Health Is Worth Saving, and Some Bar
ton People Know How
to Save 1t.

Many Barton people take their lives
in their hands by neglecting the kid
neys when they know these organs
need help. Sick kidneys are respon'
sible for large amount Of suffering
and i'll, health but there is no need to
suffer nor to remain in danger when
all diseases and aches and pains due to
weak kidneys can be quickly and per-
manently cured by the use of Doan's
Kidney Pills. Here is a Barton citi-
zen's recommendation.
Mrs. E. @. Wilkie, High st. Barton.

back bothered me for a long time
and had other symptoms of disor-
dered kidneys. I knew of many peo-
pie who had been cured of kidney
trouble by Doan's Kidney Pills and
deciding to give them trial, pro-
cured supply at Barron's Pharmacy.
Tue contents of three boxes made
such change for the better in my
condition that I did not consider it
necessary to continue their use.
Doan's Kidney Pills have my highest
endorsement"

The New England Homestead in it's
last issue contains a long letter to
Gov. Mead and the Vermont legisla-
ture on Vermont. The letter is
headed "What is the matter with
Vermont" The answer is "Dry
Rot! The state has made but
slight progress for so years. Yet the
people are living on a gold mine that
they don't even work The old ways
have proven failure. Now comes a
new era. Wake up, Vermonters.
Utilize your undeveloped resources
rebuild the old commonwealth. Make
it hive of industry. humming with
the new agriculture, the new educa
ton, the new church, the new life.
Instead Of full graveyards and empty
houses, encourage youth to marry and
breed. Attract people and capita
from abroad" The Monitor believes
there is so much good in this letter
that it hopes to reproduce it in fu
in the near future.

A Safe Savings Bank.

There is every reason to believe
that the savings banks of Vermont
are all safe. sound and strong. That
the public so believe is evidenced by
the recent report of the Inspector of
Banks showing almost unprecendent-
ed gains in deposits during the past
year. If the confidence in the safety
of Vermont savings banks however,
is to be measured by the growth of de-
posits, then inquest ionably the Hyde
Park savings bank holds the first
place, for its percentage of increase
in deposits during the three fiscal
years ending July l, 1910, barring
perhaps some recently established
banks, upon which Of course a percent
age basis of increase could not be
computed is more than that of any
other bank in the state.
Stated in terms that can be under
stood by all. the deposits in the Hyde
Park savings bank during the last
three years have exceeded the with
drawaIs by more than $1,000 for each
business day during the entire three
years. We know Of no parallel any
where, except in some Of the large
city banks.
The Hyde Park bank pays per cent
luISISSGs COLupOuuu6u S6ml-dI0udIly,
and deposits made before November
16 will draw interest from October l.
1t pays the taxes on all deposits up
to $4,000 and the Lamoille County
National Bank of Hyde Park, under
the same management, will accept,
upon the same terms, any sum in ex-
cess Of this two thousand dollars.
AS evidencing the safety of making
deposits by mail. it may be stated that
in more than twenty-one years of its
existence, not dollar of remittances
to the Hyde Park savings bank by
mail has ever been lost. It is entire
ly safe to make deposits either by
personal check, bank draft, postal
money order, express order or cash in
registered letter. This bank respect
fully solicits your deposits.
If any further information is de-
sired send your post-office address on
postal to either Carroll S. Page,
president, or F. NJ. Culver, treasurer,
Hyde Park, Vermont, and a prompt
reply will be Forthcoming. News and

A subscriber recently asked US if the
chief reason for our strong advocacy
of Rev. M. w. Fsrman for chaplain
of the senate was because he was
blind. The subscriber also stated
that she thought his qualifications
would be even better if he were deaf.
Now of course that is a little tough
on the senate.

STOCKS. FELL OFF WHEAT WAS WEAK
Several Factors Had Depressing Ef-
feet--Demand Decreased--Ali
y Wanted to Sell Stocks.

New York, Oct, 19.-Efforts to sell
stocks developed when no demand
existed at the higher range to which
prices had been pushed, and conces-
sions were found necessary in order
ITO execute selling orders. The arbi-
trary way in which prices were mark
I'D up just as the market closed yes
teday, followed by the withdrawal
|of demand tday, begot suspicion that
an advantageous basis for selling
stocks was all that was sought BY
yesterdays late maneuver.
The final hour today was like the
bidding up Of prices but they gave
way One factor added to the feel
ing of suspicion which awoke today
was the character of some rumors OF
deals" which came into view yester-
day, and the failure Of any authentic
cosfirmation today. The period is
not regarded propitious for grandiose
projects OF railroad combination
either from the money market or the
political standpoint.
v II is inferred, therefore, that the
desire to reduce that residue on adj.
vantageous terms, and to provide re.
sources for underwriters which must
be undertaken before long, prompted
the stirring up of the speculative ac-
tivity at this time.
The principles embraced in the de,
cision in confirming the extensive
n9wers over rates claimed by the

deemed of great Importance, and the
matter was made the ground for some
selling of stocks.
