why may not an inventory of all the books
owned by the pupils of every school in
the State be taken during the spring
term and filed with the school directors
of the towns or the committees of the
graded districts? If that is done, there
will be no difficulty in ascertalning what
and how many books the pupils really
need next term. Besides, it is absurd to
suppose that people will tax themselves
to buy for their children books already
possessed by them.
Section eight Of the law was clearly
put into it for the purpose of obviating
so far as possible useless changes in
books. Changes are necessarily expen-
sive. They mean large purchases of
books at the start. and so of course
school-book agents advocate changes {;
that is what the most Of them are here
for. But if school officials do their duty
we believe few changes will be made and
that the towns and districts will be saw
ed the large initial outlay which must
follow the substitution of new books for
those at present employed.

THE WOMAN WAS SUED THIS TIME.

a novel breach-of-promise case has
been on trial In the Rutland county
court the past week, that of William II g..
Forbes of Northumberland, n. H.,
against Lucy Wells Morse of West Rut-
land. Mr.. Forbes first wife died in 1855,
and Mrs. Morse, then Miss Wells, who
was her sister, went to Mr.. Forbes
home for time to care for the three
children. Miss Wells remained there for
a time and then returned to her home.
a few months after the death of Mr..
Forbes first wife the defendant agreed
to marry Mr.. Forbes, but later her af-
fections waned and she decided that the
plaintiil was not the kind of a man she
wanted for husband. I'm the summer
of 1889 Miss Wells again went to the
home of the plaintiff to care for his
household affairs, a contract being made
that the plaintiff should treat her kindly
and abstain from all demonstrations of
affection. The defendant maintained
that this contract was broken, while the
plaintiff claimed that he kept it. After
the defendant left Mr.. Forbes house she
was engaged to f. A. Morse, a West
Rutland druggist, another brother-in-

FREE TEXTBOOKS AGAIN.

Now that school directors have been
chosen in the several towns and pruden-
ial committees in the graded districts,
he textbook war will go on with added
Iehemence. The new books will be chos-
En by the directors, committees and SUI
perintendents at meetings TO be held on
he first Tuesday in June, and books
'hen selected must remain in use for five
Eears.
1t is sincerely to be hoped that school
tficials will give due heed to the two fol-
bwing sections of the law governing the
hoice and furnishing of books:
Sec. I. Pupils already supplied with
ext-boOks shall not be supplied with
imilar textbooks till needed.
Sec. $. 1t shall he the duty of the
|own, city'or district boards to ascertain
hat books are now in most general use

'ults are gained by their use, before any
hanges are made.

looks are not now in general use here
bouts are cOntending, we understand,

LIVER ToRPlD2
INCREASED DEMAND FOR FIG CORDIAL,
THE IDEAL TONIC LAXATIVE FOR
CHILDREN.

In the spring the blood is thick, the
liver torpid, and the system in need of Il
tonic. Constipation is always danger
Gus to health. and in the spring it is par
ticulariy to be avoided.
Thousands of grateful testimonials
from mothers and physicians verify the
fact that Fig Cordial is AN ideal tonic
laxative for the American people, espec-
tally for children.
OF those recently received is one from
Mrs. w. Il. Hayward. i Roberts Ave.

Cordial is to he highly recommended.

children. have tried many prepara-
tions for constipation. but none of them
were so satisfactory as your Fig Cordial
My sick headaches have disappeared, i,
and, thanks to Fig Cordial. | am now
perfectly well. This is more than | can
say of any other medicine that | ever
used"
Mrs. +. Seymour of Winooski, VT.
writes "Our baby girl was troubled
with weak stomach and sick headache,
and on doctors prescription, we began
giving her Fig Cordial. She felt better
from the very first dose and since then
has improved rapidly.
says he has used Fig Cordial in her
family and is pleased to say that it is the
most satisfactory laxative she ever used.
She also recommends that everyone suf-
fering from constipation should try it.
c. Murray, NJ. D., of Edwards. Y. Y,
in writing to the company under date of
Feb. 20 says thar for over year he
has used Fig Cordial in his practice, and
VIII continue to use ii, especially in
cases of small children. where he con-
siders it the ideal remedy.
These are a fair sample of the letters
the company is daily receiving praising
the merits of Fig Cordial.

can be got to speak frankly, that there
can be half dozen or more complete
sets of textbooks made up of almost
equal merit a moments thought as to
the necessary result of years of the
sharpest competition will show that this
must tee true. And YET we aust have
the "change." We pay for the books
and we pay for the 10 ageHts. The
State pays the whole bill. 1t is pure
foot work from beginning to end.
