The Ladies' Aid society held its annual
meeting at the home of Mrs. w. B.
Child Wednesday, February 3. There
were a number of gentlemen present as
the guests of the society and they were
asked to listen to the treasurer's report.
After doing so it was suggested by one
of the gentlemen that a resume of the
report be printed in the county papers
for the encouragement of similar socie-
ties in our rural churches. The MEM
bership of the society is not large and
the dues are but five cents per month, SO
the report shows that much hard work
has been done. In the thirteen months
preceding 1904 the society expended
$242.67, leaving in the treasury on Jan.
cash balance of $4.19 with all bills
paid. Since the organization of the
society less than five years ago, 1904. 04
has been received and $499.S5 expended

repairs and necessary supplies for church

Our usually quiet village was suddenly
thrown into a state of excitement on
Friday of last week at nearly 3 p. m. by
the cry of fire. Smoke was seen escap-
ing in large quantities from the tene-
ment house of II. l.. Thompson situated
just south of the east bridge and occu-
pied by Louis Goulette and family. who
were absent from home. Strong efforts
We're made to eXtinguish the flames,
which had made considerable progress
in the living rooms in the second story,
but without avail The flames soon
attacked the barns, also belonging to
Mr.. Thompson and quite near, and they
were soon beyond hope, and were
cleared of all their furnishings. The
next in line was the residence of Mrs.
Adams and Miss Sampson, without a
10-feet space between. Determined
efforts were put forth here and with
success, the house remaining still after
being cleared of everything it contained.
Much praise is due to those who labored
SO faithfully IN saving their home and
their all. The church and Mrs. Thomp-
sons residence opposite We're damaged
by the heat from the burning buildings.
Mr.. Goulette suffered an entire loss of
furniture and clothing and some provi-
vions. Mr.. Thompson loses his dwelling
house, without insurance. His barn
was insured for 1925 in the Vermont
Mutual as was the other buildings. Mr..
Philips, of Montpelier, came as adjuster
on Tuesday and made satisfactory settle
ments with the parties.

Mr.. Clements Candidacy.

Mr.. Clement spoke at Windsor, Fri
day night, and it seems to be the gene
raj opinion that this means the open
ing of his campaign for the Governor
ship.
1t is perfectly futile for Mr.. Clement
to seek the Republican nomination.
The Republican party is not going to
nominate any man for any office, who
has been candidate before at a previ-
Gus convention, and bolted because he
was not nominated.
This is entirely aside from any other
question. 1t is issue enough in itself for
the Republican party, or any other
party.
In regard to other questions the Regis
ter does not think that there will be any
very great difference of opinion among
the Republican voters. With substan-
tial unanimity they will support Mr..
Roosevelt for the presidency. With
substantial unanimity, too, they will
nominate some fair, candid and able
man for Governor, and will also take
special pains to select similar candidates
for all other State offices. This will
insure an economical administration of
State affairs, and one in other respects
that should be satisfactory to all our
people.

A misunderstanding led to some dis

the ladies Of the club have decided upon
the following plan for the sale of seats
for both the above entertainments. The
doors at Stems drug store will be
opened at 10 o'clock "a. m for the sale of tic
kets. The person standing first in line
will get a small ticket, No. 1 and will
proceed to have first choice of six seats
only, except in cases where a family
consists of more than six members
in which case a ticket-holder
will be allowed to mark seats for
his family. Each person entering the
store after the town clock strikes 10 will
be given the next higher number and
allowed six seats if desired, etc, etc.
Telephone calls for seats from OUTSIDE
THE VILLAGE will be accepted after
10 o'clock, the same as person coming
to the door and will be given number
accordingly. 1t will do no good to go to
Stems store and wait for the clock to
strike; only those coming from outside
will be given number checks. The
marking of seats will positively begin
with a clean board at 10 o'clock on dates
mentioned.

To the Editor of the Middlebury Regis
ter:-Having discovered and perfected a
vegetable compound, which l call Dr.
Merrow's SYSTEM RENOVATOR, and
having used it extensively in my own
private practice for several years with
the same wonderful good results. l
truly believe that it is destined to revolu-
tionize the practice of medicine and l
earnestly ask you to aid me in introduce
ing it, through the columns of your
paper, to the public.
| want all to know the truth about my
SYSTEM RENOVATOR as | know it,
and believe in it as l believe in it.
This is my home you are my neigh
bors. | could not afford to deceive you
if l wished to do so, as | value your re-
spect and confidence more than do
your money; therefore | do not
ask your readers to invest one cent in
SYSTEM RENOVATOR until they have
tried it and asked every clergyman,
scientist, and the public in general to
thoroughly test DR.. Merrows SYSTEM
RENOVATOR, then honestly through
the columns of this paper tell their
friends the results. Could any offer be
fairer?
l cannot recommend my SYSTEM RE
NOVATOR too highly for all forms of
liver and stomach troubles of chronic
nature, in fact, it is the most successful
medicine in the world made especially
for chronic diseases, arising from tor
pid or sluggish liver. 1t is my opinion
after 30 years of careful research in the
practice of medicine, that liver COM
plant cause nearly all chronic diseases;
such as indigestion, heart disease,
dropsy, weakness Of the kidneys, rheu'
matism, constipation, with sallow COM
plexion, headaches, sleepnessness, ner-
vousness, i'll temper and worry.
Send me a person suffering from any
of the above symptoms and l will prove
to your entire satisfaction that the suf
fering is liver trouble, which DIR. Mer-
rew's SYSTEM RENOVATOR will cure.
believe that every disease that hui
man flesh is heir to can be cured, if taken
in time. l believe that my SYSTEM

gree to revolutionize to great degree
