Good Advertising Pays.

The st. Adams Messenger says:
zone st. Adams merchant who, as
one phase of his up-todate business
methods, has been making a quiet study
of the effects of newspaper advertising,
says that he needs more space and has
taken it. This man keeps his adver-
tisement in one place so that readers
of the paper always know where to find
it, changes it two or three times a week
and always makes it say something to
the point when he does change it. In
short, he makes it just as much part
of his business to advertise properly as
he does to buy his goods with judg-
ment and discretion. Such men know
that advertising pays. His business, the
character of his stock, the stability of
his credit, all show it, too"
This is the invariable result. Not one,
but half dozen of the reliable progress
sive firms of this town have proved the
truth of the above.

Eastwood Taken to Windsor.

Doctors G. S. Foster of Putney, L. NJ.
Greene of Bethel, and F. E. Steele of
Montpelier, supervisors of the insane,
have pronounced Frederick Eastwood of
Middlebury sane and have ordered that
he be taken from the state hospital for
the insane at Waterbury to the state
prison at Windsor. Eastwood was
sentenced in Addison county court to be
hanged the second Friday in March,
1908, for the murder of Franklin Fem
at Middlebury, August 4, 1899. He was
subsequently adjudged insane and was
committed to the state hospital for the
insane February 20, 1908, where he has
since remained. His death sentence has
been committed by the legislature tc
imprisonment for life and he will now
be put to work in state prison.

Will Print the Formulas.

While several State Legislatures are
being urged to pass laws compelling the
manufacturers of patent medicines to
print the formulas on the outside of each
package, the j. G. Aver company, of
Lowell, Mass, has voluntarily adopted
the practise. Any one who wants to
know what its famous Sarsaparilla is
made of, can now easily find out. What
the effect of this will be upon the sales
of the medicine is problematical, but
doubtless it will be beneficial. The pos
session of formula does not convey to
its holder the ability to compound it.
There is not druggist in the country
who does not make sarsaparlla of his
own. Anyone who wants Ayers Sarsa-
parilla will still have to buy it; he can't
make it even with the formula before
him.-Newspaperdom, n. Y.

M odern Educ ation,

The Lyndonville Journals comment
on little paragraph in recent issue of
the Ludlow Tribune is well worth seri-
GUS considerations:
est. Adams high schools are to teach
spelling hereafter. For the lands sake,
we learned all that stuff at the old
deestrick skule. "-Ludlow Tribune.
''If the Tribune's editor spells as well
as he writes, we extend our congratu-
lations and place him among the excep-
tons says Lyndonville Journal. But the
majority of English speaking people find
correct spelling difficult in varying
degrees. Even the college graduate
often finds himself deficient in this par
ticular. We don't know that there is
any more poor spelling than ever but
there is more than there ought to be.
The fault may be laid equally with the
primary and high schools and the col
leges. The old fashioned education was
narrow but accurate; the new fashioned
is broad but, to use an every day ex-
preston, is spread out too thin. New
methods of teaching reading may be to
blame for some of the poor spelling
The child learns to recognize word by
its general form rather than from
general analysis of the word into sounds
and letters. In high schools and colleges,
teachers do not insist on the use of a
dictionary and allow students to slide
through geology and astronomy without
being able to spell or pronounce the
common technical words of the sicence
If teachers will insist upon accuracy
and discourage slipshod methods of
study on the part of their pupils, there
will be an improvement in spelling as
well as in other respects

A Word for Mrs, DarIinu,

The New York Press, in its Washing
ton correspondence, has an "apprecia-
ton" of Mrs. Charles H. Darling which
will be read with interest in Vermont.
The Press says: 1.-THE wife of the Assist
ant Secretary of the Navy is a woman of
consequence in the District of Columbia
by right of her husbands position, apart
from her personal qualifications. Among
in national society have been two who
fulfilled their social duties so brilliantly
as to need no reflection of their lord
lustre. One of those women is Mrs.
Roosevelt, who when the President held
that Office, made her cleverness and
amiability apparent in the first few
weeks. The other is Mrs. Charles H.
Darling. whose husband stands in the
official shoes out of which Mr.. Roosevelt
stepped to don the putters of the Rough
Riders. Mrs. Darling is a sparkling
young woman, who one of these days
doubtless will be the center of still
broader social sphere. She has tact,
one of the handsomest matrons Wash
ingtOn has seen in many a day and her
sympathy with everything making for
the betterment of humanity endears her
to thinkers as cordially as her brightness
compes the admiration of those who
like life's lighter shades"

Investigate the State institutions.
Spare no one. Let in the light. If they
have been well managed the people
should know it. If not they should
know it. The st. Adams Messenger
well says:
zone result of the investigation of
state institutions promises to be the put
ting to an end of mysterious official
secrecy on the part of public servants
and the substitution of a policy that
recognizes the right of newspapers to
tell the people about their own business.
There would be less talk and scandal
today if this policy had been in force
long ago. There is nothing like the sun
light of newspaper publicity in dark
corners to keep things clean.

The death of Arthur Ropes, editor of
the Montpelier Waterman and Daily
journal, removes from a sphere of great
usefulness and influence one of the
ablest members of this profession. He
was a man with high ideals the courage
OF his convictions and left his impress
for good upon the history of Vermont.
AS the Messenger well says "'He was
one of the most forCeful writers that the
editorial profession in Vermont has pro-
duced IN many years. Possessed Of a
strong and distinctive personality, an
alert mind well stored with literary lore,
the lessons Of history. and the detailed
story of the political life of his day and
generation Mr.. Ropes united with all
this an energy and public spirit that for
years kent him in the forefront of YER
mont journalism. In his time he battled
long and ably for some of the reforms
and improvements that are slowly
creeping into Vermont life to-day. He
was one of the pioneers in the advocacy
of many benefits that the present gene
ration expects to see realized 1t was
indeed, unfortunate that the past years
of man endowed with such abundant
capacity for usefulness should be clouded
by anxiety and suffering"

States Attorney Thompson of Gale
DOMAIN has discovered an unfailing and
certain cure for that tired feeling that
causes loss of memory in witnesses in
liquor cases. The Gazette says;
He has brought action against a
Groton man for perjury, and the afore-
said man in default of 5000 bonds is
now meditating in county jail, awaiting
action by the grand jury. The man had
one of those peculiar and sudden cases
Of lost memory when called upon to
testify in a liquor case. This is some
thing that frequently occurs, and has
for years been one Of the most serious
obstacles prosecuting attorneys have to
overcome when fighting liquor sellers.
But the Gazette imagines that if one or
two men are convicted of perjury and
sentenced for the crime the lesson may
teach others that memory is a good
thing to retain when on the witness
stand, Perjury isn't trlling matter. "
