HOME DRESSMAKING HINTS.

Elton jackets are becoming to almost all
women, and are much in favor because Of
that fact. This one includes the fashionable
stole. with sleeves that are both novel and
satisfactory to the wearer. The original is
made of the Sicilian mohair. stitched with
corticelli silk and trimmed with fancy
braid, and makes part of a costume, but the
jacket is equally well suited TO other suiting
materials and TO the odd wrap as well as TO

Hasksin's Action Explained.

The following is from the Northfield
Haskins of the second congressional dis
trict, who has always occupied such a
warm place in the hearts of his towns
men, is just now under suspicion. 1t
seems that Colonel Haskins provided
generously for his constituents this
spring in the way of governn ent seeds.
This was all highly appreciated until
some of the recipients caught Colonel
Haskins buying seeds for his own gar
den from a local store. Now what they
wish to know is if the genial colonel was
a victim of his own generosity or if he
knew so much about the seeds he sent
from Washington that he did not dare to
plant them on his own farm" AS Col
onel Haskins is reckoned pretty good
politician he will probably wait with
anxiety the harvest of the fruit which
the free distribution produces before an
nouncing his candidacy for another term
in congress"
We hasten to explain that the genial
colonel was victim of his own gener-
oaty. In common with other congress
men he was allotted $4,000 packages of
vegetable seeds and 500 packages of
flower seeds. Now the genial colonel
has always been favorite with the la
dies, and the older he grows the greater
his popularity. This spring he found
that his 500 packages of flower seeds
were but drop in the bucket. The fair
ones all over the district wrote in to
know why the sun of his favor was
eclipsed and they had received no seeds.
The big hearted colonel could not with
stand these appeals, and SO not only gave
away all of the 500 packages supplied by

This promotion of Mr.. Porter is GER

where he comes from. 1t is now in or

to shout that when the Chemical bank

A Word to Advertisers.

If the advertiser will learn to look up
on his advertisement in the newspaper
in the same way that he looks upon his
display windows and will dress his adj
vertisement as frequently and as artis-
tically as he dresses his windows, print

newspa reimbursement has the adyan-
tage over the show window that it does
not wait for the occasional passer-by to
turn his head for fitting glance at it,
but goes straight to the homes of all the
purchasers, men and women, big and lit
tie, knocks at their door every night,
and never fails of being taken in and
read. But the advertiser who is careless
and irregular about changing his adver-
tisement soon educates the reader not to
look for it, and the result is that his
money is pretty well thrown away.
Newspapers prefer to have their adver-
Using patrons change their advertise

better results when they do, will be bet

No License to Debauch.

There appears to be slight picking
up in the amount of police court bust
ness in this city, as regards arrests for
intoxication, yesterdays record going
ahead of that of any day since the legal
lied saloons opened in this city one
week ago. Barre's record of arrests for
intexication has been decidedly good for
the week, there having been only seven.
But the Times has no desire to keep
down the number of arrests, to the Ill
innate detriment of the license law. If
intoxicated persons are to be found on
the streets they should be arrested, even
if the number approaches the 1857 that
signalized the opening of saloons in Mid
dlebury. The trainers of the license law
didn't design it, and large majority of
it's supporters didnt intend it, to allow
men a license to debauch themselves, to
make inveterate pigs of themselves. And
as long as some men, by their actions,
show that they think the new law gives
them freedom to do that they should be
warned to the contr; ~, and the most
efticacious method of doing it is by max
ing arrests of any and all offenders. Lii
cense does not mean liberty to get drunk.

The Murderous Fourth.

Guy Fawkes's Gunpowder plot wasn't
in it for moment compared with the
gun powder plot which successfully vic
timizes the American nation every re-
curing Fourth of July.
The din and uproar with which bows
and Older persons of infantie brain
power celebrate the Fourth are not
merely idiotic, but are attended with
danger to life and property. 1t has come
to such pass that the Fourth is day
OF anxiety and dread to parents, and of
general annoyance and discomfort on all
slices.
And 1T is characteristic of the Ameri-
can public that it stands this colossal
nuisance. We all complain bitterly, but
nobody takes any practical steps, and in
week everything is forgotten until the
recurrence of"the outrage on our rights
brings repetition of the old story OF
our wrongs.
rms year let us make an attempt te
draw the line at cannon erackers-things
deadller and far more dangerous than
the bolo or the MauSer.
Firecrackers are bad enough. Cannon
crackers represent the highest mark vet
attained by the inventive genius of &c

Vermont as Manufacturing State.

The farmers are not ''the main pro-
ducers of Vermont" and have not been
for several years. According to the last
census the value of farm products annu-
ally is S33, SO, 1872, that is to say, that
was the value of farm products in 1899,
fair year to judge by. The value of
manufactured products, on the other
hand, is 57,623,S SIS, which is not so very
far from being twice the value of farm
products. Not only that, but the manu-
featured products have been ahead of
the farm products for nearly 20 years
In 1880 the value of manufactured prod
ucts was S31 1854, 366, which, 1T will be
noticed, is only short about 20, OO0, 900 of
equalling the value of farm products
now. In 1890 the value of manufactured
products had reached S3S, SAC, O66, and in
1900 it was S57, 623,S15. The gain in the
past 10 years is so per cent, which fact
emphasizes anew the great changes that
are gradually being introduced into our
Vermont life and activities.
Vermont is not an agricultural state.
1t is true that probably the greater part
of her inhabitants derive their support
directly from farming, but even so, the
drift of population is steadily away from
VIC ldllilS W pll0 anu larger
towns and cities, and the farms them
selves produce comparatively little that
is sent out of the state. Vermont can
not be called an agricultural state when
she does little more than partially sup
port her own people by farm products,
when she imports her grains and -four
and in some of the larger cities even a
fair share of table vegetables and fruits.
Iowa, Illinois and the other states in the
great prairie regions of the west are agri-
cultural states as the world understands
that term today.
The Messenger has repeatedly VEN
tured the opinion that Vermont is one
day to be known as state whose mate
rial esources are to be found in dairy
ing, quarrying, manufacturing and min
ing, and that day is drawing nearer as
the foregoing figures show. However
much some of our good friends may dis
like to admit it, however much some of
them may even blind their eyes to it, we
are living in the transition stages of the
New Vermont" This matter of the
change in the character of her products
is but one of the many and various evil
dences that the genera ton now active in
this state is to live to see changes even
more significant still. And they will be
worth living for.-St Adams Messenger.

Radical Labor Bill.

Connecticut has had so many and so
serious labor troubles of late that it is
not surprising that bill which has been
introduced into the legislature of that
state, severe though many of it's pro-
visions are, appears to find favor with
the Connecticut lawmakers. The bill
provides that labor unions shall be incor-
porated whether or no they wish to be;
it prohibits strikes by employees without
a Is days notice; it provides that when,
in case of strike or lockout, violence is
resorted to by the strikers, resulting in
loss to the state or community, both
employers and employees shall be respon-
sible to the state for such loss. Further
more, and perhaps most important of ALL
the bill aims against discrimination in
the case of national guardsmen, and pro-
vides for a fine of $500 and two years
Imprisonment for such discrimination by
officers of union or by workingmen.
New York and Connecticut have recently
had examples of such discrimination,
several cases being brought to the atten-
ton of the people of the country gener-
ally. There was no installing public
sentiment in these cases. The popular
verdict was for the national guardsmen.
This feature of the proposed bill, should
it become a law, will have public senti-
ment behind it and should be easily
enforced, though it will be reluctantly
admitted. if at all, that 1t is needed legis-

While liquor will be sold under the pro
visions OF the new law, that law is not
Unsigned to encourage or foster drunken
ness or any of its evils; that a drunken
person is nuisance and will be treated
as such; that he will not be hidden in
pack yards or plotted secretly home but
that he will be arrested before he has
time to make trouble. Make him real
,ze that while the e is no objection to
nus buying liquor there is every objec-
ton to his appearing as ''drunk'' and
that II he does so he is to blame and
must take the consequences.

sider that human Weaknesses are never

At a public meeting held one Sunday
evening the pastors of the Baptist, Con-
gregationala and Methodist churches made
strong protest against such irreverent
language and the community generally
has been quite excited. In it's last issue
the Eagle makes very lame effort at ex-
planning how it happened. A newspaper
which so far forgets what is proper and
decent as to class the dishing out of liq-
uor at a saloon with the use of wine at
the sacrament of the Lords Supper de-
serves to be roasted. There is still,
thank God, reverence for what from the
beginning of the Christian era has been
considered sacred and it will not go well
with the individual or institution which
tramples upon that reverence.

The Laws That Govern Human Nature

Some of our exchanges are still wrest-
ling over the abstruse problems of the
license campaign. They are reverting to
the laws that govern human nature"
and are divided in opinion as to whether
men will drink more liquor when it is
easy to get or whether they crave it most
when it is forbidden them.
Now this is all very interesting but the
time for speculation and theorizing on
this subject has gone by in Vermont. We
theor1zed and we argued and we vacillat-
ed; and finally we passed law which we
thought, in the main, good. Now the
business in hand is to see that it is en-
forced. Let's stop apologizing for the
weakness of man that causes him to
make a nuisance of himself by getting
drunk. Let's stop deferring to his weak
ness. He will never grow stronger that
way.
Rather, give him to understand that
