Musical Festival, March 1T.

Where such artists as Anita Rio as
Marguerite, Ion Jackson as Faust, Fred
eric Martin as Mephistopheles, Adelaide
Griggs as Martha and Siebel, are appear
ing in the magnificent opera, Faust, it is
no wonder that the supply OF tickets for
the advance sac are almost exhausted.
People are beginning to realize that the
musical festival of 1903 is to be one of
the finest ever given here and that st.
Johnsbury has the honor of bringing
before the public the greatest artists
appearing in Festival work.
One OF the pls asing numbers on one of
the concert programs is the cantata,
Hiawathas Wedding Feast" to be
given at the second concert. This beau
titul cantat1 has been recently given in
Boston, grta.ly pleasing large audiences,
and is but one OF the many attractive
features OF an attractive Festival. Miss
Griggs and Mr.. Martin have recently
appeared at the Littleton festival, where
they did splendid work and were great
favorites. March 2-7 are the dates.

made Of fg-red Japanese crepe with

but all the materials used for negli-
gees are appropriate. Simple cotton
brepes, lawns and the like are always
pretty, while the many light weight
French and Scotch fannels, cashmere

more delightful lines and folds, but
the round ones, shown in the back

The kimono is made with fronts and
back that are shirred and arranged

Ssoft folds from that point to the floor.
The sleeves are cut in one piece each,
and they, with the neck and front
edges, are finished with bands.
The quantity of material required

A Fashion Fancy.

The smart girl has a new use for
heavy silk cord. She is again demon
strating her cleverness by converting it
into a novel corsage decoration. The
silk cord is thick and preferably black,
and here and there she sews to it big
black passementerie balls. These balls
are sometimes Of silk, and sometimes
are studded with jet beads. To look
effective the cord should be at least
five yards long. She winds it loosely
about her neck, crossing it in the back,
and keeping one end longer than the
other; she does the same thing over
and over again, until she has four
loops arranged in festoon fashion over
the front of her waist, with each loop
longer than the last. After she has
made four loops, she ties the two ends
at the left side in a bow, the ends OF
which are either finished with black
silk tassels or passementerie balls.
This cord corsage decoration gives a
touch of charm and newness to plain
waist, and is q happy variation from
the bead chains.-Woman's Home Com

why Many Men Drink.

The Dean of Rochester, writing to hor.
ticultural correspondent. recommends veg
etable growing as conducive to temper.
ance. Get a man to take pains with his
vegetables, says the Dean, and you will
do more TO keep him sober than all the
blue ribbons and pledges worn and signed" !"
There is here the practical statement Of
a fact which extends far beyond the vege-
table garden, and which is too often over
looked. Drinking for the most part is
a proof of nothing so much as q lack Of
interest in life. A workingman who has
no resources outside his round of daily
toll goes when it is over to the public
house simply because there is nothing else
for him to do to escape being bored. He
is too tired to read, even if he cared much
about reading, and he can scarcely be ex.
pected to sit wrapped in meditation.
Hence, even if his wife be thrifty and his
home well kept, the temptation is strong
to betake himself to the public house,
where at least he can meet and talk with
his fellows. Give him a counter attrac.
tion-something that he likes and can take
a personal interest in-and the public
house at once begins to lose its compelling
power This has been demonstrated over
ana over again where workingmen have
been supplied, or have supplied themselves,
with machinery for rational recreation.--
