THE YOUNG ARCHITECT.
Trials of a Pioneer Artist in the Rural
 Districts.

Trials of a Pioneer Artist in the Rural
 Districts.
 Among the graduates that every year leave an architectural school are the lone plucky fellows who elect to start out of their own will and set up shop for themselves. Of this small body of the plueky there is hardler and pluckier figure yet-a figure who might inspire a novel all to himself-a figure 1t Is not impossible to conceive of as sublime in his way. He goes from his school to the small town inland, where the first national banker desires turned gewgaws laid all over his front porch. and the grocer asks for an oriel window in his kitchen, There he bat ties with these peoples earnest but absurd wants battles for his high ideals for the small fees that everybody is surprised at his asking as if the poor fellow had not enough to do to battle successfully With the difficulties that go along with any effort at realizing on paper and afterward in brick and stone the ideas that germinate in the head, so beautiful and so hard to ex- press.
 Beautiful designs he made and not costly. They only bewilder these good people, or perhaps insult them With suggestions of matters beyond their comprehension. And the good people go across the street to Jones, the car- penter- architect. Jones has always been able to draw plans for the new summer kitchen or the new gable on the roof. Jones will know exactly what they want. Church committees get up unfair competitions, as they always do: and the young graduate labors nights. and draws a handsome Tudor Gothic chapel, with a door, in his best manner and all the detail in key. His plan only stupefies the com mittee, and the contract goes to Jones, whom the committee had in mind all along
 So the poor fellow works on. He has to create his market before he can sell it his goods. Meanwhile the tailor scowls at himfrom across the street. His landlady becomes an opressive personality. The walls of his office come to the plastered with his re- Iected perspectives. He views them fondly of his cobwebbed window, and wonders If he shall ever teach these people what are really is.
 If he sticks and waits, his day comes. It has come to other good walters and stickers before him, At last Banker Bangs consents to let him have his hand free and go ahead with plans for a pretty house in Old English style. By gad that is pretty!' he has to ad- init when the thing is finished, The same noble thought suddenly occurs to Grocer Billings one Sunday afternoon, passing the Bangs mansion. He in- stantly wants something like 1t, only nicer. An epidemic of Old English is started. And so Caleb Waite architect, though how with a few gray hairs about his temples, has at last instruct ed his public and gained his day.

that of Representative Waller, Both Were among the youngest members of the house during the last session; both Were staunch republicans and both held important positions in committee work, Both will find interesting fields of work in the senate during the com Ing session and new political distinc- tion and honor. George H. Hall has received the republican nomination for the senate in the Fifth district and will be the successor of D. Newton Barney who represents the district at the present time Mir Hall has been in the legislature two terms from Bris- tol and was a member of the state con- vention in September which nominated Woodruff and Lake While Bristol was anti-Lake, MT. Hall voted for his nomination in the convention. He is superintendent in one of Session manu- factories in Bristol and will take to the senate large business experience and judgment. It is regarded as a misfor- tune that Senator Barney allowed his name to go before the convention as a candidate for renomination. He has great wealth at his disposal and is a director of the Consolidated railroad company. His public spirit in the town of Pennington has been ex- pressed in numerous ways and 1t is to be regretted that he could not have foreseen defeat in the convention and kept out of 1t. That would have been the wiser course. Had he been nomi- mated ex-County Commissioner Beers sof Bristol would have run against him on the democratic side. Now MT. Beers will avoid the nomination of his party.

HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL.

Action of Principals in Chicago Toward
 Discouraging the Sport.
 The physicians and educators who investigated the game of football last year were nearly unanimous in oppos- ing it as a sport for secondary schools. While there is something to be said on both sides of the question of college football, the opinion is general that 1t is too dangerous a sp0rt for boys under the college age The friends of college football themselves brought forward statistics to prove that most of the accidents reported by the daily papers were among the younger boys who were not able to stand the strain Weakened hearts, broken ribs legs and arms and other injured memoers were to be found, especially among th'

MT. James Terry, the well-known ex- libris collector of Hartford, Conn, and the publisher of the Elk Libris Leaflets says the Boston Transcript devotes No
 of this printed series of valuable pamphlets to the plate of Allyn Hyde of Ellington, Conn.,, together with a review of An Early Connecticut En- graver and His Work" wherein he pays his respects, in no uncertain terms, to the author who places "a degenerate convict, of unknown origin and unknown resting place, by the name of Richard Brunton," beside such early Connecticut engravers as Buell., Doolittle and others. Mr. Terry points out several errors and omissions in the work of MT. Bates, and while he thinks Brunton may have been an engraver, he fails to find Mir. Bates evidence sufficient to identify the counterfeiter Brunton as the Richard Brunton who advertised in a Provi- dence paper of 1781, or who engraved the Washington plate in that year. It may be mentioned, in addition, that on page s MT. Bates mentions Brunton as without doubt a counterfelter of paper money printed from plates cut by himself" but the court record on page is: Make sundry types and dies for the purpose of counterfeiting the true silver coin.' Again Brunton is made to say: that he had completed only the plates for one side of some bills," but it Is strange that an en- graver should make such a statement, as bank bills were not engraved on both sides until many years after this. To those who are interested In the matter a careful perusal of MT. Bates fAn Early Connecticut En- graver and His Work should be fol- lowed by an equally careful reading of MT. Terry's Leatlet, The plate which Mir Terry presents in the volume is that of Allyn Hyde, M. D., and is printed from the original copper, which MT. Terry obtained from one of the members of the family. MT. Hyde was born in 1774 and died in 1856. The en- graver of the plate, which has never before reproduced, is unknown.

1t is because most women suffer from
some arrangement of their delicate
organism, the discomfort of which is
less trying when they are in motion
than when standing.
In some states laws compel employers
to provide resting places for their fe-
male employees.
But no amount of law can regulate
the hard tasks of these women. They
must get the strength which this work
demands or run the risk of serious
diseases and the surgeons knife.
Read the experience of Miss Margret
Merkley, 275 Sd Street, Milwaukee,
Wis:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
"Gradual loss Of strength, nervousness,
bearing down pains and extreme irritation
compelled me to seek medical advice. The
doctor said had diseased organs and ulcer
alton, and advised an operation If wanted
to get well. objected to this and decided
to give Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound trial. I soon found that all the good
things said about this great medicine were
true. The liberation soon healed, backache,
headache and nervousness disappeared, and
in a short time was strong, vigorous and
perfectly well. wish every working girl
who suffers would try Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound"
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound is a vegetable tonic which invfg-
crates and strengthens the entire fe-
male organism, and will produce the
same beneficial results in the cases of
other sick women as with Miss Merkley.
