IN BOSTON MARKETS
Cold Weather May Curtail Egg Receipts
and Send Prices Up.

Boston, Jan. l4.-Butter, cheese and
egg prices in the local market are about
the same as they were at the end OF
last week The lower prices recently
established ON butter seems to be at
tracing buyers, and the best goods are
cleaning up rather well. Because OF
this condition, there has been no fur
Their drop in prices, but prices here are
very much out of line with those in
other markets, and it would not be sur
prising if local quotations were lowered
in the next few deys. Prices of eggs
are unchanged, but the market has
distinctly firmer tone owing to the cold
and wintry weather the country over
which it is feared may curtail receipts
The cheese market holds firm under mod
crate offerings and fairly active de-
mand.

production on the market as soon as
natural conditions will allow. At pres
ent by far the largest part of the mag
nestle used in the United States is inn
ported and is consumed in the eastern
states, the importations being about 20
times the domestic production and rang
ing from 100000 to 10000 tons year.
Considerable interest in the domestic
production of magnesite has been
aroused of late in anticipation of the
possible advantage that may accrue with
the opening of the Panama canal, in the
hope that this new route may enable
California producers to reach the eastern
ports at sufficiently low freight rates to
allow them TO place their products on
the eastern market.

Rome G. Brown of Minneap-

to Enter Appeal
TO THE ALLOWANCE
OF J. G. BROWN CLAIM
Defense Asserts That Mat
ter Was Adjusted in
Minneapolis

In supreme court yesterday arguments
were concluded in the case of the city
of Montpelier VS.. the Central Vermont
railroad. The Windham county case of
Edwin p. Goodnow VS.. the Central Yer
mont railroad was stipulated for Brat
tleboro, and the Windham county case
Of Rosa b. StoclSwell vs.. Thomas f.
Stoekwell, for the support OF a mino,
child. was passed up on briefs. Sew
eral Orleans cases were set for trial
yesterday afternoon but the lawyers
missed connection at Wells River and
the cases had to be postponed until this
morning.
The arguments in the case brought by
Montpelier against the Central Vermont
were practically the same as those Civ
en- at Fridays session, the plaintiff as
sorting the land owned by the railroad
was used for farm purposes, while the
defendant insists it is used for railroad
purposes, or that such part of it as is
used for railroad purposes has not been
assessed.
The Washington county case in re es-
tate of Andrew c. Brown, Rome G..
Brown, appellant, came next. This is a
petition for leave to enter an appeal from

of Andrew G. Brown, and is brought

of which Joseph G. Brown was admin

was whether j. G. Brown or his father,
A. c. Brown, had it. J. G. Brown then
presented claim against the A. c.
Brown estate, and Rome G.. Brown, his
brother, protested, and instructed his
attorney to take an appeal II the claim
were granted. Through a mix-up OF
circumstances the time limit for max
ing an appeal expired and the petit
toner claims that, inasmuch as he had
left it with his lawyer and it was
through him that the lapse occurred,
his claim should have been allowed. II
is claimed in defense that the matter
had been stIaighteHed out in Minneapo-
lis in the presence of a lawyer, and
that for this reason the lower court
had refused to grant the petition of the
appellant for an appeal.

Of plays with the writing of novels.
Following is an extract:
arnold Bennett has recently thrown
a bomb into the camp OF the dramatists
by declaring that, contrary to accepted
belief, it is much easier TO write a play

why it is easier. in Mr.. Benefits opin-

much shorter than a novel. The chief

Good bye, drugs and pillsl


The perfect laxative has arrived-Kel-

This is not a favored or disguised
castor oil. 1t is just pure castor oil
without taste or odor
kellogg's Tasteless Castor Oil is a
better castor oil than the old evil tast-
ing, evil smelling kind. While none of
the taste remains, none of the good has
been taken out. Kellogg's Tasteless
operates quickly and freely, without
gripping, causes no gas, and does not
turn the stomach. Children take it
easily and retain it
The drug stores have all been sup

"To keep the loose ends of my life

LEAVE OUT THE SUpERFLUOUS
San1e Truth in Assertion That Pres ent Generation Considers Too
 Many "Wants'' as Needs"

A woman who has been observing people and things has come to the conclusion that the expense of living today is largely due to individual tn- diligence. People want 80 much more than they formerly did. or at any rate. if they wanted it befora they often did without it. for expe diency's sake; but now, she says, to want and to have go hand in hand without regard for expediency. This woman says: My idea of the wide spread complaint of the high cost of living Is that people are not temper ate in supplying their three principal wants, namely: food. clothing and shelter. Some people cut down on food and shelter and spend an over abundance on clothing. Others in. dulge themselves in rich foods that are absolutely unnecessary. StiD others like to live in fashionable quarters and neglect their food and shelter. A person to be happy must preserve a balance in all things. One must be temperate with regard tG food, clothing and shelter. Live in q respectable but not ultra-fashtonabte neighborhood; wear standard clothes not the latest Paris fashions; ea good, substantial food, not rich, tasty delicacies that cater only to the pal ate, is my parting advice"
