It appears that Governor Baldwin does not think the planting of shade and the protection of useful is beneath his notice. . In his R kes April 1ith Arbor day im Ahis state, wnd says R “And 1 recommend that all, who can, use the opportunity jo pjant t suitable for shade m.mi: around their homes, or e pullic r0ads, and that in our chools the teachers on that day read aloud this proclamatien and impress upon the ininds of those subject to their care the loveliness of groves and shaded avenues: the solicitude with which our Jaws seek to guard the perpetuation of the song birds, and the many Ways in which children can do am important part in preventing injuries to birds or trees, and so giving thelr state a #reat charm amnd making it more dear o its people.” The New England citles are beauti- themselves. Providence is se ting eut theusands of voung shade trees. A distribution of 25000 by a New Maven merchant indicates the #pirit moving in the Elm city: and the preffered tree for every pupil of the public schools indicates a fine civie ®pirt on the part of the firm of The Porteous & Mitchall Co. of Norwich, amd foreshadows the adornment of @rivate grounds with Leautiful trees. The owners of little places hers in Reem O Murray Norwich will be pleased to aid the ehildren in setting these tress upon or in front of their prop 1t will be a lasting pleasure to have Sdded one pretiy tres te the arbores! beauty of e of New England.” MISREPRESENTATION.

The man who had been ejected pulled his necktie Into place and adjusted his coat, and then with a smile passed up a flight of stairs that led to the general manager's office. ‘Say, Bill’ said a fellow employe, who had seen the incident, to the elevator man, ‘that #uy you threw out of the elevator was the president of the company—se vou might just as well hand in your res- ignation’ 1 was curious enough to visit the bullding agaim in abeut a week afterward, and to my surprise saw that the elevator man was still on job, and upon being questioned that he had received a $2 raise in his weekly pay. This is rather a rare case of meri but it shows what may happen to a man who takes his orders straight and executes them. The soldier on picket duty doesn't have to recognize the zeneral in command; and why should the elevator man be expected to know the president of the company? The president may have ordered his pay raised. MINERALOGICAL COLLECTION GOES TO TRINITY. Through the generosity of Mrs John H. Caswell of New York, Trinity college has recently come into pos- session of the valuable collection. of minerals gathered during his lifetime by the late George Henry Caswel. Mr. Caswell was graduated from Co- lumbia in 1865, and during the three following years studied at the old Mining academy at Freiberg in Ger- many, Here he became an enthusias- tic and intelligent student of miner- alogy, and on his return to the Unit- ed States took the position of assist- ant in mineralogy in the newly organ- ized Columbia School of Mines. This position he held for a number of yvears, and during this time was en- gaged in making for the United States government a microscopic examination of the rocks and minerals which had been brought back from the Black Hills, The collection as it now stands represents therefore the results of a lifetime of enthusiastic collecting by a scientist. It contains about 4,000 specimens scientifically arranged and illustrates very completely the typical crystal forms and their variations for a large range of mineral species. Among the specimens of more gen- eral interest are the following: A large crystal topaz weighing 16.1 ounces which was considered so re- markable af to be photographed by Tiffany & Co.; several large crystals of the transparent pink tourmaline from Pala, Cal.; a large boulder of jade from China weighing 16 pounds: specimens of the rare mineral kunzite named after George F. Kunz, the gem expert of Tiffany & Co., and used ex- tenstvely by that company as a gem stone; and fine specimens of groupa of natural crystals of native gold. The collection has been received at the college but is not yet on public EDITORIAL NOTES. The man who first appears in ultra fashionable clothing is oftenest the last to pay the tailor.

I've been eating beef so long that it seems to me I can feel horns growing on my head, and I expect that somebody will ‘be putting a bell on my neck one ot these days. The people of this country eat too much beef. That's why they all die of apiglexy and fill untimely graves. 1 want a change of diet, so think of something besides beef.” “Try some of this mutton, then; it's extra fine, and has the stamp of tie sovernment inspectors and. complies #ith all the pure food laws.” “Oh, mutton is as bad a chestnut as beef. I want something mew. Why can't the meat dealers do like other business men? The people get so tired of beef and mutton and pork that they simply can’t express their disgust and indignation. Why don't you go out in the country and kill something that will make a new kind of meat? There's no sense in always selling the same old - junk—beef.and mutton and_pork, pork and mutton and beef. Nearly every time I o ‘home T find my wife weeping and wringing her hands, and when 1 ask her what the trouble is, she says she’s in despair, for she doesn't know what to order for dinner. She calls up the meat market and asks if there are no novelties in stock, and the answer's always the same-nothing but pork and mutton and beef. “We have some nice fresh fish this morning, if you like fish." “I don't Nke fish. The man who started this thing of selling fish as an article of diet ought to be in jail. A fish is nearly all bones, and 'a man always gets the bones in his throat; and then he strangles and turns black in the face, and people have to pound him on the back.

The book said explicitly that the hunters went “into the wilderness in order to get away from the beef and mutton and pork butchers. They stood beef and mut- ton dnd pork until patience ceased to be a virtue. A man from Texas told me the other day that the peccary makes fine eating when properly cook- ed. Why don't you send to Texas and get a peccary for your exhausted cus- tomars?” “If 1 did the customers would be putting bombs under my residence.

Get in something fresh, a grizzly bear or such a critter, and then cail me up.”—Chicago News. b The Best is the Cheapest. From at least one grocery store in Bennington butter brought from Illi- nois is being retalled. The proprietor of the iore states he finds it impossi- ble to buy enough first class butter in this section to supply his trade. It is a_rather strange comment: on the farming industry in a dairving state like Vermont that it is found necessary to send hundreds of miles away to get butter when the price of that product is as high as it has been during reeent vears. The same dealer also states that of the butter mede in this section a considerable part will not bring a first class price owing to the inferior quality. Every producer of butter should learn first that it cests no more to produce high grade butter than it does to produce low grade, and if he finds he is not getting the best price he should not sleep nights fintil he discovers why and cor- rects his mistake—Bennington Ban- ner. If a burn be covered with butter promptly the skin will not blister. Cold Storage Fish Plant. Announc¢ement that arrangements have been concluded with a large United States packing concern to es- tablish and operate five cold-storage plants in Newfoundland, for fish and fish products, has been made. ‘The company proposes to erect these plants at its own expense within the next five years. Each plant will cost $100,000 or more and one a year is to bs built and started, the whole to be op= erated for 15 years. The company Dproposes to erect within the same pe- riod five smokehouses, five fish-pack- ing factories, two glue factories, and tWo guano factories, whereby they will be able to utilize the by-products of the main industry. A packing house and smokehouse are to be erected each year, and ghie and guano factories every two years. Provision has also been made for a floating plant, instead of a station on land, which can be moved around the coast from place to place, and thus avail of the fishery possibilities of the northern section of the coast, which is icebound for part of the year, and Insures ‘the food against alum, and alum food is the greatest menace to health of the present day. —_— 2 - Prevent Baldness i For when the roots die, you can’t grow maore hair | ELIKE.- r*Tonic nourishes the impoverished scalp and gives the Hain Bollicles & DANDRU And Hai calthy stimulus. \ 1 JOHNES ST. 4 50c. azd §1.00 To thoroughly cleanse tii> hair and scalp, use Coke Liquid Shampoo | It is soothing and refreshing to a tired scalp, Large Bottle, 25c.
