MONTPELIER


The regular meeting of the city council
took place Wednesday evening, ending
with an executive session. Alderman
Shurtleff made the motion, which was
opposed by Alderman Galleher on the
grounds that he liked to dispose Of the
peoples business in open meeting; but
the council, by five to one, voted to have
the executive session. During the regu-
lar meeting 0verseer Of the Poor G. T.
Lackey and City Atty. G. l.. Hunt were
authorized TO bring suit against East
Montpelier for the care of James Leno,
who was many years voter in that
town. Mr.. Laekey also presented two
offers for the purchase Of the Hubbard
property owned by the city at Berlin
Corners, and also an offer from Joseph
Eldredge Of Waterbury to pay $50 a
thousand for the maple logs cut this year
on the wood lot in Berlin. Mr.. Lackey
was authorized to sell them at S25 per
thousand The opening Of the new road
from Harry Tabor's was under discus
sion. The council authorized the pay
ment of S275 for bills contracted during
the plague, the rest of the money having
been contributed for the relief committee
before the council had a chance to take
action, some 1888 coming from the resi-
due of the Halifax fund Alderman Gal
leher gave a financial report, showing
$500 expenditure in the poor depart
ment over its appropriation because of
the excessive amount of illness, while the
police and fire departments had oyerrun
their appropriations 1t was voted to
place $4,000 Of the $4,000 on hand in
the water fund in the sinking fund. This
il $4,000 more than is usually trans
ferred II was voted TO give the Capital

Considerable inquiry has been made
relative to the appearance Of the booklet
Of places to room and board, which the
Montpelier Board Of Trade sends to the
members Of the legislature This has
been delayed little this year owing to
the great amount Of sickness in Mont
pelier at the time when the booklet is
generally prepared Some families who
had planned TO take roomers find since
the sickness that they are unable to UNI
dertake the task. Then it is difficult
to get printing done in work OF this
kind under the present pressure Of bust
ness connected with the war.

DANGER after SPANISH
INFLUENZA OR GRIPPE:
How II Can Be Avoided and Treated. Simple Rules TO Be
Followed No Occasion for Panic

No need OF anyone being afraid Of
the after effects and slow recovery
from Spanish Influenza, hard colds
or Grippe, II they win use common
sense and start in building up their
health and strength the right way.
The main thing is to get the blood
rich, red, and pure, so it can carry
life-giving oxygen and strength to
every part of the body. Impure
blood is the cause of so many slow
recoyeries and set-backs.
Doctors say: Get the blood right
and the rest is easy, that nine-tenths
of all sickness is due to lack of iron
and phosphates; the healthy strong,
vigorous man or woman's blood is al
ways loaded with these two life-giv-
ing elements"
Physicians also claim with fresh
air and nourishing food nothing
equals Phosphated Iron as blood
tonic and health builder. Phosphat-

round the village.
Schools were dismissed and the village
