Spring Fashion Notes.

''The waist line will come this
spring just where it belongs" we are
assured by Grace Margaret Gould in
the Woman's Home Companion for
March. 1.-THE defining of the normal
waistline is now feature of the new
fashions. About the only exception
to this is in the Russian blouse coats,
where oftentimes the loose belt hangs
we'll below the waist. The dresses in
Moven Age effect will still appeal to
the popular trade, but they are no
longer high style. Among the good
looking dresses showing the Moyen
Age effect are those made of com
bination of heavy and sheer linen
the bodice portion of the heavy
linen and the lower plated skirt por-
ton of sheer linen. In these dresses
which are made with guimpe the
sleeves and guimpe are of the same
sheer linen as the plated skirt.
"Sashes will be much worn, not
only around the normal waist, but as
a skirt trimming defining f1ounce,
for instance, and tying at the back
just above the knees.
"The sleeves which were in our new
gowns last spring, will only be pre-
sentable this year after remodeling.
Sleeves are growing shorter and the
tendencies are toward the banishing
of the long sleeve for warm weather.
For general everyday wear, many
modified bishop sleeves will be worn,
these, of course. in the long length.
| But the majority of the new sleeves
end just below the elbow where they
are finished with a fascinating little
undersleeve, frequently in the form
of very small. filmy puff. Sleeves
with cap effect are smart in style
and they vary greatly in length, some
are not more than two inches long
and others reach half way down the
arm. The little white undersleeve il
a most noticeable feature of the
new sleeves. Sometimes it protrudeE
only for a couple of inches below the
upper colored sleeve, both of whict
are finished with nothing more elab
crate than half inch hem or little
bias self facing. The majority of tht
sleeves are extremely plain and in
conspicuous.
Perhaps that is the reason VIII!
the new bracelets, many of them II
antique design, are so very elaborate
making strong contrast to the plaii
sleeves.

secured good sized collection, and
in one instance complete pair found
at the foot of the same tree. This is
a rare occurrence, for in nearly every
instance the antlers are shed one at
time and the second may be left miles
from the spot where the first was
found.
When the state fish and game COM
missioner at the close of the open
season last October announced that
nearly 5000 deer had been killed in
Vermont during single week many
people expressed the opinion that the
animals had been nearly if not quite,
exterminatei. Conditions that pre-
vail in southern Vermont and in the
northern section of Berkshire county
in Massachusetts do not, however,
confirm it.

such parties as might desire it, as he
saw therein an opportunity for max
ing good profit and today he made
known that the buyers were the firm
of Skinner, French and Company,
lumber firm of wide reputation, but
whether the tract is to be utilized for
the lumber business Mr.. Kelley could
not say. This firm has a branch of
business in Orleans, VT, and another
in Skinner, Me-, town that is practi-
cally owned by the firm, and from it
derives it's name. At the latter place
the concern manufactures large
quantities of lumber for the building
trade and it has headquarters in
Boston.
This section of the city is devoted
largely to the coal and lumber trade
and IT the firm establishes another
branch. it will be large accession
to the lumber trade of Pawtucket
and vicinity. There is rumor current
that possibly the purchase of the
estate may be in the interests of the
Grand Trunk railroad, charter for

become certainty.
While the seller of the property is
not aware of the uses to which the
property is To be put, his natural
inference is that there is to be a
branch Of the lumber business estab-
| lished.
However, as the concern is also an
owner and buver LARGELY of pronertv
that is not utilized for it's special
branch of business there is a posi-
billy that it may be applied to some
use not as yet made public.
Mr.. Kelley's connection with the
purchase and sale of the estate was
merely in the line of his business as q
real estate broker, his interest did
not extend beyond the transaction
which concerned him alone. therefore
speculation is rife as to what the late
purchase signifies and will not be
made known probably. until the new
owners shall give the information.

Aged Woman Dies Under Ice.

Leaving a note in which she CO m
blamed that she was tired of living,
Mrs. Sarah Gray of East Hardwick,
aged ~ years, committed suicide by
drowning February 81. Her body was
found in the Lamoille river short
distance below the Robie mill dam.
Mrs. Tray was employed at the home
of DR.. and Mrs S. E. Darling in
Hardwick, and, as, she was in the
habit of retiring early. Mrs. Darling
thought last evening that she was in
her room. E. A. White, who rooms
there, noticed that her door was open
when ne went to bed. but supposed
she had gone to Craftsbury. as she
had contemplated doing earlier in
the day. When the doctor found. the
next morning that no breakfast had
been prepared he instituted search.
Tracks were discovered in the snow
] leading from Wolcott street to a hole
in the ice sof the river, beside which
lay Mrs. Grav's hat. The body was
| found in shallow water short dis
! lance below, where it had become
wedged between the thin ice and the
| river bottom. Mrs. Gray is survived
by son, Willard Gray of Johnson,
and a granddaughter, Miss Bertha

Many Deer Near Pownal.
| In the low range of mountains eros
sing the southern half of Pownal and
extending into the state of Massachu
sets is gathered at the present time
what is believed to be the largest
herd of wild deer in New England
outside of the big wilderness in nor
thern Maine.
An accurate estimate of the number
of the animals passing the winter In
the locality is, of course. impossible,
but County Game Warden Harry
Chase of Bennington, who has beer
instructed by Fish and Game Commits
sioner H. G. Thomas to keep watch
over the herd while the snow remains
on the ground, is positive that there
are more than hundred.
The bucks have Eshed their horns
and there is no Way In which the two
sexes may be distinguished. A little
daughter of William Estes, who lives
near the Broad brook reservoir which
supplies the city of North Adams
with water, has amused herself by
tramping through the woods and col
lecting the antlers which the bucks
have rubbed off from their heads

Passengers waiting for the early

There was a moving freight train
in the yard and, while the tempera-

was called To Two hot,headed brake
men. who were on top of a freight
ear.
The two men had gotten into words
with each other and the words led to
blows. They INDUCED il n hand to
hand conflict in their perilous posi-
ton and finally clinehed.
In wrestling about the roof of the
ear the men lost their equilibrium
and We're plunged to the ground be-
low. In some miraculous manner
they escaped being crushed on the
frozen ground by the force of the fall
and rolled away from the moving
wheels of the car. They were not
badly injured. The names of the
