a British emperor of India has come
to this seat Of the old kings of In
dia to assume his title as ruler of
the vast eastern empire.
The Gurbar, for which elaborate
preparations had been under way for
months. took place in a great camp to
the north of the city, some five miles
square. The temporary population of
this camp is about a quarter of a mil
lion, and it is furnished with all the
conveniences of modern life, includ-
ing 81 postoffices, 10 telegraph offices
and v e electric light, railways, motor
cars and taxi cabs. There the people
gathered for the durbar have been
amusing themselves for several days
with polo, hockey and military tourna-
ments and other festivities.
Display Of Jewels Is Wonderful.
The durbar proper took place in an
immense semi-circular amphitheater
on the historic ridge where a few
E~nglishmen once made a heroic stand
against the revolving natives. In the
center of the semi-circle was a throne
of gold and silver surmounted by a
copper dome. Taking his seat on
this, George received the homage of

he drove over the hills with the sum-
mer boarder.
Fact is, some of us think the Sc.
lec'men use the tax money a little too
freely keepin' pace with the speerit
of progress that seems to be in the
air nowadays. Here, in the last year,
the town hall has had a new roof, an
a new boss shed has been built around
the church, n a new handle put in
the town pump. an a bridge costin'

when the tw%enty-four state trumpet

Hardinge, viceroy of India, and Lady

Most spectacular was the grand re-
view of troops, about 10000 in num-
Der. Most of these were native
troops, and they were CARRIED in the
most gorgeous uniforms in the world.
The rajahs and other native princes
present brought their own elephants,
the size of the animal depending on
the rank Of its owner, and the huge
brutes, with their magnificent how
dahs and other trappings, added much
to the oriental splendor of the scene.
Presents for Indian Subjects.
The king and queen brought from
England a vast number of presents
for their Indian subjects, including a
thousand plum buildings made in the
Buckingham palace kitchens, and a
great number Of rich cakes, York
hams and Stilton cheeses. Then there
are rolls of English linen, piles of
Buckinghamshire, honiton and point
laces, illustrated books, fancy leather
goods, silverware of all kinds, British
silks and v~elvets, pictures and photo

II Means Health
For'the Child

The careful mother, who watches close.
" the physical peculiarities of her chill
dren. will soon discover that the most
important thing in connection with q
child's constant good health Is to keep
the bowels regularly open. Sluggish
bowels will be followed by loss of appe-
tite. restlessness during sleep. irrita-
bility and a dozen and one similar evil
dences Of physical disorder.
At the first sign Of such disorder give
the child a teaspoonful of DR.. Caldwelrs
repeat the dose the following night IL
necessary-more than that will scarcely
be needed. You will find that the child
will recover its accustomed good spirits
at once and will eat and sleep normally.
This remedy is a vast improvement
over salts, .%cathartics. laxative waters
and similar things. which are altogether
too powerful for a child. The homes Of
Mrs. Evelyn Matson, GIG Milwaukee St.,
Milwaukee, Wis, n Mrs. Kate Hawley,
Waukesha. Wis.,, are always supplied with
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, and with
them, as with thousands of others, there
is no substitute for this grand laxative.
1t is really more than a laxative, for it
contains superior tonic properties which
help to tone and strengthen the stomach,
liver n bowels so that after a brief
use of it all laxatives can be dispensed
with and nature will do its own work.
Anyone wishing to make a trial of this
remedy before buying it in the regular
way Of a druggist at fifty cents or one
dollar a large bottle (family size) can
have a sample bottle sent to the home
free of charge by simply addressing DR..

tailed Service. =.
Washington, Dec. IL. - The annual
financial statement OF the postoftice
department submitted by Postmaster
General Hitchcock shows a surplus in
stead of deficit for the first time since
1883. The revenues for the fiscal year
ended June 80, 1911, amounted to
1927, 9,823.60 and the expenditures of
$237, 600, TOBIAS, leaving a surplus of
$219 1882. At the beginning of the
present administration in 1909 the
postal service vas in arrears to the
extent OF $17,479,77O.47, which was
decidedly the largest de!iciat on record.
In the brief space OF two years this de-
ficit has been changed into a substan-
tial surplus.
The wiping out of the deficit has
been accomplished without curtailment
OF postal facilities. On the contrary,
important extensions have been made
in every branch of the service. :
An important event OF the year was
the successful organization of the
postal savings system. On January 8,
1911, repositories were opened expert
mentally at a single p%ostofice in each
one of the 4S states and territories.
After a careful test for four months at
these Offices the system was rapidly
extended and now comprises practical
ly all of the $500 presidential post.
offices. Preparations are being made
to establish the system also in about
10000 fourth-class offices that do a
money order business.

Los Angeles, Dec. 1.-THE scope of
the investigation undertaken by the
federal grand jury here and the one
in Indianapolis, Ind, has not been
sharply defined. The government Of

after the testimony of witnesses has
proceeded further whether to return
indictments here or in Indiana against
those persons alleged to have been
implicated in a conspiracy unlawfully

jury his experience as a dynamiter.

Gov. Mead for Department Commander of

L. S. Grant Grand Army post of Ran
dolph is the leader in a movement to
secure the election of Gov. Mead of Rut-
land as the next commander of the Ver-
mont department of the Grand Army,
and it gives these reasons for its po-
sition:
Because he is the only governor of
any state in the Union who is a mem
Der of the Grand Army of the Republic,
Because he will give the department a
progressive and good business administra-
ton.
Because with Gov. Mead as commander
this department will be equal to that of
any state and will be given prominence
at all Grand Army gatherings, espec-
tally at the national encampment in Los
Angeles in 1912.
Because Gov. Mead is not seeking the
office, but the office seeks him as a
comrade pre- eminently fitted by expert
ence, knowledge of and connection with
important business affairs, as well as
by ability and personal presence, to fill
the office of department commander with
credit to himself and honor to the state

Returnlna to Old Country.

The passenger traffic over the Rutland
road from the north has been unusually
large the past week. especially on night
trains. On Friday night five extra cars
were tached to the night train for Bos-
ton, which had about 225 Italians and
Polanders on their way to the odd Coun-
try" All were men and had been at
work on the great farms of the North
west the past summer. For two or three
years the road has had the advantage of
this trade about this season of the year,
although the conditions of the season
vary the time of the return of the men.
They We're largely from western Canada
and have been employed in mining and
farm work.
One of the conductors who has been
with the road several years, in speaking
of the transportation of these men said:
up to 1908 the Rutland road never had
this trade, but beginning in the fall OF
that year, and each November since,
there have been hundreds going over our
road on their way TO the old country.
The men come over the Canadian Paci-
1ic and then direct to Boston via Bellows
Falls, where they ship direct for Italy.
Many of them return each year with the
coming of spring and go back again in
the fall to spend the winter months with
their families in their native country
This year we probably have carried about
400 thus far and there will be number
of other parties little later"
