THE WOMEN WHO WAIT.

He went to the war in the morninp-
The roll of the drums could be heard.
Bat he paused at the gate with his mother
For kiss and coulfortiag word,
lie was full of the dreams and ambitions
That youth is SO ready TO weave,
AND proud of the claak Of his saber
And the chevrons of gold on his sleeves.
He came from the war in the eve.ius.
The meadows were spriHkled with snow
The drums and the busles were silent
And the steps of the soldiers we're slow.
He WIS wrapped i'll the flag of his country
When they laid him away in the mold
With the glittering stars of a captain
Replacing the chevrons of gold.
With the heroes who slept Oh the hillside
He lie. with the flag at his head,
But, blind with the years of her weeping,
His mother ;et Eaourus for her dead.
The soldiers who fall in the battle
May feel but lnomemt of rain,
But the women who wat on the korne
steads
Must dwell on the ghosts oft he slain

The Londonderry sifter. (South Londonderry, Vt.) 1883-19??, 1898-06-10

San Francisco, Cal, June 2 -
The report from Washington that
the annexation Of Hawaii is about to
be consummated is given much Gre
dence by the officers at Camp Merritt
and they are already figuring on an
order to send troops to the islands to
look after United States interests,
and some of the volunteers who fear
that they will not be sent to the Phil.
ippines are counting upon being sent
to Hawaii as place of second
choice.
Gen. Merritt is arranging the de
tails of the second expedition to the
Philippines, but has not yet made
public the assignment of troops for
the expedition, and he will not make
the order public until the date of the
sailing of the fleet has been delivered.
1t is stated in some quarters that
the expedition cannot possibly sail
for two weeks yet, and it is even
semi officially stated that the vessels
will not be ready for 10 days yet.

The Alum Hearts.

Many people are suffering from some
form of heart disease who have no idea
of the cause Of It,.
Any disturbance of the digestive or
gans affects the hearts action, and there
fore ev ny food which iiterferes with
digesto is responsible where Their are
troubles Of this character.
1t has been discovered that the use of
baking powder made from burnt alum
coagulates the blood very rapidly, which
interferes with its free flow through the
arteries and valves of that organ. For
merly alum was used as specific for
children's Group, but owing to ITS tenden-
cy from the causes named to produce
heart failure, physicians no longer en-
ploy it.
In face of such facts and in view of
the overwhelming testimony of scientists
as to the poisonous character OF this
drug when used for food purposes, can
| there be any excuse for the ignolan, or
unconcern which permits any one to take
| from the grocer package of alum bak-
ing powder, simple for the sake of saving
a few cents in price?
1t is healthful sign that many states
are Limiting by law the sale of the alum
baking powder. Very soon it viii be
prohibited in all states, or treated as a
poison, as it should be. But for such
laws, how are the alum powders to be
known by consumers?
Where alum powders are not branded
as such, nor their sale prohibited by law,
it is better to avoid the use of any new
or doubtful brand until it has been an
alyzed. The purity of all powders may
be suspected if they are sold at !, price
lower than the price of the best standard
brands. We know the Royal to be Il
tirst.class cream of tartar powder, and if
consumers insist upon having that brand,
they will be sure of pure, healthlul arti-
Gle. In view of recently reported case
of poisoning of whole family living
near Logansport, Indiana, from the use
of alum powder, it behooves every one to
use extraordinary care in purchasing
their supplies. We do not hesitate to re-
commend the Royal to all who are in
doubt as to the powder they have been
using, as the United States Government
tests placed that brand at the head of all
the tartrate powders.

THE LONDONDERRY STFTTR.


The SITTER humbly begs Col. Kit
tredge Haskins' pardon. 1t had no
idea of hitting him when the little
squib anent the stay-at-home men
with high sounding titles was written.
1t was after bigger game than Col
onels made by ex-governor Peter I.
Washburn. Now, with this explana-
ton, surely the proverbial goodness
of heart possessed by Col. Haskins
will permit him to grant our prayer
for forgiveness.
The naked facts in regard to this
matter is that Brattleboro has two or
three men who have given the place
a bad name, politically. In fact it is
known within and without the state
as politically rotten and that if any
good thing ever comes out of il it is
in spite of the jealousy of these fell
lows who are everlastiugly looking
for something for their own sweet
selves; who day in and day out are
planning and plotting with this sole
object IN view, in fact shape all their
actions, political, social, religious and
humane if they ever have any of these
latter feelings, with the one end in
view, that some time they may get
there. So when the people call for
any one from Brattleboro-they
never call for these fellows-some
scheme must be put up to thwart the
popular will because, forsooth, some
time they may get the place. They
are at this little game now and using
