Municipal Elections.
yIIIRRIDGE.


1t was the largest gathering Of the towns
voters at our annual town meeting here
Monday. March 2. that was ever known.
Last year trouble arose among the select
men and q second meeting had to he called
This year the people took 1t into their own
hands with the determination that things
should be made definite enough so that q
like trouble could not happen. The check
list was used In the voting for selectmen
which made it very slow work and delayed
the business so much that the meeting was
not completed till Tuesday noon. Officers
elected for the ensuing year as follows:
Observation-Disclosures Wallace.
Clerk-F ". Sawyer.
Selectmen. Assessors and Overseers of
Poor-ls,. Geo. A. Hopkins; I'd, John Z.
Hovey Sd. Joseph c. >trout.
School Supervi>or-J. A. Walling
Treasurer-W. NJ Sawyer.
Auditor Jasper Wyman.
Mt one Republican in office. About the
usual amount of money was raised for usu-
al town affairs. also $1,000 to paw town in
dehtedness; 5000 for Free High school !;
$500 to purchase town clock; $3.50 for
school books, which will make quite an in.
crease in the tax over last year. The Sc
lec'men have commenced their duties har-
moniously and It's very probable that the
little foolish difficulties Of last year will
never occur again. State stealing is not
popular In the end.

Ia GRIPPE IN PITTSBURG.
This Dreaded Disease Makes Its Appearance
Auain.

La grippe is with us again, and this dreadful
disease has already taken a firm grip on many
Of our people. The after effects OF la grippe'
are more to be dreaded than the disease itself
Generally it makes place for pneumonia and
leaves the patient, if he RECEIVERS at ALL in a
very feeble condition, from which many have
not rallied long after the last attack of our
Russian enemy ia grippe" had left us. Sir
Moren Mackenzie highly recommends the
Soden Mineral Pastilles as being the most
effectual remedy for the prevention and cure of
all catarrhal inf1ammatious (of which la grippe
is the most aggravated type) for sore throat,
coughs bronchitis and lung troubles. When
ever you enter from heated room into the
open air during the winter, put one of these
pastilles (troches) into the mouth and you will
surely prevent any attack of the grip. catarrh
or cold. Whenever you suffer from q cold in
the head or catarrh of any form, do not trifie
with yourself, but use them at once.
The genuine Soden Mineral Pastilles must
have the testimonial and signature of Sir
Morel Mackenzie around each box.

She advises all her friends similarly afflicted to
