There is no medicine so often needed in
every home and so admirably adapted to
the purpose for which it is intended, as
Chamberlain's Pain Balm. Hardly week
passes but some member of the family has
need of il. A tOOthache or headache may
be- cured by it. A touch of rheumatism or
neuralgia quieted. The severe pain of a
burn or scald promptly treated before in
Illumination sets in, which insures a cure in
about one-third of the time otherwise re-
quIred. Cuts and bruises should receive
prompt attention before the parts become
swollen, which can only be done whenlPain
Balm is kept at hand. A sore throat may
be cured before il becomes serious. A
troublesome corn may be removed by APP
plying it twice day for a week or two.
A lame back may be cured and several days
of valuable time saved or pain in the side
or chest relieved without paying a doctor
bill. Procure fifty cent bottle at once and
you will never regret it. For sale by A I.

Autumn GlorieS.


What mystic voices in the woods
When autumn tunes her horn
And marshals in bright array
The miniOns of the morn!
The leafy cohorts lift their heads,
And wave their banners bright
While Natures sweet enchantment fills
The soul-sense with delight,
The tufted hills in glory smile,
Like parterreS of flowers;
The emerald fields setting prove
To those enrapturing bowers.
The utmost Eastern stretch presents
''The Presidential Range"
Where glorified the mists ascend,
In beauty passing strange.
The peace of God is on the hills, /
And to the valley flows;
Each gorge and shady nook it fills
Sweet picture of repose!
A peace divine in silence breaks,
Ger all the landscape fair
In sweetness every hamlet bathes,
And CLOVIS with fervor rare.
peaceful, calm enchanting scene!
o mystic voices sweet!
With holy passion swells my heart!
My eyes with rapture greet

THE INCOME TAX.

The departure of Justice Jackson
from his home for Washington indi-
Gates that the Supreme Court will re-
open the income tax cases, at least SO
far as to permit a rehearing on ques-
tions not decided by a Majority. There
is at present no indication that the
decisions already rendered, on the
constitutionality of taxing incomes
from rent or bonds, will be reconsid-
cred or re versed. An interesting dis
patch from Washington gives some
reason to think that the rehearing
may end in declaring the whole tax
unconstitutional. 1t has been some
what generally supposed at Washing
ton that Justice Jackson would sup
port the law, so that five of the nine
Justices would uphold it on the points
not yet decided. But this dispatch
reports the opinion Of the neighbors
of Justice Jackson at his home in Ten
nesee, who expect him to decide
against the law. They would natural
1y know something of his opinions
and leanings in regard to a question
which had been discussed with SO
much interest, and say that he is op-
posed to the tax, and will regard it as
an unconstitutional unless arguments
are offered in its favor more convinc-
ing than have yet reached his mind.

Mr.. Joseph Battell of Middlebury is
indefatigable in his efforts to keep the
Morgan breed of horses to the front.
Through his efforts beginning Of a
state association of gentlemen inter-
ested in their breeding has been lately
organized. The association includes,
among others, Gen. Edward p. Ripley
Of Mendon, II. T. Cults of Orwell, F.
HI. harrington of Brandon, Prof. w.
E. Howard of Middlebury, Gov. U. A.
Woodbury. and LeGrand B. Cannon of
Burlington, and Ex Gov. Levi K. Full
Ter of Brattleboro. The Morgan is
distinctly a Vermont horse, and it is
well that those who pin their faith to
the breed should exert themselves to
keep it's virtues and excellencies at the
front.

Disintegration has struck the Dem
ocratic party in the South SO hard
that even the most optimistic mem
bers of that party concede that there
are serious breaks in the ranks, caus
ed by dissatisfaction and disappoint
ments. These hopeful ones predict
that most of the troubles will be over
come, and the sores will be healed by
the time of the next general election.
A very different story, however, is
told in private letters from the South.
The writer's say thousands will cut
away from the old party next time.
Fear Of persecution, of social ostra-
cism, or Of being in hopeless minority
will no longer deter men from voting
according to their convictions, for
the best interests of themselves, or
the particular locality in which they
live" They say the secret ballot is to
afford the way out of the wilderness.
This "cutting away" will be seen-not
only in West Virginia, Tennessee, and
North Carolina, where the lines were
broken last year, but in Maryland, AL
ALBANIA, and Kentucky, and even in
Mississippi and Louisiana.

Hetty Green, with two lawyers and
two stenographers, was present at a
hearing of the Tax Commissioners
recently to explain why New York
city should not tax her personal
estate. She explained that she brought
the two stenographers to act as a
check on each other, "for,o said she,
"stenographers, like lawyers and Off
cials need watching" The lawyers
were Wheeler FL. Peckham and Smith
E. Lane.
Mrs. Green is taxed on 81, $40, 900 of
personal property. She says she
ought not to be, for she is not resi-
dent of this city. If she has any real
home at all it is in Bellows Falls, VT,

Commander Cannon of the Grand
Army of the Republic, department of

general order admonishing the com
rades to take timely care for the prop
er and impressive observance of Me-
mortal day. He recommends that
each post to call to its aid Eour good
right arm,'' the Woman's Relief corps
and Sons of Veterans, giving each
some duty to perform, and calls spe
cial attention to the act passed at the
last session Of Vermont legislature
providing that ''The last half days
session of the public schools before
Memorial day shall be devoted to ex-
ercises commemorative of the history
of this nation during the war of the
Rebellion, and to patriotic instruction
in the principles of liberty and the
equal rights of man." Past command
ers are especially urged to see that
wide awake comrades are appointed
to work with school committees and
teachers to the end that the opportu
mites afforded by this occasion to
teach lessons of patriotism and to
cherish the memory of the dead are
fully utilized.

OUR GREAT NATURAL NATIONAL
POLICY.

There is an idea abroad that the
| Monroe doctrine was an original idea
of President Monroe. Such is not the
| fact. President Monroe was the first
to officially promulgate the doctrine
of the predominance of the United
States on the American continent,
but in doing SO he merely formulated
in words and put forth in official form
the substance of an idea that was and
is the simple logic of the relations of
the United States with other Ameri-
can countries, and that it was and is
vital to us as nation. That the Eu-
ropean powers should be prevented
from estabis hing themselves on this
continent as they have in Asia and
Africa, that we and not they should
dominate and control America, that
we and not they should have para
mount influence with the minor ma
tions of Central and South America,
are such evident propositions to
all patriotic citizens of this country
that they are the natural doctrine of
the United States. They are inherent
in our situation, and whether formu-
lated into words or not we must al
ways act upon them, as we always
have until a pusillanimous Cleveland
Mugwump administration departed
from that logical and necessary poll
cy.
The MugWump newspapers, and
few Of the Democratic, are giving
great attention to the analysis of
President Monroe's statement Of the
policy of the United States as to this
country's relations with other Ameri
can nations, as il the So called Mon
roe doctrine depended on that pro-
mitigation for it's vitality; as if there
would have been no such doctrine
had it not been formulated by Presi
dent Monroe. This is a mere split
ting of hairs, and an entirely false
assumption. The So called Monroe
doctrine would have been the nation
al policy of the United States whether
it had been enunciated by President
Monroe or any other president, or if
it had never been officially pro-
mulgated to all. It is the policy of
this country because it must be, and
not because any man or any party has
declared it to be so. 1t must be our
policy even if one administration ig
nores or repudiates it. Mr.. Cleve
land is determined man. He is very
tenacious of his opinions, and very
stubborn in carrying out his under
takings. But he can no more set
aside the great natural policy of the
United States, he can no more elimi
nate the so-called Monroe doctrine,
than could the king of old hold back
the tide Of old ocean by his ipse dirit.
President Cleveland and his policy of
infamy will pass away, thank heaven,
but the Monroe doctrine will endure
as long as the world itself shall exist.

The Cuban rebellion still processes
although it is almost lost sight of dur
ing the rapidly eliminating events at
Corinto. The new Spanish minister
continues the clipper talk of his pre-
decessor to the effect that the rebel
lion amounts to nothing, that it is
confined to a very small section of
the island; and that it will be crushed
out with hardly an effort on the part
of the Spanish government. Never
theless the end does not come, the
rebels continue to defy the Spanish
troops, and the crushing process fails
to materialize.

The whole population of the United

without bringing up the density of her
population to that of Massachusetts.
In fact if an area equal to that of In

crowding US as the people of Massa-

there. The tax commissioners esti-
mated the value of her personality at
81, 500, 900, upon which the tax would
have amounted to $4,000. Instead of
paying this amount toward the sup
port of the municipality which affords
protection of her property, this va
grant millionaire will contribute one
per cent. of the sum to the municipal
Golfers of Hampstead, L. L., and put
the balance aside for a rainy day.
