Interesting Search,

William Dana circuit, whose new
novel, THE Moth" has just been pub
lished by the Harpers, is noted for his
extreme diligence in verifying all his
torical facts that appear in his novels.
When writing one of his earlier nov
els, THE SPELL" he made a special
trip to Florence In order to verify Ger,
tain illusions and locations. One Of
the first, pilgrimages was to San Do
menico to find the ancient inscription
upon the wall, which Helen Armstrong
points out to her husband In the first
chapter. Says the author, Il had never
been able to discover where obtained
this data, so was particularly anxious
TO verify it. One morning, accompanied
by Mrs. circuit, set out on what SEEM
ed hopeless quest. We located the
old Etruscan wall, with its curious
marks, but no legends. Finally we
came to some flaring posters announ-
cling an auction sale. and beneath
these, when pulled aside, we found
the Latin words, cut deep in the
stone" H.

SOME REALLY GRAND OLD MEN
Historical Records of Longevity That

The Mexican who has just died at
the alleged age Of 1S5 has been pre-
deceased according to American
news) during the past dozen years or
so by a citizen Of New Brunswick
aged 1872. anda comparative youngster
of Valley Mills, Tex, whose age was
only lis.
The man in the street will be par.
doned for thinking that the 1876 has
been inadvertently transposed from
a cricket report. Among ex-Biblical
heroes probably Aid Parr and Henry
Jenkins will stand as the best au-
thenticated instances of superlongev-
ity. The monument at Bolton, York
shire, records that Jenkins attained
"the amazing age of 1853"
"A man tx &c." observed Mr. Dooleg
recently, 'looks down on a man iv 80,
and receives his callow opinyons
with supercilyous smile;" and for
that reason probably (if not because
he was f1sherman) Jenkins was able
to give evidence on oath concerning
matters 140 years or SO previous. AS
a hale young centenarian he WAS in
the habit Of swimming the Swale
with ease" and as boy he is said
to have taken a herse-load Of arrow

THE HYDE PARK
SAVINGS BANK
Passed the Two and Cne-half Million
Dollar Milestone January LIST.

On the 2lst day of January, 1889,
the Hyde Park Savings Bank opened
its doors to the public. On the first
day of January, 1913 its assets were
S2,515, 910.9S.
For twenty-four years it has
been leading factor in the develop
ment, progress and growth of every
business enterprise within its legiti-
mate sphere of business, which has
applied to it for financial assistance
and backing.
In these twenty-four years we have
passed through two monetary or
business panics, panics so severe in
the financial world that the great
majority of the banks of the country
were compelled to withhold financial
aid to those who asked therefor.
But during all these years the La
noble County Savings Bank and
Trust Co. has never declined a loan
asked for by any business interest
of Lamoille County, or, indeed, of
any other County in Vermont which
could legitimately expect to be cared
for by this bank.
1t has been a pillar of strength
which has never failed in times of
direst financial stress.
1t extends its kindly greetings to
Vermonters everywhere as it COM
mences its twenty-fifth year of sub
stantial progress, and suggests that
when you have any surplus money to
deposit at a per nt,-all taxes paid
by the Bank--you make your deposit
with the Hyde Park Bank, feeling the
fullest assurance that in so doing you
will place your money where it is
safe beyond reasonable doubt.
The Hyde Park Savings Bank has
an earned surplus of $97, 342.35; it's
capital and stockholders liability is
$l0O,0O0.OO so that before any de-
position could suffer loss, the bank
would have to lose S197, 342.35.
That such a loss is entirely improba-
BILE is evidenced by the fact that in
the tWenty-four wears of the hanks
existence it has never lost dollar by
poor note and believes that today
every dollar of its assets, whether in
notes, bank stocks or bonds, is good
beyond reasonable doubt.
Write to the President, Carroll S.
Page, or Treasurer, F. M. Culver, for

Fame.

Great minds had rather deserve
contemporaneous applause, without
obtaining it, than obtain without de-
serving it; If it follow them, it is
well; but they will not deviate to fol-
low 1t. With inferior minds the re-
verse is observable; so that they
can command the fiattery of knaves
while living, they care not for the
excrations of honest men when dead.
Milton neither aspired to present
fame, nor even expected it; but Ito
use his own words) his high ambi-
ton was to leave something so writ
ten to after ages, that they should
not willingly let 1t die" And Cato
finely observed that he would much
rather that posterity should inquire
why no statues were erected to him,
than why they were.

Germans Slot Literature,

Penny in the slot literature is the
latest thing in Germany. A firm Of
publishers at Leipzig has patented an
automatic machine which gives a
choice OF a dozen small paper covered
volumes which are displayed behind
glass. On strip Of paper across
each volume is printed brief descrip-
ton of the book, and a coin in the slot
does the rest. These automatic ma
chimes are to be placed in hotel lob
bies. waiting rooms, theater foyers and
other public places. The hope is ex-
pressed that as the books offered are
carefully selected and by flrst-class au-
thors the venture may have benef.
cial educative effect upon the masses
and thus counteract the influence Of
the cheap and trashy literature with
which the country is fiooded.-Ex.

DIVIDED INTO TWO CLASSES
Differing Processes of the Mind May
Be cisssed Either as the avis
ual" or the "Asuditive."

The great majority of people can be
classified in one or other OF two psy-
Geological types, corresponding TO the
great senses Of sight and hearing.
These classes sometimes are called
the "vlsuals" and the "audltyes" re-
spectively. The "visuals' or visualiz-
ers seem to conduct the majority Of
their mental processes by visual sym
bolism. They think in pictures;
their mental method is graphic. The
majority of women belong to this
group. and, of course. the majority of
painters, sculptors. architects, deco
rators. engineers and mechanically
gifted people Such people readily APP
prehend space relations, and can con-
ceive new o. IS. If they possess this
power in high degree they may paint
fine pictures. build new types of archi-
lecture, conceive new machines.
The auditives, on the other hand,
think more in sounds and words and
not in pictures. They naturally in
clude the musicians, the men of let
tiers and the scientific and philosophic
among men than among women. They
notice things around them less. and
are more commonly credited with be-
ing "absent-minded."
If great development of either is
rare, vastly rarer is great develop
ment of both in one and the same in
dividual. Such individuals stand out
as the few supreme examples of what
we call versatility and of these the
most notable representative in the his.
