DIRECTOR OF ROAD.
Says New Haven Stock Is Worth $500
 Share.

New York, June 5.--A director of the New Haven railroad was quoted In Wall Street yesterday to the effect that the valuation of the road which Is be- ing made by John F. Stevens, former ly chief engineer of the Panama canal, would probably demonstrate value for the New Haven shares of $500 each, The same director also said that if the real estate alone of the New Haven road could be sold at the price at which property adjacent to it was now selling the proceeds would be suf- ficient to liquidate it's entire indebted ness, leaving the remainder of the road and equipment a free asset.

A Vermont Advertising Agency,

Fortunately the time has passed
when the business of running an ad-
vertising agency is engaged in by men
who have failed of success in every
other line of effort, with the idea that
is a quick road TO riches. In past
wears Vermont has been the field of
operations of several short lived agen-
cies for the promotion of publicity,
some of which have been good while
they lasted and others Of which have
"done good" the newspapers of the
state. They have all passed away, one
by one, but few years ago an adver-
Using agency was started in Burling'
ton by a man who knew all about adj
vertisng in country newspapers, such
as exist in Vermont, both from the
newspaper end and from the advertis-
er's end. Lynn NJ. Hays, a practical
publisher, and NJ. C. Reynolds, a sue
cessfuI business man, conduct the Hays
Advertising agency along lines which
have made successful the larger agen-
cies of the great cities. They are con
tent to work hard for small profits and
to put every effort steadfastly forth to
improve the advertising field and to
bring results to the advertiser. That
their efforts have been crowned with
success must be gratifying. not only
to them, but to the publishers of the
state and to home and foreign adver-
tisers. 1t is a pleasure to give word
of commentator to an enterprise of
this nature which promises to be a
strong factor in the future develop
ment and commercial prosperity of this

WE WANT GOOD ROADS.

Brattlehoro's decision at its annual
meeting last week Tuesday to employ
two road commissioners during the
coming year was not due 10 the belief
that two commissioners are better than
one. but 70 strongly-nourished feel
ing that the highways In the many out
living portions of the town have been
neglected until their condition has be-
come absolutely intolerable. The resi-
dents of these sections were not par
tieularly DESTROYS of having two com
missoncrs, They felt however, that
the attitude of Mr.. Eames heretofore,
gave them small ground for hope that
there would be any change the coming
wear under his administration, and
rather than to see another year 60 by
without any improvement in the high
WAYS they undertook aud won the fight
for second commissioner. This feel
ing ON the part Of the residents IN the
outlying sections is well worth consid'
cring in connection with the important
question of good roads. That 1t is well
grounded there is not shadow OF
doubt. In spite of the large amounts
of money that Brattlcboro has eN-
ncnded in highway construction in re
cent wears. the fact remains that the
roads of the town are in exceedingly
moor condition. And the worst feature
of this is that they have shown no I'M
movement since Mr.. Eames came into
Office five years ago.
Something must be done to remedy
this before another year goes by. just
what the remedy shall be is a question
that will bear agitation. The present
administration has spent quantities OF
money in drawing gravel TO use on the
highways but the result has not been
entirely satisfactory On some roads
gravel does well enough, perhaps, but
on those subject to heavy travel its
short life is a strong point against ITS
value. Why not make use of the stone
crushing plant which the town owns
Why not pay the farmers for stone de
Iivered at the crusher and use the
product on the highways instead of
gravel? This does not necessarily mean
the construction of the most expensive
kind of macadam roads. During j.
T. Perry S last term as road commits
sioner he built just beyond the iron
bridge in West Brattlcboro a strip Of
stone road which today is in nearly as
good condition as when it was con
structed. and the cost was not prohlbl-
tive. Mr.. Perry's plan was to extend
a road of this kind down Western ave
me, and had he remained in office the
entire length of that highway would
have been finished in that manner.
Wouldn t that have been an improve
ment over Western avenue as it is at
present? We should say as much.
1t is high time that the citizens OF
Brattleboro gave this matter of good
roads serious consideration. The new
highway law which provides for per-
manent bodybuilding under the direc-
ton of a competent superintendent
will no doubt accomplish much, but
there is no reason why practically all
of this towns highway money cannot
be spent for roads of such durability
that the cost of keeping them in repair
will be a very small item We want
good roads, Mr.. Eames. Keep this in
mind when planning your work for the
coming season.

Craving for Drink

thing that will strengthen the drunk
ards wrecked nervous system and cure
his unnatural craving for drink. We

to be cured of the liquor habit can cure
himself by using Orrine. This remark

among our customers that we are glad to
sell it under an absolute guarantee to re-
fund the money if it does not cure.
1t is in two forms; No. | that can be
given secretly, and No . for those who
wish to be cured. 1t is not only the
most reliable treatment known, but it is
also the most economical as it costs only

1t requires no argument to show that
the manner in which local prohibition
is enforced in Burlington, Morrlsvllle
and other towns voting against license
for the first time under local option
will have far,reaching effects. The
demonstration of the efficacy of the
law to enforce prohibition in Burning
ton and other towns when the people
vote against license by a pronounced
majority, as in the recent election, Will
almost inevitably serve to fix local OPP
ton as the permanent policy of Yer
mont. The failure of prohibition IN
these places may leave the fate OF the
local option-license law still to be de.
cided, even though the operation OF
the law in other large towns IN the
state has thus far served to create SEN
timent in its favor.-Burlington Free
Press.
If the majority of the people in Bur
lington or any other town or city in
Vermont really desire actual prohibl-
ton there is no question that they can
get it under the local-option law, for
if already has been demonstrated what
the system can accomplish with strong
public sentiment behind it, The trou-
BILE is likely to be with the people
themselves. If, for example, liquor
selling goes on in Burlington under no
license it will show that the citizens
of that city We're prompted by other
motives than those of temperance when
they voted no. The failure of prohibl-
ton in Burlington will not affect the
worth of local-option as method OF
handling the liquor traffic; it will sim
plv show the insincerity of those who
brought about the change.
