crows up weak and puny. In these days
when artificial food is being SO generally re-

many foods for which great claims are
made. Gustav MelliD, an English chemist,
was the first to discover and combine the

fcial food, and with his discovery the
s7ional feeding of infants commenced.
Mellins Food is the only perfect substitute

make babies strong and healthy than any
thing else that has ever been invented.

WITHDRAWALS OF DEPOSITS.

During the months of july and
August, 1893, when the great finan-
cial panic was at its height,when bank
failures were numerous from day Ia
day and runs upon savings banks and
other banks were going on in nearly
all the states. the savings banks and
trust companies Of this state were able
to meet the demands upon them, and
without requiring notice Of contem-
plated Withdrawals, excepting ia few
eases.
During these two months last year,

ies paid out in Withdrawals. in excess

1894. this amount had not only been
fully recovered. but an additional
amount Of s703. 925.77 had been de-
posted, showing that confidence in
our banks had been fully restored and
that an increase in deposits was again
going steadily ON.
Complaint has been made in the
past by the officers of some of the
banks a. the restrictions now provid-
ed BY law concerning the securities i'm
which they are allowed to invest.
Nearly 10 years of experience under il,
some Of which have been anxious ones

in that respect has been a wise one,
and that had our banks been free to

would have been far greater than they

The depositors in the savings banks
have been credited with interest ON
their deposits for the year amounting
to $500, 092. an increase Of $40, $50
80 over last year, II banks having paid
4 per cent, and 4 - per eent.to their
depositors.
Sixteen trust companies paid an
average Of a little less than l-3 per
cent on their capital stock
Two trust companies did not pay
dividends 10 their stockholders the
past year.
This is the first year in 10 that there
has not been a large increase IN mort
cages out of the state. This is ac-
counted for largely by the financial
disturbances Of the past year, the dis
trust of Western securities and the
previous suspension Of many OF the
firms and loan companies with which
the banks had in previous years tram
Sacted this class of business. and whose
worthless guarantees they now hold in
some cases, more than by actual d.
rect losses from legitimate farm or
town loan business IN good sections of
the West.
Our savings bank officers are now
much more cautious and conservative
in taking all kinds Of loans, and. so
far as can learn, are investing in
mortgages or other securities, else
where than in Vermont, only when it
is necessary TO employ idle moneys and
then only in the most desirable locali-
ties after much more care as to Local
ton and a more critical examination
than ever before of everything relating
to each particular loan.
Several banks now have annual eN-
made of many OF their
Western loans, by one or more of their
officers. This seems 10 me very de-
sirable.

SMITH WAS MODEST.
Took Only Fifty Thousand Postage
Stamps from the Govern
ment at One Time.

WAsHINGToN. Oct. William B.
Smith. Of Elizabeth, N. j., aged 80
years, an employe of the Bureau of
Engraving and Printing, was arrested
here at 8 o'clock this afternoon by An
drew McWilliams, chief clerk of the
secret service, for stealing 50. 900 2 cent
postage stamps from the bureau. Mr..
Smith was appointed three months
ago to suborate position in
the treasury department and as
signed to work in the bureau
of engraving and printing. In his
position he helped to mail packages Of
postage stamps and fill orders Of postal
master. On Sept. 20 last he was given
an order to fill from the postmaster at
Ionia. Mich. The order called for two
packages of two cent postage stamps
Of 10000 each. Smith put up only one
package instead Of two although he
took two packages Of fifty thousand
stamps each, secreting the other about
his person.
On last Saturday the postmaster at
Ionia, Mich. informed the proper Off
ciAls here that only one package of
$4,000 stamps had been received by
him although he had ordered two pack
ages 80 900. The postoffics authorities
and bureau of engraving officials could
not account for the discrepancy as
their books were all right.
They placed the matter in the hands
of Mr.. McWillams at 1 O'Clock this
afternoon and at 8 o'clock Mr.. Smith
was behind the bars and $50 worth of
the stamps he had stolen had been re-
covered in one plase. and smaller guam.
titles found at two other places The
secret service officers believe that
Smith had a confederate and expect
soon to effect his arrest. The theory
is that Smith, after he stole the stamps.
by means Of confedsrates got rid of
them at various places about the city.
Smith, by direction of Secretary
Carlisle. was summarily dismissed
from the servic, of the treasury late
this afternoon. Fears are expressed
that other packages of postage stamps
may be found missing, and the rob.
berry may be more extensive than now
appears. Postmasters will be asked to
report if all orders for stamps made by
them recently have been filled.
