REDUCED EXPENSES.
Vermont Soldiers Home Shows Up Well
Financially.

I
Bennington, July 27.-The report Of
the expenses at the Vermont Soldier.
Home read at the annual meeting Of tht
trustees yesterday shows that the insti.
tuition has been conducted much more
economically during the past year than
the year before. The report shows that
the receipts for the year ending july
l, were S21 ,474 Of which s1O.24 came
from the state of Vermont ande $3.50
from the United States. The expenses
for the year were 1865 which is about
$1,000 less than for the year previous.
The expense per capita for last wear
was $3.50, a reduction of S31 from the
previous year. This reduction in ex.
pense has been brought about b. the
Improvement of the farm under Col.
lannon's management. He has brought
the farm into a high state Of cultiva-
ton and furnished most of the vege-
tables and dairy products for the insti-
tuition from the farm itself.

VERMONT STILL INTACT.

There is considerable doubt as to the
truthfulness Of the report which was
published originally in several metropol-
itan newspapers that recent surveys had
disclosed the fact that three towns on
the northern border Of Vermont were
really within the proper Canadian boun-
Diary, The report said that Richford,
East Riohford and Stevens Mills were
the towns. Now Riehford i one Of the
most populous and progressive towns on
the northern border, and Vermonters
were very much surprised, if not rem
dered uneasy, by the report. But 80
far as can be learned there is no foun-

beyond question that Lydia E. Pink

could not produce such marvellous re-
suits among sick and ailing women.

ferer with womb trouble which caused me
severe pain extreme nervousness and fire.

failed TO relieve me. tried Lydia r. Pink

short time felt better and after taking five

many doctors fail TO help you am pleased

Some people think that because
their parents died with consumption,
they are doomed by the same plague.
This is not So Cases of inherited
consumption are very rare. The real
reason why so many in a family suf-
fer from tuberculosis is to be found
elsewhere than in heredity.
The afflicted member does not know
the necessity for personal cleanliness,
for religiously collecting and burning
all matter spit up. The use of the
ordinary pocket handkerchief and the
washing of 1t in the family laundry
is a constant source of danger Rice
paper handkerchiefs or old linen
should be used and then burned.
The person himself is almost harm
less. 1t is only the lack of care in
scattering the genus that makes him
dangerous companion. These bad
practices are usually due to ignorance.
1t is not necessary to isolate the pa
tient for the protection of the family
Each person not affected should
breathe fresh air, exercise out Of
doors, eat simple food. bathe daily
and sleep eight hours each night.
This will increase the body's vital
power and resist the deadly genus
which may be breathed in. The rest
of the family being thus fortified, the
patient should cooperate in the pro-
lection.
Let him study to prevent the germs
from being scattered broadcast
through the house. Then let all CO.
operate in the fresh air cure Of the
patient, and he may live in peace and
pleasure, gradually fighting his way
back to health, and in no way dam
gerous to his friends.
When every consumptive intelli-
gently co-operates with the family
and physician, the day of inherited
consumption" will be passed.

Daily ExercIse.

Clerks. bookkeepers and thousands
Of other indoor workers suffer from
the lack of pure air and muscular ex-
ercise. If an attempt is made to be-
gin systematic exercise, or an hour or
30 is spent in digging or chopping
wood, undue soreness and fatigue are
produced. This disagreeable result
often stops the experiment. Instead
Of discouraging the trial. the very
soreness should point out the great
need of the body.
If the work were persisted in and
gradually increased the stiffness would
soon disappear, and leave in its place
a general feeling of increased vigor
The nerves are strengthened and the
bodily activities quickened. The ef-
feet is not alone ON the muscles used,
but upon each organ. The blood is
purified and the digestion strength
eDed
The effects of a prolonged sedentary
life are overcome only by working of
the accumulated poisons and creating
an appetite for new pure food. This is
built up in the body, and thus the
whole man is renewed
Exercise must be carefully increased
and sdapted to the individual muscu-
lar strength. The weakest muscles
must be brought up to the standard
of the others.
For feeble persons who are not
allie to do the desired work, massage,
Swedish movements and mechanical
exercises should be employed.
For more robust persons, walking,
horseback riding, rowing, bicycle rid
ing and especially swimming are to be
recommended.

Night Air and Consumption.

The old fallacy that night air Is a
dangerous miasm 1t not yet dead.
Much has been said about fresh air,
outdoor life and sunshine for tubercu-
losis. Many victims have experienced
the healing power in these natural
agencies. But too often the consump-
tive, after day in the sunshine or
III the cold, crisp winter air, retires
for a nights sleep in dark. stuffy,
airtight room. Don't be afraid of
night air.
Open the bedroom to all the sun
possible during the day. The room
will then be dry, though cold. Damp
ness is dangerous and more apt to oc-
cur in closed than in wide-open
room. Keep at least one window in
the bedroom open day and night, sum-
mer and winter. The door should shut
the chamber off from the rest of the
house. In the morning the patient
should be taken quickly into warm
room for the cold sponge bath.

Insidious Polsons.

The poisonous effects resulting
from the use of tea and coffee are
very decidedly manifest to one who
has given thought to this question,
and has made careful observations in
relation to it. The sallow complexion,
common among women of the higher
classes who have reached middle life,
the almost universal nervousness
among American women, and many
common digestive disorders, and the
increasing prevalence Of nervous or
sick headaches, afford to the expert
enced physician ample evidence of the
toxic or poisonous character of tea,
coffee, and the allied beverages, cocoa
and chocolate. The well-known ef-
feet Of these drugs in producing wake
fulness, banishing as II by magic the
sensation of fatigue. affords sufficient
evidence of their poisonous character.
No one would doubt for moment the
poisonous character Of a drug capa-
BILE of producing irresistible drowsl-
ness in person who is not weary.
The power Of drug to produce wake
fulness in a person strongly inclined
to sleep as the result of fatigue, is
equally evidence of its poisonous char
Rcter.
