PUBLISHERS, BURLINGTON, Vt. THE GLOBE We are still in the field and quite busy. Our prices all rivals make dizzy. We are foolish, we knoiv, but not crazy, And our customers can't say we're lazy. We still have the nerve their interests to serve, And study their pockets as all do observe.

If you want nobby clothing and something that's neat Examine our stock at the head of Church Street, Where you will find an elegant line of Men's, Youths', Boys' and Children's CLOTHING which are permitted by the modern system of fire insurance, can not fail to be a great temptation to holders of property whose assessed value can not be realized in the market. The fact that there are thousands of policy holders who would unquestionably prefer to see certain property on their hands in ashes rather than standing, amounts to something as prescriptive evidence in cases where no cause can be assigned for the destruction of such property by fire. It is an ugly charge to make against a man, that he is privy to the destruction of his own property for the sake of securing the insurance money upon it, and, of course, the fire insurance companies hesitate about preferring such a charge but, nevertheless, some facts point strongly to this conclusion. One or two such facts should be mentioned. It is the exception, rather than the rule, for a comparatively worthless piece of property that is not insured to be destroyed by fire.

Why is it that one hardly ever finds an old rookery either in the country or the city, that is not insured, and heavily insured It looks as though the owner suspected that the building hi Ight, 'possibly, at some time In all cuts and colors.

Red Tape Extraordinary. Detroit Free Press.1 The beauty of our postal arrangements is well shown by the following incident A man wanted a letter delivered immediately, and he put a ten-cent special delivery stamp on it, but he forgot the two-cent postage stamp. The letter was addressed to a man in New Haven. The idiotic postmaster in that town, or perhaps we should say the dutiful postmaster, who oleyed the idiotic regulations, instead of delivering the letter and collecting the two cents, wrote to the sender of the letter and told him that two cents more were required before it could be delivered. The writer spent a two-cent stamp in sending the missing two cents to the New Haven postmaster, and after nearly a week being lost the letter was at last delivered.

Anything more utterly stupid than this system of red tape could hardly be imagined. The Largest Telescope In tha World. The largest refracting telescope in the world is now in process of construction in the modest shop of Alvan Clark, an eminent telescope maker at Cambridgeport, Mass. It is to be placed in the Lick observatory on the peak of Mt. Hamilton and the two disks of glass that go to form the lens costs $25,000 each.

The disks were cast in Paris, the order having been given five years ago, but the failures were so numerous that they were not delivered until last September. When finished the lens will lie tliirty inches in diameter, six inches larger the grt-at Russian telescope. Stunr the lower of the instrument may be gained i out the statement recently nude bv an astronomer, that gazing at the n.oon, miles away, that orb by ijjis tele-cope will be brought to within less than one hundred miles from the eye of the be holder. Not Symptom, but the Disease. It would seem to a trutli all, and especially by professors ot the heulin art, thai to remove the disease, not to alleviate its sjmptonis, be the cniel aim of medication.

Yet in how many instances do we see this truth admitted in theory, ignored in practice. The reason that IIotei terV Stomach Hitters is successful in so many cases, :1 which remedies previously tried were inadequate to cope, is attributable to the tact that it is a medicine which reaches and removes the causes of the various ma'adies to which it is adapted, indigestion, fever and ague. 1 ver complaint, (rout, rheumatism, disorder ol the bowels, urinary affections and other maladies are not palliated merely, but rooted out by it.

It is to Tour Interest to bear in mind that one Benson's Capcine Plaster is worth a dozen of any other porous laster. Benson's plasters are a genuine med-cinal article, endorsed and used by the medical profession from Maine to California.

They cure in a few hours ailments which no others will even relieve. Cheap and worthless imitations are sold by dealers who care more for large profits on trash then they do for the sweets of an approving conscience. Beware of them, and of the "Capucin," "Cap-8 W' "Capsicine" and "Capsicum" plasters which they sell to the unwary, ese names are nothing but misleading variations on the name "Capcine." Note the difference, go to reputable druggists, and you will not be deceived. The genuine Benson's has the "Three seals" trademark and the word "Capcine', cut In the centre. or other, come to an unfortunate end; and in case of so great a calamity, he is desirous to lay up for himself as much material consolatiou as possible.

Furthermore, property of this character is apt to be much more heavily insured than other property, according to their rel ative values. This also seems to smack of a special providence. It is not likely that a shrewd man will pay for long periods heavy insurance rates on an old tinder- box, because he values it so highly. There is a good deal of the same spirit manifest ed here, as is manifested by the heirs presumptive in tenderly caring for and cherishing their rich and aged relatives. Another fact specific and pertinent, is afforded by the state of affairs in New Hampshire, since the retirement of the fire insurance companies from that State, under the "valued policy" law.

Since the people of New Hampshire have been unable to pro cure insurance, the number of fires has decreased by more than one-half. This fact has an exceedingly suspicious look. Either the people of New Hampshire are more careful or less culpable than they were a year ago and the time seems rather short for them to have acquired that effective caution which the former supposition would imply. "Cause unknown" is a very innocent looking phrase, and sounds well in print but the time is coming when spontaneous combustion will be considered a criminal indulgence on the part of old and infirm buildings. That time seems to have ar rived at least temporarily in New Hampshire.

Chicago Inter Ocean. Mr. William inter, the dramatic critic of the New York Tribune, has recently had a narrow escape from pneumonia.

Although now convalescent he is still very weak. George W. Williams, the colored man President Arthur appointed minister to Hay ti shortly before the close of his administration and whom Secretary Bayard refused to recognize, although he had been confirmed by the Senate, has sued the United States for 7,500 salary. The Mormons do not like Gov. Murray.

He insists on enforcing the laws of the United States and vetoes legislative measures which are intended to nullify those laws. It is a great credit to Gov. Murray that he is unpopular. A'cw Ilavcn Neus. Dr.

OUR KALEIDOSCOPE. There is one thing which cannot be "slow and sure," and that is, a watch. In the office of a theatrical paper the "printer's devil" should be called "the galley slave." "The lottery must go," remarked the rural editor, as he thrust his last $2 bill into an envelope and sent it on to the management.

A New York lady advertises for a pair of opera glasses which she lost in a Fifth avenue church. This reminds us that the season for spring bonnets is now open. "I cannot lend you my countenance in this affair," remarked a Burlington belle, as she caught one of her admirers trying to steal her photograph out of a family album. There are two things which a man is bound to take on faith his wife's private opinion of him and what sausages are made from. Fall River Advance.

Not if he takes the paragraphist's word for the latter. "Treat every man as you would yourself be treated," says a writer. This would be a first rate illuminated motto to hang up in a drug store. The victorious party in a Maine municipal election assembled for a little celebration on the eve of election day, and some wag mixed a lot of yeast with their beer.

The Massachusetts legislature placed a wise law on its statute books, last week, when it passed the bill forbidding the sale of tobacco to minors. Why doesn't Congress take up the labor question Just now, its discussion would be very seasonable and might, at least, cause a temporary lull in the agitation of the laboring classes. As was predicted and expected, the House committee on education has shelved the Blair educational bill.

When it comes forth again, if it ever does, it is likely to be considerably dusty. Henry L. Nelson has resigned the editorship of the Boston Post. Managing Editor C. W.

Burpee has also resigned, Rev. W. W. Downs has sued the paper for 990,000 for libel. And yet the Post was never so good a paper as it is now.

According to the annual report of the Michigan bureau of labor, recently published, the Saginaw valley strike resulted in a loss of 385,000 in wages alone. This is a feature of strikes which laboring people are liable to overlook. In the aggregate, statistics demonstrate that strikes do not pay. The cholera still lingers in Spain, and medical men predict that it will reach this country during the coming summer. It would be the part of caution, then, to renew the hygienic and sauitary precautions in our large cities, which were undertaken when the cholera first began its ravages abroad.

A practical iron worker told the ways and means committee of Congress last week that to reduce the tariff would be equivalent to redncing the wages of American workmen to those of foreign laborers. Of course and this is why some moneyed corporations in this country want to cut down the duties on imports. Some of our Democratic contemporaries re sighing because Messrs. Bayard, Garland and Lamar were removed from the Senate to the cabinet so that they cannot defend the president in the matter of removals from office. These journals seem to forget that in 1879 these three statesmen all took the ground that the Senate had the fright to demand the papers, in cases of removals from office.

The escape of the passengers of the steamship Oregon seems more and more wonderful, as additional particulars of the accident are furnishad. There are so many "ifs" in the that the fact that the collision took place where it did ami when it did is almost a miracle of good fortune. The Cunard line has always had, if we may be permitted the phrase, good luck in its bad luck. By an error in make-up, we credited a paragraph on Mr. Edmunds's the Free Press, to the Woodstock Standard, which should have been credited to the Bellows Falls Times.

The paragraph which appeared in the Standard was as follows There is not another man in the Senate who could have performed the service so magnificently for the Republican party, and the blood of every true Vermonter will tingle with pride when he contemplates the brilliant scene and realizes that our little State is able thus to command the attention of the country. An amusing incident sometimes occurs, which takes all the seriousness out cf what is Intended to be a very serious matter. During the strike of the young cracker packers in New Yomk, they had a picket patrol around the manufactory, to prevent other packers from taking their places. All worked finely, until a colored lad undertook to pass the picket. Upon being stopped, he promptly took off his coat and gave his questioner a sound thrashing.

This incident threw a cold blanket over the romance of the affair, and in a short time all but two of the packers had surrendered and returned to their work. "Cause Unknown." It is becoming a matter of wonder why so many fires occur for which no natural cause can be discovered or assigned. Every day we run across accounts of the burning of comparatively worthless buildingsusually in country places which close with the familiar lengend, "Cause unknown." It has been suggested that the cause is not so much 'unknown," in the majority of these cases, as concealed and, unwilling as we are to accept this interpretation of the mystery, we are compelled to believe that there is some truth in it The high rates of indemnity 1886.
