ACTION IMPROBABLE
Entire State Watching Montpelier in
Regard to Protection of Water Supply.

The presence of the State Board of
Health officers Of the State in this city
the past two or three days has led to a
renewed discussion Of the Berlin Pond
matter which has been given so much
publicity and the health board have had
occasion to visit the source Of the city's
water supply during their stay in town
and to look over conditions there. Watch
man Wedge was in town yesterday after
noon and informed Health Officer
William Lindsay that a couple of men had
been discovered swimming in the reservoir
but that he had been unable to appre-
bend them soon enough to get their names.
| 1t is quite evident that the only way to
, secure the rights of the people who use
this source of supply, is prosecution OF the
offenders and the Board OF Trade has come
forward with a resolution backing the
States Attorney in any action he may
take in behalf of the city, The Importance
of pure water supply has been brought
out with renewed vigor during the past
few days and experts have discussed the
Berlin Pond matter both before the State
school and elsewhere.
1t is understood that Attorney General
j. c. Sargent has a meeting with the
board of health this evening at the State
House and that Mayor Dawley will be
present and talk over the water con-
tamination question with the State Board,
The recent decision of the Supreme Court
backing the State Board of Health in its
action against st. Johnsburyites will
have telling effect upon all similar
encoachments throughout the State and
the greatest desire of the majority of
local people is not only to have bathing
in the pond strictly prohibited but to
have the law enforced for what it is worth.

PAPERS BEING CORRECTED
Examinations for Teachers Certificates
in Process of Correction at State House

The examination papers which the APP
plicants for teachers certificates in this
State took in the Union Districts last week
and which were received at the office of
the Superintendent of Education a few
DAYS ago, have been placed in the hands OF
correcters. The work began yesterday
morning at the State House and will CON
tinue throughout the week.
Superintendent of Education Mason 5.
Stone. when seen yesterday, said that the
work of reading over the papers was in the
hands of competent correcters and that
the work was progressing very favorably'
After the corrections are made the papers
will be given a general average and this
mark will be sent to the individual who
took the particular test. Mr.. Stone hopes
to be able to have all the papers, excepting
the doubtful ones and those requiring his
special judgment decided upon by
next Monday when the percentages will be
given out

EIGHTEEN LICENSES ISSUED
Montpelier Hunters Are Preparing For
the Fall Shooting Season

Eighteen licenses were issued vester-
day by Timothy r. Merrill to Mont
pelier hunters in accordance with a new
law made by the last Legislature which
requires that residents as we'll as non
residents shall provide themselves with
licenses to hunt in this state The law
does not go into effect until the first of
September but at the present rate OF
applications for licenses, nearly two
months before the opening of the deer
season in October large number of
hunters are to be expected in Montpelier
this fall.
The law, which was made at the last
session of the legislature supplemented
former act which provided for the
licensing of non resident hunters by max
ing it also necessary for residents to take
out license. The only exception to this
law is that proprieters of land or tenants
on the same, may shoot game on their
land without the permit NoXious ami
mails may be killed at any time. The
licenses to residents cost but fifty cents
and is merely precautionary measure
to keep non residents, whose fee is fifteen
dollars, from hunting under the guise
of bona fide inhabitants.
The licenses are sent from the city
clerk S office to the Fish and Game
Commission and it usually takes a few
DAYS for that office to send them back
so that it is desirable in more ways than
one for the sportsmen to make out their
application to hunt as soon as possible
and avoid the rush which is sure to come
later. City Sheriff Lewis Pollard when
seen last night said that he expected
that at least 300 licenses would be issued
from this city alone under the new law.
The licenses, which arrived yesterday
are for Antonio Barberi DIR. c. H. Burr,
VIM. A. Daniels, Maurice w. Dewey

"MORRISON'S FAUST"

Since Shakespeare, no writer has made
such powerful Use Of the psychic as did
Goethe in Faust" The fearful and the
uncanny attract with unaccountable
mesmeric interest, and Mephistopheles,
with his insidious ways and glittering
sophistry, is the arch-villain before whom
the bloodest fends bow to the dust. The
very stupendousness of his evil influence
affords the most dramatic of material
for the playwright, for in the end, his
defeat is terrible, in proportion to the
depth to which he falls. No villain ever
fell farther For the same reason, the
escape of Faust and Marguerite from the
Vaccinations Of brain so empowered
with the strength of evil is the more
thrilling. No theme is so universally
enthralling as that which portrays the
saving of the soul from perdition. 1t is a
masterpiece in mental speculation that
will interest the human race as long as it
has breath and understanding. The popu-
larity of "Faust" will last as long as there
is an audience left on earth and actors
enough to fill the cast. Faust" gave
Henry Irving the opportunity for one of his
greatest triumphs while Lewis Morrison
made an artistic success and incidentally
fortune out of the play. The present
version has seen two notable revivals OF
the play, namely, Beerholhm Trees
production at his own theatre, London
England and the sensational revival OF
Morrisons Faust" now before American
audiences.

The golf match between L. b. Brooks
and Lester H. Greene at the Country
Club yesterday afternoon resulted in a
victory for Mr.. Greene, the score being
s up. Mr.. Brooks fresh from the laurels
he recently won from Mr.. Brock, made a
game fight but was unfortunate in the
choice of a coach as the clubs handed him
by W. E. Harlow failed to connect to give
him the proper distance. Greene was
coached by r. j. Fitzgerald and made the
"old uns" green with envy; with his
slashing drives Greene beat Brooks at
every hole except the seventh, each hole
ing the ball in six strokes. The final sore
in strokes was Brooks, 81; Greene, 81.
A supper was served after the match.

KEEPING FALSE HAIR
NATURAL LOOKING

False hair will last longer and look bet
ter if properly cared for. and as the best
quality is not inexpensive and should be
selected it behooves a woman, now that
quantities are worn, to know how TO
make it last.
To begin with. then. cheap quahty Is
the most expensive, for after little wear
it becomes either scrubby looking or SO
harsh that it cannot be used. Cheap
pieces lose color and either streak or
fade quickly.
One of the most important and difficult
details Of caring for chisnons is 10 keep
them free from dust. Like hair growing
on the head. they hold impurities, and
unless cleaned will grow dull looking and
old. In their care a soft brush is an es-
sential and every night when the pieces
are removed, they should be stroked
lightly but thoroughly with bristles in
such way that the dust Is taken out.
This should not be omitted even for one
night, for once the switch puffs be-
come dust laden they are difficult to
clean.
No false hair when not being worn
should be exposed to the light. for sun
and air will absorb its dressing unnec-
essarily. After being worn 1t must never
be put away until il has been we'll
smoothed.
To wash a switch or puffs is practically
impossible. but as cleansing is necessary
at intervals cornmeal should be applied.
The meal must be rubbed gently but
thoroughly through the strands. and then.
fastening the top OF the piece securely. a
long bristied brush must be applied Wig
orously to remove the grains. Before this,
however the long hair must be rubbed
between the hands. SO the meal will alb
sorb the dust.
once in lons while. perhaps every two
months a little oil rubbed the false
piece will keep it in condition and aid i'll
preserving the dressing. For this alycerin
is excellent and the manner of applying
should be carefully followed. Too much. of
the grease will almost ruin. while too lit
tie will not be effective. When using the
