His Familiar

The man was getting married,
At his side, unseen by anyone.
stood his Familiar, a stern-vis
aged, indomitable spirit. He had
always ruled the man he always
would. Nor marriage, nor love,
nor woman's wiles should Dust
the Familiar from his long-held
throne. And so it was. Turnout
his married life, the man was
bound in the memorable thraldom
Of his Familiar. Strive as he
might. he could not break the
gives. The wife of his bosom
could not overpower the tyrant.
Yet did she not repine at this.
For" said her canny feminine
prescience, that Familiar shall
yet be my salvation, my protect
or and strength" And when the
time came that the man was tired
of his wife, that his fancy was
taken by a fairer face, a younger
charm, and he would fain fly to
her and bask always in her smiles,
then did his Familiar stand by his
side and forbid this thing. Then
was the wife's foresight proved
and she was saved all jealousy
shame or hurt pride. And the
fair young siren wept bitterly for
that her pains were naught be-
cause of the mans Familiar.
And who was the Familiar? Hon
or? Nay, not so. Loyalty? Vir-
tue? None of these. His name
was it.-Carolyn Wells in

is being more warmly commended
than this feature, and | trust that
we shall be able to continue until
there are no deserving cases in this
class untreated in our state"
During the month the secretary
has sent out TO the overseers of the
poor in the cities and towns main
tanning poorhouses a letter calling
their attention to section 1915 of the
general laws, which reads as follows
"Sec. 1915 1t shall be unlawful to
keep any dependent child in any
poorhouse, except in cases of emer-
gency, for 4 period not to exceed
80 days"
The legislature, in it's Wisdom, mas
declared against the practice of
maintaining dependent children in
poorhouses of the state and it has
been found, in some instances, that
the children are not kept separate
from the adult population of the in
stitution and they are, of necessity,
compelled to live under conditions
and in an environment which depriv-
es them of their natural right of a
fair opportunity to grow into good
manhood and womanhood. That
every boy and girl, whether rich OF
poor, shall have, so far as the state
is concerned, an equal opportunity
and a fair chance of meeting and
solving the problems of life, l am
directed by the board to ask for your
cooperation and a compliance with
the section above referred to.

SUGAR STATISTICS
Price in the United States Lower
than Elsewhere


Montpelier, Sept. 4-The total
sugar consumption in the United
States for 1917-18 was $685. ,582 900
pounds. In Great Britain the total
consumption for 1916 amounted to
3,131, 10000 pounds. In France
for the same period it was 1,141, ,242,-
900 pounds, in Italy, 100000
pounds; while in Canada, for the
year ending March 81, 1917, the total
amount of sugar consumed was 704,-
100000 pounds.
The wholesale cost of sugar per
hundred pounds on May 1st was
S807 in Canada, $12.59 in England,
$12.28 in France and $26.30 in Italy,
as compared with $3.50 in this coun-
try. The average wholesale cost per
hundred pounds in the Allied coun-
tries was S12.52 Ia, so that if the
United States had paid the same
price for sugar as that paid by the
Allied countries, our national sugar
bill would have been increased by
$429 AIS, 9,864.50.
In Sweden, sugar is now selling at
ID cents a pound, Spain at 10 cents,
Brazil at 25 cents, Portugal at 214
cents and India at ID cents.
The present retail price of sugar
in the United States is s 1-2 to 10
cents per pound.

FINED $3.50 FOR
BOGUS CHECK WORK
Former St. Johnsbury Man Arrested
in Bellows Falls

Bellows Falls, Sept. IA. E. But
terfeld of Rutland, formerly of Bel
lows Falls, was before the municipal
court in Bellows Falls today on the
charge of passing worthless checks.
He was fined $3.50 and costs,
amounting to about $25, which he is
arranging to pay.
Butterield, who is about Is years
old and formerly lived in St. Johns
bury, worked in Bellows Falls some
time and was married here about six
weeks ago. While working here he
drew several checks on the First Ma
tional bank of st. Johnsbury rang
ing from 81 to SIS, which were
cashed by different parties. Before
he was discovered he married and
left town.
State's Attorney William r. Daley
of Brattleboro had been in search of
him for some time, having issued a
warrant for his arrest for passing a
check for SO to the Washington
Candy company of Bellows Falls
Butterfeld bought ice cream and
candy to the amount of 85 cents and
received $9.15 in change. He was
located in Rutland, where it was
found that he had passed two more
checks of the same nature, but on
those Butterfield had paid back the
money.
After the hearing Butterfeld told
the court he would make arrange
ments to pay the money back to the
parties.
