Out on a Sympathetic Strike.

In spite of the strenuous efforts of the
Bellows Falls business men. the ma
chine employees of the International
Paper Co.'S mills struck Friday after
noon. Three hundred and fifty men
went out and ~ machines are idle. The
effects of the futile strike of three years
ago still remain and a general conference
of business men and employees was held.
AT this meeting, the men were Off
cially informed by Superintendent Bar
rett that the New York Office had adj
vised through treasurer A. n. Burbank,
that if the mills here closed through
strike action, it was very improbable
that the International company would
ever reopen them. The employees scott
ed at this but it is fact that the plant
has for several years been regarded as
their least productive and least profitable
holding. The statement of Mr.. Bur
bank is given full credence outside the
mills and is causing much uneasiness.
At the Wilder plant of the Interna.
tional Paper Co., where $50 men are en-
ployed, no strike is appreht nded. At
present only the pulp machines are run
ming, most of the men being employed
upon construction work.

in order to cooperate from the body
of the house. No sooner had Miralles,
the actor, taken his seat in the stalls
than a daring pickpocket robbed him
of his gold watch. Miralles seized the
man by his coat collar and called out
in deep bass voice:
Police. Help. Thieves!

FREE IF 1T FAILS.
Your Money 6aek ~ You are Not
Satisfied with the Medicine
We Recomme

We are 80 positive that our remedy
will permanently relieve constipation
no matter how chonic it may be, that we
offer to furnish the medicine at our ex-
pense should 1T fail to produce satisfact-
DRY results.
1t is worse than useless to attempt to
cure constipation with cathartic drugs.
Laxatives or cathartics do much harm.
They cause a reaction, irritate and weak
en- the bowels and tend to make consti-
patton more chronic. Besides, their use
becomes a habit that is dangerous.
Constipation is caused by a weakness
of the nerves and muscles of the large
intestine or defending colon. To expect
permanent relief you must therefore tone
up and strengthen these organs and re-
store them to healthier activity.
The discovery of the active principle
of our remedy involved the labor of the
worlds greatest research chemists. AS
an active agent it possesses the valuable
qualities of the best known intestinal
tones as we'll as being particularly
pleasant and prompt in it's results.
We want you to try Rexall Orderlies
on our recommendation. They are ex-
ceedingly pleasant to take, being eaten
like candy, and are ideal for children.
delicate persons and old folks, as well
as for the robust. They act directly on
the nerves and muscles of the bowels.
They apparently have neutral action
on other associate organs or glands.
They do not purge, cause excessive loose
Hess nor create any inconvenience what
ever. They may be taken at any time,
day or night. They will positively re-
ieve chronic or habitual constipation, if
not of surgical variety, and the myriads

STATE NEWS.

Major L. NJ. Grout, father of super
intendent Don ID. Grout of the state
hospital for the insane and of George G..
Grout of Waterbury, and veteran of
two wars, celebrated his eighty seventh
birthday March 8. To judge from his
appearance, however. the figures should
be reversed, to say the least. and the
numerous friends who remembered him
with letters, post cards, and personal
congratulations have good reason to hope
for many returns of the day.
1t is planned to begin work on the
new buildings for the Champlain Trans
portation Co. at Shelburne harbor the
latter part of April. The new structures
and apparatus will probably cost in the
neighborhood of $4,000. The work on
the steamer Ticonderoga is nearly COM
pleted.
E. r. Byrnes, secretary of the Mont
pelier Lodge of Elks, has received
telegram announcing the death at Jersey
City, N. j., of Prescelle, the hypnotist.
Prescelle's name in private life was
Percy Brown. He was a member of
Montpelier Lodge of Elks and his home
was in Barton where the body was taken
for interment. He was 80 years old and
had filled engagements in nearly every
large town and city in Vermont

and was manufactured by the Meneely
Bell Company of Troy, N. Y, who made

and 100 more Saturday to help bring the

about 30 cars were sent and for the fol-
lowing two weeks about 40 cars day

Friday, but the amount handled was not
important. as the ice is so thin that the
weight mounts up slowly. Work was
begun Saturday noon at Alburg with d
force of about 100 men.
Joseph Lyon was taken to Burlington
Friday from Fort Ethan Allen by Deputy
United States Marshall Reeves and placed
in jail, charged with selling LIQUOR on
government reservation. He was ar
rested on warrant made out by United
States Commissioner Was. Lyon was
discovered peddling liquor at the post
and was placed in the guard house there.
Several quarts of liquor were found on
his person and 1t was stated that he was
doing rushing business. Lyon is an ex
soldier and resided in Winooski.
A faint "yeep'' was heard by C. A.
Barber in Burlington Friday morning as
he was passing the Methodist church
lawn. He stopped and listened. 1t WAS
a very still and clear morning and he
heard the sound repeatedly. 1t seemed
to come from the grass and after few
minutes search he disentangled large,
light green grasshopper from a small
piece of ice to which it had evidently
been frozen over night. Mr.. Barber took
the grasshopper to his store, fed it some
honey and lettuce leaves and it now sits
complacently in an empty fig jar in one
of the windows and wiggles its antennae
at the passersby. Anyone who doesn't
believe that spring is here can look at the
insect and watch it eat

Fear Small Pox Contaqion.

The people of East Georgia are thor.
oughly frightened by a case of small
pox that has developed in their midst.
The victim is Charles Metcalf, mail
clerk on the Boston-St. Adams run. Mr.
Metcalf complained of not feeling well
the last three days he made his run,
and last week was at home in Georgia.
Sunday four physicians in consultation,
one of whom was E. II. Buttles of the
State laboratory, decided that his case
was small pox. Fourpersons with whom
he is known to have come in contact,
have been locked up and vaccinated,
while the health officers have the opin-
ion that the man has caused wide spread
infection personally or through the hand
ling of mail.

An Old Legend That Tells of the ORR

Lacemaking is by no means so old
an industry as most persons suppose.
There is no proof that it existed pre-
vious to the fifteenth century. and the
oldest known painting in which 1t APP

academy at Venice painted by Caspac-
clio. who died about 1923. The legend
concerning the origin of the art is as
follows:
A young fisherman of the Adriatic
was betrothed to young and beauti-
full girl of one of the isles Of the Ia
COON. Industrious as she was beauti-
full, the girl made new net for her
lover, who took 1t with him on board
his boat. The first time he cast it into
the sea he dragged therefrom an exqui.

fastened to present to his f1ancee; but.

pressed into the service of the Vene.

departure Of her lover and contem-
plated his last gift to her. While alb

Gerry Of the wrack grass she began to
twist and plat the threads weighted
with small beads which hung around
her net. Little by little she wrought
an imitation of the petri1cation, and
thus was created the bobbin lace.

Do farmers eat the proper
sort OF food?

The farmer of today buys a much
larger proportion of the food that goes
on the table than he did ten years age.
It's a good thing that this is so because
he. has a great variety to select from.
He should, however, use great care
in selecting for the best results in
health and strength.
The widespread tendency in the city
70 increase the amount of Quaker Oats
eaten is due very largely to the recent
demonstrations by scientific men that
the Quaker Oats fed man is the man
with greatest physical endurance and
greatest mental vigor.
Farmers should give this subject
careful thought and should increase
the quantity of Quaker Oats eaten by
themselves, their children and the
farm hands.
The regular size 10c package is not
as convenient for the farmer as the
large size family package at Csc. 81

Paul Revere Cast the Bell.

An investigation which followed the
receipt of letter by l.. c. Grant, of
Burlington, from Arthur II. Nichols, of
Boston has brought out the fact that the

the statement that in the year 1916 bell
was sold to the city of Burlington. The
original bill of sale was found among the
church achives from which it is learned
that the bell was made for the church
October 10, 1916, at cost of As cents
