H. 0KA1TE, HUUCU Office in (he American Buildinf Main strest (rear) The general trend of editorial opinion throughout the state is Mr. DeBoer's attitude toward the gubernational nomination will not advance his candidacy to any great extent. According to the Northfield News the question will be raised now as it was four years ago: "If Mr. DeBoer cannot find time to give to a pre-convention canvass how would be find opportunity if he were nominated to conduct a vigorous campaign so necessary to assure a big republican majority in Vermont in a presidential year? And further, if elected governor would Mr.

DeBoer have time to attend to its increasing duties, if he had none in which to look after his own politi to Think About for The Reformer balls. At two-minute intervals she threw the ball as far as it would go, ran to find it and when it was reached stooped to pick it up without bending her knees. She rose very erect, lifting her arms above her head as far as they would stretch; then resumed her ordinary brisk walk until the ball was thrown again. She found her novel thinning exercise full of spice, much more fun than commonplace bending, and the open air life improved her health and complexion, while the stooping was bringing down her figure. Another girl thinned herself by stooping frequently to pick pebbles from a stony beach.

She learned a lot about shells and sand denizens while cultivating slimness. In both these methods the effect would be lost if stooping were not done from the waist with unbent knees. It is more beneficial to inhale deep breaths and keep the lungs inflated when bending. A very good looking frill, or rcver rather, which is used in place of a frill for mourning, is made of plain white organdie with a hemstitched hem about an inch wide and three-quarter-inch tucks running across the top and down the side, inside the hem.

Any girl with a penchant for the needle can accomplish one of the dainty side ruffles edged with colored embroidery seen in the shops.

The ruffles are cut in the desired size and length, allowing for the pleats, and stamped with a plain or fancy scallop. These scallops are embroidered in a favorite color, or one that harmonizes with the suit with which the ruffle is to be worn. Delicate pink is pretty with dark navy blue suits, and the lighter shades of blue are also good. Lavender and deep violet edges are also effective. To get the best effect, the embroidery should be done on the sheerest of handkerchief linen, and may be elaborated by the addition of dots in graduated sizes the same color as the edge.

A smart bow of velvet or satin ribbon beneath the chin should.carry out the color suggested in the edge of the ruffle. On a plain serge dress the ruffle is sometimes augmented by a pleated ruffle to match around tne neck and at the edge of the sleeves, these dajnty bits of white forming the only trimming. A girl whose last season's black velvet hat was in perfect condition, with the exception of very noticeable rain spots on the top, conceived the idea of covering it with some of the changeable taffeta silk now so much in vogue. The under brim of the hat was like new, so she brushed it carefully and smoothed it. Next 6he cut a piece of cerise and black, changeable taffeta to fit smoothly on the top of the brim.

This was fastened to the edge beneath a strip of narrow gold lace laid with the rilain edge sheer with the edge of the hat and sewed fast with gold thread to hide the stitches. The fancy edge of the lace. pointing inward, was tacked down with the gold thread caualit. to the silk. The crown was covered with a piece of gold lace and a soft fold of the silk laid about it, ending beneath a single large American lieautv with its leaves and buds.

All of her friends are asking her where she discovered such a striking hat and, remembering the $3 spent in its creation, she smiles enigmatically, refusing to divulge the name of her milliner. A girl who was growing out of her clothes determined to thin down by active exercise. Her doctor told her nothing was so thinning and hip reducing as to bend frequently from the waist line. Gymnastics and indoor physical exercise were hateful to her. but she struggled hard with them until one day, watching her small sister play with a rubber ball, a happy idea struck her.

i Students and alumni of the Brattleboro high school have an opportunity this year to demonstrate their loyalty to alma mater by turning out in good numbers to cheer for the school football team in its game against Greenfield tomorrow afternoon. It's easy enough to be loyal when victory is coming one's way, hut the test comes in time of adversity. Being a fair-weather sport is no credit to anybody. The high school has not been particularly successful in football thus far this fall, but that is the fault neither of the players who conqiose the team nor those in charge of it. Only one or two of those who helped es-tabhsh the enviable record of a year ago are on the team this year, the majority of its members being inexperienced.

But they make up in determination what they lack in knowledge of the game, and should be given support if for no other reason thanj House of Kuppenheiiner Chicago $5 Buiy Your New Suit or Overcoat Here Save Utom 2 to issued just now it doe, sot promise to stockholders an increased dividend rate. But the reasons for not promising this increase are not poor business or poor business prospects, but something altogether, different. President Vail does not call for further economies in order to bring up a higher dividend rate. On the contrary, he insists that too great economies have been practised, to the detriment of the service and the good of the employees. He declares that before more money can be provided for the stockholders the condition of the employees must be improved! The offices must be put in better condition, a pension system must be inaugurated and public confidence must be secured and hed.

It is unusual for the head of a big concern like the Western Union to declare that it must brace up and that it has not been fulfilling its duties toward the public or toward the employees. When one reads this paragraph in the report he begins to appreciate that Mr. Vail is very earnest in what he is talking about: Without going into detail there still exists a necessity for the doing of many things which cannot be ignored. Salaries and wages to be readjusted, an effective and beneficial pension scheme to be inaugurated, that good men may not only be retained, but encouraged and made to feel that the interest and prosperity of the company works for their interest and prosperity. Offices and apparatus and general surroundings to be improved, brightened up, that all work may be done under decent and sanitary conditions.

Plant to be reconstructed, that promptness and efficiency may be required and obtained." This sounds very different from the calamity reports and I recommendations of some railroad and other industries' presidents and the head-chopping policies that are in vogue with them at the present time. The Western Union has increased wages to the astonishing extent of 21 per cent during the past year. What other concern has done that? And yet President Vail declares that more increases are And the stockholders, who are getting only three per cent now, are plainly told that they won't get any more until the plant and the people are in better condition. While all theRe declarations, may sound like the maunderings of a Socialist or certainly of a poet anything but those of a business man they are indeed the findings of a keen business man who knows that liberality and good treatment of employees are big assets for any concern. Now that the Western Union's head has indicated it.

one need not hesitate to say that under the old management this company was one of the most illiberal, niggardly anil unprogressive in the world, It had few if any sanitary appliances, it paid miserable salaries, its equinment was noor and its service was bad. Under Colonel Clowry conditions somewhat improved, but it was not until Mr. Vail with his big ways and broad policies took hold that the company began to grow and expand in all ways. This report shows an increase of business in everv direction except in leased lines which means the abolition of poolroom wires and Mr. Vail doesn't regret that.

More nower to his elbow! And may his stockholders never grumble for four or five per cent until the company has brightened its premises, made them more healthful, and improved the lot of its people. This is the doctrine he has preaVhed in the telephone company and in every' other big enterprise in which he is concerned. Death of Justice Harlan. Associate Justice John Marshall Harlan of the Supreme Court of the United States, died early Saturday morning, aged 78, from an attack of acute bronchitis, at bis home in Washington. Justice Harlan had been il! since the previous Monday, when ho contracted a severe cold.

Announcement has been made that the German authorities have suspended the importation of live geese from Russia on the ground that tljere is a considerable amount of disease prevalent in the frontier districts or that country. Coming, as this prohibition does, immediately prior to the period when imports of live geese increase rapidly, the question is serious alike to breeders in Russia, who will have large quantities of birds thrown on their hands; to German goose fatteners, as they will be unable to fill up their pens, for the home production is totally insufficient to meet their requirements, and to housewives in Germany, who will find the already high price of what is an important article of food advance still further and probably be prohibitive. Russians state that there is no justification' for this regulation; that it is a trade move in the interests of German dealers to force down prices and as a measure of fiscal protection to German breeders. Germany imports annually about live tteese, of which seven-eights come from Russia, where these birds are bred in vast numbers throughout the western and southwestern governments. Theyare bought from the raisers by travelling dealers, who drive them in hugh nocks to the frontier stations, where they are entrained for despatch to Berlin and other cities.

The cars used for this numose are built in four each car holding about 1,200 birds, special trains are run in the season, consisting of a dozen to 35 cars, in accordance with the supply. As many as 50,000 geese have been known to arrive at Maeerviehhof Market, Berlin, on a single day. West minster Gazette. Advertised Letters. Men: Arthur Bonsgiict (21.

Jsnusry 4. 1907, at the postoffice at Brattleboro, tne Act of congress oi aircn xotv. BRATTLEBOBO, TODAY, OCT. 20, 1911. WATER POWER.

The announcement that Brattleboro men are prime movers in a water power project that promises to be the largest in New "England serves to call attention to the increasing recognition of the value of this particular natural resource, and likewise brings to public notice the name of this town in connection with a hydro-electric development of no small importance to Xew England industries. While the Central New Hampshire power project contemplates no direct industrial benefit to this town its success cannot but be of local advantage in so far as those financially interested are rewarded. Moreover, it advertises us as a community whose citizens are energetic and enterprising. Already known as the town in which the Connecticut River Power company came into being, Brattleboro now steps into prominence as the birth-place of a project of still greater scope one whose consummation will make available for the manufacturers of New Hampshire and eastern Massachusetts an amount of electrical energy almost half as great as the total amount of horsepower now made by water in fhe latter state. "What is vinegar?" and "What 'are Soft drinks?" questions pending for over two years, will be decided very soon by the reconstructed board of food and drug inspection which considered these matters at a meeting at Washington last week.

Dr. Wiley, in control of the board, proposes to do away with soda fountain sales of soft drinks containing artificial sweeteners, synthetic flavors, caffeine, etc. Vinegar will be the first subject considered by the board. It is the contention of Dr. Wiley that pure vinegar should be made only from cider, and that vinegars made from malt, sugar, molasses, wine and other ingredients should not be branded as pure vinegar.

It is understood that Dr. Doolit-tle, who is the "vinegar expert" of the department of agriculture, holds a similar view and that the board of food and drug inspection is likely to make a ruling soon in line with Dr. Wiley's views. Action against soft drinks sold at soda fountains can apply only to the drinks as they are shipped in interstate commerce. The government police power will give Dr.

Wiley the opportunity, however, to enforce his rulings in the city of Washington by confiscating impure drinks af the local soda fountains. That fires in dwelling houses are not of more frequent occurrence is a matter of good fortune rather than careful precaution. For instance, how many householders, like a Springfield, insurance man, have provided their establishments with: i Automatic sprinklers in cellar. Automatic fire alarm in cellar and kitchen connected with alarm gong on sec ond floor. Standpipe with hose lines on first, second and third floors, under 120 pounds pressure.

Three water pails (filled) on shelf in cellar way. Fire and lantern in convenient place. Brick and mortar fire steps at each floor in all 'main partitions. Full sized wire fire screens over all used fireplaces: All matches kept in covered' metal box. Only metal barrels used for ashes.

Special metal barrel for waste paper only. Cellar kept clean all the time. Members of the Springfield, board of trade are much exercised over the possibility that the Bosch Magneto company will abandon the extensive plant it has recently built in Brightwood, near the Chicopee line, on account of the obnoxious odors that come from rendering establishments near by. The Bosch company is considered one of the most desirable concerns to locate in the vicinity of Springfield in many years and its business is growing so rapidly that it will soon be giving employment to almost 3,000 people. Since locating in Brightwood it has complained frequently about the odors from the adjacent establishments and its latest protest seems to be in the nature of an ultimatum.

The matter will, probably come up for settlement at a meeting of the state board of health next month. Meanwhile, it is safe to say, the Bosch company will hi flooded with inducements to locate in cities whose atmosphere is undefiled. Statistics compiled by secretary of state show that the automobile interests of Windham county have paid into the state treasury this year $0,193.31. Of this amount $5,420.31 came from regular registrations, $100 from dealers' registrations and $704 from operators' licenses. This sum and considerable more might well be expended in improving the highway over which automobile tourists enter eastern Vermont from the south.

A Tide from Northfield, to Hinsdale, N. over the recently completed boulevard along the east shore of the Connecticut will convince anyone tfcat unless Vermont immediately does something toward providing an equally good highway on her side of the river she will lose most of the profitable sum me traflic which has been steadily increasing in recent years. cal aspirations?" The costliness of legislative blunders is well illustrated by the fate of the Craw ford Notch bill which the New Hampshire legislature passed at its last session after a strenuous fight. The supreme court of that state has decided that the act is invalid because a house amendment leaving the amount to be expended to the discretion of the governor was not incorporated in the measure passed by the senate and signed Dy the governor, llns error was not dis covered until negotiations for the purchase of the Notch were well under way. Believ ers in conservation will now have to make their fight over again in the next session, while lumbering in the Notch continues to destroy its natural beauty.

Hapgood discarded his fountain pen for a typewriter long ago, or else the ma' chine was a second-hand one when he bought it. At any rate the copy it turns out is enough to make the average editor wish his profession allowed him to take a drink. Annette, the suffragette, led the state W. C. T.

Send him and Col. J. G. Estey of Brattleboro and two other men whose ability to represent Vermont is not lessened by the fact that they haven't been honored heretofore. The Burlington Clipper is authority for the statement that R.

E. Brown of Burlington is going to be nominated for attor ney-general without opposition. Does it think there are no aspiring lawyers in this end of the state? A 'Temperate Temperance Man. (Montpelier Journal.) The Rev. C.

H. Smith, the new superintendent of the Vermont Anti-Saloon league made an excellent impression on the occasion of his first series of addresses here Sunday and his program seems rea sonable ana helpful. He recognizes the value of the local option principle and does not antagonize temneranoe men whose views are not precisely like his own. In other words, while earnest and zealous, he is not intemperate in his temperance work. He ought to accomplish much good and the Journal believes that he will.

Mr. DeBoer. (Bennington Banner.) The Barre Times makes one more. tempt to get Hon. Joseph A.

DeBoer of -Uontpeiier to rim tor the governorship next year and the Times comes a little nearer success than heretofore. Mr. DeBoer says in effect that he would like to be governor but cannot spare the time from his business to make a canvass of eight or nine months such as seems to be required ermont. While Mr. DeBoer is ethically right his.

attitude, it is not likely that he will he governor under the condition as it is Mr. DeBoer may be, and probably is, intel lectually, the superior ot any other man in the state of Vermont, but Vermont has many men splendidly qualified to be governor. Were the other asirirant or aspir ants for the place unfit men men whose elevation would lower the high standards of the. state of Vermont, then an aroused public sentiment would force Mr. DeBoer in to the executive chair, but the issue in this case is not of that kind.

Mr. Fletcher, the leading candidate, is a man who in his legislative service for the past 10 veara has done much for the state. Vermont has made real progress during that time ana from a glance hack over the issues of the decade and their outcome it would appear to be unquestionable that Mr. Fletcher has fought usually on the right and progressive side and that he has had a weight and influence equalled hy few. Mr.

Slack's service has been shorter but there can he no question that he is a safe Under these circumstances, it is hardly likely that the rank and file of the voters will take the time and trouble to give' 'the governorship to Mr. DeBoer. hiirhlv as thev may and do esteem him. The Banner is a sincere admirer ot Air. lJerjoer.

He is one of the great and brainy men of America and we hope some day to see him occuny a seat in the United States senate. We should like to see him governor of Ver mont, but we do not think that the need is so acute that the voters will arise their might and force him to accept the office. Great crises require revolutionary methods but this campaign is not a great crisis in Vermont history. Vermont is making progress not as fast as- some of us would like, but at a rate not greatly exceeded by any eastern state, sou can pick out one thing here and there in which other east ern states are ahead of Vermont, but when a general average is struck. Vermont is pretty well forward.

In striving for further progress and for actual specific, things, we are apt to lose sight of tne splendid progress that Vermont has been making during recent years and that without a direct tax. without running into debt, and without even taxing corporations, banks, as mucn as they are taxed in most states. Camnaicm year is-cominor on and we alinll hear a great deal on the stump, through the newspapers, and in behalf of various candidates, and esneciallv a ereat. deal that isn true. Vermont lias been making progress, hut there is room for more.

The issues are move imnortant than Hip men. The, future does hot depend on any one Taction, any one party, or any one man. The chief thing is to distinguish the honest trom the dishonest, the patriot from the demagogue, the- real advance from tlm hnmbuggery and sophistry and buncombe witn wnicii campaigns are rite. The vagaries of Vail. (Boston Transcript.) Something ought to be done with Theo dore N.

Vail, president of the Western Union Telegraph company. The report that he made of his company for the last year is certainly a thing that should make his friends inquire into his mental condition. What he read to his stockholders was a homily on sanitation, old age pensions, decent offices and better service tr the public. This is heresy if we know what heresy is. His report is by no means the usual dry-as-dust showing of decreases in this arid increases in that, nor of economies here and hopeful showings there.

On the contrary, it is a report that seems to have an astonishing amount, ot public consideration in it.
