VIII get q credit of one year on his
own paper and the Cabinet one year,
or for 81 90 we will send the Cabinet
to any of our subscribers who are not
in arrears. The Cabinet sends as a
premium ten packages of flower seeds.
The premiums are worth, at least,
one half the cost of the magazine.
We are sorry that it is necessary
for the protection of society and the
maintenance of law to arraign any
citizen for the habitual breaking of
the law, and we are greatly surprised
that so large a number can be found,
who, for the qualification of appetite,
will ask any man to become a law
breaker, subjecting him to fine and
punishment, and themselves to DIS
grace. There is no particular excuse
for the liquor seller who deliberately
goes into that business, and nobody
plties him for the trouble it brings
him, but that class who patronize him
ought to bear a part of the shame
that comes of such an affair, and they
probably feel it this time. This whole
liquor business is shame, dishonor
and wickedness, and it is about time
that those who care to save the repu-
tatiOn of the town or their own stand
ing in the community, join with 9th
ers in stamping it out.
DR.. F. M. Perry, whose sickness
we mentioned last week, died on
Tuesday morning. He had severe
attack of pneumonia which was COM
plicated with a liver difficulty, and
medicine had little effect on him.
DR.. Perry has been in Barton some
thing over twenty years following the
profession of a dentist. Few men
were more skillful in the profession
than he. He was a very obliglng
neighbor, man full of sympathy,
kindness and generosity and best
loved among those who knew him
best. His wife, now in very feeble
health, will, it is reported, go to
Bellows Falls to reside with friends.
She has the sympathy of many friends
in her great Affections. The funeral
services were attended Thursday at
his late residence, Rev. S. S. Brig
ham officiating. Mrs. Perry desires
to thank all the friends and neighbors
who so kindly ministered to the wants
Of the deceased in his sickness, and
to all whose kindness she has shared
in her bereavement.
