Letter to C. n. Small.
Norris vile. Vt.

Dear Sir: You naturally want to
make your own and your customers
money go as far as possible. So, in
the general interest, we tell you why
tower gallons of-Devo5-Eeadt- sHnu ZINC
will paint house than mixed paints.
let's suppose you are~using lead
and oil. Instead of lead and oil you
put in four-ffths whiting, lime water,
and other stuff that doesn't paint at
all. Put that against a gallon OF
lead and oil, and what will it do?
One-ffth as much.
How much of your labor is wasted +?
Four-fifths. How good a lob will it
make? No comparison. How much
good will it do in your business to
turn out such a job?
And so on.
Davoe Lead and Zinc paints house
with fewer gallons than mixed paints,
and wears twice as long as lead and
oil.
Yours truly,
f. w. DEvoE & Co.,
New York.
P. s., Geo. W. Doty. Morrisville,
and L. M. Jones, Johnson sell our

Value OF Primary Schools.

Col. Charles A. Miles, of Brattle.
boro, il a recent local school meet
ing expressed some views upon edu-
cational matters which are worthy
of extended publicity and candid con-
sideration. Colonel Miles contended
that too many studies were taught
in the minor grades and that the oral
instruction was entirely out of pro-
portion to the written exercises, call
ing especial attention to the preju-
dicial effects on the eyesight of the
pupils under the present system. He
made a strong appeal for higher sal
aries for the teachers in the lower
grades. His contention was that
their work was quite as important,
if not much more important, than
that of the teachers of any grades in
the schools, the idea being the newer,
younger, fresher the mind, the easier
it is to train. There and only there
is the foundation laid. 1t is the
graded schools and the high schools
which must advance, prune and cul-
tivate this well laid foundation of
knowledge. The lower schools are
the foundation of the educational
structure, and they are in all respects
the more important Northfeld

NEW WAY TO TREAT HAY FEVER.
No Stomach Distinguish Breathe Hyomei
STOPS Sneezing and Smartinq.


Hall & Cheney are recommending to
their customers, as cure for hay
fever, Hyomei.
1t is claimed for this remedy that
it stops the spasmodic paroxysms of
sneezlng, the smarting and running
OF the eyes and nose, and other acute
symptoms of this disease.
Many persons have been cured of
hay fever by Hyomei and its invent
ors profess to be able to prevent both
the occurrence of the annual attacks
and to arrest the progress of the dis
ease when in the most chronic form.
Among those who have been cured
by Hyomei are j. F. Forbes, chief
dispatcher B. & M. r. R., McCook,
Neb., who writes CT never had re-
lief from hay fever even temporarily,
until L used Hyomei. will always
recommend it whenever occasion Of
fers.
A. Hamlin, Westford, Mass, writes,
"Hyomei cured me of hay fever In
one weeks time. consider 1t duty
to tell Others who suffer from this
disease"
These endorsements are samples of
hundreds that have been received by
the manufacturers of Hyomei, but
Hall d Cheney's offer to refund the
money If Hyomei does not do all
that Is claimed for 1t, Is the strongest
proof that can be offered as to the
reliance they place upon Hyomei to
cure hay fever.

For good practical benefits the
Akeley memorial building in Stowe
meets the requirements exactly, and
the donor had the right idea when he
planned a building to be used for the
every day affairs of the village. AS
constructed the building can be util-
lied for nearly all the purposes which
the civic life of the community de-
mands, including Offices for the town
officials, court room, voting place,

DR.. BrenIzer' Barn Burns.

Fire occurred Monday afternoon on the
farm of DR.. Theo. Brenizer, near Andov-
er, Mo-, which resulted in the total loss
of the building, corn, hay, farm imple.
ments, wagons standing near. etc.. we're
also consumed, the loss being as the
doctor estimates it, thousand dollars
or more.
The cause of the fire is not known
but it is believed to have started in the
southwest corner of the barn in the hay.
About an hour before he,was apprised
of it, the doctor and young man had
been in the barn; leaving it to prepare
some medicine called for. While put
ting up the medicine his wife apprised
him that the building was on fire. He
and Mr.. Haugas went out, took out
one horses, colt that had broken
limb, and few other articles; then 60
fng to another portion Of the barn to
get saddle his son had sent him, and
the door fell in on him and nothing
further could be saved.
The insurance had expired few days
before SO The loss is heavy.
This is the third time Mr.. Brenizer
has lost a barn by fire and one WAS

returned verdict of acquittal in both
cases.
L. 7. Genung, of Glenwood, made an
eloquent plea of two hours this morning
for the defendants. He ;dwelt particu-
larly upon the fact that all of the evil
dence produced had been of circum-
stantial nature. 1t was followed by
Attorney sarton OF this city, who closed
his plea just at the noon hour.
In the afternoon County Attorney
Klllpack made strong argument on
behalf of the state for the conviction of
the defendants. He made masterly
effort, and at times had his auditors in
tears as he described the enormity of
the crime and the alleged manner in
which it had been committed.
The instructions of Judge w. r. Green
were short. He told the jury that it
was possible for them to find either one
or both of the defendants guilty of mur-
der in the first degree, or that either one
or both might be discharged, as they
found the evidence to warrant.

From the dedication of this booklet we

of sylvan Businesses or romantic cliffs

Then SO far as snowfall is concerned the

three inches-hardly enough to damper

Last year the Colorado passenger busi-

than ever before. This year it was larg-
er than i. was last. The California trave
in particular is regarded as barometer
indicating good or bad business conditions
When large number of men 60 to Cali
fornia for the winter, or send their
families there, it shows that there has
been prosperous year for the communi-
ty. We are receiving an unusually large
number of inquiries regarding California
rates and accommodations and we expect
that our California business this winter
will be larger than ever. The people OF
the state are certainly making money and
there is not the faintest approach at pres
ent to hard times or panic conditions"
