Newtown's fame -has been
brought to public attention once more for
last Friday apparently the father of all
eels was placed on exhibition at Mr
Augur's market at Sandy Hook by John
Minor oi lierfcshire. This famous eel
tipped the scales to the tune of nine
pounds, measured four feet in lengtn
and 10 Inches In circumference. It was
caught or found by - William Shea of
Berkshire on bis land. It seems that
that there are some irrigating ditches on
his land that water the meadow land
and during the recent hard rain when
the water was high Father Eel thought
he would forage out in the byways of
the Berkshire stream. He stayed a little
too long on his vacation trip for the
water went down so that he was shut off
from the brook and in this plight Mr
Shea found him. Others have been
found in the same locality weighing
seven poonds but this old fellow beats
all the eels ever heard of in Newtown.
Several Sandy Hook families can attest
that he was good eating, for Mr Briscoe
treated his friends to a good square
meal of eel on Saturday.

Mrs W. B. Meek, who resides at Camp-

several years troubled at times with se
vere cramps in the stomach, and would
be in such agony that it was necessary
to call in a physician. Having read
about; Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Iismedy she concluded to try
it. She found that it always gave
prompt relief. It was seldom necessary
to give the second dose. "It has not only
saved us lots of worry and time," she
says, "but also doctor bills. It is my
opinion that every family should have a
Dottle or this remedy in the bouse."
