Women Should Know It.

Many women suffer untold agony and
misery because the nature of their disease
is not correctly understood. They have
been led TO believe that womb trouble or
female weakness of some sort IS respOn-
slble for the many Ills that beset woman
kind.
Neuralgia, nervousness, headache. puffy
or dark circles urder the eyes, rheuma-
tism, dragging pain or dull ache in the
back weakness or bearing-down sensa-
ton, protuse or scanty supply of urine
with strong odOr, frequent desire to pass
1t with scalding or burning sensation,
sediment in 1t after standing in bottle or
common glass for twenty-four hours, are
signs of kidney and bladder trouble.
The above symptoms are often attribut-
ed by the patient herself or by her physi-
clan to female weakness or womb trouble.
Hence, so many fail to obtain relief. be-
cause they are treating, not the disease
itself, but reflection of the primary
cause, which is kidney trouble.
In fact, women as well as men are made
miserable with kidney and bladder
trouble and both need the same remedy.
DR.. kilmer's Swamp-Root is the great
discovery of the eminent kidney and
bladder specialist, and is easy to get at
any drug store for fifty cents or one
dollar.
To prove its wonderful merits you may
have sample bottle and book telling all
about 1t, both sent absolutely free by
mail. Kindly mention REGISTER and
send your address to DR.. Kilmer q Co.

than one hundred miles from north to
south. Westward three ranges rising in
parallel ridges beyond Lake Champlain,
the second higher than the first, and the
third towering above the second, ex-
tending in the same direction through a
distance equally great. The vast length
of these ranges, the loftiness of their
elevation, the wild variety of their sum-
mits, here arched, there waving, now
obtusely, now acutely conical, and now
disdaining all appearance to any regular
figure; the gloomy extent of the forests,
which Overspread their bosOms the val
ley between them expanding over a
breadth of thirty, forty and fifty miles,
and the magnificent lake at the bottom,
constituted a scene of grandeur and
sublimity rarely paralleled on this side
of the Atlantic"
A delegation of some of the chiefs of
the Seven Indian Nations of the pro-
vince of Lower Canada, with large es-
cort, one hundred in all, as tradition
says, visited the legislature at Vergen-
mes to press their claim for compensa-
ton for that part of Vermont, lying be-
tween IlCOuueTOSd anu Odndua line,
which they claimed the Indians had
never conveyed by treaty or other wise,
and for which they now asked to be
compensated.
Their claim was not admitted, but
those Indian chiefs could give Vernon
tiers points in lobbying, however, as
they managed to be entertained hand
+ somely at the expense of the state and
received a present of one hundred dol
lars on their departure.
The legislature adjourned on the Sth
day of November, and counted twenty
nine days service at Sl.50 per day and
six cents per mile each way for travel ;
they found that seventy-siX public acts
and forty-three private acts were all
that were necessary. In 1896 three hun
dred and thirty-nine acts were needed.
Population then lGl ,SG5, now 1872, 422.
1t would be pleasant to know if our
fathers thought republics ungrateful to
use their state house but once. The
only visit of the legislature to Vergennes
since that day was when they brought
us the Reform school in 1873. No com.
plant is found of lack of hospitality on
either occasion.

nized everywhere. After having support
ed nominal geological department for
years, it would be the height of folly to
discontinue it just after securing the SER
vices as state geologist of an authority
like Prof. George II. Perkins, who can
make the department vastly profitable
for the state. The man who proposes
to enlarge his trade does not usually
begin by ceasing to advertise what he
wants to sell, and Vermont will do well
to profit by the experience of others in
promoting the development of her
mineral resources.-Burlington Free

A Financial Renort from Vermont.

a man who has recently returned from
a tour of financial inquiry in Vermont
reports that our friends, the Yankees,
are becoming very much concerned be-
cause the banks are lowering the rate of
Interest paid depositors and the Income
from their investments is gradually be-
ing reduced. The recent failure of the
New England Loan and Trust company
shook the faith of the people in mortgages,
and the savings banks were loaded with
money, some of which is carried at a
loss. They are paying per cent inter-
est to their depositors, taxes are from
one-fourth to one-half of l per cent, and
after allowing similar amount for eX-
penses their money practically costs
them 3 per cent. There is a strong
movement to reduce the rate of interest,
and an effort will also be made this
winter in the different legislatures to re-
duce or remove the tax upon the banks,
which, of course, will be resisted by the
other yers.-Chicago Record.

WOMEN NEED NOT BE DlsoouRAosD.


The nervous tension under which most
of our women constantly live affects
the female organism seriously. Heavy
household burdens, social gayeties, work
in some commercial establishments, any
of these duties seem impossible to women
who are i'll and yet they keep up for a
time under pressure of the demands upon
them. When they do break down, the
advice and treatment they receive from
their family physician don't go to the
root of the trouble and they get no bet
ter. The great specialist In wOmen's
diseases, DR.. Greene, of Nervura fame, "a
Temple Place, Boston, Mass, has shown
thousands of women who thought them
selves hopeless invaids the way to
health. His office is open to all women
for free consultation and advice, or if
you will write him about your case, he
will advise you by mail absolutely free
of all cost and confidentially. The
glorious remedies discovered by this pro-
found physician are an invaluable boon
to women. 1t costs nothing to be put
on the road to health, and all ailing
women should write DR.. Greene at once.

ONE MEANS TO A GREATER VERMONT.

ONE MEANS TO GREATER VERMONT.
ga greater Vermont" is the commend
able and inspiriting motto of Gov
Smiths administration, and we believe
that it voices the sentiment of the legis.
lature as well as a large majority of our
people. There are comparatively few
ways, however, in which we can promote
the growth and material development of
our state. We can attract summer visit
Ors and thus promote the spreading
abroad of knowledge of the resources
and beauties of Vermont, but it is really
of much more Importance to the material
welfare of Vermont to induce men OF
wealth to invest capital in industries and
thus develop the states natural re-
sources.
No form of Investment in Vermont
offers greater inducements for both the
present and the future than the develop
ment of our mineral resources, and il
the public in general were made aware
of the large and profitaber character OF
our mineral deposits, capital by the tens
of thousands would pour into our com
monwealth. while our own men OF
wealth would awaken to the grand op,
portunities for investment lying at theiI
very doors. At the present time the
great majority of capitalists, both in the
state and out of it, are oblivlous to the
existence of these opportunities, and
their money is sent elsewhere for In.
vestment, only to disappear after many
days.
The manifest duty of the hour, there
fore, is to advertise our mineral re-
sources just as we advertise our attract
ions as a summer resort. Make known
to the world the varied and abundant
mineral resources of which Vermont
boasts, and convince capitalists that they
will reap large returns from money in,
vested in the development thereof, and
the work is done. Until that is accom-
pllshed we need not hope to see a marked
change from the present order of things.
1t is to be sincerely hoped consequent
ly that the legislature will pass the bill
providing for the small appropriation
asked for thorough investigation OF
our mineral resources and a report con
corning the same by man whose author
