Don Sanders commenced a years
engagement with H. j. Dwinell on
Monday. Don is quick, willing, and
pleasant, and successful pharmacist

cordance with the bylaws is to be
held the last Thursday of March.

Remarking about tenements, where
are there any vacant ones in the cor
poration? Who has built house
with the purpose of renting without
it's being spoken for a long way in
advance of completion? When has
there been a season of more building
than the coming season promises to
be? No, thank you Morrisville has
no busted boom to let and no unoc-
cupied buildings to auction off to any
of our neighboring towns.
c. F. Smith has sold to C. I. Hood
of Lowell, Mass, the 5-year-old Jer-
sey COW, Celestine, which is aunt to
Brown Bess, who took the sweep
stakes over all breeds at the Worlds
Fair last year. Celestine made 465
pounds of butter in 1898, with the
same feed and care as the others re-
ceived. Under Mr.. Hoods manage
ment she will make a large record.
Mr.. Smith also sold him 2-year- old,
Pamela, granddaughter of the old
Duke of Darlington.
Maple syrup is said to have taken
an upward Jump in the MorrisvilIe
market last week. In fact little of
it cost two of our worthy citizens up
wards of $14 apiece. Whew what a
price for maple product; but then it
was paying for a lot of fun as well as
the product. Alderman A. Fremont |
Bowen of the Brookly side, and that |
bloated bond-holder, "Shorty" Aims |
worth. don't mind the expense, how
ever, and $14 a gallon for maple
honey is of little account to them.
They simply drew their check with a
smile and went back to the busy cares
Of public life. The fact is, the afore-
'aid gentlemen went up to Myron
Spaulding's one dark night, helped
themselves to syrup, were tracked in
he light snow by Mr.. Spaulding, ar
ested, and fined $14.51 each.
