The fong period of dry weather has put ‘the woods in shape for disastrous dires once they get started, and the Ereatest amount of protection which wcan be given such property lies in the care that is exercised in preventing them. Invariably such fires result from icarelessness. There is a disregard of other people’s possessions to such an ‘extent that an insufficient amount of attention is devoted to leaving them in the same condition as when enter- #d. If matches must be lighted, fires started, cigar or cigarette butts dis- ‘carded, such things should be done with a full realization of the danger involved and adequate steps taken to see that by no chance such actions can be followed by costly fires. Woods and even brush iand with only young trees represent an invest- ‘ment upon the part of the owner which deserves the greatest respect. The character of the property does Dot warrant negligence or careless- ness for loss always follows a visit by fire, and especially when it occurs in well wooded tracts. Also the men- ace which such fires are to dwellings und other 'brufldln‘- cannot be over- looked. Those who vislt the woods, wheth- er hunting or otherwise, are by no means care-free if they realize their responsibility and are at all apprecia~ Live of the privileges permitted them. It requires little to guard against fires but it saves someone else a whole lot bf trouble and financial loss, NEW YORK’S PRIMARY.

It calls for the sacri- fice upon the part of Carransza of his ambitions to be at the head of the Mexican government and from late re- ports there are indications that he is Inclined to enter into an agree- ment whereby neither he nor Villa will seek or accept the presidency. There is every reason Wwhy they should come to such an understand- ing. It is time it was realized that little 1s to come from the maintenance of a series of revolutions. Regardless | had of what may be proclaimed patriotism is the last thing considered in such a policy. The need of Mexico today and it has been so for a long time, is 2 period of peace whereby it can get onto its feet, put into action some of the reforms which have been too long delayed and set out for the main- tenance of a stable governmept, hav- welfare: ing for ite object the national of the republle. A getting together such as would mean the end of the trouble between Villa and Carranza and a unien of their interests and activities for the NORWICH BULLETIN, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1914 “What a dear little pal she'd make if only she'd forget those cityfled ways,” regretfully mused John Gra- ham as his train puffed away from the little New Hampshire station, where from the platform a brown eyed girl stood waving a rather wistful good- e And ‘“T'm awfully sorry he's gone, but it will be bully not to_have to pose sny longer; won't it Jack, old ¢” exclaimed the girl as she Nud the top of her collie’s sleek brown head, and climbed back into the old-fashioned bugsgy. John Graham had spent a month at Hilda's home. Ambitious Mrs, Page had foreseen all sorts of matrimonial possibilities in the arrival at the farm of the energetic young lawyer. In a house where the only other boarders were elderly. dignified ladies of ample fncomes and still more ample persons, there was no telling what might hap- pen if things were managed rightly. Accordingly Hilda had been fitted Gut with a generous supply of “stylish” elothes. and excused from all house- hold ks that she might be free to mnd l]l her time entertaining “Mr. Graham.” She had been utterly mi erable in her new and enforced role. In the first place, as she informed her IN BROWN OCTOBER. dient, Hilda had sat upon the veranda and embroidered for several hours each day—and played primly proper pieces upon the old piano each eve- ning until at last the month was over and she had driven her guest to the station, In spite of all the hardships his coming had inflicted Hilda had really liked the quiet young man, and as the weeks went by and September’s golden days grew into October’s ruddy glory she found herself vaguely lone- Jy and discontented. Unconsciously she began to watch more eagerly for the coming of the old mail man in his rickety carriage every evening at 5, and her disappointment became keener as the days flew by and no word came from the city. “I certainly tried to make him like me. But of eourse 2 country girl wouldn’t interest him,” she reflected sadly. “I've got you anyway, you dear old thing! You'n me is chums; aren't we old man?’ she exclaimed rapturously as Jack laid’a beseeching paw on her knee in mute appeal. “You want to go for a run, don’t you? I'll race you to the oak tree,” and with a laugh she was off, her brown hair streaming gally behind in the wind. And for a time John Graham was forgotten. mother, she didn't want to marry any- body!

POSTAGE TO SOUTH AMERICA. ‘While the question of increasing our trade with South America is occupy- ing such an Important place in the business channels of the country, there is advanced the proposition of reducing our postal rates to that con- tinent from five.to two cents, the same as with the important countries of Europe. While we are striving for closer relations this is one way in which an advance ean be made, but it is a change which should receive the proper amount of consideration as to just what is involved. It must be realized that a stimu- lation of business is not dependent upon such a postal change, else it could and would have received at- tention before this. That it will be an excellent thing to accomplish can- not be questioned, for it is a highly necessary ald to business and with the effort for an increase in business and business facilities, the change in the postal rate has an important part which it can play. Though there is little difference between the two cent and the five cent rate the former brings the business of the coumtry nearer to the whole continent of South | disi America, and it is time that the two continents were brought as close as possible in every way. The merits of the proposition should receive full attention and be accom- panied by such action as will ad. vance the interests of this country. As to this country such a change should make its appeal equally strong to those countries in the southern part of the hemisphere, EDITORIAL NOTES. That the son of Kalser Willlam is reported shot by a German bullet tells its own story. According to Sir Edward Carson the war has done nothing yet to remove the Ulster situation.

The man on the corner says: No matter how much fault we find with human nature, there is no way of get- ting along without it. In view of the opening of the hunt- ing season in Maine a few “safety first” signs promiscuously placed might not come amiss. ‘While there is so much talk eireu- lating about unpre se, it is well to remember that war\is not the only {king which should be considered.

Mrs. Page, busy with her preserving and preparations for a long winter spent in “hookin’ found no time for “gaddin’ and gazin’ There was small profit in that sort of thing, she claimed, and Mrs. Page was nothing if not a good business Wwoman. In a busy office on one of Boston's busiest streets a quiet young man found time to raise his head from his work occasionally and gaze longingly out over the smokestacks and roof tops to where in a tiny square of park- way a lone maple tree was palely do- ing its best to announce that October had come. Into his eyes there fre- quently came a dreamy look of long- ing as he mentally pictured a_station platform upon which a slender girl stood waving goodbye.

There is some- thing altogether alluring about the scent of an apple warmed by the sun —something that brings to wind vi- sions of neat white farmhouses, fresh made cider, and big open fires at eve- ning. John Graham bit a big bite out of his apple. ‘And with the second bite his mind was made up. Pulling a cal- endar toward him he consuited it hastily. “Let’'s see, Monday's a holiday isn't 1t Miss Johnson?” he asked of his stenographer, “Yes sir,” she_ smiled. “Well, this is Frida; take a run up to ew Hampshire over the week end.

And so it came about that as John Graham was walking briskly through the familiar woodpath just at sunset time that afternoon he came upon a pathetic little bundle of sobs over which a brown collie stood guard, vainly striving to administer comfort with the tip of a cold wet nose.
