Manuel Carries, president of the league,

anarchistic organizations had appealed

TREATY IN MANY CHAPTERS.
The Later Chapters Have Not Been Com
pletely Framed.

Paris, May 1.-The treaty Of peace
comprises from 10 to 20 chapters, ae-
cording to Marcel Hutin Of the Echo de
Paris. The preamble is contained in the
first chapter, setting forth the reasons
why the various contracting parties en-
tered the war and mentioning the neces-
sity for the league of nations. The sec
ond chapter deals with the German from
tiers, and the third contains all clauses
connected with alterations Of frontiers
resulting in changes In the sovereignty
Of territory The fourth sets forth the
military, naval and aerial clauses and
the fifth takes up the disposition of the
German colonies, it is said

GET NO NOURISHMENT
FROM FOOD YOU EAT
That's Why You Are Thin and Run
Down, You Can Get Real Food in
Father Johns Medicine.

You may have good appetite and
eat as much food as person in nor
NAL health, but if you are thin and run
down the reason for it is that you get
no nourishment from the food you eat.
A weakened digestive system which does
not take nourishment from the diet will
easily take up the nourishment contained
in Father Johns Medicine, because the
real food elements of this old-fashioned
family medicine are so prepared that
even weakened digestion viii quickly
turn them into solid flesh and tissue.
This enables the system to resume it's
normal functions and a steady gain in
weight and renewed strength follows the
faithful use of Father Johns Medicine.

The Fruit Crop Prospect.

On the heels of a prediction of big
fruit yield there usually comes a spell Of
cold weather. The weather man has been
true to form this year and sent some
frost to various sections during the last
week, but the weather bureau says that
slight damage was done Hence it seems
that the crop has weathered the recent
blow and unless there are more severe
temperatures than have been reported re-
Gently, the Purdue prophecy will stand.
Assuming that there will be plenty of
fruit 1t is well to begin early to think
the best way to get it from the producer
to the consumer. Frequently, in recent
years, retailers have offered such low
prices for apples that the growers would
not take the trouble to bring them to
market, but when the consumer tried to
buy apples he found the price was high.
This has been true also of other fruits.
The grower takes the time and trouble
to produce crops and he is entitled to q
fair price. The consumer offers the mar
ket for such things, and If the price is
made exorbitant he viii not buy. Some
where along the line there must be re-

A RECORD PRODUCTION.
Boys and Girls Clubs and Green Noun
tain Guard Produce 1892 SO in Crops.

The response of individuals in produc.
ton work as encouraged by the boys
and girls club, department of the agri-
cultural extension service of the Univer-
sity of Vermont and the Green Noun
tain Guard OF the state department OF
education has been most satisfactory as
will be noted from summary report of
the state production just issued.
Fourteen thousand nine hundred nine.
ty-nine of those enrolled for work have
rendered a report Of their seasons pro.
duction, The total value of this pro-
duction is s392,s05.5s, giving an aver
age Of over $25 for each producer.
The state report reveals some interest
ing facts. Eight hundred twenty -one
acres of land were titled, yielding crops
valued as follows: Garden, $72, 435. ga;
potatoes, $43,036; corn, S2S,4l020; sugar
beets, $500; miscellaneous crops, S24,-
69043 The value of other materials
made, grown or manufactured is: Chick
ems, $26,983.50; eggs, S7,2l250; pigs,
S20,650s7; calves and cows, S2s,902;
lambs and sheep, $3l93; maple prod
uets, $l4,407; canned products, $l9,346.-

terials, 81 ,53S; handicraft articles, $4,-
9SS; general farm work wages, $780,
$500,
Not until recent years have boys and
girls received the encouragement through
the schools they should have had TO keep
them interested in their home surround
ings. During the past two years every
boy and girl in Vermont has been encour-
aged by his superintendent and teacher
to produce or do other worthwhile
things. During the past year there were
but seven towns in the entire state in
which boys and girls did not enroll for
work through the schools. In some of
these towns no schools were maintained
Many schools had one hundred per cent
enrolment and production.
The interest of the boys and girls has
been aroused in doing some real worth
while things and it Is hard to find the
individual who regrets having done his
or her work. They feel well repaid for
the many hours of strenuous labor per
formed in carrying their work through
to the finish. They realize that their re-
turns have been in proportion to the
thought and labor expended while their
parents and school officials feel that the
returns are in proportion to the encour-
agemeDt and supervision given the indi-
vidual boy or girl.
Every boy and girl Of school age in the
state is to be given the opportunity Of
enrolling at school, during the next few
weeks, to carrying on certain work at
home during this year. 1t is expected
that large enrollments will be received
from the schools where pupils realize
the Importance of doing worthwhile
things and where they have profted by
the work of the past few years and wish
to be factor in making community and
farm life more interesting and profit
able.

Seen in Vermont.

The Castleton correspondent of the
Rutland Herald has given the world
something to think about in the follow
ing item:
philip Ransome and Mortimer Brown,
while on snowshoeing trip Monday
through Frank Browns pasture onto the
old trail, saw four grouse and two fauns.
They tracked the fauns for three hours,
getting within rs feet of one of them. /"
Accepting the item as truthful, we are
filed with pity for the fauns, abruptly
transplanted from the fields of mytholo-
gy to the rigors Of Vermont winter
No chasing nymphs, in disregard Of all
the conventions of polite society, for
them, but snow some two feet deep. No
wine-bibbing and pipe playing for them
but no end of ice and wintry winds, only
a shaggy coat Of hair from their hips to
their hoofs and not even a sweater for
the upper half of their bones We can
see the finish of those fauns.-Hartford

New York, June 9.-One thousand
good paying jobs in tailor shops are
open for one thousand good tailors,
ard no matter where the good tailors
are located, whether on the Pacific

or in France or Germany, so long
as they are members or veterans of

but it seemed as if 1 were doomed
to fail as 1 had failed when l tried
to help Phoebe and Neal to find
each other again. That thought
frightened me so that suddenly l
gave up my policy of being tactful
and clever and leading Phoebe to
ask for help. Instead l learned across
the table and spoke out just what
was in my heart:
phoebe l know there's something
troubling you. Won't you tell me?''
Phoebes mouth frightened, and her
eyes took on the remote look l
had learned to dread in Jim's. She
was going to slam the door of her
mind in my face, l could see that.
"Oh, Phoebe" 1 cried. I'm so
useless. No one needs me. Won't
you let me try to help you?"
Phoebe studied me for a moment,
as if she were sorry for me, as If
she sensed what my partial revela-
tion meant. Then she gave a quick,
reckless laugh, and reverted frankly
to her own troubles.
Il might as we'll tell you. I've
got to tell some one. 1 guess you
can be trusted not to give me away.
Here it is, Anne. I'm in debt. Ter
ribly in debt. And I've no one to

of the money Pat pays Virginia.

She'd been buying too many pretty

Ter. l had a bank account now, Jim
gave me five hundred dollars when

would go to Phoebe, and maybe it
would bring me her friendship. Some
of my relief must have gotten into
my voice as l replied cheerfully:
"Oh, so that's it! Well soon fix
that. I've a bank account now,
Phoebe. and I'll be glad to let you

stark and unhappy.
