EXCHANGE CERTIFICATES FOR
REGULAR FISHING AND
HUNTING LICENSES
BEFORE JUNE 18th.

Through the fault of no one the
regular Vermont hunting and fishing
licenses were not procurable at the
opening of the fishing season of 1921,
and a great many sportsmen were
compelled to accept certificates issued
by town clerks in lieu of the legal
form. Every town clerks office in
the State now has ample supply of
tie regular license blanks and those
sportsmen who are equipped with
the temporary certificate for the
legal license form in order to avoid
possible complications. In the event
of lest certificate it might be diff
cult for a person to replace it un-
less the records Of the clerk were
very we'll kept and complete, but
lost license is always easily replaced
by the Office that issued it. The
clerk retains the old license stub and
can issue a new permit from the in
formation in his filed.
Sportsmen are asked to make the
change before the 18th of June.

pie recommend Doan's Kidney

d. Couillard, blacksmith, Nam

statement October 2, 1908:
Through the recommendation of
a friend | was induced TO try
Doan's Kidney Pills. For some
time | had suffered from kidney
trouble until it became almost
unbearable. The kidney secre-
lions were irregular in passage
and highly colored. Soon after
using Doan's Kidney Pills, felt
like a different man. | could
sleep we'll nights and was not
compelled to get up because of
the kidney weakness. ] cannot
say enough in praise of this rem
edy and hope other sufferers may
be induced to try Doan's."
On May "a, 1920, Mr. Couillard
added: Il haven't changed my
high opinion of Doan's Kidney
Pills for they are as good to-day
as they were when l first recon-
mended them. | use them once
in awhile and they always give
excellent results"

same that Mr. Couillard had.
