THE art of forgetting is blessed art
but the art of overlooking is quite as
important. And, if we should take time
to write down the origin, progress, and
outcome of few of our troubles, it
would make us so ashamed of the fuss
we make over them that we should be
glad to drop such things and bury them
at once in eternal forgetfulness.

OPPONENTS of the new tariff law de-
clare that it will ALLEVIATE European
sympathy in American affairs, and that
our markets will suffer in consequence.
Sympathy is small element in trade
transactions, and Europeans will con-
tinue to buy and sell in the best markets.
Nations, the same as firms and individ-
uals, lose nothing by looking after their
business interests.

THE responsibility of wise and good
measures in our political or social Or
ganizations does not rest wholly upon
the leaders who pass them; it belongs
largely to the people whose mental and
moral progress has led up to them and
made them possible; and no intelligent
individual, no one capable of consider
ing the subject and expressing his own
convictions, is exempt from the duty of
thus performing his share in the forma-
ton of public opinion.

HE who has learned the secret of a
happy life will bow his head before life's
storms, but will gladly raise it again to
welcome the returning sunlight. Many
of the troubles men suffer are imagina-
ry and born of their fears; many of them
are trifles unworthy to dwell in their
thoughts; many more might be avoided
by care on their own part; and very many
contain within them the seeds of good
to themselves and benefit to others that
could be produced in no other way.
CHILDEN early catch the tone of their
surroundings, and become harsh or ten
der, Indifferent or solicitous, sympathet-
ic or selfish, courteous or rude, as those
around them. Bya loving example and
persuasive influence they can be accus-
toned from the first to take pleasure in
each others joy and to be sorry for each
others pain-to try to promote the one
and assuage the other, to be kind and
courteous, generous and self sacrificing,
until such feelings and conduct grow to
be the habit of their lives.
AN important hygienic rule is never to
thwart the advance guard of sleep the
drowsy impulse-whichi in healthy indi-
viduals will be found to occur about the
same hour each night. At its approach
the individual should invariably betake
himself to rest; nor should he tarry until
this drowsiness Verges on unconscious
ness, but at the very first intimation of
brain WEAKNESS he should seek to as
sumo horizontal position as quickly as
possible. If this rule be scrupulously
maintained, it will usually be found
that sleep intervenes almost us the head
touches the pillow.

made to pass over the article. Ezra

and they needed good deal more
money to finish up work already

voted unanimously not to issue more

LECTURE ON NEW GUINEA.

A. p Goodwin, a native of New
South Wales, gave lecture at Mu-
sic hall Tuesday evening on the in
terror of New Guinea The fact that
so little is known of this country led
many to anticipate much. The lee
ture was illustrated by stereopticon
views of the country, its native in
habitants and the wonderful birds
that are found there The country is
one of great fertility and produces a
great variety of choice fruits and
woods; the natives are sufficiently
repulsive in appearance to be subjects
for missionary effort; the birds are
very beautiful and very rare. The
pictures are fine, but the lecturer can
not tell his story with as much in
terest as might be wished. The fact
that he has scarcely yet mastered the
English language will partially ac-
count for this.

A TESTIMONIAL.

Last Saturday evening A. S. Liv-
ingston was completely surprised
and considerably taken a-back by
the appearance at his house of a
large delegation of his 'boys," as he
calls them-men who had been in his
employ while superintendent of the
Fairbanks outdoor work-who pre-
sented him with a beautiful gold
headed cane. There were about
thirty men in this conspiracy and in
cluded those who had been employed
by him 20 years as well as those who
had been at work under him for only
few months. 1t was an unexpected
but no less thoughtful and appreci-
ated token.

Rev. n. w. Grover will close a

simply because the church is too poor
to pay his salary. He is a man of
rare qualities as pastor, preacher and
citizen and his removal will be a loss
to the church and town. A little
missionary work near home would
seem to be in order

RECENT DEATHS.
TiIIOfSOu.

Rev. B. M TillOtson, the veteran
and widely known Universalist min
lister, died at White River Junction
on the 18th He had been i'll for sew
eral months but only gave up preach
ing a few weeks ago. Catarrh of the
stomach and bowels, with trouble
of the throat, caused death. He was
about II years old and at one time
had attended more marriages and
funerals than any other minister in
New England. He went to MancheS-
ter, N. H., in 1914 as pastor of the
First Universalist church, where he
remained some 25 years. He remov-
ed from Manchester to St. .Johnsbury
and was pastor of the Un1versalIst
church here many years. A few years
since he removed to Woodstock, but
was frequently in this town where he
married his wife and had many
friends and strong attachments. He
was very genial, social man by ma
ture, and although three score and
ten years old many people who knew
him well would have guessed his age
not over so years. His burial was
at Oxford, N. H., Monday, attended
by Rev S. A. Parker of Bethel, as
sisted by several other clergy and the
Odd Fellows, with Hon. Joseph Kid
der of Manchester as leader. A spe-
cial train was run from Woodstock
and goodly number from this and
other places were in attendance.
Many floral offerings were sent by
friends of the deceased. He left a
widow and three children.

CHANGE IN VILLAGE APPOINT
MENTS.

CHANGE IN VILLAGE APPOINT
MENTS.
At meeting of the village trustees
Saturday evening it was voted to do
away with the plumbing business
and to sell the stock and tools on
hand to H. ]. Goodrich according to
a proposition he had made. E. H.
Blossom was appointed superintend-
ent of streets, sidewalks, sewers and
water works, and o. w. Orcutt
is engaged to run the pumps.
People who wish for the village
water will apply to the superintend-
ent and the village will make con-
nection with the street main and
carry the water to the street line, at
which point their responsibility
ceases in case Of freezing or accident
beyond that line The action of the
trustees in making these changes
was purely economic. They thought
the village would be better off in the
end to dispense with the plumbing
business. Mr. Orcutt, the man en-
gagged to look after the pumps, is a
mechanic of established reputation
and will doubtless be good man for
the position Mr. Blossom has
proved himself a competent man in
all he has undertaken, and his addi-
tional duties will be assumed with
the same conscientious fidelity that
has characterized his work for the
village the past year.
