Many Vermonters are not familiar
with the valuable and interesting col
lections in their own State House in
this city, and the Journal has compiled
a list of some of the most important
objects of interest in and about the
I Capitol that are worthy of the atten-
ton of visitors and of particular in
terest to the pupils of Vermont
schools.
Building the State House.
On January 6, 1867, the second State
House erected in Montpelier was ruin
ed by. fire. On February IS, 1857 a
special session of the Legislature au-
thorized the rebuilding of the struc-
ture. The architects were T. W. Sill
loway and J. R. Richards of Boston
and the building was completed and
ready for occupancy at the opening
of the session of the Legislature in
1859.
The Capitol consists of a central
building and two wings. In front OF
the central building is Doric portico
72 feet, inches long and Is feet deep
The height of the portico to the apex
is so feet. The side walls of the CEN
trail building are each 95 feet, 8 inches
long and the main structure is sur
mounted by a cupola and dome Sc
feet, inches in height and "A feet
in diameter at the base. 1t is sur.
mounted by a statue of Ceres, exc
cuted by Larkin G. Mead, Jr. The
State House wings are each So feet
long in front by so feet, s inches al
the ends, the height being AZ feet,

In 1886 an addition was erected fol
the use of the Supreme Court and the
State Library. 1t is IA feet long, As
feet wide and 271a feet high. L. D
Willcutt, of Boston, was the architect
Objects of Interest.
The statue of Ethan Allen, the frs
hero of the American Revolution an(
leader of the Green Mountain Boys
stands on the portico at the left of the
entrance of the State House, and was
executed by Larkin G. Mead, Jr, il
1861, at cost of $4,000, authorized b!
the Legislature. At the right en-
trance, on the portico, stand two brass
field guns, captured from the Hessian
at the battle of Bennington, August 16
1777.
On the first terrace, stand two mas

The highest medical authority

Sir James Crichton Browne, LL.D.-F.R.S.
of London,

Quaker Oats

duces a big-boned, well-devel-
oped, mentally energetic race.
His experiments prove that
good oatmeal such as Quaker
Oats not only furnishes the best
food for the human being, but
eating it strengthens and en-
larges the thyroid gland-this
gland is intimately connected
with the nourishing processes
of the body.
In conclusion he says
1t seems probable therefore
that the bulk and brawniness Of
the Northerners (meaning the
SCOTCH has been in some
measure due to the stimulation
of the thyroid gland by oatmeal

The Scotch eat Quaker Oats
because it is the best of all oat-
meals.

tinue in Business as Result of Fall
ure Of Indictments to Specify Dates
of Alleged Violations of Law.
Rutland, Nov. 5.-Owing to the fail
ure of the indictments to specify the
offenses, it seems likely that the Rut-
land druggists who recently were fin
ed of a violation of the liquor law,
will continue in business and as Ii
censees exactly as before. Such is the
opinion of William B. Warner, of
Vergennes, a member of the State
Board of Pharmacy, who was in this
city today to take action on the cases.
Mr. Warner finds that the indictments
are now made out in the form which
has prevailed for fifty years, sort
of blanket indictment for selling liq-
uor illegally, whereas the offenses of
the recently fined druggists were spec
ific violations of the conditions of their
license the statutes governing their
cases containing specific penalties.
Mr.. Warner finds that the indict-
ments do not specify the place of
business, the date, or make any ref
erence to a violation of the fifth class
license, so that there appears to be
nothing on which to base complaint
to the State Board.
1t would be entirely possible for

lions of the liquor law occurred be-
fore their fifth class licenses were ia

court records to show differently.
