Hon. P. o. Vickery left Tuesday
evening, for brief fishing trip at Lake
CobbOsSeecontee where he will try fly
fishing in the early morning hours, to-
day. He says that though the Great
pond trout will not rise to a fly at
present, those at Cobbosseecontee will
do so far more readily. The fishing in
the two bodies of water is as different
as can be imagined. At Great pond
the best fishing is during the day when
the water is not rough, while at Cob
bosseecontee the fishing rule that a
choppy wave gives the best fishing
holds good, and at the latter place it
is understood the rule that the best
fishing is at daylight and sunset also
holds good.

The Power oil the Press.

1.-The power of the press" is a common
expression, but few realize its actual
power. Deep thinkers do not hesitate to
assert that half the crime of our country
may be traced to this source. But great
as is the influence of the press, it cannot
begin to equal the power of Hostetter's
Stomach Bltters over disease Most dis
eases originate in a weak stomach. The
Bitters strengthens the stomach, purifies
the blood and cures constipation. 1t will
tone up the nervous system and stimulate
inactive kidneys. As an appetizer it Is
unequalled. 1t cures sick people, and an
occa sional dose regulates the bowels and
prevents we'll people from becoming sick.
If you want TO get well, and keep well,
use Hostetter's Stomach Bitters.

Secretary A. G. Young Of the State
board Of health, is one of the staunchest
believers in vaccination as a preventative
against the smallpox. He has studied in
to the matter deeply as he must do in
his capacity as a physician and as the ex-
ecutive officer of the board of health, and
he becomes more and more convinced Of
the merits of vaccination. the more he
studies.
He sent, not long ago, to the headquar-
tiers of the Jenner society in England, for
some of their circulars on the subject of
vaccination and he received, Monday, a
packet containing one each of the sew
eral different circulars the society pub
fishes.
The Jenner society is one formed in
England for the purpose of commemorate
ing the name and work of Edward Jen-
ner, NJ. ID. of Berkeley, in the county Of
Gloucester, England, the man who was
the originator of the vaccination idea.
With Jenner the society honors the
names of Pasteur and Lister who did
work along the same line.
The Jenner society is composed Of the
leading physicians and surgeons of Eng
land, and is supported not only by them,
but by members of the nobility who have
become converted to the vaccination be
lief. The society was also formed for the
purpose of defeating the work of an anti
vaccination society that was started in
England.
One of the strongest arguments the
ciety sets forth is the action of smallpox
in a town in Gloucester in 1898. The at
lacks in England seem to Le largely con-
fined to the younger people. OF 100 under
ten years of age, who had the smallpox
81 were unvaccinated and AZ had been
Vaccina ted. None who had been vacci-
mated died, while % of the unvaccinated
died. Taken throughout all ages, the
mean average Of deaths of those who had
been vaccinated was SO per cent, while
the mean average of those who had not
been vaccinated was 41.4.
In some of the pamphlets Illustrations
of the disease are given and the different
stages of the disease in the vaccinat ted
and in the unvaccinated, are compared.
Reading one of these ought TO go
great way toward converting anyone,
remarked DR.. Young. Tuesday.

DESIGNATED THE CEMETERY
Flower Thieves Rob the Graves at st.

Complaint has been made to the city

buried there. The people were evil
IDENTIFY looking for plants and it is as
serted that over wagon load of plants
have been taken from the cemetery
since last Tuesday evening. The men
who committed the deed evidently
came to the cemetery in wagons and
driving up to the graves they COM
pletely despoiled them of all the flowers
that had been left upon the graves by
loving friends and relatives. The
damage was mostly done where the
graves had been decorated with ported
plants and in these incidents the
thieves have torn up the graves in a
horrible manner in order to secure the
blooming geraniums and other potted
plants which were planted on the
graves. Some parts of the cemetery

robbers, but the appearance of the
various graves shows that the men
worked in very systematic manner
and every plant of value was removed.
While the matter is not within the
province of the police of the city, an
effort will be made to find out the
guilty people and bring them to
speedy justice. 1t is rumored that the
flowers taken from the graves have
found their way into some of the
green houses in Racine, but no evidence
can be discovered which will lead to
the arrest of the guilty parties.
The public cemeteries are the most
sacred possessions of the people and
every effort should be made to arrest
and punish the men who would
desecrate the silent resting places OF
the dead.

QUEER WOMEN.

Some women are queer, and their
queerness sometimes has pathetic
side to it. Here is case where
young couple went 40 years ago on to
new farm in new country. They
built such house as they could, and
as the BARNS came and more room was
needed the old house was added to by
lean tos and wings, and here the chill
dren were born, grew to manhood and
womanhood and bade father and moth
er goOdby as they went out into the
world. The time came when the bank
account and the needs of the old man
and woman required a new house,
and so an architect was consulted and
nice modern home built just at the
rear Of the old house, which was to be
removed. Now, when the new home
was all finished and the day came to
move into it, this woman said that she
could never live in it and begged to be
allowed to end her days in the old
home, which had become in some way
a part Of her life. The smoke still curls
up from the little back kitchen Of the
old house as mother gets breakfast,
while the handsome new house, with
parlors, closets and bathrooms, stands,
with blinds drawn, tenantless. AS we
said before, women are queer.
