Accessories for the
Popular Bridge Game.

Bridge promises to become more
and more popular, and is now played
just as much during summer as in
the winter months. Many new ideas
have appeared upon the market as
accessories to the popular game. A
machine has been invented to deal
the cards, thus saving the dealer any
extra eXertion. A pack of cards is
placed in the machine, the dealer
turns a crank and the cards are dis
tributed in four neat piles before
each player Then for those who are
interested in working out unusual
Tor the mere practice or
science OF it, boards have been in
vented which make the exposed
hands and their manipulation quite
easy. Tiny decks of cards come with

Stuffed eggs wrapped in six-inch

Enlistment Of rural credit societies.

In donating one thousand dollars to
the Home for Destitute Children in Bur
lington, Gov. Fletcher refers to the
amount as your institutions proper
ton of the amount which il has been
customary for the governor OF Vermont
to spend on the governors ball. The
inference from the statement is that the
governors ball, as usually carried out at
Montpelier, costs considerably more
than one thousand dollars, say many
times that amount. If it is true that
governors have been paying such sum
for the comparatively simple social af-
fair that has been the rule then the
governors of Vermont have been imposed
on most shamefully. However, it is bare
ly possible that Governor Fletcher has
been misinformed on the matter and
that the hiring of the hall, the music,
the decorations, the refreshments and
the attendance of servants, with other
dance accessories, have not demanded
such a sum as he imagines. Neverthe
less, there will not be great complaint
that the governors ball is to be done
away with this year.

She had all the charms that Nature In hei

Henrietta was a beauty. as you doubt
less have inferred.
The possessed a gentle manner and tenn
per that was sweet.
She was always doing something for the
ones who needed aid.
Scandal was a thing she never found II
pleasing to repeat:
From the path that leads to heaven
Henrietta never strayed.
She possessed 10 taste for ragtime. and
she ne'er INDUCED In slang
Henrietta was arsisfi, from her fingers
TO her toes.
Sweetest ecstasies were given TO her hear
ers when she sang.
She was free from afrectation and was
not inclined to pose.
She respected age. believing that the old
could be sublime.
And instead of reading novels she dipped
into classic lore.
She could neatly darn a stocking or con-
struct witty rime,
And she wasn't always thinking of the
pretty things she wore.
Do not think and do not say that Henri
eta was myth;
Do not say that one SO perfect never on

play TO the farmer vote Mr.. Taft Ia a

as he does that real prosperity has its
root IN the soil, he Is favorable 10 all

knows that he will advance the interests

prosperity at the present high pitch.
And more and more IL seems that the
farmer Is coming 10 realize this. The
Canadian reciprocity policy had II bad
effect, but IL is difficult 10 see why a
Republican farmer should desert the
president and rally to the support Of
Mr.. Roosevelt because of this. For as a
matter OF fact, MIR. Roosevelt, in letters
to the president, praised his reciprocity

the people of Vermont, who are inter
ested in athletics-and il really is sur
prising to see how the magnetism of the
game has drawn people of all sorts-the
eight games just concluded have been OF
particular interest because two Vermont
young men have been numbered among
the performers on the Boston team.
William Lawrence Gardner of Enosburg
Falls, third baseman, and Ray Collins of
Burlington, pitcher, have played prom
inent parts in the games, as they have
for the entire season in their own league,
and Vermont people have been inter-
ested to follow men of this stamp in the
greatest game of the period. Each is
a man of modest disposition, capable
of playing only clean baseball" yet
playing with all the energy of earnest
workers and bringing to the game an
ability that has won them no small re-
nown in the athletic world.
In fact, the Boston Red Sox team
largely is composed of young men of
this kind, men who have been accused
by some OF playing with too little fight,
but who nevertheless have won without
pugnacious display-and won, too,
against team which was in every way
worthy OF their steel. Therefore, their
