Rank Abuse of Highways.
(St. Adams Messenger

The present writer recently saw farm
tractor equipped with treads on its big
wheels making its way over some st.
Adams streets. Every foot of progress
was marked by cut into the roadbed to
depth of from an eight of an inch to
two inches or more. 1t is strange that
anyone should go onto the highways
without first removing the treads and it
is stranger yet that the state or any
municipality would tolerate such action.
The tractor was without any license
number, yet it was a vehicle propelled
under its own power, doing on one jour
ney more damage to the roadbed than a
hundred automobiles would do in an en-
tire season. Tractors ought not to have
to be licensed, but those who will drive
them over our streets and highways
without removing the damaging treads
ought to be brought to time in some way
or other.

A Rare Reunion.
BARRE Times.)

What a flood of memories must have
come to the minds of those eight known
survivors of Company G, 18th Vermont
infantry, who gathered in Bellows Falls
one day this week to hold their fiftieth
reunion in the place where they eonse-
Grated their lives to the service of their
country back in the days of 1862
Out of the 1917 who served in that com
pany during three years of Civil war
history only those eight are known to be
living. As those old comrades met and
grasped each others hands there must
have been surcharge of emotion that
few men nowadays are privileged to ex-
perience.

Scents Act "a TonIes,

According to the latest medical die.
tum the man or woman who delights
In perfumes is well-advised TO indulge
this taste, providing they don't uss
heavy odors. It seems that eau de
Cologne, and any fresh flower scent
has slightly stimulating effect upon
people, and In the early spring the use
of perfume helps one to throw off the
feeling of lassltude that is so often a
characteristic of the season. In the
summer, too, or whenever one Is tired,
the reJuvenating effect of bath pleas
antly perfumed is marked.

There is beauty In bells which Is
fast being lost to the modern world.
Since we cannot keep them in use as
they were hundreds OF years ago, we
must try to keep up an interest in
those which remain, and learn what
ties Of the Middle ages. See how many
references to bells can be found In

which stands out and which we all
should know, "The Bells" by Edgar

Charlie White Lost Lightweight HOnOrs
 by Carelessness

Benton Harbor, Mich, July G. Charlie White of Chicago, six times contender for the worlds lightweight boxing championship realized today that he lost his greatest opportunity to win the title through sheer care lessness. Fighting the best battle of his career, the Chicago lightweight yesterday afternoon completely out fought Benny Leonard, the champion, in five of the first eight rounds of the championship match, only to be knocked out in the ninth when he rushed out of his corner with his guard down and gave Leonard the opening he had been seeking.
 White had been growing stronger as the bout progressed while Leon ard apparently was becoming tired and feeling the effects of Whites vicious left hooks. In the fifth round the challenger knocked Leonard in- to the ropes and half way of the ring, and in the sixth and seventh fought the champion so furiopsly that it be- gan to look af if there were a possi- bility of scoring knockout
 In the ninth with the fight appar- ently won, White rushed madly from his corner. Leonard, coming out slowly, suddenly stepped forward like a flash, and shot left hook to the peak of Whites chin. The Chi cagoan's leg flew from under him as if he had touched an electric wire, but instead of taking count of nine in order to rest, White leaped to his feet only to be floored for the second time. How many times he was knock ed down was a question in dispute today as the champion landed so swiftly with six inches punches that it was almost impossible to keep track of them. Ringsiders agreed that White went down five times.
 White declared today that he could have claimed the champion ship on a foul in the fifth round when Leonard's seconds went to his aid in pushing him back into the ring. This is not allowed, but White asserted that he had no desire to claim any fouls and wanted to win by a knock out if possible.
 1t was the first time White had ever been knocked out and he has been engaged in 145 fights. Leonard
