The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1920-04-17

Why do we feel 50 out of sorts lust
when the hardships of winter are over
and the out door world begins to be
attractive? We are feverish lstless
and weak, while nature all about is
astir with fresh life.
All the strength Of the body comes
from the blood, which must be kept
Yure and rich in red corpuscles to main
tain its vigor. Some of the impurities
that tend to accumulate in the blood
are burned out by contact with fresh
air in the lungs. others are carried
through the kidneys and the pores of
fhe skin. In winter the air of the close
rooms in which we spend so much of
the time does not furnish enough oxy-
gen to the lungs to burn ont the i'm
purities in the blood. Everyone has ex-
perienced the uncomfortable feelings
that follow the breathing of bad air.
The worst effects of the indoor life are
those that are stored up and do not
appear at once.
Stomach Functions Feebly.
In the cold season we do not exercise
as much and the skin and kidneys do
not throw off the waste matter freely.
The whole system gets clogged. just as
a machine does when it is not cleaned
frequently. The stomach does its work
fesbly and gets less nourishment from
the food. So there is weakness every
where, weak organs, weak muscles and
weak nerves.
When indigestion, headaches, Ian
guor, dizzy spells, nervousness and gen
eral weakness are experienced, relief |
can be found by treatment with DR., |
Williams Pink Pills, non-alcoholic
tfnic that has been successfully used /
ty many New England families for
generations.

of $1,000. 100000 had been disap-

Alleges Blue Blood.
Displaying a tiny platinum wrist
watch, which he asserted cost him
$2.500, Sichofsky pointed to his
initials "A. s." and an engraved
coronet on the back of the watch
case. The coronet, he said, was
the crest of his family, one of the
Polish nobility and which included
oh the maternal side, according to
his claims, the blood of the Roths-
childs of England, reputed to be
the wealthiest family in the world.
But Sichofsky ignored efforts TO
obtain definite information about
his family connections, He con-
tented himself with general state
ments and retired within an armor
of dignified silence when pressed
for details.
The Count of Monte Carlo.
Monte Carlo, he explained, was
his undoing. One night he drop
ped" 23,000,000 francs. This in

reporters. The European press
learned of his losses, he said, and
printed an account of 1t with the
result that his noble father disin-
herited him and sent him ION his

face of the earth, speaks several

able to accustom himself to the

explained, and allow one no place

Sichofsky professed to be
amazed at the embe22lement

it to jealousy, admitting that he
has way with the women and
declaring that the present charge
is a result of his superior ability
along this line.

MANY 9TH GRADE
STUDENTS NEVER
CO THROUGH HI
Figures for State Show
That of 2.202 Grammar
Grade Graduates, Only
453 Finished Hi Course.
by CLINTON y. ANDERSON.

Santa Fe, Nov. 20.-One of the
questions with which the educators
of New Mexico will probably want
to concern themselves during their
annual meeting in albuquerque is
the problem of getting the eighth
grade graduates in and through
high school. Statistics prepared
by the state department of public
instruction show that there is a
marked difference in the number
that finish the grades and the total
of high school graduates.
For the school year ending June
30, 1920, the total number Of
eighth grade graduates was 2,202.
This total was divided as follows,
Counties. 1886; cities, 491. anh
towns, 176. During the same
school year the number of high
school graduates was i53, divided
into 225 from the cities and 22S
from the towns.
Examining the above, it will be
seen that the cities had 491 grad
yates from the grades and 225 from
the high school or about one out Of
every two eighth grade graduates
finished the high school. This is
not a bad average, although II
leaves much room for improve
ment. However, at the same time,
there were 22S graduates from the
high schools in towns out of LII
remaining eight grade, graduates,
or one out of eight.
1t Is possible that number of
the eighth grade graduates from
county schools were included in
the high school graduates from
cities, but it is certain that the per-
centage of students going on
through the twelve years is not as
high in the country as it is in the
city.
This condition would suggest
the advisability of a wide
drive for county consolidated high
schools, located in the population
center of the county and attempt
ing to serve all the children

He is said to have told MIR. Gere
that he recently sold a mine at
Parral, Mexico, for 100000. He
is also said TO have admitted that
he played for large stakes at the
famous halls In the Mexican re-
sorts across the border.
Asked why he was going 10

Valet Back To Coast.
His Spanish American valet was
released Friday and is believed to
have returned to Los Angeles. Fol-
lowing his arrest Thursday night
and the confiscation of his money
on instruction Of the Los Angeles
officials, Sichofsky wired a Los
Angeles bank and received $500.
He says that there are unlimited
funds at his command and that he
is independently wealthy on his
own account.

had developed no additional in

cations had as possible object
