Penalties of Fame Are Debts of All
Existence, With "High Cost of
Living" Significant.

The penalties of fame are the penal
ties of all life, which, when one views
it resolutely and without taking refuge
behind rose-colored spectacles, teens
with contradictions that give deeper
significance to that well-worn phrase,
'the high cost of living" And the
chief part of the expense lies not in
the things-food, clothing, shelter
which are demanded by our material
and bodily needs as human animals,
writes Mary Garden in the New York
World.
Really to live as woman or as man
implies to want something or other
very greatly. And really to want some
thing very greatly means to strive for
that something with inappeasabas
eagerness. And thus to strive means
one Of two thlncs-disappotntmeut; or
seAisvsmeAk and the realization that
in gaining tho one thing score Cd
s4ASm have been missed.
Such n Life and the price We pay
for 1t.

Why Buy Thrift Stamps

There are two compelling reasons
for purchasing them.
There are two fundamental reasons
why every patriotic Vermonter should
purchase U. S. Thrift Stamps and U. S.
War Stamps. They are:
G) The government needs the money
for carrying on the vast war projects in
view.
(2) The stamps are the best security
offered in the world to-day.
Vermonters who have ready money
and do not loan some of it to the gov
eminent are falling short in their patriot
ism. Almost every man, woman and
child in tbs State is able to purchase
thrift stamps.

GA Daughter of The Gods"

There has been much discussion
throughout the county as to whether or
not the William Fox million dollar pro-
duction entitled, "A Daughter of The
Gods" starring Annette Kellerman, the
most talked Of woman in the world,
should be allowed to be shown. This
production was made over year ago
and at that time was presented in New
York at prices up to $500. After this
initial showing the board Of censorship
put ban on same and prohibited this
production to be shown further. From
that date up to last December the owner,
William Fox, has been fighting the case
in the courts and last December was
finally awarded verdict in his favor and
the production is now being played to
packed and iammed houses at every
showing. In some cities children under
16 years of ago have not been allowed.

Faith in Yukon.
(Dawson News.

(Dawson News)
 It is gratifying to that the silver properties the Mayo district have developed sufficient to war rant the Yukon council taking the action which it did last evening in agreeing to the expenditure of $5 900 for immediate road work in that district The road will serve several promising properties, one m particular of which already is taking out ore for haul ing to the nearest steamer landing this winter for shipment to the smeter next season.
 It is not beyond the range of possibility that dsrtct will lead to the opening of large and pros porous permanent silver camp. Some of the richest and most productive silver properties of the world started with no more promise than the Mayo camp, and many best known to the world have nowhere near the general distribution. Other silver prop critics in the Yukon notably on the Twelvemile in- dicate the existence of silver a wide range in this region and possibly these spots but the faint outlines of great camps to come.
 When Gold Commissioner Mackenzie goes to Otta- wa next month he will be able take good news there of these silver properties and of their promise Silver IS in great demand in Allied countries, the same as gold With the silver often runs lead, also much in demand
 The time in this territory when tens of thousands of men remained in the hills all winter prospecting for gold, and when the prospects not half as hatterng for making strike as are the prospects of finding silver now in the Mayo camps or other belts tributary to Dawson If the Mayo or Twelveme silver properties were in Colorado Ne vada Montana Cobalt or Mexico thousands of men would rush in and stake and begin prospecting extensive scale. Why should the miners who in this region not do much here. Miners who have been accustomed to idle away much of their winter time have sphere of winter activity opened them these silver belts Some of the claim owners are preparing to prospect or produce all winter Why cannot others do the same
 Big interests which are looking for fields have promising outlook in these properties. It is seldom they have such favorable chances presented in these fields for taking hold at the very start of what may be developed into big propositions. The plan of some big concerns has been to let the poor man do all the prospecting There is no reason why such should be the case The rich and the large concerns should do as much approximately the poor In fact. the larger the concern the more it has to hope for in the way of fruits from the mining game
 Now is the time to try 1t to a finish The prices of the metal and the rewards never were so great.
