offset any apparent advantage of
such work. Our early impressions
were brought to mind by little in
cident that took place last Sabbath.
While M. H. Gibson's teams were
drawing wood to the brick kiln, one
of the teams when going down the
hill west Of the kiln, broke through
the guard on the bank. and team,

sion, spraining the ankle Of the driv-
er and doing considerable damage to

Two Houses and a Barn Burned.

Two Houses ana a Barn burned.
The dwelling house and barn OF
Mrs. Eliza Jameson were burned on
Monday night about eleven O'Clock
the family barely escaping. Every
thing was burned but the organ and
a few articles, the loss including $50
cash in the cupboard. The fire soon
communicated to the Armstrong
block, eight feet distant, and that
was soon wrapped in flames. 1t was
occupied by John Taylor Woodward,
who saved most of his goods. Here
the fire was stayed by the untiring
exertion of the inhabitants, though
others carried out their goods. E. g..
Metcalf suffered the most from the
effects of the fire; the exposed end OF
his dwelling across the street was
scorched and blistered. and nearly
every light of glass broken. E. n.
Dunbar got off with good scare.
Several of our fire fighters got quite
exhausted with heat and work on
the roof of E. n. Dunbar's ell and
barn. P. 7. Hawkins had to be car
ried home, and A. w Merrill blistered
his neck and body in several places.
We were thankful that the fire was
stopped where it was, as the gr1st
mill was in imminent danger, and
with it the saw-mill and sash shop
of George Merrill & Son, and the
sparks few thick around 6. w.
Cooks dwelling. Mrs. Jameson has
the sympathy of the community,
who will render all the assistance
they can.
Last Wednesdays party at Lake

Succeeding Senator Edmunds.

Evidently the question, if there is
one, turns upon the point whether
prospective vacancy is a vacancy.
Mr.. Edmunds' resignation does not
take effect till November. 1t would
seem to be tolerably clear that till it
takes effect, there is no vacancy. If
the president was to call the senate
together in October, Mr.. Edmunds
would be in his seat and a much en-
titled to his vote as any senator. If
he should conclude to withdraw his
resignation at any time before it
takes effect, no vacancy would occur;
and any man who in the mean time
should have been appointed or elect
ed by the legislature would find
himself a quite superfuous senator.
The common sense view of the case,
accordingly, would seem to be that
it would not be best to either appoint
or elect a senator till the vacancy
has actually occurred.-[ Burlington

The Wonderful Increase of Cancer.

The Wonderful Increase of Cancer.
Cancer is a disease concerning which
the average person is very ignorant, and
even our most skilled physicians admit
that it's cure battles their skill. The an
cient torturous cutting with the knife
was in a measure superseded by the
even more painful. and no more effective
! plaster; both have now been displaced
by a remedy extracted from nature s
bountiful store. and it remained for Dr.
Mason to persuade her to yield this
boon for the relief of the terrible sufferers
from this most dreaded of all diseases.
1t cost him years of study, research, and
labor to obtain this result. but he has
been amply rewarded by the blessings
bestowed upon him by those he has ben
Gifted.
He has effected cures in every state in
the Union, and large number in Cana
da. where he now has hundreds of pa
tients under treatment.
In our own state, and even in our i'm
mediate vicinity we see the wonderful eff
feet Of his remedy, and we publish below
a letter from lady residing in North
Craftsbury, which will be of much inter
est to all to read who in the least doubt
the efficacy of the treatment.
This is only sample of the hundreds
in his possession, thus making the testi-
mony indisputable.

to you for your Vegetable Cancer Cure,
and the wonderful cure it has made for
me. For eighteen years there was hard
bunch in my left breast. | suffered great
" with it. The growth was slow but
sure. Over year ago it began growing
more rapidly and taking my strength. so
that in January, 1890, 1 could do no
work, and the bunch was as large as a
quart bowl. heard Of your Vegetable
Cancer Cure and decided to try it. for l
did not believe in knife or plaster. l
commenced the medicine soon after. My
cancer also broke out at the same time,
and expected to be in my grave in three
months time; but / very soon began to
gain strength; my breast panied me less,
and the bunch gradually grew less, and
is now entirely gone, and all trouble re-
moved. / also had serious uterine
trouble for years. Three years agoI was
treated for 1t by skillful physician, and
pronounced cured; but in few months
the trouble returned, and in a much
worse form than before. My suffering
was terrible and l had great fears of be-
coming insane. After taking your Vege-
table Cancer Cure six months | was en-
tirely relieved OF this tumor. 1t was as
large around as tea cup, and felt as
hard as piece of wood. l am now able
