A Successful Sale.

Pythian Hall was made very attrac-
tive Friday afternoon and evening by
the members of the 0. E. S., who held a
successful sale, supper and dance. The
fancy articles, aprons, candy, and other
good things were attractively displayed
in booths prettily decorated, and many
articles were disposed of. One of the
special attractions was the cabbage
patch, which was presided over by a
veritable Mrs. Wigs and Lovey Mary,
in the persons of Mrs. Henry E. Byron
and Mrs. Arthur M. Lang, whose cos
TUNES with the wares they displayed
made very realistic scene from the
story. The cabbages which they sold
each contained a prize. An excellent
supper was served to over 200 guests,
and the evening was spent in dancing,
which was INDUCED in by an unusually
large number. Madame Brooks orches-
ira furnished the music.

Home Investments for Savings
Banks.

The Waterbury Record thinks that the
plan OF having their Savings Bank de-
posts invested at home appeals to Yer
monters, and that this fact accounts
largely for the success of the Hyde Park
Savings Bank, whose funds are all in
vested in Vermont. 1t says:
Last Thursday, July II, was a proud
day for Ex-Gov. c. S. Page. The
Lamoille County Savings Bank, of which
Mr.. Page is president, showed that the
banks assets had passed the million
dollar mark. 1t has been the motto of
the bank since it was started that all it's
loans would be in Vermont, and today
not single dollar is loaned out of the
state. Vermonters like the plan of hay
ing their savings invested at home and
depositors like the idea of having a man
OF Mr.. Pages business ability at the
head OF the bank, thus the principal
reason why the bank is so successful.
This Bank pays 4 per cent. compound
ed semi-annually on deposits of $1OO or
more, remaining in the bank one full
year.

vice. During all this time he has faith
fully worked for the best interests of his

ing the most long service men in their
employ. The list of employees who have

years has previously been published in
these columns and it is headed by that

Museum Notes.

A fox sparrow was brought to the
Museum Saturday. 1t was found on
the edge of Danville about FIVE miles
from St. Johnsbury, and had evidently
died from some injury. While bird in
the bush is supposedi to be worth more
to ornithologists than two in the hand,
the reverse is true in this instance, since
this fox sparrow proves that these rather
rare visitors were here at an unusual
season of the year. The bird is occa-
sionally seen in the early spring on its
northward migration, but is very seldom
reported on its return trip south.
Several specimens of barberry in fruit
were sent to the Museum during the
past week by Miss Carrie Somers of
Passumpsic. She reports the shrub,
which is not common about here, to be
found in hill pasture near the town and
growing six or eight feet high

Gen. Towards Autobiography.

Mrs. Susan M. Hill of St. Johnsbury
Center is canvassing this and surround
ing territory for the book entitled
"Major-General 0. 0. Towards Life and
Experiences among our Hostile Indians"
Gen. Howard is we'll known Vermonter,
and his story of the many years he spent
among the wild Indians of the west
makes very interesting reading. He is
the last surviving great federal com
mander of the civil war, and in this book
he tells of his boyhood and early home,
his life at West Point, and the breaking
up of his household when the call to
duty came.
Gen. Howard has passed three-score
years and ten. He is known as the
Christian soldier, for he possesses the
religious enthusiasm which marked the
fighting men of the religious wars.
The book is published by the old and
well known firm of A. D. Worthington
& Co., Hartford, Conn. 1t contains $40
interesting pages and is sold only by
agents.

occupied by the sisters, through a private
door, and the surprised girl saw her
whom she had thought to be sleeping, not
only awake, but employed in manner
that banished all probability of present
repOse. The black tresses were loosened.
and fell in profusion over her shoulders
and bosom, inparting a slight degree of
wildness to her countenance; the chilling
white of her complexion was strongly con-
trasted with eyes of the deepest black.
that were fixed in rooted attention on a
picture she held in her hand. Frances
hardly breathed, as she was enabled to see
that it was the figure of a man in the
well-known dress of the Southern horse ::
but she instinctively laid her hand on her
heart to quell its throbbinss. as she
thought she recognized the lineaments.
Frances felt she was improperly pryins
into the sacred privacy of another; but
her emotions were too powerful to permit
her to speak. Isabella was too much
engrossed by her own feelings to discover
the trembling figure of the witness to her
actions. and she pressed the inanimate i'm
age to her lips with enthusiasm.
The fury of the wind whistled round
the angles of the building. and she rose
and moved TO window. Her figure was
now hid from the view of Frances. who
was about to rise and approach her guest.
when tones of thrilling melody chained
her in breathess silence to the spot.
