A few of those who were fortunate enough to witness the flights made at Rheims the past summer, and more, perhaps, who saw the flight of Wright over the Goddess of Liberty in New York and later over the city to Grant's tomb, can perhaps hetter realize what coming days may bring forth in aerial navigation. Judge Baldwin, whose comservative conclusions can always be relied upon, put airships first off out of the class of possibilities and matriculated them in the class of realities. He then very simply dealt with the warious ques- tions that must sooner or later come up for consideration by the best legal minds o fthe country. Perhaps it would have been harder to find an audience, outside of an audience com- posed of those particularly interested in aerial navigation, more familiar with the general topic of airships than the audience that Judge Baldwin ad- dressed on Friday evening, and yet it would be safe to say that there were many among those there that evening to whom the statement that the sub- ject of laws governing aerial naviga- tion had been so carefully consldered by the legal minds of our own country and FEuropean countries came with surprise. That the subject had al- ready at this stage been so ecarefully covered was news to a large number. And yet final decisions have by no means been reached, as Judge Bald- win pointed out, especially governing the international side of the matter. But, to borrow from Connecticut's chief justice, the lawyers have had to evolve laws covering thesrailroads, the telephone, the telegraph and other new industries during the last century, and aerial law is only another new field to be tried.—New Haven ITnion.

Gr_ee—fierger, FRANKLSN STREET, fi:}nf Merwich, Conn. | Highly Disagreeable A Quick and Permanent Relief for This Trouble at a Small Expense There are many thousands of people who are the unfortunate possessors of offensive and obnoxious breath, which has its origin in chronic nasal and throat catarrh, or an unhealthy condi- tion of the stomach, or decay of the teeth, and when these persons realize they are the victims of such an un- desirable possession, they f{requentiy feel constrained to remain off to them- selves the greater part of the time, be- cause they understand only too well how disagreeable it must be to others with whom they come in contact. For it is an undeniable fact that people will comment on, and criticise the person whose breath is foul and offensive. - Very frequently we hear the comment, “So-and-so is a most agree- able companion; an interesting talker, with a large fund of information; is well-posted on world-history and the biographies of many celebrities; can talk fluently on current topics; is an accomplished musician, and literateur; and would be a most desirable addi- tion to any social gathering, except for the deplorable fact that his or her breath is so extremely offensive, that persons of refinement. good breeding and delicate sensibilities do not care to come into contact with them.” And very naturally, too, for an ob- noxious breath taints the yery atmos- phere, and affects the persons sur- rounding the affected one in a way which is positiely nauseating. There is no longer any excuse for a person, however foul and offensive their breath may be, of inflicting its obnoxiousness upon the delicate nos- trils and olfactory nerves of others. Charcoal, the great absorbent, is the ideal remedy for conditions described herein, and in STUART'S CHARCOAL LOZENGES we have the very best form in which charcoal may be taken. These little lozenges absorb one hun- dred times their own volume in foul gases and tainted breaths, and besides deodorizing and purifying the breath and rendering it sweet and agreeable, they also act as antiseptics and clea ers of the stomach and intestinal s tem, absorbing all offensive gases which may be present there, destroy- ing disease germs, poisons and mi crobes, and putting a stop to such mor- bid processes as fermentation and de- composition in cases of chronic dys- pepsia and intestinal indigestion. Don’t allow yourself to be kept out of company of your friends beca-iga you may be so unfertunate as to have offensive preath from any cause.

He states that one of the du- ties imposed upon the supervisors by the census act is the designatfon of | typewriters or pushing Avoid Taking Cold,,..)

A | suitable persons to be employed, with the consent of the director of the cen- sus, as enumerators within their re- spective districts, It is further provid- ed that such persons shall be selected solely with a view to fitness, and with- out reference to their political party affiliations. “The census act provides that the enumeration of population and agricul- ture shall begin on April 15, 1910, and that each enumerator shall complete the work required in his district with- in thirty days in the case of rural dis- tricts and small towns, and within two weeks in the case of any incorporated city, town, village or borough which had 8,000 inhabitants or more under the census of 1900. “It is desirable where possible that the enumer{;or shall live in the dis- trict Le is to canvass. He should be famliiar with its territory and the gen- eral character of the people. “The census requires as enumerators active, energetic persons of good ad- | dress. They must be thoroughly trust- worthy, honest and of good habits. They must have at least ordinary ed- ucation and be able to write plainly and with reasonable rapidity. In gen eral, reference will be given to former enumerators if they are at present physically able to perform the duties of the position. “Each person secking appointment as census enuemrator must make a written application to the supervisor for the district of which a resident, and said application must be made throughout in the handwriting of the applicant, and must be indorsed by two representative business men of the community in which the applicant re- sides. “All applicants for appointment as enumerators will be required to take an examination, to be prescribed by the director of the census, to determine their fitness for the work. This exam- ination will be of a practical character, consisting chiefly or wholly of the fill- ing out of a sample schedule of popula- tion from data furnished, and in the case of enumerators whose work will be in rural districts the filling out of a sample schedule of agriculture. “Each applicant is furnished with an illustrative example of the manner of filling the population schedule and, in country districts, with a copy of the agricultural schedule to which, in the erator, before entering upon his duties, to receive a commission, under the hand of the supervisor of the district to which he belongs, and to take and subscribe an oath or affirmation that he will faithfully discharge all the du- ties required of him under the law, “The census act also provides that an enumerator, after accepting an ap- pointment and qualifying for the work, can not, ‘without justifiable cause,’ re- fuse or neglect to perform the duties of the nosition; and he will further be required to devote his entire working time to the census work during the pe- riod of the enumeration. “The compensation to be paid to | enumerators is fixed by the census act, and an allowance of not less than two i nor more than four cents for each in- ! habitant, not less than twenty nor more than thirty cents for each farm report- ed, aud ten cents for each barn and in- closure containing livestock not on farms, as provided to( all subdivisions where the director of ‘the census shall deem such remuneration saflicient. In other subdivisions the director may fix a mixed rat of not less than one nor more than two dollars per day, in addi- ion, an allowance or not less than one { nor more than three cents for each in- habitant enuemrated, and not lass than fifteen ndr more than twenty cents for each farm reported, while in subdivi- sions where per diem rates are neces- sary, because of the difficulty of the enumeration, the enumerator may be allowed, in the discretion of the direc- tor, a compensation of not less than three nor more than six dollars per day of eight hours actual field work each. Except in extreme cases, no claim for mileage or traveling expenses will be allowed to any enumerator, and then | only when authority has bqen previ- ously granted by the direcfor of the census.” Attention is also called to the letter of the president, addressed to the sec- rethary of commerce and labor, a copy of which is appended to the state- ment, concerning the matter of polit- jcal activity on the part of census su- pervisors and enumerators. In accord- ance with this letter any enumerator must sever his connection with any political committee of which he may be a member, before entering on his duties, and must refraia from political activity during his term of employ- | ment. _— THE REV. JOHN B. TABB. Deep Interest Shown by Readers in Works of the Late Poet. Since the death of the Rev. John Banister Tabb in Maryland, Nov. 19, says the Waterbury Republican, con- giderable interest has centered about the life and works of the poet, and there has been a call at the library for information concerning him. Father Tabb was a professor of Eng- lish literature at St. Charles’ college, Ellicott City, Md. He was 4 man of much note and was a veteran of the Civil war, in which he engaged as a confederate soldier. He left his studies to go to war, and afterwards resumed his college course. For the past two or three years he had been so unfor- tunate as to be blind. Father Tabb’s poetry is exceptional for its originality and artistic merit and his quatrains, a favorite form with him, are pronounced the best that have been written in recent years. The fol- lowing list was placed on the bulletin board@ of the library this week: “Poems,” Verse, Poems Grave and Gay. For sketch of Father Tabb’s life and eriticism of his work, see the fol- lowing: Southern Writers, by Trent; American Anthology, Stedman; Songs of the South, Clarke; Living Age, Vol- ume 255; Independent, Volume 65;: Na- tional Cyclopedia of American Biogra- phy, Volume 13; New International Encyclopaedia. The Rhodes Scholarship. As a result of the preliminary tests for the Rhodes scholarship for 1810, the authorities at Oxford university, Oxford, England, have announced the names of those” men eligible to appear before the committee . for selection. Among those invited to appear is George M. Stockdale ofvMeriden.- Mr. Stockdale is the son of Rev. F. B. Stockdale. George Stockdale was a member of the class of 1906 at the Waterbury High school, but in the middle of his junior year the family removed to Meriden, where he enter- ed the high school there. He is now a senior at Wesleyan. Thomas Means, a Yale senior, of New Haven, was also invited to appear before .the commit- tee, as were Charies R. Beatley of Rochester, N. Y., Elmer D. Keith of Brooklyn and John R. Larus, all Yale men. The committee of selection will meet before Christmas and it will an- nounce its choice of a scholar imme- diately. “Girl” Writes to the Point. A young woman with a sharp pen writes to a western newspaper as fol- lows: Your editorial deploring the fact that S0 many women are taking men’s places in office and shop is amusing. Why don’t the men marry us and keep business for themselves? If you have the notion that women prefer banging sewing ma- chines or. seiling goods over the counter to making homes for loving husbands and prattling children, , why then you are a goose of a man and a very un- observing editor. All this talk about the modern desire of women to be in- dependent is absurd. The pictures you see in the magazines of happy girl bachelors are lying documents—there isn’t any such thing as a happy bach- *lor girl, though there might be such a hing as a merry widow. This impish maiden signs her re- buke with the one word “Girl.” Her argument that if men would marry off working girls the positions they hold would be opened to men is absolutely sound. Just why men do not marry them rapidly enough to keep them out of trade is a question that “Girl” will have to continue to puzzle her brain about. We know that the American boy is not marrying as early as his father and grandfather did and we also know that there has been a decline in the marriage rate in several states. The statement that there is no such thing as a happy bachelor girl will shock many men readers, but few . women.—Waterbury Republican. The Virtues of Slavery? Superintendent William Maxwell of New York put his finger upon a weak spot in our school system when he said that the virtues which it develop- cd—obedience, order, punctuality and silence—are the virtues of the slave. There are times when they are virtues in the free man as well; but that they ure not to be compared for value with initiative, power teo act independently, sr;urage and good judgment.—Montreal ar.

Y, World, WANTS REFORMATORY. Town of Huntington Has Available Sites for State Institution. Efforts to secure the locating of the proposed state reformatory within the borders of Huntington have been in progress for some time at Shelton. The general assembly authorized the locat- ing and establishment of such an in- stitution and it is pointed out that Huntington possesses! some peculiar advantages for such an institution. ‘Within a few minutes’ ride of the trol- ley can be found large tracts of some of the finest farm land in the state, perfectly isolated, yet easily accessi- ble. Supplies may be easily secured and transported without extreme cost, and all in all the people there believe there are a number of ideal locations for such an institution to be found in that place. What will be the result of the efforts now being made remains to be seen, but some very influential peo- ple are impressed with the natural ad- vantages of Huntington for such an institution. A Decadent Footpad. In the ancient profession of thievery there are certain immemorial courte- sies which no decent practitioners ever forgets. All the great artists, from Robin Hood down to Andrew Carnegie, have conformed to them. Nobody who ignored them is entitled to be called a gallant highwayman, a chivalrous bur- glar or a polite footpad, as the case may be. In spite of the antiquity of his calling he is a discourteous cad whom no gentleman can countenance and no lady can love. Much as the Oregonian dislikes severe censure, it is driven by the facts to class the San Francisco footpad who held up a young man on the way to tell his sister of his mother’s death among the cads. Claude Duval would not have been guilty of such an unseemly act. Nay, he would have lent the boy Black Bess to speed him on his errand. Much less would that prince of highwaymen have slash- ed the youth with a knife when he found him penniless, as this San Fran- cisco wight did, to the eternal shame of the guild. He would have bidden the impecunious wayfarer wait in the shadow while he held up some fat street railway magnate, and then, hav- ing endowed him with the spoil and his blessing, would have sent him on his errand rejoicing. Is the conduct of this San Francisco footpad an ex- ceptional instance of depravity or has the social malady which afflicts that unhappy town at last infected the low- Portland Oregonian. er orders.
