The boy said the clerk was still searching for the white lamp black, adding: “I fooled the clerk; and now Ill fool you, by keep- ing yqur half dollar.” And he did. As the boy scampered off he shouted: “Say, mister; how do you like Adam Goodsell? That's me.” Several hundred assembled in Dixon square Thursday noon, April first, to hear that concert by E. Z. Guyman's Boston band, and to listen to the address of Lirpa Reloof, of Stillman- ville.

At present there is no property ex- empt from taxation in the town of Stoningten under section 1161 of the general statutes. The sum of $7,307,401 is the true amount of the Stonington grand Ilist for 1919, and the amount an 18 mill tax will raise is $131,533.21. In order to carry en the town work for the year will be added the sum of $5.400 which comes from the state on account of enumeration of school chil- dren -and any sum of back taxes which may be collected, and this should be a good amonnt. There is about $12,000 back taxes dues, and in 1918 the sum of $10.505.68 was collected. This year of the $12,000 due there should at least be $9,000 col- lected, and so the total income of the WHEN YOU BUY A DIAMOND’ De you know that the one-carat diamond, sparkling on the finger of the season's debutante, speaks for 80 tens of rock, buried 2,000 feet deep on the other side of the world, | which has required three years of time and skilled labor to create into a gem of such rare beauty ? Is it any wonder that good diamonds are among the most precious of stones ? When you buy a diamond, insist upon the great-- est brilliancy you can find. With this, couple the purest co"lor obtainable. If limited in your expenditure, let weight decide its price. Never sacrifice brilliancy and fine color for mere size. ? Most important of all, “when you buy a diamond,” it is well to remember that the integrity and dependabjity of the house from which your purchase is made is your safest guarantee, Latosca Fine Pearl Beads Richelieu - Rosaries McEwen & Chapm Phoenix-Building Main Street town should be as follows: Tax levy of 1919, $131,533.21; from state on school account, $5,400; from back taxes, $9,000; total. $145933.21; total income in 1918, $138,830.22; in- crease income in 1919, $7,102.99, Stoningteon Pointers.
