MIR EDITOR:-I have read with much
interest the letter printed in your issue
of last week on Prohibition VS.. License
sent you by that distinguished gentle
men, Mr.. w. w. Swiney of Vergeuues
Permit me through the courtesy of your
columns to ask Mr.. SWincy few simple
questions that have come into my mind
since reading his valued article.
LIST. Were the purported facts contain
ed in your article referred to above ar
ranged to suit yourself without regard to
the truth In the matter!
I'd. Were you mindng your own bust
ness when you gave US the history of
your checkered career both here and in
the state across the lake?
3D.. You speak In your article of go.
irg into cellar with gentleman and
| finding there four barrels of home
brewed liquor. Were you or were you
not after hard cider when you made this
! pilgrimage into the cellar"
have spent much time in the state of
New York, and have spent several weeks
at the executive mansion; | have travel
ed as well as yourself, and have always
taken pleasure in minding my own bust
ness.
4th. Please let me know which is be st
for the country, that the people should
rule or some one else?
| remember when the question of IL
cense was thrown before the public in
1852. 1t was then decided no | thought
fifty years time enough to try the eXper.
iment of no license?
The prohibltory law, in my mind, does
not prohibit. AT least it never has dur
ing this experimental period Of over fifty
years. Is it not better to legalize vice
than to aid and abet our citizens in the
preparation of crime. Rum will be
sold.
Let me make one appeal to my friend;
and neighbors before | close: Permit
this question of license or no license tc
60 once more to the freemen of the state
Please answer the above question:
through the columns of this paper. Il
you have no answer, "forever after hole

This Observance of Pre-Memorial Day in
Our schools.
Since its institution in 1894 cOnstan-
thy growing interest attaches to the OBJ
servance of Pre- Memorial Day in our
public schools. Teachers. school officers
and citizens are coming to appreciate
the invaluable opportunity that this day
offers to enkindle in the hearts of child
rem and youth right civic sentiments and
high patriotic purposes, which eyer
make for better citizenship. The near
approach of May 30 again reminds us
of serious duty and golden opportun-
ity. Any teacher worthy to have charge
of Vermont boys aod girls will provide
Loyalty for the appropriate and inspiring
observance of this day. The State Sup
erntendent of Education has sent out a
booklet of As pages as an aid to teachers
in preparing suitable exercises. About
twenty pages refer to history and life
in Vermont, and contain much matter
of more than ordinary interest. A copy
should have reached every teacher. If
any teacher has failed to receive a copy,
she will receive one by sending to the
State Superintendent, Montpelier.

LETTER TO CHAS. n. MATHEWS.
Mill ERI-RN VIZ

Dear Sir: A good many people will see
your house in the course of the next ten
years. We want it to show what Devoe
lead and zinc will do. We should like
you to paint 1t, and then not paint it
aga n for ten years-unless it needs re-
painting.
We'd like such sample as that in
every town in the county-with notice
about it in the town paper "Mr. Mathews
house was painted ten years ago with
Devoe lead and zinc, and has never been
reprinted. The color is not so bright
as it was but the paint is as perfect a
coat as ever, to keep out water"
A good lead and oil Job is expected to
last three years; it is good one that
lasts three years; it generally does not.
Devoe lead and zinc lasts twice as long,
if not IF you have any fault to find
with this paint, either now in putting it
on, or hereafter in the wear, tell your
dealer about It..
"We authorize him to do what is right
at our expense"
We want your house as sample, and
yon as witness.
Yours truly.

Paine'S Celery Compound


Is Daiiy soring Precious Lires litter
Pronounced Failures of Physicians.
The months just passed of the present
year have brought bereavement and dark
clouds of sorrow to many homes in our
land. Fathers, mothers, sisters, and
brothers have been forever removed by
the grim reaper, death. The large ma
iority of such could have been saved had
their friends given them Paine's Celery
Compound, instead OF the worthless med
icines the sick ones were forced to swal-
low.
In many families a too slavish obedi-
ence to medical dctation kept the true
life saver from the sick and dying ones.
Past records of marvellous cures and
victories wrought by Paine's Celery
Compound were ignoredby medical men,
in word, it was unprofessional in their
estimation to introduce the life giving
Compound.
All. Remorse is now doing its quiet
but effective work, and those most close.
ly interested are suffering for their
neglect.
viii you, dear reader, allow some dear
relative or friend to pass from life with
out making an effort to save the perish
ing one by Paine's Celery Compound
The virtues and powers of DR.. Phelps
prescription are wondrousy far reaching
and mighty. Even though your friends
have suffered long, and have come tC
that point where the physician is help
less to save, even then. there is blessed
hope if paine's Celery Compound is used
The desperate cases cured in the past
and the number of precious lives saved
is the bright, the living proof, that
