The state fair will be held at Rutland
the first week in September The com
mittee i'm charge has appropriated $500 for
special attractions and $500 for horse

DR. *. S. HaslSins. 50. of Derby, died
Thursday from the effects of drinking pos-
on by mistake. The poison was used for
washing trees. For several years. he had
been a prominent fruit grower and nur-
seryman
Burglars forced an entrance into the
Montpelier & Wells River railroad sta
ton at East Montpelier Friday night and
took $2l from the money drawer They
also entered the grist mill nearby but
found only few pennies there.
T. e. O'Grady. farmer in Mortified
was robbed of Sl05 Sunday. The police are
hunting for Harry Coy, who had been at
work a week for OGradN on the farm.
The money was stolen from bureau
drawer while Mr.. O'Grady was at
church
1t is probable that the annual muster
of the National Guard will be held earlier
this year than is usual. probably from
August to 3. This is owing principally
to the fact that the term of enlistment
of a large number of the men expires
about the middle of the month, and
again the usual time of holding muster,
during the week of August g. would bring
Old Home Week and muster week at
the same time and inconvenience many
of the members.

Democratic State Convention in Bur.
Iinuton, July "a.

Eight of II members of the state Demo-
cratic committee met at Burlington Fri
day night in conjunction with several
members of two congressional district
committees and decided to hold state
and both district conventions in Burling-
ton July "a. R. S. Childs of Bratteboro
was selected as temporary chairman and
Elisha May of ST. Johnsbury, chairman
of committee on resolutions. 1t is ex-
pected that Felix w. McGettrick of st.
Adams will be the candidate for COVER
nor. Considerable interest was taken in
the meeting owing to the action the
committee might take in regard to the
candidacy of p. w. Clement for COVER
nor. Although the matter was dis
cussed each member of the committee
refused to make any statement as to the
sentiment of those present.

Senator Dillineham's Strength.
Burlington Free Press.

One of the duties incumbent upon
the legislature to be elected in Septem-
Der will be the choice of a United
States senator for the seat now held
by the Hon. William p. Dillingham;.
The manner in which Senator Dilling-
ham has discharged the duties of his
responsible position and the respect
and influence he has won at Washing
ton during the comparatively short
time he has been a member of the
upper branch of Congress, have COM
bined to prove that Vermont made no
mistake when he was chosen as sue
cessor to the lamented Senator Nor
rill. Senator Dillinghams modesty
and good sense saved him at the out
set from some of the mistakes made
by new senators in violating time
honored traditions of that body. while
his work in the committee room as
well as on the floor of the senate in
the discussion of various measures
stamped him as a useful and credi-
table legislator and won for him the
respect and the esteem of his sena-
torial colleagues
The press of Vermont has voiced the
popular sentiment in favor of Senator
Dillingham's reelection with degree
of unanimity that is as gratifying to
his host of friends as it is creditable to
him, and the course of various Republi-
can county conventions in recognizing
his service as a legislator and his
worth as a man Is unquestionably in
harmony with the sentiments of the
great body of his constituents. Sena-
tor Dillingham; has reflected pro-
nounced credit on Vermont, and she
will honor herself in honoring him
with a reelection.

The Penny We Meant to Gle,

There's funny tale of stingy man.
Who was none too good but might have
been worse.
Who went to church on Sunday night
And carried along his well filled purse
When the sexton came with his begging
plate,
The church was but dim with the can
dies light
The stingy man fumbled all through his
purse.
And chose coin by touch. not sight
It's an odd thing now that guineas should
be
So like unto pennies in shape and size.
I'm give n penny" the stingy man said /:
The poor must not gifts of pennies
despise"
The penny fell down with a clatter and
ring
And back in his seat leaned the stIngy
man.
THE world is so full of the poor" he
thought.
II can't help them ALL give what I
can"
Ha. ha, how the sexton smiled. to be
sure
To see the gold guinea fall into his

wrung.
Perceiving his blunder. but just too
late!
mo matter" he said: lin the Lords ac-
count
That guinea of gold is set down to me.
They lend to him who give to the poor:
1t will not so bad an investment be-"
Ma. ma mon" the chuckling sexton
cried out:
THE Lord is ma cheated He kens
thee well:
He knew 1t was only by accident
That out o. thy fingers the guinea fell
He keeps an account, no doubt. for the
pur:
But in that account he'll set down to
thee
Ma mair o. that golden guinea, my mon,
Than the one bare penny we meant TO
giei'
There's comfort too, in the little tale
A serious side as well as a joke;
, A comfort for all the generous poor;
In the comical words the sexton spoke.
A comfort TO think that the good Lord
knows
How generous We really desire to be:
And will give us credit in his account
For all the pennies we long to gle

Mrs. Henriette C. Olberg, superinten-
dent Flax and Hemp Exhibition at the
Omaha Exhibition, writes from Albert
Lea, Mimi, as follows:
"7Tis spring contracted an agra
waiting cold, having been exposed to the
damp weather Cafarrh of my throat
and head followed, which persisted in
remaining, notwithstanding I applied
the usual remedies.
"Reading of the merits of Peruna in
the papers, I decided to try it and soon
found that all that has been said of your
medicine in such cases is true.
az am very pleased with the satisfac-
tory results obtained from using Peruna,
am entirely well, and consider it a most
valuable family medicine"
HENRIETTE @. OLBERG.
Summer colds require prompt treat
menf. They are always grave, and
sometimes dangerous. The prompt
ness and surety with which Peruna
acts in these cases has saved many
lives. A large dose of Peruna should
be taken at the first appearance of a cold
in summer, followed by small and Oft
repeated doses. There is no other rem
edy that medical science can furnish, so
reliable and quick in its action as Peruna.

pany, Columbus, Ohio, for free book
entitled "Summer Catarrh," which
treats of the catarrhal diseases peculiar
to summer.
