Another Progressive Middlebury Boy.
Mr.. Editor Carlyle Granger Lang
worthy, son of a. ii. Langworth, an
enterprising youth of nine years, is quite
a business man. He has COW, four
years old and is raising from her this
season fine calf. The COW he pur-
chased when a calf of c. y. Dickinson
for 81. Both COW and calf will compare
favorably with any in town. He is also
quite hen farmer. He has shown us an
egg measuring 64X74 inches and weigh
ing ) o., which is the kind his hens lay.
We think this young man has brilliant
future before hlm, guided as he Is by the
counsels of good mother. In this free
republic what can not a boy attain who is
industrious and persevering and who
does not think he must wear chilled
shirt" and help hold up the stone bridge
If more Vermont boys had his habits of
industry and saving, there would be
fewer boys in the reform schools, etc. |

saw yellow ridges of gold dust. To the

down in the valley she saw a sea of
smoke Around her were huge bowl

Above were stars of undesirable Ius-

not at a premium just then, but he (the
sheriff) gave her advice to hold on to
what she had That settled Miss Davis.
The first year Miss Davis owned the

year gold was discovered in ravine
near her property and the assessment
was raised to $44. This she paid. She
calculates that it will be fifty times
this sum when the assessor interviews
her representative in January next.
Miss Davis confesses that she does
