Perhaps no man ever suffered more fol-
so many years than did DR.. Charles b. Reed

ing the last a years of his life he endured
almost every agony In 1864 he was pros
trated with dysentery, Sclatca, followed.
For eight years he suffered intensely from
this disease until in 1872 cerebral spinal
meningitis ensued. In 1873 a rash broke
out on his body and communicated To his
eyes, adding blindness to his other allie
tons. He had a slight muscular power in
one OF his shoulders that enabled him 70
ring bell. THAT and the ability 10 nod
his head were all that he could do for him
self. His jaws were so firmly set that
only liquid food could be gwen him and
that with difficulty. About "A year ago the
decay of his teeth and the exposure OF the
nerves added To his agony, TIL "A dentist
ext racted the front teeth IN order TO reach
those that were affected and Kill the pal
plating nerves For - hours before he
died DR. Reed was free from pain for the
first time in "A long years.

Farm Outlook Better than 30 Years Ag,
lverm ont Cor. N. L. Farmerl

| ERIN mt Cor. \. l.. Farmer.
There never was a better time to farm
it' in Vermont than the present. Ev-
erything, excepting wool, brings a good
price, and wool cannot always remain
where it Is. The extremely low price of
the farms makes it a good time to buy.
Farms that 20 years ago brought $4,000
now 90 hard for four; and those THAT
brOugh five aud six will hardly bring
two now. 80 and 60 years ago farmers
ran in debt tor their farms and paid for
them they certainly can do 1t now. The
one draw back is the price of labor, which
has nearly doubled, yet il Is in part OH
set by the labor-saying machines. The
mower, horse rake, tedder, reaper, sowing
planting machines, were unknown 30
wears ago What would the farmers now
think if they had got TO do their work by
main strength as 50 yeas ago, and sell
their produce as it was sold then-Outter
from 10 to II cts a pound, cheese cts.
per pound, eggs 5 to II cts. per dozen
the only market they had for their pOta-
toes was at the starch factOrier where
they brought from 10 to IL cts. per bush
Ell. Poultry now brings more than double.
Wood brought then from 81 TO Sl.5O per
cord; now from - TO S., and all kinds of
timber and lumber in the same proper
ton. Besides, what the farmer has TO
sell now brings the cash 80 years ago it
was mostly store pay, and what they had
10 buy then cost double what 1t does now,
\ ct with all these great advantages in
favor of the farmers at the present time,
in Vermont farming is not held in AS high
in the high price of labor, the low price OF
farms, and the fact that many of the back
farms that once supported large families
are now abandoned,

A Meek Mans Inheritance.

From the Brockport On. v Democrat n
A letter from Nichols, in this State says,
that a man living in that section is the
father Of 80 children. He is said to be
very meek and quiet man, and has manag-
ed thus far to struggle along with his "in-
FAINT industry" without any protection.
If the prophecy that the "meek shall in.
herit the earth" is not fulfilled, it will not
be the fault of the meek man in Nichols.
