HAPPY MARRIAGES.
Value Of the Spirit of Compromise In
Welded Life.

Welded Life.
II marriag. meant the wedding of
saint and an angel there would be
no problems to solve, no projections to
attain, no progress to make. This may
be why there are no marriages in
heaven.
On earth II is different Husband
and wife are strongly human. No mat
ter how lovingly united or how sweet
their accord, they never have the same
temperaments, tendencies or tastes.
Their needs are different, their man
ner of looking at things is not identical
and In varying ways their Individual
ties assert themselves. At any critical
moment If both express at the same
time a desire to defer to the others
taste the result is foreordaned-hap-
piness. This makes matrimony not
merely union, but unison and unity.
The spirit of compromise does not
mean continuous performance in the
way of self surrender and self sacri-
fee; 1t does not mean ceasing to be a
voice and becoming an echo; it does
not imply or justify the loss of indi-
viduality. 1t means simply the in
stinctive recognition Of the best way

tolerance In the presence of weakness
and errors Of another, the courage to
meet an explanation half way, the gen.

Vermont Savings for YER
mont Enterprises

The Springfield (Mass.) Republican,
the leading newspaper of central New
England, thus comments on the policy
of the Hyde Park Savings Bank in
keeping its funds in Vermont:
Vermonts industrial development has been
hindered not only by emigration of people to
the West but by the westward emigration of
Vermont money for investment. When there
fore large growth is reported Of Vermont
Bank like the Lamoille County savings and
trust institution at Hyde Park, which has
made it rule to invest Vermont savings in
Vermont enterprises, the fact is worth record
ing. This is in the way OF standing by ones
own community and people first of all, and it
is policy to be commended everywhere and
particularly in the hill regions of New Eng
land, so much of whose l;fe has been given to
the development OF other sections of the
country. The directing force of the Lamoille
County Bonk is ex-Gov. Carroll S. Page.
This Bank pays 4 per cent. com
pounded semi-annually on deposits of
SIoo or more.

BEST EVER WRITTEN
PRESCRIPTION WHICH ANYONE
 CAN EASILY MIX.
Said to Promptly Overcome Kidney and Bladder Affiictions-Shake
 Simple Ingredients We'll in Bottle.

Mix the following by shaking well in bottle, and take in teaspoonful doses after meals and at bedtime:
 Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. A prominent physician is the authority that these simple, harmless ingredients can be obtained at nom- final cost from any druggist even in the smaller towns.
 The mixture is said to cleanse and strengthen the clogged and inactive Kidneys, overcoming Backache, Blad- der weakness and Urinary trouble of all kinds, if taken before the stage of Bright's disease.
 Those who have tried this say it pos itively overcomes pain in the back, clears the urine of sediment and regu. lates urination, especially at night, curing even the worst forms of blad. der weakness.
 Every man or woman here who feels that the kidneys are not strong or act ing in healthy manner should mix this prescription at home and give it a trial, as it is said to do wonders for many persons.
 The Scranton (Pa.) Times was first to print this remarkable prescription in October, of 1906, since when all the leading newspapers of New York, Bos ton, Philadelphia, Pittsburg and other cities have made many announcements of it to their readers.

OWL FIGHTS LIKE EAGLE.
Huntsman Interferes with Its Pursuit
 of Squirrel.


 Allentown, Pa.-Adam Bohlinger, of Upper Milford, the other morning started for the Coleraine mountains on a squirrel hunt. He started early, so as to arrive just before sunrise, when the squirrels begin to feed
 Just as dawn was breaking Mr. Boh- finger saw monster owl fitting through the woods, and the next in- stant it darted for squirrel.
 It missed and tried again. Then Bohlinger fired. It dropped and Boh. finger tried to pick it up and immedi- ately discovered that instead of kill ing it he had only succeeded in break ing its wing.
 The wounded owl fastened its talons in Bohlinger's hand and put up so des- perate fight that before the hunter succeeded in killing 1t his face and hands were torn and scratched in a frightful manner and he was totally exhausted.
 A physician dressed and cauterized his wounds.
 The owl is one of the biggest seen along these mountains in many years, and Bohlinger will have it stuffed and mounted.

Bacon curers are usually among the most prosperous firms in Belfast, but they have had to warn the farmers throughout the north not to kill any more pigs until the strikes are settled, for it is impossible to handle the car. casses. Business has thus been divert ed to other Irish bacon-curing centers, although the majority of farmers have simply respited their pigs and are making no attempt to supply the mar ket. Danish bacon factories will thus profit.-London Standard.

WILD TRIBE OF POETS.
Picturesque People That Are Found In
 the Philippines.

Among the wild tribes to be found in the Philippines are the Bogobos, the most picturesque people in the tropics Their origin is unknown, and all sorts of opinions have been expressed concerning them. One tale told of them is that their first ances- tors were all poets and musicians, and that the dislike for the practical which is always noticeable among them has come down through the gen. erations.
 Those that have taught among the Bogobos say that given a song or a poem to learn and they will study and dream over it for hours, but give the Bogobo a problem in arithmetic and he immediately becomes ill and wants to go home.
 Living at Santa Cruz, in the Davao district, is Miss Benedict, a Chicago university woman, who is collecting everything peculiar to the Bogobo.
 It has been found that the bead work done by them is quite like that of the American Indian, but there is no other likeness in the races be- yond that

 Head in Deep Marsh Hole.

New Haven, Conn.-An internation- al calamity marked the first of the Yale geological outings, when a mum. Der of the students under the guidance of Prof. Barrett started on an expedi- tion to the quarries along Stony creek. With the party was Ponson Carlos Gnu of Shanghai, scion of the royal family of China, whose father is high in the government life of the coun- try.
 Riding to the quarries in a freight car, the students spent several hours, starting back through tSa marshes for a short cut to the railroad. Ponsol is one of the dandiest sports Yale has seen in several years, and he nearly tainted at the sight of the marsh and looked at his new fall costume. Ac- cepting the offer of Arthur Mullin, of Salem, O., to carry him across on his bacl., all went we'll until Mullin stepped into an unseen hole to his waist and the royal lad from China was thrown head foremost, his head going deep into the mud and his princely legs sticking up in the air He was rescued, but his face had changed from the Mongolian yellow to the sambo hue of the Ethiopian.

EATS NUTsJ HAS FINE HEALTH.
Squirrels Fare and Water Year
 Around Sylvester's Only Diet.

Boston.-George B. Sylvester, of Roxbury, eats nuts and nothing else the year round, doesn't drink tea, cof- fee or stimulants, the only liquid that MT. Sylvester drinks is warm water that is taken after half of his meal of nuts Is consumed.
 MT. Sylvester is a bachelor and lodges at 27 Montrose street, Roxbury. He is 61 years of age, and began to live on nuts two and half years ago, finding it cheaper way of living, and enjoys the best of health since he stopped eating other food.
 MT. Sylvester wanted some nutri- ment to take the place of meat, which was harmful to him in hot weather and didn't seem to agree with him in winter, so he decided to live on nuts, finding as much and more nutriment in them than meat. Peanuts, chest nuts and all other nuts in their sea- son are eaten by Mir. Sylvester. The only time he breaks his diet is Christ mas and Thanksgiving.
 "Mastication is the most important thing in living on nuts" said MT. Syl' vester to the reporter; eff the nuts are chewed until no taste remains then swallowed, they are the healthiest and best thing for man to live on They don't make you good looking as you can see by me, that's why you can't have my picture, but for man 61 years old I'm as healthy as can be found in Boston," Judging from Mir Sylvester's looks his statement is right.

GOAT STARVES HIMSELF.
Fine Mountain Specimen In Pittsburs
 Refuses to Eat.

Pittsburg.- as a gift to the zoo of Riverview park, Allegheny, a fine mountain goat, brought from British Columbia by D. c. Byers of Sewickley, will instead, as the result of an incident, go to the Carnegie museum. The incident was the death of the goat.
 MT. Byers and w. R. Scalfe re- turned from hunting trip of sev- eral weeks in Canada. The goat, a fine specimen, weighing more than 250 pounds, was captured in the Stickline river, on the border line between Alaska and British Columbia. It is supposed to have been chased into the water by bear.
 The death of the goat was directly due to starvation. He refused to eat bite while in captivity. On only two or three occasions did the goat drink any water, either. It was ex- pected, however, that after his being taken from the box in which he was shipped to Pittsburg he would begin eating Instead, he shied at food more than ever.
 MT. Byers says the goat has fine pair of horns and IS rias s,1ei eeft specimen in every way. When he reaches the museum and is mounted proudly on rocky pedestal, 1t is ex- pected he will attract almost as much attention as if he were alive in a zoo.
