James Whitcomb Riley last week
celebrated his siXty-second birthday
and it was made the occasion of a
touching demonstration of love and
esteem. James Whtcomb Riley will
probably never be rated as one of the
great poets of the English speaking
world, but he has inspired many a
heart with his clean and touching
humor, sentiment and philosophy.
One of his best known poems and
one that appeals to every country
bred person, is the following:
When the frost is on the punkin
And the folders in the shock
And you hear the kyouck and COB
BILE of the struttin turkey cock,
And the cacklin' of the guineas
and the cluckin of the hens
And the ROSTERS hallelooyer as he
tiptoes on the fence
Oh, it's then's the time Teller is
a feelin' at his best
With the risin' sun to greet him
from night of gracious rest
AS he leaves the house bareheaded
and goes out to feed the stock,
When the frost is on the punkin
and the folders in the shock

In several places in the country
has been inaugurated pay up day
when each and all make an earnest
effort to settle their outstanding bills.
All or nearly all men in business, and
particularly on a small scale, could
pay all that they owe If they could
collect what is owed to them. Per-
sons, who. work for wages are poor
managers and are going backwards II
they are in debt except where
the debt Is due to accident or sick
ness. A large proportion of bills re.
main unpaid for no other cause than
carelessness and habit Of putting
off duty and this class of accounts
is what keeps many struggling mef-
chant and professional man on the
rocks, for the aggregate of small ac-
counts is the big obstacle ,toosuecess
with most business men in a small
town. 1t would be a good thing to
have pay up day" in Bennington
once a year and it would. add in fur
thering the prosperity Of the town
for it is the circulation of money
that helps business, furnishes employ
ment and makes a live town. Why
not take it on for one day, at least?

and Give Reasons Why.
" Doctor: You have many pat
tents under your care at this season
of the year especially, whom You may
consider are in need of the nutriti-
Gus, healing properties OF cod liver
oil. many people cannot digest or as
simulate the ordinary cod liver oil
preparations on account of their di-
gestive disturbances.
1t is for this reason we want to
respectfully call your attention to
Vmol--a cod liver preparation con.
tanning Cod Liver Peptone made from
fresh cod livers and cod liver oil, all
oil eliminated), together With Iron
Peptonate, Beef Peptone, Iron and
Ammonium Citrate, and pure Native
Wine.
( Vinol is non-secret and in our OPP
inion. superior to old-fashioned cod
liver oil and emulsions, because
while it contains all the medicinal
value they do, unlike them yinol is
deliciously palatable and agreeable to
the weakest stomach.
We feel that medical practitioners
who once prescribe Vinol will do so
continuously, as under its treatment
patients gain strength and put on
flesh almost from the start"

cine and Surgery.

Bennington will on Wednesday eve
ers of the Bellows Falls Chamber of
Commerce. The visitors are making
a two days trip through Bennington
and Windham counties and will be
in Bennington over night. The chief
public function will be a supper at
the Putnam house at which Ben
nington men are invited to be present
to meet the visitors. 1t will be under
the auspices of the board of trade,
but it is not necessary to be a men,
Der of the '5oard of trade to attend.
1t is, however, necessary for the hotel
to know how many to prepare for so
all who will attend should notify Sec
rotary e. S. Harris of the Board of
Trade. In this connection The Ban
ner wants to say few plain words.
The Bennington board of trade was
organized five years ago and for five
years has struggled along and accom-
plished a good deal without much
money and with mighty slim support
except from faithful few who have
done all the work and stood all the
cussing. The Board of Trade has To-
ing enterprises in Bennington which
are today in operation and employing
labor here at good wages. The Board
has aided two others that without it's
help probably would not be doing
business here today If it hadn't been
for what the Board OF Trade has
done Bennington would have been a
mighty dull town during the hard
times of the past two years. In 9th
er directions the Board of Trade has
done a lot for the town that need not
be retold here. Yet last spring when
the Board of Trade held its annual
and dinner at the Putnam
house and brought here one of the
best speakers in the state, man of
talent, who gave a wonderfully fine
address on matters of interest to
every man, only three local merch
ants and scattering few other citi-
zens attended II that is tho
way the people of Bennington intend
to support their Board of Trade,
which is doing all that it can, With
the limited means at its command, it
is time the fact is made known. Let
the attendance and interest Wednes-
day night show our visitors and
prove to ourselves that we are alive.
