Gentlemen:
Yours very truly,
BENJAMIN F. SHATTUCK.

If there is any doubt in your mind as
to your kidneys put small amount of
your urine, on rising in a bottle, and let
it stand twenty-four hours. If you find it
milky or cloudy, if brick dust settings
or small particles float in it, your kidneys
need instant attention. No matter how
many other remedies you may have tried
and found useless, remember DIR. Pettin-
gill's great modern remedy, Kidney
Wort Tablets, is as far in advance of
old-fashoned liquid remedies as the
modern trained surgeon is superior to
the ignorant travelling "bonesetter" of
thirty years ago.

ENFORCE THE LAW

The new liquor law gives fully as much
of a chance for argument as did the pro-
hibitory law. lnevery community there
is class who are opposed to the enforce
ment of the law. They kick and howl
whenever man is arrested for intoXica-
ton and are ready for excuses of all
kinds for the foolish victim and charging
the officials with all sorts of dishonest
practices in their efforts to enforce the
law Before the law went into effect it
was claimed that it would be enforced,
and the friends of license, as well as the
friends of temperance. should now see to
it that the law is rigidly and impartially
enforced,-Bristol Herald.
THE ANSWER.
In answer to the question, when is it
going to rain :" local weather prophet
replied can't tell you; but | do
know that we are two months nearer
having rain than we were two months
ago That's about all the consolation
there is to be derived from the situation.

KIDNEY REMEDIES
Alcohol Condemns All
Liquid Kidney Remedies.
Kidney-Wort Tablets, the Modern
Acknowledged Specific.

If your kidneys are working with
difficulty and not fltering the blood, a
true specific like Kidney-Wort Tablets
will safely arouse them to healthy
action.
An INSCRIPTIONS, ignorant remedy,
containing alcohol, as all liquid kidney
remedies do, will stimulate them so
violently that an inflammation will be
set up, and instead of being merely lazy
the kidneys will become diseased.
Alcohol congests the kidneys with blood
and retards their activity.
There is no, alcohol in Kidney Wort
Tablets to interfere with the removal of
all harmful sediment from the body.
The Tablets soothe and heal the kidneys
when they are irritated and infamed.
They cure the kidney diseases that make
you dizzy, restless, sleepless and irritable;
that make you pass water often during
the day and night, that cause rheuma-
tism, catarrh of the bladder, pain in the
back, joints and muscles; that make
your head ache, and cause indigestion,
stomach and liver trouble, and sallow,
yellow complexion. Mr.. Benjamin F.
Shattuck, the well known wholesale
dealer in garden produce, says of Kidney
Wort Tablets;

for the benefit of I'LL the schools Of this county if few

For several years Montpelier citizens have taxed them
selves the full limit allowed by the law irrespective of the
license school purposes while not many if of
the districts have done this II Montpelier has

its people have not been backward about evyng the
full limit of tax IF other districts have shorter of
school u.s. practically at least because they have levied
smaller tax at ALL Therefore
would that the districts that its people the heav
lest should have of the license money than those
do not In other words if AL the districts of the county
had been evying the maxium tax and still couldn't keep
fairly good school then such districts should be helped
but districts have srked the responsibility irving
to have good schools by failure to tax themselves they
wouldn't seem to require much consideration
Taxpayers in outside DISTRICTS just able 10

menabe fact that many districts in this county levy
small tax for school pu1popes and OF them
at ALL Yet they will be the be benefited by this bill
if it passes We believe in helping those who try help
themselves and III judgment the bill should be amended
to read that only those district which levy least mills
the dollar for school proposes should be allowed
license money" This scheme would insure good schools
in every district that wanted any school worthy the

CONSOLIDATED ROAD.

The Quarterly Report-Vice President
 MerriIl's Resignation.
 The report of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company for the quarter ending March S1, 1903, made public yesterday, shows gross earnings of $1O.S7S, ,172.S5, an increase of s1.150,961.S2 as compared with corre- spending quarter of 1902.
 The operating expenses were $S,75S,- 449.0S, an increase of $1,47S, ,737.32.
 The net earnings from operations were $2,124723.32, a decrease of $S27,- 775.50.
 Income from other sources than oper- ation decreased $7,556.S5.
 Interest, rental charges, and taxes increased $17,765.14.
 The net income from all sources was $125, ,729.63, decrease of $S5S S,096.99.
 The increase in operating expenses is due to increased consumption and in- creased cost of coal, increased wages, and increase of per diem use of freight cars as compared with mileage rate.
 The sale of several hundred shares of New Haven railroad stock yester- day at decline, an amount unusual for this issue, was attributed to liqui- dation because of the rather disap- pointing earnings.
 Many other large railroad systems have shown decreases in net earnings due to the above causes during the leanest part of the years first quar- ter.
 The following officers have been elected by the Rockville Railroad com pany recently acquired by the Con- solidated railroad: Directors, John M. Hall Frank W. Cheney, D. Newton Barney, J. c. Hammond, Jr., and H. M. Kochersperger. John M. Hall is the secretary and treasurer of the com pany. The road is four miles long.
 First Vice President w. F. Merrill of the New York, New Haven & Hart ford Railroad company has resigned. MT. Merrill came to the New Haven company somewhat more than two years ago from the Erie Railroad com- pany, of which he was second vice president.
 MT. Merrill will take a rest or vaca- tion before re-engaging in railroad business. Reports were current that he has an offer from one of the large railroad systems of the country which he is considering.
 MT. Merrill has been first vice presi- dent of the Consolidated road for about three years. He was appointed at meeting of the board of directors held in New York city in December, 1899, and had general control of the operating and construction depart ments of the New Haven system. He was chosen to succeed William D.
