shows that the value of the imports

than fifty per cent. and will be used
as an argument against the merger

IS BARTON SATISFIED?
The Evidence Is Convincing. Tn
Tes onu Omen IN Investigation

The Evidence Is Convincing. The
Testimony Open to Investigation.
Before a stat ement can be accepted
here, it must be supported by local
testimony-by the evidence of some
one residing in Barton. Statements
from unknown people in remote
places may be true, but we cannot
prove them. Here is a statement by
a Barton residents:
II. A. Folsom, meat market, Glover
St., Barton, VT. says: IT was subject
to attacks of backache and lameness
through my loins. My kidneys did
not do their work as they should.
Doan's Kidney Pills brought me
relief and consequently, l do not
hesitate to recommend Them"
The above statement must carry
conviction to the mind of every read
er. Don't simply ask for kidney
remedy-ask distinctly for Doan's
Kidney Pills, the same that Mr..
Folsom had-the remedy backed by
home testimony. SOC, all stores

A Wonderful Savings Bank
Growth.

On June goth the Hyde Park Saw
ings Bank passed the two and one
half million dollar mark in deposits.
On June goth, 1907, six years
ago, its deposits were only SS44,
1884.
In other words, the Hyde Park
Savings Bank has practically null
tiplied its deposits by three in the
short space of six years.
This means an average gain in
deposits of over nine hundred
dollars a day for every business
day in the entire six years.
It means that the deposits ex-
ceeded the Withdrawals by an
average of more than $4,000 per
year for the entire six years.
The deposits exceeded the with
drawals for the year ending June
80, 1913, by s2oS,34S.3o.
These figures are interesting
from two points of view, viz
First, they indicate the general
prosperity of our State, and Sec
ond, they indicate that the people
of Vermont have come to place
great confidence in the business
sagacity and conservatism of the
managers of the Hyde Park Bank.

HOW TO ANCHOR PORCH
TABLE COVERS.

Whoever may be blessed with
an airy porch will be glad to
know that she may keep the ia
BILE covers in place by weighing
them.
Sew in each corner a piece Of
muslin about an inch square,
making it like a little pocket,
open at one end. Slip into each
> pocket metal weight about the
size of a quarter, such as tailors
: use for weighing coats. When
. the cover needs washing it will
: be easy 20 remove the weights.
The comfort Of finding the COW
ers on the tables and not on the
. porch floor will be the reward
you will reap for the little trou-
: BILE you have taken.

How to Clean White Feathers.

White feathers of any kind, especial
ly white willow plumes, can be cleaned
at home to look like new at a very
small cost.
Take one quart of gasoline and
cents worth of plaster Of paris and
mix together to the consistency Of
whipped cream. Dip the feathers in
this mixture several times and squeeze
and pat them for few minutes. Then
hang up in the open air to dry thor
oughly and until all the gasoline has
evaporated. Remember never to use
gasoline in a room with light or fire.
1t is very explosive.

POLO Team TO
LOSE BALDWIN

There is gloom among the local fol-
lowers of polo, for word has come
from the Coast that the All-Hawaii
team is "up against it."
Mrs. F. F. Baldwin cables that
Frank Baldwin will be laid up for at
least two weeks with the strained leg
tendon which he sustained in last
Saturdays game, and which proved
more serious than was at first suppos-
ed. This leaves the team seriously
crippled, for Baldwin's long drives
and hard riding have been feature
of all the games played by the team
on its present trip, and he was large
ly relied on to pull out final victory
for the islanders. With proper atten-
tion, and complete rest, it is thought
that Frank Baldwin will be able to
play in the big tournament at San
Mateo, when the Hawaiians expect to
meet the crack San Mateo Slashers.
He will necessarily be out of practice,
even if able to play then, and the
team weakened accordingly. .@-
Until Baldwin gets in the saddle
again the team will undoubtedly play
the combination that won the inter
island championship for Oahu last
summer Sam Baldwin will go in at
No. 1, and Arthur Rice will shift from
No. to back. leaving the Castle-Dil-
lingham combination at 2 and g. While
this team is not so strong as the ALL
Hawaii four, still it has played to-
gether considerably, and should give
good account of itself. ~.
Baldwin's accident shows the need
of a first-cIass back field substitute.
Had David Fleming gone along with
the team, he could have stepped right
into Frank Baldwin's position, and the
team would have suffered little if any
by the change On long polo cam
pafgn such as is being made by the ISL
anders, six men are none too many,
and it's a certainty that all six men
would get plenty of chances to take
part in competitions. Fleming was
prevented by business interests from
accompanying the team.
