We can manufacture poisons within
our own bodies which are as deadly AS a

The liver acts as n guard over our we'll
being, sitting out the einders and ashes
from the general circulation. A blockade
IN the intestines piles a heavy burden
upon the liver. II the intestincs are
choked or cloggod up. the circulation of
the blood becomes poisoned, the system
becomes loaded with toxic waste, and we
suffer from auto -intoxication or pto-
maine poisoning. Something Is wrong
with the liver, and we suffer from head
ache, yellow-coated tongue, bad taste IN
mouth, nausea, or gas, acid dyspepsia,
languor, debility, skin or eyes yellow,

pigments. At such times one should
drink plenty OF water between meals,
and a pint of hot water before breakfast,
and occasionally take pleasant Taxa

ROAD BUILDING POLICY.
Secretary Houston Sets Forth Plan fol
War Times

| Secretary Houston Of the department
of agriculture, in communication to .hC
| American Association of State Highway
| Officials, has set forth squsrely the pol
| icy which he thinks should be followed
in highway construction during the war
| Secretary Houston says;
80 far as it is practicable to do SO
this department win urge the mainte-
nance of the highways already con
structed: the construction and compile
ton of those highways which are vital
ly important because of their bearing
upon the war situation or for the move.
ment of commodities; the post pone-
ment of all highway construction rela
lively less essential or not based upon
important military or economic needs
'The department is prearing to sug-
gest to the state highway departments,
the preparation of schedule of work
for the federal aid projects for 1918 in
line with this policy"
In carrying out the policy thus an
nounced there has been sent out by the
office of public roads, of the department
OF agriculture, schedule forms on which
the states are requested to set forth
their proposed federal aid work for the
1918 working season. These schedules
call for a description of each road. the
character, quantity and rail haul of the
materials TO be used, the probable cost &,
the amount of federal funds desired, the
specific purpose of the improvement, its
bearing upon the war situation, md
what effect deloy of the work until
1919 or later would have. With the in
formation thus assembled and classified,
an efficient road construction program
is assured. While it is impossible to
make any definite statement regarding
the transportation of road materials, The
expectations are that the transportation
situation will be improved and that the
shipment of such materials for esseut q:
projects can be made.
Road construction and maintenance
in the United States involve an annual
expenditure OF some S3e0,000OOO. and
there is scarcely a section of the country
that Is not seriously affected by a.
marked disturbance in road work.

Beldens "Hoodoo" Station.

Beldens, where the boiler of Rut
land railroad locomotive exploded Jan
%, causing the death of Fireman \. :
McCauley of Rutland has been the scene
of many accidents.
About three years ago a Winooski
man named John Karkl leaped from
the New York sleeper at Beldens. As the
was only bruised little he went into
the woods and killed himself His body
was found next morning. In about the
same spot several years ago Walter Still
son was struck by the noon flyer. His
body was badly mangled and every bone
was broken. Later a deaf man walking
on the track near Battell's woods stopped
TO tie his shoe string. What was thcn
called the White Mountain FLYER
struck and beheaded him.
Near the same place Freight Conductor
r. +. Foy, Burlington man. fell from
his train and was killed. Several sui
cides also have occurred near the spot
OF the recent wreck.
In 1852 occurred perhaps the worst
wreck az this place when hog train and
passenger train cellided. Eight OF nire
people were killed, ss many injured. md
about 900 hogs killed. Debris was scat-
tered around for miles. Old resident. "a
Bcldeus could tell of countless other &C
cidents which have occurred near ~
dens. correctly giving IL the name II the

TEAM PLAY.
Those Who Eat Must Aid Those Who
Fight to Win War.

The United States is just US-yol
and | and the folks next door and thu
| people across the way--just US.
All the government does is our doing
Its strength is our striving; its resource:
are our savings.
What we do counts TO make or break
the power of the Unised States-every
minute, every act---to save or destroy
US.--In all we do all we spend, all we
eat-we must have care.
Food is our first and last resource, the
dominant resource in this war. Our food
supply is the final dependence of our
allies: the food situation is the worst
worry in Europe worse now than when
we began to figlh On our food supply
hangs their fighting power, their chance
of avoiding famine, their hope of sur
vival
We already have shipped to Europe
every grain of last years surplus wheat.
To keep them going we must stretch out
our remaining supply--eat more corn
and oats and potatoes. We must send
them more meat-eat poultry and fish
and beans.
That means team play going without
wheat one meal every day and Wednes
day every week; il means going without
meat one meal every day and Tuesday
every week; no pork ON Saturday;
weekly sugar limit of three quarters of
a pound apiece.
Team play-you and and the folks
next door and the people across the way
will do all that needs to be done. Let's
help.

On Jan. s. the day of the big snow
storm, young Clarence Benedict, an Ad-
olson schoolhoy, lost his watch on the
way home, and later in the day when
Horatio Spooner, rural mail carrier,
arrived home, his son found near the
sleigh small open face watch with
leather fob, which the R. f. d. man had
never seen before. After hearing of the
Benedict boys loss it was turned over to
him when he recognized it, and it is
supposed that the mail carriers team
came along soon after the boy lost the
tinepiece, that the fob caught on the
brace of the sleigh tongue, near where
it is attached to the body, and was
drawn along two miles through
the soft snow until the hard floor of
the barn was reached, when it was
shaken loose.
