For two years Mrs. Harris had lived

The Proctor Trust Co. for the last
six months of 1907 has declared a
semi.annual dividend of per cent to

positors.
Over 600 people have placed over

the books of the Granite Mutual Fire

year ago
twenty-five marriage licenses were
issued by the Bethel town clerk in
1907 against Il in 1906. The favorite
month for marriages was December
in which five licenses were issued.
Five of the br1degrooms and four or
the brides were from other states.
Fifteen of the couples settled in town.
All the marriages were religious
ceremonies and sixteen of them were
performed by ministers in town.
There were eight deaths in town dur.
ing the month of December. This
Is probably the largest number on
record for a single month. All were
adults, there were no contagious dis.
traceable to weather conditions. Two
of the deaths were of transients, both
from Barre.
Probably $4,000 will not any more
than cover the expenditure for new
buildings in Brattleboro the past year.
This is not large sum as compared
with the expenditure In some years,
but it represents residences principal.
ly, no business building having been
built wholly within the year, and, con-
sidered in that light, 1t represents a
development of the right sort. The
great demand in Brattleboro at the
present time Is for new dwelling
houses and the town cannot expand
in business way to any great extent
until more houses are provided. The
American building, which occupies the
site of the old American house. prom
inent hotel in the old stage days, was
completed about the middle of the
year, but 1t was well under way at the
close of last year, and large part of
the 100000 or more which the build
ing cost should be credited to last
years expenditure. 1t is Of hand
some type of architecture and Is the
most conspicuous building in Brattle-
boro. l.. F. Adams, who devotes a
large part of his time to his business
interests in Springfield, Mass, and
Charles R. Crosby are the owners Of
the building, and 80 carefully did they
plan and so fully did they meet the
requirements and conveniences Of
present day business quarters that
they had no difficulty in Immediately
filling the three large stores, forty
Offices, and other large quarters for
manufacturing storage, and other
purposes. For the purposes for which
it was designed it is said to be sec
ond to no building in Vermont, so far
as its completeness and general util-
ity are concerned.

Mr.. Bowser had made a poor show
Of hanging on TO himself during the
dinner hour. 1t had been apparent to
Mrs. Bowser from the first that he had
something to communicate, but he
wanted to be questioned about 1t. She
had asked for no information, and
when the sitting room had been reach
ed he could stand it no longer. He
fused around for few minutes and
then finally said:
Mrs. Bowser, of course women don't
pay much attention to those things,
but / presume you have read or heard
Of the strawberry"

piled.
