A Romantic Mans Dilemma.

Three young ladies employed in one
of the manufactures in Middlctown
wrote their names upon slip of paper
and enclosed it in box which was
shipped to Boston. The slip of paper
fell into the hands of an old gentleman
who, week after, made his appear

duced TO the young ladies', and, after
paying attention to all, returned to
Boston TO decide, it is said, which shall

New Departure I'm Instrumental Music.

A peculiar feature of amusement
life in New York is the growth of the
women orchestras. Women now fur
nish all the instrumental music in the
immense Atlantic Garden on the Bow
cry, in the Volks and Gander's Gar
dens and in more than one-dozen
smaller places on the cast side. Ex-
perience has taught the managers of
such establishments that the women
play rs well as the average man instru-
mcntalist, that they arc reliable as to
hours, that they never get drunk and
that they never 60 OH strike, and
with all these excellent qualities they
cost much less money than the male
performers. They receive from $40
to $50 week for seven nights and
thrcc day performances, for which a
man, according TO the commands of
the Musical Union, would be obliged
to demand and receive 50 or So for
each of the ten performances.
O.her cities have inauguratcd this
change to a sligh'cr degree, and this
new condition of things is growing so
rapidly that already the demand for
women musicians is far in excess of
the supply. Tho girls come manly
from Vienna, Berlin, Lcipsic and
Buda-Pcsth. | am told by the head of
German amusement agc"cy, which
docs brokerage in this class of public
entertainers, that they have now on
hand fourteen unfulfilled contracts for
orchestras of this kind, and that the
necessary number of women layers
have started or ave about starting from
the other side of the ocean. 1t is a
somewhat unexpected popularity that
these blooming foreigners do MT lose
their heads and fall victims TO the wiies
of that unmitigated and pcstifcrous
nuisance the American "Johnnc."
For instance, Frau Roll-r and Frauleln
Ricci have been installed as queens in

To Those Who Save.
JUST CONSIDER THIS.

Do you ask, "Where can do this and
have my money absolutely safe ?" Let
us give you some facts. The Lamoille
County Savings Bank and Trust Co. OF
Hyde Park is an institution run on tho
following principles -
Isl. Not dollar is loaned without
the personal knowledge of some one of
tile Board of Directors that the loan is
safe beyond question.
I'd. 1t is run as a home institution.
Every dollar is loaned in Lamoille and
adjacent counties, and every worthy en-
terpriSe in the vicinity of the towns
whence the deposits of the Bank come,
is fostered and encouraged i'll preference
to ether investments, so far as it can be
done with absolute safety.
81. Under no circumstances is dol
lar invested in any western mortgage or
other Out-of-the-state security. We
might perhaps pay our depOsitors one
half of one per cent. per annum more
interest by mourning little addition
al risk, if no loss should. come, but we
believe there is to-day 'long-felt
want" in Vermont for savings institu-
ton which will loan it's funds at home.
1t is needed that Vermont may not
become impoverished. 1t is needed for
the building up and fostering home in
situations. Vermont towns will not
boom without money any more than
towns beyond the Mississippi and in
Alabama. 1t is needed for the greater
safety of the savings of widows and
orphans as well as of all those who look
rather to the absolute security Of the
principal than to high rates of interest.
With no disparagement to our neigh
bors who prefer to occupy western
fields we offer to the depositing public
the Lamoille County Savings Bank and
Trust Co. as an institution organized to
meet the demand for strictly home in
restment Savings Bank. That such
demand exists, and that the people are
ready to bestow their confidence and
encouragement upon such an institu-
ton, is evidenced by the fact that the
aggregate of the small deposits alone in
this Bank-not counting any in excess
of Sl000-were at the end of the first six
months of its business, S57, 1890, a
record without parallel, we believe, in
the history of Vermont Savings Banks.
4th. Under no circumstances does
this Bank take over per cent. II would
not, knowingly, make an investment
which would pay over 6 per cent. The
safest class of loans and securities will
command money at per cent. The
Bank pays the State tax of six tenths
of per cent. on deposits in lieu of all
taxes to the depositor. 1t must then
be evident that per cent. per annum is
all that the Bank can SAFELY PAY. This
rate it will pay. 1t is guaranteed and
rests on no contingency. Interest will
be compounded semi annually if not
withdrawn.

! Sixty years ago two little girls wandered
about the French city of Lyons, singing In
squares, on dOorsteps and before the open
entrances Of the taverns. Now and then
they were given a centime or two for their
trouble, but oftener they received nothing
but harsh words. One day when the num-
bsr of coins tossed to them had been smaller
wen than usual the two sisters stopped be.
fore q house where . gay party was gath
cred and sang their best. That best was
20 good that M. Choran, an eminent mas
ter OF singing who was one of the listeners,
was Impressed by II. When they went
homo that night they had q double hand
full OF confines and a gold piece or two as
well.
. A few days afterward NJ. Choran found
his var to the squalid lodgings where the
sisters lived with their father, q Hebrew
peddler named Felix. He made a PROPOSE
ton b, the peddler, and some shining coins
passed from the pocket Of NJ. Choran to
that OF his listener. When VI. Choran went
out into the street again he led by the hand
the younger of the two sisters, who looked
almost too Insignificant to be named Eliza
beth Rachel Felix.
n. Choran trained the voice Of the little
Jewess with great care and 1t developed
rapidly Before long, however. he realised
that the girls great talent was not for
singing. but for acting. BY this time she

and Mariquita rounded ahead Of her. In
the run OF the crack fortier in the first Of
the Corinthian series for the Hemenway-
Thayer cup both yachts were caught in
bad weather and neither won, although
the Gossoon ran away from the Minerva
on the home run. In the second race for
the cup the Minerva won a leg for the
trophy, beating the Gossoon by only two
seconds on corrected time.
In this race Will Fife, Jr.. Of Fairlie,

Elizabeth Rachel Felix, she was the great
Rachel.
In September, 1855, she appeared for the
first time In America, playing at the Met
ropolitan theatre In New York rs Camille In
les Horace" On Nov. 10 Of the same year
she vent to Philadelphia and played once.
That night she caught a cold from which
she-never fully recovered. Only once more
did the curtain rise on the beautiful RAJ
chel, although she lived until Jan. ), 1858.
She died at Cannes, having Insisted on
being taken to her beloved France to pass
her last days on the earth which had known
her for only thirty eight years.
America had known her for a few months
only, but In those few months she had
made more admirers than any other actress
could have male in years. Among them
was Thomas Bailey Aldrich. who was at
that time just beginning to contribute short
prose and verse 10 newspapers and peri
odicals. Three years or more ago Mr.. Aid
rich. whose name is now better known
than is Rachel's, was present at a little
gathering in Detroit at which l7-year-old
Judith Berelde was one Of the readers.
"She looks like Rachel" was Mr.. AID
rich's instant comment; and after the read
ing vas over he added. 'and she reads like
Rachel, too"
10 less than a year the girl of whom Mr..
Aldrich had spoken so kindly had begun q
life Of hard work on the stage. And Mr..
Aldrich's remark probably had much todo
with her choice OF a career. Not that she
had not always dreamed OF becoming an
actress, but il is not always easy TO get Q
manager to notice you. Notwithstanding
the fact that almost every successful per-
son denies IL, true talent does sometimes
60 a-begging. A word from one who y
already known Is better than a bushel Of
ability when II comes TO getting the fnt
trial. After that the ability looms up and
the words dwindle.
A curious coincidence Is that long before
Miss Berelde knew that she looked like
Rachel, she had selected the latter's To-
vorits play "Phedra" a. her own ideal,
and had thoroughly learned Its grand old
lines. .aExfTHr
