HAKES A FEW SEKASES. To the Editor of The Newtown Bee: We feel sure that O. O. W.'s article on gome "remarks" of ouri, was enjoyed by all your readers and we hope they will eDjoy the following : O. O. W. "is al ways interesting" and we like to "bring him oat." "My next" will be on an other subject. I conclude from his 19 references to "pod augers" and all other kinds that be knows more about them than be does about "scientific farming." He says "be tried to bore with a pod auger when he was a boy but he didn't succeed," etc. Perhaps he was not a precocious boy. We tried a two-inch screw auger" after we was "of age," and we could not well bore bar post holes with it, and found that the con temporary of the pod auger, the "post axe," was easier and better. The sigh we gave for the "Old pod auger Days," was the heading of some verses by, per haps, the same author who sighed for "The good old days of Adam and of Eve." Yes, we do not favor the trolley, except outside of the streets of our cities and our highways. Let traction com panies build their own bridges, and not be granted a license to murder so many. It is said that the trolley has killed over 2G0 In Brooklyn already. We are not sure that our parson has been "dis armed," as Sam Law son did his; but we think O. O. W. "disarmed himself" when he said in his paper on "Scientific Farm ing," that "Machinery sometimes die placed men, but created other work," representing that machinery did not makt less work for men. If this is so, what is their use? We called attention to the fact that we have a million and a half of tramps and I may well add that these "scientific machines" are making hundreds more daily. "Satan finds some mischief still for idle hands to do." O. O. W. never attempted a reply to my criticism except to display his wit and ability to ridicule. When he attacked my muse, another quotation from Shakespeare came tome: "This is the unkindest cut of all." It does "matter whether we have beard scientific preaching or not." We have heard our literary parson several times, and we in tend to hear him more even if he does try to bury an old fossil with "pod aug ers." G. W.B. A select party of young people gath ered at the home of Miss Alice Andrews in Taunton district, Tuesday evening, March 9, to celebrate her 19th birthday, the number of guests equaling the years of her age. The hours passed rapidly with games and lively chat. At 11.30 the guests were summoned to a table boun tifully ladened with all the tempting dainties one could desire, and graced by a large decorated birthday cake bearing name and age. She was the recipient of many valuable and useful gifts. When the dawn of day began to tinge the east ern sky the guests departed wishing their hostess many happy returns of the day and all agreeing that they had spent the most enjoyable evening of the sea son. Ten dollars' worth of paint judiciously distributed adds S2 to the sell ing and 8 to the livlng-in-value or a 1000 bouse. It pays to have your house painted with the best paint, it saves work, worry and money. The John W. Masury & Son's celebrated railroad paint has been used for years and stood the test better than any other pa'.nt in the market and is the only paint that will hold Its color near the salt water. This paint is for home use, doGsn't crack, blister or peel off when properly applied, gives a handsome glotisy surface, flows smoothly, dries quickly and is in all colors ready for use. It covers more surface, wears longer and looks better than any other paint. Harry Elder, 444 Water street, Bridge port Is the agent tor these paints. Many cases "of "Grippe" have lately been cured by One Minute cough cure. This preparation seems especially adapted to the cure ot this disease.

The sooner you begin to fight the fire, the more easily it may be extinguished, The sooner you begin taking Ayer's sar- saparilla for your blood-disease, the easier will be the cure. In both cases, delay is dangerous, if not fatal. Be! sure you get Ayer's and no other.

Banks, by sawing a hole on the north side. This means of entrance was resorted to to avoid the buiglar alarm. A hole was drilled in the top of the safe and the door blown off. They secured about $100. Two strange men were seen to get off the trolley at Southport that evening and come towards Green field Hill.
