Announcement.

Having for nearly fifteen years been
engaged-in the newspaper business in
Bradford, and having succeeded in
building up the circulation and adver-
Using patronage of the OPINION very
materially in that time, the way has
seemed to open up still larger sphere
of usefulness, provided more capital
could be invested in the business, thus
securing branching out in several de-
partments, to result in mutual good,
both to the management and its pat
ronS.
To this end I have sold the entire
plant, including the OPINION building
and the personal property contained
therein, all bills and accounts, the sub
scription list and good will of the bust
ness to The Opinion Publishing Com
pany corporation duly organized I'M
der the laws of Vermont, with an au-
thorized capital of fifteen thousand dol
lars, ten thousand of which is already
paid in.
With increased capital many i'm
provements will be introduced in the
OPINION as soon as practicable. To its
long list of patrons, the job printing
department is known to be fully equip
ped now for the turning out of first
class work very promptly, but additions
to its type and presses will be made
and its capacity doubled.
In word, it will be the aim of the
new company to do the leading bust
in Eastern Vermont in the printing anC
publishing line. Having been elected
manager of the corporation by the di-
rectors, shall give my best efforts tc
the successful prosecution of the af-
fairs Of the company, and I take this
occasion to bespeak the patronage o.
all whose business interests naturally
center in this enterprising village.

Spring Time

is when nearly every one feels the need of
some blood purifying, strength inyigorat
ing and health producing medicine. The
real merit of Hoods Sarsaparilla is the rea-
son of its widespread popularity. Its I'M
equalled success is its best recommends
ton. The whole system is susceptible to
the most good from a medicine like Hoods
Sarsaparlla taken at this time, and we
would lay special stress upon the time and
remedy, for history has it recorded that de-
lays are dangerous. The remarkable sue
cess achieved by Hoods Sarsaparilla and
tta many words of praise it has received,
make it worthy of your confidence. We
ask YOU to give this medicine fair trial.

Butter
Talk

The fact that the quality of Butter
marketed today largely depends upon the grade of
salt used, admits of no argument.
Two qualifications in Dairy Salt are indispen
sable
1st. Absolute purity, which good
flavor and keeping qualities.
3D. Quickness in dissolving ensuring
perfect distribution with a minimum
amount of working.
The fact that all the prize butter made in
Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont last year
was sailed with Worcester Salt, and that 90 per
cent of the creamery and dairy men in New Eng
land use nothing but Worcester, proves beyond
doubt that Worcester is the Standard of Dairy
Salt and embodies the above indispensable quail

One was country friend who was visit
ing the other girl, probably a stenographer,
as long streak of typewriter ink ran
across her hand, says the Chicago Record.
The country girl was delighted with every
thing she saw, and made audible remarks
about whatever caught her fancy. Sud-
denly her eyes fell upon two people at an
adjoining table, and, leaning forward, she
whispered:
Say, Nell, look over there"
Nell turning her head. replied some
what languidly:
"Well, Bess what is it?'
"See that man and woman" Bess re-
turned, upsetting the ketchup in her eager
ness.
Yes"
"See how they are sitting there without
saying a single word to each other. They
are evidently husband and wife, amt
they?" asked Bess, growing excited.
Il guess they are, but what of it?'
why, it's just as it always isl was
Bess' whispered answer. "As soon as a
mans married he ceases to care for the
woman he raved over before they were
united. Just look at that man."
Nell suggested that perhaps the man
might have talked himself out, but Bess
would not admit this was the case.
II should say not she retorted angrily.
why, if some other man would come in
you see now quickly ne q ma something
to say. It's all of a piece with the actions
of the sex. Don't you think so?''
Think what?" Nell asked, mystifed by
Bess denunciation.
THAT men are horrid creatures, any
way?"
mo, Bess. I can't say 1 do Nell re-
turned warmly. Il know too many nice
men to think that. You've been reading
some article on woman's rights, I sup
pose," and she laughed little sneer-
ingly.
Eyes, have, but even if hadn't I'd have
eyes in my head. How would you like your
husband, if you had one, to treat you that
Way?'
II wouldn't like him to act that way
Nell returned, her cheek flushing as she
thought of the one who was destined to
occupy that position, but then I'd try to
make myself a little more pleasant than
that woman is doing. She hasn't said a
word, either"
81 wouldn't talk to such an old bear!"

Neither of them had any idea Of how
loud they were talking and SO were con-
siderably annoyed when the man in ques-

snvannnh,n Cotton Receint.-

What is that cotton exchange commit
tee doing that was appointed some time
ago to find out why cotton that should
have come to Savannah was going to
other ports? When the committee was
appointed there was a good deal of excite
ment over the fact that Norfolk and
Charleston were getting cotton that right
fully belonged to Savannah, and 1t was
the understanding that the committee was
going to find out at once the reason why
Savannah was not getting her usual pro-
portion of cotton. The committee may be
working at the matter, and will come for
ward with a satisfactory report shortly.
1t is certainly to be hoped it will. The
business men of the city are Interested
in knowing whether the falling off in
the volume of cotton receipts was due to
the refusal of the railroads leading to
Savannah to carry cotton as cheaply
as roads leading to other ports were car
rying it, or to the fact that the ocean
freight rates at other ports were much
more favorable to shippers than the rates
at this port.
the appointment of a committee of inves-
tigation it would be a mistake not to give
the facts to the public.
We do not know, of course. that the
committee has any intention of dropping
the investigation 1t may be carrying it
out vigorously, but In view of the fact
that railroad officials do not appear to
have been called as witnesses and the
further fact that the committee has made
no statement of the progress it has made
in the work committed to it, the impression
is likely to get abroad that the investiga-
tion has been abandoned.
There was never a better time than the
present to settle the question as to where
the blame for Savannah's loss of cotton
is, and the question ought to be settled,
The remedy cannot be applied until the
blame is satisfactorily located.
