The Brattleboro daily reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1913-1955, 1914-05-07
Donnell & Davis

Doubtless you ladies are all more
or less interested just now reading the
details in connection with the marriage
of Miss Wilson, daughter of the Presi-
dent.
Her elaborate trousseau, including
nine hats, was purchased and fashioned
at Kurzman's, one of the leading Fifth
avenue shops.
The above firm is where we pur-
chase our French models, thus enabling
us to obtain the latest dictates of style.
You can judge whether we are in
position to give you correct ideas.
The above ideas are not wholly con-
fined to our more expensive millinery
See the Trimmed Hats we are sell
ing from $3.50 to $500. Do you wonder
these are quick sellers?
If you wish the very cheap hat, we
have it.
If the medium grade, you will
find it.
If the better grade, we can supply
you.
If the finest grade, it is here.
Seeing is believing.
Respectfully
Donnell & Davis

to . "Llncoln afternoon" Wednss-
day, February II, at the home Of the
latter.
The beautiful new home Of the
Coudray's was decorated with the
eight handsome Government flags
owned by the local forest ofiice. They
we're drsped gracefully in appropriate
places, while festoons Of crepe, rib
bon streamers Of the national colors,
tiny flags and pictures Of Lincoln
produced . most pleasing and APP
propriste aspect. A tiny log cabin,
surrounded by q stake and rider
fence, with the characteristic pile Of
rails In one corner Of the yard,
proved . very fitting decoration for
the dining table typical of LincolnS
birthplace.
Fully sixty guests responded to the
invitations while others sent regrets
because Of sickness.
During the afternoon an interesting
program was rendered.
After the program was rendered,
Ave Of the High School girls assisted

bearing tiny silk flag which served
as souvenir Of this most successful
and beautiful affair.
During the lunch appropriate music

FOOD AND FUEL ARMIES.
What the Increasing Population Of th'
World May Force.

What the Increasing Population Of the
World May Force. :
According to Professor Fl. N. Dick
son of the University college. Edin-
burgh, the world IL beginning to feel
the pinch Of fuel and food. The pro-
fessor told the scientists gathered at
Birmingham to attend the annual
meeting Of the British Association For
the Advancement Of Science that the
human race was In the position Of q
family which had occupied the same
farm for centuries and had SO increas-
ed in numbers as to outgrow the pro-
ductiveness Of the place, making re-
moval to other land necessary. Only
In the case of the human family there
II no means Of migrating to another
planet.
Wheat acreage. this learned geogra-
pher tells Us. Is not keeping pace with
the increase Of population. and "the
crisis will be upon W before the end
Of the century" The supply Of coal
will last less than three centuries. The
only course open to NJ. he says. u .
stock taking Of our resources and re-
distribution Of population. with an en-
phasis on the raising Of food.
While Professor Dickson does not
say 80. his Idea seems to be that as a
nation tells OF 30 many men to serve
in Its army Of defense, 30 the world Of
the future will have to tell on 80 many
men to serve az food raisers. Even
k,r. So ~ hok kv1 n
ming will become as important as town
planning-which seems to be reason.

CHAOS IN BOUNDARIES.

Frontiers In South America Are IN
Uncertain Quantity.
The frontiers Of Bolivia. like those Of
most South American countries, are
very uncertain, and map Of South
America made in Bolivia includes a
vast portion Of the level lands east Of
the Andes called the Chacs. A map Of
South America made by the Argentine
Republic shows Bolivia as an entirely
different country. with no Chaco with
in Its boundary. Then 4 map Of South
America made in Peru includes vast
hinterland in Amazonia. while ono
made In Brazil shows the Brazilian
frontier away over in the territory
marked Peru on the Peruvian map.
while the map makers Of Ecuador and
Colombia show an entirely different
disposition of the lands at the head
waters of the Amazon from that de-
scribed by the Brazilian and Peruvian
map makers. -
There Is, however. commission
composed of Brazilians and Peruvians
who are at the headwaters Of the ANA
zon delimiting the frontiers of Peru
and Brazil and incidentally rectifying
the claims Of Ecuador and Colombia.
Meanwhile Bolivian soldiers are hight
ing Argentine soldiers on the Chaco.
and 30 the question stands. In 1902
King Edward VII. delimited the from
tiers Of Chile and Argentina. but the
Chileans thought he gave the Argen-
tines too much. so they allow the ad-
venturers and bad men Of Chile to 60
into this disputed territory. and they
swoop down from the hills and cap
ture the cattle upon the Argentine
plains Just as the highlanders used to
do In Scotland. = Peter MacQueen In

The best tea In all China and there

R.dium and Mssetherium.

A short time ago we were told au-
thoritatively that radium has no value
in the treatment Of cancer. Now we
learn that the German authorities are
buying the whole available supply for
this very purpose. and German meds
ical practice is of the severely conserva-
tive kind. Over million dollars has
been voted by various German munich
palities for the purchase Of radium.
and this Is about the value Of the
whole existing supply. 1t seems that
there is another product similar to ra-
dium and with the same medical val
Ne. 1t is called mesothorium. and its
price is only $4,000 per gram. 1t Is
said that the Austrian government has
n practical monopoly Of both radium
and mesothorium.
