Beet Sugar Industry In France.

There was one sharp pinch. Coffee and
sugar were no longer luxuries, but neces-
sitios, and through tho continental ON
barge colonial wares had become and were
likely to remain very dear and very scarce.
Such substitutes us ingenuity could devise
were gradually accepted for the former.
To provide tho latter the beet root industry
was fostered by every means. The en-
peror kept a sample Of sugar made from
beuts OH his chimney piece as an orna-
mcnt, and occasionally sent gifts of the
precious commodity to his fellow sover-
eigns. The story is told that an official
who had been banished from favor recov-
cred his standing entirely by planting
whole estate with bocts. Such traitsswero
considered evidence of plain, homoly COM
mon sense by tho people, who enjoyed tho
sensati that their emperor participated
in thei, feelings and daily shifts.-Pro-

MILLINERY OPENING.

Burlington Daily News, Oct.
One of the events of the millinery
season was the opening of the spacious
parlors of Mrs. p. c. Dodge this after
noon. \ throng of admring ladies
were present to take uote of the latest
creations of the miliner's art. The soft
lights and the music of the hidden
orchestra yividly reminded one of the
ball room. The large halls were deco
rated in green, in palms, ferns and as
paragus, with an occasional touch of
some livelier color.
The caprlces Of fashion were plainly
seen by the exhibition of the bonnet of
our grandmothers, the "pole" of 1880
or thereabouts, only these of today in
Mrs. Dodge's parlors are a trine more in
accord with modern ideas. They have
been revived for the ladies of the end of
the century. One other feature of the
opening was the display of Connolly
turbans, shown for the first time in the
Green Mountain State.
\ large Rembrandt hat with white
lace crown, wide ribbon strings, Chiffon
ends, imported Connolly veil, attracted
much attention. Mrs. Dodge is consid-
erlng an offer from New York milliner
of position as head miliner at a salary
of $40 week.-Adc.
