the 3Sth annual convention of the

ing at ten o'clock at the Methodist
church after a preliminary session
last evening and a prayer meeting at
$50 o'clock this morning. This is
the fifth time that the convention has
been held in this city, the State body
being organized here in 1876 and the
annual sessions of 1888, 1895 and 1902
being in Rutland Only about so
delegates responded to the opening
roll call but others came on the af
ternoon trains.
The reports of State officers were
the most interesting features of the
morning session Mrs. E. Mead Den
ny of Montpelier stated that $9S09
was expended in the interest of tenn
perance work in the State during the
last II months At the close of the
year previous there was S1.23 on hand

other hand. the revised Perfume
is better remedy for some conditions
than Ka-tar-no. They are both in
tended as catarrh remedies. They hav.
both done great work in relieving
catarrh, chronic and acute. Many
hundreds of cases OF chronic catarrh
have recovered while taking Ka-tar-no
and the same is true of the revised Pc
ru-na during the last six years since
its revision.
There is a difference, however in
the two remedies. Whenever catarrh
is associated with constipation then
the revised Pe-ru-na is the best. In
deed, this is exactly why the revision
was made, to meet such cases. But
where no laxative is needed, where the
bowels are regular or inclined to be
loose, then the old Pe-ru-na (Ka-tar-
no) is the better remedy.
The revised Pe-ru-na is for sale at
all drug stores. Those wishing to OBJ
tain Ka-tar-no, address The Ka-tar
Co., Columbus, Ohio.

Miss May Latham who is being

American tenor whose delightful

FABULOUS PRICE FOR POSING
Bernhard Received 100000 For
the Camille Motion Pictures

1t took a great deal of persuasion
and a greater amount of money be-
fore Sarah Bernhard finally acceded
to the requests of the motion picture
men. One hundred and fifty thous-
and francs, or 100000 was the ex-
act amount which Nine Bernhard re
ceived for playing her famous role of
Camille" before the moving picture
camera.
After making up her mind, how
ever. she entered into the spirit of
the thing with the enthusiasm OF a
school girl Instantly she became
very much interested in motion pic
lures, visiting picture shows in all
parts of Paris, and spending hours in
studios talking with operators and
actors connected with motion photo
graphy. 1t was not long before she
was an encyclopedia of knowledge
concerning this new art.
Camille" was selected as the We
hicle for her to invade the new field
as it is in this play that Nine. Bern
hardt has always given her greatest
emotional portrayal.
Several rehearsais were held and
on a set date Bernhard and her own
company from the Theatre Sarah
Bernhardt, Paris, gave an epochmak-
ing performance of Camille" before
| the camera.
Thus was the superb acting and
genius Of the worlds greatest actress
recorded by the most wonderful of
inventions for the benefit of the en-
tire civilized world. II is, moreover,
a record that will be understood by
all nationalities.
The remarkable motion pictures OF
Sarah Bernhardt in Camille" will be
seen in this city for two days begin.

and hardened, his companion prayed
for wisdom. eff ] can only win

Blair said:
tYou haven't hesitated to call me

or my age, and l can't thrash you"
And his host said cheerfully: ooh,
yes, you can; come on and try" and
metaphorically speaking, Dan struck
his first blow:
"They say-people have said to me
that you once cared for Lily yours

The Englishman's heavy eyelids did

Taken back by this frank response,
Blair stammeIed: "Well, guess that
explains everything. It's not surpris-
ing that you should feel as you do. If
you are jealous, can forgive it lit
tie bit, but it is low down to call a
woman a fortune hunter"
Now Gordon Galorey's face changed
and grew slightly white. Don't make
me angry, my dear chap" he said in a
low tone; 81 have said what l wanted
to say. Now, go to the devil if you
like and as soon as you like"
And the boy said holly, stammering
in his excitement:

you what think"
Gordon, with wonderful control Of
his own anger, met the boys eyes, and
said with great patience:
mo, don't, Dan; don't go on. There
are many things in this affair that we
can't touch upon. Let it drop. The
right woman would make a ripping
man of you, but you oughtn't to marry
for ten years"
Dan took the hand which Galorey
put out to him, and the Englishman
said warmly: "My dear chsr. i hope
it will all come out right, from my
heart"
Dan, who had regained his balance,
said to his friend:
'I've been very angry at what you

hold the hound. Soon the cur came
back like hurricane, leaped a steak
and rider fence, with loud grunt,
when uncle told me to let the hound
go, that it was sure bear trail.
Soon the dogs began barking up
tree on the bank of the river near
where Harry Buttertield used to live
before moving to Baraboo. AS we
neared the spot where the dogs were
barking we could hear the bIeating as
of sheep. Uncle says. "DeWitt what
is that?" frankly told hun [ was
afraid bis bear dogs had turned
sheep ours, when he advised me that
it was cub. Then all at once the dogs
quit barking; everything was still as
death for few moments; uncle was
puzzled and 1 often thought that he
had almost come TO the conclusion that
his dogs had turned sheep ours and
were feasting on mutton. Then they
began barking again in the direction
from which we had JUS come, and
again the bleating. This time we SON
came up and sure enough there sat a
cub bear on big warG grown out OF
the trunk of a large elm tree about
Thirty feet from the ground. Uncle

shot it and we proceeded to make our
way TO the road once more and then
tor home. But, almost before we had
gotten the cub shouIdered, away went
the dogs again, giving tongue at almost
every jump and soon out of hearing in
the direction of Portage.
It was now long after midnight but
the excitement kept us from feeling
fatigued and we made tracks right
back on our old trail. After getting
some distance below the old Palmer
pace we heard our dogs barking on
the river bank near the bayou and we
began taking that direction. By this
time the dogs were tired and only
barked at intervals and it took us
some time to find them. We called
too, occasionally, to encourage them
to bark constantly and finally
we knew they heard us for

know how to go to her with cock
and-bull story. I shall act as I feel
and go ahead being just as l am, and
perhaps she won't want me after all,
even if l have got the rocks!"
And Galorey said heartily: II wish
there was a chance of it"
When, later, Gordon thought Of Dan
it was with a glow. what a chip
of the old block he is" he said; what
a good bit of character, even at TWEEN
ty-two years" He was divided be-
tween feeling that he had made a
mess of things between Dan and him
self, and feeling sure that some of his
advice had gone home. After a mo-
ment's silence, Dan Blair's son said:
'I'm going up to London tomorrow"
"For long?"
Don't know"
Then returning with boyish simplic-
it to their subject, which Galorey
thought had been dropped, Dan said:
"There may be something true in
what you say, Gordon. Perhaps she
does want my money. I'm not a titled
man and I'll never be known for any.

I was rich when I asked her to marry
me, and I'm going to fix up that old
place of hers, and I'm glad I've got the
coin to do it,"
When, later, for they had been in
terrupted in their conversation by the
entrance of the lady herself, Gordon,
as Ruggles had done, mentally thought
of the flowing tide of life. and how it
flowed over what he himself had call
ed "rotten ground" Perhaps old
Blair was right, he unused, after all.

persistent bark until we came up.
Again we could hear the bleating. The
moon, which had shone up to this
time, had now set and reminded us of
the addage that, "the darkest hour is
sometimes Just before the break of
day." which proved to be the case
now. We soon located another cub
away up in the fork of large red oak.
Uncle remarked that he did not care
much whether he killed it or not If it
would only come down; he would like
to SEE the dogs have little tussle
with il for practice. Then he took
aim and fired and to our amazement
he found we had full glown bear on
our hands for it looked as large as
COW when it began falling and struck
the ground with terrible thump.
The dogs tackled her, she tried to hug
them, but uncle had luckily given her
a hard shot and her strength was fast
giving out. Another shot at close
range finished her.
We hung her up as best we could
and went to uncle's. 1t was after
sunrise. We called the folks up and
got Herman Wilkinson with his old
blind mare which on several occasions
had carried bear out of the woods on
her back. The rest was easy. A fox
