THE ST. JOHNSBUliV CALEDONIAN, JUNE 8, 1893
IIAHSIl CRITICJSM-
Thc great Paderewski will go
home richer liy $1 00,000 than when
he came to America, andjhis trip has
been the most profitable one finan
cially that has ever been made by
any artist, lecturer or actor. But the
Tolish pianist received some pretty
hard knocks out West. At St. Louis
signs greeted him in the dressing
room with the laconic inscription,
"Get your hair cut." He played
twice at the World's Fair and was
unmercifully scored by the Chicago
papers. One referred to him as the
"long-haired piano pounder and
pompadour phenomenon," while
another said editorially, "Music
Hall has been dedicuted and Pade
rewski, the human chrysantlienum,
did the job. Paddy can knock a
bigger job lot ol assorted noises out
of a piano in n given time than any
other man in the world." After
such unjust treatment from the Chi
cago papers it is not surprising that
he said when he returned to New
York, "111 shoot myself before I'll
play again. Tell them to take all
the money I've got, but I won't
play." And yet Mr. Paderewski not
only gave his services in Chicago free
of charge, as his contribution to a
great national enterprise, but for this
purpose delayed his departure for
Europe a week when he was fagged
out and in a hurry to get home.
The St. Albans Messenger thinks
Vermont has lost a fine opportunity
to advertise herself at the World's
Fair, and believes that the example
of New Hampshire a state which is
reputed to make ten millions a year
out of her summer visitors might
profitably have been followed. The
interior of the New Hampshire build
ing at the fair has been made into a
veritable advertising bower, so to
speak setting forth in a convincing
manner the many delightful spots
among the granite hills. It looks
very much as though our legislature
dulled in not taking better care of
Vermont's interests at Chicago.
An elder in Talmage's Tabernacle
at New York city took charge of a
voung people's meeting the other
night and created quite a sensation
by announcing his belief that the
world was coming to an end within
the next decade. There were several
at the meeting who did not agree
with him and all we can do is to
wait.
A newsboy at New London, Conn.,
recently found on the depot platform
in that city a chamois skin bag con
taining a set of diamond earings.
He held them until they were adver
tised for by a New York woman who
offered .a reward of $2000 for their
return. The lucky lad is ten years
old and his people are in poor cir
cumstances. Pennoyer is a living proof of the
fact that fools are sometimes elected
governors of states. The Oregon
voters will show their repentance
when election comes around.
Poultncy Journal, dem.
Yes, we think so ; and about after
the same fashion as the Kansas
voters expressed their opinion of
certain things not long ago.
The Landmark is doing a good
work when it urges upon the jieople
ol White River (unction the organ
ization of a lire (list riet. The Junc
tion is too important a locality
to allow itscll to drift at the mercy

from that soil of disaster is no
.guarantee for the future.

Clianibei lin fust, (i. A. K., have
passed the following resolutions as
touching the death oftieore II. Martin:
'in:ni:.s, Onee more the roll eall is
heard and our dear comrade has answered
ves,and lias lieen mastered in where there
is no mustering out; once more a nohlc
patriot who took his life in his hand
and bade adieu to dear friends, consider
ing country mote dear than all, and en
dured the long march and sickness that
we might enjoy peace and prosperity;
therefore
Kesolvetl, That all honor is due to
the dead hero. And may his name
and memory lie perpetuated, not only
carved by the hand and chisel of the en
graver, but engraved on the hearts of
Jill true lovers of country, that shall last
when marble shall crumble into dust,
for time shall not blot out his noble
deeds of valour, for they are recorded in
heaven ;
Kesulveil, That we tender to the fam
ily of our dead comrade our sympathy.
While we grieve lor those who have
gone lieforc us, let not our sorrow be
without hope, The strong faith in im
mortality and the hope of n blessed re
union enable us better to bear alllietion.
So vc will not fciir nt hiii coining,
Although we must meet him nUmc; .
He will look in our evesno gently,
And take our himii In liis own.

OUR BOSTON LETTER.
Out for h Wtilk-Tho Ucece llutton Hole
Prospects F.lcatria Inventions la the
Store Windows New Fushtona.
fFrom our Special Correspondent.
IJoston, June 1. Let us take a
walk. Where? Well, we will first go
to the office of the Recce Button Hole
Machine Co., then
Straight down the crooked itreets
And all around the square.
"Good morning. What can you
tell us today about the Recce
patents?"
"Everythingisall right, "replied Mr.
Shay, the treasurer of the company.
"The next dividend of thelnternation
al is already assured, and we cannot
but be pleased at the advanced price
of the stock and with the business
outlook, as reported by our agents."
"When docs the law case come off
for the American Reece?"
"Probably in October, and will be
tried in Boston at the court of
appeals. About two weeks ago,"
continued Mr. Shay, "we obtained
another patent that will be of great
value to us, and we have now so
many patents that if we lose this
case it will have no effect upon the
earnings of the company. Still, this
is one of four or five cases that are
like friends that will be always with
us, because we do not like to be
weak in protection on a single point.
But our business is now larger than
ever before, though the price of the
stock may go lower, and probably
will should we lose our case. We
are straining every nerve, though, to
meet the trial successfully."
As St. Johnsbury is wide awake
over patents, let me speak of the
award of $10,000 just offered fo. a
new bicycle that shall be run by
electricity. A Boston firm promises
to give this sum, also to buy at
good price any improvement on
existing machines. There has re
cently been discovered a new metal
of great interest to electricians.
Heretofore the conductive percentage
for the electric current has been only
about 45. Bv this new metal the
percentage is fully raised to 98,
and also this is cheaper to produce
than any metal known. Edison has
been in Boston the past week,
and the secret probably will be a
seed for the harvest of the future in
many fields.
Who could take a walk at this
time of year without looking into
the store windows? Here are scar
let and white kid low shoes; the
scarlet kid used next to the ground
where it might get soiled by the dust
of the street, and white above.
Light blue boots also wait to match
some summercostume,and kid gloves
are in all shades of every color for a
like harmony with any lady's dress
trimmings. During a short distance
of not more than five rods I have
passed three or four young ladies
with their hair combed in crimped
waves down the sides of their, faces,
even half over their ears, like the
style of our grandmothers. What
docs this mean ?
I can't begin to tell how pretty
are the new shoulder capes made of
cream colored lace. This material
seems to be used on every kind of
cloth. Silk, cotton, wool and velvet,
all ask for lace with the OliverTwist
appetite of using all they can get
hold of. For a cape, taketwo yards,
about twelve or fifteen inches wide,
gather this to hang down over the
shoulders. Then placearound the neck
a stand-up gathered ruhT.? of material
about three inches wide. A strm of
plaited satin ribbon V shape in front
or a band of silver orgohl passemen
try trimming two inches wide con
nects these two rallies and finishes a
garment that need not cost over two
dollars, ami be a beauty. What is
prettier than the beautiful laces of
which the stores arc full.

THE BLIND BARD.
Will Cnrleton Admires Her Writings,
Shut Out for Twenty Years From Na
ture's Jleauties.
For Tears a Helpless Wreck. Now She
Is Well.
Had to he Carried About in Stronger
A rms.
She Writes of Her Miraculous Restora
tion. For nearly 20 years Ida Glenwood,
"the blind bard of Michigan," to use her
own language, lias been shut out from
"all the bright beauties with which
Nature gladdens the soul and invigorates
the mind."
Of her last fascinating story, which
was instantly popular with young and
old, Will Carleton says: "I have
admired it much and can only wonder
that one deprived of sight could paint
such vivid pictures."
The Independent calls it "intensely in
teresting from first to last."
Ida Glenwood's real name is, as every
every one knows, Mrs. C. M. R. Gordon.
The story of the last few years of her life
is almost miraculous.
"For several years," she writes, "I
have been for the greater part of the
time a helpless wreck, caused by nervous
prostration and dyspepsia of the
stomach and bowels."
She owes her health today, as do thou
sands of others, to the glorious remedy
first prescribed by Dartmouth's great
professor, Dr. Phelps.
"I was so low at the time of com
mencing its use," she continues, "that I
was able to walk but a few steps, hav
ing to be carried about in stronger
arms like a child. My friends had no
hope of my recovering so as to be ahout
again. But two bottles of Paine's
celery compound did the work of placing
me on mv feet again. I have been better
for the last year than for many previous
years.
"I have a wish that every one in a like
condition would try Paine's celery com
pound. I cannot fail to preach its
merits, as it has not failed one of the
hundreds who have tried it with whom
I am personally acquainted. If you wish
to use my name in recommendation of
the priceless compound you are at
liberty to do so. I have been glad to
speak of its merits through the "Open
Window," the organ of the "shut in"
band, believing that a large number
could be reached with its benefits.
"I have divided part of my celery com
pound with my aged husband who was
run down and feeble, three bottles re
lieving him to such a degree that he has
been active and busy ever since. This
spring I have taken one bottle of the
compound and it has apparently driven
back another attack of my old trouble.
"My wishes to the afflicted are that
they "may be persuaded to use Paine's
celery compound, which will not fail
in giving strength and vitality when
these necessities fail them."
