RAISE TRoLLY FARE
Costs II Cents to Ride Between Mont
pelier and Barre

Montpelier. Aug. ia fare OF IL
cents went into effect today on the
Barre and Montpelier street railway,
On account of legal proceedings the
Traction company is charging only
five cents in the city limits of both
Montpelier and Barre, but as the
road runs through Berlin an extra
cent is charged for that portion OF
the ride, making IL cents for the
Journey between Montpelier and
Barre against ten cents, which was
the fare for great many years.
The initial fare when the road was
opened was five cents. For years the
suburban trains between Montpelier
and Barre on the two steam roads
charged a FIVE cent fare.

FREE METHODISTS TO
TAKE WALDEN COLLEGE

A message received this morning
from DR.. A. G.. Anderson of Salina,
trustee for the bondholders of the
Walden college property, states that
he has signed the contract which
Rev. L. G. Lewis, representing the
Orleans Seminary, Orleans, Nebras-
ka, had drawn up. This means that
Walden college is the property of
that denomination and that Nc
Pherson gets another college. The
delay was natural, both parties hay-
ing the common instinct OF driving
good bargains. The bondholders
are satisfied at being rid OF the
property and the Free Methodists
can surely congratulate themselves
on the splendid property they got
at a very low figure. -McPherson

HOW THE NEW DOG

The assessors, 81 of them, will

Are they valuabl or worthless

how many male, how many female,

PAY YOUR OWN POSTAGE
New Order Does Not Put Burden on
the Recipient

Several Kansas newspapers have
received a wrong impression regard
ing a recent order issued by Post
master General A. S. Burleson per-
tanning to unstamped letters, and
have printed statements to the eff
feet that hereafter patrons of the
United States postoffice may drop
a letter into a mail box and know
that it will be delivered to the ad-
dressee who will pay the postage
due upon delivery instead of send
ing it in advance.
The new amendment to the post
office rules and regulations is not
so liberal. 1t is merely an addition
to paragraph eleven of section No.
511 of the rule which permits UNI
stamped letters addressed to foreign
countries to be delivered and post
age collected from the addressee.
The new order merely added a line
to the paragraph specifying that
where apparent intent to avoid pay
ment of postage was shown, the let
ters would not go.
Unstamped letters addressed to-
foreign countries have for a long
time been permitted to go through
the mails but the receiver of the
letter is required to pay double the
amount Of postage due, when the
letter is delivered to him.

SEVERE RHEUMATIC,
PAINS DISAPPEAR
Hoods sarsaparilla WIN SurSly
Bring Relief-Don't Suffer.

Rheumatism, which perhaps causes
Tmore suffering than any other dis
ease, depends on an acid which
flows in the blood, affecting he
muscles and joints, producing IN
flammation, stiffness and pain.
This acid gets into the blood
through some defect in the digestive
processes, and remains there be-
cause the liver, kidneys and skin are
too torpid to carry il of.
Hoods Sarsaparilla, the old-time
blood tonic, is very successful in the
treatment of rheumatism. It acts
directly, with purifying effect, on
the blood, and through the blood on
the liver, kidneys and skin, which it
stimulates, and at the same time it
improves the digestion.
Don't delay treatment until you
are in worse condition. Get Hood s
and begin taking it today.
