The Minor Virtues.

The London Outlook tells the fol-
lowing: Nothing" Mr.. Chamber
lain once said, permanently good
or permanently great was ever done
except at the sacrifice of some of
the minor virtues"
"And which are the minor viz
tues {" The question was instant.
He turned his cigar slowly in his
mouth before answering, a favorite
trick Of his, and then a dry smile
played across the strongly nodded
mouth as he replied, "Those which
have to be sacrificed"

What He Meant.

Mr.. Griggsfeld was a man who
meant well, but was unfortunately
addicted to the habit of saying the
wrong thing at all times and in all
circumstances. An acquaintance of
his had suffered severe injuries in
railway wreck, including a broken
nose, the loss Of three or four teeth
and a cash across one of his cheeks,
but his hurts were not serious, and
he was soon on the street again,
somewhat disfgured, but in good
working order. One of the first men
to greet him after his recovery was
Mr.. Griggsfeld, who grasped him
cordially by the hand and exclaimed:
"Hello, Williamsl 1 understand
you have been pretty badly hurt. I
am glad to see you SO much improv-
ed"
Later, when he reflected upon it,
he understood why Mr.. Williams re-
ape.A1o1 he Ala esss4i.Ae -zzitl. asAalA a

DR.. W. N. Bryant states that sew

Mount Holly, Shrewsbury, Brandon,
Chittenden and Pittsford. There is
in Cuttingsville, a snug little plateau
100 feet above the sea, protected ON
three sides by forest clad mountains
circling it like crescent, which
would make an ideal spot for sana-

A story is told by French paper
of two provincials, a man and his
wife, who visited the Louvre In
Paris.
'What struck you most at the
Louvre?" asked one Of their friends
when they returned home and began
to tell Of the wonders they had seen.
"Oh," replied the husband, "a
picture that represented Adam and
Eve, with the apple and the ser
pent."
And his excellent wife chimed in,

because, you know, we knew the

How To Win Premiums on Poultry.

J. 7. Uric Of Craftsbury, VT, was
Ane Of the largest exhibitors of poultry
at the Lamoille Valley Fair at Norris

care and attention he gives to his fowls.
Poultry keepers will doubtless be in

gagement in Justice Reid's court
in Portland in different role.
Keane will come before the bar
of justice as defe dant in a suit
instituted against him by Her
bert Ashton and wifeand Tsays
West and wife, former members
of the Keane Dramatic Com
Dany, to recover $3.50 salary
alleged to be due them and fares

The winter season is now on and
while the plaintiffs in this suit
may be able to rlde on the train
to San Francisco at their own ex-
pense, they propose to see Kea1e
purchase the railroad tickets.
The trouble is all on account of
the dismissal by Keane of Messrs
Ashton, West and their wives.
Keane concluded to reorganize
the company and put on only
''Dr. Jekyl and Mr.. Hyde" !"
consequently a fortnight before
Christmas he gave Ashton and
wife and Tony West and his
better half the customary two
weeks notice. It is rule IN
theatrical circles that the week
before Christmas which is called
Christmas week, manager is
entitled to lay his company of
and pay the members nothing,
and if he plays the company
only half salaries are paid. The
reason of this is that the week is
a great one tor shopping and light
business is expected at the
theaters. The same rule applies
), during holy week.
)! Keane invoked this rule against
his discharged players. They
objected claiming that where
they had received a final dis.
charge on two weeks notice they
were entitled to full pay for the
i final week of their engagement
whether it was Christmas week
or any old week. They also
! demanded fares to San Francisco
where they signed alleging that
they are entitled to transportation
back to the starting point. Keane
declined to pay even in stage
money, and the result was thai
John F. Logan was employed te
collect the bill, and has startee
