Inactive Kidneys 90
- Cause Disease

Z shall not soon forget the benefits derived
from the use Of Foley Kidney Pills."-A. A.
Godfrey. Forest Grove. Oregon.
Too much work and too little work
seem to have about the same effect
on persons past middle age. Proper
action of the kidneys is necessary to
good health. They act as a filter
and remove from the blood poisonous
waste matter which If permitted to
remain in the system leads to many
complications.
Many nervous, tired. rundown men
and women suffer from pains in the
back and sides, dizzy spells, bladder
weakness, sore muscles and stiff
joints and fail to realize that rheuma-
tism, diabetes or even Bright's dis
sase may result.
If you have cause to believe that
your kidneys are weak, disordered or
inactive you should act Immediately.
Foley Kidney Pills have been used
by young, middle aged and old with
complete satisfaction. They act quick.
" and surely and have given relief

Sales Of War Savings and
Thrift Stamps in Vermont
to May II, 1918
AS Reported to the State Dis
hibutor of War Savings

The net sales of War Savings and
Thrift Stamps in Vermont for the
week ending May II, 1918, amount to
$40,11S.53. The State has a per
capita sale to date of only $1.S3 and
is far behind the average for the ma
ton at large. The publication oe
these figures should spur Vermont on
to do it's bit" to the full.
Danvllle continues to hold first
place among the five leading towns
or cities, followed by Wallingford,
Waterbury, Montpelier and Lyndon
in the order named.
The fine record of Waterbury in
increasing her per capita sales from
$2.05 to $3.50 during a period of two
weeks is noteworthy and an example
that should be followed by every COM
munity in the State. .
Criticism has been made that the
figures compiled in this office as to
the relative standing of the towns are
misleading. Sales in townships and
cities are used as the basis of COM
parison and therefore in towns COW
cred by rural delivery routes from
other towns an injustice is undoubt-
eddy worked.
This coalition has been constantly
before us and we have made and are
making every effort to remedy It.
We ask the aid and cooperation of
town chairmen, postmasters and ru-
raj carriers who are acting as solici-
tors in giving credit to the proper
towns when reporting sales.

More than twenty families have moved

Although the mill employees went out
on strike last May, ard the strike has
never been declared off," yet the mill is
running as usual, many of the former en-
ployees have resumed work, and enough
new ones secured so that about the same
number are employed as before the
strike. But, owing to the change in
hours, the three eight-hour shift system
having been inaugurated, more men are
needed Those who have come here
have found conditions better than repre-
sented and are contented to stay.
Good positions, at good pay, await
the right men. There are also chances
for several intelligent girls.
On request we will give yon the names

when the roads are free from snow, ice
and mud, but at this season OF the year
it is the hardest kind Of work, according
to Crosby Adams of the Auto Parts and
Repair company, who knows from actual
experience, says the Springfield Sunday
Union in reporting the trip of a former
Brattleboro boy. Mr. Adams went to
Buffalo, n Y, recently to drive a car
back over the road for the purpose OF
finding out if it could be done profitably.
After his experience he concludes that un-
til the roads are in good shape the dealer
will be saving money by not attempting it..
Owing to the difficulty OF getting Ford
cars, Mr., Adams and another driver went
| to the Ford branch in Buffalo, where they
obtained coupe and sedan They left
| Buffalo on Wednesday morning and ar
rived in this city Friday afternoon, after
the severest kind OF driving over all kinds
of road conditions There was plenty OF
snow and ice, with mud thrown in to add
to the discomforts OF the drivers almost
all the way across New York state
! At Pittsfield tbs were told that Jacob
Ladder was impossible 10 they took the
Great harrington, Canaan, Winsted and
Hartford route to this city. II was pass
able; that is the most one could say fol
it.
Mr.. Adams proved that driving from tht
factory can be done, but it is not advisa
bic. Besides the time and incidental ex
penses for the driver, the strain put upor
the car Is terrific, more in fact than a cal
would undergo in a whole season of norma
conditions
Mr.. Adams learned on this trip tina
while many cars were sent out from tn.
factories during the past month to max
the trip over the road, the greater par
OF them failed to get through and barn
all along the route, especially on the roa,
from Cleveland, are housing large mum
bcrs waiting for better road conditions.

tending to invade Siberia, which Jap
an must view with the gravest appre-
hension. Consequently intervention
had been discussed seriously at home
ami abroad.
In order to prevent misunderstand-
ings arising from false reports, said
the foreign minister, the government
welcomed the opportunity to make the
statement that Japan was not propos-
ing OF initiating Intervention. He con-
tinued:
cit is desired to make it clear,
however, that the Imperial government
does not regard Russia as an enemy.

cerely the deep and warm sympathy of
the nation for the Russian people"

Another item that should not be
overlooked Is that the more we cur
tail building and improvement during
the war the better it will be for the
boys when they return from the front
to obtain employment.
There is great dissatisfaction over
so among the wage-earner, but the
fact must not be overlooked that the
high cost Of living is caused by the
high cost sof labor, and the manipula-
tion of prices. However our govern

in the way of regulating prices, and
when the time comes that our little
grocerymen who get together in some
