FINISHING WORK
just Enough Legislators Get Back TO

Montpelier. Dec. s.-The blizzard which
swept over central Vermont from noon
to-day until far into the night, intcrferred
greatly with railway traffic and the men,

in the House. The bill enabling the city
of Burlington to bond for $500, 900 to aid
the Rutland railroad to build shops, which
had been amended by the Senate to $50, NO.
was recalled from the House. The SEN
ate amendment was stricken off and the

also concurred in all the House amend
ments to the Barre city charter bill and
passed 1t. Tho noxious animal bill. the
Peck health bill, the cattle commission
bill all received their finishing touches
and are ready to 60 to the governor for
his signature.
The high license bill with Senate amend
ments came up in the House and was
made special order for 10 o'clock to-
morrow morning. If any discussion fol
lows 1t will probably be over the division
Of license fees.
Among the bills passed by the House
were the Senate bills authorizing tho city
Of Burlington to construct and maintain
an electric light plant and to bond there
probate In Bennington to $500. and amend
ing the statute relating to embezzlemcnt
80 that members of trades union shall be

The governor submitted to the House
and Senate the report of the trustees of
the State library.
Senate bill 1872 providing that the State

crease the bills for State printing and
Kill competition. The bill was ordered to
lie.
Mr.. Aver of Swanton introduced bill
which provides that temporary injunc
lions In liquor cases be dismissed on
proof that the prohibitory law has not
been violated. The bill was referred to
the judiciary committee
The Senate has passed the House bill
amending the charter of the city of Bur
lington and creating a board of park
commissioners.
The Senate refused to concur in one
of the proposed House amendments to

been so outrageousy twisted in Its con-
struction. The matter will be Strengthened
out without a committee of conference.

To YOUNG WOMEN.
Letter from Miss George Bryan, Sec
rotary of the Social Economic Wo-
mans Club of Memphis, Tenn.

How many beautiful young girls develor ;oto worn, hstless and hopeless
women simply because sufficient attention hos not been paid to their physical
development. No woman is exempt from physical weakness and periodic
pain, and young girls just budding into womanhood should be carefully
guided physically as well as morally.
If you know of any young lady who is sick and needs motherly
advice ask her to write to Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass, who will
give her advice free from a source of knowledge which is UNI
equalled in the country. Do not hesitate about stating details
which one may not like to talk about, and which are essential
for q full understanding of the case.
