for people in California to demand
Vermont butter it is entirely practi-
cable for Vermonters residing in states
nearer Vermont to demand Vermont
butter. There may be no Vermont
butter in the market where they re-
side, but if they keep demanding it
persistently enough. and in sufficient
numbers it is quite probable that the
market will supply itself with YER
mont butter If the butter is procur-
able. Again, every Vermonter is lover
Of apples. When they 60 away from
the state they carry with them fond
ness for Vermont apples. There may
be no Vermont apples on the market
where they do Their trading, but con
slant request for Vermont raised ap-
Piles will have tendency to cause the
dealers to take notice that Vermont
produces brand os apples of such
excellence that there is steady, per-
sistent demand Tor the brand. We
hear of Vermont turkey in far away
states. Perhaps the turkeys never
stepped foot on Vermont soil; but the
label Vermont turkey is a standard of
excellence. Call for Vermont turkey.
When you eat maple sugar you natur-
ally want to know if the sugar was
made in Vermont, because Vermont
is the home of the best maple sugar.
Likewise, when you begin to think
about dying you wish to have on your
grave the most perfect memorial in
texture and workmanship that it is
possible to produce; so you ought to
demand that the material be OF Yer.
mont granite or marble and cut into
splendid form by the skilled woIkmen
who have been gathered into Yer
mont's monument centers, the chief of
which is Barre.
And so it goes through long list
of products which are either peculiar
to Vermont or which have. reached the
highest standard in Vermont. The in
dustries of the state are not getting
the benefits which they might expect
through this means of publicity-the
efforts of the Vermonters who have
left the home state for residence in
some other part of the country. Let
these people-Vermonters still though
they may be many. many miles re-
moved-join in general, persistent
demand for the products which they
know that Vermont turns out. Let
them say to the store keeper that they
want Vermont-made butter or Yer

DO YOU NEED BUILDING up?

There are conditions of i'll health in
which no one particular organ appears
to be at fault, yet the patient is miser'
able and unable to pursue the activ-
tiles of daily life with vigor and en-
ioyment. Sometimes the cause is at
tributed to the imagination but the
patient knows that the debility is real.
The remedy evidently is medicine
that will benefit the whole system
rather than a part. The blood reaches
everywhere and an improvement in its
quality is quickly followed by an i'm
provement in the whole organism. DIR.
williams Pink Pills make visible
improvement in the condition of the
blood. The microscope will verify this
Improvement but the patient can see
il in the mirror as shown by increased
color in cheeks and lips and added
brightness of the eyes. There will also
be new elasticity in the step. These
things record an improved tone in the
body and If this tonic treatment is per
sisted in for a reasonable length OF
time, depending upon the degree of
debility, the condition of i'll health will
be removed.

Blood" free on request from the DR..

The tribute to the American flag
penned by Col. F. w. Galbraith, ir,
late commander of the American Le-
gion, just a few days before his death
in an automobile accident at Indianap-
oils, is a clam declaration of allegiance
which carries weight because it lacks
much of the spread -eagleism that oft
entimes goes with eulogies of such a
nature, and because it seems to carry
conviction of the writer. Galbraith de-
clared that the flag which represents
a great and benign" nation which us
striving to make the Golden Rule an
international, as well as an individual
tenet" is glorious emblem and a
symbol of right and truth" On the
other hand, if the nation is mean, jeal'
Gus and untrustworthy its emblem be-
comes "only bit of colored cloth.
Commander Galbraith then proceeded
to show that the Stars and Stripes
is an emblem representing the high
est things in life and for that rea-
son we Americans should reverence it
deeply and should pledge again our
love for our flag and our firm purpose
to serve it," Mindful of the devotion
OF the writer of those words, Ameri-
cans will take on a more firm pur-
pose to serve the flag faithfully.

ONE WAY TO AID VERMONT

GENTLY put 400 pounds of Vermont ma

the town OF Cabot Which fact re-
minds us that om Vermont friends
who have sought residence in some
other states can do an incalculable
good for their old home state by in
sisting on buying Vermont-made prod

One of the most hideous deaths
which one could imagine would be to
be locked in an alright bank vault
with the timelock set for "a hours
away. The feelings which came over
a New York bank clerk when he real

ined. Fortunately the janitor happened

from the inside, and the holder of the
combination did the rest, after two
