HOT
WATER
HEATING

It gives me the greatest pleasure to be able
to introdce to the people of Brattleboro and
twenty-five new Perfect Hot Water Heater
made by the Richardson & Boynton Co.
This heater contains more features for saw
Ing fuel and labor and is better adapted for
heating dwellings,, offices, schools and public
buildings than any other makes of hot water
heaters, by reason of their enormous heating
capacity and increased square feet of boiler
surface, economy in fuel and positive circua-
ton. They are the best positive and rapid
circulating hot water heaters made. These
heaters present IL times more surface to
the direct action of the fire than any other
heater made, and are acknowledged by leading
heating engineers to be far in advance of any
heater that has yet been placed upon the
market. This system is fast becoming popu-
lar and is giving universal satisfaction. l |
have one of the heaters on my floor and
would. ask all who contemplate putting in |
a heating apparatus of anv kind to call and |
ook into the merits of hot water heating be-
fore purchasing.

When Errors Are Excellent.

A Baltimore paper is praising Mark
Twain's delightful drawl."
This is just what might have been
expected. Nothing is more disagree
able than the drawing utterance Of an
unknown man, but in one who is sue
cessful and famous, it is, as our contem-
porary says, simply delightful.
When the average man fails to pro-
nounce common words correctly, peo-
pie laugh at him, but Walter Savage
Landor's barbarous pronunciation, the
like of which will never be heard on
earth again, was generally admired.
It is so with mans dress, manners
and habits--the crucial test is his
status in the world. The younger gen

and the only maxim now quoted is
that Of the cynical Frenchman: "Noth-
ing succeeds like success. atlanta

good reason. For the sea is full of
hungry fishes, always rowing about on
the lookout for just such tidbit as a
sea-slug. The sea-slug, therefore, has
been colored and shaped like the sea-
weed it lives on, in order that when
some sharp-eyed fish comes swimming
along he may never dream so tempting
morsel to be near. I suppose he
looks at it and turns up his nose, say
ing to himself, Pooh! that's nothing
but an old sea-weed!" and off he goes,
while our sea-slug no doubt laughs in
its sleeve and says, "Sea-weed, in
deed!"
This wonderful resemblance is an
example of what naturalists call pro
tective resemblance" which in this
case is SO perfect as to merit the name
of "mimicry." Because, you see, the
animal mimics the plant and is thus
protected from it's enemies.

FRANK CusH1NG's find of a vast GEM
etery in Arizona bids fair to be of
greater importance than was at first
supposed. Over one hundred skulls
being examined, all prove to be of the
broad or round type, and not one of
the long or dolicho cephalic sort.
There are fragments and remains of
arts and industries in the graves which
enable scientists to reconstruct quite
fairly the state of civilization of the
natives of that land when the Gene
terry was in use. But most important
of all, those who were sent on from
Washington to aid Mr.. Gushing have
discovered that in the jaw there is in
variably popularity almost unknown
to our race. The problem of the an
Gent population of our Southwest now
seems near solution.

Taz Russian papers are publishing
various statements according to which
the Russian branch Of the English
family Lesley has recently inherited
in England legacy of some el0,0oo,-
600 sterling. The legatees are, how.
ever, according to the papers, re-
quested to become British subjects
before the amount is paid to them.
One of them, General Lesley, who
only short time ago was appointed
chief of brigade at verni, in Asia,
has just arrived at Kieff. He has told
some friends that it would not be con-
venient for him as Russian military
officer to become British subject,
but that there is fair hope that about
p, 900, 900 rubles will be paid without
the obligation being enforced.

The suicide of the wretch Pigott at
Madrid is the logical outcome of his
exceptional career of crime. Convicted
of blackmail, forgery, perjury, and of
playing the traitor even to those whom
he was protesting to serve, and of do
ing it all for money, having confessed
that he was guilty of every crime
charged against him, and having
branded his own forehead with his in
famous record, what was left for him
to do but blow off the head that could
conceive and harbor so much infamy {?
History fails to record more despi-
cable or diabolical character. Most
criminals have some redeeming quality.
This man had none. Having MUIR
dered his own character, his own in
tegrity and self-respect, what better
could he do than to murder himself !?
If the argument for total depravity
needs any illustration in future, it al
ways will be found in this man Pigott.

Floy Nelson covered her eyes and

with crash, and Joe and his little
charge were flung down on the hard
stones with pitiless force.
Hurt? Yes, little. Grace received
broken arm and Joe broken ankle,
but both recovered, and Joe declared
it the luckiest fire he ever knew, for it

too happy in ministering unto him.

young man named Tobias Lear, whom
President Washington discovered in
Massachusetts,. There was also for
some time Colonel Humphreys in the
household of the first President. He
had been attached to the American Lee
cation in Paris under Jefferson, and it
was mainly by his advice that the
stately etiquette Of Washington's levees
and receptions was introduced. The
private secretaryship was not of much
Importance in the beginning of the
Republic. The Office was created in

drudgery of signing his name person
