Dangers of Draft.

Drafts feel best when we are hot
and perspiring, just when they are
most dangerous and the result is
Neuralgia, Stiff Neck, Sore Muscles
or sometimes an attack of Rheuma-
tism. In such cases apply Sloan's
Liniment. 1t stimulates circulation
to the sore and painful part. The
blood flows freely and in a short
time the stiffness and pain leaves.
Those suffering from Neuralgia or
Neuralgia Headache will find one or
two applications of Sloan's Liniment
will give grateful relief. The agon-
izing pain gives way to a tingling
sensation of comfort and warmth and
quiet rest and sleep is possible. Good
for Neuritis too. Price Csc at your

A Costly Kindness.

"There is one feature of the anti
American movement in Japan that is
unique, l believe. 1t dates from the
Portsmouth treaty, when, as is pop
ularly reckoned, President Roosevelt
took a prominent part in securing
peace. Behind the scenes it is well
understood that the Japanese govern
ment was anxious for peace at that
time, although assuming the attitude
of victors, and that Mr.. Roosevelt's
activity was in the nature of coming
But the peace terms were very disap-
pointing to the Japanese people, who
had been led by their government to
expect something different; and a
consequence was that the meddling
of the United States was blamed for
robbing Japan of substantial fruits
of victory. OF course the japanese
government knew the truth, yet with
ample means to do So, it did nothing
to counterfeit this popular impress
sion, which obtains this day, nourish-
ed among other sources for the pre-
yailing dislike of America among
Japanese. 1t is doubtful If parallel
exists in modern times for this in
stance of a friendly and beneficial act
by one nation for another nation be-
ing deliberately used or allowed to
create antagonism against the nation
doing the favor."-Thomas +. Mil

THE LONG TRAIL.
Green Mountain Club Hopes to Complete
1t This Year.

The executive committee of the Green
Mountain club have appointed special
committee with Theron S. Dean as chair
man to raise sufficient funds to make
possible the completion OF the Long Trail
from Massachusetts, TO Canada during
the year 1916. The committee felt that
the greatly increasing use by Vermont
ers and by people from other states of
the parts OF the trail already made show
that the interests Of the state require
the immediate completion OF project
which means the opening up of the scenic
resources Of Vermont to all mountain
lovers.
The Long Trail is a unique Vermont
institution which has attracted wide in
terest and promises great increase of
Nermont's business as vacation state
both in summer and in winter. A trail
from one end of the state to the other
erly equipped with camps and shelters
is a necessity, ii Vermont is to play her
part in state hospitality and thus TO
capitalize the asset which has given the
state her name as the Green Mountain
state.
The executive committee Of the Green
Mountain club has appointed the fol
lowing chairmen OF the standing com
mittees of the club: Austin f. Halves,
chairman of the trails committee DIR.
