soon heard a roaring sound and found his
bed in flames. He reused the family and put
out the fire, but not until the bed was al
most entirely consumed. IL was very
narrow escape.
John Porter, a respected man of about
80 years of age who lived near the Center,
was struck by falling tree on Friday
afternoon and so injured that he survived
but few hours. He went TO the woods
alone to fall some timber for wood, but
not returning at dark his wife sent
neighbor after him and found him crushed
beneath II tree. He was taken To the
house, but his skull was fractured and he
died at O'Clock. 1t is supposed he fell
the tree at about 3 o'clock i'm the after
noon. He was Christian man and we
are reminded of the scripture, "Say We
to the righteous, it shall he well with
him." He leaves a wife and an infant
child.
John Anderson of Craftsbury, while
drawing load of hay from Mackville
toward Craftshury had his load struck
by the noon train from the west at the
very dangerous crossing just below the
village, and was thrown several rods
striking on the side of the track in the
snow. The train did not stop and no.
body came to the rescue. After a while
Mr.. Anderson, who had been rendered
unconscious, so came to himself that he
crawled out OF the snow and was found
and carried to neighboring house
DR.. Darling was called and found his
patient in very dangerous condition.
At this writing he is seemingly more
comfortable and may survive. 1t IL re-
ported that the train did not whis-
tie, and it is, at least, a strange thing

or if they saw it, that they did not 90

What is ScrOfuIa

1t is that impurity in the blood. which, accumu
lating in the glands of the neck, produces UNI
slightly Jumps or swellings; which causes painful
running sores on the arms, legs, or feet; which
developes ulcers in the eyes, ears, nose, often
causing blindness deafness; which is the origin
of pimples, cancerous growths, or many other
manifestations usually ascribed to humors"
1t is more formidable enemy than consumption
cancer alone, for serofula combines the worst
possible features of both. Being the most ancient
1t is the most general Of all diseases OF affections,
Cor very few persons are entirely free from IL.
How can it be cured ? BY taking Hoods Sarsa-
parilla, which, by the cures il has accomplished,
often when other medicines have failed. has
proven itself to be potent and peculiar medicine
for this disease For all affections Of the blood
Hoods Sarsaparilla is unequalled, and some of the
cures it has effected are really wonderful. II YOU
suffer from scrofula in any Of its various forms,
be sure to give Hoods. sarsaPaFilla trial.
