The ARENA PoRTFoL1o.-We have re-
ceved copy of magnificent portfolio
published by the Arena Company, Boston,
containing the portraits and autographs of
twenty-four of the leading thinkers and
writers of the present generation. Each
portrait is printed on heavy-coated paper,
eight by ten inches, with India tint, giving
the finest possible effect. AT the nominal
price of fifty cents the portfolio would cost
$12, but the publishers have placed the price
complete at 81. Yearly subscribers to this
paper can have the arena and the portfolio
for the sum of S5.25.
"THE singing of Mary Howe is so
uniquely original that it is to be judged by
no ordinary standards of criticism. The
vocalism of the sweet Vermont lark is her
own, and any attempt at comparative criti-
cism must be unjust, after listening to
the matchless 1" Bird Song" last evening,
when the keenest perceptives in the au-
dience could hardly believe, at times, that
auditors were listening to a human voice,
SO beautifully true to natures sweet inter-
prefers were the wonderful notes which
rippled, trilled, hoated, scared and sparkled
in ever-varying, exquisite beauty which it
is impossible to reflect in praiseful terms,
be they never so extravagant. "-Northamp-
ton Herald. At Blanchard Opera-house,

WHILE Minnesota is one of the most
healthy states in the Union, it is one of the
worst for colds, owing to severe winters.
Many of the druggists there make it a rule
to give their customers just what they call
for; but when they come back and say it
done no good they almost invariably rec
ommend Chamberlain Cough Remedy, as
will be seen by the following from Messrs.
Wells & Schroeder of Sanborn, Mimi. we
have recommended Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy after other leading cough prepara-
tions have failed to do any good, and al
ways with the best results. We can always
rely upon that remedy, as it is sure to effect
cure. 1t has no equal for children, espe-
cially in cases of Group or whooping cough"

CoAL.-In addition to heavy teaming and
trucking, which shall continue as in the
past, have purchased of III. M. Pierce the
coal business carried on by him for the last
four years, and, by close and careful atten-
tion to the wants of my customers, intend
to merit and receive the patronage of the
public. The twenty years / have been en-
gagged in active business in Montpelier and
the careful attention / have given all or
ders intrusted to me should be a sufficient
guarantee of the future. More than three
fourths of the coal used in Montpelier has
for years past been delivered by my teams,
and the knowledge gained by long expert
ence of the best grades of coal, carefully Sc
cured when desired, and promptly deliv-
cred, makes it an advantage to consumers
to deal with me as well as for me to secure
them as my customers. Benjamin Daley.
THE "opening" of Mrs. S. l.. Gladding' 8
new millinery store, at "a State street, oc-
Cured on Friday and Saturday of last week.
The windows presented unique, fascinat-
ing and attractive appearance, the decora-
tions surprising anything in that line ever
seen in Montpelier. The remarkably good
taste shown in the exquisite harmony of
colors, in the profusion of flowers and in
the sklfully trimmed hats displayed, elic-
tied highest praise from the throng of visit
Ors. That the quality of goods and the skill
displayed in the makeup of the large stock
in store not only equaled but surpassed
the previous public announcement, was the
universal sentiment. Everything is new
and Of the latest styles, and prices are very
reasonable The trimming department is
specially worthy of note. Miss NJ. A.
Graves of New York, in charge of this de-
partment, combines with rare taste and
mastery tact the skill of an adept in decor
ative art. Mrs. S. l.. Gladding the propri-
etor, makes her initial bow under most fav-
orable auspices. Her ladylike bearing and
courteous cordiality, as well as successful
previous experience in the business, well
qualify her for and will doubtless COM
mand the largest measure of success.
CHOCOLATE FRosTING.-Some years ago
nearly every housekeeper thought that
for chocolate frosting on pudding, creams,
or for a beverage, she must have the
chocolate in sheets, and many hard
