Apsopos of vaccination, says the Lon
don TruH, some members of II certain
noble English household were desired to
submit themselves to the ordeal OF re-
vaccination. The lymph was to be cx-
tractcd from the arm of the infant son
of the house. All to whom the operation
was considered nccdful underwent the
process quietly enough, until it came to
the cooks turn. This cook, who was q
brawny Scotch woman, stcadtastly and
positively refused on the ground that
"no English hluid should enter her
veins" After much expostulation and
delay she was vaccinated with lymph
taken straight from Scotch calf. Her
arm alone took among those revacci-
mated, and with much triumph she as.
serts the fact rs showing the unmis-
taxable superiority Of a "weo Scotch
bnosfir" over II noble English lord.

DIR. CARPENTER, the eminent physi-
ologist, has written long and interest
ing article for the London Times on the
subject of Vaccination and Small
Pox." The benefits Of vaccination are,
to his mind, indisputable. That they
have ever been called into question is
due to three causes first, tho entire ig-
norance Of the present generation, save
the few who have specially studied the
medical history Of the last century, to
the ravages of smallpox before the in
PRODUCTION of vaccination by Jenner at
the beginning Of the present second,
the exaggerated claim to complete pro.
lection, originally advanced by tho adj
vocates of vaccination; and, third, the
strangely illogical idea by which the
Observation-Disclosures OF the present time
arc possessed, that what is not complete
protection is no protection ut all. As TO
the first point, DIR. Carpenter remarks
that in the last century it was quite as
exceptional for any one to reach middle
age without having been the subject of
smallpox Us it is now to pass through
childhood without having the measles.
Communities that had long been ex-
empted from its attacks were fearfully
ravagedwhen it did appear among them.
More than one-fourth the entire popula.
ton of Ireland was carried off by small
pox in 1920, and M my tribes of Ameri-
oan Indians, as all readers OF history
know, were well-nigh extcrminated by
| the disease Oh its first introduction
among them. As to the early belief that
one vaccination was complete protec-
ton, that has been shattered and aban-
doned by the medical fraternity within
the memory of men now living. DR..
Carpenter relates his own experience in
this connection. He was vaccinated in
childhood, and supposed himself to be
safe from infection. Bnt after he began
to practice medicine he accidentally
vaccinated himself, and found to his sur
prise that it "took" vigorously. Ii he
had been exposed he might easily have
taken smallpox and died from the ef-
fects. Finally, there are undoubted
cases of smallpox occurring twice in the
Same person, and once after vaccina.
ton. But these exceptions prove moth.
ing. The experience Of mankind ID
overwhelming in favor of vaccination,
and it would be idle to deny that it has
in effect abolished the terrors Of the
dreaded disease.

late Mrs. Isaiah Carpenter, the mother
of Mrs. Judge Ross, was a sister. An
other thing is very remarkable, four
sons who grew up to manhood, Drs.

inent surgeons. One daughter, Susan,
married DR.. Blanchard, and now lives
in one of the western states. DR.. Bug
bee was known far and near, as he was

Good Farms.

We need not go far from our own
section to find good farms and farmers.
We need not go west or south to find
prosperous and contented families.
Now there is a region in proximity to
the Passumpsic river of this character
that is worthy of mention. Say, for in
stance, begin ut VIM. Higgins's in this
town and follow to w. S. Hastings's
place in Waterford, from there to Tobi-
as LISTERS, known as the Joseph A.
Gould place, Stephen j. Hastings, G..
W. Felch and n. Moreau. Then there
are those of G. r. Barker, Lawrence
and Winslow, f. A. Parks and Hiram
Russell-all good stock and dairy farms,
and most of them having first-rate su-
gar places. There are also those of B.
and \. X. Powers, and Mrs. A. Richard
son in Waterford. We speak especial
of all the above mentioned places, as
they are contained in a small radius of
territory-the owners devote their spe-
cial attention to agriculture and are not
above their business. We. take it that
this is the reason why all of them seem
to be so generally thrifty and success
full. Most of the above farmers are
more or less connected with our agri-
cultural fairs. and contribute in no
small degree to their success. There
are other sections near here particular
ly worthy of notice, which we hope to
speak of soon.
