CHANCE PoR TIGER HUNrERA.

90 Many Man Eaters h South China
That Natives Want Them Killed.
Never have there been moro deaths
caused by tigers than during the last
six months. In one village alone IN
Hoipu region not far from No Ma,
which can be reached by the steam
ship Marking every two or three days
from Macao, there is a small village
which has lost ten persons on account
OF tigers, while In the same region
some twenty more persons have paid
the penalty Of their lives on account
of these ferocious animals.
Why cannot some Of the Mmrods
of Hongkong inaugurate a great hunt
and thus clear out these monsters
which have become a menace to the
Chinese? Innocent women and laugh
ing children would be forever thank
full to any one who would deliver
them from this curse. which they
dread SO much.
The Chin 7se seem to have no skill
In extermlnatmg or catching these
willy beasts. or perhaps they fear to
molest them, .est the tiger spirits
may injure their persons in the fu-
ture. Be that as 1t may, it is great
shame that not more than one hun
dred to one hundred and twenty miles
from Hongkong, within easy reach,
these wild beasts are permitted to
carry on their depredations. Let
those who delight to shoot the inno-
cent and harmless birds once try a
good sized tiger for target and the
Chinese will rise up and call them
blessed and immortalize their name
and deed in verse.-Hongkong Tele-

vERMONTERS SEEK BODY OF
GEN. IRA ALLEN.
Brother Of Ethan Allen, the Hero OF
Tlconderoga, Known to Have Died
In Great Poverty in the City Of
Philadelphia In 1914.

y
are watching with interest the search
which is being carried on in Philadel-
phia to recover the body of Gen. Ira
Allen, Green Mountain boy, states
man, diplomat and founder of the Uni.
versity of Vermont, says the Boston
Globe.
Gen. Allen, who at one time esti-
mated his real estate in Vermont to
be worth on proper appraisal from
100000 to $1,50O,000.' later lost his
property and died in great poverty in
Philadelphia In 1914, according to the
governor and council of Vermont" Z"
He was buried in a strangers grave
with no headstone to mark the spot.
A few years ago as result of
search Instituted by John H. Converse
Of Philadelphia, former Burlington.
ian and alumnus Of the University Of
Vermont, 1t was determined that he
was buried in the Quaker city in Jan
uary, 1874 This buryiug ground is
1ong-disu.ed and wholly neglected
spot which has within a few weeks
been sold by the few remaining mem
bers Of the society Of Free Quakers,
who propose to remove the stones
and any remains discovered beneath
the surface to rural cemetery.
Accordingly Gov. Bell of Vermont
has appointed a committee of we'll
known sons of Vermont in Philadel-
phia to witness the removal of head
stones, ETC., to find If possible some
evidence of Aliens last resting place.
This committee consists of Francis
Olcott Allen, Col Charles A. Con-
verse, Joseph D. Allen, John H. Con
verse and Ralph L. Hayes. The COM
m.ttee will make diligent search for
possible headstone, coffin plate or
mark Of Identification of any sort.
Gov. Bell has also appointed the
following committee to be able to act
with the above committee in taking
proper steps on the part of the state
in the event that anything definite is
discovered of the Hmains of Gen. Al
len: Col G. G. Benedict of Burling.
ton, president of the Vermont His
torical society, and secretary of the
University Of Vermont; Walter H.
Crockett of st. Adams and Frank E.
Alfred of Newport.
Ira Allen was born in Cornwall,
Conn, May /, 1851, being the young
est of six brothers, of whom Gen.
Ethan Allen was the eldest.
Ethan Aliens deeds are commemo-
rated by at least three statues, one in
the porch of the state capitol at Mont
pelier, one in the hail of fame in
Washington and one surmounting the
tall granite shaft above his grave in
Green Mount cemetery in Burlington,
besides the rugged memorial tower
dedicated last summer with imposing
ceremonies on his old farm near Bur-
lington.
Several members of the Allen fam
fly are buried in the lot where the
hero of Ticonderoga lies, among them
being Mrs. Jerusha Alien, the widow
Of Ira Allen A modest stone marks
her grave and records the death Of
her husband.

When Cows should Dry.

AS to when COWS should be dried
from milking, dairyman giving his
own experience says that this depends
to some extent on the quality and viz:
or of the COW, and that a COW in poo
condition may he aNowed two mon his
in which to recruit her strength, VT h
ADVANTAGE to herself and her pgospec-
tive calf, but this is to some extent
a matter OF keep, for the poor COW
generally belongs ITO the poor feed.
er, and, if The feeding II generous, the
animal healthy, and the quantity Of
milk produced pays, expenses there is
no reason why the period OF rest
should not be further reduced. In
the case of the average COW, the milk
ing can be continued until within a
month Of calying. II COW is in low
condition, 1t is better, in our opinion,
to resort to higho feeding than to dry
off. We have known COWS treated thus
for many years, sometimes being
MIXED to within month Of calving,
that have carried as good an appear
ance, ard produced equally good
calves, as those which run dry nearly
three times as long. Six weeks may
be considered the average period dur

able than stately brocade or satin
which win stand alone. In fact, the
very ilmy, clinsing fabric which
seems practically without body, over
laid with fine SIT, ETY. in which not a
line Of machine weik is shown, is the
correct thing for. present day needs
There is much talk about simple eff
fects in 1908 frocls but the simplicity
is hard to find To be sure, the lines
themselves aee simple enough
Skirts to all intents are plain, often
absolutely devoid Of trimming, but the
blouses and wrars make up for the Sc
verify of the skirts Neither is there
any simplicity to be noted in the trim
mings used which are trimmings upon
trimmings, embroidery upon lace, on
even lace upon lace.
One of the needlework fads which
gives most pleasing effects is that of
! touching up laces with a bit Of deli
cately tinted hand embroidery. An in
expensive imitation cluny or filet lace
can be made charming by embroider-
ing over part of the pattern in color
or doing a stamped pattern upon the
lace.
Hours can be spent i'm simply hand
running tucks, shocking or rose-shir-
ring fire nets, chiffon, marquisette and
similar soft materials for house frocks.
Nothing so certainly stamps frock as
cheap like machine stitchery on soft,
chinging fabric.
Another feature Of up-to-date sewing
is the application of lace medallions,
or the combination of embroidered
medallions with lace insertions.
Done by machine this always has a
factory look, even If made at home
Almost invariably the stitchery will
draw and prevent the perfect adjust
ments Of skirt or bertha or sleeve.
The blouse displayed in our illustra.
ton suggests an excellent use of short
lengths in lace or embroidery. In the
model very soft messalineN in sill
very-gray was used, the tucks below
the shaped yoke being run by hand.
The yoke was made from strips Of
novelty lace, in cluny design, with the
flowers worked over In silver grays
blues and green, Joined by German
val insertion, 1t will be noted that
the insertion employed In the yoke
runs down the upper portions of the
sleeves, very good effect.

every part Of his body was quite raw.
We had to strap him down in bed, Tor
he used to tear himself dreadtully IN
his sleep. The agony he went through
is quite beyond words. NO one thoughGG
we would rear him. The reglmental
doctor. q very clever man, pronounced
the case hopeless; at least, he said the
cnly hope was that he might, if he
lived long enough, outgrow it to some
extent. We had him in hospitals four
times and he was pronounced one OF
the worst cases, if not the worst, eyer
admitted. From each he was dis
charged as incurable; in fact he got
worse under the successive treatments.
AT one hospital they incased him in
plaster, and this seemed to aggravate
the soreness terribly. He looked so
badly that no one liked to go near him
and his life was burden to him. We
kept trying remedy after remedy. but
we had got almost past hoping for g
cure. Six months ago we purchased
a set of Cuticura Soap, Ointment, ana
Resolvent Pills and persevered with
them. The result was truly marvellous
