While the Vermont Forestry Associa-
ton is meeting in Montpelier next week,
II might be well for the members to do
a little work inperson. 1t is reported
that all the maple trees in the State
House lawn are to be cut down, either
because they are rotten or because their
shade retards the growth OF the lawn.
One dislikes to destroy trees unless Their
destruction is imperatively demanded.
Perhaps it is not necessary that all
the maple trees in the State House lawn
be cut down.

that much the worst damage that peo-
ple of wealth can do the rest Of us is
not any actual physical harm, but the
awakening in our breasts of either the
mean vice of Worshipilg mere wealth,
and the man of mere wealth. for the
wealths sake, or the equally mean vice
of viewing with rdncorouS envy ANA
hatred the men Of wealth merely be-
cause they are men of wealth. Envy
is. Of course, merely L kind of crooked

Of the state. 1t should always be

Judgment. all corporations doing an in

LIFE IN BETHLEHEM IN JUDEA.
Marion Harand Writes of Novel
 Christmas Experience.
From Lippencott's Magazine.

From Lippencott's Magazine.
 Through the kindly. offices of our in- comparable dragoman, David Jamal. who. Mrs. M. o. w. Oliphant writes, was "the Providence of her family party" as he afterwards proved himself to be of ours, we were admitted to the homes of sev- erai Bethlehemites and enjoyed glimpses of a life unchanged in general aspect from that of two thousand years ago.
 Our longest call, and the most interest ing, was upon a. family of some note in the town, and so well-to-do that they oc- cupied the whole of a three-storied house
 Christmas being a holiday, men as well al women were at home, and all the members of the family were invited In to see us in the parental abode. The host was formerly the sheik of the town, and in more trouhlous times than ours a mighty man of valor in the region. He sat upon a cushion near the door, fine looking patriarch in white turban, white turic, and full, white trousers. His beard looked the winter for the black eyebrows drawn strongly above pair of piercing dark eyes He was in holiday mood and dress. full of pleasant courtesy to us and good humored banter to the others pres ent. We were hardly seated upon the divan running around three sides of the room when he ordered his wife to bring him a bottle of native wine and glass;

GIVE YOUR STOMACH
 A NICE VACATION
Don't Do It By Starving It Elther-Let
 A Substitute Do the Work.

The old adage, All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy" applies just as well to the stomach, one of the most im- portant organs of the human system, as it does to the man himself
 If your stomach Is worn out and rebels against being taxed beyond Its limit the only sensible thing you can do Is to give it a rest Employ a substitute for short time and see if It will not more elan repay you in results.
 Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are a willing and most efficient substitute They them- selves>digest every bit of food in the stom- ach in just the same way that the stomach itself would were 1t well. They contain all the essential elements that the gastric juice and other digestive fluids of the stomach contain and actually act just the same and do just the same work as the natural fluids would do were the stomach well and sound. They, there- fore relieve the stomach, just as one workman relieves another. and permit it to rest and recuperate and regain It's normal health and strength.
 This vacation idea was suggested by the letter of a prominent lawyer in Chicago. Read what he says: 'I was engaged in the most momentons under taking of my life in bringing about the coalition of certain great interests that meant much to me well as my clients. It was not the work of days, but of months; l was working night and day almost when at a very critical time my stomach went completely back on me. The undue mental strain brought it about and hurried up what would have happened later on.
 What l ate I had to literally force down and that was source of misery, as I had a sour stomach much of the time. My head ached, I was sluggish and began to lose my ambition to carry out my undertaking. It looked pretty gloomy for me and I confided my plight to one of my clients. He had been cured by Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and at once went down to a drug store and brought box up to the office.
 q had not taken qlAGter of that box before I found that they would do all the work my stomach ever did, and as rest or vacation was out of the question for me, I determined to give my stomach a vacation. l kept right on taking the tablets and braced up and went ahead with my work with re- newed vigor, ate just so much as I ever did and carried out that undertaking to a successful issue. I feel that I have Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets to thank for saving me the handsomest fee ever received as well as my reputation and last but not least my stomach.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for sale by all druggists at 50 cents box.

in which he drank to my sons health. Syrian etiquette forbade him to drink to the health of a woman or to name her over draught of wine but he hedsed cleverly by tossing off second bumper, and, holding the emptied glass in his hand, expressing the hope-still address ing my travelling companion-that Madame, your honorable mother. will have a safe and prosperous journey to her distant home" For the next five minutes he kept his gentle wife. his daughter, who had the face of a Madon- ma, and his beautiful daughter-in-law busy in making ready for the inevitable coffee drinking
 A brazier of charcoal stood beside him, but his wife blew up the coals and added fuel; the daughter brought the raw coffee berries in round, shallow vessel with long handle, like sttaight-sided frying pan, In which the ex-shiek himself roast ed the grains as special compliment to us. To brother-in-law who had dropped in, was assigned the task of pounding the coffee to powder in a mortar of olive wood-"an heirloom" as the host told us pridefully land over hundred years old" The pestle was, likewise. of olive wood both were as hard as lignum-vitae and black as ebony with age and use. In pounding the coffee tune is rung by beats of the pestle against the sides of the mortar. When this is done skillfully every part of the rim is touched in turn by the pestle in rhythmic resonance. The hostess put the coffee powder into a cop per pot, added water, sugar, and pinch of aispice, and set 1t to boil, her lord di- recting the process and watching the pot until the contents loaned up to the top, when he lifted 1t of, waited until the bubbling ceased, and put 1t back over the coals. After three boilings-up the bev- craze was ready for use. The daughter brought a tray on which were tiny handleless cups. Her father filled them and she passed them to the guests.
