Conditions like this could be handled
much better if the present system of cleo.
ton was abolished and the old method
put in use again. The sum of $l33. IL
for conducting March meeting is wanton
waste OF the towns money. The Aus

Go to town meeting and stay until by

ECZEMA GERM DISCOVERED
DR.. Dennis, Well Known Specialist, Elk
plains Discovery in An Official Report.

In a paper read before the National Medi-
cal society in Chicago, DR.. d. D. Dennis ex-
planned his experiments which led up to the
discovery of the eczema germ.
This discovery has settled the long disput-
ed questions that skin diseases are due not
to condition of the blood but to disease of
the skin itself. DR.. Dennis explained that
cures could be effected only by curing the
skin through the skin. The majority of skin
sufferers, he said, were entirely healthy in
all other respects, showing no pathological
symptoms.
gradients direct to the injured skin the
doctor explained how the diseased condition
could be relieved instantly taking away the
terrible itch and leading to an early cure.
The reading of the paper was followed by
a general discussion in which number of
Chicago's most eminent physicians partici-
pated In reply to several questions, DR..
mtted the D. D. D. Co. of Chicago to put
out his prescription in original bottles to be
sold at 81 a bottle, instead Of stating his
formula only to brother physicians who could
then prescribe the remedy. DR.. Dennis said
there were thousands of sufferers from skin
diseases who could not or would not pay
the regular fees for being under the care
be accomplished by selling ID d. D. Pre-
scription' in original bottles through drug
gists. He declared that he did not con
slider his remedy 0 patent medicine in the
ordinary sense of the word, which was evil
denced by the fact that while some brother
physicians had apparently grown jealous of
him, others were freely directing their pa
eczema and similar diseases

President of vt. Mutual Dead.

Col. Fred E. Smith, II, prominent citi-
zen of Montpelier, died Sunday morn
ing of heart failure superinduced by a
slight attack of pneumonia. Colonel
Smith had not been well for year or
more, but was at his office every day
until Saturday. He was born in North
field, Vt, in June, 1880. Prior to 1861
he was a druggist in Montpelier. He
served in the civil war as quartermaster
in the Sth Vermont regiment.
The value of his opinions and the trust
reposed in his ability is shown by the
varied and important Offices which he
held. At the time of his death he was
president of the Vermont Mutual Fire
company, president of the First Ma,
tional bank of Montpelier president of
the Maplewood Improvement company of
Tennessee director of the National
Life Insurance company of Montpelier, a
trustee of Washington county grammar
school and of Norwich university at

pelier and of the Loyal Legion, He was
also senior warden in Christ Episcopal
church at Montpelier.

ssIt Takes Time
(Morrisville News and Citizen.)

(Morrisville News and Citizen.)
The st. Adams Messenger calls atten-
ton to the fact that eX-Goy. Edward Z.
Smith. while governor in 1898, made a
recommendation which was enacted into
A law at the last session of legislature.
We quote from The Messenger:
'In 1898, Gov. Edward G. Smith ad-
yocated the reconstruction of the states
auditing system, the remodeling of its
methods of accounting and general
shakeup in the state auditors office.
Eight years later Gov. Fletcher ID. Proc
tor is employed by law to appoint a
commission to do part of this work. 1t
takes time for a good idea to take root
and bear fruit" =,
The study of the growth of new ideas
is an interesting one and the simile OF
The Messenger of the seed taking root
and later on bearing fruit, is good
one.
Both Governor Smith and Governor
Fletcher d. Proctor were members OF the
legislature of 1890, If we remember cor
rectly, neither of them agreed fully with
the recommendations of Governor Page,
but it seems quite apparent that Gov
ernor Pages recommendations at that
session "tooll root" and while only a
part of them came to fruition during his
term of office, they furnished substantial
" the entire ground work of large
majority of the most important laws
passed by the legislature of 1906;
BY referring to Governor Pages lnau-
gural message, it will be found that he
made the following seven distinct and
specific recommendations:
lst-The Australian ballot.
2d-Restriction of child labor.
3d-A readjustment of the burdens Tor
the support of schools.
4th-The granting of additional powers
to the railroad commission.
5th-The abolition of railroad passes
6th-Weekly payments.
7th-An increase in the amount of
taxes to be paid by railroads, =.
With the exception of the first, which
became a law in 1890, every one of these
measures were enacted into statutes in
1906. "The mills of the gods grind slow,
but they grind exceeding small" "Th,.
leaven Of $780, has worked slowly and
under adverse conditions, but an edu-
Gated public sentiment has finally forced
the adoption of practically the entire
list of Governor Pages recommendations

the head when he says: ut takes time
for good idea to- take root and bear
fruit and he might have added that
other proverb, Nothing is ever settled
until it is settled right"
