DEGOESBRIAND MEMORIAL HOS.
PITAI..

PlIAL.
Father Leonard called the attention
ofhis congregation last Sunday to the
matter of the great institution for suf-
fering humanity to be erected in Bur-
lngton in the near future to the
memory of the sanity Bishop De-
Goesbnand. In view of the fact that
the small village of Winooski has re-
sponded so generously, we have every
reason to believe and to hope that the
citizens of Mlddlebury and vicinity will
be no less generous in contributing
cheerfully towards this worthy object
From now on those who wish to make
offerings for above purpose may send
same to Rev. T. j. Leonard, Middeblry,
and these offerings will be acknowledged
in the local papers after Easter, and
committees appointed to solicit for the
good work. We will not expect to get
as much here as was procured in the
tweve-day campaign in Burlington,
but we earnestly hope that Middlebury
will hold an honored place by its
generous offering cheerfully given for
thi noble purpose.
A very striking appeal was sent out
by the Right Reverend Bishop of Bur-
lington some time ago, in which he
stated that for forty-six years Bishop
DeGoesbriand went about the State of
Vermont doing good. And mention is
also made of the profound respect and
reverence in which this noble son of
France was held by all classes through
out the length and breadth of the State.
AS the proposed memorial is one that
will benefit Catholics and non-C Catholics
alike, it is to be hoped that all, who can
do so, will lend helping hand towards
this noble undertaking.
The half-past eight o'clock Mass
next Sunday morning will be offered for
the repose of the soul of the father of
Bishop Rice, lately deceased.

SUIT IN EQUITY,
Mr. and Mrs. Fred Newton ohtaI n
Temporary Injunction.

A suit in equity was recently
brought by Fred and jennie Newton of
Mlddlebury against N. j. Sanford and
H. C. Russell of MiddIebury, in which
The Newtons allege that foreclosure
proceedings were brought against them
by the defendants in November, 1915,
but that the copies of the bill of fore
closure left with them by the officer in
making service were not read by them,
but instead were laid away and un-
touched until very recently; and that
meanwhile the mortgages had obtained
decree against the farm on the East
Mlddlebury road know as the Levi p.
Boardman farm, and occupied by Mr..
and Mrs Newton; that the time for pay
ing the amount named in the decree has
expired, and that the equity of redemp-
tion of the Newtons in the farm IS fore.
closed.
The orators pray that the Court of
Chahcefy VIII open or set aside the
decree and permit them to redeem the
amount of said mortgage, although the
time therefor as fixed by the decree ex-
pired some W eks ago.
In connection with the bill in equity
the orators obtained temporary in
junction, restraining the defendants
from conveying, encumbering or taking
possession Of the property Whether
or not the injunction will remain in
force during the pendency of the pro-
ceedngs will be decided on hearing.
The foreclosure proceedings were
based on conditional deed, in the
nature of second mortgage, given to
the Newtons by Messrs. Sanford and
Russell in 1912 in settling certain busi-
ness affairs involving various mortgages
against the property. In this connec-
tlon the Newtons alege that they were
not aware Of the condition in the deed,
md that it ought not to have been in
,luded.

AutO-IntOxicatiOn
Explained!
lBY L. II. SMITH M NJ

HN
There is no question but that many
people suffer from auto-intoxication
and ptomaiEe poisoning. These are
big words which are easily explained.
Through the failure Of the liver to
properly perform its work the twenty
seven feet OF intestnes become clog
ged. This Stagnation throws poisons
into the blood and the circulation, and
one suffers from bad breath. foul
taste in the mouth, and even yellow
coated tongue, headache, nausea or
fullness. Gas often presses the dia-
phragm against the heart and causes
pain there. or acid dyspepsia follows:
often the inactive liver causes yellow
skin and eyes. and one feels languid.
tired and debllitated. At such times
some people are advised by their doc
tors to take a mineral oil. often called
Russian Oil" but experiments by X.
+. Mcdonald have shown, as lately re-
ported in q government publication OF
the t. S. Public Health Service, that
mineral oil may act as an irritant that
produces gastrO-intestinal disturb
ances and that it may cause tissue
prOliferatiOn, Stimulating cancer.
A better method, which I always
advise. is 20 take as much outdoor ex-
ercise as possible, drink half pint
OF hot water morning and night and
plenty Of water between meals and
take pleasant laxative pill occasion
ally Such a one is made up Of the
May-apple, of vegetable calomel, and
other concentrated herb extracts that
give tone TO the bowels. This was
first made and sold by almost all
druggists nearly so years ago as Doc
tor Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. Such
simple means will remove that bug
bear. auto-intOxication. constipation
and the ills that follow, by fayoring
healthy action.

Sure! High Heels
Cause CornS But
Who Cares Now

Because style DEGREES that women
crowd and buckle up their tender toes
in high heel footwear they suffer from
corns, then they cut and trim at these
painful pests. which merely makes the
corn grow hard This suicidal habit
may cause lockjaw and women are
warned to stop 1t.
A few drops Of drug called freez-
one applied directly upon a sore corn
gives quick relief and soon the entire
corn, root and all lifts out without
pain. Ask the drug store man for a
quarter of an ounce of freezone, which
costs very little but is sufficient to re-
move every hard or soft corn or callus
from ones feet.
This drug is an ether compound and
dries in a moment and simply shrivels
up the corn without inhaming or even
irritating the surrounding tissue or
skin. Clip this out and pin on your
wife's dresser.
