The Circulation of The Builetin The Bulletin has the largest circulation of any paper in East- ern Connecticut and from three to four times larger than that of any in Nerwich.

In Windham it is delivered to over 800 houses, in Putnam and Danielson to over 1,100 and in all of these places it is consid- ered the lccal daily. Eastern Connecticut has forty- nine towns, one hundred and sixty-five postoffice districts, and sixtv rural free delivery routes. 999505300953999239993 20 P that this couple, who were not actu- jated by poverty, had even talked of |dropping their voungest out of a car |window in order to get rid of it, and and diametrically opposite to what any parent should pursue, GERMANY’S WARNING.

A little reflection will convince one that correct spelling is _learned in three ways: X 1—By eye. 5 2—By ear 3—By trick. Pupils taught in the old-fashioned method of the country schools, wiih their frequent spelling matches when it was an honor never to be “spelled down”, will tell you that they recall Just how the words looked in ihe Tong Columns which they used to study so diligently. When doubtful as to- the spelling of any word, the way the en- tiro column looked is frequently re- called. " This is a case where the helped. Helpful, too, was the mothod of | some instructers of having children| write any mis-spelled word fifty or sixty times in its correct form. Such | a word was likely to stick! | When pupils epelled puzsling words in concert, as they used to do in the little red schooihouse of sentimental memory, the ear helped. In most| spelling’ books, words sounding alike | are grouped, from the time the small child begins with at, cat, bat, fat, mat and so on. aid here. The sense of hearing is an But with what might be called the arbitrariness of 30 many words in the | glish language, where analogy can- | not be depended upon to aid, learning to' spell correctly by trick seems the| only refuge, It ‘may be a trick of contrast: as, for instance, j-u-d-g-m-e-n- j-u-d-g-e-s-h-i-D, two words mis-spelled by nine per- sons out of ten Maybe it is the trick of phonetic pronunciation, as in the case of & word almost univereally mis-spelled: ga-uge. Or another upon which so many “fali_down,” issespective of age, color, d their liveg in saving those who could not save themselves and in heal- iing the ulcers which they had nothing to do with creating. The men who are destined to repair the damage that is being done today are greater than those who made their work a neces- sity. The man who can take a drink or let it alone seems to be in no haste to prove his words. Such a man thinks he is speaking the truth when he is only giving color to a.hallucination. He is like every other man who is cul- tivating a habit, not aware what a grip the habit has on him. The first im- pression a_babit'makes is that it is a pleasure—the last, that it is the master and you its slave. There comes a day when these fellows who can take a drink or let it alone know they do mnot tell the truth. John Barlevcorn makes them conscious he has gained the up- per hand when he has it, and in their hearts they know he is their master.

The schools will be accused of faulty teaching, lax msethods, etc. It would seem ad though the only way to direct attention to this glar- ing inability to epell and to- bring about a reform, would be to arouse public sentiment to the incitement of a healthy sense of shame at poor spelling.

This act on the part of the Duke caused great excitement, and he was arrested in_conformity with the law of 1836, which forbade the soil of Franc to the direc rs of the fam- ilies which had reigned there. When the Duke reached Paris on Feb. 7,,he was driven to the home of de Lauyne and taken to the Prefecture of On the afternoon of the same he was arraigned before the mil- autlorities, following which the Minister of Interior, M. Constans, or- dered that he be held in custody. He was placed in the Conciergerte Prison. On the first day of his trial, when the charges were read to him, his only reply was that he had come to France to perform his military duties and drafted a letter to President Car- no! ating nis desire to serve country. The trial was continueq until the fol- lowing Wednesday, Feb. 12. On that last day the crowd of spectators was so large and so demonstrative in faver of young Orleans that the gendarmes were compelled to clear the room.

The counsel further contended that the law imposing military service upon all Frenchmen nullified the law relat- ing to the exile of prince: The Duke addressed the Coust in his own behalf.

Both of the we first ports are cosmopolitan to a point of wild confusion: every and custom being native to their manner, the com- mon denominator for the reduction of a world of peculiarities being found in their counting houses and_cxchanges. The city-state Hamburg has an area of 160 square miles, and is exceedingly ich in agricultu meat, dairy and fruit produce, while the city proper covers barely 29 square miles.

There is little old world piquancy about Hamburg. It is as strictly a growth of business and oversea trade as is the cit) f New TYork. Such buildings of historic interest as there are in the city, such art and bohemian life as it possesses, are so effectually erowded into the background by high office buildings. congestions of cum- bersome freight drays, the sirens and a tongue speaking of deals, of and of cent per cent. that they remain unsuspected by visiting _Americans, who feel themselves more thoroughly a. proper part of Hamburg than of any | other German city, not excepting Ber- lin. There are few statues, few muse- ums, f tecture, few things of any being is derived less from practical advantage than from sentiment. Residential and business Hamburg lies upon the north bank of the Elbe, profit and loss, while alorng the south bank and in- denting it for thousands of vards are | hundreds of channels, harbors, canals |and siips, worked out in a great, weird | tangle of wharves, warehouses, passen- ser piers, eclevators, bridges, railways and all manner and description of ships and products for shipping. Many mil- lions of dollars have been spent in the development of this marvelous harbor. { Nearly 10.000 vessels, both river and oversea, clear frem this harbor during 2 year's course in normal times. The inner or business city is com- posed of an old and new town. The new town, modern in every way, arose out of the ashes of that part of Ham- burg desiroved by the great fire of 1842. The old town is for the most part a warehouse district, and it i8 pierced by numerous canals.

Progress toward consolidating the various business, industrial and civic organizations of the city into a Cham- ber of Commerce or an enlarged Board of Trede is being made as rapidly as the circumstances of the case permit.
