WHAT OUR NEIGHBORS SAY
Effort to Prevent the Waste OF Money
in Vermont Highway Construction.


The State highway commissioner j. o.
Sanford Is putting forth a great effort to
have the work of road making and road
repairing amount to something this year.
In a circular which he has sent out he
makes the statement that during the past
IL years total of H,ilS2U0 has been cx-
pended on the roads of the State. which
allows 1906 for every mile of roads in
The state. or about $50 per mile each
year. n large part Of this money is viz
tuallv wasted. thrown away, as it has
been used on every conceivable kind of
road from city street to a cow path The
funds have not been applied iudiciously in
all cases To obNiate that difficulty it is
proposed to educate the seectmen and
others interested in the making of good
roads. For that purpose county meet
tnGs for tho discussion Of good roads have
been called beginning this month with
Addison county. a large amount of good
should result from these meetings, pro-
vided they are well attended by those
who arc entrusted with road expenditure
IN the several towns.

Vermont Entitled to Lower Insurance
Rates as Shown by Statistics.
U'ro:n the Rutland Ncws.)

We fail to comprehend the Justice of
the contention that fire insurance COM
panicS made when they made their last
large Increase of rates in Rutland and
other sections of Vermont. They claimed
That they were paying out in tho State
more money in the way of losses than
they were getting out of it-that they
were doing business in Vermont at an
actual loss. If this contention is true
then expenses of operation are out of all
proportion. According to the annual re
port of the Vermont insurance commits
sioncrs. as printed in The News. the prem
ilmS paid in 1901 were s91i.071.G5. while
the losses sustained by the companies
wcr" sT5.SG9.95; in 1902 the figures were ST.
0ll5?2.1> for premiums paid and $i73. PAIL
for losses. Thus all the companies, in
GLIDING both foreign and domestic, re-
turned substantially only half of the
premiums received in these two years in
losses, leaving half for expenses, per-
cottages and profits. This, to the lay
man. docs not seem to be bad business
Perhaps the stock companies expect too
great things in the matter of dividends to
stockholders. This thought is suggested
by the fact that ono New York State conf
pany pays it's stockholders 40 per cent di-
vidends annually. To Judge from all this

Catarrh Causes Female Diseases.

America is the land of nervous ome
are SO because they are suffering from
some form of female disease. BY far
the greatest number of female troubles
are caused directly by catarrh. These
women despair of recovery. Female
trouble is so common, so prevalent,
that they accept itas almost inevitable.
The greatest obstacle in the way ofre-
covery is that they do not understand
that it is catarrh which is the source
of their illness.
In female complaint, ninety-nine
cases out of one hundred are nothing
but catarrh.
Peruna cures catarrh wherever To-
Gated.
