Unlike the residents of the "New Ver
mont," the earth thirsts and cannot quench
that thirst. It is extremely unfortunate
that the wet spell for the one cannot be
utilized for the other.
The division of New Hampshire Tues
day on the question of license or no license
was in the main the cities and large towns
against the rural communities, which
was natural and no doubt as it should be.
Most of the nearby New Hampshire
towns along the Connecticut river went
wet at Tuesday's special election, so the
Rutland Herald need not be alarmed
about St. Johnsbury's source of supply.

There was not the least bit of fear that
you wouldn't get the stuff.
The proposal of placing a rugged boul
der from the Vermont hills over the g"ave
of the late Dr. James Conland of Brattle
boro Is well suggested, and it is also a hap
py idea that the opportunity is offered to
everyone to assist in paying a slight trib
ute to the sterling character of this man.
If the scheme for a public hospital for
Barre is put under way it will be well to
follow the example of several other cities
and towns of the state and have a hospital
Sunday. That means that the Sunday
services at all the churches of the city will
be given over to the hospital and all con
tributions of the day will be for the bene
fit of that public institution. The churches
of the cities where the plan has been tried
have cooperated iu the movement and the
results have been quite satisfactory.
' A resourceful woman in Beldens, a little
town in Addison county, has settled the
tramp question as far as her house is con
cerned. A biir. burly knight of the road
called at her house recently and demand
ed food. Being refused the man showed
fight, whereupon the Beldens woman
whipped out a 42 calibre revolver from the J
folds of her dress. The last seen of the
tramp he was making hurried tracks to
cover his cowardly body. .And it Is ten to
one that the gun wasn't loaded either.

The skies have rau;;lit a deeper blue,
Thu titrds a sweeter ung;
The viillows wreathe themselves anew
In tender prifns ajuni?
The windinir brooks. The sheltered nooks
'Are bursting: all ablaze
With Btars untold of gleaming gold
In dandelion days.
No song more limpid or more sweet
Than yonder bird's; no sheen
Like that of grass beneath my feet
Than emeralds more cretn.
No softer breeze e'er stirred the trees
Than this, that gently sways
The budding beeeh beyond my reach
In dahdullon Cays.
The snnff re-echoes In the heart.
The breezes stir the blood:
Within the brain fresh fancies start
And wake a nobler mood.
Viewed through the clear, pure atmos
phere.
Life takes a loftier phase
And seems possessed of keener rest
In dandelion days.
A magic sppll rests on the year.
And time has stayed Its flisht.
For long lost sprirrjridea -reappear
In pageants of delight.
A child once more. I wonder o er
The meadow's starry maze.
And life forgets Its sharp regrets
In dandelion days.

During the past ten years the wealth of
the state of Maine has increased $100,000
000. The most of this Increase is due to
the building up of manufactories and the
utilization of the vast forests, while the
"summer colony" has added considerable
to that result. Maine is a favored state
in several respects. It has immense for
ests, some mineral resources, a sea eoast
and lastly, all the things that go to make
an attractive allurement for the sports
men. With such conditions the Increase
of the state's wealth was to be expected.

St State St rwt, - Moutpelier, Vt,
John J. Roberts, superintendent of Nel
son Bros, slate quarry at West Pawlet,
met a horrible death Tuesday. He was
unloading powder and had gone into the
powder house with a keg under each arm
when he stepped on a dynamite cap. It
exploded as did all the dynamite in the
building. The powder bouse and contents
were blown up. Mr. lloberts was carried
some distance, lie was badly mangled
and torn and his clothing was set on fire.
He lived some time after being taken home
and conversed with his family about the
accident. A son was badly burned while
pulling the burning elothes from his fath
er. '
State Auditor Horace F Graham is
waiting for some one to bring mandamus
proceedings against him in connection with
a bill allowed by the court of claims. Sev
eral claims have been allowed by that
court, but Mr. Graham is in doubt as to
his authority to give orders on the state
treasurer under the act of the last
legislature which created the court and so
far has not drawn any orders for their
payment. A question has arisen as to the
constitutionality of the law and Mr. Gra
ham proposes to pay no money under it
until the supreme court has passed judg
ment on it. It is likely that a test ease
will be made soon and the matter adjudi
cated. Top Notch.
"But," persisted the St. Louis wo
man who had the chopping habit, "the
firm declares In Its advertisement that
It only nsks a fair price for Its goods."
"Exactly," replied her husband, "by
which It means a "world's fair price."

Dear Sir: It's an old saying: thebest
advertisement Is a pleased customer. f;S$
It happens to us continually in this way :
A man buys Devoe for his house he has
painted it once in three years for a dog's
age,and thinks he knows what he wants
buys SO gallons and has 10 left. ZHZHZ
ile says right off that 20 Devoe is as
much as ,10 of anything else. Ile likes
that; it comes quick; it is a surprise; and
he tells of it. The best advertisement is a
pleased customer. KSJ
Three years roll round. There isn't a
sign that his house needs paint, he don't
paint it. Next year he don't paint it. This
comes slow; it Is a surprise; but he has
got used to it. Still the best advertise
ment is a pleased customer.
Yours truly,
F. W. Devoe & Co.,
