jaws were set upon arrival at the hos
pital. the mouth could be opened only
about quarter of an inch and it was
very difficult for the patient to swal-
low. The contraction began to give
way in about five or six days and on
the 12h day Of the disease began to
improve. He was sent home cured
about the 25th day after the disease
developed. The attending surgeon and
hospital staff feel that the mans life
was saved by amputating the fingers

Board of Pharmacy.
The state board of pharmacy which
has been in session at Montpelier elect
ed the following officers: President.
j. G. Bellrose, Burlington; secretary,
D. F. Davis, Barre; treasurer. w. R.
Warner. Vergennes. Mr.. Bel]rose is
the father of the board. He was influ-
entail in getting through the statute
in Legislature IA years ago. was elect
ed its first secretary, which Office he
has continuously held for ID years.
This was the first time he would allow
his name to be considered as candidate
for president. The board has occasion
to feel pleased over its work IN the
last year. in the reciprocity movement
which the physicians, bar and other
organizations have taken up in inter.
changing certificates from one state
to another. At present four of the
| New England states allow licenses to
be granted on presentation of certif-
Gates from one of the other three
states. These are Massachusetts. Yer
mont, Maine and Connecticut under
the New England association. One
thing the members can feel justly
proud of is the fact that Vermont is
the first state which Massachusetts has
exchanged with. The members of the
board have visited other states, gain
J ing much information of value for ex-
I aminations. Vermont board exchanges
with many of the other states Of the
National association outside Of the
New England states Among these
are Texas, Arkansas and Georgia. Ir
the year ending January l, as candi.
dates have been examined, and of this
number IA were successful. The board
has revoked 10 licenses for on-confor-
nifty to statutes and other causes. II
has issued licenses to 80 persons pre-.
senting certificates under the reciproc.
ity arrangement who are now practic
ing in this state and have granted 2:
certificates to persons who have gone
to other states to practice. One thir g
the board is hopeful of and that is
that the legislature should vote te
build an annex to the state house in
order that room will be afforded fol
the board in which TO do its work.
At present they have no chance for
practical laboratory work from which
better results are obtained than there
can be from written examinations.

Evils Of "Pistol Toting."

In the February number of Uncle
Remus' Magazine there is timely
article on the baneful effects of
pistol toting." Its salient points
should be warning to many people
who are addicted to the habit.
There is too much pistol toting'
all through the South. The mere
possession of a deadly concealed
weapon has certain psychological
effect upon the most conservative of
temperaments. Upon even strong
character the feel of a pistol is
likely to bread the desire to use the
pistol.
I'm most human beings, with
average advantages and average edu
cation, this desire to feel that one
can kill if one chooses-this cheap
love of the spectacular-passes away
rather early in life; or is reserved
for more legitimate and recognized
exercise on the side of law and or
der, or in wartime, or in some dan
gerous calling. But the tough ma
ture does not care whether it is eX-
ercised on the side of recognized au-
thority or not; it is simply it's ex-
ercise that such a nature desires
He wants to see himsel in a heroic
attitude.
IF the young men in the rural
communities and even in some of the
larger towns throughout the South,
cannot be convinced that habitually
to carry pistol-unless upon oc-
casions where one is really needed
is foolish thing to do, they can at
least be convinced that it is an eX-
penseive habit. The laws against
carrying concealed weapons are good
enough-all that is needed is their
general enforcement by the proper
authorities.

USEFUL PLUMBING HINTS.
How to Prevent Your Pipes Burst
ing in Cold Weather.

For the benefit of those whose
water pipes froze during the last
cold "spell a plumber of kindly
disposition-and most of them are,
despite the hard things said about
them-makes the following sugges-
tions:
Turn off the water at the cut
off, and if the cut off is exposed cover
it with straw or paper, but before
doing this open all the faucets so
that the water will siphon out of the
pipes. The water pipes will then be
safe.
1.-THE drain pipes must, however,
be considered, and it is not possible
or desirable to drain the traps be-
cause they prevent sewer gas. To
prevent them from freezing make a
strong solution of salt and water
do not be afraid to make too much
and poor it into the basins and tub
until the plain water has been driv-
en- out. The salt mixtures will be
slow to freeze"
Observance of these rules will
save plumbers bills and the tempers
of the water consumers, to say moth
ing of the trouble to housekeepers
it will prevent by keeping the wa
ter pipes from blowing up. This will
be better than blessing out the oblig-
ing and har worked plumbers.

Opportunity of the Cotton Farmer.


voluntary Servitude" is how
Sully describes the condition of the
cotton farmer Of the South. Cot
ton is king" he says, "but his
throne is in England" The South
erner who submits himself and his
family to grinding toll and receives
in return a pittance for his staple,
is portrayed as the slave to the spin
ners and consumers of civilization,
the humble and i'll paid servant Of
the Jap. and even the Fiji islander.
Sully makes these assertions in
current issues of the Cosmopolitan
Magazine. His articles are written
with dynamic power and unprece-
dented charm. They comprise the
most forceful, direct and original
presentation of the voluntary impo-
tence of the cotton farmer ever pub
lished. Sully, it will be remembered,
boosted cotton to II cents a pound,
the high-Water mark since the civil
war. He has demonstrated the right
to talk about every phase of the cot
ton game, especially the commercial
and international phase.
He is convinced that the man who
is grateful to receive 10 cents a
pound for his product, should re-
ceive, is logically entitled, to much
more than that He believes q high
er and uniform price can be at
tained by perfectly practical meth
DDS. There isn't an academic or a
theoretical idea in his statements.
Sully isn't doctrinaire. His ar
ticles bristle with epigrams that are
self-ev;dently truthful. Romance,
too, backed by affidavits, abounds.
He shows that the United States
has, in the fleecy staple, power
that can stop world wars and para
lyze world commerce, or make both.
He shows that, developed and utilized
properly, all civilization could be
and will be dominated by the South
GIH SIdplS. I1S Jul
international balance of trade, and
shows it is exports of raw cotton
that makes it possible. The day that
America makes up its mind to manu-
facture all it's cotton, that day will
she rule humanity.
For while substitutes may be found
for other imperative commodities,
while other daily necessities may be
produced elsewhere, the South's
monopoly Of the one world indispen-
sable is established beyond peradven-
ture. The Farmers Union has long
realized the logic of Sully's reas-
oning. The latest chapter in his
tory shows it has entered upon the
home stretch, the, end of which
means independence for the South,
imperial domination for the South,
world comprising rule for America.

s'New Land of Promise.

Day by day it is becoming more
clear that the trust magnates knew
what they were doing when they
threw the weight Of their powerful
influence on the Republican side.
Mr.. Flagler, one of the founders Of

of the steel trust, says Of Mr.. Tart:
Now a wiser man in law and
administration than Mr. Roosevelt,

House. He can be caleld the pro-
duct and producer of the best in
American life. He has given con-
fidence to us all and will lead us to
naw lands of promise"
What will the Roosevelt Repub-
licans think Of this praise of the
president-elect at the expense of the
president? asks the Commoner.
And what will the anti-laonopoly
Republican think Of this new promis-
ed land into which Mr.. Taft is eX-
pectcd to lead the trusts? The Re
nublicans worked both sides Of the

Taft will have 10 take one side or the

The value of census statistics, like
all other statistics, depends upon
their accuracy. Statistics that are
imperfectly gathered or that are
cooked or padded are worse than
useless because they are misleading.
This means that only capable and
honest enumerators should be Sc
lected. To enlist as sucn incompe-
tent and unworthy men just to
please high officials or public men is
unjust to the country and unneces-
,sarily expensive.
