One of the American weaknesses is
carelessness and some Of our men in
high places are not immune from it.
Samuel Tilden, the great Democratic
governor of New York who missed the
presidency by the narrowest possible
margin, left millions of dollars to
charity, but the beneficiaries of his win
were so indefinitely specified that it
was declared void. The late Horace H.
Lurton of Tennessee was so learned in
the law that he was called to the high
est tribunal in the land as one of the
associate Justices of the United States
Supreme Court. Nevertheless he neg
lected to comply with one Of the
simplest requirements of the law in
writing his own will, which is void in
the District of Columbia, for the rea-
son that two attesting witnesses did
not sign the document.

FOR GOVERNOR?

Nothing has yet developed with re-
Iation to the Republican. gubernatOrial
situation to make possible predic-
ton regarding the outcome of the state
convention Sept 9. In addition to the
three candidates who made announce
ments some time ago, Lieut.. Frank +.
Howe of Bennington, Percival W. Glenn
ent of Rutland and Frederick q. Fleet
wood of Morrisville, another aspirant
has appeared in the person Of Max l..
Powell of Burlington, whose candidacy
was launched at a gathering of his
friends Saturday evening. The doubt
that has existed concerning the atti-
tude of Charles w. Gates has been set
at rest by statement from Mr.. Gates
himself to the effect that he is not a
a candidate and does not want the
nomination but would accept it if it
came to him in the convention. Mr..
Gates certainly will make no effort to
secure delegates for himself, Lieut.
Gov. Howe already has stated positive
Iv that circumstances will not permit
his making an active canvass, and as
far as can be ascertained neither Mr..
Clement nor Mr.. Fleetwood is showing
any pre-convention activity.
This state Of affairs doubtless means
that the Republican state convention
will be a freefor-all affair in which
there will be ample opportunity for
trade and decker with the favorite son
idea an important factor. In view of
the generally accepted belief that the
convention will rcnominate Senator W
=. Dillingham; there is growing doubt
whether the party will think it wise tc
give the gubcrnatorial nomination to .
Republican of Mr. Clement 5 type. II
is also said that Mr.. Gates 5 frank es
pousal of Dillingham; is likely to affect
his chances unfavorably in the north
| eastern part of the state. This trenC
of sentiment should be favorable t.
the candidacy of Mr.. Howe, who al
ready has considerable strength in Ben
| nington county, which is his home, an,
in Windham county, of which he is ;
former resident. Hardly any Powell o

TO HUNT DEADLY PARASITE
British Scientists Will Study 1t In Chi
nese Rivers.

An interesting expedition IS to be
undertaken Immediately by some of
those who took part in recent antarctic
exploration. DR.. f. L. Atkinson, the
navy surgeon who was parasitologist
Of the Scott expedition, accompanied
by Cherry Garrard, will start this
month from London with n small par
~ and travel across northern China i'll
order TO track to its lair minute
creature which is the cause OF Il seri-
Gus malady
1t is supposed that this parasite
spends a part of its life in shellfish
found in the YangtZekiang and other
Chinese rivers. At any rate it is found
in water and attaches itself to those
who work in and about water. Then
it penetrates the skin. and If the at
tack is severe it may cause death. The
discovery of the life history of the par
asite it is hoped, will lead to the dis
covery of cure for the disease caused

the high cost of living.

Grocers who sell whisky and order

husbands know this? No, sir! And at

If my measure is passed the grocer's

How a wild Indian" was converted |
into a sweet and lovable member of |
society by the anti-spanking methods
of Nine. Montessori is told by Mrs. \.
Reno Margulies, principal of the Chill
dren's house, on Washington Heights,
New York
There was one little boy in the
GLASS;" she said, "who wouldn't do any
thing that he was asked to do. All he
wanted to do was to play wild Indian
and cowboy. If he was crossed in any
way he became wild with rage and
stamped his feet, shouting, I'll shoot
you and all the children!' This child
was absolutely Interchangeable at home.
His father brought him to school with
but little confidence in my ability to
control him without the laying on of
hands
do you actually mean that you
will never touch him?' he asked.
Parental Cooperation.
Certainly l said, if you promise
not to punish him at home for one
month, so that you will not spoil the
! effect of my work at the school,
so we made the pact that the child
was not to be spanked for one month.
| At school, when he flew into one of his
! fits of passion and threatened to shoot
us all, I just looked at him in a sur
| prised and grieved way. I'm sorry if
you feel that way about us l would
say and then go away from him.
Yes. of course, at first the other
children laughed when he said the
'smarty' things. They would stop their
work, too, to see what he would do
| next. But l never sCOIded him. Then
one day we We're all going upstairs.
He refused to go too. l left him alone
in the room for awhile Then | return
ed and went about my work paying no
attention to him. Presently I looked
up, and as l caught his eye smile
flooded his face. He looked into my
eyes and loved me.
The Turning Point.
From that moment he has been a
different child. He had suddenly real
lied that we would be friends. Crown
ups to him before this had meant crea-
lures who opposed everything he want
ed to do. He was developing an atti-
tude of hostility toward the whole
world which threatened to ruin his
whole character He would never have
been n happy child if his parents had
continued to whip him.
He is a brilliant child, with a strong
personality. Now he is the leader in
the games which he would not play
before. He has developed a remarka.
BILE feeling for music and rhythm and
fits about in the dances like a happy
butterfly"
There are other stories of the remark
