The time is drawing near for the
election of town officers for the com
ing year but little has been said so
far in Bennington on the subject. 1t
is taken for granted that the old
board of selectmen will accept an
other election and if they will there
is not likely to be any serious OPP
position This board has done so
well for the town in keeping down ex-
penses and paying up the town debt
that all citizens who put the welfare
of the town above partisan feeling
and local politics want them to con-
tinue in Office. There is one mat
ter, however of Importance that is to
be considered at the coming town
meeting which is whether the town
tax rate shall be reduced or whether
sum shall be carried annually to a
sinking fund to retire the old rail
road bonds when they become due
Some towns in the state have made
a signal success through creating a
sinking fund to retire Indebtedness
when it becomes due rather than
have the burden fall heavily perhaps
at time when other expenses are
heavy and when the taxpayers can
least afford to meet it, The matter
is one for the voters to consider and
be prepared to settle when the Ques-
don comes up in town meeting.

A Tainted Breath
Highly DiSagreeable
A Quick and Permanent Relief for This
Trouble at q, Small Expense.

There are many thousands of people
who are the unfortunate possessors of
offensive and obnoxious breath, which
has its origin in chronic nasal and
throat catarrh, or an unhealthy condi-
ton of the stomach, or decay of the
teeth, and when these persons realize
they arc the victims of such an un-
desirable possession, they frequently
feel constrained to remain of TO them
selves the greater part of the time, be
cause they understand only too well
how disagrecablc il must be TO others
with whom they come in contact.
For it is an undeniablc fact that
people VIII comment on, and criticise
The person whose breath Is foul and
offensive, Very frequently we hear the
comment, 'So-and-So Is Il most agree"
able companion; an interesting taltor,
with a large fund Of information; is
well posted on world history and the
biographies of many celebrities; can
talk huently on current topics; is an
accomplished musician. and llterateur,
and would be a most desirable addi-
ton TO any social gathering, except for
the deplorablc fact that his or her
breath is so extremely offensive, that
persons of refinement, good breeding
md delicate Sensibilitics do not care
10 come into contact with them.
And Very naturally, too, for an OBJ
uoXiouS breath taintS the very atmos
phere, and affects the persons surround
ing Thc affected one IN a way which is
positively nauSeating.
There is no longer any excuse for a
person, however foul and offensive their
breath may be, of inflicting It's obnox-
iousuess upon the delicate nostrils and
olfactory nerves Of others.
Charcoal, the great absorbent, is the
ideal remedy for conditions described
herein, and in STUART'S CHARCOAL
LOZENGES we have tho very best
form in which charcoal NAV be taken.
These little loZcngcs absorb one hun

The automobile industry has en-

dictionaries published only few years
ago, but which are to-day household
words. With one Of the most common,
however, a certain Massachusetts post
master is apparently unfamiliar.
An enthusiastic automobilist who
lives in Philadelphia had it in mind to
tour through southern New England,
and wished to make stay of several
days in one Of the most interesting of
the old towns along the Massachusetts,
coast. He was not certain that the
town contained accommodations for
storing his car, and accordingly he
wrote the postmaster to ask whether
there were any garages there In a
few days he received this reply:
Dear Sir: Your favor Of the 18th

to say that no person Of that name gets
