The man that patrotizes the Chicago
nail-order concerns whenever he has
the ready cash and asks the home mer-
chant to extend him credit when he has
not available funds to deal with the
mail-order concern can hardly lay any
valid claim to sympathy when he may
need it in a business way or support
when he may seek it in the political line.
1t is the man that stands for home in
dustries, the man that devotes his
capital, 80 far as practicable to the up
building of enterprises at home that
finds the glad hand extended to him.
The satisfaction that one receives from
seeing the goods he purchases before
paying for them ought to be one of the
strongest reasons for trading at home in
preference to doing business with a
concern thousand miles away.

The collection, which has been care
fully catalogued, contains hundreds of
articles. He has guns, swords, revolvers
and knives galore and for a moment the
visitor examining the collection for the
first time would imagine that he was in
an arsenal. The array of old china
would make the cOnnoisseur covetous.
There are dozens of styles and shapes in
the "old-fashioned' blue plates that our
grandmothers used three quarters of a
century ago. Pitchers, tea-pots and
plates of pewter, sets of britannia, brass
candlesticks and scores of similar arti-
Giles are to be found in Mr.. Stones col
lection.
Pieces of wood from famous articles
and objects make up large part of the
collection. A set of Civil War envelopes
each bearing a design or motto and
representing the sentiments of the North
and South are particularly interesting.
He has also a complete set of United
States cents, dating from the first mint
Continental, fractional and Confederate
currency make up good sized corner of
the collections.
To attempt to give complete cata-
logue of Mr.. Stones collection would
take several columns of space and then
one would get but an inadequate idea of
the hundreds of interesting articles that
compose it. 1t must be seen to be APP
preciated. 1t is valued in the thousands
of dollars and while it is securely housed
at Mr.. Stones residence on North Plea
SAINT street he is contemplating more
secure quarters for it where the risk of
fire will be reduced. Hundreds of local
people and visitors to town have ex-
amined this very interesting collection
and pronounced it one of the finest
private collections of its size that they
have seen.

The Railway World, in commenting
upon the powerful indictment of the pro-
gram of railway rate regulation by Rich
ard Olney United States Attorney Gener-
al and Secretary of State under the second
Cleveland Administration should bear
in mind that it quotes from the utterances
If one of the most prominent opponents
Of the present administration in Wash
ington. The Railway World says: Son
sidered as a business proposition, the
overwhelming weight of testimony is
against the passage of any measure
which would confer upon the Interstate
Commerce Commission the rate making

To be sure the weight of testimony
that may be introduced by railroads will
doubtless be against any proposition that
tends to take an iota of strength from
any corporate interest.

a Bra n d on Inventor.

In an article upon the early electric
locomotive the Burlington News says:
There lived in Brandon, VT, in the
year 1884, blacksmith of the name of
Thomas Davenport. He was not only IA
good smith but a man of advanced
thought, and possessed of a remarkable
genius for experimenting ON various
lines and in this year he constructed
a model electric motor car which ran
upon few feet of circular track and
was actuated by galvanic battery.

The Montreal Gazette in commenting
upon the recently enacted statute in
Vermont, relative to the examination of
all school children for auricular and
visual defects says:
Under the provisions of a Vermont
statute, an examination made of the
eyesight of the children attending the
public schools of st. Adams, no less than
90 per cent were found to have defective
vision. The parents of the children so
affected will now be called upon to
assume responsibility for their care and
treatment, This is as far as the law goes.
1t does not make failure to attend to the
warning a criminal offence. In that 1t
is wise, much wiser than much of the
legislation of a similar nature, to the
passage of which some American legisla-
lures are so greatly addicted. Neverthe-
less the responsibility of the parent to
the state and to the child is still there,
and it will be a thouShtless and ignorant
parent which does not heed the warning
given. Thousands of children are max
ing their way through the public schools
today severely handicapped by defects of
vision, which strain the eyes and nerves
so that the child is unable to attain the
position to which its mental capacity
would otherwise entitle it. And the
damage being done now will, unless it is
attended to, follow the child through
life, whereas the defect may be fire.
quently and easily overcome in youth.
There are so many fads thrust upon the
atten ton of parents nowadays, that the
things which should be attended to are
apt to be included among the freaks,
We have not yet got the law that is on
the Vermont statutes, but we should
have the parents who do not require
urging do their duty to their offspring.

anteed by w. a. Sheldon.

The most frequent affection of the
stomach is catarrh, as the delicate mem
brane which lines the stomach is easily
irritated by harmful food or overeating.
Keep strict watch for the first symp-
toms of stomach trouble. Take this
friendly warning in the spirit in which
it is given and profit by it,
Shortness of breath, black specks
before the eyes, furred tongue. dizziness,
belching of gases or sour food, weakness
and debility are all signs of catarrh of
the stomach. There is no need to be
unduly alarmed, for this disease can be

REV. G. c. LAMSON RESIGNS
Will Go from Montpelier to the First Bap-
tist Church in Hyde Park Mass.

Will Go from Montpelier to the First Bap-
fist Church in Hyde Park, Mass.
The Rev Guy C. Lamson, for the past
four years pastor of the First Baptist
church of Montpelier, announced to his
congregation last Sunday morning and
to the First Baptist church of Hyde Park,
Mass, his acceptance of the call to the
pastorate at Hyde Park, his resignation
in Montpelier to take effect Dec. /. O..
Mr.. Lamsons departure from Mont
pelier will be regretted not only by the
members.of his church and congregation,
know and love him during his pastorate
in that city. The church to which Mr..
Lamson goes has membership of nearly
400 and is in every way very thriving
condition.
Mr.. Lamson was born in Newfane,
June 30, 1875. He was educated in the
public schools at Brattleboro and in the
North street private school in that
village, at Middlebury College and the
Baptist Theological Seminary at Roch-
ester, N. Y. Immediately on leaving the
theological school he was appointed mis-
sionary pastor for Vermont by the State
Baptist Association. He held this posi-
ton for two years, going to any part of
the State where his services were re-
quired in infusing new life into dead
churches. Most of his work was in
Addison county and the resuscitated
churches at Panton, Addison and West
Cornwall are monuments to Mr. Lam
sons work. He became pastor of the
First Baptist church in Montpelier in
February, 1902. When he went ther, the
church was several thousand dollars in
debt This debt has been entirely wiped
out during Mr. Lamson's pastorate and
$25O0 has been expended in repairs on
the edifice. About year ago Mr.. Lam
son declined cell to be assistant pastor
of Calvary Baptist church of New York
Ncity. of which the Rev. DIR. Robert L.
Macarthur is pastor. Mr.. Lamson was
chaplain of the House of Representatives
in the Legislature of 1904
