GOOD SPIRITS.

Good spirits don't all come from Ken
lucky. Their main source is the liver
and all the fine spirits ever made in the
Blue Grass State could not remedy a bad
liver or the hundred-and-one i'll effects it
produces. You can't have good spirits
and bad liver at the same time. Your
liver must be in fine condition if YOU
would feel buoyant, happy and hopeful,
bright of eye light Of step, vigorous and
successful in your pursuits You can put
your liver in fine condition by using
Green's August Flower-the greatest Of
all medicines for the liver and stomach
and a certain cure for dyspepsia or in
digestion. 1t has been a favorite house
hold remedy for over 30 years. August
Flower will make your liver healthy and
active and thus insure you liberal
supply of good spirit" Trial size, 25c

1t is the general expectation in legal
circles that the present license law will
be declared unconstitutional by the
supreme court this fall. The Randolph
Herald says
1.-THE action of the supreme court in
delaying the expected decision as to the
constitutionality of the local option law,
and the fact that of late most or all of
the cases involving this law that have
come before the courts have been con-
tinued, raises the suspicion that the
forthcoming decision may have deep
Importance. We have not the slightest
information from authentic source, for
it is well known that such secrets are
most carefully guarded, but it is clear
that if the court were about to declare
the law unconstitutional it would take
about the course now being pursued
cases under it would be continued and
the decision would be delayed until the
converting of the assembly, when any
grave defects could be renedied at once
with the least possible jar, or such other
action taken as might be deemed
best"

Called to Shelburne.

Rev. w. F. Weeks has rendered his
resignation to the vestrymen of St.
Thomas church Brandon to take effect
August LIST, and it has been accepted
Mr.. Weeks next charge will be the
parish at Shelburne, to which he has
been called, and among whose parishion-
ers is numbered DR.. Webb and family.
The Brandon Union pays the fol-
lowing we'll deserved tribute to him;
"Rev. Mr. Weeks has been rector of St.
Thomas church since 1889 and has also
included in his work here the charge of
the Grace church at Forestdale and is
personally known to almost if not quite
every resident Of our town. And his
friends are as numerous as his acquain-
tances. 1t is saying very little to say
that the resignation of Mr.. Weeks will be
sincerely regretted by his people in
Brandon. \ liberal, broad-minded
clergyman, a kind and courteous gentle
man, generous neighbor, interested in
every thing pertaining to the good of his
town and his townspeople, enthusiastic,
even in all sports which are elevating
and which contribute happiness to the
human race, Mr.. Weeks is the friend of
all, regardless OF denomination, and the
sorrow because of his anticipated de-
parture is universal. And there is not a
doubt but that this sorrow is fully shared
by Mr. Weeks and his family. His long
term of service in this beautiful town
must have formed ties which will be
hard to sever. 1t was here his interest

has been fraught with many joys. New

( but the memory of olden ties, the sever
ing of tried and true friendships is an
uncomfortable sensation and causes
regret that the world is so wide and that
distance means so much"

Foster and Haskins Renominated

The district conventions last week
We're uneventful affairs, except in the
first district, held in Rutland where a
"sorehead' delegation from Fair Haven
presented the name of o. NJ. Barber of
Bennington without his knowledge, as
an opponent to Hon. d. J Foster, who
however, was re-nominated with only
four dissenting votes. John B. Stearns
of Rutland was chairman and w. X,

tary.
At Montpelier, the officers of the
district convention were: Frederick W.
Baldwin, chairman; w. w. Husband of
Montpelier and II. l.. Hindley of Ludlow
secretaries. The convention was notable
for an interesting speech from Mr..
Haskins, re-nominated without opposi-
ton, singing by A. j. Markham and con-
tinual applause as the name of Roosevelt
was mentioned.

The National Magazine for July opens
with a remarkable group picture of
eleven distinguished western university
presidents. Homer Davenport, greatest
of American cartoonists, contributes his
very best picture-a labor of love-a
noble and beautiful portrait of his father,
holding in his arms Gloria, the tiny daugh-
ter of the famous artist. Joe Mitchell
Chapple, chatting about affairs at Wash
ington and at the Worlds Fair, tells how
Davenport has won success on the
lecture platform.
A curious interest attaches to the
group of schoolboy essays written by
John d. Rockefeller, Celestia Spelman
Mrs. Rockfeller) and Mark Hanna, fifty
years ago. when they, with ex-Senators
Wolcott of Colorado and Jones of
Arkansas, were fellow students in Cleve-
land, Ohio. Mr.. Rockefeller wrote on ''The
Character of ST. Patrick, J." on Freedom, ~
on Education" and on "The RecoL
lections of the Past" while Hanna's
themes were equally prophetic of his
later career. Facsimiles of essays in the
handwriting of Mr., and Mrs. Rockefeller
are shown.

hung on the walls or over the stage at
the Armory at Montpelier the day Of the

were only one or two small flags and no

convention be held at Burlington where
they know how to do things right, and
