is a call to young Christians to train
for church work.
1t is not with Christians that they
can be made once for all and left to
grow as they may. Christianity re-
qulfes constant attention. Christians
need to be confirmed and reconfrmed
and spoken to every day. There are
works (which, once done, are done for
ever, but Christianity is not one of
them. We have to watch until the end.

that every temptation begins in the
hrst faint suggestion. Deal with that,
and no power of the adversary can
prevail against you. Yield to that,
and sooner or later you will rue your
weakness and find that the innocent
looking egg contained a viper and that
the tiny, trickEng streamlet has be-
come a raging torrent, which carries
all before it in its ungoyernable pas
sion. The young Christian must work
against temptation and work ever to
bring others into the fold of the church.

Some people seem to be born in an
unhappy frame of mind. They cannot
admire excelIency without making
some comment on deficiencies. With
them the times are always out of
joint They are simply in critical
attitude, and nothing except grumbling
will satisfy their morbid condition.
They remind one very Strikingly of
the old lady who, when she was asked
how she felt, replied that she felt bet
ter but that when she felt better she
always felt worse, as she knew if she
felt better she was going to have
a worse spell again.
You perhaps desire to reach greater
heights Of power. You will reach them
easier if you smile, and help others as
you go.
Take your thoughts away from the
swamps of fear and evil, center them
on the ideals of faith and love, on good
intentions for others, and your face
will glow with happiness.

Robert Collyer.
There is every reason why the heart

Tendency of the Times,

The tendency of medical science is
toward preventive measures. The best
thought OF the world is being given to
the subject. It is easier and better to
prevent than to cure. II has been fully
demonstrated that pneumonia, one of
the most dangerous diseases that medi
cal men have to contend with, can be
prevented by the use of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. Pneumonia always re-
suits from cold or from an attack OF
influenza grip, aud it has been OBJ
served that this remedy counteracts any
tendency of these diseases toward pneu-
monia. This has been fully proven in
many thousands of cases in which this
remedy has been used during the great
prevalence of colds aud grip in recent
years, aud can be relied upon with i'm
plicit confidence. Pneumonia often re-
suits from slight cold when no danger
is apprehended until ii is suddenly dis
covered that there is fever and difficulty
in breathing and pains in the chest, then
it is announced that the patient has
pneumonia. BE on the safe side and
take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy as
soon as the cold is contracted. II al.
ways cures. For sale by John W. Thurs

Under the License Law.

Under the new license law every town
in the state must vote at the annual
meeting on the question, "Shall license
be granted for the sale of Intoxicating
liquors in this town p Special ballots
are to be provided by the secretary Of
state for a yes and no vote. II a town
votes for license, the selectmen must
then call special town meeting, if six
voters so request, to determine the kind
of licenses to be issued in that town.
The ballots to be used at such meetings
are to contain the questions: CD "Shall
licenses be granted for the sale of liquors
of all kinds p (2) "Shall licenses be
granted for the sale of beer or matted
liquors only?" For this special meet
ing, also, the secretary of state furnishes
the ballots. In each case the law pro-
vides that the box for the reception of
the ballots shall be opened at the hour
the meeting is called, and closed at
o'clock in the afternoon. In every town
that votes for license, the selectmen
must appoint three license commission.

Worthy Of Imitation.

The Monday evening Club in East
Berkshire has hit upon an idea that
similar organizations in every part Of
the state might initiate with profit.
This club has taken up a systematic
study of Vermont and at meeting held
this week the programme included such
topics as, "Vermont Politics." "Vermont
Industries and Institutions" "Current
Events" "John &. Saxe," etc. The
evening was varied by readings from
"Danvis Folks" and Saxe's poems. Such
programme as this contains much that
is interesting and valuable to Yer.
monter. Too many of our literary, and
kindred clubs delve deep into the lore
of other ages, and in fancy wander about
the stone heaps of Egypt or sail the
streets of Venice with the picturesque
gondolier, forgetting all the while that
Vermont has a remarkably fascinating
AiSIory anu present that Is full OF in
terest. Vermont has produced or nour.
ished scores of men and women whose
lives are entirely worthy of study, and
there is scarcely rood of ground in the
whole state that does not bear some in
teresting connection with her history.
Green Mountain boys and girls Of all
ages would find it helpful to be familiar
with these things, and how much more
sensible it would be, and how much more
genuine profit would be derived, it.

Attend Town Meeting.

Tuesday next the citizens Of Vermont
exert the highest privilege known to
our laws. To participate in the election
OF town officers for the year is privi-
lege that many do not appreciate. The
large number of voters who do not at
tend the annual town meeting is evil
dence that too many of the citizens
have but scant regard Tor their highest
privileges. 1t is here that the money is
raised and appropriated for various pur-
poses. II the man who owns farm, or
a house and few acres of land has not
sufficient interest to put in an attend
ance and show by his vote and voice his
ideas of economy in spending the money
of the town, then let him hold his peace
when the tax bill is presented. Gener-
ally the greatest amount OF grumbling
about high taxes comes from those who
stay at home and have no voice in the
matter. If they prefer to be absent they
should feel themselves estopped from
fault finding afterwards. Now word
as to the Offices to be filled. We are
under new conditions. A good board
of selectmen is imperatively demanded.
The selectmen have the appointing Of
the license commissioners, on whom de-
ponds great deal, if town votes in
favor of high license this year. IL men
are known who will give their towns
good service in Office, and expend the
towns money judiciously, such men
should be elected without regard either
to party or personal prejudice. We
don't want men elected to office because
they are "good fellows" We want good,
practical, common sense men. The
question is up to the voters.

During the last year or two methods
have been in use Of plugging the can

tickets are sold by a certain class OF
brokers who also deal to limited ex
