THE sort of drag you use doesn't

have been to the tops of our mountain
ranges realize the magnificent see
merry. exhilarating breezes and healtn
giving atmosphere there. A trail
from Mt. Norris in Eden and Lowell
north to Jay Peak would present TO
the traveller some of the hnest
scenery in Vermont. On the west are
seen Lake Champlain and the Adiron-

Crystal lakes and a score of ponds and
beautiful bits of water. On the
north are seen the mountains of Canada
and the silver threads of various
rivers vending their way, through
the meadows and forests, while on the
south one sees continuous panorama
of wooded mountains and valleys.
MANY who have climbed mountains
quite extensively express astonlsh'
ment and pleasant surprise at the
magnificent view from Jay Peak.
More Orleans county people ought te
climb Jay Peak. 1t is not an ex'

feeling of exhilaration that does one
good, and an appetite that is out OF

encourage making this trail through

The Monitor notes that Vermont
now ranks second among the states of
the United States in the production
of tale or soapstone. 1t may be in
teresting to know that near the as
bestos deposits in Lowell is a large
soapstone deposit said to be of ex,
cellent quality. The deposit was once
worked, but transportation facilities
were lacking A railroad opening up
the Lowell asbestos mines would also
make it possible to reopen what is
said to be a valuable soapstone prop
erty. That section of Vermont needs
a railroad.

Rather ROUGH on the Neighbors.

Many brain workers find at times
distinct need for some violent frolic
or escape to relieve their pent-up

One such man has a preference for

the Dead March in Saul with one
finger; a third, after a heavy days
work. will go round the neighborhood
ringing door bells; whilst a fourth, to
steady his nerves, will dash a teacup
against a wall.
1t seems an idiotic thing to slap :

actor does; and he does it in such a
gentlemanly fashion, and pays so lib

Much favorable comment is being
made on the new standard required by

course of the present normal schools
of Vermont except graduates of ap-
proved high schools and academies OF

"That to the present lower course

The B. & M. May Build on New
Hampshire SIDE.

There is reason to believe that
within a few days the Boston &
Maine railroad will begin operations
on the New Hampshire side of the
Connecticut river in anticipation of
carrying out the original project of
building line from South Vernon to
Brattleboro through Hinsdale, N.
H., says a Brattleboro correspondent.
The Boston & Maine is taking up
the options it secured Of the proposed
right of way in New Hampshire, over
which q line has been surveyed,
which indicates that the road intends
to buy the right of way and can hard
~ mean anything else except that
! building operations are due to begin
soon. It has been known that Presi-
dent G.. S. Mellen has been unable to
secure any decision from the Central
Vermont officials relative to the eX-
tension of the Vermont Valley road
through the Central Vermont yard in
Brattleboro and this knowledge, coup
led with the statement made by Pres
ident Mellen of the Boston & Maine
several months ago that he must have
link to connect his road at South
Vernon with the southern terminus OF
the Vermont Valley road at Brattle
boro and have it built this year, give:
color to the ll-grounded rumor tina
at last operations are about to begin.

The Lightning Bugaboo.

With the coming of the thunder
storms that accompany the extremes
of heat, many people are again made
miserable. Nearly everyone has some
neighbor whose uneasiness begins
from the moment little thurderhead
pokes it's nose above the horizon, the
progress of which across the sky IS
watched with fear stricken eyes.
It may comfort such persons to
know that the average proportion OF
deaths from lightning is five in a
million. II is much more dangerous
to ride On a railroad train.
Of that five in a million, good
proportion of cases were preventabie
by ordinary common sense, by not
sheltering beneath some conspicuously
isolated tree, by keeping indoors and
not close to windows, doors, or
chimneys.
The worst danger about thunder
storm is that you may have for
gotten to renew your insurance
policy on some isolated building. Fol-
/ lightning is real danger to inf1am
mable property, if not to human
/ beings. Springfield Reporter.
