The Poultney Journal has .'come out" for
Josiah Grouta but in its eulogy of this
gentleman's merits has made one serious
mistake; it classes him as a lawyer instead
OF farmer. 1t says, major Grout is
possessed Of a fine education, and has
acted as an attorney in this state and the
west for many years. In this profession
he has attained distinction, as well as sue
cess financially" The Barton Monitor
which has also ''come OUT says .'he is a
plain, practical farmer, the pattern exam
pie in this sphere for his whole county"
Which of these powerful organs is telling
the truth?

times. when the train is goin' full speed,
some fool hobo takes it into his head he

again, some fellers take it into their heads
cars. They tear the woodwork from the

You can't blame the brakes for gettin'
mad at that, can you?"
But what pleasure do you get from the

The Strong Jaw In Some Men.

Among all old world apes the teeth are
the chief weapons for defense against nat
ural foes and for combats for mates or
tribal supremacy. The CANNES are in most
cases enormously developed insomuch that
Ill informed naturalists have suggested
that near relationship must exist between
the primates and the carnivora. AS mat
ter of fact these formidable teeth have
nothing to do with Authorization, but are
as purely weapons of war as are the bay
onet and the maxim gun. In practically
every emergency demanding unusual en-
ergy, obstinacy and courage they come in
to play.
In every conflict with the world, the
flesh and the devil-as such things are I'M
derstood in pithecoid society-the temporal
and masseter muscles are the chief arbiters
of war. To become great and powerful
anthropoid 1t is absolutely and brutally
necessary to have a large and strong jaw
to give firm attachment to the teeth and
good leverage to the muscles. That for an
immense epoch our prehuman ancestors
achieved success in life in like manner is
as clear as the print of "Maga" to those
who have learned to read natures hand
writing.
Since those days of true arcadian sim
plicity our lie has become bewilderingly
complex, and our methods for settling So
cial difficulties have changed generally for
the better. But here, as in SO many other
instances, the habits Of a past age have left
an indelible impress on the nervous sys-

CARLYLE and Beggars.

Sir Henry Parkes and Thomas Carlyle,
as is we'll known, were intimate friends
and correspondents In one of series of
letters published in the Sydney Herald is
the following passage: Zone Sunday after
noon was walking with Thomas Carlyle
from Chelsea to Grovesnor square, when
was accosted by begging child. gave
the child sixpence, which called forth q
rebuke from the stern philosopher at my
side The ether day, said Carlyle, I was
asked for aims by poor little weeping
girl. had profound conviction that no
gift from me could benefit her, but never
theless gave her some loose pence. After
walking short distance I turned to see
what she did with herself, when saw an
other bigger girl take tho pence from her
and beating her to make her cry for more.
It is of no use. It is worse. It is support

THOUGHT THE Dominic A DRUMMER !.
And So BE Couldn't Buy a Baby Carriage
Till the Boss Came In.


In some of the villages down Oh Long
Island strangers particularly fire looking
ones, arc sometimes mistaken for drum
mcrs. A certain clergyman who had been
called to church in Sayvillc started out
soon after arriving at his new charge to
make some purchases. He naturally stop
ped at the first important store in the vii
lagc, where orc of the gcntlcmanly clerks
asked him if he could serve him in any
way. The stranger asked, "Do you sell
baby carriages hcre?' AS this particular
clerk did not care to assume the response
bility Of ordering any goods in this line
from strange drummer he remarked to
the stranger, "The boss is not in, but will
return later. )"
The: stranger waited. In a few minutes
another clerk cspying him also offered to
serve him. when it was again decided that
the boss was the proper one to see, and so
the matter thus stood when the stranger
thought he would walk back to his stop
ping place and await the boss appearance
ut the store.
The good Methodist brother with whom
the new minister was staying, upon hear
ing him relate his experience at the store,
Went up to ascertain why the Rev. Mr.
Leplcy could not buy a baby carriage with
out the presence Of the boss. "My!" ex-
claimed u half dozen clerks "Was that the

enough and smart looking enough to pass
