HOW to prevent RiIlousness

Few persons know that most at
lacks of biliousness are due to cold
settling in the bile ducts or tubes. The
ducts become inflamed, congested and
filled with mucous. The bile is dam
med up in the liver and soon enters the
circulation and the patient soon be-
comes sallow and jaundiced. Often
tne bile flows into the stomach and so
lrritates that organ that acute indiges-
ton sets in and the patient is said to
have Cholera Morbus. Biliousness
can be prevented by using Rydale's
Liver Tablets which have specific
stimulating effect on the bile tubes.
One dose will discharge the mucous
and few doses will entirely subdue
the Inflammation and drive the cold
from the system. Rydale's Liver Tab
lets are sold on a guarantee.-Shurt-
leff's Pharmacy.

The decision of Judge Waterman in
the case of the Estabrook child is
open to criticism, but so would be any
possible disposal OF the case under
the law for the reason that the law of
fers no adequate solution o, such a
tangle. Neither party had clear
case and that left them both with
rights that could not be ignored
While a divided guardianship is far
from being an ideal arrangement, es'
pecially for the child, it was the only
solution available under the circum-
stances. The disposal of the case
will have a tendency to put both par
ties on their best behavior for it is so
left that the case can be reopened on
petition of either party If there is any
abnse of privilege.

contrary, they are a positive detri-
ment and disadvantage as they are
not honest enough to treat a public
question fairly and sink private per-
quisite in the general good. There
fore. they are unsafe guides, wilfuly
blind leading the unseeing. Naturally
they do not represent the best
thought and progress of the public
mind, but they have a very positive
and irritating influence upon legisla-
ton.
Four years ago last fall, Represen-
tatiye McCuen of Vergennes introduce
ed a bill designed to place innkeep-
ers' licenses on the same foundation
as druggists licenses, dependent, that
is, upon a freenolders and the action
of the selectmen. He was hooted
from one end of the state to the other
as the man who wanted the state
highways lined with road-houses."
And able newspaper openly advocat-
ing a string of summer hotels from
one side of the state to the other
Sucn a string of hostelries could not
exist without an innkeeper's license.
An inn keepers license must be bas-
ed substantially on the McCuen pro-
position.
Last fall Senator Donoway of Ad-
olson county introduced a very con
sentative and carefully framed bill,
seeking to permit bona-fide keepers
of legitimate hotels to secure licenses
to supply their guests with wines and
| liquors, the casual customer and the
local drunkard being carefully exclud
ed This bill passed the Senate by a
good majority but was nooted out of
the House by few of the more choice
bigots of that body, who made a tire
mendOus hue and cry about the evil
deeds of the hotel men and the fright
| full abuses that would certainly follow
liberalizing of the law dealing with
hotel licenses.
The right of an innkeeper to sell
| food and drink to his guests is more
or less inherent, and the Herald took
occasion when the bill was under dis
! cussion, to say that it would perhaps
be an entirely safe move. 1t is GER
tainly true that we shall not succeed
in getting capital interested in Yer
mont hotels as long as the liquor law,
its bearings and applications, is the
constant target of the prohibition
crank and the professional club-throw-
er. We shall never be a great sum-
mer resort state until we settle down
to a definite policy regarding liquor
laws and probably not until we are
willing to trust an experienced vic
tualler to supply his guests with ,he
sort of food and drink that they de-
sire.

init summer hotels to purvey liquors

might well take our choice and tenta-
lively shape legislation thereon with

progress that promises well.-Rutland

Vermont Summer Hotels

A recent item in state newspaper
reprinted very generally about Yer
mont calls for string of summed
hotels" throughout Vermont. This is
very pretty publicity and will no
doubt result in a large army of sum
mer hotel men invading Vermont ard
pitching their construction tents on
every slope. 1t is cry that is more
or less familiar and generally eman
ates from some one who knows moth
ing whatever about the hotel business
Running summer hotel in this
state is whole mans job. No one
can be asked to accept tne risks, TAX
the trouble and expend the time and
money in short season of summer
inn-keeping. simply for the sublime
pleasure of breathing Vermont air and
accommodating energy from the whole
some fare that is characteristic of the
states larder. 1t takes money, a lot
of money, and a large revenue before
the summer hotel-keeper sees a dollas
of profit. In fact, there are excellent
summer hotels, magnificently situated
and thoroughly equipped that only .
little more than pay the interest on
their mortgages, their owners and
managers seldom touching dollar of
profit.
Thus, the pleasing plant for the
string of summer hotels in Vermont
settles down to very prosaic and I'm
feeling piece of business. low can
they be made to pay?
