EEET BADLY FROSTED.

| spent several winters in North
Dakota, and in Canada; where frost
ed feet and hands, and even frosted
faces were very common and eff
cient cures were hard to obtain.
Finally we learned of the following
simple remedy, which we used with
wonderful RESULTS.
The remedy is pigs feet OIL and
is obtained by cooking pigs feet, in
Guiding the lower joint which con-
tains the joint grease corresponding
with meats foot oil obtained from
beeves. When cold you have a jelly
like substance which is used freely
as a salye. Since we learned of this
we have given it to many people who
used it with great results. The last
was man who served in the trench
IS in France, where he froze his feet
md has been troubled with chill
blains every minute since. He used
this a few days ago and the results
were so great he declared every one
who served in the trenches should
know about it. That is what prompt
ed me to write this. The pigs feet

CHOPPING UP NEW ENGLAND
Famous Landmarks Of the Early Days
of the Nation Are Succumb-
ing to progress"

Little by little the old mansions
that gave New England towns a
physiognomy, so to speak, of their
own are going the way of all things
that have lost utility. As an instance
Of what is happening, it is noticed that
in Pittsfield, Mass, a house of many
chambers is being sawed in two, its
sections to be moved and transformed
into up-to-date apartments.
The chopping process has been 60
ing on so long the wonder is New
England looks at all as one feels it
ought to look. Only sixteen years
after the Salem merchant Elias Has
kett Derby, in 1893, built his ex-
pensive dwelling it was torn down
because nobody could afford to live
in 1t.
Fortunately many of Salem's brick
and wood reminders of her spacious
days have survived inviolate, to the
delight Of every visitor whose tastes
are antiquarian. Parts of old New
buryport, Portsmouth and few
other cities and villages are similar
ly embalmed. But the old houses, as
the families that own and cherish
them disintegrate, will come on the
market and go for a song to prac-
tical-minded wreckers and builders.
Not few of the country houses
will have longer lease of life.
Architects have done no happier work
than in refurbishing, without undue
violence to the lines of the original
structure, old-fashioned, classically
New England farmhouses that lucky
city jewellers have Chosen for their
intervals of rustication.
The most notable of the extant
Colonial mansions have still a chance
of passing down the centuries. Tie

England Antiquities has already saved

occasion when friend of his had

The clergyman thought that the man
must be getting pretty shabby, so he
looked up a suit-they were much OF

The mans wife took it, and the
clergyman waited in the room, as he
says, "ready to be overwhelmed With
thanks" But when the woman re-
turned she said:

Wasn't That He Was Afraid.

A Colonial bishop, who was on a
voyage to his diocese encountered a
very severe storm. The passengers
were greatly alarmed, and so, too,
was the bishop, who hastily convened
a prayer meeting in the saloon.
When the storm had abated the
skipper of the liner chaffed the bishop
regarding the matter.
81 should have thought" he said,
that anyone so keen as your lord
ship to get to heaven would not have
been afraid of a Storm"
"Hang it ALL" retorted the bishop,
"you don't think | want to go to
heaven by water, do yOu?"-LondOn

a result of his visit, probably, and

The local people are all interest
ed in the outcome of the lawsuit
between Martin Gibson of Ryegate
end the Connecticut Valley Log
ging and Driving company, over
the proportional ownership of the
local waterpower on the Connect
cut river, which is now in the New
Hampshire courts for decision. 1t
does not seem to be big amount
involved, and is said to be the only
thing that is in the way of the big
development projects on the river
that are already to function and
which are expected to bring about
industrial wonders for this village
and all this section, but even
big enterprises do not like to buy
partnership in a lawsuit hence the
delay.
An interesting announcement
which will be of interest to the
general public as we'll as to local
people is the proposal for the
towns of Barnet and Monroe to
buy the toll bridge across the Con-
necticut here and make it a free
thoroughfare. Manager Philbrook
Of Canaan, N H., is said to have
offered the property at reason
able price and it is expected that
the twin states will be asked to
pass enabling acts in the legiSla-
lures this winter Such a bill is to
be introduced in the Vermont leg
islature by Representative John
Roy Of Barnet and the New Hamp-
shire Legislature by Representative
Oscar Frasier of Monroe.
All these things, and many more,
touching the material life of
community are talked over at these
series meetings of the Gale
donia Farm Bureau, along with
good seeds, the right kinds Of
fertilizers and the most economical
seeds to plant. The general dis
cussion of all these subjects, view
ing the questions of vital interest
to the life Of the farms at all
angles, are what make the work
OF the Caledonia Farm Bureau Of
such vital importance and help to
the community. 1t should have the
loyal support of every progressive
farmer in Caledonia county.
McIndocs is hopeful. Its village
life has on all sides of it some of
the best farms in Caledonia coun-
ty. 1t expects better things and it
has not Jared so poorly, year in
and year out, after all, but, as one
member expressed it, 1--WE have

This is, by the way the corn belt
of this section, and along the river

have always been some fine orn

Shropshire sheep are some Of the
best in all this section. County
Agent Barnes showed pictures of
jerry Abbott's chicken raising
projects over in West Barnet,
recommending that lights in the
hen houses be installed to increase
the egg yield. One member sug-
gestcd that it would be an insult
to the hens to furnish them lights
like those now in operation, but
the low water is to blame for the
present unsatisfactory condition.
An interested spectator was Rev.
John l.. Wesley of St. Johnsbury.
He had a broken axle on his auto

and get busy. Everyone in the home, Pa, Ma, Bobby,
Mary Ann, Grandma and Uncle Bill. First see who
gets the most at home. Then combine your list and
send in the big list to the Press office and if your list
has the largest number of correct words you get a
prize of $500. u
But if with your answer you send in $500 for one
years subscription to the Miller Press you get $500.
If you send in two subscriptions you get $4,000 as first
prize and if you send in three subscriptions including
one new subscription you get $500; and if you send
four subscriptions, including two new ones, you will
receive $4,000. See table of prize elsewhere in this

CURRENT EVENTS
Wilson Comes Back.

Woodrow Wilson, former president
of the United States, has come out of
his retirement and again is taking an
active interest in political affairs.
Many think Wilson may agan be
powerful figure in politics.
Wilson was president for two terms
--eght years. He left the presidency
in March 1921, when Warren G. Hard
ing, the present president, took Of
flee.
AS soon as he left office, Wilson
went to his home at Washington. He
seldom appeared in public. He never
made speeches. He never wrote for
publication.
Many tried to learn Wilson's opin-
ions on the affairs of the nation. But
ne would give them no answer. Even
when enemies criticized him, he re-
manned silent.
Then-at g meeting of democratic
party leaders in New York Il message
thought to be from Wilson, was read.
This message came from Joseph p.
Tumulty, secretary to Wilson while
| president.
Shortly after this message had been
read, Wilson sent letter to New
York newspapers denying that he had
written or authorized the message.
Then, few days ago, Wilson wrote
another letter-this time to st. Louis
newspaper.
- This letter was about Senator James
A. Reed of Missouri, who wants to be
reelected Reeds friends had said that
Reed had aided Wilson. But Wilson II
his letter says Reed opposed him In
kNead OF aiding him.
These two letters are Wilson's frs
! public statements since he left thu
presidency. They indicate that his sc
cluded days are over and that he prob
ably will continue to take an activ'
part in politics.
