The Beautiful Observance of Memorial
Day.

The observance of Memorial day was in
every respect admirable and satisfactory.
The day was fine and the attendance large.
The procession, headed by the Bellows
Falls band, proceeded first to the village
cemetery, where the Grand Army men,
some 80 in number, conducted the tender
memorial service of the order. The chill
dren of the public schools carried to the
fag-marked graves the beautiful floral of
ferings, and then the line, composed of
Vermont Academy cadets, Grand Army
men and citizens, proceeded to Fuller hall,
The large audience was favored with mu
sic by the band, and also by choir com
posed of members of the village chOirs,
led by Mr. Kimball. The Vermont Acad-
envy male quartet gave a beautiful selec-
ton. Hon. j. L. Martin of Brattleboro
delivered the address, which was listened
to with eager interest and often with tear
full emotions throughout. All in all, the
occasion was one of rare and precious in
terest.

nearly all are familiar with the ability OF
each musician. Although Mrs. Booth was
suffering from a very severe cold, she took
B fiat with ease and in her duet with Miss
Ranville her voice was very pleasing. Miss
Ranville is one of the under graduates of

No advertiser has ever made a great
success by using the country press un-
less he made yearly contracts. On
yearly contracts the country press is by
Jar the cheapest advertising medium
Whenever Il business to be advanced
oy advertising is of kind which may
oe equally benefited by publicity at
any season, then advertising contracts
should be made by the year. Es-
pecially is this true in all but the very
highest priced papers; and in many of
these the same is true. In papers of
average circulation and cost the price
for an advertisement a single week is
more than half the charge for month;
for month more than half as much as
for three, and for three months nearly
half as much as for full year. Not
withstanding all this, beginners cannot
as a rule make contracts for more than
few weeks or months while they are
experimenting, consequently must
pay the higher cost for short time or
ders.
He who would become a successful
advertiser must keep out of his mind
two ideas which are very prevalent;
First: he..must not think because a
paper has very small circulation that
it is of no value as an advertising me-
dunn. Second: he must not think be-
cause paper has very large circuIa-
tiou that too great price cannot be de-
manded.-PfiRter's Ink

POpular Stones for JeMelrK.

Through all changes, when every
stone seems to have its day, the dia-
mond stands alone, incompatible. In
these days stones are brought into
prominence to meet the demand for
variety. and such stones as the ame.
thyst, the aquamarine, the chryso.
beryl, the golden carnelian and many
other stones known as semi-precious
are SO wonderfully cut and set as to
greatly increase their intrinsic value.
These stones are very fashionable
Just at present, set in the form of col
lar and girdle. The turquoise has been
more universally adopted in recent
years than any other stone. The great
est number. and some of the most
beautiful, have of late years been
found in our own country. During
the last three years S400, 900 worth of
American turquoises have been used.
And the opal-that exquisite stone
with its fairy light dancing over its
delicate surfsce-just now it is finding
its reward after many years of pref
udice. Indeed, so far has the old SUI
perstition regarding this stone been
removed that it has become, when set
in diamonds, one of the chosen stones
for the engagement ring, and the wo-
man who can claim among her associ-
ates the most beautiful opal is to be
enyied, not pitied. Jewellers Circu-

A Rings Own Story.

Picking up from the sidewalk the
other morning what happened to be a
gold ring, with empty claws showing
the removal of stone, tine finder TOOK
it to jeweler in Eleventh street for
inspection, He examined it for a few
minutes under magnifying glass and
said: Eyes, this is gold ring of four
teen carats. The stone it contained
was three-carat diamond. 1t Was
worn a number of years on slender
woman's third finger. Then it
changed hands and was enlarged by
the insertion of piece of gold of in
ferior alloy, and may have been worn
on the third finger of stout woman
or the little finger of man. The
diamond was removed by a clumsy
hand, probably by thief, who either
accidentally dropped the ring or
threw it away where you found it. 1
never saw the ring before, but plainly
read its history by the same process
of observation, analysis and deduction
that an Indian unconsciously employs
in detecting the testimony of forest
trail. ."--Philadelphia Record.

sIn nfhdr,rc,ng Years.

.Do YOU know the surest indication
of cd age?" asked DR.. Reed OF num-
Der of friends at the Lindell. Inc
surest indications in man" he con-
tinued, ''are moist eye, dry palm ana
a shriakage of the calf of the leg
All these indications are due to some
action Of the nerves consequent upon
advancing years. In the matter OF
the eye, the fifth section is interfered
with. and it is this which causes a
flow of water. The dryness OF the
palm is produced by an interference
with the functions of the body, also
due to the action of the nerves, and
the shriukage of the leg follows
from similar causes. In old age, too'
You notice some men become more
corpulent than in the earlier portions
of their lives. With drinking men
the charge is often produced by the
quantity of saccharine, which they
consume with their drink, and, with
those who do not drink, it follows
from other physiological changes. AS
to the hair becoming gray, 1t results,
in the majority Of cases, from the
partial closing of the hair cells ana
the reduction of the quantity or nat
ural coloring matter which the clos
ing produces. With women The dim
ness of the eye does not come so soon
as it does in men,"

The American Ak.

AL the world admires and wonders
at the American ak helve. The
American ak fitted with that ingeni-
ously curved and gracefully fashioned
handle is a marvelOusly effective
weapon, vastly more apt for its pur-
poses than the straight-handlcd
headsman's AK with which the Ital-
ian fells trees, or the broad-faced
hatcnet used for the same purpose in
France, The American ak helve is
just what might have been expected
of an inventive people laden with the
duty Of conquering and civilIzing Il
forest-clad continent. The world has
been using the ak since prehistoric
times, but it remained for the Ameri-
can pioneer to fashion the ideal AK
handle, at once light, strong and elias
tic. The ak such as is familiar to all
Americans is rare in Europe, and it
sells in all the British colonies as the

own to help while away time on board

raphy. Other make a speciality of
something Immediately in the line of
their profession. Many collect ar;c-a-

are for the most part inexpensive, and
sometimes they are profitable. One
