BY The Argus is Keen From the
Beginning.

Responses already received in The
Argus contest in which prizes aggre-
eating $25 will be given for the best
essay on financing the ordinary domes-
tic establishment on SIS per week in
dictate that much interest is being
taken in it. Particularly are the house
wives who have devoted years TO
wrestling with this problem in its var
ious phases, ready to tell how they
would spend the money and the view
points they present and their methods
of making ends meet are both inter
esting and instructive.
The contest, which closes Friday
evening, Dec. IL. is for prizes of SIS
and $40 which will be given for
the two best essays in the order of
merit, as decided by competent judges,
on the topic heretofore outlined. The
essays should not be over 200 words

Following are two of the replies so
far received:

Rock Island, H., Dec. 2, 1908.

"Paid in Full" Department, The
Argus: earnestly believe that
any couple can live on $500 a
week, enjoying the comforts of life and
some Iuxuries. If this were impossible,
about three-fourths of the families in
the world would be unhappy and in
misery. There is no reason why an in
teIigent woman cannot manage her
household and live comfortably on
$1,000 per week, if she is economical.
We will approximate the salary at
a Iad.

Illinois Friday night, Dec. 4. The play
promises to be a little more than is
usually understood by the term bur-
lesque. The fact is that of late years
the term has been misquoted. Skits
and vaudevilles have been offered I'M
der a title which in past years was to
be a brilliant satire on some popular
story, set to music and replete with
wit and humorous situations. The
management of the Boston Bellies has
returned to this quality and offers a
burlesque.

Praise for St. JOhnSbury Musician.

Ioungs orchestra played recently at
the closing concert of the choral union
OF the Three Villages given at the Has
kell opera house, Derby Line. The
Stanstead Journal says of their work
" Mr.. Young's solo work on the violin
was of high order and the cello play
ing of Mrs. Young was to the most of
her audience a delightful feature of the
evening. She has reached the standard
in her study of this instrument that
enables her to interpret the author of
the number in a masterful way. This
was her strong quality, and Of course
this carries with it the ability to obtain
good tone quality and delicate ex.
eecutlon. Her personality contributed
bountitully to the soulfulness of her
work"
