Female Complaint,

monthly period; some girls are in great peril at
the commencement of menstruation, while older
ones dread its decline at the "turn OF lfe." Some
times The menstrual flow is too much, too lit

The STRAsB0URG CATHEDRAL Clock AND
IIBRARY.-One of the most lamentable re-
suits of the siege of Strasbourg, leaving out
of view the loss of human life, is the injury
which the bOmbardment has inflicted upon
the noble cathedral and its wonderful astro-
nomical clock The vast cathedral, which,
perhaps, more than any other one thing, has
made the name of Strasbourg celebrated, is
one of the finest Gothic buildings in Europe
Ii was founded A. d. 504. The choir was
built by Charlemagne; probably about A.
ID. 500, although it was not completed
until l439 The material of which the
cathedral is built is brown stone very much
resembling our Connecticut Portland free
stone, SO extensively used in Fifth Avenue
Ii was obtained from quarry at Vase
bonnie, in the valley Of Couronne, a few miles
from Strasbourg. The architect of the ex-
listing edifce was Erwin Won Steinbach, of
Baden. One John Huells, of Cologne, was
the architect of the peerless tower. Its
spire is the loftiest in the world. Its height,
400 feet, surpasses st. Peters, and is about
equal to that of the Great Pyramid. The
greater part of the entiSe structure was de-
stroyed by lightning in 1907, and the res tor
ed edifice was begun in lois and completed
in I439 The cathedral is in every part rich
ly decorated with sculptures and the west
ern front, rising to height of $50 feet, is,
or was, particularly fine with its wealth of
statues. ornamental carvings and bas-reliefs
IL has a circular window As feet in dame
ter. The Prussian heavy artillery has made,
it is said, a ruin of part of the vast building.
The astronomical clock, the product of a
German clockmaker, in about the year 1850,
is marvel of ingenuity and mechanical
skill, and has no counterpart. It performs
not only the ordinary service of clock but
exhibits the days and the months, and the
wears the process of the seasons the signs
of the zodiac, and the names and movements
of the heavenly bodies. At each quarter
hour an angel comes out and strikes one
stroke on a bell at every hour another an
Gel comes and strikes twice and at u, me
ridian, figure of Christ appears, aecompa-
MED by the twelve apostles, all of whom
move around a central point and pass in. out
of sight, by another door, the stroke of
twelve being given, and cock flaps his
wings and crows. The clock is enormous in
size, like everything else connected with the
vast cathedral, and is invisible from the out
side street.-the spectator passing through
the nave of the cathedral 70 see it. 1t has
suffered from fire and violence before the

again call the attention of the people of
this important question. VIII you have the
road? 1t is in your power to have it imme-
diately, if you say SO. If $4,000 more can
be raised it ensures the completion of the
road in less than two years. The sum of
100000 is now subscribed, and S4OO, 900
we are informed will ensure it. With that
sum and the bonds of the road it can be
built, and that Immediately. VIII you let
this important movement fail for the trifling
sum above named?
The survey is progressing favorably, and
by raising the grade going east from fifty to
sixty-fve feet to the mile in places, and on
the east side going down in the same proper
ton, at least $3.50, 600 can be saved in the
construction of the road, which will reduce
the whole expense to less than 81 ,00O, 900
for the SO miles.
The 100000 will do the grading and
masonry, and leave nothing but the super
structure. The opening of this road will
give life and activity to all places on the line
of the road. If built, there will be con-
nection of the road at Marshfeld with the
St. Johnsbury road, and branch will also
be built from Marshield by Cabot to Hard
wick, thus connecting Montpelier with all
places north.
Will you let this opportunity pass by and
refuse to build the road? Will rich men in
Montpelier stand back and prefer to have
their money invested in Government bonds,
and live and grow rich without giving a
dollar to build up and add to the beauty,
business and wealth of the town? Why
will not some of our rich men take as pat
tern Mr. Fairbanks Of st. Johnsbury? We
see St. Johnsbury increasing in business and
beauty by his influence and aid. You see
his Library building rising in its beauty to
be filed by thousands of valuable and inter-
esting books for the free use Of the town.
You see the multitudes to which he gives

The STATE FAIR opened at Burlington yes
terday, (Tuesday), and we learn that all
indications point to one of the most inter
esting and successful fairs ever holden by
the Vermont Agricultural Society Tuesday
was mainly devoted to putting articles and
animals in position, and of course some lit
tie confusion was apparent during the day.
The number of entries made on the Score
tary's books was quite large, and we think
the large crowd of visitors to the Fair ground
to-day will find much to interest and please
them. Railroad trains passing this place
this morning were filled to overlooking with
passengers for Burlington, and as the wealth
er is fine, doubtless the State Fair will be
amply patronized to-day and tomorrow.

The Republicans of the Territory of Wyo-
ming have achieved splendid victory in the
election of William L. Jones as Delegate to
Congress by about 200 majority over Wanless,
Democrat. The first election in this territory
took place in 1869, when S. +. Nuckolls,
DEM, was elected Delegate by 1856 MAORI
ty in an aggregate poll of $500 votes. We
now have returns from the whole territory,
with the exception OF two small precincts,
showing a majority for Jones of 106, which
the missing precincts will probably increase
to Goa Republican gain of about Zoo.
The aggregate vote of Cheyenne, the capital
of the territory, was 776-l7l of the voters
being women. We regret to notice that the
Republican candidates for County Clerk and
Superintendent of Public Schools for Laramie
County-Mrs. Phoebe Pickett and Mrs NJ III.
Arnold--were beaten by their ungallant
Democratic opponents.

ant point, from st. Johnsbury to Swanton,
people at work on that line of road. Why
is it? Are they richer, or have they more
public spirit than we have? They are not
as rich. The grand list on their line of road
is not near as large as ours. Still they have
raised more money to the mile than we have
as yet. Why is this 1t is because every
town on the line has bonded itself eight
times its grand list, and almost every farmer
has also subscribed from one to ten shares,
on the line of the road.

CLERK OF THE HousE.-Appearances now
indicate there will be quite an active con-
test for the Clerkship of the House at its
coming session. The contestants are ID. NJ .
Camp, Esq, of Newport, the Clerk elect of
last year, and Henry n. Newell, Esq, of
Shelburne, the first Assistant Clerk of last
year. We regret much that any such con-
test should arise Both the gontlelIan
named are competent for the place, and each
will doubtless be Clerk, if one can wait for
the other.
Mr. Camp was elected last year, and served
the House most faithfully and aceeptably till
severe sickness, contracted here in the dis
charge of his duties, compelled him to give
up work. Mr.. Newell, aided by Mr. Peck,
then performed the chief duties of the place
creditably to himself and aeceptably to the
House, and received full satisfaction therefor
But by all precedent and fair usage Mr. Camp
is entitled to a reelection. Besides being
amply competent for the position he has
Justice and right on his side, and Vermont
Legislature is quite certain to see that no
injustice is done one of its worthy and COM
petent servants. We should be pleased to
see Mr.. Newell clerk but should regret to
see wrong inflicted upon Mr.. Camp for
that purpose.
