Street Railway from Fair Haven

1t is said that street railway service
between Fair Haven and New York state
may become an accomplished fact before
1910. The plans are for a $1,000, 600
corporation, backed by Vermont and
New York financiers, the work TO begin
about June if possible, and the line to
be completed in about five months.
Franchises already have been granted by
the towns of Poultney and Fair Haven,
and it is believed others are assured at
Wells, Pawlet. and Middletown, and at
Granville. n. Y. The work of survey
ing for the line will be started, it is I'M
derstood, in about two weeks, and if the
company obtains the right of way at
certain points the success of the under
taking appears to be certain.
A temporary organization has been
effected, the president of the company
being President Heinz of the Coney Is
land Street Railway Co. Other men
interested in this project are William
Nathaniel OF Poultney, A. Mulholland of
New York, and A. Y. Gray of Middle
town.

of Winterqreen Compound.

OF Wintergreen Compound.
For many years eczema was supposed
to be blood disease and was enormously
treated as such, but now the best author
tiles agree that eczema is only skin dis
ease and must be cured through the skin.
The eminent skin specialist, DR.. d. d.
Dennis, first discovered the eczema germ
and his discovery was quickly taken up
in both Germany and France.
To kill the eczema germ and at the
same time heal the skin, DIR. Dennis
compounded oil of wintergreen, thymol,
glycerine, etc. The remedy is a liquid,
not mere salve. hence it sinks right
into the pores of the skin. Washing
with this oil of wintergreen compound
seems to take the itch away at once; soon
the scales drop away and the disease dis

The first requirement is space and plenty of it.

machine, and wide margin. For the rest plane
some boards, sacloth nails, hammer wire
and some steel will fill the bill. Then comes the
motor, of course, which in the main is the whole
thing The construction of the main body of the
aeroplane certainly simple enough for any ordinary
carpenter put together; but just present every
thing connected with aeroplane building ranked as
high art-and the price is correspondngly steep
Putting the in the car is delicate operation
and requires much skill
The present quoted price of an aeroplane ranges
in the neighborhood of $4,000, and about half of
this is applied the motor. This price though
excessive, is justified in a certain measure by the
novelty and above all by the small number of orders
received. One must live, forsooth, and pay rent
for the required; and can not live on fame
alone in fairy ship building.
But the price will drop, say the sanguine and
the simplicity of construction seems to assure it;
