The Brattleboro Reformer says that
the territory in southern Vermont
where it is proposed to construct a vast
fish and game preserve never was
suited to agriculture and meyer would
be-; SO there can DO no protest on that
score for utilizing the land for the pre-
serve. The contemporary also says
that many of the so-called abandoned
farms in Vermont never ought to have
been farms at all and 1T was good
sense to abandon them" Nevertheless,
most OF those farms were sufficiently
good to enable the farmers to gain a
living if they were willing to buckle
into the work; and most of them would
do the same again if the right Kind of
spirit was back of the operation of
them.

Why should the French sculptor De-
Warreux select North American In
dian as the model for typical Amer
lean soldier in portraying the partici-
patton of the United States in the great
war? There is no doubt that the In
dian members of the American expedi-
tionary forces fought well and courage
ously, but they were scarcely typical of
the army which the United States sent
to France and they were so few in com
parison with the whole that their part
was very small indeed. Probably the
figure and the lineaments of the North
American Indian lend themselves adj
mirably to the seulptor's Imagination
but the composite of them does not
faithfully represent the American sol
der who participated in the war The
choice of DeWarreux for a model should
be the cause for protest in the United
States.

In a Hurry.

A prominent visitor to Boston
stopped over Sunday and accompanied
his host and hostess to church. In the
pew in front of them was lady who
during the reading of the 23d Psalm,
kept a dozen words or so ahead of the
rest of the congregation. The visitor
took note of this and when church was
out he inquired, "Who was the lady
who was already by the still waters
while the rest of us were lying down in
green pastures ?'-Boston Transcript.

Doan's Kidney Pills Have Done Great

Many Madison people work every
day in ONE strained. unnatural posi-
tion-bending constantly over a desk
riding on jolting wagons or cars
doing laborious homework; lifting,
reaching or pulling. or trying the
back in a hundred and n other
ways. All these strains tend to wear,
weaken and injure the kidneys until
they fall behind in their work of fill
tering the poisons from the blood.
Doan's Kidney Pills are fro weak kid
neys and bad backs. Their effective
work in Madison is convincing proof
of merit.
Mrs. Chas. Martin, COL Third st.
says: II have used Doan's Kidney
+ ills with very good results and am
glad to endorse them. My kidneys
were in bad shape and I had dull, tir-
ing backaches. My work wore me
all out and / had no energy. My
kidneys acted irregularly, TOO. A
friend advised me to use Doan's hid
ney Pills and / found they were just
the thing for me. Doan's helped me
right away. The backaches left and
