Waiting for the Trolley.

The business men of the town gener- ally are anxiously awaiting the time when the direct electric route to Med- way, as well as the route to Wrentham and Attleboro will he opened. Many of tbe merchants declare that since the

Woonsocket Franklin line was opened

last September, there has been a mate-

rial falling off in several lines of trade here, and they say that the Woonsocket merchants acknowledge that thelr busi- ness has been greatly increased since the electrics began running between the

two places. The Franklin business men believe, however, that when the lines to

Attleboro and to Medway are in opera- tion they will receive a large share of trade from people along the routes, more thau enoughi, they say, to even up the loss sustained by Franklfu people going to Woousooket for their pur. chases.

What seems to us the funniest thing of all is that they absolutely prefer chicory in their coffee.

It is easy enough for any one to get adulterated coffee in this cuun- try. But the good housewife watches carefully that she is not thus im- posed upon.

Those who have learned ly ex- perience and wish to be absolute.y sure that they are getting pure coffee and the best coffee. without a grain of adulteration, ask for and insist upon having Chase & Sanborn's Coffees.

There is none better on the mar- ket. Every bean has been carefully selected from plantations, famous for their coffee crops,

The fact that these coffees bear the seal of Chase & Sanborn is in itself a sufficient guarantee that they are full weight and in every way perfect.

PROFESSIONAL SERVICES.

Compenantiou of the Physician and the Clergy man lu This Country,

The naked fart of inderjuste soms ret ved by the doctor is his own shele- to in the closet, but he can covrri y and privately match it with the pub- V'ied accounts of salaries with which the ministers must be satisfied. Alto- mitder it must be admitted that the niedieal man, inadequate as his earn- ras may be, is much more fortunat. than the clergyman. The latter. il true, gets his rent free, with ocension .- a: yearly donations of potatoes, has fur and the like, but his living ex. penses Dunst be with'n the limits of an home wearcely equal to that of an average mechanic with regu ar da'ly employment.

It is somewhat of a surprise to learn that a first-class ciergyman in a cour- try town averages on.x from $300 to $was yearly salary, while those in the large cities are not enough above these figures to make up the relative differ- erces 'n incidental expenses of living. The latter amounts are said to range from $1,000 to $1,200 yearly. Certainly the average doctur must do much bet. ter than th s, otberw se he must either run in delit or look for some other de- rupation. If the doctor in practice must make any living at all, he is bound to calculate on a sum ope-third more, and perhaps double that which the preach- er can grt. We are now speaking of the average man in both professions. it being well known that special sk | and recognized ability in either calling always command proportionately in creased remuneration.

In sonte respects the physician and by conditi as wh'eb naske thrire"ints more or less independent of thir spe- cia services. The doctor has the free dispensaries, the while the min ster tres his thick spurring away on the sunday bicycle, speaking for The tr.i'm with the golf bag. or read the Sunday papers for the latest Gospel b restes. Still there is one advantage for the dur- tor over the clergyman; men, women and children wio get sick and must have faith cures, wli'le the would-be Christian is too ready to postpone re- pertance until it is too late 10 do church, minister, or himself any good eitber from a spiritual or pecuniary standpoint.

With both professions there is a sen- timent of so-called charity and a sym- pathy for suffering, spiritual, mental, or physical, that hinders the more direct appeals for ready compensation which apperiain to most callings. This at- tribute certainly does not cut a figure with the lawyer, whose retainer before and after the trial is a matter entirely In his own hands as the controller of the funds in his direct keeping. In his case the client gets wbat is left before all is gone, while ofttimes the physician and preacher must wait until their legitimate share has been divided and exhausted among the numerous and Importunaie creditors who work thelr claim» on what is conventionally termed purely business principles. Thus it is that the doctor particularly is the best friend in need and the last to be considered when bis indispensable services have been conscientiously and dutifully rendered. Ir these practical days it is no longer an optional and gen- erous honorarium to be freely given. but a prosaic bill that is too frequently er.t'rely ignored. or worse. is cowardly d'sputed .- Medical Record.

DECORATING FOR RECEPTIONS

some Hints Upon the Arrangement nf Finwers, Ferns and Hangings.

Whether the decorations be few ot mary. let the position of every spray of Howers or greeas, every ribbon stream- er, every sirip of bunting, be consid- ered not only incividya.ly, but in con- nection with the entire scheme of dec- oration. Generally speaking. if but lit- .e material for ceroration is to be used it is better to concentrate it in one effective mass than to make it extend over so large a space that no part of i: can be mace effective. Thus the How- ers may all be given to the arge table. the smaller ones simply having the fronds of hardy ferns scattered orer the cloths. This will give a much bet- ter efferi that a nærager bunch of flow- ers on each table. These hardy ferts ran usna,'y be procured al ihr torist's for about tive cents a bunch of wow frords.
