Prizes Awarded.

Early in the fall the St. Adams Remedy
Co. offered four prizes to the tour druggists
who should make the best window display of
their goods. Druggists all over the country
responded, and entered into competition.
Probably never before has such pains been
taken to make handsome window displays as
these druggists have made in their efforts to
bring Green Mountain Renovation to the
front. 1t is not only the liberal cash prizes
that were offered that aroused this enthusi-
asm among the druggists. 1t was full as
much the fact that they are all great believers
in Smiths Green Mountain Renovator which
has been SO we'll known for over 40 years.
This great blood and nerve remedy, which
in equally as much by druggists and doctors
as by the many people whom it has benefited,
gave them most excellent subject on which
to use their skill.
1t is unnecessary for us to speak of the hum
dreds of beautiful and artistic displays that
have been given. The greatest care was nee
essary to decide to whom prizes should be
awarded. The following gentlemen were
chosen as judges
Lieut. Gov Fisk, Isle LaMotte, Vt; Col.
George I. Childs, Editor st. Adams Messen-
ger, st. Adams, Vt. Alfred butcher, Mem
Der State Board Pharmacy, Ernest Alexan-
der, Mgr. MacLeod's Drug Store, St. Adams,
Vt.
That such wel1-known men should evince
their interest in this matter and consent to
decide this important question in itself shows
the high standing and the recognized merit
of the St. Adams Remedy Co., who manufac-
ture this best of all specifics. The prizes,
which after careful investigation were award
ed, we're as follows:
First prize, 800, W. H. Zottman & Co.,
Burlington, VT.
Second prize. $50, Cady's Drug Store,
Third Prize, $25, W. W. White, Richford
Springs, Vt.
Fourth prize, 1926, J G. Brady, Fall River,
Mass.
Though many of the unsuccessful Compel
itors regretted that they had not been able to
obtain one of the prizes,yet they all acknowl-
edged that the contest was fair one and
have evinced their qualification that they en-
tered into the competition as keenly as they
did, as we hear from every side of the in
crease in sales not only of this popular rem
edy but of other articles in the store to which
people were attracted by the handsome dis
play, so that the proprietors were more than
paid for the trouble to which they had gone.

A Curious Case of SOmnambulism.
The modern novelist is very prone to
found his plots on the doings of sleep
walkers and hypnotists, but, as usual,
"truth is stranger than fiction" and
his efforts are outdone by actual occur
rences. Here, for example, is true
story from France of a gentleman miss
ing from his bedroom packet contain
ing more than $4,000 worth of bonds.
The thief could not be traced, but short
ly afterward the mistress of the house,
who had taken the robbery to heart even
more than her husband, was taken to a
doctor, for she was suffering from nerv-
GUS prostration.
The doctor, firm believer in hyp-
notism, was told of the robbery and,
putting two and two together, hypnotic
ed his patient and extorted confession
from her that she had taken the bonds
and buried them in the garden. There,
upon search being made, they were
found, but the lady is as yet quite igno-
rant of the fact that she herself was
the person who hid them. -Chamb ers
