1t is said that some of the most successful
bug collectors in the country are tramps.
We don't SEQ what good watch has to
he ashamed Of, and got you will notice that
it always keeps its hands over its face.
We cannot always approve the argu-
ments which are used TO get people to join
the church. For instance here is one we
heard the other day: Every unmarried
man ought to join the church, for there is
10 telling how soon he win want the church
to join him
Some mon like to keep bachelors hall, but
in our opinion bachelor never makes so
good a haul as when he gets married.

ticular at least is superior TO the old--it re-
suits in securing better salaries for the
teachers. Our correspondent evidently
does not realize that Vermont must pay its
teachers better salaries or else fall still fur
Their behind the educational procession The
new law is faulty, all its friends admit that,
but the fact that it is likely to advance the
salaries of teachers and hence to command
the services of better teachers is not one of
its faults

Transacted.

Transacted.
The adjourned annual meeting of the
stockholders of the Burlington Cold Storage
company was held at the Van Ness House
on the Sth inst. with n fair attendance Of
stockholders. The president, b. S. Jonas,
occupied the chair. In the absence of the
treasurer A. G.. PIERCE, the secretary re-
ported the financial condition of the corpor-
alton. The report showed that the storage
building cost about $1,000 and that the ice
house which was built at the location first
granted by the Central Vermont railroad
before it was decided to build nj the foot of
College street. cost with the putting up of
the ice 5000 making in all $1,000. 1t also
appeared that stock had been sold to the
amount of $4,000. lnasmuch as the COM
pany was incorporated with capital stock
of only $4,000, it was voted that
the capital stock of the corporation be
increased to $4,000 and aftet that what
stock was not taken at once by the present
stockholders should be offered TO others de-
string stock According to the reports the
prospects are of the best that the stock will
pay good dividend. The company has a
standing offer of five per cent on the money
invested over and above all insurance and
taxes, but the directors think tho company
can do better by running the building them
selves.

the outlook for future business, the follow
