1t is refreshing to read in the Man
chester Union that the Baldwin apple is
coming back. AS the Union says there
is no comparison in the taste of the
brilliant colored Oregon apples and less
highly colored Baldwin apples in New
England.
Ours are juciest and sweetest. They
are still credit to the apples (which
Loammi Baldwin found growing wild
in the woods of Wilmington, Massa-
chusetts, years before the outbreak of
the Revolution. He cuts scions from
this wild apple tree, grated some trees
of his own, and in a few years sur
prised his neighbors with crop of red
apples of excellent flavor and remark
able keeping qualities.
His name was given the apple by
common consent and as a matter Of
course when the original tree died, the
site was marked by a monument. y

For Safer Ocean Travel.

There has been more or less hest
fancy upon the part of many people
about taking an ocean voyage since
the accidents to the Titanic and the
Empress of Ireland, and the opinion
has prevailed that faulty construction
of steamships may have had more or
less to do with these terrible accidents.
This may or may not be so, but there is
no doubt that too much care cannot be
exercised in the building of ocean pas
senger vessels. One of the latest of
these giant vessels seems to have
profited by all that is modern in con-
struction.
This vessel, according to the
Scientific American, is built with an in
ner skin, So called, though in reality
it Offers more rather than less pro-
lection than that term usually implies.
Instead of having her coal bunkers
arranged transversely across the ship,
these are built longitudinally, and are
designed to give special protection to
the Vulnerable boiler spaces or mid
ship section. The inner wall of hel
coal bunkers is no less than Is feet
from the outer skin and rises vel
above the water line. In other words,
the Storstad, in order to flood the
boiler compartments of this --latest
steamship, would have needed not
merely to rip open the outer skin as
in the case of the Empress, but actu-
ally to cut through her for a distance
of Is feet or more. The crumpleC
condition of the Storstad's bow, as
shown in pictures, suggests the great
improbability that she cut into the
Empress below the water line even tC
much less such a distance.
1t is apparent that steamships can be
made much safer, and internationa
laws should make it obligatory on al
contractors TO do so.- Montpelier

HOW TO GET STRENGTH

after any sickness Is purely matter Of
nourishment, whether the attack was
an ordinary cold or severe illness; the
weakened forces cannot repulse disease
germs, and this is why a relapse is so
often fatal or why chronic weakness often
follows sickness.
Restoring strength to millions of people
for forty years has proven the real need
for taking SCOTS Emulsion after any
sickness; nothing equals nothing
compares with it. Its pure, medicinal
nourishment, free from alcohol or opiates,
promptly creates rich blood, strengthens
The nerves and lungs to avert tuberculosis.

wheat at $3.50 a bushel. rice at $12

with some amusement, that, although
there was good deal of complaint
about the high cost of living, the peo-
pie carted these prepared foods home
so fast that the manufacturers could
hardly supply the demand.

That three service cars could be
thrown down an embankment and two
passenger coaches could be derailed
without inficting fatal or even serious
injuries on the occupants is a matter
for no small wonder and for sincere con-
graduation as well. The wreck of the
Central Vermont northbound train in the
town of Braintree last Sunday morning
was marvel.i in its comparative freedom
from serious results to the passengers
and trainmen; and the rather heavy
property loss in the breaking up of the
baggage, the express and the postal cars
and damage to the passenger coaches
and to the track is lost sight of in the
contemplation of the escape of human
lives. There We're considerably more
than 100 lives in jeopardy as the cars
left the iron ard some of the PEG. lie
