The Central Vermont railroad might
keep watchful eye on the experiment
of the New York. New Haven & Hart
ford railroad which has just begun ~
ing a gasoline-driven railroad car be
tween New Haven and Derby, Conn,
making two trips a day. 1t is believed
il will go far toward solving the problem
of economical passenger service on
branch lines. The car in use was de-
signed to serve short lines from five TO
forty miles in length it provides seating
accommodations for about 80 passen-
gers. can carry mail and parcel post and
one man can serve as operator and
conductor. 1t is said this gasoline
driven rail car calls for an initial in
vestment of no more than S1G,700 and
it is estimated that one can pay for it
self within a year. Two others will be
put in operation on other lines of this
road within a few days.

MOTHERS METHODS.

At last here is one expert in household
economies telling her domestic science
pupils to go home and learn something
Of the business of homc-making from the
person who invented it--MOthcr.
Don't tell mother she is all wrong in
her methods of housekeeping" Miss
Rosa of the University of Missouri says
ito her classes. '"Study her methods and
get experience no school can offer"
1t is out of the combined experience
Of all mothers that the science of home
economies has been assembled. Many
of them do not speak it's language but
most of them practice its principles very
successfully, from economy in purchas-
ing to providing meals which agree
With the family-the well-balanced RAJ
tion-and dovetailing jobs for speed and
efficiency.
Mother does all these things not in
the wclI-crdered surroundings of an in

duction and profit, even the carrying on
of routine business, all are limited by
the uuantity~of capital available.
Capital is-one of the two indispensable
requisites, labor being the other. But
labor is usually available more hber-
ally than capital.
The lack of capital has been one of the
ereatest obstacles to the revival of bust
ness for the past year and half, There
may have been plenty of capital in the
country. but business men could not get
it. They were hampered by the extreme
caution of bankers and the exaction OF
high interest rates. The result was as
il would be if farmer tried to farm
without fertilizer.
The most promising feature of the
present situation is that this obstacle is
vanishing. Money rates have gone down,
and are going still further. Money Is
available, on tolerable terms again, and
in large quantities. for legitimate en-
terprise. The main thing needed now Is
the spirit of enterprise-which has been
much dampened of late-to seize this
new opportunity as it appears.

Named.

The Chinaman could speak but little
English and the Englishman could speak
no Chinese; nevertheless, the dinner went
off agreeably.
There was one dish that pleased the
EngliShman. 1t was rich stew of on
ions, pork. mushrooms. and a dark. ten
der. well-havored meat that tasted like
duck.
The Fnglishman ate heartily of this
stew. Then he closed his eyes. lifted
his hands and shook his head with an air
of ecstacy.
After this compliment to the dish. he
said interrogatively; "Quack, quack?'
NO. no." said the Chinaman, Bow
wow The Christian Evangelist.

Dancing Types.

The slick haired youth with the high
wasted coat who sells ice-cream sodas
daytimes but is a dancing humdinger at
night--a regular toddling demon.
The brunette with bobbed hair and
fancy open-work stockings. Dances with
all the boys and makes each one think
he's the only fly on the fiy-paper as far as
she is concerned.
The plump iii blonde who appears to
be happily ignorant of the fact that her
skirt is too tight across the hips.
The good-looking, 22o-pound travelling
salesman who is showing everybody how
light fat man can be on his feet.
The blase young thing who hugs her
partner round the neck and cuddles her
ear against his cigar pocket. She knows
she dances diyineIy.
The middle-aged man who has been TAX
ing a few dancing lessons to get onto the
new steps and takes fox trOt as seriously
as he would a funeral.
The spindle-legged fiapper whose ear
puffs worry her almost TO death.
The stout lady who Just adores dancing
and who should have given 1t up about -
years ago. She beams on everybody as a
prospective partner.

Somebody's Bound to Guess Right
(St. Adams Messenger.)

Over half dozen names are being men
toned in connection with the 1922 govern
orship campaign. Perhaps If those ''mcn-
toned" were consulted the field would
narrow itself materially. Mentioning
is the great indoor game in Vermont news
paper offices. And it is a game that has
its good points. at that.

The Flight of Fancy.

The flight of Fancy is a Fairy
That dances by on slim tip-toe;
She filings a hayward kiss and airy,
She brushes by like Aeetest doe.
The wood 5 her home-the river s band
Tho Wedding ring that holds her hand.
The night her watch-thc stars her guard
And she the moonlight 5 own reward.
The silent moonlit night she graces
On meadow banks her foot she places.
Ful many a pleasant wish to think,
Then goes to sleep by brooklet s brink.
Asleep a smile still crowns her lips,
AZ dainty as her finger tips.
The Dawn : her cift-the fair unknown
A melody she made her own.

Dummcrston Hill

Baalmann's Gas-Tablets are prepared
especially for stomach gas, and particu-
larry for all the bad effects coming from
gas pressure
That empty, gone and gnawing feel
ing at the pit of your stomach will dis
appear, that anxious and nervous feel
ing with heart palpitation will vanish,
and you will once more be able to take
a deep breath, so often prevented by gas
pressing against your heart and chest.
Your limbs. arms and fingers won t
feel cold and go to sleep, because Baal-
mann's Gas-Tablets prevent gas inter-
fering with the circulation; that intense
tlrowsiness and sleepy feeling after din
ner will soon be replaced by a desire for
some form of entertainment. Your dis
tended stomach will reduce by inches. be-

why the smile goes off the countenanee OF

something to consider seriously, especially
