With bated breath the waist lover
pauses before the lace blouses of ex-
elusive fashioning. Cluny lace is most
popular, and other rich, heavy, laces
are used to make blouses that sag or
their own weight yet which show ricn-
ness in every inch.
Venetian point and genuine old laces
| are initiated with success in blouse
materials The fad seems to be for
bewildering mingling of Medallions,
Ifrills and nets in one waist and per.
| haps a little hand embroidery thrown
! in.
| Long-sh 1uldered effects of the XII
mono sleeve are most popular in the
laces. Again the shoulder-strap idea
of oriental embroidery with much
lounced sleeve is shown In very ex-
pensive imDOrtations The lace frilis
of sleeves are made exceedingly full,
and while the evening waists curtail
the length to the elbow, the afternoon
styles lengthen to three-quarters, and
the mitten sleeve in lace Is bound TO
be accepted, especially by devotees Of
the golf course.
Among the silk waists for odd occas'
ions Persian patterns have come
again. It seems as If colors could not
be too gay nor too rich, and the short
eclipse of last year only gave the SILK
manufacturers time to take breath and
to evolve something sayer than ever
has been seen before.
Persian patterns are indescribabis
gorgeous. The Persian-bordered taffe-
tas in blue, brown and black, with Dor
ders unspeakaDly lovely, are woven es-
pecially for waistings. Then there are
the new moire stripes, and the ready-sD-
wear waists of these are gay and rich.
! Simple silks show edges OF the
Greek key and the honeysuckle con-
vential design, which will maks MP
satisfactorily. The ready-to-wears IN
these are refined to a fault. Barred
and plaid silks in color are cut into
blouses hand embroidered In plain
silks and trimmed with buttons and
|dyed Iaces.

The average life OF a passenger car
is about twenty-five years, though
they are rather like the Trfshmans
knife. He had all the blades renewed
twice, had c. new handle and severa
springs put into it and yet it was the
same old knife. And so with the car
1t is overhauled so many times during
its life that it may not have singh
bit of it's original self In 1t when I
goes to the scrap heap. 1t starts on
as one of the finest cars of the crack
limited of the road. In a year or tw
it goes down to the ordinary expires
train, then to the main line accommo'
dation train, then to the branch line
and finally it is hitched on to work
train. from whence it goes to the
scrap heap.

Net and cluny waists are particu-
larIy enchanting. The filet lace waist
is made plain over tinted silk slips and
with three-quarter leeyes. Bands of
filet lace fall over the shoulders in the
Japanese long shoulder styles. The
simple net blouse becomes elaborate
when a yoke of contrasting Il and
medallions are inserted. Blouses Of
this order, some of which launder in
the home tub and all of which clean
nicely, are TO be had from So up.
Messoline silk waists with dainty
yokes and frills of val lace in evening
shades of pink. blue, white or green
are charming in expensive inventions
for necessary dress occasions, begin
ming at So and climbing to $50, accord
ing to the trimming, the quality of the
lace and the originality of the design.

stock a thorough fright and close
call la both games. Moreover he
knew the cause for Barton's of play

players sick on the held in those
games.
In view, therefore, of Mr.. Howes'
conduct with St. Johnsbury and with
Barton this sson, as well as with
Randolph the past two seasons, there
seems to the writer TO be full justifi-
cation for the very thing he complains
of,-the fling in some of our adyer-
tising matter that he vas "afraid to
take his team OF their home grounds.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
Season Over, but Dispute Not Yet

EDITOR MONITOR
A letter from e. 3. Howes, mana
ger Woo6s.ock baseball team, pub
lished in your issue of September %,
has just come TO my attention.
The final arrangement, made before
we played the games with Wood
stock, was that the Barton tsam
should play two games at Woodstock,
August % and %, aCd that Woodstock
should play two games az Barton the
following week, September 4 and 5,
or September aud @.
A three game series had been talked
of, but was abandoned because Mr.
Howes agreed with me that the cost
OF transportation over 200 miles, was
too much to be made out of a single
game, and that It was better economy
to play two games ii each place. The
matter of 6fth game was left until
the contingency OF tie should arise.
Thus the matter stood when We left
Woodstock Thursday afternoon, Aug.
20, the only point to be decided was
which day, September 4 or 5, would
convenience Woodstock best for their
first game at Barton, and this Mr..
Howes agreed to let me know by
phone by p. N. TIE following day, so
as to give ample tune to advertise the
games. He Jailed to do this, but sent
me word by Mr.. J. j. Marrinan cam
ceiling the gsmss, with the excuse
that he could not keep his team to-
gether after September .. That such
excuse was wholly fictitious appears
from the fact that on the following
Monday he arranged with Dir. Ralph
Laird, manager OF the st. Johnsbury
team, to play that team two games OF
Saturday, Sept. 7, at Woodstock
wholly refusing to consider any offel
to take his team TO st. Johnsbury
These games he later cancelled, OIL
the plea that 8. Johnsbury had ;
padded team,-auother fictitious ex
cuse, for the st. J. team certainly hs'
a perfect claim to regularity.
1t is certain that the two Barton
St. Johnsbury games, played during
Barton fair.were much higher elias
baseball than ths two Barton Wood
stock games. An analysis CT tn
record of these games proves it mos
clearly. So also the games played b
Barton at Morrisviile and Jefferson
vile were Of a much higher order c
baseball than the two Barton Wood
stock games. An analysis of tn
other games played by BARTON durin
the season might be cited to the sam
effect, but these ere sufficient to sho'
that the manager of the Woodstoc
team must have known that the Bal
ton team were not playing up to the
usual form in the two Woodstoc

Weakens the Tissues and Lessons
organic Vitality.
The stress and strain of the strenu
Gus lie in both city and country tends
towards stomach troubles.
Five people suffer to-day where
one did ten years ago with sick head
ache. dizziness, fl .tulence, distress
after eating, specks before the eyes,
bloating, nervousness, sieeplessness
and the many other symptoms of in
digestion.
All who are suffering with stomach
troubles, aud that means at least
two out of three in Barton and other
towns, should use Mio-na stomach
tablets. Nothing else is as safe, yet
effective; nothing else can be so
thoroughly relied upon to relieve all
troubles from Indigestion as Miro ma.
It is not mere digestive taken
after the food is eaten, but a true
tonic, stimulant and strengthened for
the muscular walls of the stomach,
increasing the flow of digestive fluids
and putting the stomach into such
condition that it does the work
nature expects of it
So reliable is Mi ma ia its curative
action that Fred D. Pierce, with
every 50-cent box he sells, gives a
guarantee to refund the money unless
the remedy does all that is claimed
for it.

The Taft press bureau ia busy.
First comes the information on a
post card that "E:eyen Big States are
for Taft" AMI gives the figures to
convince one that these IL big states
are solid for Taft. They may be solid
for Taft but the proof must be more
convincing to the thinking voter than
that presented on the card mentioned.
Because out OF $50 votes sent the
Chicago Tribune from the state of
Nebraska "a state with more than
100000 population Taft had S6
and the largest number cast for any
one candidate, We are led to believe
the state is solid for Taft. Because
$50 voters out OF a possible $50, 900
cast a preliminary choice ballot for
Taft signifies nothing very definite.
BY. the-way we should like to see the
flgnres of the eastern states, taken
by the Chicago Tribune. We know it
was taken but never heard a word
from it since. Probably these states
are not for Taft.
