A maple sugar exchange is lalked of
in Ihe State to guard against adultern-
tion. lt is said Ihat the abuso of Ihe
genuine article is resulling seriously to
farmers. llienverago annual product
is about 13.000,000 pounds; and last

Until within a few ycars tho aduliera-

farmers of Vermont. Even today it is
not extensively practiced, and it is

derstood the procei-s of adulteration or
have any tiispasiuon lo ie.rn now. ihe
maole is everywhere ubundant iu Ver

of the vear when the farmer has noth-
ing else important to do, and the cron is
always in demand. Only a small part

We have publlshed tn our colums from
ume to time dillerent advertUeinents in
regard to Bright's Disease nnd its cures.
What is this terrible disease ?
We have taken the Irouble to make an
investigation from Ihe best sources and
we givo Ihe resulls to our readera
What astonishes us is the general in
difference given to kidney disorders.
Tho kidneys do not sottad ihe alarm of
their diseased condition, owing to the
fact that they have very few nerves,
hence few suspct that there is any dis
ease in them. Irritatinn, intlanimation,
ulcerntion set tn, and then Iho little
lulii'B. of which the kidneys are full. are
destroyed and thrown off'and from this
fact are called lube castB.
As soon as Ihis hegins to take place it
is only a question ol how fast decompo
sitinn goes on before the disease results
fatally. If the proper remediea are ta
ken before flnal decomposition or waste
of these tubeH coinmences or becomes too
far adyaiiced. that Is the only and last
ohance for relief. It is at this point or
before that Warnerssafe curo proves so
benelicial, nnd may cure or 'top the
wasting away of the kidneys if t has
not advanced too I'ar.
Tlie most remarkuhle thing of all our
inveidigation is ihe fact that the patient
witli Bright's divease has no exclusivc
aymptoms of every common diiieafe.
ritai lie may possiiuy retil a duu pain
in his back. generally upon one side.
which does not bchir him from hisusual
husiness rounne. Afler a time he may
begin lo fiel neuralgic pains, or havo h
Klight altuck of what he may call rheu
inatlsin, or hcadache, witli h'gh ()r dark
cotored tirine, with au Unpleasant sensa
tion in ils pasange. and nfter standing
shuwing an unnaiur.il comliiion of the
atomach, Any one of thet.e syraptoms
is liablo to nccur.
This no doubt explains why the pro
prietors of Warner's safe eure ar cur
in so many diseases. Tlv reiulatine
and building up ihe kidneys. symp'oma
of general ill-hcalth dlsappear. They
juslly accuse tho medical profession of
ircating tne eiiects nuu not me onuse.
Finally lf this disorder is tieglecled the
patient eilher cliesof apoplexy. pneumo
nia, heart disease, blood poi'on, con
sumplion, or nny other disease that the
system is most subject to.
There appears lo be some one cause
for nearly every other ailment of the
human svslern, but up to the preieni
time no one has been able to fully ac
count fnr ihis terrible malady. We un
dert n 1 that the penple of Uertnanv

The spring had been Iate and some o

when Mabel droye to her old home ti
keep her yyst. She could hardly re-
iruui ner tears as sue waiatu over uit
ttle grass grown path tn the door into
which she litted the key; the door
wung open, but tliere was no deai
mother's face to welcome her, and nc
father's cheery smilo as in the days gone
by. She threw open tho blinds and a
flood of sunshine fillid the sitting room:
hen tearing a rtnptroma curtain in
he pantry, she dusled the wide window
set in tho western window and curled
herself up to wait and ihink. but when
she thought how many, many times she
had nestled in th.it sanie window seat
while the now barren aud desolato room
was full of love and coinforl for her,she
sohhed aloud,
Afler the temnest of criet had spenl

way much of the bitternessshe had feli
f Iate, and the miserahle unhaopy feel-

from the old well trounli and felt re-
freshed and coinfurted. The soporio ef
fect of the sunshine, combined with the
exhaustion attendant on her recent pas-
sion of grief were poteni, and, with m
long drawn breath she cuddled her head
against the case and cloaed her eyes.
Twenty minutes later. an iron-gray
horse.harnesaed to a hght buggy.troited
down ihe road and slowed up to the

told no tales. Mr. Forsyth tied his hore

At the time of wlucli I write theie
vas connected with the Buffalo, N. Y.
Courrier a corps of young reporters who
nade it a point not to get "left if there

)n the occasion of the vibit of two of

viiit Niagara F.ilN and of courae there
vas the unriost rivilry among Ihe rep
ejenlatives of Iho press to get full and
letailed reports of all ihat they did and
aid.fo far as p i'sible. When tlie Princc
ind I'rincess reaclud Ihe Amencan side
if tlie river, a scori' or more of reporters
vere on hand to glean all the informa
lon oblainable, an 1 the Canadian news
paper men attached lo tho p.irty were
it once beseigiied hy tlieir American
lrethren. With the" u'ual John Bull
'lillness they snbbid "iho boys" unmer
nifully.nnly oondcscending to lell a very
'ittle, and lt laler h'akd out Ihat they
lid not know ar.)thing wortli telling,
A young man nanied Jiinmy Black and
he writer hail been delailed by the
Courier to go to the Falls, and "do tho
royal party in grtat ehnpe." To tell Ihe
truth it was not a j ib uiuch to my hk
'ng, but Jimrny u3 dehglited, and de
clared that he woul ' ' show those Eng
t is li snobs a thing or two before he got
through with them."
After arriving nt tlie Falls we dtvided
our work so that tlie writer was to get
hedeiailsof the make-up party, where
ihey came from, hnw Imig they were to
Htay.and generally look after the routine
work descnptive o: their visit. Jiinmy
was to act the part of "Free Ltnce," and
vatch his opp'i'rtuiilly lo get any good
hing of a pcr.-on.ii nature that he could.
Of cour'.e the lirai nrt required no p.ir
ncular exhibition of cheek, for all Ihe
information could be oblained from at
taches of the paity and hy keeping oue's
-yes open.
What Jimmy i'dended to do I had no
nlea, neither had ihe other American
reporters or Canr.dUn llunkeys. Tho
latter felt supreraeiy happy because they
had, as they declned, 'got solid' with
Ihe baggagenian of ihe party, and that
uniformed servant had condescended to
let them look at Ihe trunks of their Boy-
Highnesses But Jiinmy tumed up
hia nose at such 'truck,' as he expressed
it, and kept his eyi s i.pen. Toward the
middle of th afttrnoon liie distinguish
ed couplo started from the hotel alone
to view the Falls, tbe crowd of newspa
per men, myself among the number,
agerly watclnng tluin; but I niissed
Jimmy. Where waa he was a question
that was agitating my inind.when judge
of my surpnae at soeing him step out
Irom a by path, an I, jiimtily lifting hia
hat, jjln the coupl- iu iheir walk to ta
ble rock. There waa a great wonder
among the other repnrt-rs as to who tho
pre!umptuous lndividml could be who
dared intrurte on the society of the
Prince and Princets. 1 kept eilent, and
soon found my way lo our room to (inish
iny writing, tully continced that 1 nau
no more to do, for if J.nimy had once
got after them theto would be no room
Ior any further buMnest on my end of
ihe job.
lt was luliy an hour later when ne
bounced into the room, threw his derby
n one corner. nulNd olt his coat and
shot that in another, aud, with a 'Hur-
rah for our side! b'gmi lo write. Alter
he had rattled oll nearly two coluuins.
and our uniled report had boen sent to
ihe home olllce, he said, ' well old man.
I've got the best of the wholo party
Mr. James UlacK. the writer responaeu
you have got the moi-t coloasal cheek of
any m in I ever knew. But tell mo how
you worked it.'
Well. you see l had become dipgusteu
with Ihoie Canadmn chumps and be-
DiincleiJ llunkevs. and Had etarted ouc
for a walk, when who i-hould I see coin
ing but tbe Pr nco and Princess. Im
mediaielv the idea of a personal inter-
vtew suggested ilsclf, nnd 1 braced up
and sailed in. Of coursa I did not let
them kiiow I was a reporled, but poaed
at a visitor tn the great natural cunosiiy,
like ihemselves. They Ulked quile rree
ly, especially the Princess, nlthough the
Prince was incline l tn be still at first.
They expressed them'elves delighted
with tho Jcaiia, anu i, nemg pretty weu
Dosted as to the pointa of interest, vol-
unteered all the iaforiualion possible.re
ceiving the thanks of Ihe Princess for
the pointers I gave her. After I had
cnnversed with them for some time the
Princess asked my name and residence.
I told her my ci gnninen was James
Black and that l was a reporter on the
Courier, of Buffsio. Well, you should
have seen his rotul highnesa congeai.
Whv. he became an tceberg instanter.
but the lady laughed nglit hearlily and
insinuated the same thing as you have
accued me of. You nuy infer that I
did not press mj cnmpany on them
much longer. ulthougli I Ihinl; the
Princess would no: have been averse to
mv remainine. I polilely lifted my hat
and bade them good afternoon, taking
occasion to let them undersland that I
knew who they were.
As a re-ult of Ihis exlilbiuon ot nerve
ihe Courier was the only paper in tho
country that pubhahed a personal iuter-
vlew w th the distmgunneu people, anu
Jimmy received the thanks of the man
aging editor for his enterprise. This
stroke of work was a great thing for the
Courier, and gave it Ihe right to claim
lo be most wide-twake paper in weaiern
New York, one which gol the news f
interest regardlessof expense. Man up
