A Swarm Of Flies

do, but what thrill of satisfaction
travels up your spine when you fin
ally strike on the kind of grub
Mr.. Fish has an affinity for.
That is the reason why successful
fishermen carry good variety OF
Trout Flies in their book.
That is the reason we have 231
different named patterns and sizes OF
English, Scotch and American flies;
enough kinds to satisfy the most fas
tidious taste OF every fisherman and
supply every fussy fish in the brook
with regular course dinner.
Remember this: Our flies are tied
to our order. They are true to name
They are good quality. They look
alive. They are silk flies tied to
good quality gut and hollow point
hooks, and they sell for the popular
price Of 80 cents per dozen.

the aggregate. A fine corps of teach
ers has been secured and splendid
work is being done.
To train in our Normal Schools
teachers for 1900 rural communities
would require a vast expenditure on
the part of the State, and if this
could be done the wages paid teach
ers of rural schools would have to be
materially increased or the bulk of
the teachers would seek places i'm the
graded schools of this or some other
State
Mr. Smiths plan would be admir-
able if it could be made to work but
with our limited financial resources
It would be rejected by a Vermont
Legislature as altogether too costly.
The teacher training classes are feas-
ible attempts to better the rural
schools. Let us make the best of this
manifest Improvement rather than
seek to secure something that we
know is entirely beyond our grasp

NEWS TRAVELS IN HOSF'raI.c :
Wireless outdone In Rapidly with
Which Patients Get Forbidden
Information.

"A very efficient system OF WIRE
less telegraphy exists in every hos.
pital," said the nurse. Apparently
all patients have the knack Of trans.
mitting messages, otherwise the news
OF serious cases would not travel so
quickly and accurately from ward to
ward. 1t is contrary to the rules for
hospital attendants to retail gossip,
and most Of them do observe strict
secrecy, yet Notwithstanding that pre-
caution there is never an interesting
case In the building whose history is
not known and discussed in the re-
motest corner.
Last week a boy suffering from a
peculiar kind Of throat trouble was
brought into q first floor ward. The
doctors were very much interested in
the case. yet they took special pains
never to mention 1t in the hearing OF
another patient. But for all the good
their caution did they might as well
have lectured on the case in every
ward; for when the boy died men and
women all about the hospital said to
the nurses:
so that poor boy died, did he?
guess there wasn't much hope for him
from the start
Now, how did the news travel?"

GARDEN ON VALUABLE LAND
Small Patch In Heart Of City Of Lon
don Is One Of Capitals
Curiosities.

There are many curious things
about the Bank of England, but among
them how many know that 1t posses
ses respectable garden? II Is to be
found Just inside the Threadneedle
street entrance, on the left-hand side.
This old-fashioned garden has
fountain in the center, graveled paths
and couple Of trees, the whole form
ing quadrangle with the bank build
ing running all round.
Its history iB curious one. In real
ity this garden Is the churchyard of
the vanished Church Of St Christie
pher-le-Stock. which used to stand
where the Mansion House now is.
One reason why the church was
pulled down was because it's tower
completely overlooked the bank, and
1t was feared that It would be a dan.
ger to the "Old Lady" II the church
was occupied by rioters.
AS the bank occupies the site OF the
entire parish Of st. Christopher-le-
Stock. 1t is said that any freeman of
the city can claim admission to the
old garden. But, as matter OF fact,
any one who cares to see It may do SO
during business hours, and II IL well
worth visit, II only for the fact that
1t Is the most valuable garden In the
world
