What Is the Use Of Muslo2

If you could see the quaint old pic
ture that have been looking at you
would discover a use for music that
you did not suspect The picture is
CT a harbor with very blue water sur
rounded by very black hills, and Dor
dered with curious old rcd houses.
There is wharf and some small yes
sells. Up in the sky, which is yellow,
Is a most interesting scene. Three
cherubs, consisting of head, arms and
wings alone are making vigorous
music. One is blowing d horn, an
other holds a singing book and the
third is playing a sort of violin The
effect OF this chorus is to drive a black
devil, with long pointed tail and red
wings, in hcadlong flight through the
sky. Evidently the music is something
he cannot endure
This picture goes with an Old Eng
lish folk song called 'Brixham Town"
sung by those three very delightful
Fuller sisters from England One
verse reads like this:
Now there be creatures three,
As you shall plainly see.
With music can't agree
Upon this very earth
The swine the fool, the ass,
As so we let it pass
And sing o Lord, thy praise
While we have breath
No wonder we humans want to
show that we can sing. We certainly
do not like the idea of being counted
in with the swine, the fool or the ass.
The old song ends mp by encouraging
US all to sing as well as we can.
80 now good friends adieu:
We hope that all OF you
Win pull most strong and true
In strains TO serve the Lord
God prosper rs that we
Like angels may agree
In singing merrily
In time and in accord
Perhaps it was the music inside

The deer limiting in Vermont is
universally poor II is the legiti-
mate outcome OF the terrific slaugh-
ter of these beautiful creatures that
has prevailed for several years.
Vermont may want to eliminate
deer from its woods Ii SO. the eflec-
tive policy has been followed. We
have always contended that live deer
in the Vermont forests were a distinct
material asset and a source OF revenue
in attracting visitors 10 the state, and
that the DAMAGE done to crops. real or
imaginary, was Of minor consequence,
but where the damage could be es-
ta6lished the state should reimburse
the farmer The contrary contention
has prevailed and it has been Death

There are three schools Ct thought
on the deer ISSUED One is represented
by the extremely esthetic Rutland
News aud its ladylike friends WHO
want all the deer preserved to beau,i-
fy our Vermont landscapes and be-
cause It is cruel TO kill the pretty
creatures. Then there are the lruit-
growers and farmers who want the

ranged why not get together a TRAN

An EfectiUe LaxatiUe
For Growing Children
DR.. CaIdwell's Syrup Pepsln Highly
Recommended as a Family
Remedy.

In children the slightest irregularity
Of the bowels has a tendency to dis
turb the entire digestive system, and
unless promptly remedied invites ser
icus illness. The experienced mother
knows that by training her children
to regularity in this respect, aud when
occasion arises administering a mild
laxative, she viii have little need for
the DOCTORS services.
Mrs. Leo Weigand, 1851 Central
Ave. n. s., Pittsburg. Pa. whose two
boys Frank and Joseph, are shown in
the illustration, writes that she has
found DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin u
most effective laxative, not only for
the children but also for herself, and
that she will always keep it in the
house to use when needed. Dr. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin is a combination
of simple. laxative herbs with pepsin
that acts easily and naturally, without
gripping or other pain or discomfort.
1t is pleasant to the taste so that chill
dren like it, and is equally effective on
the strongest constitution.

The renewed attacks or threat Of
attack on girls going home from work
evenings ought to stir the village
trustees to action. The plain facts OF
the case are that the public safety of
the people and particularly The girls
and women is not being properly
looked after. The authorities are too
lenient with the chronic drunkards
and suspicious characters that infest
the streets of Bennington evenings
and it will do some good to try to
clean out the worst offenders. In
clude in the list the public solicitors

FARMERS SHOULD TAKE
CARE IN PRESERVING
SEED Fur NtXI YEAR
SAYS COUNTY AGRICULTURAL
AGENT o. L. FARRlS IN LET.
TIERS TO THEM.
DEMAND FOR SEED TO Be LARGE
After The Corn Is Selected In The
Field, 1t Should be Stored in a Dry
Crib for Observation-Disclosures to Aid
Production.

Stating that the time has now ar.
rived for the selection of sede corn
and great care should be observed in
this all important operation, County
Agricultural Agent o. L. Farris is to.
day mailing out circular letters to the
demonstrators and co-operators in the
county. Mr.. Farris advises that a
large amount of the seed be saved,
since the demand will be large.
Mr.. Farris advises that the stalks
from which the seed corn is taken be
low and the ears low on the stalks.
In case the corn is one of the prolific
varieties, says Mr.. Farris, the number
OF ears on the stalk is of importance
In selecting seed from Meals Paymas-
ter corn only those stalks having two
good ears should be considered for
seed. After the corn is selected in the
field, says Mr.. Farris, it should be
stored in dry crib, where it can be-
come thoroughly dry and later be re-
selected.
The letter concludes with the fol-
lowing "don'ts" Don't select corn
from a diseased stalk; don't select
ears from stalk with suckers; don't
select ears from a stalk near a barren
stalk; don't select ears that are not
well covered with shucks; don't select
ears that are too high on the stalk;
don't select corn that is likely to be
mixed and sell for pure corn: don't
try to fool a purcahser-you have a
reputation to sustain.
The mailing out of these letters is
but another method adopted by Mr..
Farris to aid in the production of bet.
ter quality and quantity of corn pro.
duced. The Better Corn Show was
the first step; the letters on seed are
the second.

Commercial Club Of Nashville Has
Started An Investigation to Deter

More Mules in Reserve.

Carrying nine hundred mules for the
British Army, special train of thirty
cars left the yards of Guyton and Har-
rington, sole contractors for the army,
this morning for Newport News, Va,
at which place the mules will be load
ed on steamers for shipment to Eng
land.
The value of the mules is in the
neighborhood of 100000, and consti-
tute but small percentage of the
total the company has assembled for
shipment from Columbia.
Realizing their loss, the Commercial
Club of Nashville has started an in.
vestigation to determine the reason
for the transfer of the Guyton and Har-
rington business from Nashville to
Columbia. A complete statement of
the conditions was carried in a recent
edition Of The Herald.
On the leased property of the COM
pany, a mile and a half south of Co.
lumbia, over two thousand mules are
assembled awaiting shipment to Eng
land. Many hundred have been locat-
ed there for several weeks, but recent.
Iy five hundred were added to the lot.
Gasolene pumping engines were in
stalled on the property Wednesday for
pumping water to the animals.
Captain Wall and Captain Scott, of
the British Army, continue to inspect
all the animals that are received at
Columbia, the concentration point for
the South, and are making all accept

NAMES ENROLLED.
HEAVIEST IN NINTH DISTRICT
Total Is Heavy, But Is Explained BY
Interest in Last Municipal Election
Large Registration at CuIleoka,
But Light in Supplementary.

Incomplete reports from the supple
mentary registration that closed Tues
day night indicate that but few have
registered during the past three days.
Registration was necessary only for
those who had changed their residence
or had failed to register during the
general registration period.
The heaviest registration was in the
Ninth or Columbia district. At the
Court House certificates were issued
to 122 voters. AT the depot box A
took advantage of the opportunity to
become qualified voters. The total
registration of the Court House box is
1,549, and at the depot, 373 The total
for the Ninth is 1922. This number
is considered very heavy, but is ex-
planned by the interest that was taken
in the municipal registration of last
fall, and the consequent registration.
AT Hampshire, but &c voters were
enrolled on the books of the county.
This number brings the total for that
precinct to 1877. At Theta 1S voters
registered. The total registration at
this place is 255.
Although only 16 registered at Cul-
leoka, 410 names are now on the
books This is one of the heaviest on
record at that box. The large number
is explained by the interest taken in
the special election for justice of the
peace which was held last fall.

CHANCtRY CONFIRMS
SALE Of WAKEFIELD
PLACE TO FLEMING
FIFTEEN THOUSAND is PAID FOR
ONE HUNDRED ACRES AD.
JOINING FLEMING.
PROOF TAKEN IN BISHOP CASE
Time OF Court Through Thursday Is
Expected to be Consumed in Read.
ing of Proof-Many Prominent So
Icitors Appear.

Confirming the sale of the Old War
field place to Stuart Fleming for $15,-
600, Chancery Court, with Chancellor
Bearden presiding, settled down to
work on Tuesday. The term began
on Monday, but only the setting of the
cases took place.
The sale of the Old Warfeld place,
or Roy Porter place, was made some
time ago, but the confirmation of the
chancellor was necessary. The farm
contains 100 acres and is located on
the Pulaski pike, next to the place of
Mr.. Fleming. Since the price paid
was $4,000 the value an acre was
$3.50, which is one of the highest prices
ever paid for farm land in the county.
The remainder of the day was taken
up in hearing proof in the case of the
Maury National Bank against G.. Bish-
op. The reading of the proof is ex-
pected to consume the time OF the
court through Thursday. Adjourn
ment will then be taken until Monday.
to take care of a special session Of the
court at Shelbyville. The decision of
the chancellor is not expected for a
week after the reading of the proof is
finished. The suit seeks to have the
court set aside the transfer of bank
stock and real estate owned by c.
Bishop in Fayetteville from Mr.. Bish,
op to his wife. The transfer is said
to have taken place about the time of
the failure of the Bishop Produce
Co. R. H. L. Rambo, manager Of the
company, is also party in the suit.
