county commissioners against the re- newal of one of the licenses in the ‘business section of the city. 1,544 Telephone Stations. The current issue of the Telephone Bulletin shows the number of tele- phones in the Putnam division in- creased to 1,544, the second largest division jn ‘Windham county. It is probable that there will be no more sessions of the superior court in this city during the present month, the sittings to be at Willimantic. Cutting Up Old Fair Ground. At the old fair grounds on Park street, streets are being run through the property, which is to be divided into house lots and developed as a residential section. This surely marks the end of racing at the grounds, though some have hoped the sport would be revived there. It will take much more rain than fell during Friday and Saturday to start wells flowing that went dry sev- eral weeks ago, as springs must first fill up. Drawing water in barrels for the use of cattle is stil in vogue in some places. Numbers of ring-necked pheasents are being brought in by hunters, not many by any one hunter, but the to- tal is large. The birds are larger than partridge and are said by many to be fully as good eating. Saw Horses Bound for Europe. Dolor Viens has returned from In- dianapolis, where he went as a dele- gate to tho national convention of journeymen barbers.

Quarrelsoms Caller Punished. Henry Proulx, who engaged in an altercation at a home in the north sec- tion of the city, was before Judge J. Harry Mann, in the city court Monday morning. He was sentenced to serve B0 gavs for breach of the peace and 30 days for assault. Enthusiasm for Connolly ‘Night. An enthusiastic meeting of fans was held in F. of A. hail Monday evening to make arrangements for Connolly day, which will be next Saturday. The event will be made one of note and is expected to attract baseball fans from all this section of the state, for an op- portunity will be given to see the member of the " Braves play in thefame that has been echeduled.

Report was made to the police Mon~ Glay that the Maheu restaurant in Pomfret street had been broken into during- the night and a coin-operating ¥as meter stolen. This piece of work, as it was done, had possibilities of fa- tal results for persons sleeping in the building, for when the meter was taken away a stream of gas was lett flowing from a three-quarter inch pipe. The noise made by the crook—there is good reason for assuming there was.only investigation cause cause of the leak. A wrench .missing from a :fio that was broken into was probably used in taking off the meter, which the thief carried away with him that he might have opportunity to remove at his leisure the quarterg that were In = 1 I The young man who did the work is most certainly familiar with the prem- ises.

It is evident.| however, that the man who so cleverly! duped his victim out of a sum trust-| worthily represented as being in the| nelghborhood of $16,000, is one of the| craftiest swindlers at jarge in the United States today, and that he has| operated with startling success inj widespread sections of the country. it iz as completely gone as the last rose of summer. The attention of thel Connecticut state police has been ull-; ed to the case and undoubdtedly the at-| tention of the police of other states. The man and his game are known.| but his capture is proving a mighty! difficult proposition.
