ANNEXATION SENTIMENT IN
CANADA.

Extreme unrest seems to be one of
the characteristics of our Canadian
cousins at present and the annexation
sentiment seems to be spreading all
over the Dominion. AS the Portland
Press aptly says, however, there has
undoubtedly been considerable of it
for long while past, but it has been
prevented from making itself heard
by fear of personal punishment. The
Tillsonburg Liberal, which is publish
ed in the Province of Ontario, declares
that "political union is fast becoming
something more than a plaything."
It says it is ''fully convinced that Can
ada has hung on to the old worlds
apron strings long enough" The St.
John Telegraph says that cit seems to
be pretty generally accepted, not only
in Montreal, but throughout Canada,
that the present relations between
the dominion and the mother coun-
try can not be very long main
tained;n while the Globe of the same
city declares that Gin very short
time this country will be alive with
the fires of new political agitation of
a more sweeping character than any
we have yet had"
In referring to the resolution pass
ed by the liberals recently in South
Norfolk advocating political union
with the United States the Haldimand
Advocate says: "Speed the day" The
Irish Canadian, one of the most indu
entail organs of the Irish party in
Canada, says: "Where or how this
laundering after annexation, becom
idg more marked from week to week,
is going to end it is difficult to say,
but that the annexation fever is
spreading can not be denied except
by wrench of conscience"
But while Canadians may be strong
ly in favor of annexation, we see very
little innication of favorable attitude
toward the proposed union on this
side of the boundary line. The Cana
dams must to all appearances serve
a long period on probation before
they can hope to be accepted in full
connection as part of the United
States.

In Morgan, Dec. 13, Matilda, wife of Frank
LeClair, aged 10 years
In West Concord, Dec. II, Mrs. Ruth Gray
In Irasburgh, Dec. Tot heart disease, Ellery
Stanford M. D., son of Samuel and Sarah A.
(Burt) Stanford, aged 80 years. He graduated
at the Howard University Medical College,
Washington d. c., in 1885, with honor, stand
ing high n his class. He commenced the
practice Of medicine in Irasburgh, where h
was born and reared, in 1888. AT his death he
had very large and successful practice. He
generally beloved, gentlemanly, kind.
sympathetic, and generous almost to fault.
To the poor he would respond without pros
pect of a fee reward, to the detriment of
his own health. By his death this communi-
ty has met with severe and almost irrepara-
BILE loss, for which we all mourn. While mod
est and unpretending, he won the esteem and
confidence of the people by his quiet and
assuming department. He close stu
dent and devoted his spare time to the study
of and improvement in his profession, to
which he seemed peculiarly adapted. His flu
neral was attended Dec. IL by unprecedent-
edly large coEcourse of people from this and
other towns, Revs. w. G. Johnson and F. B.
Phelps officiating.
To Mr.. and Mrs. Samuel Stanford on the
death of their son. DR.. Ellery Stanford. Writ
ten by Mrs. H. A. Tibbetts, Irasburgh, VT:
Snatched away in a moments time,
Snatched away in his manho od's prime,
Oh, little We thought he walked away,
So soon they'd bring back his lifeless clay.
1t seems so strange that we did not know
The time was at hand that he must go;.
But the me rciful Father throws veil
Ger conin3 events, else the heart would fail
For his welcome footsteps coming we listen
all IN vain;
His dear familiar voice we hear no more
again.
hen we gather round the fireside and see
his vacant chair,
Our hearts bowed in sorrow, it seems so
hard to bear.
Oh, give us faith and courage to keep along
the way
To that blest land of promise, where sorrows
pass away,
Where we shall meet the dear ones who have
passed on before,
Where parting scenes and sorrows will trou-
Die us no more.

The fair given by the Ladies' Aid
Society, Dec. rs was success in ev-
cry way. The literary exercises we re
pronounced good. Miss Susie Cum
ningham of Lyndon gave recitation,
which was encored and to which she
responded with one still more pleas :
ing. The Musical Sunfowers and the
Hermon Melodeon were novel and
pleasing. Over hundred oil paint
ings were on exhibition in the art
gallery, sixty belonging to Miss Luella
Anger, who is a rising young artist.
The receipts for the two evenings
sixty of which was cleared by the So
ciety.
Over hundred friends and neigh
bors of A. III. Ball and wife, from this
and adjoining towns, gave them gen
uine surprise, to celebrate their thirty
third wedding anniversary. A gener-
GUS supper was served and very
pleasant social visit enjoyed, until
late in the evening, when Rev. r. w.
Churchill read a poem, and presented
Mr.. Ball with a nice coon skin coat
and Mrs. Ball with an easy chair, as
tokens of esteem from friends present
and absent. Mr.. and Mrs. Ball re-
sponded in well chosen words. Sever
al other poems were read. S. D. At
wood of ST Johnsbury, assisted in
several songs. The two sons, Henry
Ball of Lebanon, N. H., and Frank
Ball of ST Johnsbury were present.

ARE GIRLS SLANGIER THAN Boys.

A writer states that girls use more
slang especially if they are grow-up
than boys do. Girls, it is affirmed,
talk much more than boys, so that
their stock Of uncouth words is in
more frequent use. 1t is also larger.
If boy were mine of slang his tact
turnity would keep it concealed from
all but few of his chums. His inven-
tions are confined to small circle
and his opportunities Of borrowing
are corresponding diminished. Not
SO with the girl. The loquacity of her
associates, aided by her own, spreads
and multiplies slang with the greatest
rapidity. She is more sociable. At
school she is 'tthick'' with a dozen
and gathers in all the dozen know.
And besides, says the same authority,
girls are so reckless in the use of Ian
guage that they give alslangy char
acter to good English. With the girl
at the period of gigglehood every good
thing is perfectly so. She 'snever''
does this and she "always' does that.
Sometimes she "feels hateful,'' but it
is oftener some one else who is
perfectly horrid." Nearly every
thing is lawful Such are some of
the charges this abominable person
brings against the sweet young Great
ures. Another authority fatty con-
tradicts them all and says the bow is
the sun of all villaines The words he
prefers, it is asserted are SO tinged
with profanity that he cannot use
them at home, and it is thus only that
he gets his reputation for freedom
from slang. Who can settle the dis
pute? We are of the opinion that in
justice is done to the girls We are
confident also that few boys are as
bad as represented. Is it possible that
the So called eauthority'' has been
judging the world from his few un-
fortunate associates.

Deafness Can't be Cured

by local applications, as they caunot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition lining of the Eutachian Tube.
When this tube gets infamed you have
u rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed deafness
is the result, and unless this inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restored
to it's normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by cararrh, which is nothing
but an inflamed condition of mucous sur,
faces.
We will give one hundred dollars for any
case of deafness Caused by catarrh) that
we cannot cure by taking Halls Catarrh
