Vermont Farms Paw.
{ Morrisvilla Messenger.

k-'A'i AF'N ilI'' -htSSti9 ger.
Those state papers that recently
spoke of the results that Amos J. Eaton
had obtained on a abandoned Vermont
farm in the past twenty years. made
the mistake of locating the property in
Caledonia county instead of Windsor.
The farm is two miles from South Row
alton, not South Ryegate, and Mr..
Eaton represented Royalton in the legis-
lature two years ago.
That he has made a success of farm
ing, the illustrated article printed in
this paper two years ago fully proved.
That article proved that there was
opportunity awaiting young people OH
Vermont farms Just as great as in the
golden(0 west, and mighty sight
more certain.
Mr.. Eaton could barely raise enough
the first year on this farm to support
himself and wife and had to work out
to earn money enough for clothing.
Last year he sold s., 800 in crops from
that same farm.
Better still, he has raised as fine a
family Of boys and girls as there is to
he found in Vermont.

Less than a dozen former representa-
tives were returned to the Vermont
legislature in the elections Tuesday.
This constant rotation in office gives
recognition to more men, but it
does not bring out the highest possible
efficiency in office. \ man who goes
back to the legislature for second or
third term is far better equipped than
the novice in public affairs. We can re-
call several eases where small towns
have given representatives repeated
elections with the result that these
towns have had influence far beyond
that of the city and large town com
munities.

MAx'S ESCAPE.

"a little Dog" said Daddy, "was
one of five beautiful Puppies living in
the Country with a very proud and
happy Mother.
But, sad to tell, it was not very
long before the Mother Dog heard her
Master saying to a Friend of his, 4

here in the Country. You see l have

have to send most of them away
THE Mother Dog knew from the
the Masters voice that something sad
was going to happen-for the Master
wished that he had more room to keep
the beautiful new Puppies. And she
didn't like the Friend because he
never stroked her, nor patted her
Children, but just talked In a gruff
voice that meant bad things she was
sure.

""That's nonsense replied the
Friend. He'll have a good Home with
me and he's such a fine looking Dog
that l shall show him off at the Exhi-
billions and win Prizes with him. I'll
be back again And the man the
Mother Dog disliked went away. Even
the Puppies had trembled when he
had gone near them.
About two weeks later the man
came back. The Master petted the
Mother and said how sorry he was. The
Friend laughed at him for this, as he

Coal Situation a Mystery.
springfield Union.)


Word comes from New York that
the authorities are investigating the
charge of manipulation of coal prices
III that city, and as the transaction is
reported to have an interstate bearing
on prices the possibility of a federal
prosecution is talked of. There is
no ground for a belief as yet that any
thing will come from the affair. The
federal trade commission, which was
supposed to probe situations of this
character, is giving no evidence of
activity III the matter. One strange fac
tor in the situation is the extraordinary
variations of coal prices in different
localities, variations wholly apart from
those ordinarily determined 5y trans
portatlon inequalities. In this respect
there is striking analogy between the
coal and gasoline situations. Nor is this
the only inconsistency to be explained
Much has been said about q coal
shortage at the mines, but the head of
one large company recently reported
that shipments were going forward
at normal rate for this season of the
year. On the whole, the attempt to ex-
onerate the big operators from RESPONSE
blllty for famine prices when there
is no strike IS far from convincing The
usual effort is being made to shift the
blame upon the shoulders of the indie
pendent dealers, who, some saw, CON
troll 20 per cent Of the supply. We are
asked to believe that the tail wags the
dog, for there is no real Independence
IN the anthracite coal industry. The
suspicion is only too strong that in
this, an on former occasions, the in
dependents are playing the operators
game.
The most striking fact in relation,
not to the coal monopoly alone, but to
IAN great combinations, is the absolute
stagnation that seems to have overtaken
the department of justice in the last
few years. Having come into of
flee pledged to bring the trusts TO book,
the present administration seems for
the most part to have entertained no
concern about the matter. But if
1t took seriously its own assurances
that the trusts would perish of them
selves under low tariff, many people
do not and are looking forward to a
time when a department of Justice with
punch - in it will be in evidence.

Dieting is a painful operation by
which a turbulent and high-spirited
appetite is reduced TO a slow walk.
In early life the appetite does not
cause any more trouble than the con
science. No attempt is made to hold
it III check, hence it roams from eorned
beef to lemon sherbet with the utmost
recklessness But after a while the
most rugged appetite begins to get
shiny and threadbare in spots and re
fuses to grapple with food which it
once could pin to the mat three times
out of five. When this occurs, the own
er of the appetite takes it to Il special
ist and is put on a diet which would
not keep the breath Of life in hum
ming bird.
Dieting consists of eating something
which will not talk back to the stom-
ach. 1t is wonderful change to a man
who has been accustomed to wash down
bowl of bread and milk with three

or four cucumber pickles One Of the
greatest surprises which can come in
to robust eater s life is to partake
Of several kinds Of food and find that
1t will not lie down and keep the peace,
as of yore
Some people diet by going without
breakfast and lunch and then eating
everything down to the doilies at din
ner. The most popular method, how
ever, is - 90 without everything that
tastes like food and thus keep the
stomach in a placid and submissive
state. Once in q while some conscien-
tious dieter win be invited out and
partale Of real food, which will prove
such shock to his stomach that moth

calm it down.
Dieting is a good thing for people
who object 10 weighing more than all
