ject of the morning sermon was
Protection of the Home +" Text.
Deut. 22:S: when thou buildest a
new house, then thou shalt make a
battlement for thy roof" etc. This is
subject of great Importance to the
righteous in its spiritual applica-
ton, and significance. First, place
around the home the battlement of
parental control. II you wish to send
out into the world we'll trained and
thoroughly disciplined children,
there must be parental control exert
ed in the home. These should be
harmony between the parents in re-
CARDS to the methods used. This
control should begin in the cradle
children, the most sacred charges
parents can fall heir to. Therefore,
resolve to present them to the world
as finished beings. The second pro-
lection to the home is the battle
ment of educational qualifications,
equip your children for life; give
them all the advantages of the
School system, supplemented by the
teaching of the Bible truths at
mothers knee. Safeguard them by
the battlement of family worship In
the home there should be the wor-
shipful spirit. This spirit can be
evinced either individually or col
lectively. Draw around the home
these projections, send out into the
world souls who will be blessing
and shed a sweet influence. These
influences are never eradicated, ev-
en- when reason is dethroned, the
poor benighted mind will turn to
home and home associations. God |
will call each one to give an account |
of the suls he has given Him for not |
throwing around them the safe |
guards of these battlements.

Recruiting laborers in Florida for
Northern industries goes merrily on,
and it is feared that serious situa-
ton may develop in some sections
owing to the scarcity of labor from
this cause. There is no necessity for
any one in this section to seek en-
ployment in the North. Polk coun-
try's tremendous road contracts will
employ all available labor for the
next fourteen months. If you don't
want job offered you, stay out of
Polk.

North Adams is rightfully tickled be-
cause the Keith company is TO build an
addition to its plant in that city that
will enable an increase in output of
between 240Aand 500 pairs of shoes a
week and give employment to about
seventy additional hands. The Tun-
mel City is to be congratulated over
the success of the Keith company
There have been so many failures in
attempts to establish shoe manufactur-
ing plants outside of the big shoe
towns like Brockton that the company
received none too much encourage
ment in the beginning The company
was organized with local capital and
for this reason its progress is all the
more gratifying

A Great American

,At a time when so much is being
said about Americanism it is pleasant
10 contemplate the career of true
and great American, James j. Hill
whose death took place Monday at his
home in st. Paul, MINI.
Mr.. Hill had been recognized for
years as one of Americas leading bust
ness men and builders and was often
alluded to as the empire builder OF
the Northwest. AS a railroad builder
and developer Of that part OF the cou-
try he had no peer. lie was also ex-
tensiyely interested in water transpor-
tation On the great lakes and Pacific
ocean, and was one of the best known
men among the bankers OF the count
ry.
Mr.. Hill was a poor boy He died a
millionaire, but his fortune was accum.
ulated honorably, in ways that directly
and largely benefited thousands OF
other men and the country as a whole.
He was a man of large foresight and
great executive ability, of indomitable
will and untiring energy. He devel
oped and furthered gigantic enter
prises the fruits of which were shared
by the public. Other men have accum-
ulated larger fortunes, but few ii any
have ever attained a higher standing
in the business world and in the esti
nation OF their fellow citizens. lie
reaped large returns from his endeay
ors, but ii was not for fame or personal
| wealth that he labored. He was built
on big scale, he enjoyed doing bis
| things, and he did them in a way that
brought to him not only large materia
| rewards, but deserved prominence II
| the business world and a warm place
in the hearts of his fellow citizens o.
all classes and conditions in life.
! His career was as clean and honor
able as it was conspicuous and success
iul. James j. Hill was an upright man
| In his great enterprises he wronged NJ
man and no community, He was ;
| developer a leader in business and Il
public opinion When he expresses
himself on any subject his views were
respected, for the people of the count
ny had come to know him as one Ell
titled to all confidence and respect.
Mr. Hill was great man and goot
man, His death is loss to the count
ry and is so recognized from the Allan
tic to the Pacific. To but few is giyel
the ability to accomplish such thing
as he accomplished, but his life is al
example that the young men of tn
country may well study and emulate
1t rested upon the solid foundation o
character. --Brattleboro Reformer.

MUSK IN THE RAW.
II Looks Much Like Axle Grease, but
Has Worse Odor.

Musk in the raw looks n good deal
Ike axle grease and smells worse. The
popular notion that the musk of com.
merce is obtained from the muskrat
Is Il mistake.
There is obtained a somewhat SINH
lar perfume from the muSkrat but
most of the supply comes from the
musk deer, creature that is carefully
reared in India for the sake Of the Sc
erection. The secretion is shipped in
the crude state and is used not only
In the manufacture of the liquid per
fume sold as musk, hut also in very
small quantities to give strength and
staying power to many perfumes made
from the essential oils Of flowers.
Curiously enough, the blossoms Of
two native plants have noticeably
musky odor, One is the smull yellow
blossom of a creeping vine known as
the musk plant Its olor is marked
and is countcrfcicd in the commercial
perfume called musk. The other is the
hloodroot The pure white blossom of
that early spring plant has distinct
though delicate musky odor,

Fraudulent Advertising

In recent opinion, Justice Nc
Kenna, of the United States supreme
court, draws a definite and unmistak-
able line between honest and dishon-
est advertising.
In effect, he holds that it is per
fectly legitimate for an advertise: to
extol, to 'pufi," Oh article or COM
modify, providing that such praise is
confined to merits or qualities actual
ly possessed by such article. But
when merits are conjured up, invent
ed; when an article is accorded quail
tiles and values which it does not
have, and when such merits or quail
tiles are ascribed to the article in or
der to lure the prospective purchaser
with an expectation Of receiving more
than he pays for, then the element of
false pretence enters and such adyer-
Using is fraudulent.
A merchant is not, by this ruling,
| restricted in his liberty to describe,
even with enthusiasm, the attractive
qualities or merits of goods; he must
not, however, claim for them quail
| ties or merits which they do not have.
| This decision places the whole con
fused subject OF what is honest and
what is dishonest in advertising on a
basis of common sense. 1t sums up
the matter in this simple way: If you
| tell the truth about the thing you
advertise, even though you puff
the merits it possesses, your adver-
Using is legitimate and honest. #
YOU lie about the thing you advertise,
even though it should be worth the
price you charge for it, your adyer-
Using is not legitimate, not honest.
OF course no reputable advertiser
lies in his advertising. simply because
he is not liar does not lie incident
ally, casually or accidentally, either in
his private or in his business life. The
disieputable advertiser may, once or
twice succeed in "burgling" his way
into the advertising columns of re-
| putable newspaper, and in lying to its
readers about his goods. But he
meets with prompt rejectment when
discovered, and the door is closed to
him thereafter
The point about this decision is
that an advertiser need not be timid
about praising a good thiug-for hC
will not break any law unless he
makes false representations-B rattle

PRECIOUS PETROLEUM.

How much petroleum there IS in the

Franklin * Lane in AN article Oh

900 barrels a year it will soon be ex-
hausted, for the geological surveys

That it was necessary to send a
child who had committed no fault to
the State Industrial school because it
was alleged that she did not have
proper home, is extremely uniortu-
nate and those who instituted the pro-
ceedings which brought about that re-
suit are not wholly to be congratulate
ed. The sending Of child to penal
institution leaves q blemish that viii
never be obliterated, and unless such
a child is incorrigible such step
should not be taken There is plenty
OF law to force parents to care for
their children properly and anything
which will affect a child's future or
attach stigma to its name should be
carefully avoided Judgment should
be mixed with zeal in social work, and
| bigoted zeal without judgment will
wreck any worthy cause. II is also APP
parent that some provision should he
made by the state for a home to be
used in cases like the one under con
sideration.- Montpelier Argus.
Here is a case wherein the state is
Furnishing q child because the little one
happens to be unfortunate, No matter
how much we may congratulate our
selves on the excellent management of
our industrial school, the fact remains
that the school is a penal institution,
established and conducted for the pur-
pose OF restraining and educating the
criminaly DISPOSED and incorrigible
youth Of the state, That the people OF
Vermont should permit the continu
ance OF condition under which there
is no other recourse but to condemn
homeless children to an association
with such inmates as compose the
larger portion OF those sent to Vergen

humanity but also upon our common

Keep the Town Clean.

A clean town attracts attention
whenever and wherever it is seen.
A dirty one catches the public eye
in even less time.
When the streets and alleys and
yards and vacant lots in a town are
clean and sanitary, it bespeaks a
like condition on the part of the
residents with regard to their per-
sonal habits.
The Lord loves clean man or
woman, and the devil worships a
dirty one. Which do you prefer? :?
If each person in this town
would use just little more energy

this one of the cleanest spots in
the country and our reputation
would grow apace.
