this winter to chronicle sundry &C
counts of successful wheat raising In
this section, but We believe none OF
our farmers have done better than has
our friend, S. Fl. Foster of Calais. he
sowed eight bushels of Dodge wheat,
so called, Oh four acres OF land, ana
harvested one hundredand thirty-eight
bushels of most excellent wheat there

Charles Hill was born in Scotland
August 20, 1912, and died in Lyndon,
where he had spent about 80 years,
February 25, 1869. Bound out when
boy to learn trade, he zealously
applied himself for the mastery of it.
1t was then he exemplifed the truth
of these words of Burns, " A man may
be poor, yet honest too" and laid the
foundation of his future usefulness
Finishing his trade, he set about earn
ing money for the purpose of leaving
his native land, to him a dowerleSs
Atlantis. In due time, saving enough
to pay his passage, he set sail for
America, buoyant with hope OF future
success. He landed at Quebec. ana
soon made his way 10 the United
States, where he has resided ever
since, with the exception of a residence
Of few months in Sranstead. Ii

honest industry, be again crossed the

ed to her reward. Early, Mr.. Hill |
became an adopted citizen, renounc-
ing all allegiance to every foreign
prince and potentate, and until his
death he bore true faith and allegiance
to the country of his adoption. He
was no idler: but worthy example
| of industry Earlv and late year in
and year out, he devoted himself as
siduously to his business and undoubt-
eddy worked more hours in the course
of year than any other man in town.

The question of suffrage is one

With pleasure we read your com
mandatory article published a short
time since, respecting the popular
and almost indispensable Preparation
now so widely known as "Barrett's
Vegetable Hair Restorative" Hav-
ing used this preparation ever since
its discovery, we feel more than an
ordinary interest in its success, and
are pleased to learn that it is general
ly used and appreciated throughout
the entire country. Unlike most of
the dirty, sticky, nasty nostrums put
up and sold as Hair Restoratives and
Dressings, this compound not ONLY
completely restores the hair to it,
original color, but surpasses all 9th
ers IN many important points. w
have studied its effect as compared
with others, and find its superiority
lies chiefly in the following accomp-
ishments:
Flrst-It is sure to restore the hair
TO lis youthful beauty, producing one
distinct shude while others leave the
halr il many raried coIors.
secoud-When restored, the color
Is mate fast, and The hair does not fade
into It's former dlscoiored appearance.
Thlrd-lt promotes growth when
others fail to reproduce single hair.
Fourth-It acts directly upon the
roots and not as a dye
Fifth-It cures all diseases of the
scalp and removes dandruff and hair
eaters.
Sixth-Being a vegetable compougd
it is perfectly harmless.
Seventh-It is highly perfumed and
free from all dirty and gummy sub
stances.
In recent article published by
the proprletors of this perfect Prepa-
ration, we are glad to observe a syn
opsis of its history, and are gratifed
to learn that the extensive sale it is
now having will in some degree re-
ward Mr.. Barrett for the labor and
study so faithfully bestowed by him
in making a compound to reach the
exact wants of the public. Nothing
but merit could ever have given this
Preparation the reputation it now en-
joys. Mr.. Barrett is native of New
Hampshire, and we'll known as being
the original discoUerer and manufactu-
rer of the vegetable Hair Restora-
tive" all others put up in a similar
manner being worthless mutations
and the public should exercise great
care how they tamper with them.
improvements in capillary adorn-
ments in this age of vanity and pride
have become of as much consideration
and Importance as the discovery of
any new science or mechanical inven-
ton. We are steady admirers of
distinguished inventors, and hope that
"Barrett's Vegetable Hair Restora.

fame, and merit meet with its reward
