Were Not Qualified to Vote on Ques-
tiOn-Mrs. SIaytOn to BE Guest of
Honor at Annual Meeting.
One of the most interesting meetings of
the season of the Brattleboro Woman's
club was held at Odd Fellows temple
yesterday afternoon, when Walter Hill
Crockett of Burlington, editor of Uni
versity publications of the University of
Vermont, spoke in an extremely interest
ing manner on Vermont in History. The
day also was observed by the club as
Vermont day. The club chorus rendered
several selections very acceptably pre-
vious to the talk.
Following the business meeting and
musical selections the president Mrs. C.
l.. Stickney, introduced the speaker. who
remarked that it was particularly fitting
that an address on Vermont history
should be given in a place as historical
as Brattleboro, the actual beginnings of
the state being centered in large part
about Brattleboro.
He began with the establishment of
Fort Dummer and its relation to AIassa-
chuSettS, New Hampshire and New York
and the settlement of POwnal which was
made later IN the same year, and touched
upon the natural highways along the
lines of the rivers, saying these had been
followed first by the Indians then by the
earliest settlers and down to the time of
the building of the railways and the
present highways.
Mention was made of the French at
tempt to make a settlement on Lake
Champlain and of a settlement in the
present town of Alburg of the traditions
regarding the birth of the first white
child IN the state, saying the first of which
there was any record was Timothy
Dwight The majority of the first set
tiers came from Connecticut while the
people from Massachusetts came as a
close second, but there also We're many
from other. colonies.
The form of the New Hampshire
grants as compared with the form of the
New York grants was outlined, as We're
the opposition to the New York authority.
Ethan Aliens first appearance for Yer

speaker referred to the policy of the bor-
der warfare which was followed many
years and to the Green Mountain Bows
under Ethan Allen and Seth Warner.
adding that significant fact of the bor-
der warfare was that no blood was she'd
He also spoke Of the difference between
the situations in the eastern part of the
state and those of the western part.
The early days of the Revolutionary
war, the Westminster massacre, the can
ture of Ticonderoga and the request by
Ethan Allen and Seth Warner before the

RECIPE TO CLEAR
 A P|MPLY SKIN
PimplcS arc Impurities Seeking an Outlet Through Skin
 Pores

Pimples sores and bois usually re- suit from toxins, poisons and impuri- ties which are generated in the bowels and then absorbed into the blood through the very ducts which should absorb only nourishment to sustain the body.
 It is the function of the kidneys to filter impurities from the blood and cast them out in the form of urine, but in many instances the bowels ere ate more toxins and impurities than the kidneys can eliminate, then the blood uses the skin pores as the best means of getting rd of these impuri- tics which often break out all over the skin in the form of pimpes.
 The surest way to clear the skin of these eruptions, says a noted authori- ty, is to get from any pharmacy about four ounces of lad Salts and take a tablespoonful in a glass of hot water each morning before breakfast for one week. This will prevent the formation of toxins in the bowels. It also stimulates the kidneys to normal blood of impurities and clearing the skin of pimples.
 lad Salts is inexpensive. harmless and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia. Here you have a pleasant, efferVescent drink which usually makes pimplcs disappear; cleanscs the blood and is excellent for the kidneys as well.
