Peculiar Alter Effecls
of Grip This Year
The Commandery Ball
The fifth annual ba'l of the Lamoille
Commandery, held at Hyde Park Inn last
Wednesday evening, was one oi the finest
events of the season and rdtikci among jLeavM KjdneyJ ( Weakened Condition

been kept busy with the epidemic nl grip
which has visited bo many bonus. Tlie
symptom) of grip this year die often verj
distressing and leave tlie iy em iu a run
down condition, particularly the kidneys
which seems to suffer most, as almost
every victim complains of lame back and
urinary troubles which should not be
neglected, ao these danger signals often
lead to dangerous kidney troubles. Drug
gists report, a large sale on Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root which so many peop.c say
soon heals ami stieulheim the kiiluuyh
after an attack of grip. Swamp-l!.i"t is
a great kidney, liver and bladder remedy,
aud. being an herbal compound, '- a
gentle healing effect on the kidneys,
is almost immediately noticed in most
cases by those who try it.' Dr. Kilmer
& Co., Binghamton, N. Y., offer to send
a sample size bottle of Swamp-Root, on
receipt of teu cents, to every sufferer who
requests it. A trial will convince any one
who may be in need of it. Regular size
bottles 50etB. and $1.00. For sale tit all
drusilMsts. Be sure to mention this paper,
two hundred persons were present, or to
be exact, ninety-one couples. The party
included representative folk from Stowe,
Morristown, Johnson, Eden, Cambridge,
and Hyde Park, as well as a dozen cou
ples from Hardwick.
The music was by Riley's Orchestra of
Barre, six pieces, and was all that
could be desired for eit ter concert or
dancing. A half hour concert preceded
the grand march, which took place at
9.30. This was made up of Knights
Templars and their ladies, and a pretty
sight it was the uniforms and glittering
swords of the Knights with the hand
some gowns of the ladies making a very
attractive spectacle. Thirtycouple went
through the intricacies of the march, led
by Eminent Commander and Mrs. Wake,
After that came the dancing and the
twenty numbers occupied the time until
2 o'clock, at which time the event came
to a close. During the evening a buffet
lunch was served in the dining-room.
Altogether the event was a most enjoy
able one and all who attended were well
pleased with it. For the success of the
same credit should be given thecommitte
and C. E. Sayery of the Inn.
An interesting feature of the ball was
the Edison Disc Phonograph concert
which was given in the hotel office.
Maurice Green of Morrisville was in
charge and the selections rendered were
the latest up to-date songs and instru
mental music, which were highly enter
taining. B. J. Kelley of Morrisville is the
agent for this splendid machine.
Fiftieth Anniversary
The fiftieth anniversary of the estab
lishing of an industry is not an everyday
occurrence, but the little town of Hyde
Park has within its confines a concern
which on January 10th passed the half
century mark. C. S. Page, representa
tive, governor, now United States sena
tor, and withal a big business man,
started in the calfskin industry in wnr
time. It has grown and flourished until
today it is known in all parts of the
world, a business which has been con
ducted along the same ideal lines which
characterized the man at the helm, pos
sessing that stability of character which
can but make for ultimate success. We
hope that the country, the State and
Hyde Park will enjoy the services of
Senator Page for years to come. Poult

LINCOLN
Written for the centennial auniversnry of
his birth. Feb. 12, 1909.
He, unto whom the king would honor pay,
Vssted in renal garb, in pomp was placed
On royal steed. A prince belore him paced.
"Behold one whom the kingrewards today'
How mean would seem the trumpet's futile
bray
Acclaiming him -whose saddened features
faced
The four years' storm ! With what insignia
graced
Shall this devoted land its tribute pay
To Lincoln's memory ? Let no trumpet's
blare
With brazen echos celebrate his birth.
In vain are boastful word and vaunting ilted
To honor him who bore our load of care.
One tribute only can befit his worth :
Plain justice to the people whom he freed.

New England's Soil
The department of agriculture has been
doing some very wholesome muck-raking
of facts, regarding the soil of New Eng
land. The condition of things which it
has revealed, in its report upon this Mil)
jeet, is one to give the ;vw j&ngiani.er
pause for thought. Substantially it is
that there are three asres of tiil.iMe
land, for every aero that is used. This
means that Now England might r.vist)
twice as much produce, as it raises now,
supposing that no gain could be made
over the raothods in use today, for better
production. There are a few places in
New Englaud, notably near Boston, where
laud is very expeusive, that- ore tilled to
the limit, but the great bulk of the laud
that is used for farming, orchards or
truck gardening, in this paitof tlie coun
try, does not produce any'hinsr like tlni
amount that should b required of it,

tion and have worked very hard. In 1905
I was taken with inflammation of the
bladder. I suffered for a few weeks anrl
grew worse. The best doctors gave no
permanent relief, I was mo discouraged
that I thought I wmld never get well.
About this time I met a man who had
been greatly benefited by Dr. David

Tobacco Should be Smoked Up
Soon as it s Cut Up
Then it is bound to be fresh to smoke cool and
sweet because the natural moisture hasn't a chance to
escape. That's the reason experienced smokers stick to
the good old Sickle plug slice off a fresh pipeful as they
need it and get all the original flavor and fragrance
that have been pressed in the plug, and kept there by the
natural leaf wrapper.
These smokers could save a minute's time by getting their
tobacco already cut up but they know it would also be dried up,
would burn fast and bite their tongues.
You'll find solid satisfaction in smoking Sickle. And youH
get more tobacco, because there is no package to pay for. Your
dealer sells Sickle.

SOCIAL JUSTICE.
Let us consider the criminal.
We are foolish in our trentmivit
cf him. A man of criminal stock
kills some one. His case conic.s
up R'fore a jury- .vmpatliy
for him Is aroused, and in some
countries his chances of felting
off are very good. I am jiot go
lug to uiake tile cfiinlnal re
sponsible for what he does. Of
course he Is innocent. Hut that
does not alter the fact that he
must be dealt with stonily in or
der that society and the fenera
tions of the future may lie pro
tected. Sympathy with the crim
inal is an injustice f society.
Tlie pursuit of happiness for our
own sakes as well as for others
is a mean sort of tliiji;,r. This
is the beefsteak idea of happi
ness. More laudable than this
is self denial practiced t.i insure
the future progress of our ra.'e.

Lincoln of Norwich, England, and th
son of Thomas Lincoln, an unedu
cated and thriftless carpenter, who
had married Nancy Hanks. Few book!
came within his way in boyhood, but
he had access to the Bible, Shake
speare, "Aesop's Fables," "Robinson
Crusoe," "Pilgrim's Progress," and a
history of the United States and
Weems' Washington, the reading and
re-reading of which laid the founda
tion of that mastery of idiomatic Eng
liah which he was to show so often in
later life.
At the age of twenty-one he acorn?
panied his father to Illinois, and there
won reputation as a rail-splitter by
helping to clear and plant some 15
acres of land. In 1831 he made ac
quaintance with slavery in a trip to
New Orleans, . renewing the expert
ence ten years afterward.
After slight service as a volunteer,
Lincoln settled at New Salem, enter
ed for a while into politics, tried his
fortunes in a dry goods and grocery
store, and finally settled down to the
study of law. In May, 1833, he was
appointed to postmastership of New
Salem, and held the position for three
years,
Elected to the legislature as a Whig
In 1834, Lincoln was sent to congress
In 1846, from which date began his
public campaign against slavery and
his oratorical contest with his rival,
Stephen A. Douglas. On July 1, 1852,
he delivered his eulogy on Henrj,
Clay, and In October, 1854, spoke pow
erfully against the exten&iert of slay
ery into the territqrie, Lincoln, aft
er being again, returned to the leg
islature, on. June 17, 1856, named
for vice-president at the Republican
J nominating convention in Philadel
phia. Then followed his -challenge to
j the seven famous debates with Poug
j las, and in May, 1860, his nomination
t 'as candidate for president at the Re
i publican natiOKi! eonyentlon. In QM-
cag0, )
i The platform adopted, while de
j .manding that slavery be forbidden
! in the territories, denied the right of
congress to interfere with slavery in
the states. The south now prepared
for secession. Lincoln, elected to the
presidency, denied in bis inaugural
the right of any state or number of
states to leave the Union. The re
ply of the Confederate government
was General Beauregard's bombard
ment of Fort Sumter. The president
at once called out 75,000 volunteers,
and the war for the , Union was on.
The history of the conflict was thence-'
forward a part of Lincoln's own polit
ical history until his death by the
hand of an assassin on April 14,
1865.
"The martyr president," says Ward
Lamon, In his life of Abraham Lin
coln, "was six feet four inches high,
the length of his legs being out of
all proportion to that of his body.
When he sat on a chair he seemed to
taller than an average man, measur
ing from the chair to the crowr of
his head; but his knees rose hig in
front. He weighed about ISO pou ids,
but was thin through the breast, nar
row across the shoulders, and had
the general appearance of a consump
tive subject. Standing up, he stoop
ed slightly forward; sitting down, he
usually crossed his long legs or threvr
them over the arms of the chair. His
head was long and tall from the basa
of the brain and the eyebrows; his
forehead high and narrow, inclining
backward as it rose.
"His ears were large and stood out;
eyebrows were heavy, Jutting forward
over small sunken blue eyes; nose
long, large and blunt; chin projecting
far &a sharp, curved unward to meet
a thick lower lip. which hung down
