~ II Is rather amusing to read the
remarks of the Democratic papers upon
the temperance procivities of the White
House. II is probable that no Demo-
crat, at least no habitual imbiber of bad
whisky, can conceive of temperance
man as other than hypocrite who
drinks freely in secret and chslks his
nose to hide the color thereof. Hence
we find the Democratic papers, in the
desrth Of more exciting topics to lie
about, filling their papers with cock
and-bull stories ofthe disgracefnl drunk
enness of the presidents family, which,
however II might be hidden from others,
could not escape the sll-seeing eye Of
the Democratic reporters.

How good Mau,s Tifa voc pralnnead
over Forty Years.

DBelow we print the story of Rev. N.
IL. Downs, Baptist preacherl in Yer
mont, who died few years since at q
good old age. We do this because
others may be in the Same condition,
and few bottles of the medicine he
originated might cure them, as 1t did
him. clowns Balsamic Elixir" is the
name to inquire for.
"From my first remembrance | have
been habitually infiammatory and sub
ject to congh and great irritation of the
lungs, from the slightest causes. Have
had in early life many fcvers, generally
attended with severe cough, which
physicians haye found difficult to man.
age. Many of my family relatives have
died with consumption. In March, 1923,
was attacked with most severe cough,
which soon confined me to my room !;
SO the most eminent physicians consider
cd my case hopeless. However, in
June, by the use OF some of the articles
of which the Balsamic Elixir is compos-
ed, my health SO improved that, with
difficulty, conld walk abroad. My
health continued to Improve, SO as to
enable me to pay some attention to my
calling. But in February, 1929, my
complaint came on more severe, which
feared would prove. fatal unless some
means could be devised to stop It's
progress. AS the spring came
on, I determined, If possible, to
find remedy for my cough.
| commenced again the uss of the
several articles Of which the Balssm-
ic Elixir is composed, and, by combining
myself 10 the use of these and receiving
no other medical aid, and by diet, ena-
bled me (though with much difficulty
TO pursue my calling, which was very
trying to my lungs. In March. 1882, I
had my last severe attack of bleeding,
during which time 1 nearly completed
the Balsamic Elixir, so that free use OF
1t few weeks entirely cured me, since
which l have never been troubled with
splitting blood and have been almost en-.
tlrely freesfrom cough, although previ-
Gus TO that had suffered as much from

since given il to hundreds for the above
complaints, and in nine cases out of ten
it has had its desired effects. And, fur.
Their, have never known Ii produce
any unhappy effect, and know il to be
perfectly harmless and safe In all cases
for which 1t Is recommended. II is,
therefore, from sense of duty to my
self, to the suffering, and love of hui
mainly that induces me to offer and rec
ommend this article. lam aware that in
30 doing II exposes me 10 the sneers of
the superstitiocs and incredulous, and,
what Is worse, to the censure of those
who have been imposed upon by many
useless articles, which have been PALM

BThe most important matter to
come before the people of the town of
Middebury at the annual March meet
ing is that of our roads. A recent
statement in our columns from Hon.
Joseph Battell showed exactly what has
been done in amount aud kind, and its
cost. The question now is whether
the voters, after seeing the vast differ
ence in favor of the improved roads
over the unimproved, will continue the
small potato policy of the past three
years, Or appropriate a sufficient sum
of money TO enable certain of our most
frequented roads to be put in the best
condition in time for the present gen.
Grafton 10 enjoy them. There are
some miles of road which ought to re-
ceive attention this year, and the work
upon them will cost considerably more
than the sum which has been appropri-
ated at the March meeting for that pur-
pose. The plea that the improving
process was only an experiment, which
has done duty to lessen appropriations
in the past, will nv longer servo, for
the experiment has proven q success.
There have doubtless been some mis-
takes made which will not be repeated
in the future, and the only question for
the people Of Middlebury to ask them
selves is, will you put your hands in
your pockets and pay for the number
less advantages which good roads give
you, or will you rather wsllow in deep
mud and jolt over sun-baked clay ruts
and ridges to the end of time? The
money heretofore has been well laid
out, and we have full value for it. We
have the men who can continue to en-
ploy it as we'll. We trust the Mig
gardly policy will prevail no longer.
