A HELP
To Save Your 10 Cents a Day .


No one is strong enough to do
everything himself. We all want
help of some kind. Saving is hard
to some people. Some of the great
est minds the world has known found
it impossible to save cent. Some
times this is because of poverty,
sometimes carelessness, sometimes
forgetfulness. The World-Herald
has thought of this. 1t has provided
Daily reminder" a monthly cal
endar and dime saving bank COM
bined. You get one free with the
encyclopedia. You drop your dime
in every day-you can't help but do
that-and at the end of the month
you have enough saved to pay off an
installment on the encyclopedia.
And it's so easy to drop that dime in.
You only do it once day. Two car
fares Who ever feels the loss of two
car fares? This is taking it for
Encyclopedia Britannica, but think
you can't save enough to do so.
It's hardly for any other reason, is it.
1t can't be if you are an American, a
man who wishes to know everything,
to do everything, to become every
thing, to attain to honor and wealth.
There's one path to his-knowledge.
knowledge is power. Power is po-
tency to do, to become, all that one
desires. You can't be powerful I'M
less YOU know. You must be up to
date; abreast of the times. Little
use reading ancient text books. Get
the text book of the age on every
thing-the Encyclopedia Britannica.
The great original ninth edition,
commenced some years ago, was only
completed in December, 1889. 1t is
only revised and reprinted every Is
or 20 years. and the ninth edition is,
therefore, the very latest. The edi-
zion offered by THE ARGUS has been
brought down to the present time.
1t is more complete than sthe ninth
English edition. Thirty thou
sand dollars has been expended
in adding to it. Nothing elimated.

few days. Those who take their
chance when they get it are the wise
ones.

SOME SWEET FIGURES.

The following figures, which were sent
to the associated press from the testing
station at Montpelier, may be taken as
official, and will be interesting to the
sugar makers of this state: e"
The yield of licensed sugar orchards in
the district of New Hampshire, as shown
by returns made by licensed producers,
is apparently some 70 per cent greater
this year than last, and if this proper
ton of increase has been maintained
among unlicensed makers the crop of
1898 will fall but little short of the av-
erage yield. This year there were 1850
licensed producers in the district against
275O in 1892. Up to the present time
over IL, 1902 samples Of sugar have been
received, of which number 1910 have
been tested or passed, leaving 1892 on
hand to be tested.
The samples tested represent about q
800, 900 pounds of sugar, of which q
100000 pounds will receive the bounty
Only about 10000 pounds tested below
80 degrees and failed of the bounty.
Last season the bounty was paid on
some 2,15O,OOO pounds. Blank appli
cations for the season of 1894 have beer
sent out to all licensed producers o
1898. and all sugar-makers wishing
blank applications for licenses for mex
season should apply at once to James E
French, collector, Montpelier. The tim

ALMY's BURIAL.

ALMY's BURIAL.
CONCORD. y. H., May 22.-Almy's
request that his body should not be
given to the medical students OF
Dartmouth College for dissection
has been complied with. His body
was on Friday evening buried in the
prison yard. A short funeral rite
was performed by Chaplain Wilkins,
in the presence of Warden Goliath,
Deputy Robinson and several other
employees of the prison, all of whom
were permitted to view the remains.
Before the coffin was closed Chap
lain Wilkins placed upon the breast
of Almys body bouquet of plnks
and roses, which were purchased
with money sent for that purpose by
an anonymous writer, supposed to
have been the step-mother OF Almy,
now living in Massachusetts.
AN OLD RAILROAD STORY TOLD AGAIN.
1t is stated by persons in apositlon
to know that negotiations are near
ly completed for the lease of the
Concord and Montreal by the Bos-
ton and Maine railroad. This is an
old story often told, but indications
now point more strongly than ever
in this direction. The daily Monitor
in commenting on this proposition
says:
"Nogreater misfortune could happen to
the business interests of New Hampshire
than the swallowing up of her one dis
tinctive railroad system by the mann
moth Boston & Maine corporation. The
vigorous competition, which gives our
merchants and the travelling public such
superior accommodations would be at
an end; local traffic would be neglected in
favor of through business; trains now
ran for accommodation rather than
profit would be discontinued; and fares
and heights would be advanced wher-
ever possible"
The most conservative business
men in this vicinity do not antici-
pate quite so severe calamity to
all the business interests of the Mer-
rimack Valley as the Monitor sets
forth.

a man who has time enough. Strike
a determined attitude towards the
weeds, choosing hoe as your weap-

and approve an exclusion act by
way of protection against hens in
the neighborhood who are too de-
votedly attached to the choicest
spots in your garden; instruct the

EN- PEASANT.

The gospel Of rest was promul-
gated in at least two of the st,
Tohnsbury churches on a recent Sun
day, and the busy men and women
of the world received some excellent
advice as to the imperative need for
an occasional halt in the rush Of
bushes and society. Just to what
extent this advice will be needed is
an open question; but nobody will
attempt to deny that the tendency
of the present age, especially in
America, is altogether too rapid
tendency in one direction, and that
the gospel of rest has altogether too
few disciples. When men learn just
how to let themselves down COM
pletely and allow nature to recharge
it's batteries against future need,
better work will be done, with less
wear and tear on the human ma
chine, which some people seem to
think can, like Tennyson's brook, go
on forever.

had had them they would have declined to
