in Essex Junction last week and drove
to Underhill
Not all of the transactions that &C.
Cured between them and patrons along
the route have been reported but one
case, owing to the prompt good sense of
the man discovering the deed, resulted
in their discontinue.
They presented the spectacle gold brick
to an innocent old lady in Jericho and
she gave up her own gold bowed glasses
and 1923 in good money for pair of their
spectacles. When her son came home
the same day and found what she had
done he telephoned to Johnson's hotel
and when the men arrived in Essex
Junction with the team in the evening
they were confronted with the alter
native of giving up the lady's money or
interviewing judge. They gave up
and disappeared. One of the men went
by the name of Rosenbloom but nothing
more is known of the pair.

INVITATION FROM DIR. w. n.
SHELDON.
Leading Middlebury Druggist Urges You
to try Hyomei, the Guaranteed Cure
for Catarrh.

Leading MiddIebury Druggist Urges You
to try Hyomei, the Guaranteed Cure
for Catarrh.
Any reader of the Register who suffers
with catarrh, or who is subject to
catarrhal colds, is invited to w. H.
Sheldons store for a complete Hyomei
outfit on approval. So confident is he
that Hyomei will cure the worst and
most deep-seated case of catarrh that he
will furnish full months treatment of
Hyomei on trial.
While it would be unreasonable to
expect a chronic case of catarrh which
has been growing worse for years, could
be cured within a month, yet he feels
sure that the thirty days treatment will
convince the user that Hyomei is in
fallible in driving catarrhal poison from
the system. There is no dangerous
stomach drugging when Hyomei is used.
Simply breathe its healing balsams
through the neat inhaler that comes
with every outfit, and the germ-killing
and h-giving air will penetrate to
the most remote cells in the air passages
of the head, throat and lungs, and drive
catarrhal poison from the system.
Nothing else will so quickly cure cold
in the head or stop an ordinary cough.
Singers and public speakers will find
Hyomei invaluable. 1t strengthens the
voice and gives it rich, clear tone.
Catarrhal deafness is cured when
Hyomei balm are used.
The complete outfit costs only one
dollar, and if, after using, you can say
that it did not help you w. H. Sheldon
will Ieturn your money.

The MoosaIamoo club.

The Burlington Free Press of May 18th
says: 1.-THE first regular reception of the
Moosalamoo club was given at its elegant
suite of rooms in the Upper block last
evening. A large number of invitations
had been sent to the business men of the
village and throughout the country, and
the weather conditions being unusually
favorable the attendance was uneX-
pectedly large. Committees of the club
were on hand to escort the visitors
through the apartments occupied by the
association, and make their call as pleas
ant as possible. The apartments com
prise reception and sitting room in the
front of the building, with comfortable
seats and table well supplied with read
ing matter, the popular magazines and
periodicals being received regularly.
The card room in the rear has tables for
playing chess, cards, checkers and other
games, and the room behind this has a
fine pool table and will have, when fully
equipped. billiard table also.
In the parlor is a fine piano, a round
table with a variety of reading matter
and comfortable seats to accommodate
all who desire to while away the time at
music and in social converse. a cloak
room is conveniently located, with ample
accommodations for all ordinary occa-
sions. The bath room contains fine
bath tub with attachment for shower
ing, marble top wash bowl, etc. The
entire suite is lighted by electricity.
The club adheres to its original pur-
pose, not to contract any debts, and with
its membership of GO has paid for every
thing it claims to own, the piano being
leased, and there is comfortable bal
ance in the hands of the treasurer. The
object of the reception was to bring the
business men of the town and county
together that they might become better
acquainted with each other. There was
music and refreshments.
Altogether the reception may be called
a success. Many were present from out
of town, among them Judge Collins OF
Ferrisburg, T. W. Fletcher of Bridport
f. l.. Hamilton of Salisbury.
The officers of the club are l.. p
Thayer, president; DR.. L. w. Allen
vice-president; Leroy c. Russell, secre-
tary; G. |. Button, treasurer. The
executive committee is composed of the
foregoing officers with w. II. Davis

Queer Find.

Lewis Shore of Forestdale recently pur-
chased an old building belonging to the
estate of Arthur Gibson. The building
was formerly used for tool shop. Mr..
Shore had it torn down and the lumber
removed to his placed in Forestdale, and
is building barn with it. Recently a
plank that had been carelessly used for
staging and other purposes attracted Mr..
Shores attention and upon looking at the
end of it discovered it contained a tin
box. There had been hole made in the
end of the plank just large enough to
secrete the box. 1t was found to con-
tain $1,000 in government bonds, besides
all of Mr.. Gibson's valuable papers.
Some of the papers were dated 1880 and
it is thought they have been in there
since that year.

REASONS
Why our Vinol is the Greatest
Health Restorer and Strength
Creator Known to Medicine.

Because Vinol contains in concen-
trated form ALL of the medicinal cur
alive elements found in cod liver oil,
but without a drop of oil to nauseate
and upset the stomach; therefore,
wherever old-fashioned cod liver oil or
emulsions will do good, Vinol will do
far more good.
Because we have never sold anything
in our store equal to Vinol to restore
health and create strength for old peo-
pie, weak, sickly women and children,
nursing mothers, and after severe
sickness.
Vinol cures hacking coughs, chronic
colds, bronchitis, and all throat and
lung troubles.
A prominent physician writes: :.
"Vinol is the most palatable and
valuable preparation of cod liver oil
ever compounded. Inow use it entirely
In all cases where 1 formerly depended
upon old-fashioned cod liver oil and
emulsions."
Try Vinol on our guarantee to return
your money if you are not satisfied.
