AM11KI. E. H. Allis Finds That His House Was "Robbed a Week Ago. E. H. Allis, who lives on Franklin street, found last Tuesday when looking around for his gloves and mittens that his house had been 'entered sometime since the previous Sunday, and several articles of clothing had been taken. It was found that nn almost new overcoat, a new sweater, a suit of clothes, gloves, mittens, silk neck handkerchief, $15 in money, lesides about $2!) worth in mileages, had been taken. These articles were scattered in dilfcrent parts of the house, and $3 of the money was in the purse of Madam Allis in her room. No break was found, so it is supposed that the parties entered the house through the door, which sometime had been left unlocked, or else when the family were all out. Mr. Allis attended the Brother hood meeting on Monday night, and the family retired early, leaving the side door unfastened, to await his home com ing. 1 he house had also been alone on Sunday, but it is not known when the burglary took place. The estimated loss is about !?7o, and there is no clue to the guilty pa tries.

WATERBURY Home Econo.nics, Institute Closed Satur day Evening. , - In spite of the storm a good number were present when the institute opened Saturday morning and listened atten tively to the demonstration by Miss Marshall, "How to Make a Waist." In ihe afternoon Professor Terrill again spoke most intelligently of the "Health ful Body." All day the muffins and cakes had been arriving and at this point it was felt best that the judg ing of the irticlcs should be done. The judges were the Misses Terrill and Mar shall of the university, Miss Amy Wheel er, teacher of domestic science in the Essex Junction schools, Mrs. Gilbert, president of the Hypatia club, and Mrs. Fife, president of the Pierian club. In awarding the prizes. Miss Terrill said they had had the hardest work she had ever known to make the decisions. Sel dom had so many nice goods been brought and she felt very sure of the future success of Waterbnry girls as home-makers. The prizes were as fol lows: First cake, Miss Teresa Hill; sec ond, Miss Annis Ruig; third, Miss Olive Garrow;' honorable mention. Miss Kath erine Casey, Miss Norma Perkins; muf fins, first, Miss Freda Tarbell; second, Miss Olive Garrow; third, Miss Gem Downey. Following the prizes, samples of the cakes were passed about. In the "Healthful Home," Miss Terrill urged those present to educate the young to value life. Two of our great enemies are dampness and bad air. lxok well to your cellars. The cellar is the most important room in the bouse. Use uuslacked bine around them ind white wash the walls at least once a year. The three graces of the cellar are dry ness, light and cleanliness. She urged plainer hinusmnirs. smooth walls, no carpets and hoped the time would come that when she asked for a feather dust er in the piace, one could not be found. One of the strong points of Miss Ter- nlls institute work is its practicabil ity. The closing evening was a very tempestuous one outside but held much of encouragement inside for the Ver mont agriculturalist and the "Woman on the Farm." Miss Gilltert introduced Miss Terrill, whose welcome by our peo ple had grown very hearty. She spoke in an informal way of the fostering of home life, the spirit of co-operation between the men and women. There is no line of work in which men ex pect to become proficient but what they expert toTeceive special training. Why not special training for women in that greatest of all professions home-making? This is one thing in which the men are wdling to admit that women are more successful than men. Bring to rural workers intellectual help. Bring the uplift to the Vermont farm girl. Men study the feeds liest suited for the animaR Why not study the liest feeds for the human body? The family life in the .ountrv is the most conducive to broaden the young people to assume responsibility. President Campbell of the Board of Trade introduced Profes sor Jenks of the agricultural college. He had said but a few words when all realized that in him the state had a ive wire" pulling for her agricultural interests. He speaks in a convincing manner and in easily-remembered sen tences. He said the opinion of people regarding farmers is very different than formerly. Farmers are no longer hay seeds" and the farmer boy will take care of himself wherever you put him. hducation is what helps a man live, we learn by building on our own ex perience. ermont is principally an ag ricultural state and her education should be along that line. Agriculture should be taught in the schools but not until it can be properly taught. Everyone wants to be popular make farming pop ular. Create in the community a de sire for the thing wanted. A good, well-organized singing school will start civic improvement. Make the farm pay, then make it attractive sd that the boys and girls will want to stay. To make a success a man must make a business of farming; must be a stu dent of all scientific subjects. The fann er must think. He spoke somewhat of the boys' and girls' clubs and closed with a nice little toast to domestic sci ence. And thus the first borne economics institute in the state closed, over which Waterbnry is so enthusiastic that it is hoped it will not lie long before an other one, or a continuance of this one be possible here. ;:t::n::n:;u;:?:;;:t:;::nn;:a:;nt:a:u:;;:n:n:t::;;::::::t:n:tn::::;;::::; A I Our tuuiiutiiittiiiiiitttttitttttttti 11 HI Scil.Ci nnuai uearance Now in Progress Entire Stock Will be Offered at Reduced Prices We are overstocked with fall and winter goqds, therefore at this sale, every article in this store is marked at reduced prices.

While it is too early to begin a cam paign for the United States stnatorship in preparation for an election to be held not earlier than next November, the in jection of the name of the Hon. Charles A. Prouty into the situation and the dis cussion arising therefrom preceding the announcement that he will not lie a can didate has served a very excellent pur pose in demonstrating that the people more than ever before want to know whether candidates for public office pro pose to keep thoroughly abreast of the best political thought of the time and stand for the new Republicanism. The points praised in Mr. Prouty are pretty certain to commend themselves in others, and candidates will do well to let the people know clearly where they propose to stand on the leading issues of the day. especially with reference to the powerful interests trying to control Congress. These interests are seeking, for example, to prevent the development of the denatured alcohol industry as a menace to the Standard Oil company's hold upon the market for gasolene, kero sene and other auto fuels demanded by an ever and rapidly enlarging public, and to hamper the parcels post which interferes with the express companies, and so on. This is an age in which perhaps more than ever before our pub lic servants must stand for something, and especially for the interest of the people as opposed to special privilege Burlington Free Piess.

Montpelier s start in the first halt was due largely to the star playing of Ira Gross and "J inn" Laird, who got a score of 28 points while Stowe made only one basket. Gross is Montpelier's best find in years. The second half was little more than a practice game for the local team, and they scored 2," bas kets, for a total of 50.

C, Jan. 12. Reports from some of the food specialists of the department of agriculture indicate that in certain sections there is a serious waste of a, valuable food, due to the fact that many housewives do not ap preciate the value of suet in cooking and do not know how to use it. As a result many throw good food suet into the garbage pail, or else in rare cases use it with meat trimmings for soap making. Many arc unaware that suet possesses the same food value as lard, and if properly tried out is a satisfac tory substitute for frying purposes, for shortening, and in making savory fats. Apparently some of the cook books have misled the American housewife by stat ing that suet is good only for soap-mak-inc. In Kurope, however, this food is carefully kept and rendered, and in Ger many, suet and laru are used inter changeably for frying and shortening. Suet is the hard fat aliout me Kid neys and loins in tcer nnd mutton wnicn corresponds to the fat of hojrs from which leaf lard is made. Those who do not know how to render it object to the hardness of suet and to its special flavor. Fresh suet, however, can lie so rendered as to make a soft, usable fat, practically ree from any distinctive fla vor or odor. The following is the simplest method for trying out suet: "Remove the skin and lean parts from beef fats. !ind cut it into small pieces. i . . . j :a ... : , I.

For those who want a mixture of suet and leaf lard the following recipe will lie found useful: "Take two parts of suet and one of leaf lard, finely ground, and mix to- cether.

One widely discussed political question in Vermont has lwen set nt rest by the withdrawal of Hon. Charles A. Prouty of Newport and Washington, from the eanvnss for I'nited States senator in Vermont. We print Mr. Prouty's let ter in this issue of 1 lie Jlaily isews. There is no doubt that hundreds of the citizens of Vermont were desirous that Mr. Prouty should enter the can vass. In the minds of many observers there would be no doubt as to his elec tion. Mr. Prouty has been a large figure in politics for many years; and he has had a conspicuous hold on the people of Vermont. In the oast decade Mr. Prouty has be- come a large national ngure. jus worn. in the interstate commerce commission has brought him into a better under standing of the whole system of federal relations. It is not strange therefore that he became such a commanding fig ure as to lie considered the best man in the nation to be selected for the enor mous task of placing a valuation upon the railroad system of the country. There is no doubt some rejoicing at the withdrawal of Mr. Prouty. The senatorial canvass will lie exceedingly mixed from now on to the time of elec tion. Senator Dillingham is a candidate to succeed himself. There are some crit icisms of bis attitude on some questions in Congress in which he had a leading part. There are also some who have a fling now and then at some .supposed lack of activity in the Senate, The governor of the) commonwealth is also a candidate, as The News hears and understands. It is "told also that he has already been seeking for votes. Mr. Fletcher n elected by the legislature and not by the people. That would in dicate a hard and doubtful fight against Dillingham if indeed there may be oth ers trying to break into the fight. Bur lington .New. tissues, and when allowed to cool will form a cake on the surface of the liquid, which may lie easily removed." This fat has a good odor, color and texture, and is softer than the suet alone. It is useful for frying and the shortening of foods with . high . flavors and may be used with fair results in shortening such things as baking powder biscuits. It is useful for cooking vege tables, either alone or' with the addition of a little butter. Do Not Let Fat Burn in Cookinir. The unpopularity of fried food in many families is due entirely to the fact that the fat has been burned in cooking. Fat when heated to too high a tempera ture splits up and may form substances which have an irritating effect on the throat and may cause digestive disturb ances. Fat in itself is a very valuable food and if it is not scorched should prove a lietlthful rather than an objec tionable article of diet. A slightly burned taste and similar objectionable flavors can often lie removed from fat by puttinir into it thick slices of raw potato and heating it. gradually. When the fat ceases to bubble and the potatoes are brown, the fat should be strained off through a cloth placed in a wire strainer. "DETECTIVES" ARRESTED. New Yorkers Said to Have Bought Moyer Affidavits. New York. Jan. 12. Two private de tectives, William Martin and Charles Smith, were arrested here Saturday in "onnection with matters developing from the recent deportation of Charles H.
