NY OF goous,i liiS neighbor must buy

thus q demand Is male on the iobber fof

must demand Of the manufacturer this
cheap product, and he must comply; II
at all, BY selling him q mixed article, and
he must do the mixing.
1t = possible, oil course, that the lob.
hers do more OF less Of this work, but Ger.
tainly not all Of It. Many articles, sncl,
as bt.carbonate Of soda, baking powder,
cream Of tartar, pepper, mustard, and
scores Of others are prepared by such
processes, and there can DO no way Of
having two or more qualities but BY hay.
Ing ono. or more ofthem mixed with inic.
rlor substances. Therefore, when You
have more than one price given for the
same article, Il Is safe to conclude that the
one Of less cost Is mixed with some inie.
rior substance; perhaps the material en-.
ployed is harmless, but possibly injur.
ious to the health OF the consIm.
er. 1.-THE former, one only gets a. much
OF the material sought as you would have
obtained Tor the same money invested in
the unadulleratel article. II tho latter,
you not only get less material, but quan,
tity Of harmful substance as we'll.
The cause OF so much adulteration in
our food Is that consumers seek clleapness
instead Of purity. The article OF conlec.
tioncry represents very wellall adulterated
substances. One can buy mixed candles
Of certain class for 20 cent per pound
and all prices above to 90 or 75 cents. The
consumer looks upon all as candy, and
does not stop to ask, why Is the difference
In price, even when all are made and sold
by the same person. II each variety con,
tanned nothing but pure sugar 1t ought to
be all oil nearly the same price, Tor oil
must cost the same iorlahor anlAnaterials
aud nearly the same for tlayoriRg. Evi
IDENTIFY there Is some cause for this differ
ence In price. When we have examined
the matter moro fully II Is found that the
resaon Is that when you buy a pound O
20 cent candy you get one.half pound O.
sugar and the other half plaster OF Paris
sometimes called terra albra. On the olhel
hand, the hrst.class candies arc ncarl,

THE ENTERTAINMENT. This came off at the Town Room, last Tuesday evening, and we had full house. Pizarro was repeated, and was said to be very well performed, but as l was in it, can't say much. At the close we iiad Who's who;" or ''All in fog" The audience was very much interested in the per iormance of this comedy. Edwin A. White took the part of MT. Brambleton, Miss Nina White the part of Sicily; Edw. Smith was the head man servant, Miss Clara Gray was Ma tilda Jane and Frederick Gray was the fash ionable young bachelor; but the man of the house and the other four got all mixed up, and one young man was taken for the other, and the daughter was taken for the servant, and the servant for the daughter, and at last they owned that they had all been in fog. Young Smith is great actor The young people feel under great obligations to MT. Hotchkiss of Thomaston and Miss Amy Gay- lord for the fine music they gave us.

The Biennial Amendment.

Next Mondays election decides the fate of the biennial amendment The objection to It is serious and the opposition certainly not without force. The fact that it iengthens the term of the present legislature is unmportant. Even if we are to ielieve that the general as sembly was influenced by so contemptible a reason, the people cannot afford to defeat ii good measure from an equally .contenptibic spirit of revenge. Nor is the saving of expense likely to be enough to affect the question seriously.
 The real difficulty is to strike any safe bal ance between the advantages and disadvan- tages of frequent sessions. The present ar engagement gives more frequent opportunities for initiating reforms and remedying evils; 1t also increases the amount of crude, needless, hurtful legislation We have been inclined to think that this balance, properly struck, would be found in favor of biennial sessions
 Two other considerations make rather strongly the other way: the increased chance of bribery Tn elections, from the enhanced value attaching to the longer legislative term; and the better chance that would be offered large corporations for blocking reform legisla- tion. In these respects, however, the worst has been done already. The Senate is now biennial; and it is in the senatorial elections that bribery and influence of voters are most practiced, and in that body that the great cor porations find it easiest to block reform.
 Dr. Bacon condemns the whole thing as a weak attempt to patch up an old constitution when what we need is a new one. There would be more force in the objection if any strenuous effort was likely to be made for the calling of constitutional convention.
