WHY NOT IN NORWICH? With reference to the garden beau- tiful contest clair, N, J, which the city of Mont- conducts yearly, an in- terested New Yorker, evidently a former Norwich resident, imquires of the Bulletin, Why not in Norwich? This is a very pertinent question, par- ticularly at this time when Norwich is interested in beautification and it can well be repeated, Why mot in Norwich It is just such a plan as that which will arouse the interest of amy com- munity to do its best for the improye- ment of a city and the beautifying of its yards and parks. It is a most ommendable effort and should be given serious consideration. In Mont- clgir the plan was s d three years ago by J. N. Jarvis, a New York capi- talist, who conceived the idea of stim- lati the interest of his Montc] neighbors in the subject of landscape gardening The result has been a more sclentific treatment of both the large and the small places. Judges refer- ring to the characteristics of the grounds in their report treat of the u of trees and shrubs in the lawns. Landscape effects and flower received prizes and so keen was gardens the interest and of such a high degree the excellence of the gardens that the awarding ‘of (he trophies was most difficuit The idea has’spread to many other cities and it is not eurprising that it should. Norwich could conduct such a contest with magnificent results. Such efforts count and a contest of the kind mentioned likewise stimulates other gardens which might not be in- cluded in the competition. It is evi- dent, however, at the welfare of the Rose of New England concerns its r idents as well as its r GALLAUDET'S PERSISTENCY. There is sincere regret that Edson F. Galiaudet should have figured in such a serious accident in the devel- opment of his new monoplane. For a long time Mr. Gallaudet has con- lucted a persiste udy of aerona tics resulting in construction two many years he has a hydro-aeroplane, but unfortunate it was developed by another before his machine was perfected and he then constructed the Bullet, a monoplane of original design which gave great the or more flying machines of For had the idea of promise. That he is alive to unquestionably due to the constru tion of the monoplane, a machine which has interested all the fliers, Mr. Gallaudet has had experience the air and was a careful pilot, but his machine possessed such speed that got beyond his control, from the best understanding of the accident. He had attempted to turn, but was on aightaway flight with a faster engine than he was used to, or han other machines have. A suc- cessful flight at that time meant much to him, but his determination to con- tinue the development of the machine, & decision nec ary to accomplish his purpese, marks a characteristic of the man. The accident came in the course of devel the science and not as a grandstand display of the, h ais- ing stunts which so often prove fatal, rwich has a deep interest in his en deavors and s hoped that success will erown his efforts.

The way seems clear for the reten- tion of the tariff board after it was thought that the determination to cut it off would go through. It is with a feeling of satisfaction that better judgment has been exercised in its consideration for the benefit of the eatire country. The house has been much opposed to the board, preferring the enaction of tariff legislation with- out the investigation which will give a proper understanding of the situa- tion. This private, star chamber method of pushing through tariff measures for the benefit of certain interests is all right for those inter- ests, but it is the benefit of the great- er number which should be sought and that can best be determined by inves- tigation, such as the tariff board is for. The New York Tribune in its sup- port of the board says: “The creation of a tariff board was one of the most supstantial achievements of President Taft’s administration. It was a long step forward toward the elimination of ignorance and favoritism in tariff legislation. The board has had the | hearty support of those who think | that the time has come to put tariffs 'on a just and scientific basis. The vote in the senate revives confidence that the great gain in efficiency made whefi' the board was created will not be lightly surrendered. After the coun- try’s experience with the beneficial | work of the interstate commerce com- mission it would be a piece of Bour- bonish stupidity to do away with an agency of almost equal promise like the tariff board.” The tariff board is recognized by many of the democrats as a necessity and indications point to the house ielding from its narrow view taken of the situation. It is a wise course. BRING THEM TO NORWICH. The suggestion that an excursion be arranged for the delegates to the Atlantic Deeper Waterways conven- tion to be held at New London in Sep- tember, from that city toe Norwich, is founded on good judgment. With delegates there from all over the coun- try, many of them have undoubtedly seen much of the beauty of America, but a trip up the river to the Rose of New England by boat would cer- tainly be a treat second to few which could be offered in the way of pictur- esque landscape The Thames river, winding through the hills, is a second Hudson, with its setting of beauty and a natural attraction worthy of bring- ing to the notice of strangers Trav- elers who have seen much of the world are loud in their praise of the Thames river, a river of clear, sparkling water so different from' the muddy streams to be found throughout the country The idea is worth the effort of Nor- wich people to endeavor to encourage its adoption As a part of the pro- gramme of entertainment no better raction could be provided in the way of sightseeing and it is certain he representatives of Atlantic coast- line cities should not be allowed to re- turn without a view of the Fair Rose ang the advantages it possesses.

N oo ey e o8 ‘When Perkins reached his suburban home one warm spring evening he found his wife waiting for him with a cheerful countenance and a card covered with figures and dollar sigms. “The man was here today and meas- ured the house for the screens,” she said, “and he left this estimate ' I thought I'q better show it to you first, but he said he'd go right ahead and make up the screens, because he knew that was the best we could do.” “What man?” demanded Perkins. “Screens? Who wants screens so early in the season? I don't know anything about any screens man!” “Why, he's the regular man—from Hosik's general store,” she explained with the patience that wives learn to possess. “He says he measures ev- erybody for the screens every sea- son.” “Where are the screens that were on this house last summer?” inquired Perkins, with as much heat as though he shrewdly suspected that his wife had made away with them to help along the proprietor of the village gen- eral store. “I don’t know,” she said gently. “I suppose they were thrown away by the people who lived here before us. All T know is that the man says it| will cost $12.60 to fix up all the win- dows and the two doors—more than that if you want g fancy front door.” “Not any of that for me!” Perkins observed grimly. “I didn't move out here with the sole idea of maintain- {ng Hosik in the luxury to which he has been accustomed. Twelve dollars! 1 wonder if that old pirate happens to know this is the bargain sale sea- | son for screens at every department store in. the city! 1 wonder if he thinks we never go to town and don’t read the newspapers! I'll get screens enough to plaster this place for just about half the money.” Mrs., Perkins ventured a remark to the general effect that the expert from Hosik's- had 'put in a considerabje portion of a wearing day measuring the windows and doers and that Per- kins might discover he had undertaken quite a job if he went at it. Perkins, | however, brushed these objections | aside with the scorn which a wife's | suggestions frequently receive and seldom deserve. | With a limp yellow tape measure he | set to work measuring window frames immediately after dinner and when twilight fell he might have been seen | half way out of the pantry window trying to get definite information as t0"its linear dimensions.

' when the job was dome, but he ex- ulted in thoughts of the ‘triumph he ‘was arranging at the expense of Ho- sik and Hosik’s man. Indeed, he had a wild idea of going to Hosik’'s store and informing its proprietor that at least one suburban resident would not put up with extortion. However, Per- kins decided that he was too warm and fagged out to undertake this ex- tra exertion. The next day Perkins presented his list of measurements to an apathetic man who seemed to have taken root in the screen department of a city store. ‘“I'd like to know what these screens will cost,” said Perkins in an ofthand way. “Made up and deliv- ered, of course.” The man looked Perkins over care- fully as if in doubt as to whether it| was worth while bothering with such a person. Then he went away and was gone a long time. Finally reappeared. He was studying a sheet of figures with an intentness leading to the suspicion that figures were somewhat of a novelty to him. “Do you want all of these made up?” he asked. “Yes, ves,” snapped Perkins. “What do you think I gave you the dimen- sions for—exercise in arithmetic?" “Well, they'll be $19.12 he an- nounced. “And the hardware is ex- tra.” Perkins snaiched the list from him and stalked haughtily out. In the next two hours he received estimates of $24.50, $20.80 and $17 on those screens from various establish- ments and at each place the gentle- manly salesman impressed upon Per- kins the fact that he would have the joy of putting in the screens and hang- ing the doors himself. That opened up a new line of thought to Perkins. He | went to his office and called up his wife on the telephone. “Did Hosik's man say anything about putting in those screens and -hang those doors?” he asked. “If he with the job.” “I'm 8o glad you called up,” said Mrs. Perkins. “The man came this morn- ing to tell me that he'd made a mis- take in adding up his figures and the total would be $23.60 instead of $12.60.” Perkins glared at the transmitter and conquered a desire to bite it. “Does he hang 'em ” he demanded “Yes, he says that includes every- thing,” she said, “and Mrs. Miiler says——" “Tell him to go ahead!"” roared Per- kins, cutting short Mrs. Miller's opin- ion of the transaction.—Chicago News. tle their issues must have pleased Jack Johnson.

Mr, Editor: Once more we will quote from that indisputable authority, the Hon. G. Spaulding, on the redemp- tion of national bank bills. At that time there was talk of establishing an assorting house to assort out the dif- ferent bank bills from different parts of the country and send them to their bank for redemption. Mr. Spaulding had this to say: “In the first place, it is mnot necessary tq assort and send home this currency for redemption so long as it is required by the people to carry on the business operations of the country. Every time a hundred doliar bill pa from one person to another it is a practical redemption of it by the person who takes it. Every time a merchant at Chicago pa to a farmer $500 in national currency for a carload of wheat, the farmer by the operation redeems such national currency, not in greenbacks, nor in gold, but in a com- modity better than either, namely, wheat, a staple article useful to all So every merchant in New York that sells a bale of cotton goods and re- it , re- h .currency, not in the way redeem it, but in cotton gouL\ ich ar better, because it performs the e functions of money by facilitating the legitimate sale of commoditi So ev time that a merchant or manufacturer pays his internal revenue tax to the United Btates collector in national currency the government redeem by receiving and disch So every mechanic or laborer that r ceives fonal curre for his ser- vices reCeems such currency by the labor rerformed. So it will be seen that just so long as the national cur- 1ency is ally redeemed every Gay in its p ge from hand to hand in the payment of commodities and services and in the ramified operations of trade and business, both with the government pe ;1» whose op- erations it gr fac not the nghlc—N “necest ing to the expensive and ri opera- tion of assorting and sending it home for redemption.” Now, Mr. Reader, do a little thinking and r on your own account. In the first piac the bank Hills are safe, and why? Be- cause the government guarantees that every dollar of it shall be paid. A question, if the government makes the bank bills good, why can it not make its own bills as good? A slight diffor- ence, you will notice. While the gov- érnment’s own bills would be paid i circulation without interest to the peo- ple giving service and products, while the bank bills are loaned into circula- tion to business men at interest, wniic government taxcs the business an. labor to pay interest to the banks un Found Relief From Eczema After Suf- fering 20 Years.
