Supt. Ferguson of the Vermont Anti
Saloon League is hardly fair in charging
that the press of the state is largely
and openly in league with liquor or
largely silent about it." The press of the
state, so far as we know, has always
given literally of its space for anything
pertaining to temperance and the good
of the League. We know of no paper
that has refused to publish communi.
cations of interest to the temperance
cause in the state. Still, it is true, as the
Brattleboro Phoenix says, that they
support the local option law" Yet,
notwithstanding this, they can be relied
upon, as a rule, to give every reasonable
aid to the cause of temperance. Mr..
Ferguson should not class the whole
state press with what possibly few,
very few, papers do.

The mayoralty contest in Montpelier
seems to have narrowed down to Smith
S. Ballard, the well-known insurance
agent and Benjamin Gates, a popular
young lawyer. Either would make an
excellent mayor for the Capital City,
but as "Smith" married a Lamoille
County girl it looks to us as if her level
headedness dove-taled with "Smith's ;"
executive ability would be about the
right kind of a combination for the chief
executive of that place to have, and so
we believe that Montpelier will make no
mistake in picking the insurance man.

LIQUID CURES ECZEMA
WHERE SALVES FAIL

In regard to skin diseases, medical
authorities are now agreed on this:
Don't imprison the disease germs in
your skin by the use of greasy salves,
and thus encourage them to multiply.
A true cure of all eczematous dis
eases can be brought about only by
using the healing agents in the form
OF a liquid.
WASH THE GERMS OUT
A simple wash: A compound of Oil
of Wintergreen. Thymel, and other in
gradients as combined in the D. D.
D. Prescription. This penetrates to
the disease germs and destroys them,
then soothes and heals the skin as
nothing else has ever done.
A 20 cent trial bottle will start the
cure, and give you instant relief.
