sion of this famous writer's best book,
"Sara Crewe, or What Happened at
Miss Minchin's" and the story is
familiar to every reader of good liter

of the little ones.
1t is a sweet simple story Of true life,
where human nature Iis mo 'istly and
carefully pictured. A play showing
the sorrows and joys, trials, and
troubles of loving little girl who
aims to be cheerful under the most try
ing circumstances, and who succeeds
in making others happy even when ex
tremely miserable herself. "The Little
Princess" is play that will do you
good to see, and one that you will feel
much better for having seen. 1t will

DR. DAY AND THE LAW
An Intelligent Opinion on the Workings of Ii
cense.

The st Albans Messenger has been
printing a series of letters from Ii
cense commissioners of several towns
in the state and includes the following
which is one of the best, from DR. Day
chairman of the Bennington license
board:
",The New liquor law has worked so
smoothly in Bennington that suggest
ions in regard to amendments that
may emasculate it or on the other
hand, make it too iron-clad should be
few and only such as experience has
shown to be necessary.
't would have all licenses begin at
the same time.
"The commissioners ought to have
power to cancel license at any time
for reasons that appear just and
proper to them and to refund to the Ii
cense the proportionate part of the
unexpired term when the condition OF
the license have not been violated.
"The anti-treating clause oughtto be
repealed.
ga minor, who falsely represents
his age in order to procure intoXicat-
ing liquor should be severely dealt with
"Section 80 of the law, relating to
searching dwelling houses only upon
the affidavit of two reputable citizens
ought to be repealed as the section in
question is a stumbling block to the
prompt and efficient enforcement OF
the law.
"Boards of license commissioners
ought to be appointed as at present, as
believe that county boards would
| prove more unsatisfactory and more
susceptible to political influence.
"Finally, whoever takes out a IL
cense of the first class should be com
PEELED also to take one of the second
class, and that both licenses should
only count as one in apportioning Ii
censes according to population"

Ladd $40 10 get in on the deal, and the
party was to start Monday morning

a crystal put in, since which neither

NEW TRADING
STAMP PLAN
DrysdaIe Stores lnauSurate
Superior System.
ADVANTAGE TO BUYERS
Stamps Given Out Will Be Re-
deemabIe at Their Own
Stores.
ADVANTAGE TO BUYERS

On and after Saturday, October lst'
this we'll known house will issue to all
cash customers their most satisfactory
Legal Gold trading stamps.
This firm adopted their own trading
stamp only after thorough investiga-
tion of and some experience with the
trading stamp companies and finally
decided that the only logical basis on
which trading stamp could be issued
was one redeemable at their own store
in their own merchandise.
Mary of the trading stamp compan-
les require the holders OF books to pro-
cure 1000 stamps, representing 500
worth of purchases before the book be-
comes available for redemption.
Drysdale's trading stamp book will
only contain 800 stamps, thus cutting
the amount of purchases necessary to
Gil the book squaralyin two. Further
more, instead OF heing limited to
small and Insignificant range Of pre-
miums OF questionable value, the hold
er of "a book worth 500 trading stamps
can redeem the same in any article or
articles of merchandise in the store at
regular retail prices to the value OF
81 so.
Collectors of stamps have noticed
that the quality OF premiums offered
by stamp companies has been rapidly
deteriorating and whatever advantag-
es are gained by their collection are
largely lost through this fault
With the trading stamp issued by
Drysdale the customer can useit in
any Of their Il departments in which
you can surely find some useful, sensi-
BILE wanted thing for mans, boys,
womens' or girls wear, or for furnish
ing the home.
For instance if the holder of a book
desires to purchase an article OF high
er value, she can apply the redemption
value of the book on that purchase and
nav the difference in cash. If she
wants to apply it on her account in
payment of past charge purchases, Il
will be accepted as legal tender, the
Drysdale gold stamp being literally as
good as gold.
Drvsdale in offering these trading
stamps to their customers are confident
that it will appeal to them as being
far more desirable stamp in every wal
than any company" stamp. Theil
range of merchandise is so very large
that the holder of book has a yer!
wide selection of premiums from which
to make her choice.
The trading stamp companies gener
ally make enormous profits on th'
class of merchandise they give away
They maintain hundreds of stores an(
spend money freely in all sorts OF meth
DDS to induce people to collect thes'
stamps.
Somebody must pay for these o
course. With the stamp issued b!
Drysdale all the value goes to the col
lector. They simply offer 1t as an in
ducement to trade for cash.
Collectors of stamps will also sppre
ciate the fact that only half the mum
ber of stamps need to be saved by thi
system, and it is safe to say that tn
premium given for 500 stamps b!
Drysdale is worth intrinsically a
much and in many cases more thai
that given for 1000 stamps issued by
Grading stamp company.

so pleased President Roosevelt that he
wrote persolsl letter to Mr.. Carter,
complimenting him and wishing him
success in the raising Of so large a
family This family consists Of fifteen
boys and eight girls and all are in

one time seventeen OF the children
were sick with the measles and, in
order to keep them supplied with
drinking water during the height o
the fever, without inconvenience to
either himself or his wife Mr. Carter
hit on novel plan. He placed a
large keg upon bureau; TO tao
attached a rubber hose with fauce
at one eud. When one of the children
wanted drink, the others would
pass the hose to him and he would
help himself without disturbing the
parents, who that way could enjoy
go0d nights rest.
The only time when Mr. Carter
found that his children were care

lily was down with whooping cough al

for when half dozen children are
coughing and whooping at once, s.eep

Mr.. Carter resides in five room
house and therefore had to make es
pecial sleeping arrangements. The
boys have one room in which is an
immense bed. They sleep on ths
