Long years ago within the realm OF

Where Pleasure ruled as king and
Peace as queen,
With Truth and Joy as courtiers, and
with
Good Works for henchmcn, loyal,
staunch and keen.
There came one day unto the king, a
FOOL
CAS- soft he came as leaves fall from

Who asked that he might gladden. the
kings ruiz
With merry jests-and gave his name
as Love.
The stranger forthwith turned jolly

And neer before with that realm was

Such merriment as shook the gather

Now this so pleased the king that

Thus was the Fool to instant favor
brought;
His coming seemed T., change the

He tempered speech: he softencd

He banishod Care AMI Gloominess: he
stilled
The cunning whispcrings Of Distrust
and Doubt;
Until each heart with Confidence was
filled
And all unworthy thoughts were left
without.
He blessed the land and praises of him
rang,
And all rejoiced beneath his gracious
rule;
YCc. none e'er asked what song clis own

1t mattered not-for he was but a

With leaves Of gold and berries

Until a rival came one day. by

A mighty fellow, cunning. shrewd, al

Who bowed full low and gave his
name as Wealth.
And from that moment things did
greatly change;

They marveled at the lurid tales he

And drank his health and praised

'Twixt fondncss for the Fool and

Not which to cling 20 which to leave

Which to cast off, to which they
should be true.

The Middlebury Co-Operative Associations
Fine showing at Annual Meeting.
The annual meeting of the MiddleouIy
Co operative Creamery association was
held in the basement of the town hall
Saturday evening. Pres. Isaac Rogers
called the meeting to order. Owing to
the serious sickness of the secretary, Ola
X. IIOughtOn, there was not "A full report
by the secretary. John +. Weeks, the
treasurer, was elected secretary pro ten.
He said that he could but tell of the
amount of business done, but felt that
the association should be congratulated
on making so good a showing against
great odds and that especial praise should
be given Mr.. Gleason, the butter maker.
who made the phenomenal showing of
not one lot of poor butter during the sea-
son just ended. The creamery produced
G9,329 pounds of butter from May | 1900,
to Jan. |, 1901, which netted Sl3, 10 81
to the patrons. The amount of net re-
turn and the price per pound for each
month was as follows: May Ia cents,
June II, July Ia, August 20, September
1913, October 20, November %, December

pound. The cost of making the butter
was u cents II pound. This cost will
doubtless be lessened, as the directors
have substituted coal for wood as fuel in
running the engine, finding that coal is
One-third cheaper John Higgins of the
Addison used 1926 pounds and Joseph
Battell at Bread Loaf Inn consumed 1874
pounds. The above mentioned parties
paid the same price AS the butter would
have Melted in market. That they were
suited with the quality is evidenced by
the amounts they bought. The outlook
for the coming year is bright, as new pat
rons are promised to furnish milk. The
plant cost $3.50; $1,000 was paid in for
stock and mortgage given for $3.50. An
extra expense had been the laying of

1t is the purpose of the directors to put
aside certain percentage each month as
a permanent sinking fund to meet any
unusual expenses that may come up.
These statements were well received,
and the confidence felt in the manage
ment of the association was shown by
the reelection of the old officers in a
body.

Fashion Notes.

Ribbon ends are very much used with
all kinds of goods.
Velvet ribbon continues to find favor
in the eyes of the most fastidOus.
Storm skirts are worn promscuously,
but the fashionable storm skirt of today is
so long as to necesstate its being held up.
Muslin holds first place among the
materials for evening gowns.
The ordinary house gown has its skirt
longer than ever with very pronounced
flare at the bottom. The seven gored cut
with inverted box plates is by far the
most favored at present.
Laces of all kinds aud descriptions are
to be used for yokes and trimmings dur
ing the coming months.
At the beginning of the season the
winter hats babe fair to be large and well
covered with velvet, chiffon, and tips,
but as the winter has advanced the small
hats are being worn as much as ever
before.
The nobblest turbans are made cute
and bewltching by the use of fur only,
which must be OF shade becoming TO
the wearer.
One of the finest costumes for street
wear is made from dark blue serge
trimmed with fur. The jacket has a
blouse effect, and the hat must match the
gown.
Linen collars are fast going into the
background, and again we find the collar
made of the same material as the gown
or its trimmings. And the collar is
much trimmed, too. Though the cos
tune be very plain, the collar receives
some little decoration which shows the
feminine taste and the woman's love Of
trifies. The turnover collar IN either
point or moder lace is by far the most
popular decoration for plain collar now,
and 1t has won such universal favor that
1t is likely to remain in vogue for while.

Crooked eclipses 'gainst his glory fight,

And delves the parallels in beauty's brow;
Feeds on the rarities of natures truth,
And nothing stands but for his scl the to NOW,
And yet, to times in hope, my verse shall

Praising thy worth, despite his cruel hand.
That time of year thou may'st IN me behold
When yellow leaves, ornone, or few do hang
Upon those boughs which shake against the

Bare ruin'd choirs, where late the sweet birds

In me thou seest the twilight of such day,
AS after sunset fadeth in the west
Which by and by black night doth take

Deaths second self that seals up all in rest.
In me thou see'st the glowing of such fire,
That on the ashes of his youth doth lie,
AS the death bed wherein II must expire,
CONSUMED with that which II was nourished by.
This thou perceiv'st which makes thy love

To love that well which thou must leave ere
