Mrs. SARAH X. PUTNAM, a elairyoyant physi-
clan in Greenfield, Mass, attended woman who
had diphtheria and scratched her finger with a
pin while arranging bandages around the patient 5
throat. The poison OF the disease entered the
slight wound and Mrs. Putnam's hand, arm, and
at length her whole body became affected, causing
death. The Springfield Republican, gives this
strange feature Of the case " She claimed TO have
been warned OF the spirits not to attend this pa
tent, but that she, having great affection for
the young lady, finally decided to see II she could
save her, saying she was willing to lose her own
life, II necessary, 10 do 3d."

hundred feet in length, with COW stable attached
were completely demolished, with not a timber

short a time and Of such magnitude, was never
known in town Nh Perkins is one Of the first
dairy men in the county, and is he owner, proba-

The Executive Committee on the Soldiers Re

after n careful examination and mature deibcra-
ton, reported last week to the Commander Gen

accommodations, and the extraordinary draft
made upon our citizens by the devastation Of

hospitality and couttcsles to the visiting soldiory
as Montpelier desired to do, and as they had n
right. last year, to expect they would be able to
do. They, therefore, reported that, In their

Thursday of last week we once more
visited the charming city of Bellevue.
On this occasion we did succeed in find
ing brother Hammer at home, and up 10
She elbows in business. He gave us a
cordial reception and spoke in most as-
surfing tones of the success attending
the gprightly Gazette of that place.
Nor was Mayor Letter less courteous in
his greetings, and from that worthy and
universally esteemed public dignitary
we cleaned that everything was pro
gressing most comfortably and prosper
Ously within his jurisdiction. Justice
Merry was, as usual, on hand, true to
his office, pursuing the even tenor of
his ways" in the same affable and zeal
.ous manner. We looked in at the dis
tillery and found everything in full
sway. That institution consumes about
900 bushels of corn per day. At the
power house, where very important
improvements have been made, we
found our tried friend, Mr.. Tom Wood,
running his department, with 10 assist
ants, like a charm, and learnt from him
how steady their trade had been rum
ning-the hard times notwithstanding.
None, who know Tom, fail to fully ap-
preciate him, nor is that mark of dis
tinction i'll bestowed on so energetic and
competent genius. The McKim boys
William and Benjamin-were most
industriously following their daily du-
ties, and spoke in the highest praise of
the recent improvements to power house
engine, while we heard they still EN-
ploy some 60 hands and are tuning out
very large run of trade. More diliv
gent, competent or successful workers
it would be hard to find. Among the
.tradesmen we were cordially greeted by
Mr.. Brady, Mr. Weis, Mr.. Williams,
Mr.. Salter, Mr.. w. j. Heal, Mr.. Mum,
Mr.. Refs, Mr.. Webber, and many
other old acquaintance. Being out on
a sort of rowing commission, we took q
sleigh ride around the country, to the
Seven-mile House, Parker town, and in
fact every where within radious of
10 or 10 miles, and though the ground
was covered so deep in snow as to pre-
vent our taking stock of the farms and
crops, yet we cannot speak too highly of
the unanimous good will and lindnesses
evinced toward us by farmers where
ever we went To look for farm to
let around here, would be to ''look for q
needle in bundle of hay" while in
point of value, the land even on the
prairie is commanding up to 800 an
acre, thus showing to what perfection
farming is here carried on. Notwith-
standing the weather was so cold dur
ing our trip, we were successful in re-
newing many interesting old associa-
tions, and returned with even increased
attachment towards this prosperous city
and its genial and enterprising com
munity.

APlensant Sleiph Ride.

On Tuesday evening quite pleasant
little party from our city left about 7:3O
for moonlight sleigh ride to Green
Springs. Here they found Finch's ho-
tel besieged with an "Old Folks Dane
ing Party" from Clyde, and they pro
ceeded to the latter city, calling at the
Nichols Hotel. Being late, the cooks
aud culinery maids had retired-hence
refreshments were not obtainable. Still
the oorteous and gentlemanly clerk of
that famous house secured elsewhere a
a capital repast of oysters for the whole
party, who left on their return trip
about IL o'clock, thus terminating a
most enjoyable evening.

There are few Of our readers in San
dusly county, who are not acquainted
with the name Of Mr.. Annual Bissonet,
of French dissent, farmer residing at
Mud Creek, and who will not learn with
sympathy and regret Of his very sudden
death, which transpired on Saturday
evening last. The old gentleman was
some 67 years of age, and being a wid-
over, resided with his two daughters.
Having visited neighbor on the eve
ming in question, he returned home a
little before ten o'clock, when his
daughters at once retired Almost inn
mediately following their example, ap-
parantly in excellent health, he first
called TO them up stairs, reminding
them to rise early next morning, in or
der that they might all go to a church
meeting at Port Clinton. Only few
minutes had elapsed when his daughters
heard him fall heavily on the floor.
They ran down to his room and there
discovered the unfortunate gentleman
undressed and laying dead on the floor.
1t is generally supposed he succumbed
to heart disease, though he showed little
or no symptoms of the complaint in
life.

POISONED TO DEATH.

A healthy liver secretes each day
about two and half pounds of bile,
which contains a great amount of waste
material taken f1om the blood. When
the liver becomes torpid or congested, it
fails to eliminate this vast amount ofnox-
ious substance, which, therefore, re-
mains to poison the blood and be con
veyed to every part of the system. What
must be the condition Of the blood when
it is receiving and retaining each day
two and half pounds of poisonl Ma
ture tries to work off this poison through
other channels and organs-the kidneys,
lungs, skin, ETC.. but these organs be-
come oVertaxed in performing this labor,
in addition to their natural functions,
and cannot long Withstand the pressure,
but become variously diseased.
The brain, which is the great electri-
cal center of all vitality, is unduly stim-
ulated by the unhealthy blood which
passes to it from the heart, and it fails to
perform its office healthfully. Hence
the symptoms of bile poisoning, which
are dullness, headache, incapacity to
keep themind on any, subject, impairment
of memory, dizzy. sleepy or nervous
feeling, gloomy forebodings and irrita-
bility of temper. The BLOOD ITSELF
being diseased, as it forms the sweat up
on the surface of the skin, is so irritating
and poisonous that it produces discolor-
ed brown spots, pimples blotches and
other eruptions, sores, boils, carbunclea
and scrofulous trlmors. The stomach,
bowels, and other organs spoken of, can
not escape becoming affected sooner or
later, and costiveness, piles, dropsy, dys-
pepsia, diarrhea, female weakness, and
many other forms of chronic disease, are
among the necessary results. As rem
edy for all these manifestations of dis.
ease, DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery with small daily doses of his
Pleasant Purgative Pellets are positively
unequalled. By them the liver and
stomach are changed to an active and
healthy state, the appetite regulated anc
restored, the blood and secretions
thoroughly purified and enriched, anC
the whole system renovated and built
up anew. Sold by all first-class drug
gists and dealers in medicine.

A Soldier of 1s12.

On Monday last we met o. L. Bart
lett, Esq, attorney and Mayor Of Green
Spring, at theclerk's Office, in the Court
house, where he was exercising his best
Offices to secure an increase of pay for
an aged pensioner named William Sch
berell, of Ballville, better known as IN
Gle William, who served during the war
of 1912 to its close, and was discharged
from the service on account of wounds
received in sortie by the British, on
Fort Erie. The old man isnow 80 years
Of age and very inirm-has a wife nine
years his Junior, andalone depends upon
his pension for their support. He still
possesses . retentiye memory, and it is
interesting 10 hear him narrate how he
carried an ounce Of English lead in his
hip two years, two months, eleven days
and six hours before it was extracted, as
also piece Of a buckle carried in with
ii, but which was probed out seven days
before the bullet; both trophies he
still retains. He is native Of Iancas-
ter, Pennsylvania, and has brought up
q family Of twelve children.
