CAPE COD CANAL TOLLS.

The announcement by the Cape Cod Canal company of the rates which have been fixed for the use of the short cut is of direct interest to all navigation which hes to do with that section of New England. The need of the canal being recognized it has been built by private capital and 1t is but natural that tolls have been fixed which would yield . profit on the out aay Fixing tolls in advance Is e matter which calls for much study. for while 1t may be easy to determine what the income should amount to. and again what the amount Of traflc by water averages. the real difiiouit task Is to so adjust them that the tolla will be an inducement for the oper- ators of vessels in preferences to talk ing the time and chances in rounding the cape.
 Thus tolls are bound to play an inn portant part in the use of the canal and such is fully realized by the conn pany when it declares that they are subject to change. They have been fixed according to tons of. cargo and class of vessel and while 1t furnishes a certain valuable amount of insur- ance, especially in heavy weather, and is an aid to shipping which has been needed for a long period of years. the amount of good which it is now going to do in relieving the shoals and reefs of the cape from their many wrecks depends upon the manner in which the canal fees balance the cost of operation and the danger in sailing the extra sixty miles. Experience will in all probability be the regulator of the toll question and declaration that the prices are subject to change indicates that the company realizes it.

TRAIL, WEEKLY CHILD
Made Strong by vinoI.

So many cases like this are coming to our attention for the benefit of fathers and mothers of weak, sickly. ailing children in this vicinity we pub fish the following letter:
 Mrs. J. P Weatherford. Litchfeld, H., says: We have had an invalid child for the past nine years and un- til we began using vinol, we some times thought there was little hope for him. He would have terrible coughing spells at night. and they would leave him so exhausted. We tried everything. but to no avail. At last some one suggested that we try Vinol, and we noticed a change in him from the very first. The cough- ing spells ceased and he gained in strength right along. We would not be without 1t and would advise par ents who have frail and weakly chil- dren to try vinol."
 This is because the child needed the strengthening cod liver elesnents and the tonic iron that vinoi con tains, No oil, delicious taste.

 These are the days when the owner of an automobile has real pleasure. The country is beautiful, the fruit trees are in bloom and the airs is fill- cd with the perfume of the flowers The apple trees arc laden with blos- soms and it Is not unusual to meet people in teams with their arms filled with huge bouquets that can be had for the gathering on every roadside- New Britain Herald.
 Possibly in Norwich people make the practice of walking out into the oil streets for the purpose of tracking the dirt into their homes so they could make complaint. It is only for a little while that the oil remains sticky. The sand and the macadam surfacing quickly absorbs it and when absorbed it furnishes a surface equal to asphalt. This is the tarvia that is now on Broad and Huntington streets. The department uses a lighter grade of oil for streets that are not hard ened macadam, looser surfacing, for instance. Lighter oil is not so last- ing and has to be repeated. On all new macadam or nacadam in good repair, the tarvia is the thing. MT. Selectman Liiiibridge will be making a mistake if he gives away to com plaint of house tracking of oil. That part is up to the people. Just for a little while advise them to wipe the soles of their shoes when entering buildings. It is not fair to sacrifice the value of a fine street surfacfng to preventable action by the people, New London Globe.
