The delinquent taxes OF Albany have beer
placed in my hands for collection aud it now
becomes my solemn duty to no tify those that
are in arrears that the same must be paid
forthwith. You all know very well what a
oollector is elected for, and If he fails to col
Iect the taxes he would !be of no more use
than side Judge. So take due notice and
govern yourselves accordingly and pass in
your taxes at once.I appreciate your prompt
ness in paying up last years taxes, as the old
bill is almost entirely cleaned up. 1t is use
less to try to dodge death and taxes, so pre-
pare yourself before the day of judgement
comes. Respectfully Y ours,
E. G.. DARLING, Constable and Collector.

Fruit stains may usually be remov-
ed by pouring boiling water through
the stain, but if this fails add oxalic
acid, dissolving three ounces in pint
of water. Soak the stain in this So
luton for five minutes and then steam
it by holding over kettle of boiling
water, or hang in the sunshine. Rinse
in ammonia when the stain disappears
so the acid will be counteracted.
Rinse again thoroughly SO that the
fabric will not be injured.

To remove grass stains soak and rub
the spots in water and cream of tartar.
If garment is widowed lemon juice
is said to remove the stain. If the stain
is hard to eradicate soak in a gallon
of water, in which tablespoonful of
chloride of lime has been dissolved.
Rinse thoroughly.
Some people make it a point never
to retire without light in the house.
A bit of inform alton worth knowing
in connection Herewith is that small,
even light may be obtained from a
small piece Of candle, all night if fine
powdered salt is piled around the
candle until the black part of the wick
is reached.
Often a defective cover will be
found among the fruit jars, and can
not be screwed down to make the jar
tight. Put a little putty around be-
tween the cover and rubber, and
when the top is screwed down as
tightly as possible press the putty in
around the crevices; when the putty
becomes hard the jar will be air tight.

ABOUT SLEEP.

There are few persons who can tell
Off hand just what position they as
sumo to invite sleep, and yet there is
not an individual in the world who has
not some trick of distributing limbs
and trunk to ensure slumber's blissful
spell which he practises unconscious
ly.
This is a night habit, as perpetual and
immutable under normal conditions
as the succession Of the seasons. No
sooner arewe really off for the Land of
Nod than the night habit asserts it's
dominion.
Our hands and arms seek the same
parts of the bed or the portions of our
bodies upon which they have nightly
rested since infancy, our feet and legs
stretch at the same angles or loosely
entwine in comfortable relaxation, as
commanded by unconscious will.
1t is seldom of our own deliberate
volition that we place our bodies in
position for sleep, as you will find to-
night on going to bed if you remem-
Der these words.
In truth, if you do not seek to COM
Dat the instincts, you will be surprised
at the dispositions of the various
members involuntarily made.
If you endeavor to go to sleep by
new arrangement of the body you will
also be surprised by the revolt against
slumber which will surely ensue, but
even before the struggle is we'll begun
you will probably surrender, and per-
nit the all masterful night habit to
re-instate those little details of posi-
ton which long practice has made
necessary to your comfort.

CHEESE And EGGS.

There is very little change to note in
the cheese situation. except that holders
are stronger in their views in anticipa-
ton of the falling of in supplies. Sales
of choice late-made northern at to
SIC, with some fancy makes at 994 to
Zoe. Demand rather light, but with
colder weather it is expected to in
crease.
At Utica sales were at to S5sc, includ-
ing large and small. AtLittIe Falls the
sales were 81 TO SEC, and market firm.
Choice, fresh eggs have been III good
demand at 20 to 21c. and special lots of
northern Indiana Ohio and Michigan at
211a TO &c. To command the latter
rate the eggs must grade UP percent
new laid. These kind will sell quicker
at PC than ordinary western at zoe.
Fresh eastern command % to 25c. Re
frigerator stock in fair demand at IA to
15c. The stock in cold storage was re-
duced last week $500 cases, and stands at
65,707 cases. against 1928 cases same

IN HUB MARKETS.
Fresh Made Butter Exceeds
the Demand.

Cold Storage stock Taken In Preference
to Fresh Keceipts-Yery Little Change
i'm the Cheese >ituatioD-ChOice Fresh
Eggs Ia Good Demand.
Boston. Nov. mo Improvement in
the general tone of the butter market
can be reported. Some of our dealers
say that they have little better trade
than last week, while others contend
that it is as hard as ever to sell fresh
made butter in large lots. The supply
continues TO exceed the demand, and ac-
cumulauions in cellars and public cold
storage warehouses are the result. In,
the meantime summer creamery from
cold storage has been III demand, and
this continues TO be used instead Of the
fresh make.
1t is not unusual for Boston to be be-
hind other places in regard to the de-
mand for fresh-made butter at this time
of year, but it is many years since there
was such a wide difference in prices as
at present. With Chicago and EIgin at
% cents, New York at % cents, it must
seem strange to outsiders that no more
than q cents can be obtained here in a
wholesale way, but such is the fact, if
the great bulk of the receivers are telling
the truth.
The principal reason for this condition
of affairs is that retailers and jobbers
are using cold storage stock, and while
this can be bought at to = cents less than
fresh make, and it is satisfactory to con-
sumers it will be taken in preference to
the fresh receipts. OF course a certain
quantity of the finest fresh is selling at
full prices, but the proportion is so small
in comparison with the whole amount
consumed that has very little influence
on general values

THE BROOKS WOOING.

The following written by Mrs. ]. F.
Batchelder of this village, and was read at a
| recent entertainment given by the O.E S
society.
A flower was growing in rocky crevice
A sweet forget me-not, piece of Heaven's
own blue.
little brook had watched its sweet unfold
ing,
Andwooed it with a heart all brave and true.
''Bend down to me sweet flower" the little
brook said.
II want to whisper something for your ear
alone
Let go your mothers hand, and softly
gliding
We two will seek fairer, sweeter home"
Forget-me-not admired the dashing brook
let.
She even loved him, a flower might do;
But when it came to leaving home and
mother,
Her heart was very sad between the two.
The brooklet murmuring of the grand old
ocean;
OF banks all sweet with fern upon the way;
OF other flowers, white and gold and
crimson,
Then said, "Now, darling, do not say me
nay"
81 love you, sweetheart, with knights
devotion.
Whatev er more could any lover do?''
I've seen a many flowers in all my travels,
But of them all Pm only true to you"
The foweret said, ''Dear mother I am
going,
The brook, my king, calls louder every day
The mother murmured as she kissed her
darling,
''The world is wise, there is no other way"
IT loved you, child, ere yet the brook came
whispering,
But maids and flowers all go the self same
way,
They love their mothers till their lovers WOO
them,
It's always thus, SO wags the world away

WIDBER'S BOND.
Suit of the People VS.. Fidelity Conn
pany Submitted.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 9.-The
suit Of the people against the Fidelity
and Deposit Company to recover $100,
600, the amount of defaulting A. c.
Widber's bond, was submitted to Judge
Belcher to-day
Judge Cope, on behalf of the Fidelity
Company, said that the evidence did
not show conclusively that Widber's
defalcation occurred between March
31st and April 22d, when the stealings
in the city treasury were discovered.
In the absence of this proof it was I'M
just to saddle the whole cost upon the
defendant company.
Garrett McEnerney battered Judge
Cope's plea by citing law points bear
ing upon the case at issue. He con-
tended that when Widber, on March
31st, certified that he had so much
money on hand, the presumption was
that the statement was true, and in
consequence the sureties on his bond
were liable for any defalcation which
was discovered after that date. This,
he contended, was amply shown
The matter was taken under advise
ment by Judge Belcher, who announced
that previous to rendering his decision
he would notify the attorneys to be
present
