Beware
OF the Knife.

Mr.. Lincoln Nelson, of Marshfeld, Mo
writes: "For six years l have been
sufferer from a scrofulous affection Oh
the glands of my neck, and all eforta
of physicians in Washington, D. ca
Springfield, ILL.,, and St, Louis failed to
reduce the enlargement. After sis
months constant treatment here, me-
physician urged me to submit to a re-
moval of the gland. Atthis critical mos
ment friend recommended S.S.S-.
and laying aside a deep-rooted prem
dice against all patent medicines, be-
gan its use. Before had used one l9t-
tie the enlargement began to disappeHT,
and now ii is entirely gone, though ana
not through with my second bottle yet
Had / only used your S.S.S. long ago,
would have escaped years of misery
and saved over $3.50" y
This experience is like that OF all who
suffer with deep-seated blood troubles
The doctors can do no good, and even
their resorts to the knife prove either
fruitless or fatal. S.S.S. is the only
real blood remedy; it gets at the root OF
the disease and forces it out perr'a-
nently.

It is reported that ON several occasions

1t is reported that on several occasions
within a few years, during dry time,
several parties were obliged to drive
their stock quite distance for water,
and even draw water by teams tor
domestic uses. At present there are
number of houses not supplied with
drinking water only as it is carried in
pals from neighbors. Nearly all people
are out of a supply during dry time.
Probably no place of its size in the state
has suffered more from a lack OF sufficient
water supply during dry time than the
village of Danville Green.
Mr.. Foster, the reliable expert, writes
that Mr.. Woodbury's plan would fur
nish an abundance of water for fire pro-
lection, would supply the railroad com,
pany, run every coffee mill in town, and
provide plenty of power to run the
creamery, as well as an abundance OF
water for all the wants of the whole
people of the village. He adds that every
man that objects to the water now will
regret his opposition if by that means
the scheme is defeated. Will you, the
people of Danvile Green, let the present
opportunity pass and suffer mistaken
prejudice to defeat the best opportunity
of your lives to perform an act that will
be a lasting benefit to every person that
now, or may hereafter, reside at Danville
Green You have village that possesses
more natural attractions to the visitor
who comes to pass the summer with you
than any other town or village that can
be named in this part OF the country. Do
you not think it worthy of your atten-
ton to make some effort to induce people
to come with their families to reside in
Danville during the warm summer
months? Every family that comes must
necessarily spend several hundred dol
lars, and the farmer, the butcher, the
grocer and other tradesmen each gets his
share. Even if the visitor goes TO a
hotel supplies must be furnished, and the
benefit to you is the same.
Some people talk of moving out of the
district if water is bought; Others say
that all the nonresident stock owners
will move it away. Now in all candor
what better means could be contrived tC
protect the bank property than a goot
supply of pressure water near their build
ings? And the same is true in regard tt
every dwelling in the village. A mar
that would move to escape any as just
taxation as this plan involves would moi
be missed in any community. His money
may be as good as any mans, but hi
selfshness is too great to depend upor
him for charity or contribution
towards any public improvement.

formal complaint and the penalties OF
the statute are applied to it.
The average loss ratio in this state to
premiums received for 10 years, between
1873 and 1895, is given as "a, the high
est 124 in 1875, and the lowest 39 IN
1874. The total amount paid for losses
in Vermont during the same period was
$6,S16,1 40.
The life insurance interest in the state
is a growing one and its Importance
cannot be overestimated. During the
wear past the very large sum of S1,O23,-
1915 was paid in premiums, by the
insured, to the level premium companies
alone, and the assessment companies
collected more than $121 900 additional.
1t is stated that statistical compilation,
made by an actuary, shows that Yer
mont contains a larger number OF lite
insurance policy holders in proportion to
its voting population than other state in
the Union. 1t is a matter of increasing
satisfaction that we have within our
borders two companies whose record for
conservatism and good management
commend them to confidence wherever
they are known, and whose business is
annually advancing.

VERMONT'S FIRE RECORD.
Less Extensive for the Past Year Than for 81

lcoS ENtcuSiNc hui tut EuSe Cur IMAM ioi iolo'
Insurance Commissioners Chauncey
w. Brownell and Henry F. Field have
submitted to the governor a report of
the business done by various insurance
companies of the state. Some extracts
are of interest.
To His Excelency, the Governor:
The fire record for the past year has
been less extensive than that of its imme-
date predecessor, but covers a total Of
three hundred and twenty-nine fires and
involved AN estimated property loss of
some $621 900, upon which the liability
of insurance companies was $376,6S9.
Compared with the fire waste of 1895,
this is reduction ofabout SO per cent in
the property loss, and something above
So per cent in the insurance loss.
The most prolific known cause of fires
during the year has been the detective
chimney and stove pipe, which, according
to the statistics Of L. S. Hayes, are
chargeable in 81 cases. Incendiarism
comes next with responsibility for 43
fires, and 81 fires occurred from unknown
causes. The largest monthly aggregates
ofinsurance loss came in April, Septem-
Der and December, while the heaviest
total of property losses took place in
January and June, slightly exceeding
SS1 900. in each instance Farm property
suffered the greatest destruction, and the
figures for the insurance cost are given as
S,S12, the property involved being es-
mated at $159,152. Mercantile risks
cost the insurance companies $S1, S47,
while the property waste was $101 $50.
Manufacturing interests and saw mills
valued at upwards of $150,0O0 were
destroyed, upon whick an insurance loss
of $4,000 was paid. The distribution
of this property depletion and insurance
loss is shown from the following table
Tor which we are indebted to the careful
formulation of Mr. HAYES.

ADVERTISING RATES.

The Wall Street News scores Con-
gress none too harshly when it says,
1--WE sympathize with every people
on earth in trouble; hence we speak
in behalf Of the citizens of the Ameri-
can republic. For over two years
we have been going to the dickens,
and Congress has been saving Vene-
zuela, Cuba, Dom Paul, the Pohang
of Mahang, Pasha Said, AS Wag and
other. We have been making assign
ments, settling for 10 cents on the
dollar and issuing new government
obligations, while Congress has been
talking about freeing Cuba. These
things are calculated to make the
average American sick and have a
desire to go down to Washington
and play football with Congress.

Germany has passed a law provid-
ing that no one shall emigrate from
the empire except after permission
shall have been granted, and the bill
goes into effect April 1, 1898. 1t is
partly a military measure to keep
the young men from leaving the
country to escape military duty.
Germany has more rules and regula-
tions to the square inch than any
country in the world, and we have
our doubts if this new law will be
scrupulously regarded.
