Fined for Intoxication.

The Demon Rum, or its substitute
in patent medicines or essences, was
responsible for the rush of business
in Justice Worcester's court Mon
day. Three of the weary laden who
sought through the medium of the
ACKNOWLEDGMENT agencies to
tighten their burdens, found their
way into the tribunal where. the
tightening business was found to
work with the reverse English. Ac-
eordingly as the contents of pocket
books were let down their sadness
was bound to get a better hold and
William Bowen, Octave Lachance
and Alcide Gauthier are decidedly
of the opinion that the way of the
transgressor is hard.
States Attorney Simonds and
Sheriff-elect Worthen were called to
Walden Monday to call Oscar Kit
tredge to account for his conduct
during the past two weeks. It was
found that $12.04 would just about
appease justice and this amount was
accordingly levied and collected to
pay for the protracted spree.

Discourage Sunday Funerals.

We the undersigned, ministers in ST.
Johnsbury, submit this statement with
reference to Sunday funerals. Sunday is,
with its regular engagements, most ex-
acting day for.the minister. 1t is impos-
sible to crowd in other appointments
without overtaxing his strength and
diminishing the effectiveness of his work
We therefore respectfully request that,
except in cases OF unusual and extreme
necessity. no funerals be appointed for
Sunday.

Substitutes for Salt.

Few people know that there is such
a thing as a substitute for salt. II
there is any one thing more impor-
tant than anything else in the provis-
ion sack of the camper, it is salt. If
his knowledge Of the country includes
. good idea of where the salt
ticks may be found. we'll and good
but woe to him who ventures forth
and finds his salt giving out Nothing
can take the place of it; but your
woodsman of experience finds a fair
substitute in the ashes of growths
rich in nitre, such as tobacco, Indian
corn, sunfiower and hickory bark
Strange to say, the next best sub
stitute for salt among the regular
forms of seasoning is sugar 1t is
used in cold regions a great deal and
is said to be pleasing to the palate
when one becomes accustomed to it,
Maple syrup is used in places where
it can be had. and wild honey also
when boiled and SKINNED is excellent
for the purpose.-Leslie's Weekly.

a show company. The public is cordially
invited to be at the depot and await the
arrival of this beautiful rolling stock
equipage.
The show uses all water and sun proof
tents, these pavillions are all new and
of the latest ornate build. A particular
ly pleasing innovation with this show, is
the introduction of the new illuminating
system. The big tents and the surround
ing exhibition grounds are brilliantly
lighted with Electro-Calcium gener-
ators, which afford the finest light ever
used for a similar purpose: it can be
truthfully said, that night is turned into
day

finest equipped in America. Two COM
ple;e performances are given daily.

BOTH PLEAD GUILTY.
Fay and Harris Each Receive Stiff Sen
fences for Richmond POSioffice Robbery.

Confronted with a certainty of con-
viction, Edward Fay and Richard Har-
ris, when arraigned before Judge Ed
mund Waddill ia the Federal court at
Richmond last Thursday, pleaded guilty
to having robbed the Capital City post
Office recently Of $50, 900, and in ten
minutes thereafter had been sentenced
to serve ten years in the Atlanta peni-
Tertiary and to pay fine of Sc, 600
each.
Both prisoners took their sentences
calmly and without demonstration what
ever, each appearing relieved after re-
ceiving the verdict The Indictment
against them bore five counts, but the
sentence was pronounced in cons;dera-
ton Of but two, those of breaking and
entering the building, and purloining
the stamps and cash. The sentences
given were the limit of each count.

Change by the Children.

A new idea in advertising is called
n 'Children's Change Envelope The
name is sufficiently descriptive Into
this envelope goes the change the lit
tie boy or girl is to take back home,
and on the envelope goes an appro-
pirate advertisement. A good idea of
an appropriate advertisement for
such a place would be one reading
something like this:
If this envelope reaches you un.
opened the change in it should be
correct and in amount s.
We want you to feel that we will
treat your children just as fairly as
we would you.
We will take no advantage of them
and If the change is not right, let us
know at once.

Hints For Stock Owners.
May Farm Journal.

May Farm Journal.
Dock the lambs early that are to be
kept in the flock.
Driving on one rein is usually caused
by sharp tooth or teeth.
A run on the rye fields will be good
for the sheep and good for the rye.
Defective teeth may retard the
growth and development of a colt,
causing loss.
The cows should not be driven faster
than a walk while on the way to the
place of milking or feeding.
The flock should be turned to pasture
early, while there is short bite, but
leave them out only short time at first.
Before turning the young horses and
colts to pasture, have the teeth of each
one examined by competent veterinary
surgeon.
The difference in the handling of two
colts may make several hundreds of
dollars difference when they are offered
for sale.
Do not put any other stock in the pig
pasture. Cattle do not relish eating
after pigs, and colts are apt to injure
hogs by chasing them.
When the calf is about month old
separator milk can be given with fax
seed jelly added. Begin with about two
tablespoonfuls and increase to a cupful.
This is the month when cows go to
pasture through large part of the
country. Give them a good start. Keep
them in good heart till they have really
made the change from hay to grass. 1t
will pay.

DISCIPLESHIP

Have you and l today
Stood silent as with Christ
Apart from JOY or fray
OF life, to see His face?
To look if but a moment at its grace
And grow, by brief comPanionship, more true,
More nerved to lead, to dare to do
For Him at any cost?
Have we found time in thought
Our hand to lay in His and thus compare
His will with ours, and wear
The impress of His wish? Be sure
Such contact will endure:
Throughout the day, will help us walk erect
Mid storm and flood: detect
Within the hidden life sins dross, its stain:
Revive the thought of love for Him again,
Steady the steps that waver, help US see
The foot-Path meant for you, for me-
