FIRE AT LYNDON INSTITUTE.
Ti2omp on Hall Gutted-Trustees Vote to
Rebuild.

LYNDON, Jan. 4-Fire which was
discovered shortly after / o'clock yester-
day morning Quilted Thompson hall. the
administration building of Lyndon irsti-
tute, destroying its entire contents All
that remains of the historic structure are
smoking brick walls, chiInneys and a part
of the bell tower With the thermOme-
ter registering % or more degrees below
zero, the water froze as it ran down over
the outer walls in spite of the flames
within. Apparently originating in the
upper part of the building, far removed
from any heating apparatus, the cause of
the fire will probably never be known.
Over 300 students are registered at the
institute and the majority presented them
selves yesterday morning only to find
their school home, which was erected in
1869, in ruins. The building and its con-
tents were insured for $4,000. a sum
which does not half cover the loss.
Eighteen members of the board of trlls-
tees were present at an emergency meet
ing during yesterday forenoon and unani-
mOusly voted for rebuilding. commit
tee, with Elmer \. Darling as chairman,
was selected to conduct a campaign for
funds.

THE MOTHER OF MEDICINE

Isis, the Queen and afterwards the
Goddess, was called the Mother of Med
icine." In ancient Egypt. centuries be-
fore Christ, women were skilled in medi-
cine. They knew the great value of med
icinal plants.
Hippocrates, the Father of Medicine"
many centuries later, knew less of the
merit of vegetable drugs than did the
women Of ancient times.
Lydia L. Pinkham, nearly fifty years
ago, gave to women her Vegetable Com
pound, known everywhere as Lydia f.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound This is
wOman's medicine for woman's all
ments, prepared from medicinal plants

The proposed duty of &c pound

dried hides has brought a vast num-
Der OF protests from constituents to
members Of the senate before whom
the general tariff bill is now being de-
bated. While these protests are com
ing in the live stock producers are
urging that the rates be retained, and
in some instances the senators are i'm

WIDER HIGHWAYS WIN FAVOR
Originally Engineers Considered TO-
Foot Roadway Adequats-Now
Urge 20 Feet.

Former Superintendent Of Illinois
Highways s. e. Bradt Of DeKalb, ILL.,.
who has done much to boost the good
roads movement In his state, says en-
gineers originally considered a 1O-foot
highway adequate to meet the needs Of
traffic between populous centers.
Then they learned the folly Of this
contention and boosted the width. 1t
was finally made 10 feet. Roads are
being built 10 feet in width and now
come prominent engineers advocating
a 2O-foot highway.
The shoulder maintenance Is prom
inent factor entering into this prob
lem. The upkeep of shoulder usual
ly exceeds the original cost of the ex-
ira two feet Of pavement, II has been
learned by experience. For this reason
highway experts are going on record
advocating the wider pavement for
trunk line highways. The upkeep Of
shoulders is very high, especially
where there is heavy truck traffic.
