WHY BOX HER UPp

1t is suggested that instead of pack
ing the goddess of liberty i'll MOnu-
ment square up in a canvas bag and
then boxing the whole thing ont of
sight this winter, she be enclosed
in glass house where she can be seen i.
This may not be practical but anyhow
it would spare us the indignity of hav-
ing some Bob Burdette come along
next January with the declaration that
the weather is SO cold in St. Johnsbury
that the people have to box up their
marble monuments to keep them from
freezing.

The Passumpsic railroad company
have put water into their new station
at this place and the old depot build
ing, from their supply which comes
from up the Moose river about mile
away. The new tank, however, is not
an unqualified success. There is so
little pressure that there is no water in
the second story of the station and so
little below that the closets have to be
closed a part of the time. 1t takes 10
or ) minutes to fill a locomotive boiler
and the whole thing is rather of dis
appointment.

STATE sUNDAY-sCHooL MEETING

STATE SUNDAY SCHOOL MEETING.
The annual meeting of the State
Sunday school association was held at
Burlington last week. Among the pa
pers read was one by Col. Franklin
Fairbanks on '''The business mans re-
lation to the Sunday school" The
Free Press gives the following resume
of the paper
My theme supposcs that the Chris
tiau business man has IL certain rela-
ton to the Sunday school. First, the
relation of the business man to the
Sunday school is shown in the fact that
he needs an active Christian life, such
us the Sunday school affords. 1t also
provides the best and most helpful
recreation from business cares. In the
second place, the business mans rela-
ton to the Sunday school is shown III
the benefit he brings to the school. He
brings with him the business mans eX
perience, tact and methods of success.
In the third place, business habits and
Bible study are naturally helpful to
one another. The man who is familiar
with Bible truths and maXims will find
them of value in business life. The re-
latiOn of the business man to the Sun
day school is shown again in the pow
er of example. The Christian business
man yields IA strong influence in shap
ing the character and habits of his pu-
pills. Young men need leader; and
he who can influence and lead the
young in the path of true wisdom is
serving Christ.

the president, ''of these continuous requests
to remove somebody" ''Well," said the
senator, 81 do not want you to think
alone am interested. 1 make the request
because of a pressure from the people"
''You can leave the papers," said the presi-
dent, land will do the best / can" The
papers were left. The conversation took
place in the morning. About noon Senator
Pugh joined Senator Vest for a
carriage drive. AS they reached the sub
urbs of this beautiful city Vest said: ''Pugh
what do you think of the president?" ''He
is the most remarkable blanked fool,' said
Pugh, 81 ever met" The ride continued
for some miles and it was early evening
when the two senators again reached the
city. A street gamin was selling an
evening newspaper and Pugh bought one.
He eagerly scanned the list of appoint
ments, and lo the first three names on it
were the names of the very men he had in
the morning recommended to the presi-
dent. With much eXultation, he told Vest
of his luck. ''What do you think of the
president now," said Vest dryly. 81
think he is the grandest Democrat since
the days of Jefferson" said Pugh as he
broke away for the neighboring telegraph

In the dark as to what these
appointments mean. There are Demo
Gratis who say Mr.. Burt's appoint
ment is far beyond the carrying out of an
agreement with Independent Republicans.
The. independent Republicans are very well
content with the list of appointments.
Ihey say that the president has divided up
the offices within his jurisdiction in an in
offensive and impartial way. Many men
say the appointments will jeopardize the
result of the fall elections.
