A BUSINESS MEMS ASSOCIATION
Whysshould not our business men or
ganize what might be termed a
Dealers and Manufacturers Associa-
ton" There is plenty of work for
such an organization, and by a con
cert of action, through it great good
might be accomplished and the inter
ests of the town and village greatly
promoted. 70 illustrates: Since the
HERALD has been pa blished in Island
Pond, capitalists have Deen here on
more than one occasion looking over
the ground with Il view to establishing
some enterprise or manufacturing in
dustry. There was no man or orgaui-
cation empowered to give them other
encouragement than was offered by
the general appearance Of life and
thrift of the town. Again, some time
ago there was considerable talk Of a
pulp mill Icing established here, also
boot and shoe manutactory. Parties
interested asked for no assistance, be
leyond that such establishments should
receive encouragement to the extent OF
exemption Cf taxes for u term Of years
}Such au exemption, together with the
efforts Of the association suggested
might Yet induce capitalists to locate
in our village. As we are now situated
no one has any authority to offer any
encouragement beyond his own indi
vidual patronage and good will and
every man is generally too busy with
! his own affairs to take IL stranger by
the arm, 50 with him, introduce him
ana work upa sentiment in behalf o
a new enterprise. A business associa
ton working in conjunction with the
town authorities might accomplish
much. TO its proper committees o.
officers the new conner might be direct
ed, and in two hours's time he nigh
know whether or rot he aud his bust
ness would be welcomed, and wha
encouragement, exemptions or other
wise, II any, would be accorded him
Think this matter over business men
not only of Island Fond, but every
other town in the county, and let III
put ourselves in a way to offer induce
ments 10 any and every business IN

JORDAN. In Washington, D. c., May g of
typhoid fever, Hugo, son OF Mr.. an / Mrs.
Chester -. Jordan, OF Lancaster, n. H.,
aged two years.
Owing to our absence we did not
learn of the death of Mr.. Jordan's son
in season for any notice to be made of
it in our last issue. And now keenly
touched with sympathy for those in
trouble we hardly know what to say
Mr.. Richardson, with whom the little
boy and his mother stopped while in
Florida, says he was very Interesting
child, and calls tenderly to mind some
childish little arts and incidents,
which, coming from the nature Of
childhood, tenderly play around the
heart and linger in the memory of
strong men longer than those things
which the world would call more I'M
portant; and like the finest and most
delicate tones of music weave them
selves into the coarser fabric Of our
being When the strong man, one Of
the prominent characteristics OF whose
strength is paternul affection, and
when the mother, under most favor
able circumstances, each blend into
their very being an object of affection,
the connecting links are OF IL different
nature, but are equally strong; and
when snapped the worshipers are left
almost poWerle5s, aad are inclined to
yield to the wounds and fiutter to the
ground. They almost arraign the wis.
dom and goodness of Providence. In
their weakness they can see no reason
ia it all. They struggle in vain to find
any compensation for the loss. But
when reason asserts her sway they be
gin to reconcile and harmonize their
different circumstances. They chide
themselves for having almost said,
"Why WAS this blessing sent to tor
lnent us z" They begin to see that
! they have almost made the pleasant
little visit UNIV elcome, and to realize
that there is much of subtle mystery
! in The tender influences which those
fleet tiny beings exert in their flying
visits to earth. AT last, with softened
and subduod but never-dying grief
they become reconciled in gratitude
for the delicate and tender memories
| left behind.

SWEEP sAEEP EsE THINE.

Sweet sleep lie thine, oh! truest heart that
beat,
In gentle breast, since earth itself was youne.
Sweet sleep be thine, and may thy dreams be
sweet,
If death bring dreams, as hath been said and
sung,
Sweet sleep, sweet dreams OF happier days to
be,
Heart unto heart, through all eternity.
Low i the mold, the star-eyed blossoms spring,
And sweet bird voices tell that spring is here,
The mockne-birds from orange bowers sing,
And earth is bright with The awakened year.
But thou, sweet one, are buried in the earth,
fairer now'r than spring ere gaveth BIRTH.
But deaths still sleep at length is broken
through,
We know not how or where, but only this,
III other worlds the soul is horn anew
Freofrom The woes God gveth it ia this
Ho lends this hope TO cheer each saddored
breast,
Ana Faith, tie Ararat, On which ife's lark
may rest.

One occasionally hears a self-con-

contempt for the local paper. Its
reading matter lie characterizes as

lie compares it with the great city

paper gives the news OF the world.

STATE NEWS.

The town Of Somerset, which lies on
the back borders of Windhain county,
and teens with II population OF 81
souls, II of whom are voters, is trying
TO make trouble for the spunl;y new
postmistress, Mrs. Sutton, who has
planted the post Office in IL box by the
kitchen stove and insists on locking
the house and going visiting just when
she pleases--in short, has made proc
lamation that the post Office will be
open only on two days of the, week.
Post Oliiee Inspector l.. b. hanson has
just been over there, according to the
Brattieboro Phoenix, to persuade the
woman that nothing but 10 hours a
day would do for the service, but she
simply told him that two days in the
week was enough and that she didn't
propose to tie herself up to that post
office, or stay at home if she wanted to

society in Somerset, the rich as we'll as
