THE TWO INviNCI6LES
Cod Liver Oh and Iron.

Cod Liver oil and iron in some form or
other are prescribed by physicians the
world over more than any other two rem.
edies the world has ever known, for
anemia or poor blood, weakness, con-
valescence, and all wasting and pulmon-
airy diseases.
Iron, because it is the basis of the
blood, and without a sufficient amount the
blood is impoverished, watery, pale and
impure.
Cod Liver Oil. because ii contains cur.
alive and reconstructive qualities greater
than that possessed by any other one me
dicinal agent.
In vinol, modern science has given to
the world combination OF these two
iron, but shorn of all useless oil or dis
agreeable features.
Vinol is mace by a scientific, extrac-
tive and concentrating process from fresh
Gods livers, combining with peptonate-
building elements Of cod liver oil, but no
oil.
As body-builder and strength crea-
tor for old people, delicate children,
weak, rundown persons, after sickness,
and for chronic coughs, colds, bronchitis,
and all throat and lung troubles, vinol is
unexceiled.
We ask Randolph people to give vinol
a trial. 1t won't cost anything unless 1t
gives satisfaction. III. A. Leonard, drug

Page and Savings Bank Advertising
From The Bellows Falls Times.


Not so many years ago it was almost as
unprofessional fora bank to advertise as
for doctor. OF late banks have become
more sensible but doctors remain as hide
bound as ever.
The man who has done more to popu-
larize bank advertising in Vermont than
any dozen other men is Hon. Carroll s.
Page of Hyde Park. In fact he has ad-
vertised the Hyde Park Savings Bank so
persistently that other banks, particular
ly those in the northern part of the state,
have been forced to advertise for self pro-
lection. Bank advertising in Vermont is
now considered quite the proper thing.
Keep Vermont money in Vermont for
the development of Vermont is a good
rule for banking conduct and no doubt
most Vermont banks would like to follow
the rule if they could. 1t is simply inn
possible for all the banks of the state to
keep all Vermont money in Vermont.
The Hyde Park bank is more fortunate
than others in being able to invest its
money in the state.
What appeals to newspapers of the
state is Mr.. Pages Astounding faith in the
efficacy of advertising and his persstency
in carrying out his convictions. That he
pays his bills promptly and is no kicker
are also points in his favor.
Through practical business methods
and sensible publicity he has built up in
little cne-horse town a hide business
that leads the world. His ambition
seems to be to make his bank as famous
as his hide business.

The first year under the license law,
one town in Orange county, Bradford,
went yes; since then the entire county
has been dry until this year, when two
towns, Braintree and Corinth, voted IL
cense. Both towns have been rather close
in their vote for several years, and this
time, through the operation of local con-
ditions, the scale has turned, and Orange
county furnishes its full quota of the Ii
cense towns in the state. 1t is probably
but temporary alignment. Unless Ii
cense in these towns works much better
than in most small places, one year Of it
will be sufficient. If the selling could be
limited to the wet towns, and not be so
harmful to the dry towns about, the
latter would not have SO keen an interest
beyond their borders. One license town
dozen miles, and its influence is felt far
beyond that radius. The license commits
sioners of Braintree and Corinth owe a
duty to this entire section. The business
must De run SO rs 10 proouce Tie
least possible offense. 1t would be well
il they would make it a condition of
the granting of a license that the Ii
censee should not sell to drunkards and
paupers, not only of their own towns, but
of others, and if the selectmen of neigh
boring towns would file lists of such per-
sons with them for the guidance of licen-
sees.

Stewards Appointment creditabre

In the appointment of ex-Gov. John
w. Stewart of Middlebury as ad interim
successor to the late Senator Proctor,
there is fitting recognition of a man
whose past public service and whose high
personal standing are especially in hsr-
mony with the traditions and dignity of
the Office. Again, in making an appoint
ment, the fairness of which as regards its
bearing upon the interests of rival candi-
dates among whom Gov. Stewart is not
to be counted, it is not easy to see how
Gov. Proctor could have acted more fairly
or more wisely. Morrisville Messenger.

Governor johnson of Minnesota has
finally come out into the open with a
'Barkis-is-willin' - declaration. which
means, in effect, that he will contest the
Democratic nomination with Bryan. The
latter will probably win, but johnson
may get support enough from the East
and anti-Bryan sections to prevent NOM
nation for some time, as it requires a
two-thirds vote to nominate in the con
vention. All the fun will not be at Chi

Gently as Taft newspaper, backs water
as follows:-
''If Mr.. Bryan runs it will need a
strong candidate to beat him. This Mr..
Roosevelt could do easily enough, if the
convention was at liberty to nominate
him. But whether Mr.. Taft could,
among all the complications, is, to say
the least, very doubtful. And therefore
the Register does not care to be commit
ted too strongly to any particular candi-
date, but thinks the best way is to send
representative Vermonters, especially
with good leaders, and trust to their ma
tured judgment and in the reelection OF
candidates when the national convention

So common is this nervous disease IN
childhood that in some schools one-hfth

ing from IL in one form or another.
Before the presence of the disease - be-
trayed, there is usually q disturbance OF
the general health. The child shows list

comes restless and twitching OF the mus
cles and jerking of the limbs and body

comes pale and bloodless. A remedy that

the case are known to everyone IN thar
little town where the family IL well

daughters suffering and of her recovery
follows:-
"when not quite seven years old, Mel
lie was taken with st. vitus' dance and
was sick for over five months. She had
always been healthy and was never OF a
nervous disposition and I am at a loss to
explain the cause of her sickness. When
quite young, she had scarlatina but had
apparently entirely recovered from IL.
She began TO complain during the early
part of the winter, before her sickness,
of chiils and a nurnbness in her sides,
but we thought nothing of it at the time.
Later her teacher told me that Nellie
would drop of to sleep in school and
that she did not disturb her for she
thought sleep would do her more good
than study and that we ought to take her
out of school.

Since January 1 there have been 81
prisoners sent up to the house of correc-
ton from all over the state for breach of
the peace. OF this number over half, II,

the reason that Windsor is twice as
tough as all the rest of the state, or be-
cause the Windsor officers enjoy the trip

seem, could better afford to give in than
to keep up the fight very long, as the
differences are not great. Barre may be

So far, there has been little exhibition of
ill feeling, but it would be strange il this

ment comes. The Barre Anarchists, it
seems, are already active, seeking to

YOU

Taking
Cod
Liver
Oil
THIS
WAY

G. o. ID. Tablets present cod liver oil to
you in the form of a dry, easily swaI-
lowed tablet which leaves no unpleasant
or siekening taste in your mouth. All
the good qualities of the best Norwegian
Cod Liver Oil are contained in these tab
lets and all the Objectionable qualities OF
the oil are absent. These tablets excel
the plain oil in many ways, few of the
most important of which we list below.
c. o. ID. Tablets are easy to take mas
much as they have no repulsiye taste or
odor. The plain oil is very hard TO take
because of its disagreeable odor and
taste.
c. o. ID. Tablets never cause that ris-
ing in the throat of a sickening "ashy''
taste or gas such as very often follows the
taking of the plain cod liver oil.
c. o. ID. Tablets never upset the stom-
ach or disturb digestion. The continued
use of plain cod liver oil is certain to
nauseate the stomach and seriously re-
tard the processes of digestion.
c. o. ID. Tablets not only possess all
the valuable principles of cod liver oil
but they also contain the Hypophosphites
OF Lime and Soda and sufficient qusnti-
ty OF that gentle laxative, Licorice, to
carry on any excess OF oil should You
take more Of the Tablets than your sys-
tenn can assimilste.
c. 0. ID. Tablets are guaranteed to be
better in every way than pure cod liver

Why is authority to bind a community
to an important course of action given to
five per cent of the voters ? Why are 50
out of every 100 deprived of all power of
self-government, so far as the caucus is
ncerned?-Burlingto News.
Reasonable questions, surely. We sup
pose this power is given SO as to have a
starting point some here in the invok-
ing of caucus regulation. AS a general
proposition, the caucus law is put forth
as a reasonable method of handling the
matter. 1t would be impractical to hold
town meeting in advance to determine
whether majority of voters want to use
it or not, and instead petition bearing a
number of names sufficient to assure a
reasonable support in the community is
required. 1t is the same principle on
which a druggists license is issued, in
response to a petition; or special town
meetings are called; or many other things
done that are governed by general law
when once the wheels are set in motion.

Why Business Men Arc Glad 10 Have

From day to day it may be seen in the newspapers, treated as a matter out of the ordinary and therefore of much interest, that he, meaning 6 man of money and influence and so- cial standing has married his stem ographer" The idea seems to be that because Che has money and "she" is or was a stenpgrapher, something un- usual has occurred-something on the order of the prince who married the beggar maid in the 1>,ry story.
 But why, really should there be any fuss about 1t? Applying com mon sense to the proposition, are not the chances about equal that "he" has done much better by marrying his stenographer than he would have done by going Into society" for his bride, and that 'she" has made sacrifices in marrying him? The assumption, presumably fig that it is 'hc" who has stopped but in tho majority of ln- stances 1t would doubtless be found that "she" stopped to conquer.
 It is not a rare thing that the man of much money is coarse, unloVely fellow who has acquired his pile of this worlds goods through the cXcr- else of a kind of shrewdness that would not show up well in the light of publicity or stand inspection by the grand jury, But, having the money he holds a position In the Be- feet circles of the upper ten thous- and, Is 1t not sacrifice rather than an advantage, when stenographer marries such man.
 As a rule the stcnographer and typewriter girls who succeed in busi- ness and who attract the admiration and sincere affection of their employ- CTS do so upon merit alone. They make places for themselves because they are worthy of them. They have brains to use, and they know how to use them. They arc not dolls, suit ed only to bc played with at social functions. They know what life nIans, what it's struggles are, and what disappointmonts are inevitable. The society doll Is a perpetual burden upon those who may become charged with her support
