of American Beauty roses. The an

growing Wild the problem becomes one
of reason"

A Strange Survival

The Vermont legislature has actually
been struggling to relieve the state con-
stituton of the ancient safeguard which
prevents the consideration of amendment
oftener than once in 10 years. Here is an
interesting instance of the old-time jeal-
ousv of the organic law The difficulty
of amending constitutions is well illus
trated in the long time it is taking to get
the selection of United States senators TO
the people when there is no question
that the people wish this change. Turn
ing to the state constitution, those of
the older states are all well sheltered
against impulsve action, but the Yer
mont "time lock - device is unique.
What state would originate such guard
today? Probably none even among the
conservative eastern commonwealths.
The assumption that only at 10-year
periods are the people wise enough even
to consider constitutional changes is a
queer survival of a fear of public opinion
which paid slight heed to logic.-Green-
field Record.

Will Be A Great Mistake

The proposed central normal school
is to be put up at aucti on-the town or

will cough up that amount. Small towns,
no matter how well fitted in other direct
ions, need not apply. This is democratic
government for YOU" - Morrisville News

"Who knows but Hon. C. II. Stearn
and his JohnsOnian neighbors will say to
Governor Mead, we have the forty thou

Has it occurred to the esteemed con-
temporaries that the proposal normal
schools location is already settled and
announcement will come as early as APP
preparation after the bill is signed by the
governor-providingi it reaches him? A
large town may cough up" once to get
the school, but after that the state will
be coughing up" most of the time, If
the present stupendous program is car
ried out. 1t will be a great mistake, as
The News views it, to invest in central
normal school just now.-Northfield

Don't Cook EGGS.

Eggs should never be cooked" says
a culinary expert. That sounds odd,
but it is true. They should simply be
CONCEALED with slow heat. Every
where l hear complaints about souffles
and omelets. They fall or they never
rise. But all that trouble could be
avoided if the cooks only understood
the relation of heat to eggs. The tenn
perature should always be below the
boiling point when eggs come in con-
tact with the water. Then the heat
will gradually penetrate the egg. The
result will be creamy mass instead
of a hard and tough lump. That is the
main principle in regard to eggs, and
if that is followed cooks will not be be-
wailing about their fat omelets. Dos.

which was made when Mr.. Laraway
was i'll at the Mary Fletcher hospital in

will and several physicians andta nurse

Laraway was in his right mind when it
was made. 1t seems that Mr.. Laraway
