any one has reason to praise Peruaa Il
is surely myself.
Last spring L became so run down
from the serious effects of a lingering
cold, that several complications united
in pulling medown. I could neither eat
nor sleep well, and lost flesh and spirit.
81 finally tried Peruna and it did
wonders for me. In two weeks l WAS
like another person, and in a month ]
felt better than l ever had before.

TO sleep, and caused him that long
period of research and suffering.
And yet, in behalf OF Mr.. Fowler.
we cannot but state our belief that he
does not mean to designate these "un-
tcnabe things" in the Methodist
church as the opiates OF hell" al
though he leads one to believe it, But
his repeated assertions seem to indi-
cate that he at least means TO say that
there will be a federation OF christians
when "all men are free from preju-
diccs' such as the above mentioned
OF the Methodist which put him to
Sleep.
Now, the above is what we honestly
gather from Mr.. Fowler'S sermon and
MS reply today. II we are in error,
we beg his pardon We assure him
of our sincerely and our belief in his:
at the same time conteudiug that his
attitude toward the other denomina-
tions is not calculated to forward the
movement to feIcra:a all christian
bodies.
As Mr.. Fowler says, no one need
reply in this mo,ter lie, them read
his article in this issue. which will
be reply TO what they may say"
All has been said. However. if any
one happens to BE- still in the dark. as

Supt. Brownscombe of the Montpelier
schools is advocating the use of paper
drinking cups for use in the schools, a
cup to be used once and then thrown
away, this to do away with the chance of
infection from the use of public cup
such as has been in use. Perhaps this is
a necessary precaution and the needs of
the present day demand the change, but
it remains to be seen just how the scheme
will work out in actual practice. How
ever, Mr. Brownscombe is receiving a
whole lot of good advertising

The academy of sciences at Paris has
established the fact that ultraviolet
rays passed through milk will complete
ly sterilize the liquid and efiectually rid
it of all microbes, without the loss of any
essential character of the milk. This
will be good news to Vermont farmers
who have plenty of ultraviolet rays lying
around the place. Now if this same
agent would also take out the water
consumers would be protected from
fraud as well as from bugs.

The fool and the gun again comes to
the front in the person of a Montpelier
young man. Speaking of this the Rut-
land News puts it about right by saying
"By no means does every man who
didn't know it was loaded escape as
fortunately as did that Montpelier young
man who while fooling with revolver he
was sure was empty of cartridges pulled
the trigger four times with the weapon
pointed at his head and when he pulled
it the fifth time had it pointed elsewhere
and the overlooked cartridge exploded,
the bullet crashing into a mirror. We
don't know whether the life of such an
uncomfortable fool is worth saving OF
not Providence knows better about
that. He was probably preserved for a
more violent death

The souvenier booklet just issued by
the New York educational department
for the Lake Champlain tercentenary is a
work of art and should be the means of
drawing many people to the coming cell
ebration. The book is historical and
educational in character, illustrated with
colored plates and half-tones, with a
specially designed cover showing view
of the lake taken from Mount Defiance.
1t contains much matter of interest and
will well repay careful perusal. II the
coming souvenir book of the Vermont
commission equals this the celebration
will certainly be well advertised in this
respect

TIE OTHER SIDE OLE LII.

1t doesn't apreal to us that it was a
very brave or necessary act for that
young man in Hyde Park to blaze away
at that burglar early Saturday morning
and shoot him to death, under the cir
cumstances. If the young man had met
the yeggman hand to hand, or if alone he
met him under Instantaneous or even
equal conditions, it would have been an
excusable if not commendable act to
have shot him if he hesitated to surren-
der. But the burglar was surrounded
by posse and was at their mercy. The
killing of the man was apparently unnec-
essary and was due to the excitement
under which the inexperienced young
men comprising the posse labored. How
ever, the fact stands that the killing of
the burglar will have salutary effect.

TOWN REPRESENTATION.

The proposition of the Mortified News
for system of reduced town representa-
ton has in it some elements of novelty.
1t is, briefly, for grouping enough towns
together to form a unit of 2000, such
unit to have one representative, the Of
flee to alternate among the unit towns
1t also proposes to return one-half the
representatives for a second Term, on
some basis to be proposed later. This
appeals to the News as still leaving the
balance of power with the small towns,
while it would probably reduce the size
of the House 100 members. The Water
bury Record will now be heard from.

JUDGE WEEKS.

The Rutland Herald this week paid
it's respects to the numerous candidates
for governor in 1910 in caustic edit
orial. 1t believes the contest will in the
end be between Mead of Rutland, Smith
of Chittenden and Weeks of Addison.
1t attempts to discredit the latter by
calling him farmer" and predicting a
repetition of the Bell campaign in his
behalf. Born on farm he has become
one of the most successful business men
in the State, broadminded man of ar
fairs who has never failed to prove COM
petent and faithful in every position of
trust that he has been chilled upon to
fill.-Vergennes Vermonter.

THE HON. OLIN.

The Age has been told not to worry
over Hon. DIN Merrill and the governor
ship; that, in fact, he stands no show
whatever, and the persistent omission of
his name from the frightening list of
candidates seems to confirm this view of
the situation. At the same time just as
reliable information is at hand that Hon.
DIN, who as everybody knows, is pref
ty good political strategist, thinks that
1910 is his year for governing Vermont
This being the case, he stands more than
fair show and very few of the names
thus far mentioned need give him any
concern.-W Woodstock Age.

Indianapolis, June 2.-Delevan
Smith and Charles r. Williams, own

connection with Panama canal graft
charges, scored partial victory here.
Both appeared before Judge Ander-
son In the United States district court
to resist removal to the District of
Columbia, and during the course Of the
hearing obtained a ruling in their IA
vor which practically holds that they
were not responsible for the alleged
libels.
1t is not unlikely that both will be
eventually dropped from the case, in
which the proprietOrs' of the New York
World are also defendants.
The government resists the intro
duction of evidence in the hearing,
Attorneys Mcnamara and Miller con-
tending that it was not essential for
a committing magistrate to hear evil
dence.
Judge Anderson ruled against the
governments contention and called
attention to the necessity of proving
express, not implied, malice in a
prosecution for criminal libel, and
said that it was his duty to determine
this question by hearing evidence be-
fore he could decide whether the de-
