Stating that there was good reason to
believe that the New Hampshire Legisla-

law which will subject New Hampshire
depositors in Vermont savings banks to
local taxation, number of prominent
bankers from the SOUTHERN part of the
State appeared this evening before the
| banking and insurance committee ask
ing that Vermont pass law ex-
empting money from taxation of
Vermont citizens deposited in New

would probably avoid such legislation.

amounted to large sums. 1t was said. and
they would be withdrawn IL New Hamp-
| shire passed such n law.

NEED S. SIS.
RIGHT NOW i!

"good -for-nothing" feeling so
prevalent just at this seasonY The
reason is easily explained, and the
condition can be readily correct
ed. There are certain demands
made upon the human system ev-
cry day, and weather conditions
play an important part with the
functions of the body. 1mpurl-
ties have accumulated during the
long winter period, your blood
has become sluggish, and as the
health of your body depends upon
the condition of your blood, it is
impossible to be vigorous and feel
buoyant when it contains the
slightest impurity.
Nature needs assistance, and
the feeling Of lassitude is her dis
tress signal calling for aid. She
needs a cleansing tonic that will
sweep away the accumulated i'm
purities and prepare the system
for the bright and sunny spring
time.
1t is right now that everybody
needs few bottles of S. S. S., the
greatest blood purifier and tonic.
This is truly natures own rem
edy, for it is composed only OF
the roots and herbs of the forest,
being guaranteed purely vege-
table, and absolutely free from
any particle of mineral substance.
1t promptly cleanses and revital-
ICES the blood, renews the appe-
tite and imparts strength to the
entire body. 1t should be taken
right now by every member of
the family Rresolve that this
spring will find you and yours
prepared for the change, and you
will have a new enjoyment in the
change of seasons.

To Prepare The System
for Spring

The change of seasons Is al
wavs severe on the human sys-
TEN. Particularly is this true of
the change from winter to spring.
With the change of seasons there
salso a change going on within
the human system that IS very
trying on the average person, un-
less nature is given some assist
ance.
The severity of winter has a
wearing effect and leaves the
body in a rundown condition.
That is what is meant by the gen
cral debility which seems to af-
feet so many people, commonly
called "Spring fever" Anyone
is liable to feel its depressing in
fluenee.
At this season men who are Wig
orous and active. and need all
their strength in their daily pur-
suits, find creeping over them a
feeling Of weakness which in
creases until their entire system
becomes worn-Out and break
down seems imminent.
Women become nervous and
tired their household duties seem
more than they can stand, they
can hardly drag themselves
around, so weakening is the all
rundown" feeling which takes
possession of them.
Spring ailments are common to
children. for this is the season
that is most severe on their little
bodies. They become puny. lose
appetite, are cross and irritable,
all because they are not in the
proper physical condition to stand
the change.
Why is this general rundown,
