Last Sunday evening at the Methodist
Episcopal church was held the first union
Brotherhood meeting of the season, when
large and representative audience lis
tened TO an address by Mrs Annette NJ
Parmalee of Enosburg Falls, who spoke
on the temper ance question, with partic-
ular reference to the Perry prohibition
bill, and referendum, which comes before
the voters at the coming March meeting.
Mrs. Parmalee, who is not a stranger
to Morrisville people, was introduced by
Clement F. Smith of Morrisvile, who re-
ferred briefly to Mrs. Parmalee's work in
Vermont as a reformer.
Mrs. Parmalee confined her remarks
more especially to the claims of the local
option supporter, that there was a
place for alcohol in the sick room and
quoted many prominent authorities to
prove the contrary. Her address was a
severe arraignment of the liquor traffic
and her subject was handled in digni-
fed and convincing manner.
The Methodist church chorus choir,
with Miss Lula Towne at the pipe organ,
rendered two anthems and short praise
service, led by Rev. w. T. Best, preceded
the address. The scripture lesson was
read by Rev. w. E. Baker of the Congre-
gational church. Rev. Mr.. Bennett of
the Advent church offered prayer and the
benediction was pronounced by Rev. r.
D. Cranmer of the Universalst church.

Acts of Parliament.

The wording of the acts of p0rlia-
ment today shows practically the ex-
act same determination to rule by rep
the old, purely Saxon days.
BE it enacted" the parliamentary
law reads, "by the kings most excel
lent majesty, by and with advice and
consent of the lords spiritual and tenn
poral and common, in this present par
lament assembled"
There is something even more royal
and dominant in that phrase by and
with the consent Of the members of
the two houses of parliament than
would seem to lie even in 1.-The kings
most excellent majesty" - Woman's,

Swans For the Tahle.

The swan AZ IL dinner dish has been
seen on English tables within compare
lively recent times. "Up tilla century
or so ago" according to f. w. Hack
wood, Swans were prepared for the
table in and around Norwich. The
young birds were put up to fatten in
August, given as much barley as they
would eat, and by November they were
in prime condition. If kept longer they
began to fall off, losing flesh and fat
and the meat becoming darker in color
The corporation of Norwich still main
tains its ancient swannery at st. Hell
ems swan pit ana sells off few of the
fatted birds every Christmas at 2
guineas each. London Chronicle.

A Handsome Proposition
From the Rutland Herald

The handsome gift of Mr.. and Mrs.
Clement F. Smith of Morrisville, by
which they offer their home as an hospi-
tai, is something which directs attention
to very pleasant tendency. Vermontis
full of large houses, built as homes for
large families. Many of them are not
used to anything like their full capacity.
Others are closed a larger part of the
year. How much better to devote empty
homes and idle houses to the useful
cause and a great work than to allow
them to remain vacant.
