Arbor-Day Proclamation.

The custom of designating an annual
Arbor-Day has already become honOreC
by time, and the welcome recognition
and observance of it by the citizens in
several of the commonwealth of our
Union. 1t has extended from year to
year and now prevails in many States,
and will, it is believed, embrace our
whole country in the near future. No
measure can be devised which will con-
tribute more to the value, attractiveness
and beauty of our Vermont towns, viii
lagos and homes, than the judicious i'm
provement of the economic adOrnments
of nature. which may be so readily util-
lied by all. The so general and earnest
response to the executive recommends
ton of last year by the people of the
State. demands that day be again des-
ignated for united progression in the
work then so systematically organized
and prosecuted throughout the towns and
villages.
Therefore, in obedience to the popular
will, and in the hope that the practice
may become general with Vermonters,
as it has with the people of other pro-
gressive States, L do hereby designate
and set apart Saturday, the 24th day of
April, instant. to be observed as Arbor-
Day in Vermont. And | recommend that
the people prepare for its observance by
an interchange of views, and by further
organization, discussion and distribution
of information on the subject, that the
labors of the day may be directed tow
ards intelligent and enduring results.
And invite all societies, associations,
army posts, schools and individuals to
devote the day TO the planting of trees,
shrubbery and the vine, for ornament,
comfort and use in the parks and COM
mons. as well as by the private home
around the public buildings and society
halls; on the school grounds, by the
church, around the cemetery, and along
the roadsides and the village streets.
Given under my hand and the State
seat at Hartford, this sixth day of
April, in the year of our Lord one

Mrs. Gray's bakery in the city of
New York, has suddenly sprung into
fame as the scene of boycott. Mrs.
Gray refused to yield to the demand
of the Bakers Union, and her shop
was boycotted, with the result that she
is doing more business than ever.
The persecution of Mrs. Gray is a
sufficient proof of the tyranny to which
the indiscriminate use of the boycott
leads. In her case, however, the boy
colt is likely to lead her to fortune.

The quality of the feminine ele-
ments in man and woman was ex-
planned scientifically by DR.. Jacobs at
a recent discussion. She said: The
feminine elements might he enumera-
ted as RESPONSIVENESS, suE.s ;ality,
immediate pract!calness or short range
practicalness and personality. These
are the result of ages of barbarous
existence in which woman had to do
her work and take care of her child at
the same time. Three things were al
ways on her mind, the baby, the din
ner pot and the man who was coming
back to growl about both. Hence, in
her habits of mind she became discur-
sive and superficial. Her short sight
ed practicalness came from the appli-
cation of immediate and simple RENE
dies. The baby cried; it must be
soothed. The pot boiled over; it
must be taken from the fire. The
man growled he must be cajoled into
good nature. She never went beyond
the second link in the chain. Her
personal tendency came from think
ing always of the child and its COM
fort.

Queen Victoria's daughters are said
to lead very dull and humdrum lives.
They are too high to find equals in
society; they must be surrounded
with a certain degree of state and
ceremony; they have their people 10
waiting, and everybody courtesies or
bows to them. But this is the extent
of their grandeur. Their incomes are
not to be compared with the revenues
OF the nobility; their jewels and tot
lets are inferior to the trappings of
many of the ladies who wait on them
they have no great estates, or man
sions, even, but must put up with
apartments in some half deserted pal
ace; and the spectacle they present
of impoverished royalty is pitiable
rather than dignified.
