When the newspapers tell us that
a man put his head out of 4 train
window, sneezed and lost his false

returned to him by parcels post, it is
'2 mutch." Having ones name and

The Truth About
Electric Cooking

For large families where
the average domestic help is
employed and a large
amount of cooking done,
Electric Cooking will be
found more expensive, and
in most cases not advisable.
In small families, where
no help is employed, and
where nice equipment is de- e;
sired, Electric cooking will
be found many times more
convenient, more certain in
results and safer in opera
tomas we'll as reasonable
in cost.
In every family a few
utensils for early breakfast
emergency and special uses
and for cheering up cold
meals with a warm dish or
two-is highly advisable
from every standpoint, in
Guiding that Of economy.

A SILENT WOMAN.
Refuses to Say Yes or No and Stayed in
Chair All Night.

A woman. apparently about 45 years
of age and of slight physique, is giving
the Montpelier authorities no end Of
perplexity. The woman was first seen in
the Central Vermont station early yes
terday morning Last evening she again
showed up at the station, whereupon
the station men sent word to Mayor Es-
tee who, in turn, notified Chief Durkee
OF the police department and Overseer of
the Poor Lamphere. The officials tried
to engage the woman in conversation
but could not get her to say even yes or
no.
Failing to find out anything about the
woman, the officials engaged room in
the Tomasi block on Main street and
took her there. The woman was fairly
well dressed and had Sl.50 and slip
of paper in her possession. On the slip
OF paper was written memorandum:
Fountain pen, bottle of ink toothbrush,
comb Argus & Patriot Co. store"
This morning the officials went to the
Tomasi block and found the woman had
not slept in the bed but had stayed in
chair all night. She was no more COM
municative this morning than she was
last night. A physician, who examined
her last night, said the woman appar-
emily was not i'll and was not suffering
from the effects of any drug. They think
she is an English-speaking woman.

DAMAGE WIDESPREAD.
Commissioner Gates Tells of Some of
Storm Damage To Highways.

Burlington, April la.--state Highway
Commissioner c. w. Gates, who was az
the Van Ness house yesterday on his
way home from a trip to Bennington
county, is gradually getting in an esti'
mate of the damage done to the roads
in Vermont by the recent foods. Hun
dreds of culverts have been swept away
in addition to many bridges, and in some
places the road has gone so far that
new route will be located, as it will
be cheaper build new road than TO
fill in and repair the old one. The most
noteworthy example of this is in the
town of Rupert, where a quarter OF Il
mile has been washed away to a depth
of several feet, There is no doubt but
what the total damage will amount to
hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Grand Isle was hard hit with trouble
at Sandbar, Isle La Motto and Grand
Isle bridges and on these three alone
several thousands will necessarily be ex-
pended before they are in good condi-
ton The Grand Isle bridge is the
worst and has not been passable for
a week. One approach was completely
swept away and at least % spiles will
be driven to replace those crushed by
the Ice which was driven against them.
Bethel lost IL culyerts and a bridge,
and Stockbridge, White River Junction,
where long bridge went, Arlington,
Rupert, Brandon, Peru and
Royalton are among the other heavy
sufferers. In many towns the entire
mount appropriated for roads has al
'eady been spent. Chittenden county
was among the lightest losers.

PERHAPS FATALLY HURT.
Frank A. Ames Thrown to Street When
Auto Overturned.

Boston, April l9.-Frank A. Ames, a

ously and perhaps fatally, injured as the
result of an automobile accident on Nor
ton street, West Roxbury, shortly after
$3.50 last evening.
Mr.. Ames was driving his touring car.
of which he was the sole occupant, along
Morton street in the direction of Malta
pan. When about 80 yards south of
Canterbury street he either lost control
of the car or the wheels skidded and the
machine crashed into a telephone pole
at the left of the road. The car was
overturned and Ames was thrown with
violence to the street, striking on his
head
Larry Lowenthal of AS Lena park,
Dorchester, who was near, heard his
groans and ran to the spot, where he
found Ames lying half unconscious in
the road. He FASTENED to notify DIR.
Lewis S. McQuaid and the police of the
West Roxbury station. After tempo
rary treatment, he was taken to the
City hospital.
He sustained compound fracture of
the skull, cuts on the lip and the left
side of the face.
