DIZZINESS IS ANNOYING.
AS Many Middlebury People Know Too
Well.

When the kidneys are weak or dis
ordering, they fall behind in fltering
the blood of poisons. As these poi
sons attack the nerves, the result is
felt in spells of vertigo, just as drunk
enness will make man dizzy from the
poisoning of alcohol. Dizziness, head
ache backache and irregularity of the
kidney secretions are all signs of weak
or disordered kidneys and should not
be neglected. Use Doan's Kidney
Pills, the home endorsed kidney rene
dy. Read this Middlebury resident S

Cottaee Cheese Demonstrations

This past week Mr.. Burgwald a
specialist in cottage cheese making,
sent out by the Extension Service of
the University of Vermont has given
two demonstrations in the county. He
urges the making of cottage cheese as
more profitable method of disposing
of the skim milk than that usually en-
ployed on the farm.
Mr.. Burgwald shows in convincing
way that it is better to use the skim
milk for human food than to feed it to
the animals and then use the meat for
food. These are few of the facts he
