LETTERS TO MONTPELIER PEoPLE.-Mrs
Campbell, Montpelier, Madam m:-You house.
keepers of course don't know it, but you
are buying soap too cheap for your own good /;
that is why you are using too much soap
and rotting your clothes besides.
Competition among soap-makers is very
fierce; we've all been cutting prices; when
a manufacturer reduces price he reduces
quality with it,; as result we've got the
price and quality Of soap away down below
where it ought to be, for your benefit.
Ihat Is why you are using onethird hird more
than you would use If you used soap made
mild and heavy bodied like Harmless. Re-
spectfully yours, G. Ell. Post & Co., New
burgh, N. Y.

The tsetse fly disease OF Africa has re
Gently been shown by the researches OF
Bruce to be due to flagellate infusorium
which is found in the blood of infected
animals. This disease is fatal to the OK,
the horse, the dog, the sheep, and the ass,
but not to the indigenous wild animals in
the region infested by the tsetse fly. The
researches of Bruce indicate that the fly
acts as carrier Of the parasite from dis
eased to healthy animals. He has shown
by experiment that after feeding on the
blood Of an infected animal the tsetse fly
can communicate the disease to healthy
animal by its bite. After a short period
of incubation the h9matozoa appear in
the blood concurrently with the develop
ment of fever, and followed by rapidly
progressive anamia, dropsy and death.
The SO called 'surra disease" which
prevails in certain portions of India, is be-
lieved to bc due to q similar parasitic pro-
tozOan (Trypanosma eyansi). According
to Lingard, this infusorium exists as an
innocuous parasite in the blood of rats in
India. 1t Is not pathogenic, or only feehly
so, for the native OK Of India, but gives
rise to fatal infectious disease in horses,
dogs and camels.--Surgcon General Stern
berg in Popular Science Monthly.

The Passing of "Boom Times"

During the IL years between 1879 and
1890 this country ran an almost breathless
race of eager and rapid development Ger
tainly those were not normal times. They
were based upon conditions that will new.
CT be seen again upon the American cont.
nent. To long for their restoration is to in.
dulge in the fascinating but profltless oc-
cupation of chasing rainbOws. For what
Is there in our present condition or in our
future prospects to justify the hope that
those times will return? Our new west IL
already fairly well peopled, and its bust
ness conditions have cOnformed themselves
to those Of the rost Of the country. Except
in a few mining districts it no longer Of
ers u field for adventure or speculation
Our great transcontinental railway sys
TENS are already constructed, and not one
Of them can earn interest on the money
it cost. Our new towns and cities went
rather beyond the capacity of the tributary
country to support them under the stimu-
lus Of inflated real estate values and with
the temporary opportunities they offered
for employment of labor.
We shall not again have food of for.
eign money pouring in to loan upon any
thing or everything having the semblance
of property. The foreigner has had his ex.
perience, and he now wants to be doubly
sure that he Is going to get his capital
back and his regular interest payments
before an American investment has any
attraction for him. Is it not, on the whole,
probable that we shall have to make up
our minds to plod,along in the slow going
way of older nations and to be satisfied
with moderate profits and slow accumu'
lation of wealth. If these be our reason.
able expectations, would it not be sane
and wholesome for people to cease dream
ing of n golden age which is gone forever:

About this stage we stopped at some

seemed to actually dance with mcrriment

for minute; then we started up, and the
strangers disappeared. At the same mo-
ment shower Of rice, oats, wheat, old
shoes, rubbers and all sorts Of similar brio
a-brac came hurting over our heads into
the car. A pint of grain at least went
down my back, and a considerable quan-

shoes. A new rubber fully 10 inches long
fell into my lap, the whole combining to
afford me new sense Of pleasure.
Everybody appeared to be taken by sur

and was selected for that place by Mr..
Platt when Col. Fellows died. In 1894
Mr.. Olcott became the republican lead
err in the board of aldermen, and his
intense republicanism and his inor-
dinate desire TO be doing something at
tracted the attention of Mr.. Platt.
While an alderman he was chairman of
the finance committee and eX-officio
chairman of the sinking fund. When
Mr.. Olcott took charge of the district at
torney's office the democrats fled from
him as from pestilence. The Tam
many men were replaced by men whom
Plat named. They represented every
political element. Mr.. Olcott is by no
means a machine man. He has often re-
belled, and carried his point, at the
methods of the machine, and it is said
that he is in some sympathy with the
reform movement. That accounts, as
much as anything else, for rs selection.
He is graduate of New York college
and Columbia law school, and is a ma
tive New Yorker.
