and preoccupied manner, as he con-
tinued to write prescription. When
he finished he handed ii to the nurse,

"Well, come" AS if compelled, she
followed him into the consultation

Still standing, he adjusted the tubes
to her ears and placed the receiving
plate over his own heart. A flush of
surprise mounted to her cheek, for the
flood of life blood flowing through his
heart sounded like a waterfall over
rocks, so exaggerated were the sounds
by the instrument. "All my life, Lena,
every pulsation of my heart has been
for you. Decide, now, girl" his voice
was tense. "Shall / be to you hence
forth scientific abstraction or your
husband?" Standing, still heart high
to the man, she handed him the stetho-
scope and placed the sound receiving
plate over her own heart. He listened
but one eager moment, and then threw
the instrument to the other side of
the room.
His boyhood and his manhood hopes
were justified, The eventuation was
due to the stethoscope. Every man
ought to have one.

THE CARE OF CATS.

A new book, entitled" Pussy Meow"
has appeared, in which the author,
Louise Patteson, essays to do for the
cat what Black Beauty" did for the
horse. The story is told by the cat
and the book contains many hints as
to the proper treatment and care of
these animals.
The only reason that cats have not
been eXterminated by the juvenile
population of civilized countries is that
they have retained enough of their
wild instincts and training to defend
themselves. Their ever ready claws
generally secure them immunity from
too pressing personal attentions, and
their ability to climb trees gives them
an avenue of escape from their natural
enemy, the dog. But for all that,
they suffer in many ways from the
carelesssness or deliberate cruelty of
the people among whom they live.
They are left in deserted houses with
out food they are given no water to
drink-and that means that they can
not keep themselves clean in the nat
ural way; and some men even think
it is fun to set their dog on every cat
they can find. Little pains is taken,
as a rule, to develop their intelli
gence or affection, and they are re.
garded for the most part as necessary
evils, or useless pets.
That cat is as intelligent as dog,
no one who has had much to do with
them can doubt. There are many in
stances on record of cats which were
devotedly fond of their owners; ant
of late many animal trainers have
successfully undertaken to teach then
tricks. If people would only take
pains to treat their own cats well, and
dispose of every homeless, forlorn
uncared for cat they see skulkinl
about the alleys, the cat population al
a whole would repay the trouble.

LOOKING BACKWARD.

"This is the beginning of the second
year of of the Twentieth Century and
it seems to me appropriate that we
should pause for moment and look
backward" said member of the cabi-
net on Monday. six years ago Mr..
Mckinley assumed the responsible du-
ties of the presidency. He was con-
fronted by sadly depleted treasury,
as a result of democratic tariff tinker
ing; the prosperity of the country
was waning from similar causes a
condition of affairs prevailed i'll Cuba
which was abhorrent to all right
thinking people. Without stopping to
review the history of those six years
look at the situation of today"
1.-THE treasury is bursting with a
surplus aggregating 1851, 900, 600 in
GLIDING the gold reserve, of which
1921, 600, 600 is actually in gold coin or
bullion. The country is enjoying a
prosperity never before equalled. At
fairs in Cuba are prosperous and she
will soon be a free and Independent
sister republic The United States
has demonstrated her military prowess
to an extent that has commanded the
aspect of the world and will make
the Monroe Doctrine easy of mainten-
ance. We are the owners of fair
land in the antipodes which will in
time become one of the most prosper
GUS colonies, civil government in the
Philippines is being rapidly extended
andd with peace will come CONNER
cial prosperity such as never could
have been hoped for under Spanish
rule. Everything bids fair for the
construction of the isthmian canal
which will add to the prosperity of
our Western states.

BATTLESHIPS.

Washington, Dec. 28.-The gather
ing of German warships in the vicin-
ity of Venezuela, and the presence in
the same locality of many American,
British, French and other foreign
warships, is directing attention to
the imminence of the naval demon
stration Germany is about to make
against Venezuela Thus far the Ger
man government has not made known
the exact details of her proposed move,
the official communications to the
United States being confined to an in
quiry as 60 the attitude of the govern
ment on the question of a demonstra-
ton in view of the purpose on the
part of Germany not to acquire any
permanent foothold iii Venezuela,
The answer of this government was
entirely satisfactory to the German
authorities who since have proceeded
with the execution of their plans for
coercing Venezuela 1t is said to be
probable that the first move by Ger
many will be the establishment of a
blockade of Venezuelan ports so as
to prevent the introduction of food
products into Venezuela and thus
starve the besieged into submission.
Venezuela, it is said, is entirely de-
pendent on the outside world for its
supply of corn, which is staple
among the Venezuelans. The Ger.
mans are expected to occupy one or
more of the main ports of Venezuela,
probably La Guiara and Maracaibo.
On the part of Venezuela it is semi
officially understood that President
Castro has made known that he is pre-
pared for any eventuality. The reli-
ance of Venezuela appears to be on
the practical difficulties Germany will
encounter Venezuela herself, it is
asserted, has no need of outside sup
plies and while corn is much used,
in an emergency, there are many
other cereals which can be put into
use.

DEWEY AND MILES.

Admiral Dewey will hardly take
very closely to heart the indirect cen
sure of Secretary Long for his report
vindicating Rear Admiral Schley, nor
need General Miles pine under the
direct censure of secretary Root, of
the war department, for his expressed
opinion that, as the officer in actual
command, Schley was entitled to such
honor as accrues to commander in
battle.
The people are behind both the COM
mander- in chief of the army and of
the navy in the stand they have taken
in this controversy. Did the honors
of Copenhagen go to Hyde Parker, the
admiral in command of the British
fleet, who viewed the fight from dis
tance, or to Nelson, second in COM
mand, but who was in the thick of
the fight and who won the victory
Did the supreme honor of the Shenan-
doah campaign, ending in the victory
at Cedar creek, accrue to Grant, the
commander in chief, or TO Sheridan,
in actual command ON the scene of ac-
ton? The brilliant campaign ending in
the capture of Atlanta-did first hon
ors go to Grant or to Sherman? And,
at Nashville, to Thomas, or to his
superior in command?
In all these instances, and others
that might be cited, the general com
manding the army, the admiral di-
recting the fleet, was as actively en-
gagged in the campaign or battle as
was Sampson at Santiago de Cuba.
1t is gratifying to have in command
of the military forces of the nation
men who are big enough, brave and
generous enough, to disregard the au-
tocrats of the departments to do justice
to a comrade in arms. 1t is a quiet
and wholesome sort of rebellion
against the tyranny of discipline. 1t
The Vermont watchman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1883-1911, 1902-01-01

lent of an entire removal of the pres
ent duty.
There is good ground for the belief
that the sugar trust is not entirely
averse to the reduction or entire re-
moval of the duty on Philippine
sugar, and if this is the fact, it is a
consistent expectation to look for an
effort to amend the Philippine tariff
bill in the Senate in the manner in
Dictated. This would obviate all &C
tion on the Dingley tariff, and would
forestall any move toward reciprocity
with Cuba. The Louisiana cane inter
ests, if at all, would be inappreciably
injured by this kind of legislation,
and the beet sugar interests would be
able to keep their heads above water
and go on with their factories. 1t is
a demonstrated fact that the beet sugar
business is able to make Roadway, if
legitimately conducted, against almost
any competition.
