DEATHS
TO TIE
FARMERS Of VERMONT !

1t has accidently come 10
my knowledge that you oc'
casionally make complaints
because of the small sums re-
ceived for your Dairy skins.
The fault is your own, for il
you would take them off and
properly care for them you
would rarely find a skin that
would bring you less than so
cents, and a great many OF
them would bring you GO, 70
and even 80 cents each.
Poor skins, like poor butter,
are poor property and bring a
poor price. 1t will cost you
only penny for postal card
on which to send me your ad,
dress, to secure full printed
directions as to the proper
method Oft taking off and caring
for your calf skins. | will very
gladly mail these to you free,
postpaid, if you will send me
your name and SO request.
In most of the towns Of Ver-
mont | have buyers but in To-
calities where | have none ]
would suggest that a half doz-
en- farmers club together and
ship their skins in quantities OF
25 or more in which case
will pay all freights after de-
livery at R. R. depot. | can
not allow you wholesale prices
in towns where l have a buy
er but where / have none
will gladly arrange with an.
reliable farmer who is willing
to attend to the matter of col
lecting skins taken off in hi
) vicinity, and in such case will
of course allow the buyer
commission.

Edward Aiken, Town Clerk

Edward Aiken was the first Town
Clerk of Kent and the town meetings
were held at his mill at the outlet of
Derry pond, now known as Lowell lake.
He was evidently an active business man
owned not only this mill but in connec-
ton with Daniel Aiken built the saw
will at N. Derry now owned by Mr..
Curtis. On the 18th of December, 1890
Jonathan Aiken, Daniel Aiken, Jenny
Aiken and Mary Aiken in consideration
of five pounds lawful money bargained
"all our claim to one-half of the saw mill
and grist mill to VIM. Aiken built in
partnership between Capt. Edward Aiken
and Daniel Aiken on the West river in
the westerly part of the town of London
derry" Edward Aikens son William
lived where Leroy Howard now lives and
his son Jonathan lived where the late
John Aiken lived before he moved into
the house where he died. Jonathan had
charge of the mill at Londonderry village.

Mob Law in New Orleans.

Last Saturday New Orleans was
disgraced by a mob whose work
etends unparalleled in American his.
tory-maddened by the miscarriage
of justice in the case of the Italians
charged with the murder of chief OF
police, Hennessy, last October. A
call was issued for meeting of citi.
zens to assemble at the Clay statue
on Saturday morning. About three
thousand persons responded. From
thence they marched to the Jail which
they forcibly entered and breaking
down the cell doors shot to death nine
Italians and hung two.
The Italian government is moving
in the matter and without doubt will
ask for full reparation, which our gov
ernment must in honor grant. But
serious complications are sure to arise
between the federal and Louisiana
authorities.

The Rutland Herald is making a
vigorous fight to have Henry Smith,
County Clerk, removed from office.
The Herald charges Smith with
gross immoralities of long standing
we'll known to all the citizens of Rut-
land. 1t further says that the lawyers
refuse to ask for his dismissal until q
divorce suit now pending, is decided.
when Smith will be proven guilty Oh
acquitted. This, the Herald claims
virtually is mere subterfuge, ant
in the absence of their acting, calls
upon the citizens generally, and es
pecially the women, to sign petitions
asking for Smiths removal. Tht
women are taking hold of the matter
in earnest and are signing the peti
tions by the score. 1t will be inter
esting to watch this case and see hov
much pressure it will require to caus'
Vermont Court to dismiss a gross
ly immoral servant. The Herald i!

and women in Vermont for its bolt

violater of the sanctity Of his home.

Increase OF Crime I'm the Country.

From the Chicago Tribune.
In seeking for the causes OF the
increase of the percentage OF crime
in this country Mr.. Coffin finds, first
that the deportation of criminals
from Europe is largely responsible,
the census showing that Lof 49, ,127
penitentiary convicts whose birth
place and parentage are known, the
foreign born element Of the popula-
tion furnished 14,725, the colored
population 14,6S7, and the native
white population which probably
outnumbers them both only 1915;
second the promiscuity of prisoners
in the county jails which makes them
schools of crime; third, the inatten-
ton paid to the proper separation Of
prisoners in penitentiaries; fourth,
the insufiiciency Of legislation to
completely check the inflow Of chill
dren of paupers and criminals; fifth,
the preponderance of criminals
among the descendant of slaves;
aud sixth, the condition of persons
outside of prisons with their temp
tations to make money by illigiti-
mate methods. To these causes Mr..
Coffin might well have added the
laxness of criminal law, the tricks of
criminal lawyers, the corruption of
juries and the inadaequacy and un-
certainty of punishment.

Over Hasty Feeding.

ut is a grave mistake" said doc
tor ''to eat to quickly" Those ami
animals intended by nature to feed
hurriedly have been provided with
gizzards, or with the power of rum
ination. No matter how good a
mans teeth may be, if he bolts his
food his stomach must suffer terri
bly, thereby. When a person swal.
lows an imperfectly masticated
piece of animal food, the result is
that the food instead Of fulfilling the
purposes of nutrition, acts, on the
other hand as source of irration to
the stomache. Thus either the phys
ical condition runs down or addition
al food is required to maintain the
general standard of health. Amsri-
cans are called pie eaters Do you
know whyi Because pie is something
that may be eaten on the run, while
the great American enterprises may
thus go unimpeded by the loss of
time. Overhasty feeding is the bane
Of American life. We are all of us
becoming dyspeptics.-New York
