WINTER

A fur coat is a capital investment,
albeit an expensive n as regards the
first cost, but with a good fur coat
gowns of last year, or even of two
years ago, are possible. But again it
must be repeated, in both gown and
coat the style chosen must not be an
exaggerated one in any particular.
The so.called fancy coats in fur show
so plainly the second year that they
are the fashion of a past season that
they are not good for a second winter
whereas a half-fting quarter length
coat may be worn two or three seasons
at least, and a eventually be cut
down into the fancy short jacket, and
end its days as revers, collar and muff

With the smooth cloths for coat
and skirt for the more elaborate street

given by the different waists. For
the moment fashion demands that the
waist and skirt shalt match. 1t takes
very little material in the wide cloth
to make a waist and there may be also
a chiffon, satin, velvet or silk waist
to match, and always a lace one, the
latest fad of a white lace waist with
bands of cloth to match the skirt being
a most practical one.

FOUR OLD MEN.

1t is probable that it a young physi-
clan, looking tor a place in which a
sufficient amount of sickness might be
expected to warrant his settling down
for permanent practice, had happened
on the streets of Montpelier last Sat
urday he would have turned around
in disappointment to seek his abode
elsewhere. 1t happened on that day
thaG four old men, three of whom
were over ninety years and the other
fast reaching that goal, were ~scraping
elbows with each other on the streets
of the city.
General Steven Thomas, the oldest
of the quartette, has already passed
his ninety-fourth mile stone, and, al
though perhaps the feeblest of all. he
shows a good many signs of vitality
still. He is somewhat blind but there
are few men living today who have
had the good fortune to marshall
for the preservation of the Union as
he, and still find a place among the
active. He needs not the vision of the
eye to paint in his mind the charge of
the gallant boys in blue at Gettysburg,
nor does he need the acute ear of
youth to hear the rattle of muskets,
the roll Of the drum and the cannon's
roar All these things to him are far
more vivid than anything, however
grand, che artist may have placed OIL
canvas-the blue is real, the guns
iron and the red, blood If every flag
ahoaU meant as much to it's citizens as
the one he knows, each would repre-
sent q patriotic nation indeed.
Then came Theodore NJ. Slayton Of
Calais. His mission to the Capital
was to fight a law suit, evidence OF
his activity after ninety-one years of
life.
Close upon his heels came Alanson
Luce, one of our own citizens, who
held the distinction of being the old
est native of Stowe who attended the
dedication of the memorial building
in that town this summer.
Samuel Deavitt of Waterbury, the
youngest of the four, but still q very
old man, was the other ce~ntenarian-
elect who found his way up State
street on that day. He can remember
Montpelier before the present State
House was built aud represented Boil .
ton in the Legislature a half century
ago. The four men IN their earlier
days would undoubtedly have made an
excellent back field for a modern foot
ball team.

MRS. IL. ".

Laila j., wife of DR.. r. w. New
ton of Barre, died ON Friday at the
home of her parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
r. M. Harvey, on Seminary Hill.
She had been in poor health for the
past year and during the last month
of her illness had been with her par
ents. She was a noble young lady
and will be greatly missed in her cir
Gle of friends. The deceased was
born in Topsham twenty six years ago
and spent her early life in that town,
attending Montpelier Seminary prior
to her moving to Montpelier with her
parents in 1896. She was married to
DR.. Newton in May, 1900. and lived
in Montpelier from July, 1900, to
November, 1901, while her husband
was a contract surgeon in the United
States army in the Philippines. Upon
his return Mr.. and Mrs. Newton
moved to Barre and had resided there
since that time. The funeral was
held from the house at 81 College
street Sunday morning at 9 o'clock
and burial was in West Topsham.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is cauesd by an

this tube is infiamed you have a rum

when it is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, and unless the inflamma-
ton a be taken out and this tube
restored to it's normal condition,
hearing will be DESTROYED forever ;

"Frugality and sobriety form the

"Cleanliness prevents rust the best

ITO be sensibly dressed is to give
freedom to ones movements and
enough warmth to be protected from
sudden changes of temperature.
"A clean and cheerful house makes
a happy home.
"The mind is refreshed and invigor-
ated by distractions and amusement
but abuse of them leads to dissipation
and dissipation to vice.
"Cheerfulness makes love Of life,
and love of life is half of health. On

ARRESTED FOR L1RCENY

Herbert Davis, aged seventeen years,
of Mortified was arrested and brought
to this city on Friday by Chief of
Police Joseph Fitzgerald to answer
to the charge Of larceny. 1t is claimed
by the State that Davis ordered a
Marlin repeating rifle and case of
Sears, Roebuck & Co. of Chicago
about a year ago, the rifle being sent
for in the name of Lawrence Kelly.
The rifle came to the Mortified ex-
press office @. o. D., and the State
claims that Davis took it from there
without paying for it and without the
knowledge of the express agent. No
trace of the missing property was Sc
cured until a short time ago when the
burglary of the Colburn Clothing
Company's store occurred and the
search made by officers which result
ed in the finding of the clothing and
other articles secIeted in the home of
Mrs. Antoine Miller, the mother of
Eugene Davis, and the arrest of Davis
and his alleged partner in the crime.
The rifle was found in the Davis
home. Herbert is a younger brother
of Eugene and evidence has been col
lected which points to his being the
person who took the gun. Herbert
was arraigned for larceny in city court
on Friday and was bound over TO
county court by Judge Woodward.
Bail was fixed at 5000, which was not
furnished. Burton E. Bailey appeared
for the State and Clifton M. Heaton
for the respondent.
