to bring out many of the merits of Ver
mout's changed system of administration
in this department.
Harre's new board of license commis
sioners had a brief and, comparatively
; speaking, uneventful olliciul career,
thanks to the legislature and governor of
the state.
New York state is beginning to think
t about taking a military census. Ver
niont is just about completing hers. On
the basis of the difference in the popula
ttion of the two states, New York should
. have started several months ahead of
i Vermont.
In view of the recent reverses in the
'. eastern section of tho empire, it would
. not be surprising if Turkey were bring
" ing loud protest to the kaiser's ears
'nbout the continuance of the war. The
fall of Bagdad is" about to be followed by
. the capture of Jerusalem by the British,
one might judge by the sweeping prog-
rpj.s being made in Palestine.
The much-advertised open field ma
neuvering on the western front seems
to have slumped down into the trenches
again; the (iermans were averse to pit
ting their strategy against the entente
allies. The memory of the battle of the
Marne, in which French strategy turned
the tide of battle and saved Paris for
France, is still somewhat fresh in the
minds of the German general (staff.
The governor of Rhode Island issues an
appeal to all aliens in his state to become
naturalized citizens of the United States.
No doubt the governor of Vermont would
desire to issue a similar appeal to the
aliens of his state, emphasizing at the
same time that the prospective citizens
maintain a higher conception of citizen
ship and loyalty to American institu
tions than a certain educator in the Uni
versity of Vermont showed after taking
out first citizenship papers since the
outbreak of the present war. If one is
to become an American citizen he should,
in fact as well as in name, renounce all
allegiance to the country from which he
came.
MORE HOLLWKO. EVASION'.
In almost flippantly throwing the re
sponsibility of the threatened war onto
the shoulders of the United States, the
German chancellor declared that tier
many has not had, and does not now
have, any intention of "attacking the
United States of America" and that,
therefore, if there should come war be
tween the two nations the United States
would be the one to start it. He then
falls bark on the old subterfuge, framed
up bv himself, that because the United!
Stales did not brimr Great Britain to do!
just as Germany wished, then Germany
is justified in an indiscriminate campaign
against the commerce of all nations. In
his first nsf-ertion tho spokesman for the
German nation seems to take it for
granted that fo attack the United States
would be to send a navy against our
shore and then to land an army of in
vasion. That, according to his apparent
interpretation, would constitute "attack
ing the United States." Meanwhile, ac
cording to that same manner of reason
ing, German vessels of war could con
tinue to make war on the shipping of a
neutral nation and still not be "attack
ing the United States." He overlooks
the fact that Germany is violating all
international agreements in thus attack
ing neutral commerce without the usual
right of "weareh and seizure" being ex
ercised prior to such attacks. He pur
posely overlooks that fact and reiterates
that Great Britain is conducting a block
ade, which he calls illegal, although he
indirectly admits that a blockade if ac
cording to rules of warfare. It is evident
from both the tone and the letter of
Chancellor Von Bothmann-Hollweg's as
sertion in the Reichstag on March 29
that the United States has nothing to
hope from that source in the prevention
of the declaration of war between itself
and Germany, and that it is up to the
Washington government to go ahead on
the lines already laid down.
According to official reports received
by the government in Washington only
83 Germans have crossed the border from
the United States into Mexico since the
probability of war with Germany devel
oped. This figure is much in contrast to
the lurid rumors heard about the coun
try of the vast numbers of Germans who
were assembling in Mexico for the pur
pose of making attack on the United
States as soon as war is declared. It is
probable that the official reports are not
completely accurate and that more Ger
mans have actually gotten across the
border than known to the officials. How
ever, the number is scarcely large enough
to furnish any uneasiness to the people
of the United States, much less to the
government itself. It would take a
force of many thousands of well-equipped
men to make any real serious effect on
the United States, even in the Mexican
border elates. Therefore, we should not
worry needlessly.
A ALAN OF EXPERIENCE FOR A NEW
.JOB.
The appointment of John E. Weeks of
Middlebury to be director of state insti
tutions under the law formulated under
recommendation of Gov. Graham brings
to the new administrative position a
man who has had a great deal of expe
rience in connection with Vermont state
institutions and who. therefore, might be
expected to bring out favorable result
from his supervision. In addition to his
extensive legislative service at Afontpe

speaker of the House, Mr. Weeks has
been a trustee of the etate indn-trial
school at Vergennes, cattle commissioner
nd chairman of the board of penal in
stitutions. In tlie latter capacity he has

A Bad Back
Made Good
(By L. W. Bower, M. D.)
Backache of any kind is often caused
by kidney disorder, which means that
the kidneys are not working properly.
Poisonous matter and uric acid accumu
late, within the body in great abundance,
overworking the sick kidneys, hence the
congestion of blood causes backache in
the same manner as a similar Congestion
in the head causes headache. You be
come nervous, despondent, sick, feverish,
irritable, have spots appearing before
the eves, bag under the lids, and lack of
ambition to do things.
The latest and mot effective means of
overcoming this trouble is to eat spar-
inirlv of meat, drink plenty of water be
tween meals and take a single Anuric
tablet before each meal for a while.
Simply ask your favorite druggist for
Anuric (double strength) if you aren t
feeling up to the standard. If you have
lumbago, rheumatism, dropsy, begin im
mediately this treatment with .Anuric.
Most scientist and medical men believe
that because of an over abundance of
uric acid in the system, uratic salts are
deposited in the tissues and cause rheu
matism and pout.
The j.hsicin and specialists at Hr.
Pierce's Institution in ButTalo, N. Y.,
have thoroughly tested Anuric and have
hwn with one accord suvefu1 in eradi
cating and throwing off from the system j
the uric acid which acuntulatcs and poi
nons. Pateints having once u-d Anuric
at t hi" institution have repeatedly sent
back for more.
Sin h a demand has t-cn created that
(Vator Puree derided to put Anuric in
the dras stri- of this country, in a
n-ady-to w form. It will lie th-ir on
fault if tho-c uiTrrinc from uric a id

Years ago the only way to get this mix
ture was to make it at home which is

Nowadays we simply ask at any drug

of .this old time recipe improved by the
addition of other ingredients for about
50 cents. Everybody uses this prepara
tion now, because no one can possibly tell
that you darkened your hair, as it does
it so naturally and evenly. You dampen
a sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another appli
cation or two, your hair becomes beauti
fully dark, thick and glossy and you look
years younger. Wyeths Sage and Sul

quisite. It is not intended for the cure,
