Taking Salts.-The best way to take
salts is to use just enough water to
dissolve them completely. Have sec
ond glass full of water. Drink two
large swallows of water, then take the
salts quickly. drink the remainder Of
the water in the other glass and the
salts will not be tasted.

Advertising Rates on Application.
Newspaper Advertising.

In these days the value of newspa-
per advertising is seldom questioned
but few people realize to what extent
newspaper advertising figures in all
the great business successes of the
period.
b. j. Bliss, the managing director
of the Regal Shoe Company, has Civ
en- to Newspaperdom his opinion on
the value of newspaper advertising.
1t should prove interesting reading to
newspaper publishers and profitable
reading to advertisers. The article
shows how newspapers made the Reg
al shoe famous the world over and
filled the exchequer OF its originator
and its manufacturers. 1t is pleasing
to note that Mr. Bliss makes no en-
deavor to keep the great factor in his
success hidden from the public, In
stead, he comes forth with a broad
statement that cannot be misunder-
stood and tells how highly he regards
the value of the newspaper as an adj
vertising medium.
Out of an appropriation for 1903,
which will be about $3.50, 900, the news
papers will receive nearly $780, 0O
The remaining $50, 600 will go to mag
azine publicity, billboard campaigns
and general printing. Surely there is
within that statement sufficient infor-
nation to cause the general advertiser
to do a little unbiased thinking. If
newspaper space does not pay the
Regal Shoe Company best, then why
has it cut its appropriation up into
such proportions. The advertisers
cannot claim that the Bliss concern is
experimenting or that it is new and
IMMERSED in the ways of publicity.
That argument would not stand for a
moment 1t is widely known that the
company is one of the largest and
most successful shoe houses in the
world.
A greater part of its enviable sue
cess came through the power and in
luence of clean, Legitimate newspaper
advertising. A firm which has spent
millions in advertising should be
qualified to form a correct conclusion.
1t is, of course, not possible for the
retail merchant OF a country town to
do business on scale with the Regal
shoe company but there is no reason
in the world why each and every one
OF them VINO has any ability whatever.
and little push and perseverance
may not add materially to his busi-
ness and greatly increase his profits.
Especially is this true in Benning-
ton where it is possible to reach the
entire reading public through adver-
Using in one newspaper.

A New York court holds that labor
unions have no right to strike simply
to enforce recognition from their em-
plOyers. That's stretching the point.
Courts have no right to say for what
cause employees shall or shall not
strike. The employees in ,this news
paper Office have a right to strike be-
cause the publisher is light-haired and

Governor McCullough's proclama-
tions seem to set the pace. The sug-
gestion in his arbor day proclamation
that it is well to preserve as well as
plant has been adopted by the COVER
nors of Massachusetts, and New Jersey
and several other governors have fall
en- in with the idea. Gov Bates of
Massachusetts, in his Arbor day pro-
clamation says:-"May this day be
o b served in a practic !
way, not only by the planting Of trees,
but especially by endeayor to protect
those already in existence by we'll
considered and determined efforts to
destroy those insect pests which are
the foes of vegetation" To this the
Boston Post adds:-"Ar Day is
fixed for Saturday, as usual, when the
schools are closed and the children
are free to take part in such exercises
as may be held. If this army of
youth were to be marshaled and led
against the gypsy moth in those Sec
tions where we are told, that insect is
just about to begin to spread devas-
tation, it would be a more memoir
able lesson than the planting OF a
whole park of trees. Make it Gypsy
Moth Day and it will be the best sort
of Arbor Day." The case seems to
be linemen in Vermont against the
gypsy moth and elm beetle in Mass
achusetts. This calls to mind too the
fact that Gov McCullough's Thanks
giving day proclamation last Noyem-
Der was used without the change of a
word by the governor of West Virgin
ia who issued his about a week after
Gov McCullough's had been sent by
his secretary, Gen Bates, to the gov
errors of all the states.

Those prohibitionists who are so
gleeful over the drunks that followed
the opening of the bars at Middlebury
should read what the Fair Haven Era
says of the beginning under the newlaw
there. Says the Era:-"So far as the
casual observer could see the change
to license had made little difference in
the number that frequented the bar or
the general appearance of things about
either house. There may have been a
few more in number about the bars,
but there were not many loungers and
not any indications Of drunkenness.
The letter OF the law, with the excep-
ton of the treating clause, was APP
parently lived up to. The results Of
licensing the town are impossible as
yet to determine. but this much can be
said in favor Of the new system. 1t
has driven all those formerly in the
liquor business out Of it, and that was
something that was never done to the
knowledge Of tie writer by pro-
hibition. a survey OF the town Sat
urday night did not reveal the intoxi-
cation seen here on other so-called
prohibition Saturday nights.

Bennington has always been re-
markably free from labor disturbances
of all kinds and there is no better feel
ing anywhere between employees and
employers than exists right here in
Bennington. Right in line with this
1t is pleasant to chronicle the agree
ment entered into this week between
the masons, plumbers, carpenters and
painters and their employers whereby
after May /, the men are to work nine
hours per day with no reduction from
their present wages. II has been ac-
complished without the formation of
union, without a strike, aud without
any arrangement of business or a
particle of hard feeling. AS a rule
more can be accomplished by peace
able methods than by buster, loud
talk and violence.
