PoWNAL MAN RETURNS
Elmer Bellows Suffered sunstroke at
Schenectady

Elmer Bellows, coffee salesman
for Quinby & Co., of Boston, who has
been absent from his home In Pownal
since July |, returned yesterday.
During this long absence of Mr.
Bellows Mrs. Bellows heard nothing
from him and this fact caused her
much anxiety and had given rise to
much speculation.
Mr.. Bellows, on his retnrn remain
ed but few hours with his family
and left for Boston to resume his
work.
Mrs. Bellows seen at her home this
morning said that Mr.. Bellows had
been i'll as the result OF sunstroke
and had been at the home of her sis
ter, Mrs. Augutus Clark of Schenec-
tady, N. Y.
Mrs. Bellows was in poor health her
self and because of this It was
thought best by her family to keep
her in ignorance of Mr.. Bellows
whereabouts and condition, as it
would have been impossible for her
to have left her children to join him.
The family will remain in Pownal
during the winter
They had been preparing to move
and had part of their goods packed.
Mr. Bellows was formerly a part
ner of the firm OF Stevens Dempsey &
Bellows, who owned a grocery store
in North Adams.

ENCOURAGE LOOSE BANKING
Result Of Bryan's Guarantee Fund
Plan

Hot Springs, Va, Aug. EST puts
a premium on reckless banking and is
an inducement to reckless banking"
Thus did Mr.. Taft in response to a dir
ect question, state what is, in his opln-
ion, the vital objection to. the propos-
ed plan to guaranty deposits in nation
lal banks.
That is the fundamental objec-
ton, he said.
Relieved of the responsibility to
and the fear of their depositors, the
tendency would be to induce exploit
alton, manipulation, and the use of
assets OF banks in speculative way.
1t would promote speculation at the
expense OF their fellow bankers and
that ultimately means at the expense
of the depositors Any proposition
as to the amount of the tax that
should be assessed as based on the
present rate of loss, is on an errone-
GUS basis, as the danger of loss of de-
posts is increased vastly by the pro.
posed system, so that the percentage
of the tax would have to be vastly
increased.
MIR. Bryan did favor guaranty.
the government to raise the funds by
taxing the banks, but the Democratic
platform provides for an enforced in
Isurance, which compels all national
banks to contribute to the insurance
funds to meet the defaults of the spec
lulators. | am told that such a law
was in force in New York, and that
the result was that when panic came
the tax having been improperly cal
culated there were not sufficient
funds to pay the loss, but this have
only on the authority of a well known
writer on the subject"
There was some discussion here to-
day Of the position alleged to have
been taken by Senator Hopkins Of
illinois, that the policies of a presi-
dental candidate, so far as they are
not contained in the party platform,
are not binding on the party. Judge
Taft declined TO make the matter
controversial one. il may be said,
however, that attention was called to
the fact that the rate bill that was
recommended to Congress by Mr..
Roosevelt was not specifically approx
ed by the Republican platform of 1904.
but that it was adopted by Repub-
lican Congress on his recommends
ton

A Watch Tin.

$50 you lost your watch in the crush
on the Atlantic City boardwalk, sh?"
the detective sneered. Well, I'm
ashamed of you. You ought to know,
after your long friendship with me,
that there's only one safe way for a
man to carry costly watch-in the
right-hand vest pocket, with the chain
running into the right and left pocket
both. The thief always snatches al
the left pocket, and. of course, by my
system, he gets only key or cheap
compass"

county's first big republican rally in
this campaign was held here yester-
day afternoon, the speakers being Sen

The auditorium was crowded and the
addresses were delivered with eXcep-

said that Bryan never advanced an
issue that was not afterwards repudi-

his own party or himself.
In reply to Bryan's cry that the peo

Man Ar. More Romantic.

Men are said to be more romantic
than women, as what woman ever
cares to read poetry aloud? And how
many poor women have spent hours
Of martyrdom listening to some man
pour forth his soul in some one else's
verse. The majority OF sweethearts
find It easy enough, but to wives It Is
generally nothing else than bore
which should not be the case; at least,
the wife should not allow the hubsanu
to find 1t out, and should regard ne'
own lack Of interest as fault

may be surmised that IL an animal
receives nothing but corn 1t would
not eat enough protein to meet the
needs OF the body: and this surmise
would be correct. since the amount
OF protein in corn is very small
Prairie hay also has little protein. 80
that the use OF this kind of hay with
corn for horses or mules at work
would make them grow poor. since
the desired amount OF protein Ia lack

for dairy cows. The work horses or
mules would need the protein to
build up their muscles. the dairy cow
would need II to help her secrete
