The Old Easter Bonnet.

| wish the Easter days were now like those
that once knew,
When Jennie wore the bonnet plain with
ribbon bows of blue;
When we walked to Sunday meetin' DER
the meadows green an sweet,
Where lilies waved in welcome, with vio-
lets at our feet.
1t amt the fancy fxin's.I mind so much
the bills
For birds and fluffy feathers-all the fine
new-fangled frills;
For know that fashion changes-that it
rules the world complete;
But the old time Easter bonnet was so
simple and SO sweet
It's ribbons matched the color of the blue
sky overhead,
An the lips that smiled beneath it seemed
to mean the words they said !
The lips that smiled SO sweetly-never
KNOWN any art
An the eyes whose sunny glances made a
light around your heart
I've nothin' 'gainst the fashions-they've
got to have their day
But love the simple bonnets of the far
an far away,
An thinkin' how she looked in EN-
these, in the long ago
I sigh an praise the Lord, from whom att
blessin's used ter fowl

The Postal Business in Vermont

The receipts of the 40 Vermont post
offices of the presidential class were
$i65, 0S7,70 for the last fiscal year.
These figures, belated as they are, having
just been made public by Auditor j. j.
McCardy, are of some interest because
they show the great growth of the postal
business in the state. The receipts for
the previous year were S447, 1888.
The salaries of these 40 postmasters
were SS5, 175, as against $Sl 400 the pre-
vious year. The fees paid for special
deliveries were 81 ,491,20. The aggre-
gate amount paid for clerk hire was
500 $50 26, as against $50, $50. Sc the pre-
vious fiscal year The total bill for rent,
light and fuel was $15,54l .65 as against
Sl4,5l3.S6 the previous year, The sum
paid out for free delivery in towns and
cities, as distinguished from the rural
delivery, was $50, 693. 40. 1t went to

No License Clare m ont.

Two years ago, Claremont voted for
license by over 400 majority. At the
last election the no license vote was over
200 in the majority, a change in more
than 600 votes. The Claremont Ad-
vocate says: There is much to be hoped
of d town that within ten days dedicates
new public library building, and over.
turns the existing license majority"
The Eagles comment is: "Claremonts
change to no-license is not a surprise to
those who have watched the situation
for the past few months The vote was
sufficiently decisive as to leave no ex-
cuse for not giving no license thorough
and impartial trial. When the saloons
and barrooms go out of business the
first of next May let there be no saloons
nor bars in any sense of the word, for
the ensuing two years. The people
voted no license, and it is up to the
people to see that the law is enforced
without fear or favor.

State Expenses Again.

The committee on claims, which has
been investigating the vouchers of state
institutions, has reported to the legis-
lature. 1t has examined 1000 vouchers
and finds the accounts to be ''substan-
TALLY correct"
1st-There are receipts for each arti-
Gle according to law.
2d-The accounts of state officers
commissioners, ETC., for per diem and
expenses during the first six months
were not all subscribed to according tC
law, but they were subscribed to properly
the last 10 months.
3d-The personal expense accounts
have not always been accompanied by
proper vouchers.
4th--Excessive expenditures have
been made and proper economy has not
been practiced.
Regarding state institutions the eX-
aminations of vouchers shows that the
cash discount has not generally been
taken, which amounts to a big sum.
This is due to carelessness or to a lack of
business methods. AS a rule retail
prices have been paid.
The committee find this most notice
able in the accounts of the state board of
health, the state laboratory of hygiene
and the fish and game commissioners.
The committee finds that number of
the trustees and directors have not given
sufficient attention to their duties.
In conclusion, the committee recon-
mends reorganization of the auditor

The merchants of Barre have entered
into an agreement not to contribute
prizes to fairs and other entertainments,
and notices to that effect have been
posted in all stores. The calls on the
merchants to give articles had become SC
numerous and frequent it became abso.
lutely necessary to take this step as a
matter of self preservation. The mer.
chants have also agreed not to advertise
in programmes. The only advertising
that pays them, they say, is newspaper

WiIloushby Lake House Burned

Fire on Nov. 18th, destroyed the Will
loughby Lake House. The family had
moved into its winter home across the
street, but was having some carpenter
work done. 1t is supposed there might
have been defect in the chimney or a
spark from an open fireplace that might
have started the fire.
The house was a large three-story
one at the south end of Willoughby
Lake. 1t was built over 80 years ago
by Bemis, Hall & Denison, and later
owned and run by Alonzo Bemis for
many years. 1t was popular summer
resort About 30 years ago, Francis
Richardson bought it. He has been
dead many years, but his wife has had
charge ever since.

taxpayers of the state of Vermont will
welcome the refreshing frankness of the
report of the subcommittee of the legis-

general assembly yesterday afternoon
exposing the loose business methods by
which the states money has SO long been
wasted and recommending a reorgan.
ization of the state auditors office as one
of the means Of correcting the evil.
The report makes it very plain that the
investigation of state institutions now
being made by legislative committee
was not begun day too soon."
