Simplicity of character is the

The heart of the ungrateful is

Things Worth Remembering.

When using stale bread for buildings
always soak it in cold liquid. Bread that
has been soaked in cold milk or water is
light and crumbly, whereas that soaked
in hot liquid Is heavy.
If the tlatirou is dirty tie up pie ce OF
yellow beeswax in rag, and when the
iron is almost but not quite hoS enough
to use rub it quickly with the wax. and
then with a coarse cloth.
To remove lime from an iron pot wash
in strong vinegar.
If you wish to keep a sharp knife don t
put it in hot grease; stir your pntatoes
while frying or turn meat with fork or
an old case knife kept on purpose.
In boiling meats take the fat from the
top of the water and save for cooking or
soap. In roasting meat pour the grease
out of the pan or dip it out before it gets
burned. 1t will be excellent for use III
cooking. But if it stays till the meat is
done it will be nearly sure to have :.
burned, unpleasant flavor.
1t is claimed that few drops of eau do

parts, poured on handkerchief pre-
viously wetted with cold water, and
placed on the seat of neuralgia pain.

UNOANONIZED SAINTS.

From New York Letter.
The gift OF ST., 900 to the Jacksonville
sufferers made great stir in New York,
aud has set people talking about benevo
lent persons. II the names of this class
of saints could be collected it would
astonish that class of the community that
believe there are no really disinteres,ed
people in this world. A lady, whose
name has never been mentioned in public
has given 500 900 To build church for
the Protestant Episcopal College, and
gentleman, whose name is equally sec
ret has given 500, 600 for ii dormiiory for
the students. A southern lady, now res
ident in Brooklyn who has an ample
fortune, spends her days in In"kIng after
needy persons. She has cared for an old
colored woman for years, has given two
likely lads au education, aud always has
some prOtege not related to her by blood.
She delights in t"kiug with her to enter
tainments. lectures ard exhibitions per-
sons OF appreciation who have not the
means OF gratifying their taste She
thus secures Il double measure of eujoy
ment. There is also in BROOKLYN an old
Belgian lady, who delights in looking
after old sailors, taking them tobacco aud
supplying them with lpc"ssary articles.
These wise ladies extract a wonderful
amount of enjoyment from life and make
existence sunny and happy for many.

The Treaty.

The United States and Canadian
fishery treaty is at last published, ac-
companied by a message from the
president strongly and unqualitiedly
approving the instrument. The treaty
must be ratified by a two-thlrds vote
of the senate, be approved by the
Queen, aud receive the sanction of the
parliament of Canada and the legis-
lature of Newfoundland. TO run
this guanlet will take weeks, perhaps
months, and 1t may not run at ALL
The first point in the treaty fixes
the three mile limit from the shore,
not from the headlands, except when
a bay is ten miles or more wide at
the mouth.
The free navigation of the strait
of Canso is secured.
United States fishing vessels may
enter Canada ports and harbors for
shelter and repairs.
Outfits, provisions and supplies
may be purchased by our fishing YES
sells in Canadian and Newfoundland
waters, license being granted for the
same without charge.
Fishing vessels of Canada and New
foundland shall have on the Atlantic
coast of the United States all the
privileges reserved and secured by
this treaty to United States fishing
vessels in the aforesaid waters of
Canada and Newfoundland.
Every United States fishing vessel
must exhibit its official number.
Article IA fixes the penalty for il
legal fishing.
When the United States shall abol-
ish the duty on fish, oil, ETC., then
the United States vessels may pur-
chase bait, provisions, tranship, and
ship crews without charge in Cana
dian ports.

Slavery and Alcohol.

One of the best points in the Rev.
DR.. II. X. CAROLS admirable speech
on the third-party prohibitionists is
in the way he disposes of the claim
that the prohibition party finds JUS
LITIGATION for it's existence in the his
tory of the anti-slavery conflict. A
few earnest men formed the Liberty
party in 1910 because they became
convinced that there was no hope of
the abolition of slavery through Ell
ther of the established parties, and
that organization finally developed
into the great republican party. This
analogy is constantly used by the
prohibition advocates, and with con-
siderable effect among persons who
are not accustomed to think for them
selves. But, as DR.. Carroll shows,
there is not the slightest resemblance
between the two cases. The anti
slavery men formed separate organ
ization because that was the only
way in which slavery could be at
tackled. No man can truthfully say
that it is necessary to form prohi-
bitlon party in order to attack the Ii
quor evil. In many states it has
been restricted to a remarkable ex-
tent, and in most cases this has been
done by the republican party. In
every state the regulation of the Ii
QuOr traffic so as to diminish it's evils
within the narrOwest possible limits,
is the constant care of the republic
an party. In some of the states it
has gone SO far as to put on the stat
ute books general prohibitory laws.
Does any sane man suppose that if
the old wing party had done against
slavery what the republican party has
done against intemperance, the anti
slavery leaders would have formed a
to strengthen this manufactured par
allel by insisting that the sale of Ii
uuor is a form of wickedness with
which there can be no compromise
any more than there could be with
slavery. The analogy is utterly fall
lacious. Slavery was essentially sin
full, a violation of nature, not to be
justified under any circumstances or
bv any limitations. No man could
own another for an hour without COM
hitting a great moral wrong. But
the production and sale of liquor are
not only morally permissible, within
certain limits, but are absolutely in
dispensable. Liquor is used to a

The Governor of Vermont.

The salary of the governors Office
is comparatively small, but having
accepted the office Gov. Ormsbee
devotes his time to it with unscrimp-
ing fidelity. He makes its duties
his first duties. He attends all meet
ings where by constitution or law
the governor is required to be pres
ent, all farmers meeting~, dairy
mems associations, normal school
graduations, teachers meetings, Grand
Army encampments, state fairs, meet
ings of officials of the Home for
Vermont soldiers, meetings at the
insane asylum, work house, reform
school and meetings of the corpora
tors of the university, and a long
list of other gatherings where his
presence is required by implication
if not by express statute, because he
wants to understand and know what
ever the state and it's citizens gen.
orally are interested in a public ca
pacity. Unless we are greatly mis-
taken he attended more such meet
ings in the first year of his term than
any governor has ever done in two
years. eve are causing no refec-
tions upon former officials.) In adj
dtion to this the governors excellent
and graceful wife seems heartily TO
second him in all his official labors
and to be ever ready on all occasions
(as at the recent teachers associa-
ton In Brandon) to throw open their
house to all whom it seems proper
for the chief executive of the state
to tender a reception. We are glad
to see Vermont official do himself
and the state credit he has by his
course in these respects. If the
people, instead of the politicians,
had the right to name the next can
didate for governor, Mr.. Ormsbee
would undoubtedly be his own sue
cessor.-Burljngton Independent.

Gently been hurried forward, the en-

The County Commissioner.

AS no public meeting has been
held for the purpose of nominating a
county commissioner, by the advice
and in approval of several interested
in the matter, the MONITOR will nom
mate Hon. Amasa p. Dutton of
Craftsbury, present incumbent, as a
fit and worthy candidate. Judge
Dutton is too well known to need
any commentator. He not only
knows what his duties are but will
conscientiously do them. The law
of 1886 makes a change in the meth
cd of electing the commissioner, will
take place at the September election,
when candidates for commissioner
be voted for on the ticket with other
county officers. The commissioner
chosen at March meeting will hold
office until Dec. 1st, when the new
commissioner takes the office.
1t is worthy of notice that Mr..
Blaine's letter makes considera BILE
stir among English politicians. The
Times takes it up in it's usual grand
and philosophical style, Were Mr..
Blaine an ordinary man, thinks the
Times, his retirement would mean
one of two things; either certainty
in his own mind that he could not
carry the next election, or WEAKNESS
over the annoyance and disappoint-
ments of political life, But with a
politician so old and experienced as
Mr.. Blaine it is not easy to believe
that either of these explanations
meets the case. The Mugwumps re-
ceive no quarter from the monarch of
the English press. Their panegyrics
of Mr.. Cleveland as a civil service
reformer are treated with lofty con-
tempt. The accredited principle with
all American presidents down to the
present day that ''to the victor belong
the spoils," this principle may have
been moderated slightly in its appli-
cation by MIR. Cleveland, but not
enough to entitle him to any special
credit, certainly mot enough, we will
not say for the purist, but for ration
al critics"

1t is said that Russia has sent to
the powers a note asserting a claim to
the complete domination of Bulgaria.
Whether this be true or not, it is not
at all improbable, and the statement
only shows how uncertain is the po-
litical situation of Europe. Russia
holds an admitted claim against Tur-
key for indemnification for expenses
during the late war between the two
countries. Turkey cannot pay. Rus
ria has, therefore, a cause for war to
take territory. The Bulgarian ques-
ton, as much open as ever, affords a
pretext for the assault of Russia upon
Bulgaria for possession. England is
believed to have entered into some
sort of alliance as against Russia.
No large international questions have
been disposed of, of late. No one
sees anything leading to the preser-
walton of peace. There is plenty of
diplomacy but no conclusion.

The republicans of the New Jer-

for pushing through their County
Option High License bill against a
most extraordinary opposition on the
part of the democrats and liquor
sellers. The vote on the measure
was 30 repub. leans and two demo-
Gratis in favor, and 21 democrats and

There has been breeze among the
banks in the states on the northern
border of the country on account of
a claim put in by a collector Of U. S.
revenue for "back pay" or taxes on
Canadian bank notes since 1875. No
such claim has ever been made before
and as consequence the banks are
either shutting out Canadian bank
bills altogether or at large discount.
Meantime measures are beng taken
to either resist the claim or secure q
modification of the construction of
the law on this point now set up. 1t
is hardly probable that the full claim
put in by collector Page of Concord,
n. H., will ever be pressed. In view
of the great alarm prevailing in some
quarters about the accumulation of
surplus, that source of anxiety had
better not be increased.

ternational yacht races on either side
the sea, unless some yachting knight
Grant should suddenly go out of his
way to get one on his own account.
There will be no race on our side for
the Americas Cup, because the Eng
lish decline to submit themselves to
the terms of the deed of gift, and
there will be no American racer i'll

centerboards are ruled out. We have,
of course, no legitimate ground to

wanting to try the capacity of their
Yachts against ours.

Two towns in Ireland have boycott

ers were brought up for refusing to
sell liquor to policemen. Eleven went
free on a promise to sell to them,
and nine went to Jail rather than

bought all their liquor at the places
