OF late he is undoubtedly the best first
sacker in the business. And right close
up tc Carey is the big Swede on the first

Among Newark's newcomers are Ray
D. White, a pitcher who has been doing
good work in the box for the Raleigh IN.
CO team, member of the same league as
was Applegate, in whom Burnham has
apparently secured a good man; Jake
Drauby, who has played on almost as
many teams as Henry Lynch; Aruthr
Dcvlin, something of an experiment at
second base; McCauley, who was catch
ing with Providence, until his hitting cost
him his release, and Thakera, catcher
of some experience.

But what's the use of signing?
They're soonest with their duties through
Who bravely keep on trying.
There's no advantage to be found
In sorrcwing or Sinking;
They with success are soonest crowned
Who just go right on working.
Strive patiently and with a will
That shall not be defeated;
Keep singing at your task until
You see it stand completed.
Nor let the clouds of doubt draw near.
Your sky's glad sunshine murking;
Be brave and fill your heart with. cheer.
And just go right on working.

MEDICAL TALK, A FAMILY MAG
AZINE.

Medical Talk is the name of one of
the most recent of popular medical
magazines for the home before the
public today 1t appears in an uni
que, up-to-date magazine cover, az
ornament to any library table.
Medical Talk is in the fourth year
of its existence and covers q field
never before accomplished in journa-
ism. This magazine undertakes to
interpret to the people what is going
on in the medical world as revealed
by the numberless medical journals
intended for the doctors only. 1t
brings to the household important
facts hidden from the people by med
ical technicalities. 1t deals in a pop
ular way with such questions as
vaccination, sanitary laws, cremation,
dietary rules, and all drugless methods
of healing disease
During the past three months almost
every leading daily paper through
out the United States and Canada has
had something to say about Medical
Talk, either editorially or in their
Magazine and Book Department. The
opinions expressed are of a most COM
plimentary nature.

cal Talk Publishing Co., Columbus,

of officials are Vermont men, and it
has director in every county in the
State, resident there, and, like the
President and his assistant officials,
known to the people and directly APP
proachable by policy holders or those
seeking insurance Officials of all
grades in this company are but the ser
wants of the policy holders-the stock
holders. They have proved their
business skill their efficiency and
fidelity. They have, and can have,
no other object or interest in the per-
Torrance of their duties but to pro
vide the best attainable insurance at
the lowest cost consistent with the
abiding solvency of the company {;
they have, and can have, no object or
interest in the adjusting of losses
than a just and fair settlement under
the policy contract as to what ell the
other policy holders shall pay the one
who has lost. In a stock company
every dollar pared off from the loser
appraisal goes to swell the dividends
of the stockholders.
Hundreds oS insurance companies
have come to Vermont to do business
many have failed and passed away,
but the "Old Mutual abides, stead
fast as the hills amid which it was
graded ard has grown to vigorous man
hood-progressive always, and al

exclusively confined. 1t iucurs no

LETTER FROM c. H. NEwCOMB.
Journal Reader.
Aug. 25, 1902.

Editor Daily Journal: In an
article printed in the Daily Journal q
few days ago, stating the nominees
for the town of Waitsfeld my name
was used as the Clement candidate.
There has not been question asked me
as to whom / should vote for for Gov
ernor in connection with my nomina-
ton, and | certainly have not pledged
myself for any one.
am a Republican and believe in
their principles, endorse the referen-
dun plank in their platform think
the matter should be settled by vote
of the people, taking it out of party
lines, and if better law than the
prohibitory law can be provided,
whereby our boys and young men es-
pecially (for they are the ones to
whom we shall have to look for the
result in the coming years. will have
less temptation, one that the people
in gene raj would be better satisfied
with, would be more than glad to
support such change. The matter
of who shall be our next Governor is
not the issue in Waitsfield. There are
Mccullough and Clement men in both
rings, and anything to have their ring
victorious is the issue, which fact II
am sorry to say is too true.
for one long for the time to come
when the voters of this town will
come together and break the rings
which separate them, elect the best
men for officers, and treat each other
as townsmen and friends. l would
gladly resign in Bro. Eaton's favor
if such could be the case, as far as |
am concerned. This is no new sug-
gestion as many have heard me make
like remarks before.
In our fight for Representative l
hope there will be no mud flung by
my friends who support me, and no
unlawful or unjust advantage taken
in any way Our rights at the ballot
box are sacred rights to the rich and
poor alike, thank God, and let us en-
joy that right, barring no one who
is legal voter. l thank my friends
for the honor they bestow upon me in
nominating me for Representative and
trust all to my friends for the rest
