"When | had an attack of the grin

truth. | at times kept from coughing
myself to pieces by taking teaspoonfu
OF this remedy, and when the coughing
spell would come at night / would take
a dose and it seemed that in the briefest
interval the cough would pass off and
would go to work perfectly free from
cough and its accompanying pains. To
say that the remedy acted as most
agreeable surprise is putting it very
mildly. | had no idea that it would or
could knock out the grip, simply be.
cause | had never tried it for such n
purpose, but it did, and it seemed with
the second attack of coughing the remedy
caused it to not only be of less duration,
but the pains were far less severe, and |

before MIR. Grip had bid me adieu." For

Bradstreet'S Vermont Trade
Report.
SPECIAL TO THE HERALD,

TELL Al ~ lHE HERALD.
The weather has continued very warm
the past week but there is still frost in
the ground and in many places the
roads are heavy. Conditions have been
unfavorable for maple sugar and it is
predicted that at best only small yield
will be secured. If weather conditions
40 not speedily improve the crop will be
almost failure. The farmers are busv
preparing for spring work, some blowing
having already been done. The manu-
facturers are very busy and orders for
manufactured goods are freely received.
Prospects in the departments of bust
ness is very good. Collections are slow,
in but fow instances are quoted above
fair, the scarcity of available funds ap-
pears more pronounced than usual. The
retail trade is fairly satisfactory. Notice
is being published in local papers of ap-
plications to sell liquor under the recent
act OF State Legislature.
The mills and factories are busy in
Burlington. The wholesale business in
groceries, tobacco, hardware, etc, re-
mains unchanged. Retail trade and
collections fair. No settlement is re-
ported from the strike at the brush fac
tory. April first is awaited with con-
siderable apprehension because of the
attitude OF the workmen in the lumber
districts who have made requests of en-
ployers to reduce the length of working
lay at former wages. Lake Champlain
IS practically free from ice and naviga.

Commercial Loyalty of Canada.

MIR. Franklin d. Hale, our Consul at
Coaticook, has drawn the attention of
the department to what he terms the
commercial loyalty" of Canada. Coati-
cook, he says, has large retail trade,
but most of the goods sold are of Cana
dian production and manufacture, or are
imported from countries other than
the United States. Comparatively few
American goods are offered for sale.
American commercial travellers do not
visit the town, although they are not
subjected to any restraint, such as the
charging of duty on their samples. "As
far as possible, merchants are loyal to
the Canadian producer. lone manu-.
tacture is daily meeting the demand"
American goods, Mr.. Hale adds, hold
their own only when of unquestioned
in style, quality, workman
ship or durability.

Danger of Colds and Grip.

The greatest danger from colds and
grip is their resulting in pneumonia. If
reasonable care is used, however. and
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy taken, all
danger will be avoided. Among the
tens of thousands who have used this
remedy for these diseases we have yet
to learn of single case having resulted
IN pneumonia, which shows conclusiyely
that it is a certain preventive of that
dangerous disease. 1t will cure a cold
or an attack of the grip in less time than
any other treatment. 1t is pleasant and
safe to take. For sale by John W.

With reference 10 the special town
meeting next Monday We hope the voters
may act upon due deliberation. II any
thing can be done to send the life blood
into any artery of business, enterprise
would seem to suggest that We do il.
The inducements Of one kind and an
other that are being held out by various
towns and villages to attract manufac-
turing establishments indicate the drift
of popular sentiment toward full re-
alization of the local benefits that result
from productive interests, benefits that
have long been appreciated. Build up
your town, not only by inducing capital
lists aud manufacturers to locate, but by
cherishing, sustaining and promoting
existing interests aud industries.

The beautiful Gibson girls which have
