CURRENT COMMENT
Pity and Enry.
There are manv indications that the
agents of Charles Ponri, modem Midat,
operated in Vermont towns with Ital
ian populations. One of them, under
cover, undoubtedly visited Rutland and
addressed a local Italian lodge. The
members turned him down. Now they
are wondering whether they are 3pei(
to congratulation or commiseration
whether they showed intuitive shrewd
ness or "passed up" the opportunity of
a lifetime.
Ponii had an office In Burlington
and local Italians declare he is con
templating a visit personally to Rut
land to open state headquarters to
direct hi operations in the indus
trial centers of the state. He will,
however, await the result of the pres
ent investigations. Meanwhile he is
"shelling out" and a former auditor
alleges he is psying one set of custom
ers with the deposits of another, just
s the same informant allege he paid
hi famous "60 per cent in 90 day."
Ponzi denies both charges.
Those in Rutland and Vermont who
had the chance to "get in" and did
not, still have their money. Their
earnings through investment would nt
least have been decidedly speculative.
They are better off to play "sum
thing," ssy, United States government
bonds at 85 paying 4'4 per cent on

The Miracle of Milk
Drink Your Way to Health
Bv drinking from that font from which issues the white waters of
youth, health and strength
MILK
Dr. Harry B. Oalatian. an eminent authority on the subject, tells us
that the liberal drinkinjr of milk will keep anyone well, give renewed
energy, greater reestanee to disease, a cleaner complexion and a better
feeling of bodily comfort, than any spring tonic or blood purifier ever
compounded.
Gov. Frank O. Low den of Illinois pays this beautifully epreed
tribute to the cowi
"The cow is a most wonderful laboratory. She takes the rraes of
the pasture and the roughage of the field, and converts them into the
in(it perfect food for men. In that fWd there is a mysterious some
thing bith scientists haxe found essential to the highest health of the
human rs-e and hich can be found nowhere else. Men have sought for
centuries the fabled fountain of youth; the nearest approach to that
fountain which has ret been dicoered ia the udder of the cow."
Don't wait nntil yon are ordered to a sanatorium or a preventorium
to lesm that you mut consume liberal quantity of milk. ITon't wsit
until the physician orders milk. Use it now. If yon don't like it, yon can
learn to like it, and you will soon be convinced of the
