HYDE PARK
A Night in a Strange Land and No Gasoler

n NiBht Ia q oIiau6C Ldnu anu NV udSVlCuC
r. X. Carson, having purchased an
auto. has been giving some of his friends
rides about the country. He is not very
proficient as to the topography of this
part of the universe, so he lost his bear.
ings to great degree last Monday even
ing, when he invited fair damsel to take
a ride with him up to Lake Eden. SO
pleasant was the trip that they progressed
further and everything went lovely until
the road was lost and kit didn't know
where he was at. After travelling miles
and miles and making numerous enqui-
ries, they found they had covered all of
the northern part of Orleans County and
made one or two detours into Canada.
He headed at last for home, the machine
halted and Investigation showed the sup
ply of gasolene had run out. Far from
home and in strange land the couple
found themselves in a peculiar predica-
ment. Night was fast slipping away
and the search for gasolene long and
and of no avail until at last a man was
found who emptied some out of his ma
chine into Carson's. Then the journey
was resumed, but after few miles gas
olene again gave out and so walk was
taken back to the benefactor for another
supply, which was secured and after many
enquiries as to the right road for Hyde
Park, they finally reached home, but not
until long after daylight. Hereafter
Kit" will see that he has a Blue Book
md good supply of gasolene when he
starts on another trip-especially if he |
has one of the fair sex with him.

GET RID OF HUM0RS
AND AVOID SICKNESS

Humors in the blood cause inter-
nal arrangements that affect the
whole system, as well as pimples,
boils and other eruptions, and are
responsible for the readiness with
which many people contract disease.
For forty years Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla has been more successful than
any other medicine in expe1ling
humors and removing their inward
and outward effects. Get Hoods.
No other medicine acts like it.

What has the Burlington Clipper
against Sargent alarms Parsons in that
every time that paper thinks it has a
chance it gives him "slam?" Awhile
ago it was concerning the purchase of a
"$24ODavenport and $40 office chairs for
the executive chamber a Montpelier, and
now it is whine concerning report that
there is to be "a complete renovation of
the executive chamber" We do not know
how true this reports, but it seems to us
that it is small potatoes" to put up a
"kick" because the custodian of the state
house sees ito purchase furniture for the
building. The Clipper man knows that
Mr.. Parsons is competent and faithful
official and that he is no spendthrift. If
he was, the Legislature would not con-
tinue him in the office which he so well
and faithfully fills. Better see that your
harp is tuned correctly. as it is not in
harmony with public sentiment when it
strikes that sort of string.

Stowe, that excellent town of which
Lamoille county is justly proud, is to
celebrate Old Home Week as usual this
year. This will be the fifteenth annual
observation and is, we believe, the only
town in the state that has kept the "fete"
annually since its Inauguration. This
year the event begins "Wednesday, Aug.
18th, and continues through to SUM-
day, the 21st. A program, better than
ever, has been prepared and among the
special features will be a visit from Gov.
Gates on Friday, Aug 20. Stowe never
does anything by 'halves," but goes in
"soul and body" and this occasion will
be well worth attending, not only for the
purpose of having a good time, but to
see how live and prosperous town does
things.
