rheumatism Yields Quickly

You can't prevent an attack of Rheu-

it almost Immediately. Sloan's Liniment
gently applied to the sore joint or muscle
penetrates in a few minutes to the in
famed spot that causes the pain. 1t
soothes the hot, tender, swoolen feeling,
and in "A very short time brings a relief
that is almost unbelievable until you
experience it. Get a bottle of Sloan's

PHILIP B. STEWART.

AS speaker of the House of Repre-
sentatives in Colorado, Mr.. Philip b.
Stewart, son of Ex-Governor John w.
Stewart, is making a record which
delights his old-time Middlebury friends.
An echo of the strenuous leadership Of
Mr.. Stewart appeared in a recent num-
Der of the Grand Junction (Colo.)
Daily News:-
There is one thing the people of
this State should not overlook, and that
is the fact that Philip B. Stewart and
the House of Representatives had the
nerve to go against the Denver Post.
For years the Denver Post has brow
beat and cajoled every officer in the
capitol or in the city of Denver.
"Those who would not sign contracts
to buy coal from its mines or name its
appointees were brought under its whip
lash and either scared or whipped into
line or forever banished from public life
in that city. When the present House
of Representatives met there came up
from Colorado Springs three men,
Phil Stewart, L. A. Puffer and George
Taylor, not one of whom had one iota of
yellow in their entire system. When
the Post began its TRADE against the
House over the Rowland matter in an
effort to gain a little ~notoriety for itself
and the discredited Ben Lindsey. the
members of the House looked to these
three men for information as to what
to do. When the representative of the
Post made the statement that the Post
would get the individual members of
the Investigating committee, it took
Phil Stewart just four minutes to get
an unanimous vote excluding that rep
resentative, and when the Post came
out that afternoon with an abusive edi-
torial calling them tribetakers, it took
Just thirty minutes to hold a caucus of
both the Democrats and Republicans
and exclude all representatives of the
Post.
LAS a rule we favor newspapers in a
fight like this. but in this case we favor
the members of the House. They did
exactly right. They showed that they
were OF afraid of anything that might
be said by that paper. They proved
that they were the nerviest bunch of
fellows, both Democrats and Repub.
licans alike, that have been in the capt.
tol in many a day. The particularly
pleasing feature about it is the fact
that Speaker Stewart didn't shift
the responsibility, neither did Repre-
sentative Fincher.
"They knew the manner of men they
were dealing with. They must have
known that their lives have been clear
and square or they would not have
dared to take the lead in calling down
the Post. We suppose all of the vitrol
of all of the ages will be hurled against
them. However, we believe the senti-
ment of the State respects nerve,
whether in the face of a gun or in the
face of a character assassin. There are
ninety-nine members in the House who
face the latter named instrument of
d struction, yet in doing so they have
raised themselves in the estimation of
the people of this State far beyond any
previous act of the present assembly"

1 dlIH HNIUldA tHNH year the
minds of millions of Chris
W tians the world over are occu-
pied with Thoughts of IA scene
in Jerusalem.
On the eastern spur of the Mount Of
Olives lies tie little town of Bethany,
a few %furlongS away from Jerusalem.
On the mcinorable morning of his en-
trance into the city Jesus secured near
Bethany the donkey upon which he
made his memorable journey to Jeru-
salem. The occasion was the feast Of
the Passover, and pilgrims from Cali
lee and eastern Judea, the localities in
which his ministry had been perform
ed. accompanied him upon the journey.
As they beheld him riding ON an ass
(the royal beast in the days of David
the hopes of the multitude were sud
denly revived. Quickly the news of
his coming spread through the long
lines Of pilgrims. Those ahead tore
palm branches from the trees by the
wayside, while others spread their gar
ments and cloaks along the way on
which he was to pass, while they all
joined in a triumphant song:
Hosanna to the son of David!
Blessed is he who cometh in the name OF
the Lord,
Hosanna in the highest.
Slowly the procession came around
the southern end of the Mount Of
Olives, with the gorge of the Kedron
to the south, until the wonderful city
of Jerusalem burst into view. Then,
descending into the valley, Jesus en-
tered the city through this gate in the
midst Of a cheering multitude of peO-
pie, who waved their palm branches
before him. Just as the sun was set
ting behind the hills he found his way
to the temple. lie sought not Il wait
ing throne, but n quiet place for wor-
ship. Then in the hush Of the even
ing, refusing to give any encourage
ment to the selfish material hopes OF
the %populace, he quietly returned to
his humble home in bethany.
The gate, as we see it today, Is en-
tirely sealed. Many hundred years
after Christ mad passed through it the
city fell into the hands of the Turks,
and 1t was their belief and fear that
our Lord Jesus was about To return
and re-enter the city through this
gate. 1t was not their will that he do
this, and they believed that by sealing
It up in this manner his coming would
be prevented, and so it remains to this
day, the Sealed Golden gate, the most
remarkable and interesting Biblical
landmark in the world.

Winter is on my head, but
eternal spring is in my heart.
There I breathe at this hour

DE MORTUIS Mill N1SI BONUMS

The long discussion on education in
Vermont has come to a close. The
legislature has registered the results of
investigation and debate in statute law.
1t is time to take accOunt of what has
been done, with as little prejudice as
possible, to note what principles appear
to have been settled and to mark the
lessons which have been learned for
future guidance. No two persons would
define the results in the same way, but
the following may be submitted.
1t has been demonstrated that the chief
educational interest of Vermont is in
the elementary schools, particularly in
the rural schools:
That there is a generous, patriotic
conviction that the more prosperous
communities should assist this less able,
to the end that all Vermont children
should have as nearly equal advantages
as psssible
That the town system of schools must
not be impaired and that local respon-
sibility must be preserved:
That every town nd village must be
left free as to Whether it will sustain a
high school:
That Vermont will remain cautiously
progressive as to changes in the direc-
ton of vocational education.
The legislature of 1915 has to it's
credit
The simplifcation of the school law
and its reduction in compass, with repeal
of many obsolete and cumbersome pro-
visions:
A promising experiment for pro-
Viding better teachers for rural
schools through subsidies for trained
teachers:
Statewide superintendent of all
schools by State officers, general as
we'll as local, with provision for regular
and frequent reports:
4 method whereby any district or
locality can secure a school zeal by if
it has a reasonable number of pupils:
An increase of both permanent and
annual State school funds for the equal
izing of school advantages.
The educational institutions of the
State come out of the two year agita-
ton about where they were financially,
but established on "a firmer basis. There
is no State University, but Vermont
recognizes three higher institutions and
contributes to their support. The APP
preparations to Middlebury and Norwich
made two years ago are now permanent.
The Medical College of the University
of Vermont receives a little more and
the other departments of that institu-
ton a little less.
The normal schools at Castleton and
Johnson are continued, and between
them receive $4,000 a year more than
ever before.
The State has acquired a new agri-
cultural school with a valuable and ex-
pensive plant.
Honors of the conflict for there is no
denying that there has been a real
confict-are sufficient for general dis
tribution. The Carnegie Foundation gave

Stsc, the boy who wouldn't tell on his
kid brother, should be dead and bu-
RED, another victim of the century,
old tragedy Of a child and firearms.
Yet he is not even unconscious, he
hasno fever and is just as bright and
cheerful as any boy who is receiving
all the attention in the world would
be!

that the boy will recover. But he

who is not only alive after several
days, but beyond slight drowsiness
shows no i'll effects of the expert

It was when Stephen wanted to
sleep and wouldn't get up on the
morning of the third day to go to
school that the physician was called.
He couldn't find the slightest thing
the matter with the boy. Little AL,
aged Z, the cause of it all, was play
ing cheerfully alongside his bed, and
the two boys were laughing and talk
ing.
Then the doctor happened to run
his hand over the elder lads head
and found it. covered with blood, His
exclamation brought sobs from Al
bert and then Stephen started to cry,
too. Then he told his story.
The boys were alone in the house
and Albert got his fathers revolver
and held it against Stephens head
and pulled the trigger. Stephen was
knocked over, but soon got to his
feet and stayed the blood with towels.
Then they hid the towels and .swore
to say nothing about it, figuring a
spanking would result.
