ADJUSTMENTS
KEEP CHILDREN FROM THE PLAY.
One Girls Experience, Which Come
Tomorrow, Is for Grownups.

One Girls Experience is the title of
the drama that comes to the Auditori-
UNI tomorrow, matinee and evening
The play comes with much advance
praise from points where it has been
seen. 1t is styled a play for grownups,
no children being invited or permitted
to see or hear the unfolding of the
story in new and different way. 1t
has to do with the much discussed 4ues
ton of the temptation that corfronts
the girl not satisfied to live and profit
by the good lessons taught her by her
father and mother. The evil tempter,
with his pictured visions of gold and
diamonds, is the fundamental principle
upon which the author has founded his
we'll written and interesting story. II
is the result that makes the ending of
one girls career the unhappy sequel
of this play which bids older person
to its presentation.-Adv.

from your pharmacist about four ounces
Of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast for a
few days and your kidneys will then
act fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon

Musical Treat.

That Mrs. Charlotte Kidder of New
York, daughter Of Mrs. Sarah kidder

der the finest teachers in Europe, in
Guiding Harold Bauer of France and
Nine. Bailey-Apfelbeek of Austria She

HELPS BUY-AT- HOME MOVE.
Delineator Declines Henceforth to Ac-
cept Mail-Order Advertising.

The Buy-atHom movement has
been Joined by a strong ally. Local
merchants aad associations have been
discussing it for years, with more or
less success, and during an cquaI
length Of time out-oftown concerns
have been bidding for local trade
through advertising in the magazines,
which go into the homes, and through
the subsequent distribution of their
owa catalogues direct to Brattleboro
people.
Up TO now, the Buy Home move
ment has had no aid from national
sources. 1t is therefore interesting
news to learn that the Delineator, sold
by the IIuntr Adams Co., local agents
FOR the magazine and for Butterick
patterns, has thrown the full weight OF
its tremendous influence on the side OF
the local merehant-the man who pays
taxes here and helps build up the town
generally. Beginning with the April
issue, on sale March 10, the Delinea
tor eliminates from its columns the an
nouncements of all mail-order houses.
1t is understood that this step has
been taken at loss to the publishers
Of hundreds of thousands of dollars
annually, sacrifice that works in the
interest of the local merchant, who
will directly benefit through the De
lneator's sending customers into hi
store rather than TO distant mail-ordel
houses.

FUNDS FOR COUNTY FARM.
County Delegation Favors Increase of
$4,000 at Westmoreland.

KEENE, \. H., March 20.-The
stature, which has had under coasld-
Grafton for the past few weeks certain
repairs and changes that have been
suggested at the county farm, voted,
last week, to increase the annual APP
preparations for the wears 1917 and
1918 by the sum of $1,000 for each
year. This will make the total sum
to be raised for each of the years
mentioned 5000, as against $40, 200
for the years 1915 and 1916, which in
cluded $4,000 per year for new hos
pital at the farm.
The attention of the delegation was
recently called to the need of certain
repairs and improvements at the farm
and a committee consisting of Messrs.
Mason of Dublin, Robertson of Hins-
dala aAd Spaulding of Keene, was APP
pointed to look into the matter. It
was at first thought that in order to
put in new boiler, evidently needed
at this time to take care of the heat
ing load and to provide steam at in
tervas for domestic or other uses, a
new boiler house would be imperative
And a new boiler will certainly be
absolutely essential when the new hos
pital already begun is finished.
After further investigation, way
has been suggested, IT is understood,
by which a new boiler can be set up
in the building where the boilers now
arc, after making certain changes and
probably providing a new stack or
chimney. The added appropriation of
$1,000 a year for two years should
cover the cost of this and some other
necessary changes
