Free School Books Menace to Health.

The people like to have the state pay
the bills-the individual pocketbook
doesn't seem to be hit quite so hard
under a moderate taX-but the free
text hook and especially the free lead
pencil is a menace to health and an un =
clean gratuity that arouses consider
able anger and disgust in medical cir
cles and elsewhere. Diphtheria scares
and other incipient epidemics bring
the subject home to the people occa-
sonally. DR.. o. W. Sherwin of Wood
stock, former member Of the state
board of health, is practically hearty
and severe in expressing his opinion of
the free text book business as source
of danger to the public health. Books
are passed about from child to child.
to families in different communities,
worn and soiled by hands that do not
make a virtue of cleanliness, and the
suggestion that they are capable me-
dunn for the transmission of disease Is
timely and reasonable. And the free
lead pencil Zone cent at retail) that is
daily passed from mouth to mouth is a
more pernicious agent and one that
ought to be abolished at the first OPP
portunity, without waiting for an
amendment to the constitution of the
state. 1t would be a wholesome,
healthy plan to lower the tax one per
cent and kill the appropriation for free
books, pencils and pencil grinders. =

VERMONT UNFAIR TO CATHOLICS.
Rev. D. J. O'Sullivan of St. Adams Objects to
Protestant Monopoly of Office.

Rev. d. J. O'Sullivan of st. Adams
has created something of a sensation by
made in a sermon delivered
Sunday evening. He said that Catho
lies had taken as matter of course the
fact that since the founding of Yer
mont not once had there been Catho
lie appointed to a public office-not an
elective but an appointive office-not
of education, not a
chaplain in the reform school, or the
asylum, or a public institution. He
said Protestants would complain if the
state university was presided over by
Catholic priest: if the professor of his
tory were a Catholic priest, who did
not even own one Protestant history in
his whole library; if the commence
ment exercises were invariably held in
the cathedral in Burlington; if the
baccalaureate sermon was invariably
preached by Catholic priest or by
bishop. who threw out often sly hints
and innuendoes against the Protestant
faith. He objected strongly to the
school histories in use, claiming that
they dealt in what he termed an unfair
manner with the Catholic church and
Catholic doctrine in general.

full views of Saratoga with its parks
and broad avenues, and best of all, a

SALE RAPIDLY INCREASING.
Mi-o-na, the dyspepsia remedy has
cured hundreds Of George {.
Creene's customers.

One Of the great successes in the sale
of a medicine has been achieved by
Mi-o.na, the dyspepsia remedy, and
its sale is increasing so rapidly that
George E. Greene, the popular drug
gist, has hard work to keep a stock on
hand.
1t is very popular with well known
bankers. ministers. lawyers and others
whose business or profession keeps
them closely confined, while those who
have brought on indigestion through
irregular eating, worry or any other
causes, have found a cure in this re-
liable remedy.
Mi-o-na is in the form of small tablets
and is sold in metal box especially de-
signed for convenience in carrying
the medicine in the pocket or purse. 1T
is pleasant to take: gives quick relief
and makes lasting cures.
This remedy has been so uniformly
successful and made so many remarkable
cures that Geo. E. Greene will in future
sell Mi ma under positive guarantee
to refund the money if it should not
cure. No other dyspepsia medicine
ever had large enough percentage CT
cures so that it could be sold in this
manner. A guarantee like this speaks
volumes for the merit of the remed y.
There is no time like the present to
do thing that ought to be done. If
any one has dyspepsia, to-day is the
best time to begin curing it.

The only recourse that we can think
Of for the liquor drinkers of St. Johns

up against another section Of the new

Intoxicating liquor into a town IN
which no license is authorized, with
intent to sell it himself or have it sold

has reasonable cause to believe it is in

not less than one hundred dollars, OF
be imprisoned not less than three mol
more than six months.

hyomei the Only Cure for Catarrh
Which Returns Your Money II Not
Satisfactory.


1t is seldom that druggist has
enough faith in the medicine he sells
even when prepared by himself, to be
willing to refund the money if it does
not cure; but Hyomei has cured SO
many cases of catarrh among the Gus
toners of George E. Greene that he Of
fers to refund the money to all who
use it and report that they are not sat
isfied.
Hyomei is the simplest and most con-
yenient remedy for catarrh ever offered
to the public. Breathed through an
inhaler so small that it can be carried
in the vest pocket, for few minutes
four times a day, it will absolutely kill
all germs of catarrh and cure the dis
ease.
Catarrh cannot exist where Hyomei
is used. 1t has two-fold action, kill
ing all the germs in the air passages
and lungs and soothing and healing
the irritated mucous membrane.
Many of the prominent men and
women of the country have gladly given
testimonials to Hyomei. After seeking
relief in vain for years, this wonderful
remedy has cured them of catarrh, and
it is no wonder that they want others
to know it.
Rev. DR.. Stryker, of the 34th Street
Church, of New York City, writes !:
"Hyomei gives wonderful relief in ca
tarrh when other remedies have failed.
1t has been of great service to me.
If you have catarrh, accept George E
Greene's proposition and use Hyomei.

Proud, aristocratic, old Boston is in
the throes of much delayed spring
house cleaning and evidences are re-
vealed that bribery in politics has been
carried on by the wholesale, and that
boodling has been reduced to fine art
in that city for years. A few members
of the City Common Council recently
began the work of municipal reform,
by bringing charges against unscrup-
ulous and dishonest members OF that
body. and the work has extended high
err up. AS a beginning, member OF
the Common Council has resigned his

front for the presidents qualification
during his trip through the west this
month. The expression of his views on
this subject has prove a master stroke,
regarded from an advertising stand
point, and has resulted in general
discussion and the airing of some very
curious views and theories. The sub
ject is too complex to admit of general
or sweeping decisions. A news item,
bearing upon it as far as the jewellers

that woman had been turned away
from 81 flats before she found one that
would take her with four children.

The Vermont farmer has long been
known as hard worked person unrec-

which robbed everybody else, yielded
him rich harvest and now the license

the cider he can make, regardless OF
the amount of alcohol it contains. The
farmers hard cider seems to be the

Brattleboro's Wise Decisions.

After the recent town meetings the
Middlebury Register eulogized Spring
field, st. Johnsbury and Proctor
which voted "no" on the license ques-
ton, as "the three best manufactur-
ing towns in the state. " "No saloon
it continued, twill bring ruin and
misery to the workingmen of these
towns The Barre Times rather
laughs at this eulogy and adds:
"But in it's zeal for its side has not
the Register overlooked Brattleboro'
the home of the Estey organ, town
recognized to be one OF the nnest III
New England, Burlington, the city OF
the most varied manufactures IN tne
state and the center of the intellectual
life of the state as we'll, and Barre me
greatest granite manufacturing entef
in the country? But then, Brattleboro,
Burlington and Barre voted yes at
the last March meeting, by when act
they lost their title to being the best
manufacturing towns, in the Register 5
immortal list. f"
1t may further be said that, although
Brattleboro voted "yes'', mo saloon
will bring ruin and misery to the work
ingmen, within her borders, for there
are to be no saloons in Brattleboro.
The liquor traffic, which is bound to
exist in any community in some form'
will be under the supervision and con-
troll of men of wisdom and good ludg-
ment and it's evils will be done away
with, as far as they can be. Brattle-
boro people may, very possibly, not De
as "far above the average" as, accor-
ding to the Register, those OF st.
Johnsbury are, but they have not
thought best to cut off the liquor sup
ply absolutely from their town so as to
make inconvenient its use for medicl-
nal purposes; or to make it necessary
for liquor users to resort to desperate
and illegal methods to obtain their
supplies.
However Brattleboro may stand on
general merits, she certainly has
showed good sense and wise Judgment
in her decisions on the license ques
tion.
