Vermont Soldiers

Adjutant-General T. s. Peck has charge of the
State Roll of Honor" which Is now being conn
piled. He has sent out the following notice
"All Vermonters who served with the troops
from the State of Vermont. in the Regular Army
and Navy, United States colored troops, and in
organizations from other States, The relatives
and friends of deceased soldiers, requested to
send the names, rank and organizations in which
they served, with short sketch of their service TO
the AdjutaBt-G Generals Office at Burlington, Vt,
at their earliest opportunity, in order that they
may be notified of the Vermont Roll of Honor
in process of compilation, which will contain
series of illustrated Biographical sketches of Yer
monters who served soldiers and sailors in the
civil war of 1s6l-65 and in which it is desired TO
have the record of every Vermonter who served
in the of the rebellion"
Gen. Peck finds il almost impossible to get a
correct list of Vermonters residing outside of tho
State but he hopes in this way to receive many
responses to his request. OF course, the Roll OK
Honor" of which he speaks will be of the greatest
interest to Vermont soldiers, their relatives and
friends in future years.

There are now 80 Camps in good standing,
with a membership of over 1000. Many
Camps were suspended for non.reports. Sew
eral other Camps will have their charters
revoked if they do not place themselves in
good standing by April Is. The Commander
says: We made a good gain last quarter,
and have reached the 1000 mark. We are to
reach 1900 by the June Encampment, and we
have hard work before us; every one must co.
operate, or we won't succeed. All Camps are
reporting splendid work this quarter; the
letters bring very encouraging reports. But
there are those 10 suspended Camps to bring
into line, and the 80 dead oues-some of them
can be brought back to lfe-and / will work
hard to turn in 10 new Camps this quarter,
with 200 members"

Nor think they that posers need time.

And thus give hard-worked posers rest

But it was Caused
By Weakness of the Kidneys

There is only one way known to medicine or
men for promptly checking kidney troubles
and restoring these great organs to health and
strength, and that is by the use Of Warmers
Safe Cure.
1t has stood the test of time:
HI has saved thousands of lives:
1t has restored millions OF sufferers to
health;
1t has done what was never done, never
attempted before;
1t has made men stronger and healthier
Ht has made women brighter and hap
pier;
1t stands alone i'm all these qualities.
Do you not think it would be wise for you to
use it and thus avoid the dangers of the season?
Insist upon having it.
