NEED AT LEAST $50 BEDS.
An Appeal To The People To Open
Their Homes To The Teachers.


To the People of St. Johnsbury:
AS chairman OF the Hospitality
Committee for the entertainment or
teachers at their convention here in
October, viii you permit me to say
that it is with no small sense OF the
respOnsIbihty OF this task that [ ap-
peal to the people of this town TO
help put this undertaking through.
This is not a i've o'clock tea nor
even a kitchen shower, but more in
the nature of a "'T6 Boston Tea
Party" and we shall need the larg-
est measure Of cooperation from the
townspeople' in getting accommoda-
Ions for some 1900 people. This
means at least 500 beds to lodge
these visitors.
You must know that our people
have never been in the habit of
opening their. houses to entertain a
large crowd Of visitors; therefore
this fact makes it seem the more
difficult to get them aroused to the
need of doing it; but we have simply
got to do it and halfway measures
won't do. Many are saying II can
be done but you know it can be done,
at a sacrifice perhaps Of our per-
sOnal convenience. Now the ques-
ton is, are you Wiling 10 Hdhe q
sacrifice if need be and help to give
these visitors a royal welcome and
properly care for them, making this
ne "Red-letter Week of the year
and at the same time give St. Johns
bury the best advertising possible.
III may seem early to approach this
question but if you have a big job
on your hands you can't begin too
soon to work on it,. We need the
help of the farmers, especially those
who have automobiles. The visitors
will pay for their entertainment.
Let's get together on this matter
and give our host of visitors the best
time of their lives, so they will go
home believing that st. Johnsbury is
the best town in Vermont. We know
it is; just help them to know it also,

tonic, vinol. In the most natural man
ner Vinol tones up the digestive org
ans, promotes a charity appetite, en-
riches the blood, and as a specific for

HARLEM COPS STARTLED BY THE
APPEARANCE OF A HUMAN HAY
NOW DODGING ABOUT THE CITY
STREETS

New oYrk, Jan 1.-TWO policemen
up in far Harlem were startled last
night to see a man of enormous size,
easing along in the shadows at a rate
of speed out of all proportions to his
bulk. Following the weIl-known po-
lice rule that says when in doubt,
pinch, they arrested the prodigy
Dragging him to an arc light the
policemen began to investigate. They
found that the man had a small hay
stack concealed about his person This,
augmented by upholstery of old news
papers, was to blame for the suspects
queer appearance
'Whata y mean walking about the
streets of a great city in haymow?"
demanded one of the cops
Its like this" explained the prison.
er; I'm a burglar and | had mapped
out job en- the tenth floor of an apart
ment house. See? Well, l says to my
self, if have to jump out of the win
dow it'll be an awful bump when l hit
the asphalt, so l stuffed up like this to
make s1ft landing"
After burrowing around in the hay
the policemen corroborated the man S
statement by dragging forth about 5000
worth of jewelry which he admitted
stealing
He told them that his name was VIII
liam English, and that he had no home.
The policemen soothed English with
the comforting statement that he would
not feel this lack for some time to
come.

II Your Back Hurts or Bladder BOthers
You Drink Lots of Water.

When your kidneys hurt and your
back feels sore don't get scared and
proceed to lead your stomach with q
lot of drugs that excite the kidneys
and irritate the entire urinary tract.
Keep your kidneys clean like you
keep your bowels clean, by flushing
them with a mild, harmless salts which
removes the body's urinous waste and
stimulates them to their normal activ-
ity The function of the kidneys is to
filter the blood. In "a hours they
strain from it 500 grains of acid and
waste. so we can readily understand
the vital Importance of keeping the
kidneys active
Drink lots of water-you can't drink
too much; also get from any pharma
cist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take a tablespoonful in glass of wa
ter before breakfast each morning for
q few days and your kidneys will act
fine. This famous salts is made from
the acid of grapes and lemon juic :,
combined with lithia, and has been us
ed for generations to clean and slim
ulate clogged kidneys; also to neutral
ize the acide in urine so it no longer
is a source of irritation, thus ending
bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
jure; makes a delightful effervescent
Whitewater drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep the r
kidneys clean and active Try this
also keep up the water drinking and no
doubt you will wonder what became
of your kidney trouble and backache

SOCIETY
WOMEN QUIT
BRIDGE FOR POKER

Atlanta, Jan. 15.-Poker playing for
small stakes has become such a pop
ular pastime among women in Atlanta,
according to society gossip, that it is
threatening to GUST bridge in many ex-
elusive circles.
Many of the parties still go by the
name of bridge" it is said, but in
stead of playing auction for silk stock
ings and other prizes or for a penny-a-
point the ladies borrow their hus-
bands or brothers poker chips and
play penny ante and nickel limit.
They say that they have the preach
ers' own words for il that poker play
ing is no more gambling and no wicil
eder than playing whist for prizes
that both are morally on exactly the
same basis, and that they prefer poker
because it is a more sociable game.
Atlanta women do not agree with
Dr. Beckwith the eminent Chicago
scientist, who declares that poker
playing is injurious to womens ner
vous systems. Dr. Beckwith says that
disappointment from poor hands floods
their systems with a sort of nervous
poison, but does not explain why the
same would not be equally true of a
poor hand at auction bridge.
