Knowlton, has named you one of the heirs in ner will, We sincerely regret that we are unable to inform you of the exact nature of the legacy, owing to the rather vague wording of the| whl. Our late ciient, much against| our repeated advice, refused to have | the paragraph in which you are men- tioned altered in any way. ““According to the will, the house and all the real estate Is left jointly to you and to one Constance Trent, a distant relative of our late client, to be di- vided or disposed of as you two shall mutually see fit. “We fully realize the delicate posi- tion in which this places you, and the | annoyance to which you are subjected | by a legacy under such terms, We re- spectfully suggest that, if you can con- veniently do, so, a conference with us and an_inspection of the property by vou will materially aid in unraveling “Irusting that we may hear from vou at your earliest convenience,we are sincerely yours, OW & BEMIS, “Attorneys at Law.” | Knowlton grunted. It was so like his Aunt Sarah to leave him property in this absurd, tled-up fashion. For u.‘ moment he was tempted to write the lawyers to give the whole estate to this Constance Trent, whoever that lady might be, and thus end the whule' matter. Then he reflected that Aunt| Sarah was a woman for whose judg- | ment heh ad always had the greatest | respect, and whose motives, while| sometimes whimsical In appearance, were always sane and far-sighted. Per- haps, after all, it would be better to make haste slowly and at least view | the property once more and find out what sort of a mortal this Constance | Trent might be. Two days later Knowliton was speed- ing over the Vermont hills to his new- | Iy acquired property. It was a charm- | ihg old house, built on a high hill, ov- | erlooking the placid river, twisting its tortuous course along the valley. All about were sloping fields and acres of | well kept orchards. | The news of Knowlton's arrival was teiegraphed to Constance Trent in the northern part of the state, and the same wire requested her presence at an interview of the legatees in the of- fice of Snow & Bemis. The reply came promptly. Miss Trent, it maid, would be on hand early Thurs- day morning. On Thursday morning Knowlto strode into the lawvers' office. Neither | of the firm were there, but seated by the window was a slight young woman, with the most bewlitching violet eyes! 1 | | | Knowlton had ever bebeld. She flush- ©d_and rose as he ent “Mr, Knowiton?”" sl Iy Knowlton gasped. “You're—you're not Miss ' Trent— Miss Constance Trent?" he stammered clumsily. The young woman smiled prettily. It brought out a dimple in either cheek. “I fear I'll have to disappoint you by confessing 1 am,” she said. “I'm very glad to know you, Miss Trent,” he murmured. He wanted to add, “Thank heaven, you are the man- ner of woman that you are.” “Mr. Knowlton,” she said, “I'ta only a very distant relative of Aunt Sarah, as I always called her, and 1 feel I have inquired soft- no right to this property That is what 1 came here today to tell you." Knowlton laughed heartily. “My dear Miss Trent,” he expostu- lated, “that is the very thing I came here to tell you.” They both laughed merrily. “Something must be done with it"” said the girl. “Suppose we go up to the place and decide there " he suggested. They went to the place that very morning, and many times after that; but no decision about the property could they reach. Knowiton flatly re- fused to accept his share unless the girl accepted hers. The girl stoutly maintained that she had no right to a share In the estate. The days went by and they argued good naturedly, while they ransacked the house or strolled together through the orchard and across the sloping flelds. One mellow October afternoon they stood on the broad front steps. looking down at the river. Knowlton had fall- en suddenly silent. He gazed abstract- edly at the irregular line of hills soft- encd by the autumnal haze. Presently he turned to the girl. “I bave reached a decision in this matter,” he announced. ou must keep the property—all of it—but it must be kept in the name of Knowl- ton.” The girl's eyes widened. A bit of scarlet crept into her cheeks. “You understand me?”’ he sald, eag- erl 1 think—" she began. “You must change your name to Knowlton,! he declared gravely. Her breath came quickly. She turn- ed away “It's the only solution, isn't it?” he begged. “It—it seems 80,” she faltered. Knowlton caught her in his arms; then suddenly he held her away from him and looked squarely into her eves. Tl bet dollars to doughnuts this is the very ending Aunt Sarah planned,” e laughed. “Dear, far-sighted Aunt Sarah!" she whispered “Amen!” said Knowlton, fervently.— St. Louis Globe. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR. | Not Fair to City Taxpayers. | To the Editor of The Bulletin: Sir— 1 wish to ask why our fire apparatus, for the maintenance of which our city taxpayers alone have to provide | should be so frequently summened to extinguish fires outside the city lim- its? While such apparatus is absent from the city, a fire might easily break out | which, while it could perhaps be| quelled in its incipiency by our light moving machines, might easily grow into a disastrous conflagration because of the absence of this apparatus on a s0-called “errand of humanity.” The majority of the inhabitants of our outlylng districts seem to be un- alterably opposed to annexation to the city. This is probably their right. But I submit to all fair-minded citizens that there is no shadow of justice or equity in allowing them to demand city privileges and protection without being assessed to help maintain the same, Therefore, permit me to xpress the hope that if the present state of things is to continue, early steps may Dbe 1aken to secure legislative enactment providing that these gentry shall be assessed to pay thelr equitable share of the expense of such protection. CITY TAXPAYER. 1912, Norwich, July People 8hould Think for Themselves. Mr. Editor: It's an interesting study to watch the antics of some of our go- called great men and’ note how hard they work to not do, to ret find oul, what they pretend they are trying to do or find out, viz.: the cause of the high cost of living. ,They assign the primal cause. In The Bulletin of June ) s an editorlal headed Advanced Meat Prices. The first sentence is as : “With all that has been said against the constantly soar- of commodities, the cost of true a great deal has been said about and against it, it is also true that nothing has been done to put an end to it. Why? Simply because those who pretend to investigate do not know the cause, or they do not want the people to know the cause. One thing is self evident: The cost of living will con- tinue to increase until the cause Is re- moved. You may bet your last dollar on thut fact. The great trouble with those who complain the most do not trouble themselves to think for them- selves, but rather trust the thinking to some Investigating committee or commission, and the members know nothing about it or care less. Does it need proof? For ten vears the govern- ment at Washington has been prose- cuting the beef and meat trust, and what I8 the result? In an editorial in The Bulletin June 6, under the heading High Price of Beef, it says: “The steady soaring in the price of beef uniil it has reached the highest point has been the means of starting another investigation by the government.” Let us understand this. Who is the gov- ernment? Tt is generally supposed to Dbe the whole people. This is an error The government as constituted today is composed of about 500 persons As for the people, well, you know what Vanderbilt said of them: “The peopla be —." but the fact is the government at Washing- ton investigate and appropriate and the people pay the bills. The editorial further says: “When it gets to such a stage that the coal and beef barons place the price of commodities further and further away from the reach of the people, it is time something was done to find out why they shquld not give the people a square deal” A The fact that go many republicans prafss Wilson {8 not making him any stronger with old line democrats, A cundidate for democracy that republi- cans pralse doesn’t seem to be trus blue, What makes high prices?

The crowd in Washington has been at it for ten years, and still it grows no better fast. Here ls an admission, & vital admission, that the coal and beef barons place the price of commodities, |etc. Instead of the words “place the price” use the words “make the price.” How s it possible that those barons can make the price? There is but one answer, viz.: The private or corporate ownership of the mon hose baréns own the banks that they do business with, and congress (a part of the gov- ernment at Washington) furnishes the banks with the currency, free of ex- pense to the banks. Owning the mon- why should they not, wby can th not, make the price of all commoditie In another article from very high au- thority will be given the proof that congress furnishes the banks the cur- rency free of expense. Yes, it is time something was done to find out why congress should furnish the barons with currency and not thé people. There is but one way, and that is for the people to do their own thinking for themselves. Had they done as much thinking as they have complaining, they would have known the cause long ago. J. C.

According to the statement of the Fitchville correspondent, he says the road 1s in bad condition since gravel was put on the road several months ago. He also says a carload of trap rock arrived several months ago and the selectmen were ordered to put It on the road. That is not so. The selectmen were requested to fill the holes in the road, which they did. The date of that shipment was May 15th. Your correspondent fails to note that extensive work was done on the Fitch- ville road last fall. The road was made safe for the winter and sidewalks were built from waste material so it were possible for people walking from Fitch- ville to Yantic to do so without wad- ing through slush. The cause of the lay in reconstructing this road is caused by delay in procuring tools and material. In the first place a tar kettle had to be bullt, as the bullders had no kattle in stock. The order for the kettle was placed in March. The ketile was shipped June 13th, as the following letter will ghow: John Donovan.

You will kindly take possession of this when it arrives. C. G.
