It's Easy If You Know DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets

The secret OF keeping young Is to
feel young-to do this you must watch
your liver and bowels-there's no need
Of having a sallow complexion-dark
rings under your eyes-pimples-a bill
lious look in your face-dull eyes with no
sparkle.
Your doctor will tell you ninety per cent
OF all sickness comes from inactive bowels
and liver.
DIR. Edwards. a well-known physician in
Ohio, perfected a vegetable compound
mixed with olive oil to act on the liver and
bowels, which he gave to his patients for
years.

tute for calomel. are gentle in their action.

They bring about that exuberance OF

Relates First Marriage.
'.rhe f.rst marriage in the township
and county took place In this first log
church. The two that were united In
marriage were Mary Whitehead and
John Hunt. They secured their license
at Lawrencebutg, which was q dis
lance of over fifty miles.
"The daughter OF John Beard died In
the summer of 1908, this being the
first burial In the cemetery which be-
longed to the church. This child was
the first white child born in Wayne
county and the first white person that
died in the county was also buried
in this cemetery. In the same year
the daughter OF John Endsley died,
this making the second burial in the
cemetery.
Mary Hunt and James Martin were
among the first converts to the church
and were the first to be baptised In
the creek which flows at the foot of
the hill"
The writer believed that these his
torical events were OF sufficient in
terest for a marker to be placed at
the Elkhorn church by the Wayne
County Historical society.

so-would have done so long ago. had
it not been for the war We are
looked to by all the world as the one
nation responsible for Mexico. From
a recent speech made by Congress.
man Frank L. Greene in Rutland.
It is with justice that all the world
looks to us as the one nation respon-
sible for Mexico. The United States
says to other nations. Hands OFF,. so
TAR as American matters are concern
ed. This is what is known as the
Monroe Doctrine
But if we are to keep other nations
hands off, we may find that the price
of doing this is to put our own hands
on. The nationals of other governments
have rights and properties in Mexico
that should be respected. II they are
not respected. then it is the duty OF
their government to secure that pro
lection
But Uncle Sam says, mo" "You
cant come in" And then the other
nation naturally looks to us to do the
protecting. And it is only right that
it should. The Monroe Doctrine in
other words, while giving protection
to this country. also places obliga
tons and responsibilities upon it.
This our government has seemed to
overlook. 1t seems to be OF the mind
that if it is willing to permit its own
nationals to be murdered and their
property destroyed that other govern
ments should not complain If their
nationals are subjected to the same
treatment
That is a mistake. Other nations
are no so lax in aflording their ma
tionals in foreign lands protection
as we have become under the Demo
cratic administration. There are
other nations which feel il their duty
as matter of national respect, to
protect their citizens wherever assail'
ed and at whatever cost.
Mexico is still to make us trouble
England will not forget the Benton
case. Demands for reparation will
be made and in all probability will he
made To the United states. We have
assumed large liabilities in permittne
anarchy to reign in the Southern re-
public. We still have the fiddler ia
pay.-St Adams Messenger.

One Woman's Way.

A West Philadelphia woman is still
smarting over the compliment" that n
guest paid her when she was hostess at
an entertainment a week ago. The
West Philadelphia woman, whose name
is not Brown, prides herself especially
on her coffee, and she made some Of
her best for this occasion.
Among the guests was a woman who
makes it practice always to compll-
ment persons with whom she comes in
contact. She says it makes others feel
pleasant and doesn't hurt her. During
the refreshments this guest turned to
the woman whose name is not Brown
and said:
Your tea is so delicious! May have

VALUE OF PERU TURNPIKE
Only $16,45o if Company Cannot
Collect Tolls Of Automobiles.

Collect Tolls Of Automobiles.
If the automobile income can be
taken into account the commissioners
appointed by Bennington county court
believe the Peru turnpike is worth
$22,0lO and if the income from auto
mobiles cannot be taken into account
as It is claimed by the towns that the
company has no right to charge for
such under its charter, the old toll
road is worth Sl6450.
The commissioners Just filed their
report in Bennington county court in
respect to the laying out OF a highway
by the selectmen OF the towns OF Peru
and Winhall in which the Peru Turn
pike company was the appellant The
commissioners find that the necessity
and convenience OF individuals and the
public good require that highway be
made over a route described, which is
the route Of the Peru turnpike com
pany which traverses a pass across the
main range Of the Green Mountains
and which has been IN existence and in
use for about century
The proceedings are PROBABLY the
final chapter in the efforts OF the state
to take over the last remaining toll
road in Vermont. The tender of $l4.-
900 made the owners of the turnpike
company by the towns through the
state was refused and an appeal taken
which after hearing now is reported by
the commission.
The commissioners appraised the
lands. easements and franchise Of the
Peru Turnpike company at $1S,266 in
the town OF Winhall at the time, May
>. 1915, when the selectmen of the
town rendered the company $11,6iO.
The appraisal in the town Of Peru is
fixed at $3,144, at the time a tender
was made by the selectmen OF S2.2S6.
That is the appraisal is S22,010 com,
pared with the tender of Sl3,926.
This appraisal takes into account
tolls from automobiles. The toll col.
lected from each automobile is 50
cents, the same amount of toll proyid.
ed by the charter OF the company for
a 'four-wheeled pleasure carriage
drawn by two beasts"
The claim was made before the com.
| missioners by the town that the in.
come derived from automobile travel
and use OF the turnpike road should
not be considered or taken into ac.
count as there was no provision in the
charter for automobiles. If this por,

commissioners appraise the land ease.

company in Winhall at Sl4.O7j and

The Peru Turnpike company was
established under Chapter % of the
