While looking around we observed a
mariner coming down the river in a

used He tied to a stake and went up
in town for load of bilge water. We
could easily have taken his boat with

we were not that sort

were stored some brushes and Il can
of bright red paint. Inside of ten min
utes we had that yawl looking like a
fiery sea serpent. We hid behind a
pile of lumber to await the mariner.
Pretty soon he came staggering down.
and when he saw that red boat there
he sat on the bank and mopped his
forehead. We could hear him mum

Suit In Blood.

The winter palace of the cars was
built In blood. Almost every stone of
the walls and every square yard of the
plaster lining them cost a life. Mich
olas had given the order that the pal
ace must be rebuilt in a year, and
what was human life against the des-
pots viii? Six thousand men were
kept at work day and night, with the
palace heated at 80 r. to dry the walls
rapidly. while the temperature outside
was often 80 degrees below zero r..
The men could only work with ice
packs on their heads. and, experience
ing a daily change of 60 degrees, they
died by the score every day. BY the
end of the year the death roll was
some thousands, but the palace was
finished.

AN ENGINE OF TORTURE.
The Pilory Was Not Abolished In Eng
land Until 1887.

land Until 1887.
The pillory was done away with by
act of parliament in the year 1887, and
it Is amazing that 1t should have en-
dured until that date, for 1t was a
mode OF punishment which could be
made so extremely barbarous as to be
a crying scandal 70 any nation. This
engine OF torture seems to have been
known before the conquest under the
name of stretch neck" which is pleas
antly suggestive of its functions
Edward l. enacted that oil stretch
necks should be made of proper size
so that the life OF the occupant should
not be endangered, and print of the
reign Of Henry Ill shows very clearly
what the pillory was like in those days.
The culprit was mounted upon stool.
at one side Of which was fixed pole,
supporting a pair of boards hinged TO
gether and with holes cut in them
large enough to admit the wrists and
neck.
The hands and arms were thus held
on level with the face, and the APP
palling stiffness which this must have
caused can well be imagined. Thus
confined and powerless. the offender
was placed in some public spot, where
the riffraff employed themselves hurl-
ing dirt, sticks and stones at him until
they were tired or until the object Of
their sport succumbed, as not infre-
quently came to pass.
1t would seem that primarily the pill
lory was intended for cheats of all
kinds, such as mountebanks, fraude-
lent dealers in horses, coal, corn, etc,
and we read in Fabian that the mayor
of London In 1887 did sharp correc-
ton upon bakers for making bread Of
light weight. He caused divers of
them to be put in the pillory. as also
one Agnes DANTE for selling of min
gled butter" Soot1saying and other
magic arts were also punished with
the pillory.
IL would appear that famous men did
not appear in the pillory until after
1857. when star chamber decree for
bade the printing of any book or PAM
phlet without permission from the
archbishop Of Canterbury, the bishop
of London or the university authori-
ties and also made an order that any
printer who did not conform to this
and set up a printing press should not
only be pilloried. but also whipped
through the city Of London.
Stafford is told by Garrard the way
in which three men underwent their /
pilloryings. They stood two hours in
the pillory. The place was full of peo-
pie, who cried and howled terribly, /
when Barton was cropped. |
DIR. Bastwick was very merry. His
wife, DR.. Poes daughter, got on stool |
and kissed him. London Globe.

WHY SAVINGS BANKS
ARE ESSENTIAL.

Because people having money to invest
are often tempted by designing persons
to 90 into schemes which, while promis-
ing large returns, usually bring disaster.
Probably there are no more shrewd,
far-sighted, conservative investors of
money than successful life insurance
companies.
They employ expert men--men who
make the study of investments their life
work; who pass upon all applications for
loans and investments; and it is a fact
which anyone can verify by getting the
insurance companies reports, that four
to five per cent interest is all these com
panies are able to make their loans
average.
Those sehemers would go to unsophis-
ticated women or inexperienced men and
tell them that they could just as well get
six per cent. as four, well know that If
their schemes were solid, substantial and
safe, they could borrow money by the
million from these life insurance COM
panies.
The Lamoille County Savings Bank
and Trust company of Hyde Park never
takes a note paying over six per cent
If any person brings paper TO that
bank which will pay more than six per
cent, it turns it down, because it wants
no better evidence that it is dangerous
than the fact that it offers to pay more
than six per cent.
What is the result
In its more than twenty-three years
of existence, this bank has never lost
dollar by poor note.
Safety, rather than high rates of in
terest,' is its motto; and, knowing this,
depositors, not only from Vermont, but
from every state in the union Except
threel select the Hyde Park bank as
place of deposit for their savings.
You can send your funds there by mail
with absolute safety. and it is perfectly
safe to send them either in registered
letter, postal money order, bank draft,
personal check, or express money order.
During the entire existence of the
Hyde Park bank, not dollar sent to it
by mail has ever been lost.
This bank pays four per cent, com
pounded semi annually, and pays all
taxes.
II you want to know all about its
assets, liabilities, management, etc. adj
lress letter to Carroll S. Page, presi-
lent, or F. NJ. Culver, treasurer, Hyde
Park, Vermont, asking therefor, and you
