HANGING CUSHION FOR BONNET PINS.
neatly as possible. Now fill this cylin.
der with curled hair and let it come
out beyond the ends about two inches
in round mass.
You will need ribbon for covering
these ends of some pretty tint that will
combine well with the shade of velvet
that you use. The ribbon must be 8
inches wide and 10 inches long. Cut
two pieces of this length, sew the ends
of each together and gather one side of
each piece of ribbon and slip it over the
curled hair at each end, drawing up
the gathering string to fit snugly over
the velvet cylinder and sew it with fine
stitches. Then gather the other side of
the ribbon and draw it up SO that the
gathers will all meet in the center. A
bow Of ribbon with ends may be placed
here to cover up the stitches or cord
and tassels made from the worsted. An
other cord and tassels is used to hang
it by, or ribbon should be used for this
purpose if it is used at the sides
The cord is made by taking several
strands of worsted, a little more than
twice as long as you will require it,
and with the aid Of another person twist
it, each twisting in opposite direction
from the other. 1t should be doubled
over when it begins to kink by placing
the two ends together and running the
hand up and down the cord quickly.
The tassels can be made from worsted,
wound over card inches long. When
it is large enough, slip from the card
and tie with piece of worsted to form
the head and cut the other end to form
the tassel.

mutton leg sleeve has taken to drapery.
Ribbon and lace are employed to make
fancy sleeves, which are useful to freshen
up an old gown for house wear. The
large puff at the top can be of lace, and
over this are straps of black satin rib
bon caught in above the elbow with q
twist of ribbon. The puffs at the elbow
may be of satin or velvet. A pretty
sleeve for summer silks is full to the
cuff, and over this is wide fall of lace.
The full epaulets of silk are bound on the
edge with velvet, and underneath this is
wire to make the plaits stand out
AsSther style which gives the long effect
- the shoulder has one puff, double
frill at the elbow, and plain cap ar

YOUR PALATE is
YOUR STOMACH'S CONSCIENCE.
Fats, Oils and Grease make Thin
People Thinner.

Thin people are thin because the food they eat
doesn't make them fat. Reasons-wrong food;
right food ill-digested.
Fats, oils and grease will not mako anybody
fat. They keep fat person fat but they make
thin people grow thinner The reason is because
they are indigestble. The thin person finds it
harder still for him.
Doctors forbid dyspepdcs food cooked in
grease, yet they will prescribe full dose OF cod
liver oil three times day. The best doctors
know that cod liver oil is just indigestible as
any other oil or grease. They prescribe Paskola'
Pre-digested food, instead.
Have you ever noticed that almost without ex-
ception, thin, pale. dyspeptie, an@mic people
have an aversion to fat! That is proof enough
that it is bad for them.
Your palate is your stomach's conscience.
Your stomach knows what is good for you.
Starch food is the food we need most Of. Starch
food makes us fat Pre-digested starch food will
make us fat when ordinary starch food won't.
Paskola is pre.digested starch food. 1t agrees
with the weakest stomach. 1t helps the weak
stomach to digest other food. It is fattening and
invigorating.
Nothing but starch food will ever make you fat.
The starch food that will make you fattest is
Paskola.

have derived more benefit from two-thirds of a
bottle of 'Paskola' than from all the medicine
have used in the past six months"

Those Farms AuaIn,

The truth of the matter is that the ru-
raj districts of New England have under
gone an evolution. The west has been
able to render the cultivation of cereals
Improbable on eastern farms. The
wheat grower of New England has, in
deed, abandoned his occupation, but his
place has been taken by the market
gardener, the dairyman and the raiser of
fine stock, and with the best results.
Large cities are constant consumers of
vegetables, flowers, roots, fruits and hun
dreds of products which the distant farm
can never satisfactorily supply. Besides
this, the farm lands of New England
have become valuable for another pur-
pose. 1t is not the metropolitan resi-
dent alone who wants villas and country
homes and has the money to pay for
them, every prosperous city in the north
adds its contingent to the demand. The
metamorphosis of the New England
farm, therefore, far from being a sign of
decay, is an evidence of growth and in
creasing prosperity among the people in
that section of the country. and

National Guard Notes.

The annual inspection of Company K
Vermont National Guard, occurs here
Thursday, and the company expects to
turn out with full ranks. The inspec-
tor will be Capt. II. E. Tutherly, 1st. IT,
S. Cavalry, who is now on duty at Bur-
lingtOn. Others of the officers of the
Guard are expected to be present.
More than usual interest attaches TO this
inspection from the fact that at this
time four members of the company are
to be selected to represent it at the com
ing rifle competitor at Fort Ethan Allen,
near Burlington, by each company in
the Guard, and from which State team
is to be selected. The success of this
competition is already assured. and much
interest has been excited among the
members of every company, and there is
considerable rivalry as to who shall be
the fortunate ones. Two medals have
already been offered for the two mem
bers of the State team making the high
est scores at 200, 300 and 500 yards, one
by His Honor, Mayor Van Patten of
Burlington, and one by DR.. o. w. Peck.

Col. c. c. Kinsman, commanding the
Regiment National Guard, has been de-
tailed to take charge of the target con-
test at Fort Ethan Allen.
Cal. E. w. Jewett of Swanton, has also
offered third medal as a prize, and a
cup will also be provided for the team
shooting.

The Lieutenant Governor.

If, as conceded, a good man is re-
quired for the Office of governor in this
State, the second place on the ticket
should be ably filled. This official pre-
sides over the deliberations of the Sen
ate, and in the event of the death of the
executive succeeds him. We have thus
far refrained from taking sides in the
contest for the lieutenant-governor, hop
ing that the East side" would amicably
agree upon some one to present to the
Republican convention. which meets at
Montpelier the 20vh inst, but there ap-
pears to be no hope of such an agree
ment. The leading candidates are Col.
u. NJ. Mansur of Island Pond, and Homer
w. Vail of Pomfret. Two worthy gen
tlemen of Caledonia county are men
toned, Messrs. Bates and Lincoln, but
they are handicapped at the outset be-
cause of divided constituency.
We are in favor of Col. Mansur. His
campaign has been managed with dig
nifty becoming the high and honorable
place. On the other hand, Mr.. Wallis
supporters are STOPPING to rank dema-
gogery in the canvass. His newspapers
are shrieking that "the farmers are os-
tracised," when it Is only one term ago
that ex-Lieut. Gov. Fletcher, farmer,
was the farmer candidate, was elected
whence then is the foundation for the
argument that the farmers have not had
any recognition fol- years? And, again,
Mr.. Wallis workers are going about but
tonholing people, and using the same
miserable class doctrines against Col,
Manser, that has turned some sections
of the West into battlefields of anarchy
and riot. Should these prove successful,
next time, we shall have people shouting
for "labor candidate" "a lawyer can
didate," etc. Wherein would the cleo
ton of Mr.. Vail benefit the farmer more
than that of Col. Manser? We oppose,
and shall always do so, any man or his
workers. who banks, for political prefer
ment, upon class prejudice. We are told
that Col. Mansur is chronic office-hold-
er. Well, what of it? He has been
States attorney of his county, fown rep
resentative and senator. How many
more offices he has acceptably filled we
are not informed; but what Of Mr.. VailP
He has, also, been town representative
and senator, besides has held the per-
quisite of member of the Board of Ag-
riculture twelve years. But we do not
object to this. We do object to the in
PRODUCTION of Populism into the ante
convention politics of Republican Yer
mont. Let merit win. Col. Mansur
does not need, nor does he allow, the in
vocation of class prejudice to give him
the nomination and election-hence we
support his candidacy and advise our
readers to do likewise.
