A Savings Bank Worthy of Patron
age.

While few have chosen to criticise
Carroll S. Page for his liberal use OF
printers ink in the advertising of the
Hyde Park Savings Bank the fact goes
to prove that the use oft for the past
six months has increased the deposits in
his Savings Bank nearly quarter of a
million dollars.
1t also tends to prove that Carroll S.
Page has the confidence of his many
depositors who are not only from his
own county but throughout the state at
large.
A bank that believes in home invest
ments, that finds plenty of opportunities
for those investments at home, and tran
sacts it's financial affairs upon a solid
basis without assuming unnecessary
risks, is worthy of patronage and its
promoters worthy of unbounded praise.
There are opportunities enough for
good solid investments in Vermont if one
has the eye and the keenness to look them
up; Carroll S. Page has an eye for these
investments and this is why he holds
the public confdencein the Hyde Park
Savings Bank Newport Express and
Standard.

He remodelled the coast defenses and to-
day both the Atlantic and Pacific coasts
are lined with disappearing guns that
will protect us from any invaders. AS
Senator he did not rank with his pre-
decessor as a constitutional lawyer, but
he was generally recognized as one of
that small coterie of leaders in the upper
body among whom might be mentioned
Aldrich, Hale, Spooner, Foraker and
Allison. He was loyal party man, yet
left his colleagues in the party when he
stood for the Philippine tariff and on
other notable occasions. More than any
one else in the United States he was re-
sponsible for the Spanish American war
by his direct and impassioned speech
after his return from Cuba in the spring
of 1898. He was chairman of the COM
mittee on agriculture and was member
OF the appropriations and other impor-
tant committees. He was always help
ing his native state and her loyal sons,
Fort Ethan Allen being one OF his ideas
Senator Proctor's generosity was not
confined to his town, where a Y. NJ. C.
A., library and hospital attest to his
generosity, but Rutland's city park and
the Pittsford Sanitorium are notable
examples of his philanthropy.
Senator Proctor married on May &c,
1858, Emily j. Dutton, daughter of
Salmon F. Dutton of Cavendish. They
had been children and schoolmates to-
gether and friends from the first. Five
children were born to them. three of
whom are living; Gov. Fletcher D. Proc

considered absolutely necessary for an

us many changes in fashion. Waists are
entirely different in cut, collars and
sleeves have altered their shape and
skirts bear little relation to those of II

Rough silks of all sorts play a great
part in the spring fashions. OF these

And the rough pongee weaves OF domes-
tic, French and Oriental origin are now
being made up into the very smartest OF

every man to his trade" is an old
adage and is familiar to nearly all of us.
1t is brief in its wording but conveys a
great deal in its meaning. 1t is merely a
terse way of saying that man who
makes a speciality of any one thing
knows more about, and is more prof.
cient in his particular speciality than any
one else could be. 1t is for this reason
that we all seek a specialist when we
have any serious physical ailment. 1t is
for the same reason that The Rydale
Remedy Co.. went to one OF the best
specialists in the U. S. on liver and in
testinal troubles, a professor in Column
bus. o. Medical College, and secured
from him a prescription from which
Rydale's Liver Tablets are made. This
specialist knew more about liver troubles
than doctor who treats all diseases;
and that is why Rydale's Liver Tablets
relieve and cure more quickly all liver
troubles than the ordinary liver pills and
powders.
