constant expense to operate.

Jewels give only occasional pleasure to one in
dividual, and entail anxiety for their security.
So with most indulgences and pleasures.
But Furniture Furniture . requires but the
original investment. There is no upkeep.
It affords not joy to one, but many.
Its comfort is not occasional, but constant.
It yields daily dividends in the most desirable

Clinton F. Millar, who last fall re
signed as manager of the Tenney Serv
ice company of Barre and Montpelier,
has recently decided to affiliate himself
with the Young Brothers company of
Barre as sales manager, after a period
of several months' trial in this capacity.
I he toting Brothers company, in which
Mr. Millar, it is understood, has invest
ed money, is one of the most progTes
sive granite plant in tins city. In a
recent issue of the Monumental News
one of his' old college competitors in a
flag rush, who made his acquaintance
with Mr. Millar after watching him
wrestle with the vexing problems of
the Massachusetts Institute of Tech
nologv of Boston, say in part of Mr,
Millar: "As a mixer, as a diplomat and
a genuine good fellow of the right sort
he is all there. As a matter of educa
tion there are few who stand higher,
for at the age of 22, and thift was in
1S96, he graduated with honor from the
Massachusetts Institute of Tech
nology in Boston, a diploma which is
said to be one of the hardest -earned
educational documents in the world.
His modesty prevents his ever mention
ing any of these attainments even to
his closer friends, but the writer of this
article happened to know about it
nearly a quarter of a century ago."
Perhaps his Barre friends will be inter
ested to learn that Mr.. Millar has just
purchased a piece of property, or at
least has made negotiations, for the C.
I . Bugbee home on Washington street,
and it is quite probable the papers will
soon be passed giving Mr. Millar title
of the property. Of this 14 room house
Mr. Millar plans an up-to-date home,
though he will first make extensive
rlmnges and improvements before di
viding it into a two-tenenrent house.
This property has for some time been
in the hands of the Barre Savings Bank
and Trust company.
