II Recoiled.

The Rutland Herald's attack upon
Acknowledgement Fits has recoiled
The Bennington and Brattleboro pa
pers came quickly to Mr.. Fits de-
fence and they seem to show that
the newly created official not only
has performed distinct and valuable
services 10 the state, but has done
better work than was formerly done
and at less cost to the state. II
has seemed to us that an attorney
general is legal official that We have
needed for many years. The state
certainly ought to have In its ser
vice q competent attorney and an ad
wiser to- the executive department;
and as an adviser and prosecutor in

of this class cannot be called upon
for authoritative opinion on any sub.
ject for the reason that their 'juris
diction is not state wide and they
might not agree with each other
Furthermore, the county attorneys
are usually young men with limited
experience, who could not undertake
large cases with the same confidence
and power as an older and more ex-
pcrienced man. The practice OF the
counties is to elect the young men
to that Office and that practice is
likely to be continued. 1t helps the
young men to an income and exper-
fence and probably does the state no
harm--at least, not with an expert
enced head attached to the depart
ment.
1t seems to us, however, that a
change might profitably be made il.

be divided into districts, with ap.
proximately two counties in a dis
trict, dividing them as near as may
be into population equality. This
would cut down the number Of oil.

reasonable increase in compensation,
with a reduction in expense to the
state, The sittings of county courts
could be arranged so that the coun-
ties which made a district would no.
require the services of the district at.
torney at the same time. This charge
with the services of an attorneygen-
eral of such capacity as the state
can always command, would bring
the legal department up to modern

In spite of all the gibes poked at
John d. Spellman of Rutland and the
Independence league ticket which he
nominated at Rutland last week the
joke may not be entirely on Spellman.
OF course his ticket will poll only a
few votes this year but, as the st.
Adams Messenger has so ably pointed
out, the ties that bind the voters to
the cid political parties are dying
out and surely, and not so very slow
~ a different alignment is coming
the socialistic tendency against the
indiyidualistic. The Independence
League party in Vermont this year
is only an incident but it may be
a symptom OF the inevitable end OF
the old lines of division.

LYDIA E. PINKHAM

No other medicine for Woman's
Ills in the world has received such
widespread and unqualified en-

hams Vegetable Compound, made
from native roots and herbs.
No other medicine has such a
record of success for woman's dis

friends as has Lydia 4. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound.
For more than 30 years it has been
the standard remedy for feminine
ills, inflammation, liberation, and
consequent Spinal Weakness.
1t has relieved more cases of Back
ache and Local Weaknesses than
any other one remedy. 1t dissolves
and expels tumors in an early stage
OF development.
Irregularities and periodic pains,
Weakness Of the Stomach, Indiges-
ton, Bloating, Nervous Prostration,
Headache, General Debility, quickly
yield to it; also deranged organs,
causing pain, dragging sensations
and backache. Under all circum-
stances it acts in harmony with the
female system.
1t removes that wearing feeling,
extreme lassitude, "don't care "and
swami to be left alone" feeling,
excitability, neutrality-suspicious.

you without question or delay and we will pay

But to get you to know how good 1t is as well

Furthermore, we know that after you have

FOR PIMPLES, TOO
New Discovery Cures Eczema and
Eradicates Minor Skin Troubles
Overnight.

Eradlcstes Minor Skin Troubles
Overnight.
A few months ago the dispensers of
poslam, the new discovery for the cure
OF eczema, decided to allow the drug
gists of the country TO handle it. Pre-
vious to that time It could only be OBJ
tanned direct from the laboratories.
Since this change in the method of
distribution, poslam has met with the
most phenomenal success of anything
introduced to the drug trade in the
last 30 years. All leading druggists,
including w. l.. Gokay In Bennington
are now carrying the special so cent
size recently adopted, also the 81 jar.
This great success Is not surprising
when II is remembered that, in &C.
Zema cases, poslam stops the itching
with first application, proceeds 10 heal
Immediately, and cures chronic cases
in few weeks. In minor skin trou-
bles, such as pimples, blackheads, ac-
ne, herpes, blotches, rash, etc, results
show after an overnight application.
Experimental samples of poslam are
sent to anyone by mail free OF charge
by the Emergency laboratories 80
