Brad street' Vermont Weekly
Trade RepOr

The pleasant weather for the past week
has had a gratifying effect upon both the
business and the agricultural situation.
In place of the discouraging reports as to
the corn crop which have been received
for the past month there is now a pros
pect of a fair crop if there is late sea-
son. The past week has been marked by
an intense activity in a political campaign
but it does not appear TO have materially
affected business in general. The man
ufacturers are reasonably busy for the
season of the year which is usually some
what quiet. Wholesale business is good
and collections are satisfactory. Re-
tail trade has been stimulated by the
improved weather and prospects for a
good Fall trade are encouraging. Bust
ness in Burlington is good. The obbers
are finding a good demand for staples
and no complaint heard as to payments;
retail trade good. There appears to be a
constant Improvement in the business
situation at Winooski largely due to the
efforts that are being made to improve
the conditions of the large mill property
and to the increased employment which
the business affords. Rutland reports
manufacturing Interests well employed
with the exception of the two machine
shops which have unsettled strikes on
hand. Retail trade and collections fair.
Crops good as rule but late and corn
not ripening. In st. Johnsbury the scale
business is rushing. Collections fair,
aud crops good except corn which is late.
Vergennes reports business In all lines
about as usual. In Morrsville the man
ufacturies are dong well, retail trade
good, collections fair. The hay crop is
good, potato crop fair, although injured
somewhat By too much rain; good prices
are being received for all crops. Mont
pelier reports business good for the sea
son Of the year The granite sheds are
busy and labor well employed. A new
gas company is constructing plant and
laying mains in the streets. Retail trade
is good and collections satisfactory. In
Barre the usual activity is noted and
local cOnGi tiOns indicate reasonable
degree of prosperity. Retail trade is
good, conditions of agricultural crops is
good The manufactures are doing well
at Northfield, retail trade is favorable
and collections fair. Crops good but a
| little late for corn. Bethel reports no
change in the business situation. Retail
trade and collections fair and the cOndi-
| ton of crops is good.

order business in the United States has
been one of the marvellous features of
our national progress. Established in
1861. the money order system applied to
but 40 offices at the end of June in 1860.
For the year closing in that month it did
a business of 81 ,122 and exhibited a
working deficit of S7047. In all the
years since then there has been grow
ing surplus. In 1901 the number of
domestic money orders issued was 3d.
5SG,319. calling for S214, 54G, 0G7.

He was such little fellow and 1t
was so early in February that at first
what he was doing was not plain. TO
be sure he could be seen, sitting in the
failing light and bending his little body
over the pad of paper on his lap. His
tongue was nervously held between two
rows of shining teeth and he grasped
the pen as If he feared it would get
away from him in an unexpected mo-
ment. AS 1t was, the blots upon the
paper must have been many. He was
very clever, he was. OF course having
only been in school a few weeks he
couldn't be expected to know how to
lspell very WE'LL but he did real well with
assistance. How do you spell time :
he would say. II never heard of such
word" the grown-up deep in late
hook said. "Oh. well, If there were
such word, how would 1t be spelled?'
the little voice went on. 1t was a new
idea, but phonetically the words were
spelled. There was a silence as She
turned the page of her book and the
pen went scratch, scratch across the
paper. printing the words she had said.
But that was not all. I'm word Is
there always an + or an 'e' before an
n % he asked. Yes, yes!" came the
answer. as she read on to learn If the
hero did kill the enemy or If the en-
envy killed him. The scratching took
less time now and then he said. Does
" begin the word 'val'?" "Oh. l sup
pose So" she said. II never heard of
such word, but 1 suppose it does" The
pen began to work again. 1T looks
kind-of broken in pieces" he said to
himself, as he began to copy what he
had written in laborious manner. The
grown-up put down her book. The
hero had killed the enemy. Then she
saw the little boy. You'd better hurry"
she said. ''or you won't be in time to
meet papa at the car" He jumped to
his feet, sticking in his pocket the piece
of paper on which he had been work
ing. She struck a match to light the
lamp and began picking up the papers
and the sewing left in confusion. A
dirty crumpled piece of paper covered
with irregular printing was in her
hand. She read 1t and then put 1t In
bis little desk. so he would know that
she had seen 1t. One might have
thought there was a tear in her eve.
Yet all the paper said was Mamma,
bee mi VALENTINE"

People are sometimes slow to recog

blamed, for so many in the past have
been humbugged. The experience OF
hundreds of Marshalltown residents
expressed publicly thru newspapers

Mrs. w. H. Price, of S03 Summit

that Doan's Kidney Pills, sold at Nc

evidences of a disturbed condition OF

Importance because there are a great

seems to be one of the ills to which
