Old lime Ouackeru.

The eighteenth century was the gold
en- harvest time of the quack, against
whom some of the fiercest shafts of
Hogarths satire were directed. The
quack loved to surround himself with
an atmosphere of mystery, which was
calculated to impose upon the creduli-
ty of his victims. His room was be-
decked with skulls and skeletons. A
brisk trade in quackery was carried
ON by women. j. G. Wright in his
book, 1.-THE Good Old Times" records
the fact that in the year 1889 "a Mrs.
Joanna Stephens was awarded 10000
by the English government for a
proper discovery made by her for the
cure of the stone This proper dis
covery,'" adds Mr.. Wright, consisted
of a powder, a decoction and pills, the
last named being formed from calcined
snails, with carrot seeds, hips and
haws. the compound being burnt to
blackness and then mixed with soap
and honey"

The deer season is over. Commissioner
Thomas has additional help in his office
sending out blanks for returns from the
diffsrent towns of the number killed and
compiling press reports for comparison
with the wardens' reports.
Mr.. Thomas is of the opinion that an
unusually large number of deer have
been killed but ventures no estimate. He
expects that it will be at least a month
before the true figures can be arrived at.
A total of IS, 6S5 hunters licenses were
sent out. $40 being issued in Stowe.
This is the record, considering the popu-
lation, so far reported.
Unofficial estimates by experienced
hunters place the number killed during
the open season at 5000, about twice as
many as in 1908. The season has been
remarkably free from accidents, when
the number of hunters out is considered.
Only one fatality resulted, Fred Harris

Bristol Editor Exchanged Grips

Myron Wilson of the Bristol Herald
made trip up into Lamoille County the
first of the week to interview Senator
Page. Now whether this trip was to give
the Senator some points as to how to pro
coed with his work in Washington the
coming winter, or to get recommends
ton for appointment as Minister Plene-
potentlary to the FIJI Islands or some
other seaport town, deponent sayeth not.
But so elated was "Myron" with his
visit to the Calf Skin Centre that when
he started for home he grabbed up an
other mans grip and went off with it.
Not until the other man, well-to-do
farmer, started an hour later to take his
train was the mistake discovered. Imag-
inc the surprise of this farmer when he
found in the grip few copies of the
Bristol Herald, bottle of hair tonic, a
corkscrew and copy of the fish and
game laws! Then again imagine the look
of surprise that came over the editorial
visage and the ecstatic joy that filled his
heart when he opened up the grip he had
and found therein nice lunch of roast
chicken, some fine apples and the neces-
sary sleeping apparel! "Myron'' rubbed
his eyes and said SPY Gosh! am firm
believer in Aladdin and his wonderful
lamp! Henceforth and forever. the Bris-

Brains For Diet.

There is latent truth in the print,
tive Maori belief that by eating the
brains of his enemies a warrior ac-
quired their skill and cunning.
1t was custom among these saw
ages. whose descendants | have seen
and admired in Hawaii and New Zea-
land. to hold a brain feast after a sue
cessful battle. The conquering chief
always reserved for his own portion
the gray matter of the opposing leader.
Observe how the practice works out in
modern life. We do not actually eat
our rivals brains, but if we are wise
we will try to absorb what those
brains contain. The man who makes a
big success is the man who makes the
best use of his enemies. studies their
moves, learns their method, knows
what thought processes they are apt to
follow. Down here in the street |

Maoris, anyway.-New York Herald.
