WhooIling Cough.

This is very dangerous disease,
particularly to children under five
years of age, but when no paregoric,
codeine or other opiate is given, is
easily cured by giving Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. Most people believe
that 1t must run its. course, not know
ing that the time is very much short
ened, and that there is little danger
from the disease when this remedy is
given. 1t has been used In many
epidemics of whoomng cough, with
pronounced success. 1t is safe and
PLEASANT to take.

The Real Highway Issue.

The highway issue in Vermont is
not question of which type of road
we would prefer, but rather which
type of road we can afford. AS an
abstract, academic proposition all of
us would like to see good cement
roads following the valleys and top
ping the hills of our state. Likewise,
many of us could see advantage in
spending the winter in some warmer
cline and the summer by the sea-
shore; could wish that we might send
our boys to preparatory academies
and our girls to finishing schools,
with one or two collegiate degrees
added, completing it all with a grand
tour of the continent as in the days
of old. But we can't do it because
we haven't the money. So with the
road issue in Vermont; it is ques-
ton of finance, of what in good judg-
ment, we can afford. And of course,
to repeat one of Senator Bryant's
stories, we don't want to duplicate
the following: The wife asked hubby,
"Do you think you can arrange to
have an automobile this spring ?" To
which hubby rer lies: "No, I can't ar
range it so we can afford one but I
can arrange it so we can have one"
Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1922-02-15

That things have not reached bot
tom is Indicated by the recent 20@o
cut in wages Of the textile workers
of New England, following a 227a %
cut about year ago. Working hours
are also to be increased from 48 to
"a. The Central Vermont clerks and
other workers in st. Adams have re-
ceived a cut and other wages are al
so being lowered. Many articles of
necessity and of luxury continue to
go down and adjustments of all
kinds are continually taking place.
President Harding says. things are
nearly back to a place where bust
ness may swing into high gear, but
there is still apathy and apprehen-
sion on the part Of the public. Every
jar means one less to better times so
let us not despair.
Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1922-02-15

An Orleans county boy who has
been a New York state road engineer
for several years and last year en-
tered the road contracting field and
was a successful bidder on three size
able contracts in that state last sea-
son, recently told the writer that a
Is mile stretch of road which includ-
ed one of his contracts, was costing
100000 to build of concrete and of
other hard surface materials. This
is specific information from young
engineer and contractor whose exper-
ience. qualities him to speak with as
surance about the cost of this type
of road. This man also said he did
not believe Vermont could afford to
build this type of road.

The Rural Letter Carriers of Or
LEANS county are to meet in Orleans
on the 22d of February to hold their
annual meeting. These men as a
class are exposed to the hardships of
winter in all it's phases as perhaps no
other class of persons. Day after
day, summer or winter, storm or
shine they bring the mail to the door
of those who live away from the
villages. Many are their difficulties
and many are the small things pa
irons may do to take from their work
it's disagreeaDle features. For in
stance a. letter, unstamped in the box
with two cents deep in the recess of
the cold receptacle to pay the postage
does not tend to add to the pleasures
of driving 20 odd miles on a bitter
morning. To unmitten his hand, feel
around in the snow and perhaps
lose the pennies is not likely to make
them feel all "honey and pie" Yet
most R. F. D. men always wear a
smile.
