HOME REMEDY,
Especially Valued by the Elderly Peo-
pie Who Suffer.

The following prescription for the
cure of rheumatism and kidney and
bladder troubles has no doubt been
filled millions of times, viz: Fluid Elk.
tract Dandelion, une.helf ounce Com
pound Kargon, one ounce; Compound
Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces
These simple, harmless ingredients
can be obtained at any good prescrip
ton pharmacy at little cost and are
mixed by shaking well in a bottle.
The dose for adults is teaspoon
full after each meal and at bedtime,
drinking a full tumblerful of water
after each dose. 1t is stated that this
prescription is a positive remedy for
kidney trouble and lame back, weak
bladder and urinary difficulties, espec-
tally of the elderly people, and one
Of the best things to be used in rheu-
matte Affections, relieving the aches
and pains and reducing swellings
A well known authority states that
this mixture acts directly upon the
eliminative tissues of the kidneys;
cleanses these sponge-like organs and
gives them power to sift and strain
the poisonous waste matter and uric
acid from the blood which is the cause
of rheumatism.
If your back or sides ache and you
suspect kidney trouble it would be
wise to try this for a few days.

TO Be ASSOCIATE
EDITOR Of THE

Statement That President Has
So Arranged
NO DENIAL BY SEC. LOEB
Generally Believed That Roosevelt
viii Take Up Editorial Work After
Return From Africa.

Washington, Oct. 2O.-No denial
was made yesterday at the White
House that President Roosevelt has
entered into a contract with The Out
look magazine to become associate
editor of that publication at the re-
ported salary of $4,000 a year on his
retirement from the Presidency in
March. The refusal of Secretary
Loeb to discuss the report was so
blunt and significant as to amount
practically to a confirmation.
Is the President to associate him.
self with DR.. Lyman Abbott in the
editorship of the publication when he
retires to private life?" Secretary
Loeb was asked.
There is nothing whatever to say
about that" was the reply.
Then there is nothing in the
story?" asked his questioner.
Il do not say that, retorted Mr..
Loeb Il cannot discuss the matter.
That is all"
Further efforts to get some explain
alton from Mr.. Loeb concerning the
Presidents probable work after
March 4 next were equally without
result
1t was learned that although the
President is under contract with
Charles Scribners Sons to write for
that concern the story of his hunting
experiences in the African Jungle. his
contract is not interpreted by him
to cover other matters in which he
may interest himself while abroad
It is considered likely here that Mr..
Roosevelt will make the Congo the
subject Of some of his articles in the
magazine.
In the significant absence of any
denial Of his connection with The
Outlook, those who know the Presi-
dent well are convinced that the ar.
rangement has been made. but. in
view OF the existing contract with
Scribners it may not become opera
tive until Mr. Roosevelt returns
from Africa in 1910. when his contract
with the Scribners will have been
completed

KILLED MONSTER MOOSE
n. c. Pratt Of New Haven Conn, Bags
Prize in New Brunswick.

The following is from the New
Haven, Conn., Register:
II. G. Pratt of 1856 Dixwell avenue
a travelling salesman for the Bronson
and Townsend company, has just re-
turned from his annual hunting trip
in New Brunswick On September
2Sth Mr.. Pratt killed a monster moose
at Mcconnell Brook Barren. The an
imal had antlers spreading SO inches
and weighed 1900 pounds. The most
remarkable thing about the killing Of
the moose was the fact that Mr.. Pratt
brought it down at a distance of 500
yards with one shot from a 1870 Win
chester rifle which he says is the best
gun for big game, The bullet entered
the left shoulder Of the breast and
passed directly through the heart and
the animal dropped in it's tracks.
While SHINING it later Mr.. Pratt re-
covered the bullet which he now
keeps as a souvenir.
Mr.. Pratt has been hunting big
game annually since 1894 and has a
fine collection of large game heads
which he is always pleased to display
to his friends. During his recent trip
he also secured 60 partridges, bring
ing every one Of them down with a
single shot from a ~ calibre rife. He
was in the woods for two weeks and
was accompanied by John Dryer of
Dalton, Mass who also got a fine
moose. Mr.. Dryers animal measur-
ed As inches across the antlers."
n. c. Pratt is the only son of the
late Isaac T. Pratt and is well known
in this village 1t would appear from
the above article that Henry is a chip
of the old block.

HOW JEWS PREPARE MEAT
Manner in Which Beef is Treated Be-
fore Being Cooked

Nearly every one knows that the
Jewish people. including the members
OF our local congregation, have a
special way of treating their beef be-
fore 1t is cooked. Few, however.
know the reason and the way In
which Il is done according TO their
customs. Following is brief ac-
count of the manner In which they
prepare their meat for cooking IN this
town and throughout the world IN
general.
In the first place the animal to be
killed is not stunned by being hit on
the head with hammer or other
blunt instrument as is the custom
among butchers In general before
killing. Instead the animals wind
pipe and iuglar vein Is cut with a
very sharp knife made especially for
this purpose. This knife Is about q
inches In length with a square end
about inches wide and is kept ex.
ceeding sharp and clean. being used
Tor no other purpose. When not I'm
use IL is kept In a case. This method
OF killing is said to be the most hui
name and sanitary way.
After being slaughtered and cut up
all the veins are taken out and the
blood extracted This last Is ac-
complished by soaking the meat about
a half an hour In salt and one hour
In water When this Is completed Il
is ready TO be cooked. The reason
for removing the blood and veins Is
that It renders the meat less liable to
cause sickness. Germs OF tubercu.
losis and other dread diseases are
said to be transmitted TO the human
system by means OF the blood con.
tanned In meat when killed and cut
up In the usual way. Statistics ap.
pear to prove this statement as the
number OF Jewish people who die
from consumption Is far less In pro.
portion than among people OF other
natlonalitics.
In large towns and cities special
men are appointed to act as butchers
after passing strict examination
concerning their understanding of the
law by the rabbits. In small towns
like Bennington this work Is done by
the local rabbi. Rev b. Cantor the
congregation not being able to sup
port men especially for this purnose.

GRACE GEORGE WEDNESDAY
French Comedy "Divorcons" at the
Bennington Opera House.


Grace George, after her New York
and London triumps, comes to Ben
nington Wednesday evening present.
ing the Margaret Mayo version Of
Sardou's "DivorconsY Mss George
viii appear in the part Of the captivat
ing and capricious Cyprienne, a role
to which she is said to be especially
adapted
AS might be prasupposed from its
title, "Divorcons" has TO do largely
with the all absorbing question of di-
yorce. The chief character is Cypri-
enne a young woman of great beauty
who has married a middle aged genius
whose whole time is devoted TO inven.
tons and who is somewhat eccentric
In the fulness OF time, she realizes
that she Is being more or less neglect
ed and her fancy turns TO a young
officer in the Forestry Department OF
the Government. "DivorcOns" might
apty be renamed. She fell in love
with her husband" for that describes
the plot OF the comedy as we'll as any
thing could.
The husband allows Cyprienne
every latitude and thus Il comes about
that she, woman like. realizes that
there is little Of romance In an affair
Of this kind when It Is not forbidden
and has apparently the full sanction
OF her husband
Miss George Is said to shine to I'M
usual advantage In this role. An OK
cellent supporting company, includ
ing Frank Worthing and Max Free
man will be with Miss George.

$4,000 FIRE IN GLOVER
Business Section Of Village Practical.
ly Wiped Out.


Glover, Oct 20.-A fire which des.
troped practically the entire business
part OF this village, entalling a loss
approximating 100000, with an insur.
ance OF about $4,000, broke out here
about l o'clock yesterday morning.
The fire was discovered In n horse
shed near the store of II. h. Davis.
Mr. Davis conducted a general mer.
camille business. as did Miles & Mill
er and l.. p. Drew, the two last
named being In the same building.
The three stores we're destroyed.
Nothing was saved in the Davis
store, which also contained the post
office. A part OF the merchandise
was saved from the other stores.
II looked for n time as though all
the village would be burned. The
school-house and two or three dwell.
llngs caught several times, but the
fire was extinguished
About o'clock call was sent to
Barton for help, and many responded.
There Is no fire protection and no
water system In the village. but a
bucket brigade was formed and water
brought from the Barton river, which
flows through the village
There are some rumors OF an in
cendiary cause. but no proof Is offer
ed to substantiate the assertion,
