pissipated Her Fears.

A prominent advocate of female
sufr-age went on one occasion to
visit the wife of a well to do trades
man, and the hostess before going
into the parlor to meet her visitor
fairly trembled.
Goodness" said she to herself.
"What can talk to Miss Fitz7Janes
about? She belongs to many clubs,
reads and studies so many Ian
guages, writes such deep papers and
all that! What on earth can ! say
to entertain her: l know ] shall
appear unusually ignorant and fool
isb before her"
The good dame nerved herself,
however, and went in to greet the
terrible visitor. After shakinr
hands the formidable Miss Fitz-
Jones nestled up TO her on the sofa
and said in an almost mysterious
whisper:
F.Dear Mrs. Brown, tell me, do
you know any really satisfactory
way of cooking turnips ?"-London

A NOTABLE YEAR.

The year 1909 will go down as one
of the most notable in history in its
achievements. The year is still far
from its expiration, yet it is already
recorded that in this year the wireless
on a sinking ship first summoned aid
from ships below the horizon; that
the four days transatlantic boat
first became fact; that Lieutenar
Shackelton carried the British flag to
within Ill miles of the South Pole,
or $40 miles farther than any prede-
cessor; that Cook and Peary announc-
ed to the world their discoveries Of
the North Pole, and that made prac-
teal conquest of the air, demonstrate
ing that aerial navigation is no longer
the dream of enthusiasts, but an ac-
complished fact.
But infrequently in human history
has single year been marked with
such splendid progress. Truly these
are wonderful days in which we are
now living.

Henry R. slaven, of Monterey,

The paper that reaches the people
Is the paper that brings business to
It's advertisers, and the whole town
shares indirectly in the drawing
powers of widely circulated news
paper.
There Is enc best paper in nearly
every town. Several papers may be
published there. but one viii lead.
1t IS the paper that leads that counts.
.;udiciously handled it IS power for
good for a community
The fate of every community is
more or less inevitably bound up in
its leading newspaper. If the latter
is philosophical, persistent boomer
and intelligent director of public
opinion, twill make the town 60 in
spite of its eyer-present mossback
contingent.
The opportunities of some towns
are greater than those of Others, but
within their possibilities there is no
agency tnat accompfishes more for
their Advancement than an active and
earnest newspaper.
The capacity of the local paper for
accomplishing these desirable results
, is in a very large measure dependent
upon the support accorded it by the
community and especially by the
business interests.
But advertisers should rid them
selves of the notion that this support
is in any degree work of charity.
1t is square business proposition.
The business man who appreciates
the business side of the question is
the one who wins.
The live newspaper always gives
the live advertiser value received.

EDITORS AND RELIGION.

Can we determine the religious in
clinations of an editor from reading
his newspaper: No, this can not be
done, speaking broadly. No other
body of intelligent workers so fully
represents kindness and liberation in
religion as editors do. Be you a
Catholic, the Protestant editor places
his fairest wreath on your tomb when
you die. He writes with overAowing
heart at your departure. Ifyou jest
at Christianity the cultured editor
will not print your assaults, for our
editors, whatever may be their per-
sonal disposition, look upon belief in
a future world as sacred and above
humor and quip. In religion as in
politics We turn to our editors for in
SEPARATION and guidance, as a sailor of
the seas is governed by the light
house.

FLOATING KIDNEY.

Of Imaginary Ones.
One Of the bugaboos of the popu-
lar Imagination which have caused
much unnecessary suffering is what
is known as a floating kidney.r
The word "bugaboo" is used DELHI
erately, because for one case Of
genuine floating kidney there are
scores that are simply the figment
of a nervous imagination. In fact.
there is no physical disorder that
can be so easily imagined into exist
-ence. In the case of confirmed.
nervous patient who has run the
gamut of all the ills to which
nerves" are heir. # the name Of
. floating kidney is mentioned, the
symptoms viii promptly put in their
appearance.
There are, of course, some genu
inc cases which nav give rise tc
much physical discomfort and even
pain. The normal kidney is helt
in its place BY the outside shell o.
fat which covers it. although all
kidneys are more or less movable.
When a well nourished individual
suddenly loses great deal OF flesh
the condition of floating kidney mar
very well be the result, because this
shell of fat is reduced, and the or,
gan loses its natural support.
The condition Will be more no.
ticeable in people who wear corset.
or very tight clothing round the
waist or in those whose abdominal
muscles for any reason have becom,
relaxed. It is quite possible for
this condition to exist without any
symptoms at all, especially if the
patient has been kept in ignorance
oft.
The symptoms when they do APP
pear consist of pain in the side.
dyspepsia and extreme nervousness
In most genuine cases of this
trouble the loose kidney will be only
part Of a general abdominal relaxa-
tion and displacement, and any eff
fort ut cure must therefore in.
clude all the other ORGANS involved
with it.
Sometimes case of floating kid
ney viii cause paroxysms of severe
pain, with nausea, vomiting, chills
and fever and general collapse.
These cases. happily. are not fire.
quent and are thought to be due to
the kidney being SO loose as to be
able to twist round its own ureter-
that is to say. the tube which leads
from it to the bladder. In these
extreme cases an operation may be
necessary in order to anchor" it.
Occasionally a kidney may be dis
located by heavy lifting or strain
Ing.
The treatment of most patients
is that which brings the general
nutrition up to par. The gaining
of a few pounds of flesh Will often
work wonders and will sometimes
be greatly assisted BY the tempo
rary use of a properly fitted support
and the allaying of nervous fears

CAMEL'S HUMP CLUB. PLANS.

The Cancels Hump club had meeting
at the office of L. c. Moody in Waterbury,
last evening to perfect plans to ascend the
mountain the first of next week. This
club is composed of 20 membes They
will take with them large tent and camp
equipment which will be left on the noun
tain for the use of tourists. Robert Pamer
is to be in charge of the camp. Nearly
100 people in charge have already visited
the Hump this year.
Only fourteen boat loads of lumber
have arrived at the port of Burlington,
this season from Canada, half as many
as had come in at this time last season.
Many more cargoes are expected soon,
although the business will not be as large
as last season. The tariff law, now pending
in the two houses at Washington, is re-
sponsible for small import.

KURN HATTIN HOME CHANGES.

The trustees of the New England Kurn
Hattin Homes announce that the new
building at Westminster, is completed
and that the dedication will take place
in September. The policy of the board
of trustees has been changed somewhat
during the past year. After careful con-
sideration and study of this particular
work, considering the relative location
of the two Homes under their manage
ment--the kurn Hattin Home at West
minister and Warner Memorial Home at
SaXtons River-it has been decided to
place the administration of affairs with
the executive board, thus doing away
with the office of superintendent, the
people in charge of each home being
known as the manager and matron. Mr.
and Mrs. \. W. Packard We're engaged
for one year to fill the vacancy caused
by the resignation of Mr.. and Mrs. Bishop.
They have taken a position in the LYMAN
school, Westboro, Mass. and Mr.. and Mrs.
McGinniss, who have been employed
at North Chelmsford, Mass, have been
engaged to fill the vacancy. Mr. McGinniss
is graduate of the military academy at
Bordentown, n. j. and is a University
of Vermont man. He will assume the
duties of teacher in the school and stand
for all the educational work with the boyt.
The farm will continue under the direction
of the farm manager, j. ID. Judd, who
with his wife, has been connected with
Kurn Hattin six years. Mrs. McGinniss
is the daughter of eX-Mayor of Everett,
Mass.
