The Toke Was on Her Mother.

'fWell, that's good joke on your
mother" remarked the husband to the
June bride after the family Sunday din
ner. "She is always so particular about
butter, and when you put on the Benefit
Brand Sweet Nut Margarine, l wanted
to kick you under the table"
eyes, it was funny when she said, in
her best manner, What good butter you
have, my dearl' Of course | told her all
about it afterwards She could hardly be-
lieve it; and tomorrow she is going
around to the Direct Importing Coz
yellow front store at go North Main
street, Barre, for you know it's the only
place in town where you can buy Sweet
Nut and where Benefit Brand teas and
coffees are retailed at wholesale prices
You see it looks like butter when served
and tastes like butter, although it is
churned out of the crisp white meat OF
cocoanut and pasteurized milk. Somehow
like it better when think it is made
of such appetizing ingredients. ADV.

PUBLIC GATHERINGS STOPPED.
Board of Health Makes Sweeping Order
Which Covers Whole State.

Burlington, Oct THE state board Of
health in session here Friday issued an
order closing all schools, churches, pic
ture houses, places of public entertain
ment and all public assemblange of peo-
pie throughout the state until further
notice.
This is the most drastic action ever
taken by the health board in its history,
The official notice was telegraphed to
every health officer in the PAT towns and
cities in the state. In the imterpreta-
ton of the order much has been left TO
the local health boards, When WinOoski
received the order Saturday afternoon
the health board of that town irlme-
diately classified saloons ais public gath
ering places and these We're closed.
There were reported to the state board
Saturday CAST cases of Influenza in the
state and the officials have no doubt that
the number of new cases was much near
er 1000.
Very few cases reported are among
elderly people, which leads physicians to
believe that person who has had trou-
BILE once is immune. A peculiar feature
of the epidemic is that ii affects the
eastern side OF the state much worse
than the western side.
The reports Saturday were divided by
counties as follows:
Addison, l56; Orange, 2s3; Orleans,
10; Rutland, 1873; Washington 1922 /;
WfndhaIn, so; Windsor. ls4; Benning-
ton, IS; Caledonia, 1899; Chittenden,
So; Essex, 2; Franklin, 794; Lamoille 20.
