The Sweet Tooth.

In most cases where we find consid- erable quantities of sugar conspicuously massed in any part of plant organism the sweet juice Is placed there on pur
 pose to be eaten. In comparatively small masses it is sorted in flowers or elsewhere for the use of insects. In larger amounts it is stored in fruits for the use uf birds and mammals. And 1t is these conspicuous storehouses of na
 tive sugar that man in the first instance began to seize upon for his own pur- poses. Himself descendant of the fruit eating monkeys, he has always re-
 mained to great extent fruit eater.
 In the tropics to this day he subsists largely upon plantains, bananas, man. goes, bread fruit and cocoanuts, though he also depends to no small degree upon subterranean storehouses of starch or sugar, such as yams and sweet potatoes. In temperate climates, on the other hand, he derives his food more from seeds than from fruits. Wheat, rye, maize, barley, oats, rice and millets form the staple of his diet, while his prin- cipal subterranean food, the potato, is starchy, not sugary. Accordingly his in herited sweet tooth feels the need for sugar-a need which he has endeavored from all time to satisfy, especially in youth, with dried fruits, figs, raisins and other like devices. s.-Cornhill Maga- zine. .-

Then and Now.

MT. Horr, of the New York Tribune, in his campaign speeches, illustrates the diff ference of the "then and now" by con- pairing the years of 1899 and 1894. Mr. Horr is sure that his experience has taught him that the "then was much better than the now" When we had the then work was plenty and good wages. Our mills were crowded with orders. Then no man was idle for the want of something to do, then every steam chimney in the land was smoking, every loom in New England was shedding its cloth, the laboring classes were all prosperous and happy, merchants were busy and skilled labor at a premium.
 Then deposits in our savings banks were increasing, now being rapidly withdrawn; :; then thousands of miles of railroads were being built, now dividends are being de- faulted; then the farmer and wool grower were prosperous, now wonderfully de- pressed Surely the great need of the country is more of the then and much less of the now.
 On November 9th the great pendulum of public opinion will begin to swing back to its normal condition, the scales of jus tice will begin to even up, and the masses will make grand effort to fright up" the ship of state. Every voter who is in favor of good government and protection should see to 1t that his ballot finds place in the box on that day. H.E.o c.

 THE annual meeting of the Stafford Springs, Agricultural Society was held last Saturday. The following officers were elected: President, E. c. Dennis; e-presidents, M. P.J. Walker, c. Hall, Jr., w.

A communica- tion was read by Geo. D. Colburn from his colleague on the committee of farm products, Prof. Chamberlin, of Manifold. in which, while highly complimenting the fair in it's management as compared with other fairs, he suggested some changes in arrangement of articles on exhibition in such way as to tighten the labors of committees and add to the pleasure and convenience of visitors, the chief change suggested being the arrangement of each product in groups, instead of placing each exhibitors articles in mass by them- selves. His suggestions were good ones, and the expressions heard were of ap- proval. The treasurer's report showed the receipts of the fair of 1894 to be as

State Politics.

The contest for the sheriff office will be a hot one. Each candidate will run we'll in his own town. Democrats are count ing upon votes from republicans who are disappointed because the nomination did not come to Stafford, but this is not like ly to be the case. Those most interested in MT. Fisk's nomination were those who are apt to pull true. Nevertheless MT. Pinney will lead his ticket in Stafford, as MT. Dickinson will his in Vernon.
 The result in the congressional fight looks promising for MT. Henry MT. Sperry, who voted for the German bill, is expected to get votes because he did not vote for the Wilson bill. On the other hand he will lose votes from democrats of protection leanings who prefer congress- man who will not support a free trade speaker, and the consequent creation of working committees in congress in which free traders shall predominate. MT. Will son and President Cleveland have said that the German bill is only the beginning of tariff reform legislation. Republicans are claiming that Connecticut will elect four republican congressman next Tues day. This Is claiming a great deal. It was never harder to make a political fore cast. So many voters are thinking, but saying little. It will be safer to count the votes after they are cast.
 The republicans of Vernon have nomi- mated for representatives John E. Fahey of Rockville and Horace G. Talcott of Talcottville.
 W. F. Essex is the republican nominee for judge of probate in the Holland dis trict, and Judge w. D. Holman is the democratic candidate.
