rcoIDtoWallcUprigLL Operation
Advised. Saved hy Lydia E.
Pinlihin's Vegetable Ccnpoisd.
This woman now raises chickens and
does manual labor. Read her stury:
Richmond, Ind. "For two years I
Y7E3 so sick and weak with troubles
from my age that
when going up
stairs I had to go
very slowly with
my hand3 on the
steps, then sit down
at the top to rest.
The doctor said ha
thought I should
have an operation,
and my friends
thought I would not
live to move into
our new house. My
daughter asked me
to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound as she had taken it with good
results. I did so, my weakness dis
appeared, I gained in strength, moved
into our new home, did all kind3 of
garden work, shoveled dirt, did build
ing and cement work, and raised hun
dreds of chickens and ducks. I can
not say enough in praise of Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and
if these facts are useful you may pub
lish them for the benefit of other
women." Mrs. M. O. Johnston, Route

A Thorough Test
One to Convince the Most Sceptical
Barton Reader.
The test of time is the test that
counts.
Doan's Kidney Pills have made
their reputation by effective action.
The following case is typical.
Barton residents should be con
vinced. The testimony is confirmed the
proof complete.
Testimony like this cannot be ig
nored. Mrs. J. W. Miller, High street", Bar
ton, says: "I have been wonderfully
relieved and benefited by Doan's Kid
ney Pills and am always pleased to
endorse their merits. I use this
medicine occasionally and always find
it just as represented." (Statement
given June 5, 1911.)
USES DOAN'S OCCASIONALLY.
On Oct. 9, 1916, Mrs. Miller said:
"My opinion of Doan's Kidney Pills is
still very good. I use them occasion
ally and get very good results. I am
glad to renew my former words in
praise of this medicine."
Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy get
Doan's Kidney Pills the same that.
Mrs. Miller has twice publicly rec
ommended. Foster-MUburn Co.,

HOW TO CLEAN PLATE GLASS
Efficacy of Newspapers for This Pur.
peso Attributed to Materials Used
In Making Ink.
To clean a looting glass take a news
paper, or part of one, according to
the size of the glass. Fold it small
and dip it Into a basin of clean, cold
water. When thoroushly wetted,
squeeze it out in your hand as you
would a sponge and then rub it hard
all over the face of the glass, taking
care that it is not so wet that the
moisture will stream down the glass.
Also If any drops get beneath the
frame and behind the glass they will
remain there In bubbles and cannot be
dislodged without removing the board
at the back. There is no danger of
any such accidents if the newspaper
is merely moistened or dampened
through, without being so wet as to
drip.
After the glass has been well rubbed
with the damp paper let It rest a min
ute. Then go over it with a fresh news
paper, folded small in your hand, till it
looks clear and bright, which it will
almost immediately. Finish with a
fresh piece of newspaper, thoroughly
dry.
This method, simple as It Is, will be
found on trial the best and most ex
peditious way of cleaning mirrors or
any plate glass, giving a clearness and
polish that cannot be soon produced by
any other process. The Inside of win
dow panes may be cleaned hi this man
ner, the windows having been first
washed on the outside. Also the glass
of spectacles. The glass globe of a
lamp may thus be cleaned with news
papers. .
The efficacy is attributed to the ma
terials used in making the printing ink.

SOME REMARKS
On the other hand, most of the
millionaires are merely men who
didn't know when they were well
off.
The difference between pride
and self-respect is that the latter
concedes knowledge to others.
The pleasantest tasks In the
day are locking the front door
and putting the milk bottle out.
Not knowing what Is wrong
with the engine and trying to fix
it Is the surest way to have mo
tor troubles.

IRAS3URG
(Continued from Page Four)
services were rewarded and a tree was
cut in the Chandler company's woods
thanks to the kindness of Mr. Doe,
the superintendent, and after a great
deal of trouble was dragged out of
the woods and hauled to the spot
where it was set up in front of the
town hall. On Patriotic day in the
early evening, teams and automobiles
began to fill the road around the com
mon, until at last more than 500 peo
ple were gathered to honor Old Glory
as it was sent skyward amid the
sounds of drum and horn and the
hurrahs of the spectators. The New
port Fife and Drum corps under the
leadership of Dr. Harry Hamilton, as
sisted by eight royal good fellows and
good players rendered excellent ser
vice stirring the hearts of old and
young with the strains of martial
music. The blood of the old veterans
present was at boiling point and if
they had been suitably armed 'and had
been a little nearer Berlin, the Kaiser
would have been forced to flee for his
life. The Irasburg band, under the
leadership of Mr. Bullard, who al
ways satisfy Irasburg audiences,
played unusually well a number of
very fine patriotic selections. The
band promises soon to be one of the
best of any of the small towns of the
state. It is the duty, and should be
the privilege, of the people of the
town to encourage and financially as
sist the bandmaster and his volunteer
helpers in every possible way and thus
show our appreciation of what they
are doing for our pleasure and profit.
The governor of Vermont sent his
regrets at not being permitted to be
present at the flag-raising and under
the circumstances was excused, not
withstanding our regrets at his en
forced absence. But no finer or more
patriotic speech could have been made
and none more appropriate than that
delivered by Hon. Frederick Fleet
wood. "He was received with great
enthusiasm and his remarks were fre
quently cheered. He proved himself
a strong, forceful speaker. Prayer
was offered by Rev. Mr. Tupper pas
tor of "the Congregational church,
in which all the nations involved in
this terrible war were brought before
the throne of Grace and an earnest
appealwas made for the Divine bless
ing upon all works of mercy and re
lief rendered by humanitarian organ
izations in the warring nations. Af
ter the address by Mr. Fleetwood the
crowds poured into the lower hall to
attend the Red Cross banquet. To
keep the crowd good-natured while
they waited their turns to get seats,
the band and drum corps played some
fine selections.
The hall was beautifully decorated
with the flags of the allies, American
flags large and small, red, white and
blue bunting, Red Cross emblems and
flags and on the tables were flowers
and flags galore.
At the speakers' table in addition
to the toastmaster, the director of
the Red Cross, the Rev. and Mrs. C.
W. Kelley, were the following: Hon.
Mr. Fleewood, Col. Emery, Father
Mahon, Rev. and Mrs. Tupper, Judge
Sears, Senator and Mrs. Russell, Rep
resentative and Mrs. Phillips, Select
men Pike, Hannant and Colton, and
wives, Postmaster and Mrs. Brahana,
and two friends of Mr. Fleetwood.
Chairs were also reserved for Dr. and
Mrs. Templeton. The Irasburg band
occupied one table, the Newport Fife
and Drum corps another and the G.
A. R. boys, and their ladies another.
A fine supper consisting of salads,
rolls, pie, cake, coffee and ice cream
was served in a tasty manner by a
large number of the young people.
Many of the dishes were decorated
with the Red. Cross emblems. Two
hundred and fourteen plates were set
but these were by no means sufficient
and second tables had to be set up
and even then many went away disap
pointed. Over $80 was received and
most of this will go toward swelling
the supply fund of the regular
branch.
Grace was said at table by Rev. Mr.
Tupper. Judge Sears was then in
troduced and spoke of his pleasure in
seeing the stars and stripes unfurled
in Irasburg and of the great success
of the first Red Cross banquet in
Irasburg. The natonal anthem was
then sung by the company with Mrs.
Towne at the piano. Father Mahon,
parish priest, was then introduced and
spoke words of highest commendation
of the Red Cross and the part it is
playing and must continue to play in
the world war, and the need of every
man, woman and child doing his bit
for the cause of suffering humanity.
Mr. Fleetwood was called upon again
for a few remarks, which while not
lengthy, were to the point and well
received. Col Emery of Newport, one of the
state directors of the Red Cross, was
the next speaker, and briefly review
ed the history of the Red Cross .move
ment and-outlined the work of this
organization during the remainder of
the war, and made a stirring appeal
for every true, red-blooded American
to do something, much or little for
the flag. It was a good address and
was heartily appreciated by the
thoughtful auldience present. Mr.
Knapp then threw a number of lan
tern slides on the rear wall of the
hall. They were photographs of dis
tinguished American leaders, Europe
an war pictures, Red Cross hospitals,
and ambulances in France, and Unit
ed States recruiting slides. In intro
ducing the speakers the toastmaster
recited patriotic gems, told stories
and made comment on the part the
United States is to play in the war
and the mission of. the Red Cross.
The last number on the program was
the singing of America, after which
good-nights were said, congratula
tions given and received, and prepar
ations for the home-going were made
by a tired but pleased company. Those
who witnessed the end of this perfect
day were convinced in their minds'
tnat irasDurg is no slacker when it
comes to true patriotism.
To the speakers, the drum corps,
the band, Mr. Washer, the decorators,
and the large number of others who
secured and erected the flag-pole, fur-
mshed tne immense and beautiful
wool bunting flag, and helped at the
banquet, and Mrs. Lilla Willey, as
chairman of the banquet committee,
the sincere thanks of the town and
the Irasburg Red Croas, are hereby
tendered. C. V.. K.
