New School Building.

The dedication of the new North street
school building took place at Claremont
April 10. Prior to the exercises the
building committee escorted the visitors
about, showing them the principal feat
ureS of the structure. The dedicatory
exercises began at o'clock, and there
was large attendance, both of citizens
and teachers, with many pupils. Ex-
Congressman II. w. Parker was the pre-
siding officer, and the first number on
the program was song by the pupils of
grade one. This was followed by prayer
by Rev. j. NJ. Wathen, pastor of the
Congregational church. Rev. A. p. Reid
made forceful speech in regard to edu-
cation and schools, and Supt. Charles
Tracy followed with Our Schools and
briefly told of the existing conditions
and needs, Ira G.. Colby spoke on
"Stevens High School," and the program
concluded with song by the school chill
dren, and remarks by citizens The KEYS
were presented by f. H. Foster, chair
man'of the building committee, and were
accepted by DR.. II. G. Sanders, chairman
of the school board. The benediction
was pronounced by Rev. w. II. Trickey,
pastor of the Universalist church.
The new school building is not one
that would be called pretentious. nor is
it triumph of architectural art; but
a fine looking building, substantially
built, ventilated and heated. 1t has
75-foot frontage and depth of so feet.
1t is built of brick, with granite trim
mings and slated roof. The grounds
are neatly graded and concrete walk
encircles the building.
The building is occupied by two first
grades, one second grade and one third
grade. The teachers have taught in
town for number of years, and it is
very pleasing to record the fact that both
teachers and pupils are very enthusiastic
over their new home.
The cost of the building including the
lot, was $4,000. The building commit
tee was composed of F. H. Foster, chair;
man, A. p. Rein, George Hunton, James
Rice and G. A. Tracy, to whom the town
is indebted for the very thorough man.

Letter to E. !. KiIburn.
BELLOWS FALLS, VT.

Dear Sir: The cost of labor in painting a
house is three times the cost of the paint.
You seem to save little when you buy a
lower priced paint, but you certainly add
to the cost of labor when you pay for
spreading more gallons.
You don't even save on the paint. Devoe
Lead and Zinc costs little more than
mixed paints, but it takes fewer gallons,
and the cost is actually less.
Wears longer too-longer than mixed
paints, longer than lead and oil.
You don't save cent.
Mr.. c. Loeb, a painter in Magnolia,
Miss, writes:
After years of experiments with mixed
paints, l find that your paint covers more
surface to the gallon than any / have ever
used. For density and wearing qualities
it cannot be eXcelled.
Compared with lead and oil: A house
belonging to the president of the Croton
River bank at Brewsters, n. Y, (cost S31 =
OOO) was painted with lead and oil in 'S4 at
cost of $500. In 'S7-three years it was
reprinted with Devoe at cost of $3.50. In
'97 the house was still all right.
Result: lead and oil-cost 800, wear
three years; Devoe-cost $3.50, wear ten
years.
Yours truly,
f. w. DEvoE & Co.,
New York.

STATE NOTES.
The Saloon in Montpelier.

The first licensed saloon under the new
law was opened the morning of April 10,
that of L. y. Wood on the corner of Elm
and Court streets, Montpelier. Mr..
Woods sales were extraordinarily large.
Atan early hour that morning before
the saloon was opened considerable
crowd had assembled in anticipation of
thejoyful occasion.
The clerks of the store were on hand
at $50 o'clock in the morning and even
by that time group had gathered on
the sidewalk. The store was not opened,
however, until 6 o'clock. From that
time until the afternoon Mr.. Wood and
his clerk were kept busy. Beer seemed
to be the favorite drink, although not a
little whskey was disposed of. Mr..
Wood refused three customers as he
thought they were Barre people. lie al
so thought they were little under the
influence of liquor Mr.. Wood has a
Second-clasS license.
Mr.. Woods store was also the center
OF attraction the evening before while
the Proprietor was getting his wares in
readiness for the opening next morning.
The curtains of the store were not drawn
and crowd of curious people, both men
and women, gathered on the sidewalk to
witness the unusual sight.
One side of the store was covered with
an array of bottles, whose labels were
not unfamiliar to many of the crowd
gathered outside and the knowing ones
exchanged occasional grins as they noted
the progress of the proprietor's work.

CLARE ONT.

Joseph P. Mann, one of the machinists'
strikers, went to work in the shop Thurs
day morning Such is the statement of Sec
rotary Hatton of the local lodge. Mr.. Hat
ton told a reporter that he had telegraphed
Mann's actions to the International board
and that they had imposed fine of $500
upon Mann for going to work. This action
of the headquarters may put damper on
any of the others who might think of going
back to work. Although the machine COM
pany has said that not man would return,
they must have changed their minds, as here
is case where the rule didn't work. Secre-
tary Hatton said that number of Polanders

THURSDAY, APRIL %, 1908.
New Hampshire

A contract with the Manchester Trac-
ton, Light and Power company for the
lighting of the city at the rate of 800 per
light, and to extend over term of five
years, has been practically agreed upon
by the Manchester board of mayor and
aldermen, after considering a PROPOSE
ton offering such terms from that cor
poration.
The dwelling house, barn and out
buildings owned by j. j. Sawyer Of
South Hampton We're burned Wednes-
day of last week. The family had mar
row escape from being burned to death.
Mr.. Sawyer places the total loss at $4,000
with an insurance of $1,000. There were
four COWS, horse, and lot of poultry
in the barn, and these were all burned to
death. The cause of the fire is I'M
known.
A mass-meeting of farmers was held
at Contoocook last week attended by
many from surrounding towns, and reso-
lutions were passed directed to the secre-
tary of agriculture at Washington, to
the governor of the state, to the United
States senators and congressman and to
the cattle commission. 1t is set forth
that, in following up the foot and mouth
disease, whole herds of cattle and other
domestic animals have been killed by
government officials, when only part
were diseased, causing great financial
loss to the owners; and further, doubt is
expressed as to the genuineness of the
alleged disease. An investigation is
asked, and quarantine rather than
slaughter suggested.

C. N. SHAW'S STATEMENT
Mi=o=na Costs You Nothing If 1t Does
Not Cure.

Mi=o=na Costs You Nothing If 1t Does
Not Cure.
To the Editor of the TINES
The unusual statements in the advertise
ments 1 have published for Mi-o-na have
that said in regard to this preparation.
The best reply 1 can make is to publish
over my signature statement of what
Mi-o-na will do and the unusual terms I'M
der which 1 am selling it.
1. Nine-tenths of all sickness is caused
by some kind of indigestion. AS Mona
cures indigestion in any form and restores
healthy action tC the whole digestive tract,
it will cure nearly every case of poor
health.
2. The dyspeptic is ordinarily thin and
.emaciated, with sallow complexion, sunken
cheeks and flabby flesh. Mona will cure
dyspepsia and those who use it will find
every part of the body filling out with firm,
solid flesh, so that all the outlines become
plump and pleasing.
g. The benefit from Mi-o-na is not mere
ly Temporary. This remedy aids diges ton
and restores natural and healthy action to
the digestive organs so that a permanent
cure results.
4. The strongest evidence l can give of
my faith in Mi-o-na is my personal agree
ment to return the money if it does not
give satisfaction Although l have sold
hundreds of packages under this guaran-
tee, yet only one out of every hundred has
asked to have the money returned l am
always ready to refund the price of Mi-o-na
to any one who is not satisfied with it..
Respectfully yours,
G. y. SHAW,
Andrews Drug Store.
