FLOWER OF THE TEA PLANT
Said to Be Superior 70 the Leaves In
Flavor and Hard to Adult
terate.

II seems that the flower of the tea
plant is much to be preferred to the
leaf, says the Scientific American.
The infusion of the flower is very
sweet and has the same stimulating
qualities as the infusion of the leaves.
Moreover, the flower contains only
about two per cent. caffein, while the
leaf contains as much as four per
cent.
Tea leaves must be picked one by
one; the flowers. on the contrary. are
collected much more simply. The
principal quality of the flower is the
difficulty of initiating it.
limitations of leaves are innumer.
able. Most astonishing authorizations
of tea leaves are practiced in China
The oak, the eglantine, the ash. the
strawberry. the laurel, the cherry, the
chestnut, the olive, the elm, the APP
pie and the plum-in fact, almost ev-
cry tree that grows-offers its leaves
freely to INSCRIPTIONS dealers for
mixture. Even ordinary wood saw
dust, properly colored. has been en-
ployed.
Fancy teas are adulterated with
clay and other mineral substances,
The tea flower is more or less proof
against imitation.

ARTHUR J. MATrIsoN's FUNERAL
Held from Home Of Mrs. Catherine
Madison Monday Afternoon

The funeral services OF Arthur J..
Mattison were held from the home of
his mother, Mrs. Catherine Mattison
on Upper Main street, North Benning-
ton Monday afternoon, October IL, at
3 o'clock; Re. A. S. Davis of Benning-
ton and Rev. l.. A. Cooney pastor of
the Baptist church officiating. Many
beautiful floral tributes testified to
the love and esteem in which the de-
ceased was held. The interment was
in the Hill cemetery, where the Ma
sonic burial services were rendered
by Tucker lodge, No. As, F. and A. NJ.
of which Mr.. Mattison was a member.
A large number of Masonic brothers
were in attendance, among them sew
eral from Bennington, to pay the last
tribte of respect to their departed

of the lodge.
Mr.. Mattison was the only son of
the late Gilbert S. Mattison and was
81 years of age. He Is survived by
his mother, Mrs. Catherine Mattison,
and two sisters, Mrs. d. ID. Tomphns
of Bennington and Mrs Valdia Tom

of Tucker chapter, No. 3S, o. r. s. al
so of the North Bennington Alumni
association and as long as health per
mitted was an active and interested
member He had not been well for
several years but his death came very
suddenly at the last, after a three
days illness, and was a great shock
to his friends. Although naturally
of a retiring disposition, and confin-
ed much TO his home, Arthur had
many warm friends who knew the
value of his love, and appreciated the
great patience he has ever shown,
through these many years of suffer
ing, which he has endured without
complaint He will be greatly missed
in his home and by the friends who
were accustomed to see him there.
AS he was faithful to his convic-
lions of right, as he was obedient to
the demands of honor and justice I'm
his station as he loved kindred end
friends. and in affiiction evenced
trustful faith; and as he lived in the
spirit of charity and the love OF truth,
so shall be his reward.

Vegetable Compound has done for me
during this trying period. Complete
restoration to health means so much
to me that for the sake of other suffer
ing women | am willing to make my
trouble public so you may publish
this letter. Mrs. CHAs. BARCLAY,
RID. Graniteville, Vt.
No other medicine for woman's ills
has received such widespread and I'M
qualified endorsement. No other med
icine we know of has such a record
of cures of female ills as has Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
For more than 30 years it has been
curing female complaints such as
Inflammation, liberation, local weak
nesses, fibroid tumors, Irregularities,
periodic pains, backache, indigestion
and nervous prostration, and it is
unequalled for carrying women safely
through the period of change of life.
1t costs but little to try Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and,
as Mrs. Barclay it is worth noun
tains of gold " to suffering women.

Plunging into Yale's line in the old

Yale cordially hated him. Lake played
In the famous game of 1890 which the

governor of Connecticut during the

In an article in the June number
of Recreation, which is a defense
of college athletics, the Yale man
cites the record of Lake to prove
that, instead of being a hindrance,
athletics in college is in reality an
element of a well-rounded education.
Incidentally, the article in question
has revived the old debate as to
whether college athletics is or is not

been commended by many former
athletes who are now prominent in

criticised by President Butler of CO.
