life has carried himself in such a way
as to win marked appreciation.

THOUSANDS CRIPPLED WITH
RHEUMATISM
Find in Uric-O a Real Cure.

If rheumatism continues to spread as
it has in the past few years, it would
seem as though we would before long
become nation of cripples. The terrible
destructiveness of this disease is appar-
ent on every side of us. Almost nine
out of ten of the crippies one meets had
their affection brought OF by Rheuma-
tism. If you ever have any twinges of
rheumatism. go to the druggist and get
bottle of Uric-O, the wonderful new
Rheumatic Specific. 1t will cure you
and it is the only treatment in the world
that will cure you permanently and
thoroughly, Urico-O by its direct action
on the muscles, blood and kidneys, seeks
out the poisonous Uric and Rheumatic
Acid and drives it from the system.
Liniments and plasters never cure Rheu-
matism, because it is primarily blood
disease, and until the blood is cleared
from the poison cure cannot take place
Urico-O is sold by druggists at 75c. and
S1.00 a bottle. You can obtain liberal
sample by applying to the Smith Drug
Co.. 81 Smith Bldg, Syracuse, N. Y.

Those Bird q e S,

The Rutland railroad company has two
wooden bridges in the center of the viii
lage that would be good easy marks for
the ravages of the relic-hunter; should
the o'erweening desire of the present
generation overcome its conscientious
ness, it could rend those bridges splinter
from splinter with bare hands. The CO.
hesion Of the particles composing those
bridges is so weak that the school-chil-
dren of grade one could walk off with
both structures in instalments.
People walking over the bridges when
trains are passing run no less risk than
that of being blown up into the air by
blasts from the smokestacks that come
up through the holes with force enough
to take off hats, clothes and one might
almost state, cuticle. One public-spirited
citizen robbed dry goods box of a cover
last week and patched up the biggest
hole. The railroad, it is only fair tc
state, have started to commence to be
gin fixing, but has not got far as yet.
The rising generation-as well as the
sinking one-should be earnestly ex
horted by all who possess the requisite
veneration for these causeways to re-
frain from shutting their feet or scratch
ing matches there, because no mar
knoweth when we shall get other bridges
to replace these; we may not see theil
like again

The total increase in deposits in banks

surplus in banks is well over half mil

to about two millions. During all the

quired notice for a withdrawal of de-
posits. Little old Vermont may not
loom up as mighty big on the financial
horizon as some of 'em, but when it
