A Horse and a Jar Of Butter in a
Well.
[Pittsfield Advertiser. ;,

lPittSheld Advertiser
There was some excitement in West Pitts
field one day last week, caused by horse
falling into well. Incredible as it may
seem it is nevertheless true, land was pitiful
sight for those who witnessed it. 1t hap
pened in this way: Mr.. Smell started for the
village, and on his way drove into II. n
Merrill's door yard. While waiting to see
Henry, his horse, young, spirited ANIMAL
became uneasy, his master turned him to
one side. when the thill. which was broken
off at the end. pricked his shoulder and
caused him to jump on to the planks Of the
we'll. His corks were sharp, and the planks
being loose he slipped, and in spite of all the
two men and several of the fair sex could do
the horse went down, heels first, leaving the
carriage of course; down fifteen feet, only
two feet of water being in the well. Men
and boys were summoned from all directions.
A continuance was made Of poles or anything
be on the premises, the difficult task was be-
gun by Henry, who was let down by a rope,
and held while he securely fastened rope
around the horse, back of his shoulders. He
was carefully raised from the well, and to
the surprise of all was found to be none the
worse for his perilous adventure, with the
exception of a few bruises, In this case as
in others is shown what imagination Will do.
While several were looking down at the
horse. one says, "he has torn off one OF his
feet,' another says, "sure enough, so he has,
poor thing" The fact proved to be ball Of
butter floating on the water, Mrs. Merrill
having jar of butter fastened by rope in
the well to keep it cool.

PROPOSED SUMMER RESORT.
Beautiful Scenery, HeaIthfuI Locality
and Mineral Water the Attraction.

Twelve years ago, during severe drought,
there was discovered in North Raymond a
spring Of very pure water. 1t is situated on
a high elevation, in basin in a ledge, nearly
level with the surface of the ground. The
spring, which is owned by Charles E. Small,
is located five miles from the famed Poland
Spring, six miles from the Maine Central
and Grand Trunk railroads at New Glouces-
ter, three mileslfrom Shaker Village, twenty
three miles from Portland and forty-five rods
from the public thoroughfare. Its flow never
ceases. Neither wet nor dry weather affects
1t, and it Is today as nature left it.
The view from the elevation ON which it is
situated is one worth going long distance
to witness. The locality is very healthful
one, and would make delightful summer
resort. In fact, Massachusetts parties are
already much interested in this spring, and
are anxious for Mr.. Small to allow them to
form stock company and erect $1,000 hotel
on the spot. A house win be put over the
spring this fall. the grounds graded, and 9TH
er improvements made. The water will be
put upon the market next season and the
spring opened to the public.
This spring is known as the Raymond Min
eral Spring, and so far as the excellence of
the water is concerned the following is a
high recommendation:

2925 grains. This Is very pure spring water in
every respect. Respectfully.

a WARNING.

The modes of deaths approach are various, and
statistics show concluswely that more persons die
from DISEASES of the Throat and Lungs than any
other. 1t is probable that everyone, without ex-
ception, receives vast numbers of Tubercle Germs
into the system, and where these germs fall upon
suitable soil they start into life and develop, at
first slowly and is shown by slight tickling sem
sation in the throat, and if allowed to continue
their rayages they extend to the lungs, producing
Consumption, and to the head, causing Catarrh.
Now all this is dangerous, and If allowed to pro-
coed will, in time, cause DEATH At the onset you
must act with promptness; allowing cold to go
without attention is dangerous, and may lose you
your life AS soon as you feel that something is
