Old age--the picture that springs to every
ones minds an aggregation of intirmities.
Men and women are growing old before
their time
The work and worry OF to-day plHnges us
into an old age early many die of old age
at 20 instead OF 70, and the causes that oc-
casion this premature old age bring exsg-
gerated dotage, melancholy and often insa-
nifty. While old age is thus associated with
rheumatism, govt. and various morbid con
ditions it is nevertheless possible to have an
old age free from them, and. as Sir James
Brown says in the British Medical journal,
ito run tho course to the century goal with
out being complicated by any OF the senile
infirmites enumerated
These infrmities, regarded as maladios of
old age, are not essential to it, but duo to
overweight nervous systems and blood
that fails to noursh the nerve centres.

requisite of restored health, perfect sleep

THE STREET RAILWAY.
Mayor IIaselton vetoss the Hesolution
Adopted by the Aldermen.

Mayor JIaselton Vstoss the Resolution
Adopted by the Aldermen.
Mayor Hsseltou has flled with the city
clerk his veto of tho resolution adopted at
the last meeting Of the Board OF Aldermen,
fixing the terms on which the street railway
company may change their motive power
to electricity. 1t is as follows
BURLINGTON, VT, May 16, 1903.
To the Honorable the Board Of Alder
men.
herewith return without my approval
the resolution relating to the Winooski and
Burlington Horse Railroad company, adopt
ed May 5, 1893. My reasons for this &C
ton are as follows:
First-Tbat said resolution gives the said
company rights to and over the Winooski
bridge so-called; although the power of the
city to give such rights does not extend be-
yond that portion of the bridge which Is
situated within the limits of the city.
Secondly-That said resolution does not
clearly provide that, independently of any
action of the street commissioners, the said
company shall be under the same obliga-
tious with respect to Gearing its tracks in
Church street OF snow and ice that it is un-
der in respect to the other streets through
which its track runs
Thirdly-That said resolution does not
clearly provide that the arrangement made
in section / thereof, with respect to the re
moval Of excessive snow from Church
street, shall apply to the entire width Of
that portion Of Church street through
which the track of said company passes.
Fourthy-1hat said resolution provides
for IA change in the location of the rails Of
said company's track at the instance OF the
city only when ordered by "two-thirds
vote of the City Council There can be,
in respect to this matter, no such thing as a
wo-thirds vote OF the City Council, since in
considering it the mayor cannot sit with the
Board of Aldermen. What the resolution
probably means is-a two-thirds vote of the
Board Of Aldermen approved by the mayor
but il seems unnecessary TO thus restrict
or attempt TO restrict the action of the city
government in the future
Fifthly-That said resolution does not re-
serve to the CITY Council the designation OF
the kind OF rails TO be used on Church street.
| Slxthly-That said resolution does not re-
serve to the City Council tae power in it,
| discretion to reguiat, the running time OF
cars in any streets, nor the power to desig
nat' the places at which cars may be stopped
for the purposes of tIking on and letting oil
passengers.
Seventh THAT said resolution deprives
the city OF the right to require any change
in the tsrms of the arrangement with the
company for q period Of 20 years. This
term seems longer than the interests of tue
city can wisely permit, particularly in vie W
OF tue fact that the company enters into nc
agreement with respect to the extension OF
its line southwark.

THE STREET RAILWAY.

Mayor Hase!tons veto of the street rail
road resolution was laid on the table by a
yea and nay vote of 3 to l Alderman
Burke voting nay in order that another
resolution might be introduced. Mr..
Powers said that the company was ready to
coucede all the objections raised by the
mayor with the exception OF the 90 year
clause. A resolution covering Mayor Hasel
tons objections, with the exception of the
20-year clause, was thereupon introduced
aud adopted, Alderman Burke alone voting
nay. Mr.. Burke said that Mr.. Powers
ought to agree to extend the road south and
build up that section OF the city. The Pearl
street. line was a gilt edge franchise. Mr.
Burke sud he was a Burlington and in
the interest OF Burlington he should oppose
any resolution which did not provide for an
extsntion of the line to the south, as that
was the direction in which the city must
grow. Mr.. Burke was also opposed to the
2O-year clause and pictured the predicainent
the city might find itself in at that time.
