Where mothers milk is defective or in
sufficient in nourishing quality, lactated
food best supplies the need; for lactated
food most closely resembles mothers
milk. The basis is sugar of milk in both
cases.
Whenever baby's weight fails to show
a steady increase the nutrition is for
some reason imperfect. Lactated food
at these times should be used altogether
or to supplement the natural milk. In
all such cases there results a rapid gain
in weight and indications on every hand
of healthier, liYelier, more hearty ex-
istence.
The efficacy and nutritive quality of
lactated food is to-day acknowledged by
every one.
AS preventive of cholera infantum it
is worth more than all the medicines in
the world.
AS strength-giver to growing infants
nothing can compare with it. AS food
that is easy to procure and prepare, and
is liked by the little ones themselves, too
much cannot be said for it.
1t has saved the lives of thousands of
infants within the last few years. 1t has
been the food of hundreds of babie s who
have never been sick. Above is the pic
ture of the one-year old child of Mrs.
Edward Newcom of Logansport, Ind,
which was received the other day, ac-
companied by the following letter from
Mrs. Newcom:
Our baby had to use artificial food
on account of no nurse. We tried sew
eral different kinds of infant foods, but
none agreed with him until we COM
menced the use. of lactated food. Now
he is perfectly healthy. We are still
using the food and recommend it to all
our friends"
This Is the experience of hundreds of
mothers in this vicinity and will be the
experience of HUNDREDS more.

The Yale representatives were defeated
by those of Oxford at West Kensington,
England, Monday, in the first internation-
al college athletic contest ever held. There
were eight events, of which Oxford won
five, Yale three, with one tie. The Eng
lshmen evidently excelled in fieetness of
foot and the Americans in muscular devel-
Opment, as Oxford won the hurdle and
four running races. In throwing the ham
mer and putting the shot Hckock and
Brown of Yale outclassed their opponents.
L. P. Sheldon, Rutland boy, won the
broad jump for Yale, and furnished the
surprise of the day by covering % feet and
IL inches, within fraction of an inch of
the intercollegiate record. Sheldon also
tied Swanwick of Oxford in the high jump.

Business circles are interested in the
bill which passed the House committee on
judiciary Friday providing that all con-
tracts hereafter executed for the payment
of any sum of money, whether in gold,
silver or coin, may be discharged by any
money which is by law a legal tender for
the payment of debts. The author of the
measure, Mr.. Lane of Illinois, explains
that it is intended to regulate the practice
in the federal courts in regard to entering
judgments and to preserve the stability
and uniformity of the currency.
A different view of this question is
taken by the Republicans of the commit
tee, all of whom, except Representative
Broderck of Kansas, voted against the
bill. Representative w. A. Stone of Penn
sylvania says that the success of such a
measure would be a menace to the very
foundations of business. Particularly
would it be disastrous to foreign dealings
and to commercial paper. Most of the
bonds of municipalities, states and corpor-
ations, he said, are payable in gold coin,
and under such law there would be no
safeguards to prevent lenders of money,
either individuals or organizations, from
being paid in a deprecated currency.

The Vermont Press Association's EX-
cursiOn.

The Vermont Press Associations EN-
cursion.
The broad expanses and magnificent dis
tances of Lake Champlain and the wealth
of scenic beauty from its surface were a rev.
elation to many of the 200 people who left
Burlington the morning of the 18th on the
annual excursion of the Vermont Press as
sociation. Among the party were 2S mem
bers of the New England Woman's Press
association. Crossing the lake the steamer
Reindeer was turned northward, and at
noon Isle La Motto was reached. Here
Mr.. and Mrs. Nelson w. Fiske threw open
their home to the party. The rain inter-
fered with the plan of serving lunch on the
lawn, but the house and piazzas proved
ample for the accommodation of the party.
The afternoon was spent in boat ride
among the green islands of the lake, turn
ing southwark in time to reach the Hotel
Champlain at Bluff Point on the New York
shore south of Plattsburg at o'clock.
This hotel is one of the most luxurious in
the country, with spacious grounds, and
Il
scape Of great beauty is seen.
Nothing was found wanting in the cuisine
and service of the hotel at the dinner which
was served. In the evening a delightful
program was rendered in the parlor of the
hotel Songs by Madame Clara E. Smart
and Miss Elizabeth Hamlin of Boston,
recitations by Miss Sara NJ. Weeks of st.
| Adams and Miss Mamie Tobin of Swanton,
readings by Miss Helen Winslow of Boston,
impersonations by John Burgess Weeks, a
St. AlbaEs boy who is a member of the
| Otis Skinner company; a piano solo 10y
| Miss Mary +. butcher of st. Adams, and
! an address by Mrs. Sallie Joy White OF
Boston "a Brattleboro girD, which was brist
ling with good points. Mrs. White spoke
of the fact that of the three presidents of the
New England Woman's Press association
two were Vermont girls, Miss Winslow and
herself, and in closing paid warm tribute
to the true, loyal men of the newspaper
profession.
The next morning after breakfast the
party regretfully said goodbye to Manager
Seavey of the hotel, and again embarked
on the Reindeer. Landing at Port Kent
cars were taken to Au Sable chasm, five
miles distant. At the head of the chasn
the water leaps over fall and then runs
a rapid course for two miles through ;
channel which the erosion of years has Gu
to a depth of 100 to $50 feet in the sole
rock. & Back to Port Kent by rail, and t.
Burlington by boat, with lunch on the boat
completed the journey.

On the evening of the prorogation of
the Canadian parliament resolution was
passed granting over 100000 subsidy
to the railway companies of the dominion,
for roads in course of construction or to be
constructed. The average amount to be
paid is $3200 a mile. The government is
seriously censured for delaying these reso-
lutions until the last moment for the pur-
pose of rushing them through after one
half the members had left for their homes.

The future of the electric railroad is fore
shadowed in the charter which has been
granted under the laws of New Jersey to
company which proposes to connect New
York and Philadelphia The syndicate
will have a capital of S1O,OO0OOO, and the
scheme will embrace about $50 miles of
road including several city systems already
in operation. 1t is estimated that the road
will have the patronage of 100000, and
freight and merchandise will also be trans
ported. Power for a large part of the sys-
TEN will be secured from the falls of the

Arbitration is the only satisfactory way
of settling International complications, and
it is the hope of the future intlashings be-
tween capital and labor. The great Eng
lish coal strike is perhaps the most notable
instance in which its beneficial effect has
been felt. In a more recent case an ami
cable conclusion has been reached in New
Jersey. The pottery employees at Trenton
struck six months ago on account of a pro-
posed cut of 25 to 40 per cent in their
wages. When the manufacturers came 10
Washington to protest against a reduction
of tariff on foreign pottery Senator Smith
refused to intervene for them until they
had agreed to make concessions to their
men. His action led to conference of
representatives of both parties. Senator
Smith acted as arbitrator. The result was
the agreement for a renewal of work at a
reduction of 124 per cent in wages.

The announcement of the death at
Orange, N. j., last Friday of George Gra-
ham, the pioneer of magazine literature in
this country, is only another indication of
the rapid progress of the present generation,
when one stops to consider the multiplicity
of magazines today, and their high standard
as regards literary merit and typographical
execution. Mr.. Graham founded the
magazine which bore his name. His
venture was very successful, and he accu-
muated fortune of S1,OO0,000. 1t is sad
to record that he afterward lost his entire
fortune, and that he was buried by the
charity of the journalistic profession.
