Senator Foraker of Ohio delivered
a very stirring and able address be-
fore the republican state convention
at Burlington last week. This was
the Senator's first visit to Vermont,
but he evidently enjoyed our lovely

snow. He expressed desire to learn
more of Vermont, saying that having
visited the state in the spring he
would now ike to see real Vermont

TO SINGERS AND PUBLIC
SPEAKERS,
ILL. G. Pierce Urges Them to Use
HyOmei. Willing to Sell 1t on
Approval.


A new and especially valuable use
for Hyomei has been discovered, one
that will be particularly welcomed by
singers and public speakers.
The free use of Hyomei, breathed
through the inhaler that comes with
every outfit, carries healing balsams
to the head and throat, and strength
ems the voice. FL. @. Pierce has had
several of his customers speak to him
in regard to the good effects following
the use of Hyonei for this special
purpose, and will be glad to sell it on
approval to any singer, minister,
teacher, or public speaker.
Fl. @. Pierce feels sure that the use
of Hyomei for this purpose will make
many new friends for the treatment.
If it does not give satisfaction, the
money will be returned promptly and
without questions.
The complete Hyomei outfit, con-
sisting of an inhaler that can be car
ried in the purse or pocket, a bottle
of Hyomei and a medicine dropper,
costs only one dollar.
Many re markable cures of catarrh
and other troubles of the air passages
have been made by Hyomei, and Fl
G. Pierce agrees to refund the money
to anyone who does not find it COM
plete cure for any catarrhal trouble.
There is no dangerous stomach
drugging with Hyomei; simply
breathe it through the inhaler, and
relief comes quickly.

The friends of the republican
gubernatorial candidates were in evil
dence at the state conve ntion at Bur
lington last week and considerable
work was done for both Bell and
Stanton. The Burlington Nelcs in
summing up the situation states that
the adherents of both men claim
greater strength for their candidate
than the conditions warrant. The
Clement workers were present and
after comforting together claimed to
be well satisfied with the outlook.

A statement crept into our news
columns of yesterday to the effect
that the Hon. Joseph A. DeBoer of
Montpelier had said he would not
accept the nomination for the COVER
norship under any circumstances
Our understanding of Mr.. DeBoer's
letter was that he would not engage
in a campaign for the nomination for
the Office of governor, although he
did not attempt to conceal the fact
that he would highly appreciate an
election to this important office; and
so far as we have heard he has not
changed his position. We make this
statement in simple justice to all
concerned.-FreeP Press.

Attempted Suicide in Chicago
Peter Neiderme1er, one of the car
barn bandits, attempted to commit
suicide in his cell April IS, and not
until he was unconscious from the
loss of blood was his condition
noticed. He was taken at once to the
Jail hospital and was revived. His
condition is serious but the physicians
said his attempt would not prove
fatal. The heads of matches were
eaten as one method by which the
bandit attempted to cheat the
gallows. The other method was by
opening an artery in his left arm.

The numbers of Japanese troops are
increasing. They are concentrating
at VIII and spreading toward the
north along the Yalu." The Russians
report that they frustrated an
attempt of the enemy to land east of
Port Arthur last week. Nine trans
ports approached shore in Korea bay

A fire that ragged throughout Tues

Wednesday in the wholesale and

Canada, was the most disastrous in
the history of the city. The total loss

five and SIX million dollars. The
principal warehouses of the city are

covered by the fire is three blocks in
length and varied from half a block
to two blocks in width. Every build
ing on Bay st. from Melinda St

How They Pay for Their Luncheon

In enc of the sky-scraping office
buildings in lower New York two of
the lawyers who have Offices on the
fifth floor have luncheon together al
most every day They meet at I
o'clock near the elevator Just at the
side of the shaft is the mail chute,
and many letters are sent down the
slide from the floors above.
Each day when Lawyer Coke ap-
proaches the chute he holds. his watch
in his hand Lawyer Littleton men
tons numbers ten seconds. I"
Then the two Ilen stand gazing into
the glass-frontei mail slide for ten
seconds. At the expiration of that
time the two men turn away and go
to their luncheon.
They had been doing this for many
weeks before the elevator man asked
them what they did it fer.
WELL said Lawyer Coke, ''it is this
way. | am timekeeper and Littleton
has the privilege of stating the time.
If letter falls down the chute from
the floors above within the time he
calls out, then / have to pay for his
luncheon If no letter falls within
the time, then he has to pay for mine.
It's an easy way of deciding which
is to pay.

Hints for the Mothers Which VIII Enable Them Make the Old

and a few cuttings of red silk, the
latter being used as pipings. The
blouse was cut after the shapely
spring model and showed an inside
plastron of dark blue broadcloth. The
open neck of the blouse was fitted te
this plastron by series of crimson
piped collarettes starting from d
piped strap Tapped over with a gold
button.
The blouse itself was shaped to the
figure by groupings of tiny tucks
which broke into flare before reach
ing the waist line. These same tucks
were carried out on the full sleeves
caught at the wrist by blue cloth
cuff, little puff of cloth being visible
as cuff fastener. An effect of added
freshness was conveyed by dainty
turnover collar of white lawn and a
white ribbon bow in the hair.
A dainty little dinner dress of any
white fabric that has become too
short, or whose sleeves are old fash
toned, can be heightened and rejuve-
mated by adding ruffle and remodel
ling the sleeves
A charming design that can serve
as all ideal model for the remedying
of shortcomings is a white Persian
lawn worn with a rose pink under
slip.
The baby blouse is made with a
round neck fastened to an inside lace
piece by rose baby ribbons and finish
ed by full lace edge ruffle, which
falls over the sleeves in pretty capes.
The waist is constructed of horizontal
lace insertions, as are also the sleeves,
the latter being shaped puff tied at
the elbow with narrow rose ribbons.
The skirt is laid in insertions care
fully gathered to the waist and finish
ed by a lace edged ruf1e. A rich
rose-pink grosgrain ribbon sash and
coral beads give the necessary touches
of color. White ribbed stockings and
high sandaled shoes complete this
dainty little costume.
1t is not easy to remodel a coat,
but any pretty spring design is fruit
full in ideas for the clever mother. The
new rep and fuzz cloths, in all the
odd colors, are extremely attractive,
warm and light of weight.
A jaunty model coat is of cham
payne fuzz cloth, with seal brown
pipings of velvet. The coat gives the
fashionable lengtf--a trife below the
knee-and is finished by row Of ma
chine stitching and velvet piping, just
enough above the edge to form a
border. The sleeves have deep cape,
decorated with brown link cordings
and mother-of-pearl buttons, the latter
being similar to those that fasten the
coat. This sleeve cape is fastened to
the coat by an encircling strap pass
ing front and back, and decorated with
stitching and velvet pipings. The full
sleeves are caught into shaped turn
over cuff, velvet piped. The same de-
sign and piping are applied to the
pockets.
The champagne chiffon hat, with a
shaded white and champagne feather,
shows the new flare shape, which fits
the back of the head not unlike a
bonnet The costume is finished by
white stitched gloves, white stockings
and handsome kid shoes.

Table Cloth of Leather.

A new and handsome hanging for a
library or den door was made of half
inch straps of soft, dressed leather,
stitched together to get the requisite
length At intervals, leather fringe
about three inches deep, sewed to-
gether at the top, was slipped tip the
lengths, and secured every twelve
inches, giving tassel effect to the
whole.
Leather hides are now dressed to
an ooze surface of velvety softness,
and are much used for table cloths.
Sheepskin also is exceedingly popu-
lar, and it comes in all the pastel
shades, as the skins take the dyes per-
fectly.
Leather covered panels are used for
mounting thermometers, clocks, and
all sorts Of useful things for library
and den.
