LETTER TO
E. B. ROBINSON,
BARTON. VT.


Dear Sir: If you could get the exclusive
sale of a sweeter sugar for five miles round
u pound as sweet as pound of US ual sugar,
and cost no more-you'd jump at it,
wouldn't you?
There wouldn't b 100 lbs of any other sugar
sold in a year in your town; you'd gobble the
trade; and it wouldn't hurt your whole bust
ness.
Devoe is like that among paints; it is twice
as sweet as some; it is sweeter than any; not
one exception; one gallon is two or one-and-
a. half or one and three quarters.
Better than that; paint has to be painted;
that costs 50 to 81 gallon. A gallon saved is
81 to 81 saved in labor besides the paint.
Even that isn't all. A gallon Devoe put on
wears as long as two gallons put-on at cost
| of 81 to 81 "a gallon and two gallons more put
| on at So to 81 gallon. Count all that The
paint that wears double costs less by three
| gallons of paint and three gallons of paint
| ing; that's about $15 gallon for those super
| ffuous gallons.
That's as good as double sweet sugar, ism
| it?
Yours truly,
F. w. DEvoE.& Co.,

ThOughtIess Shoe tina of Deer

A peculiar case in the illegal killing
of deer occurred in Cabot recently.
Clement Rowland, who was looking
over farm, was accompanied by his
nephew, Wilbur Rowland, son OF
Charles Rowland, and a lad of II
years, who carried a rifle. The boy
was in advance OF the men, and came
suddenly upon a herd of eight deer,
and hastily drew his rifle, firing into
the herd three times. He hit a three
or four-year-old doe, breaking one
lore leg and the bullet entering the
body in such manner as to bleed the
animal thoroughly, causing her death
in a few minutes. Mr.. Rowland at
once notified the county warden at
Narshheld, who communicated with
State Fish and Game Commissioner
IL. G. Thomas as to the prosecution
of the case. The commissioner re.
ply was Prosecute the case; there is
no other way" The in ured deer

The Montpelier Journal, while be.
lieving that the grand jury is a
relic of the past that has long out
lived its usefulness" has good
word for the recent Washington
county special grand jury, in that it
did its work promptly, and adds
that if all grand juries would act
promptly and adjourn as quickly as
did that one "there would be little
in this line of which to complain"
When a grand jury gets right down
to its work and does that which it
should do quickl V and promptly there
will be little complaint, but when a
body of men get together and pro-
long their days for the sake of draw
ing pay and find true bills" many
of which never result in more than a
great expense to the state, the peo-
pie have reason to find fault. We too
believe that the grand jury has out
lived its usefulness and that the ends
of Justice would be better reached and
The law best subserved by leaving
the work that comes before that
body with the court officials.

A fatal Accident

their dressing mill about 7 o'clock,
a. M, Wednesday, walking on the
track, a locomotive ran up behind
him, breaking four ribs, his leg twice
and injuring him so severely inter
nally that he died Thursday noon.
He was taken home Wednesday but
never regaiued consciousness. Two
years ago Mr.. Sheldon broke his leg
and has walked with a crutch I'M
til recently, and it is supposed his
lameness prevented his getting off
the track after hearing the coming
engine. Mr.. Sheldon was born in
Stowe but has lived most of his life
in Wolcott and has nearly always
worked as mill man. He went to
Barton Landing about four years
ago. He was forty-seven years old
last January. He was genial kind
hearted man and affectionate hus-
band and father. He was married
to Miss Nora Oviatt eighteen years
ago and leaves son and daughter.
Besides his family he leaves to mourn
his loss his brother, F. P. Sheldon of

Goodman of Randolph and many
other friends and relatives. The fun
