Statements that May Be Investigated
Testimony of Barton Citizens.
When a Barton citizen comes to the
front, telling his friends and neigh
bors of his experience, you can rely
on his sincerity. The statements of
people residing in far away places do
not command your confidence. Home
endorsement is the kind that backs
Doan's Kidney Pills. Such testimony
is convincing. Investigation proves
it true. Below is a statement of a
Barton resident. No stronger proof
of merit can be had.
C. F. Cutler, farmer, Park, St.,
says: "I suffered from lumbago and
with rheumatic pains in my shoul
ders. This bothered me a lot and
made me miserable. I heard of Doan's
Kidney Pills and decided to use them
and I went to the E. W. Barron Co.
and bought some. They relieved me
and I know Doan's Kidney Pills are a
good, reliable kidney medicine."
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy get
Doan's Kidney Pills the same that
Mr. Cutler had. Foster-Milburn Co.,

The Monitor,
Barton, Vt.
Don't Need Too Many.
Don't swerve so far to one side of
the road as to make too many enemies
nor yet so far to the other side as to
make too many friends. A few good
friends are enough, and usually a few
enterprising enemies will manage to
keep you busy. Houston Tost.
Unwilling Police.
Civilian policemen were the only ones
possessed by Glasgow at one time. In
the eighteenth century, according to II.
G. Graham, "the whole safety and or
der of Glasgow were intrusted, to the
unpaid and reluctant burghers. Every
citizen who was between the years of
eighteen and sixty and paid a yearly
rent amounting to 3 had to take his
turn at guarding the city. On touch of
drum the gentleman was at his post
by 10 at night and strolled with weary
tread and yawning gait along the
Trongate and High street and up the
pitch dark lanes of winter nights till 4
in the morning. After that hour the
city was without a police." London
Chronicle.

Parents' Interest in Children.
Psychology pronounces the law of
interest from parent to child to be true.
Therefore, if parents desire their chil
dren to succeed in music cr in any
other subject, the surest way to obtain
that success is to take more than a
passing interest in their work, and see
that they practice the studies which
are designed to insure that success.
Why Oil Will Still the Troubled Waters
Immediately.
Frequently we hear the expression
that some one "poured oil upon the
troubled waters," which is linked up
with the discovery that oil poured over
board from a ship in distress will tend
to increase its safety by stopping the
waves from breaking against the ship's
side. This is due to the fact that the
oil is composed of molecules which are
more closely compressed than the mole
cules in water. The oil forms a kind of
blanket through which the waves can
not break, thus protecting the sides of
a ship that has poured overboard
enough oil to cover the sea for a few
yards in all directions. The waves be
neath the oil are just as violent as
ever, but they cannot break through.

The older the stove the more it wastes, not only in food and pa
tience but in fuel. Saving' a few pounds of coal each day means
hundreds of pounds this winter and saving fuel is just as im
portant and commendable as saving flour.
A Modern Glenwood Range gives wonderful results with the
smallest possible amount of fuel. Get one and start saving now.

Christmas Mail for American Forces.
Washington, D. C, Oct. 3, 1917.
To the Public:
The time is approaching to give
thought to bringing Christmas cheer
to the American soldiers and sailors
abroad.
Arrangements have been perfected
whereby the Christmas mail to the
American expeditionary forces in
Europe is to be delivered by Christ
mas morning. Without the fullest
cooperation on the part of the public
it will be impossible to accomplish
this result.
The three essential respects in
which the public can aid in assuring
a happy Christmas at the front are:
Mail early, address intelligently, and
pack securely. For this reason it is
urgently requested that all persons
having Christmas mail for the sol
diers and sailors and the civilian
units attached to the army in Europe
observe closely the following direc
tions: 1. Mails to reach the soldiers in
France by Christmas morning must
be posted not later than Nov. 15.
2. Every package must bear con
spicuously the words, "Christmas
Mail," the complete address of the
person for whom it is intended, and,
in the upper left-hand corner, the
name and address of the sender.
3. Every parcel must be so pack
ed and wrapped as to admit of easy
inspection by the postmaster. No
parcel will be dispatched to France
which has not the postmaster's cer
tificate that it contains no prohibited
articles. .
