The Two Governors.

If Vermont lacks in the progressive
ness of its legislature in this year of
our Lord 1892, it is no fault of the re-
firing or The incoming Governor.
Carroll S Page gave us clean cut
business administration, and in his Of
fetal valedictory he crowns his guber-
material cereer by dispensing sound,
practical common sense advice in solid
chunks. Governor Fuller meets the
people on the threshold of his admins
tration with salutatory the diagnosis
of which leaves no doubt in the minds
of candid thinking people that Yer.
mont made no mistake in the choice of
its chief executive. More especially
interesting to the farming class of our
state are the subjects of agriculture"
..roads," "raiIroads," "salaries of
State Boards" and elections" In
fact the whole inaugural address is
composed of wholesome ideas couched
in language so purely Anglo-Saxon
that every man must admit that Gov
ernor Levi X. Fuller is level headed
man, man of and for the people
The subjects of "uniform laws" and
"municipal suffrage" are measures full
ly up W Jllc IlulCS dHli uCoCi VIC tIlC COlI-
sideration of the legislature.
Gov. Page in his farewell to the gen
eral assembly especially commends
himself to the approval of the average
citizen in his remarks on "hasty legis
lation," and the members will do well
to cut this out and paste it in their
hats. Never in the history of Vermont
has there been such harmonious
coupling of the two administrations as
has been exemplified by the two mes
sages. The change of captaincy in the
ship of state makes no perceivable jar.

In all the schools of the United States.
A uniform programme for every school
in America, to be used on Columbus
Day simultaneously with the dedicatory
exercises of the Worlds Columbian ex-
position grounds in Chicago, will give
an impressive unity to the popular cele-
bration. Accordingly, when the super
intendents of education last February
accepted the plan for this national pub
lie school celebration, they instructed
their executive committee to prepare an
official programme of exercises for the
day, uniform for every school.
The following programme has been
prepared by the committee:
The schools should assemble at a. m. in
their various rooms. At $50 the detail of vet
Grams is expected to arrive. 1t is to be met at
the entrance of the yard by the color guard of
pupils, escorted with dignity to the building
and presented to the principal. The principal
then gives the signal and the several teachers
conduct their pupils to the yard, to drumbeat
or other music, and arrange them In hollow
square about the flag, the veterans and color
guard taking places by the flag itself The
master of ceremonies then gives the command,
-Attentionp and begins the exercises by read

Good looks are more than skin deep, de-
pending upon healthy condition of all the
vital organs. If the liver be inactive, you
have bilious look, if your stomach be
disordered you have dyspeptic look and
if your kidneys be effected you have a
pinched look. Secure good health and you
will have good looks. Electric Bitters is
