ExerOises to en End.

The School of Officers of the Vermont

About IS of the officers left on the electric
cars for Fort Ethan Allen at 0 o'clock to
pay their respects to Major l.. Il. Morris,
commanding first squadron, Sd United
States cavalry, and the other regular Of
ficers at the Post Major Morris escort
ed his guests to the riding hall where

The officers then took tho train for their
homes.
Ferdinand NJ. Crosby OF St. Johnsbury,
who was elected first lieutenant of Com
pany ID, First regiment. on the 9Th inst,
presented himself before the board yes
terday afternoon and passed most sat
isfactory examination. He will probably
be commissioned by Gov. Woodbury. at an
early day.
Many declare that this school has been
the most instructive one ever held. The
officers have shown themselves quite pro-
ficient IN the drill regulations. and have
worked with will While all of the
gentlemen have done well, too much credit
cannot be given Capt. Herbert II. luther
ly, First United States cavalry, assistant
inspector general Vermont National
Guard, for the faithful. untirng and ef-
ncient service which he has put into the
work, and in which he as been ably as
sisted by First Lieut.. Henry w. Hovey,
24th United States Infantry. professor OF
military science and tactics at Norwich

instructive lesson to the officers In his

Gen. Estey, who was in charge of the
school, was assisted in his duties by Col.
Bond, Lieut.. Col. Watson, Majors Evans,
Clark and Mimms of the First regiment,
and Capt. Weld of the Battery
1t has been said by those who know,
that with the facilities for instruction
which can be gained from the U. >,
troops and the splendid rife range at Fort
Ethan Allen the Vermont National Guard
has an opportunity second to none in the
country, and the young soldiers should
not be slow in taking advantage of every
thing of this kind.

TALK ON TUBERCULOSIS.
First Medical Lecture in tho Y. NJ. c. A.
Course by DIR. +. a. Rich.

The first of a series OF six medical talks
which have been arranged for the winter
at the Y. Nj. C. A. was held Friday evening
and If it can be taken as a criterion the
talks will be eminentlyssuccessful and de-
serving of a large audience.
The address last evening was on Tuber-
culosis given by Dr. f. \. Rich, V. s., and
was listened to with close attention by
large audience many of the members of
the Dairy school, which is now in session,
being present. DIR. Rich has had large ex-
perence with the disease, having been
employed by the State Board of Agricul-
ture for three years in testing herds
thought to be affected with the disease.
A few of the many points of interest spo-
ken of were: THE disease affects any
and sometimes many of the organs OF the
body and 100000 OF our people die annu-
ally of 1t, In measure 1t is not only
durable but also preventable. About one
of seven die of tuberculosis of the lungs.
There are two main forms Of the disease,
acute and chronic, the former being rapid
and the latter ranging in time Of develop
ment from a few weeks to several years.
The disease is known TO be contagious and
was once thought 10 be hereditary. The
exact cause was discovered in 1882 and Is
small germ or mcrobe. The disease is
now known TO be due to the presence OF
bacteria and is not hereditary.
| The form found in cattle is known as
| bovine tuberculosis. During the past
summer and fall about 1000 head have been
| tested in this State about per cent or
which have been condemned and killed.
Notwithstanding this, with the exception
of Maine, Vermont has the smallest
amount of the disease of any of the New
England States In the West the dis
ease Is very rarely found and 1t Is thought
to have been brought into this country
with imported and fancy stock. Hogs
which have been fed the milk from dis
eased herds are often found to be affected
and fowls and other small animals con-
tract the disease. The bacteria may cas-
lily be transmitted in the milk to man.
Three herds supplying Burlington with
milk have been tested. OF the first 10 per
cent were killed of the second 20 per cent
were condemned and out of q in the other
herd 90 were affected. Many of the other
herds which supply milk here have not
been tested. One of the largest will be
tested next week. The meat from dis
eased cattle is much less injurious than
the milk because 1t is cooked, which de-
stroys the bacteria.
The test used consists in the injection
Of a small portion of tuberculin just
above the shoulder and taking the tenn
perature before the test and at intervals OF
two hours. Ten hours after the injection
OF the tuberculin. If the animal Is affect
ed the temperature rises very perceptibly.
Several photographs of diseased parts
were exhibited and several questions were
asked by various people, showing the in
terest felt in the subject.

out feeling tired. People are surprised at
my vigorous appearance and activity,
which l believe, is the result of my using
Paine's celery compound. 1t has cured
me of constipation, and Is of great help to
me when over-tired.
Gratefully yours.
Mrs. Emyle Hyde Grinnell."
Paine's celery compound Is especially
valuabl2e for recruiting the strength and
spent energies of men and women advan-
ced In years 1t is the one preparation
considered worthy the name of a true of a
nerve food and blood remedy by physicians
throughout the country. 1t Is prescribed
by them in every State in the Union to
tone up the system, regulate the nerves
and restore health and strength.
Nothing in the past has ever approached
1t in power of building up weakened nerve
tissues and giving strength to the tired
body. In severe cases of persistent head
aches, dyspepsia. neuralgia and sleeplcss-
ness, due to nervous feebleness, Paine's
celery compound has a record of rapid
and lasting cures that embraces every
city and town in the wide sweep of the
United States.
It's remarkable power over disease lies
in its active replacing of WORKOUT parts
by new, healthy ones, and in its healing
and purifying action among the most min
ute tissues of the body. 1t searches out
the weak parts at once, and sets to work
to build them up. The tired body feels the
strengthening effects of Paine's celery
compound forthwith.
Give the nerves a chance to recover, and
the entire body will regain it's health and
strength. Take Paines celery compound.

1t is an uncommon thing to learn of per-
sons reaching the age of Mrs. Emyle
Hyde Grinell. and years of good health
such as hers come only to those who make
use of the very best means of keeping.
WELL
No one will wonder that the bright-eyed
old lady, whose mind to-day Is as alert
and clear as ever. should be anxious for
others>to try Paine's celery compound.
Mrs. Emyle Hyde Grinnell was born in
Bennington, VT, July 6, 1896. and Is to-day
living with her granddaughter. the wife
of Martin Fowler OF Colchester. VT, a
beautiful town near Fort Ethan Allen.
Her father was a farmer and hotel keeper
and she lived upon the farm until her mar
riage. Mrs. Grinnell has none of the in
hrmities of old age. She rises at daylight
works about the house, and when the
weather will permit walks outdoors. Her
cycsight is so good that she threads a
needle and spends many hours in crochet
ing and doing fancy work. She keeps
abreast of the times, and Is remarkably
Well-informed upon many subjects. She
declares that she does not feel any older
than she has for years and If people half
her age enjoyed such good health as she
they would consider themselves fortunate
She has seven children, four boys and
three girls, two of whom are living to-day

The new woman is having hard time
with her bifurcated garments In the West.
A police Judge who has undertaken to de-
fine the situation and decide how far she
may go In adopting the garb OF man
says that she may wear boomers, pro-
vided they are cut full Otherwise they
don't go. In San Francisco there Is an
ordinance that prohibits any one from ap-
pearing on the street in any dress not be-
longing to his or her sex, and young
woman was arrested for riding on a wheel
In knickerbockers. The Judge held that
knickerbockers were garments that be-
longed exclusively to the male sex, and he
intended to preserve them for Its excu-
sive use II 1t could be done by law. He In
timated that had the garments worn by
the young lady been a little more bout
FAINT they would have passed muster as
boomers, but he laid 1t down as an UNI
alterable principle that boomers, In the
eyes of the law. must bag at the knees
