FROM FATHER TO SON.

The recent action of the senate on
the sugar schedule of the tariff bill
was a great thing for the trust, and
the trust is correspondingly happy.
The effect on the political reputa ton
of one or two of the senators, how
ever, is not likely to be so pleasant.
Senator Mcpherson of New Jersey
had, according to his own confession,
been dealing in sugar stocks, but
righteously concluded to get rid OF
that sort of collateral when he found
that sugar was to be extensively
legislated on by the body of which he
is member.
The peculiar part of the transac-
ton, however, is the direction in
which be unloaded. He transferred
the stocks to his son, taking pains
to keep the business in the family.
lust how much freer the senator
thought this would leave him to act
in an unbiased" manner when the
sugar schedule came up for dis
cussion, is not quite clear. It looks
very much like distinction without
any difference. Senator Mcpherson
may feel the results Of his indiscre-
ton later on. The temptation,
under such circumstances, to legis-
late towards ones own interests is
fairly strong, but no congressman
can afford to be led into that kind
of hole.

GROTON.
Death of Mrs. L. II. stoweu.

The death OF Mrs. LOvenia H. Stowell
deserves more than a passing notice
| because of her extended acquaintance
and of her Christian traits, giving her
| a salutary influence for all that was
good and pure in the communities in
which she has lived. Lovenia Hatch
was born in Groton in Oct. 1919, the
eldest daughter and child of Jacob and
Sally Morrison Hatch. She was mar
ried to Silas Burnham, Esq. at the age
of 81 years. Mr.. Burnham was we'll
known contractor and builder, and built
for himself a residence in Peacham and
during his residence there his wife was
beloved by all because she always
abOunded in good works, exhibiting
charity toward all, by covering their
faults and extoling their virtues in
manner. Although great sufferer ply
sically for many years, such was her un-
complaining life, and her home was so
bright and cheerful, it was made the
social center of the neighborhood; and
her words OF Christian cheer and SYM
pathetic council and solace made many
a heart glad, that was burdened in like
manner. Her second husband was
Leander H. StOwell who passed away
some Is years ago. Since the death of
Mr.. StOwell she has taken motherlv
and kindly interest in the family of her
niece Mrs. Lyman Blanchard, with
whom she arranged a fife lease of her
pretty and comfortable home in Groton,
built by her first husband after their re-
moval from Peacham some SO years ago.
The greatest immediate loss will fall
upan this family consisting of father and
mother and three sons and three
daughters. The community, too, will
miss the kindly face that always greeted
with so much cheer. The church of
which Mrs. Stowell was a member will
miss this noble Christian lady.

Il CHILD'S QUEER TASTE.

A Maine paper tells a strange
story of a little child which seems to
have been born with liking for to-
bacco. When only baby it seemed
much pleased fit could get where it
could get the smoke of tobacco.
When four months old the preco-
cious child had a pipe first in its
mouth and pulled at it like a veter-
an smoker without making it sick.
After this it pinned away as the pipe
was taken from it, but by the ad-
vice of the doctor the pipe was
restored, and the little one smokes
three times day. The parents
Of this remarkable child live in

would be a matter of interest to
know whether either or both of them
is addicted to the use Of tobacco.
The transmission of new tastes is a
matter of common observat ton.
Forty years ago no one liked the
tomato except after a long trial.
Now many young children like to-
matoes, either raw or cooked, the
first time they taste them.-[ Ex-
