WORDS OF WISDOM.

SILENCE is one great art of conversation.
To pity distress is but human; to relieve IL
is God like.
What maintains one vice would Driug up
two children.
The. child must think inteiligently before
he can read intelligently.
He that redukes private fault openly, be-
trays it rather than reproves it.
No evil propensity of the human heart is so
powerful that it may not be subdued by dis
cipline.
He who has no opinion of his own, but de-
pends upon the opinion and taste of others, is
a slave.
Most of the noblest dispositions think
themselves happest when others share their
happiness with them.
Let men laugh when you sacrifice desire to
duty, if they will. You have time and eter-
nifty to rejoice in.
That man has got good start up the hill
Of know ledge, who can learn good lesson
from apother's experience.
There has never been wisdom enough in
the world to know how to help man who
does not try to help himself.
Oar friends should take the plainness of
enemies in accusing, and still mngle it with
| the tenderness and good affections of friends.
| Ev,ry day is little life, and our whole life
is but day repeated. Those, therefore, that
due lose day, are dangerously proliga;
those that dare misspend it, desperate.
Let this he thy purpose, . friend: TO OBJ
serve the law of right and do 1t. Then the
sunshine and the storm, the night and the day,
the heat and the cold of life's discipline will
foster and mature the grain for the garners in
the sky.
Female spiders are much larger and more
felocous than the IN. .les, and generally devour
| their husbands.

VIGILANT.

Nigilant! Visilant.
Born oflhe ocean,
Spirit of motion.
Sprung from the white foam,
Spread like a butterfly
When from her dark home
First she emerges,
Launched on the sunshine's
Tremulous surges;
Swaying, yet trusting,
Feeling the ether
Gracious beneath her.
Vigilant! Yisilant!
Thou art the fair one,
Thou art the rare one,
Stemming The tide, aslant
Now, like a cormorant,
Now gliding evenly
Like a dove messenger,
Swif as her wings can be,
White as the breast of her;
Bringing thy beauty,
And thy enhancing grace,
As a bright message
Back from the briny space
Where lies thy duty.
Vigilant, bright one,
VigiIant, light one!
Gracefully striving,
Gentle and brave;
Over the wave
Airily driving;
Wooing the wind
To thine own mind;
Catching whatever
There be ofthe sunlight,
Making thy run bright
With the endeavOr,
Vigilant, Vigilant,
Best do we prove thee,
Best do we love thee!

TELEPHONE IMPROVEMENTS.

lanes Menzies, representing the
New England Telephone Company,
has been here the past week, ar
ranging for some decided improve
ments in the telephone service in this
section, and the work has already
been begun, the force OF men being
looked after by w. F. Hunt. A new
pole line is to be built from Barnet
to Newport. and put up so as to
admit of metallic circuit. The
present ground wire between Brad
ford and Newport is to be doubled
and put into service as metallic
circuit. A new line is to be erected
from St. ohnsbury to North Con-
cord, and the line to Victory is also
to be improved. A new wire will be
run from st. Johnsbury to Barnet,
by way of relieving the now crowd
ed line between here and Peacham.
The reconstruction Of all these out
of-town lines is based on the idea Of
relieving the trunk lines, making
them as free as possible from inter
vening stations, and thus greatly
enhancing the facilities for quick and
easy communication A substantial
pole line is also to be established in
the village, which will be an appre-
cable change for the better. The
demand for telephone service is
constantly on the increase in wide
awake localities, and in devoting
so much time and effort to perfect
ing the system hereabouts the New
England Company are doing the
proper thing, and their work in
this direction will be appreciated by
all concerned.

ON THE DIAMOND.

The St. Johnsbury ball players have
been fairly busy the past week, though
luck has not been with them in every
game. On Thursday of last week the
Lyndonville team came down to cross
bats with the Academys on the campus,
and carried a victory home with them.
The home team was couple of men
short-that is, a couple OF their regular
hands-and when the game was finished
they were couple of runs short, The
score stood Ito 7 in favor of the visitors,
who surprised the crowd by the game
they put up.
On the same day the Village nine ran
against disaster at the capital of the
state, and were beaten by the Vermont
Methodist Seminary nine, IS to 8. 1t
should not have been so, and it did not
look so until very late in the game At
the end of the sixth inning the score
stood 8 to 0 in favor of St. ,Johnsbury
and at the close of the seventh Q to 2;
but the boys went to pieces then, errors
multiplied rapidly, and they went down
before the enemy in bad shape
The Academy nine tried their luck with
the Littletons on the campus here last
Saturday and won in score of 16 to 5
Patey and Bagey did the battery work
and most of the nine played good ball
having very little trouble in taking
victory from the visitors
The Victors, st. Johnsburv Juvenile
Club, defeated the Newport Junior team

The Burlington, University team ha,
been invited to participate in the bas,
ball tournament at Chicago this sum

similar invitation.

THE PENSION DRAIN.

If this unprecedented drain on the
treasury were necessary to pay the
just debt of the nation to its heroic
defenders and saviors, the tax,
though oppressive, would be cheer
fully borne. But when it is consider
ed that deserving veterans and their
families get but part, and perhaps
not the largest part of it, and that
much of it goes to fraudulent
claimants, skulkers and sharks, the
matter appears in the light of an
outrage, not only on the nation but
also on the large class justly
entitled to the bounty of the govern
ment.- IN. Y. Herald

A POPULAR WESTERN FASHION.

Cut rates to Chicago are very

TO ANNEX is PROPER.

If annexation shall be rejected,
civil war will almost inevitably fol-
low. Neither party will surrender
without a struggle, and there will
remain also the possibility of inter
ference by England or Germany. II
the United States did not annex the
islands either Of those powers might
claim the right to take them. But
the United States would, in that
event, interfere and insist upon Ha-

A DILEMMA

There is to be restoration of the
duty on sugar, tea and coffee on the
one hand, or a tax on incomes on
the other We doubt il congress
will impose the former. 1t would be
tax which would tall upon every
householder. An income tax would
fall only on restricted number; but
it would fall upon an influential
class, and a class that knows how
to make its influence potent. 1t is
rather distracting dilemma which
