1t might be added in connection with
what was said about the Saco River re-
naming open through December, that

Yesterday morning we found pail of
water in an adjoining room frozen from
top to bottom, and so loose as to allow
the water to run freely out of it. The
same thing happened several years ago,
when we asked for an explanation, but
didn't get it. Where are our modern
scientists who know it all?
A recent letter from Darius 0. Davis
of Minnesota informs US that they have
hardly any snow there, and but few
nights so cold as to freeze water in the
open air. He said nothing about coming
back to Maine, and the inference is that
in view of his old age he has concluded
to remain out there with his daughter.
Another letter from our cousin, Mrs.
Harriet B. Maxim, gave US large
amount of information, including the
personal appearance of her grandfather,
Seth Sturtevant, which we intend to use
in the near future.
Last Saturday two of D. R. Coles

Dickens and Thackeray

In Mr.. Layard's book, "A Great
Punch Editor" is given Shirley
Brooks remembrance of Thackeray
"What delightful English he wrote!
He knew this and was proud and said
that Dickens might be great moral
list, but that he was the best gramma-
rian." Now, the curious thing, OBJ
serves the London Chronicle, is that
Thackeray was a very shaky gramma-
rian and that the pages Of "Penden-
mis-" abound in weak collocations and
constructions, whereas the self edu-
Gated Dickens was an almost infallible
grammarian. Not In his work shall
we find the unrelated and irresponsible
"and which" or the split infinitive or
anything Of the kind. The vulgarism
If "aggravate" for "irritate." very CON-
mon with him. but by no means pc.
culiar to him. was nearly his only
verbal crime.

He writes: "In cases where the cura

more palatable and efficacious than othel

from my own experience and from {
knowledge of the nature of Vinol, thai
it Is worthy cod liver preparation II

Such testimony furnishes further evi
dence to the people Of South Paris that
our delicious cod liver preparation
Vinol, does all we claim for It.
As body builder and strength creator
for old people, delicate children, weak,
rundown persons, after sickness, and
for chronic coughs, colds, bronchitis,
and all throat and lung troubles, Vinol
Is unexcelled. This is because Vinol il
made by scientific, extractive and con.

ers, combining with peptonate of iron all
the medicinal, healing, bodybuilding
elements of'cod liver oil, but no oil.
We ask the people Of South Paris to
try Vinol on our offer to return their
money II 1t fails to give satisfaction. F.

Harry Thaw's lawyers are doing their
best, regardless of future consequences,
to prove that the young man was insane
when he shot Stanford White, and had
been for years previous to that. There is
much speculation as to what the effect
will be of acquittal on the ground of iu-
sanity. Will it be immediate commit
ment to the asylum for the criminal in
sane? Well, the last noted case in which
there was an aequittal on the ground OF
insanity (which was in Washington, re-
