Sometimes when she is asked to con-
fess and tell what is troubling her she
exhibits a strange agitation, bites her
fingers and even her palms. until the
skin has been torn away in many places
and they are sore.
She acts strangely and doesn't ap-

the shadow of some dark crime and
does not appear a criminal. She insists
on confessing and wont divulge word
when given most urgent opportunities.
She is a complete puzzle to police and
everybody who has met her.
She is human enigma that would
puzzle Sherlock Holmes.

AS TO COLDS

Feed a cold-yes, but
feed it with Scott's Emul-
sion. Feeding a cold in this
way kills it. You cannot
afford to have a cough or
cold at this season or any
other. SCOTS Emulsion
will drive it out quickly
and keep it out. Weak
lungs are strengthened
and all wasting diseases
are checked by Scott's
Emulsion. It's a great
flesh producer.

The Bane of Her Life Was Stomae
Trouble

Miss Gertrude Pogue. 1407 Central
Ave, Cincinnati, Ohio, Secretary Social
Economics Club, writes:
Stomach trouble has been the bane
Of my existence for a good many years.
1 tried a number of remedies for dys-
pepsia and indigestion, thinking that
was the trouble, but nothing helped me
until l took the right medicine for the
right trouble.
II was suffering with catarrh Of the
stomach and did not know it. Peruna
took hold of the seat of the trouble and
soon exterminated it from my system.
II have splendid appetite now, my
food does not distress me and I am
growing feshier. 1 have a look of health
which 1 have not had for years."
There are multitude of homes where
Peruna has been used off and on for

One reason why Peruna has found
permanent use in so many homes is that
1t contains no narcotics of any kind.
Peruna is perfectly harmless. 1t can
be used any length of time without ac-
quiring drug habit. Peruna does not
produce temporary results. 1t is per-
manent in it's effect.
1t has no bad effects upon the system,

Health Officer Lindsay Reports That
Woman and Son Left, the Latter
Not Having Recovered from
Scarlet Fever

Montpelier, Jan. 17.--A case OF break.
ing of quarantine established by the
city health officer, TO prevent the spread
Of scarlet fever, was reported to the
local health board last evening, at q spec.
ial meeting, and II the situation is as
Dr.. Lindsay believes, many persons we're
exposed by the departure Of the people
for Winoosld short time ago.
Health Officer Lindsay reported that
Mrs. II. NJ. Fountain and son arrived in
Montpelier from Winooski on December
rs last, going directly from the station
TO the residence Of Horace Lawrence.
a day or so later the boy came down
with scarlet fever. On December 30
the health officer served notice on the
woman and Mr.. Lawrence that thew
Kslist not leave the house. Last week
Friday the latter called up the health
officer and told him that the woman and
the boy, who was sick, had started back
| for Winooski. He said that he was
out in the barn when the two left,
that he had tried to dissuade them from
going and that he had refused to let
I them have his team TO 20 to the station
with. Mr.. Lawrence said that q strange
team came and got them.
Dr. Lindsay says that the boy was
far from recovery and that his condition
was such as TO spread the disease. 1T
was pa hours after the two left before
he was notified OF their departure. A
belated warning has been sent to the
board of health at Winooski and the
state board Of health has been commu.
nicated with.
1t Is not known now whether the pub
lie schools will open next Monday as
planned The health officer refuses to
diyulge the number Of cases Of scarlet
fever reported to him, but occasionally
reports come out of new cases. The
cases thus far have not been particularly
serious.
Another interesting case was reported
to Che board of health last evening, and
there is considerable difference Of opin-
ion involved in it. Last Friday Dr. J..
r. Grimes reported to the health officer
that man at one Of the local hotels
was suffering with measles and that
there was no one to care for him. con-
yeying the impression that the man was
practically a city charge. Health OH
Ger Lindsay decided that it was matter
for the overseer Of the poor to attend
TO, and Overseer Parmenter was called.
The latter caused the man who was suf-
fering with the measles to be removed
to house just outside the city. Now
the relatives Of the man come and say
that the man is not a city charge and
that they do not want the city to take
charge Of him. No action was taken
BY the board last evening.

Thompson was driving down the street
at fairly fast clip.
Mrs. Dunton is quite deaf and did not
hear the team, and as she was in q htr-
ry to get home was not looking. The
driver thought that she heard him and
did not pay very much attention, think
ing that the woman would get across the
road before he got to her.
Mrs. Dunton was not aware of the
approach Of the team until she was
struck and knocked down. The blow
was a heavy one. Mr.. Thompson stop
ped his horse as soon as possible, and he
with Vet. Cameron took the woman to
her home. Or. Sticlsney was summoned.
The woman was considerably cut about
the head in addition to having two ribs
broken. She passed fairly comforta-

in the city, and many years ago de-
lighted an Aberdeen audience in local

CHINA WARNED.
United States Serves Notice That She
Must Keep Away.

Washington, Jan. 17.-China's atten-
tion has again been indirectly invited
by the American government to the ne
cessity for a faithful maintenance of
her neutrality, not only in her personal
interest, but in the interest of the
worlds peace.
Secretary Hay, on the receipt Of the
full text of Count Lamsdorff's note ex-
pressing Russia's belief that China's
neutrality had been repeatedly violated,
today prepared instructions for the
American charge at Pekin, directing him
to make inquiry of the Chinese govern
ment regarding the situation.
1t il specifically declared that this ac.
tion cannot in any way be construed as
indicating that this goyrnment as
sumes responsibility for the charges
made by Russia. Indeed, this govern
ment has received no information
through its legations at Pekin nor
through the various American consul
ates in China that the Chinese are vio-
lating the rules of neutrality.
Nevertheless, IN view of Russia's ex-
pressed anxiety over the situation in
China her investigation discloses that
the American government is ready to
do what it can to save China and the
other neutral powers from the far-reaeh-
ing complications which il is feared
would follow an extension to Chinese
territory Of the zone Of hostilities.
This is the second time Secretary
Hay, in friendly spirit, has urged on
China the advantage which strict OBJ
.seryation Of neutrality holds, not only
for her people, but the remainder Of the
world.
China is the one subject of converse
tion in diplomatic circles. AT the state
department today, Sir Mortimer Durand,
the British ambassador, was among the
earliest callers. He had a long con-
versation with Mr.. LOOMS, who Is act
ing secretary Of state while Mr.. Hay is
confined to his house by cold.
Shortly after Sir Mortimer left, Bar
on Bussehe, the German charge d'af-
faires, saw Mr.. Loomis for few mo-
ments on the same subject. Az the
representative Of the government from
which emanated the suggestion that the
American government invite the powers
concurrently to urge on Russia and Ja-
pan the respecting Of Chinese neutrali-
ty, his visit was naturally significant
